Bite Beauty Luminous Crème Lipstick Duo in Palomino & Violet

So I NEVER go to the Sephora at JCP because it's usually located right in front of Sephora, but today I decided to just walk in and OMG. They have the Sephora Favorites Meet your Match with an OCC lip tar in a nude shade as an exclusive JCP set as an extra! UGH! I wish I had bought mine there =( but oh well, at least they had what I've been looking for =) I had been looking for the Bite Beauty duo with the brighter colors (Palomino & Violet), since my Sephora just had the nude ones, and after hearing about how great Palomino is from Emilynoel83! (I LOVE her & trust her opinion very much!) I tried Palomino as soon as I got it! Soooo creamy and long lasting, I wish they had more duos cause I'm too cheap to pay full price LOL Here are the swatches =)
 



it's so tiny!

My Coral & Peach Lipsticks/Lipglosses

Hey y'all :) Happy late Easter! I did a post on eyeshadow for Spring, now here are some lip colors for Spring/Summer.
Almay Color + Care Lip Balm in Apricot
Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss in Coral Reef (discontinued :(  )
Tarte Lip Tint in Elite (from Sephora Favorites: Meet Your Match set)
Maybelline Color Sensational Whisper in Pin Up Peach
Maybelline Color Sensational Vivid in Shocking Coral
Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter in Peach Parfait
Wet 'n Wild Megashield in It's a Girl
Revlon Super Lustrous lipstick in Coralberry
Revlon Super Lustrous lipstick in Snow Peach (LE Vintage collection)
Elf Mineral Lipgloss in Wild
Laura Geller Color Drenched Lip Gloss (from LE Sugar&Spice Lip Treats set) in Ginger
Rimmel Show Off Lip Lacquer in Luna




So which is my favorite from all of these? Snow Peach! It's beautiful! I love the formula of all these lipsticks/glosses, except the WnW lipstick, it applies patchy and also the Elf lipgloss isn't that pigmented, so I wouldn't recommend that one either. Other than that, hope y'all enjoyed the swatches of some lipsticks/glosses y'all might want to pick up for this spring and summer!

Sephora Favorites: Meet Your Match

Get excited! $25 for 3 mini lippies and 3 mini nail polishes! The exact names of the products are: Deborah Lippman Nail Lacquer in Girls Just Want to Have Fun, Lipsurgence Lip Tint in Elite, Formula X Nail Color in Invincible, Hourglass Cosmetics Extreme Sheen High Shine Lip Gloss in Child, Nails Inc. Devonshire Row Nail Polish, Bite Beauty Lush Fruit Lip Gloss in Strangefruit. I used my 15% discount and just paid $23, so that made this even sweeter, FYI if you don't see it and you checked online and it said they had it at your location the past 24hrs ASK them to check the back! I was looking all around the store and nothing :( but then I asked a worker there and she brought it from the back :) Good thing too, I went to the mall JUST FOR THAT! Totally worth it since I got it, now I'll share the swatches.

Pastel Eyeshadow Palettes


I've seen a lot of tutorials using pastel colors now that it's spring so I decided to pull out a few pastel eyeshadow palettes. I have other palettes with a pastel color or two but I figured I would just focus on some that are mostly pastels. So, anyway now that I've explained all that, let's get on this :)
From left to right I have Wet N Wild Fergie collection "Suburban Jungle" which I believe was LE but I recently got it at Walgreens on sale for around $3, Physician's Formula Pop Color Shimmer Strips for Green eyes, I found it at Ross also recently for around $5, and lastly, Wet n Wild "I'm Feeling Retro" this was recently discontinued but I'm sure they're still out :)


Wet N Wild Fergie collection "Suburban Jungle" Literally took a lot of swatching for the color you can hardly see, pretty disappointing :( They look like pretty colors, so maybe NYX's Milk jumbo pencil will save it.



 Physician's Formula Pop Color Shimmer Strips for Green eyes, really shimmery (as they name implies) and I loveee it. CANNOT wait to use these :) really pigmented, really recommend this palette. Hit up your Ross!

 Wet n Wild "I'm Feeling Retro, good pigmentation, but obviously you can see how frosty they look, so it's hard to use this but I've used the blue on the bottom lash line and it looked alright :)
