Deja vu? Nope, but close!
Yes, yes, yes…here is another Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter!
Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter Red Velvet was one of the shades I wanted the most when I first caught wind of these bad boys.
The reason? I don’t wear red lipstick and prefer gloss, but I wanted to experiment with one. A pigmented lip butter seemed like a happy middle of the road, so I pounced on it.
Did you ever have an aunt who pinched your cheeks?
None of mine ever did that. (Thank goodness!)
And I wonder how that gesture even developed. Who was the wise guy who thought that we should pinch someone’s cheeks?
The only pinching I do is with pennies. I press them so hard that they split into two. 
And one way to get more bang for your buck is with blushes by NYX. That brand is so good about providing a lot of colourful options for prices that don’t make your piggy bank squeal louder than even coming face-to-face with a strip of bacon!
The NYX Powder Blush Pinched is one that really got my attention because it’s demure and catches the light. I thought that this would be an easy-to-wear shade. But was it? Dun dun dun!
Okay, okay…so I said before that after getting 3 of the Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butters that I wasn’t interested in any of the other colours.
A $4.99 CAD sale at Rexall changed my mind. Hahahahaha! (Hypocrite much? Oh boy…)
I picked up a few additional shades. Among them was Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter Strawberry Shortcake!
Like I’ve said before – these Revlon Lip Butters are like potato chips. You can’t just have one. And there are so many wearable shades…ahhhhh!
There are chemicals everywhere – in your food, in your fragrances, and in your cosmetics.
While it isn’t realistic to believe you can avoid chemicals and fillers completely, picking more natural products in the makeup aisle can make a difference.
I tried the Yes to Carrots Color Balm Soft Plum. It’s a lightly tinted lip balm that’s 99% natural and free of Petroleum, SLS, and Paraben. It’s also cruelty-free.
Since the Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butters are all the rage now, I was really curious to experiment and see how this Yes to Carrots Color Balm stacked up.
Did one K.O. the other in beauty boxing? You’re about to find out!
Wet n Wild Color Icon On Cloud Nine is one of the many Wet n Wild Color Icon eye-shadow trios that beauty lovers talked about since hitting the market. Not only do these shadows offer great pigmentation, but the price is right, Bob Barker!
In Canada, I think these are mainly available at Wal-Mart. In the States, there are a few drugstores where you can find them at.
Since I rarely shop at Wal-Mart, I probably wouldn’t have been able to try it out if not for my thoughtful friend, Carmela from Polished Indulgence! (Thank you!) We did a little swap of sorts quite some time ago, and it was a lot of fun! 
You know, this is the first Wet n Wild product that I’ve used since high school. The brand really has come a long way since then.
Before, I used to buy their $0.99 eyeliners and nail polishes. They were okay, but nothing to write home about. (Although, there was this one dark blue polish I used to put silver glitter on top of, and it looked like a starry night sky. I loved it so much!)
Today, the brand boasts fantastic shadows that perform surprisingly well when compared to their pricier competitors.
