Brand New EOS Visibly Soft Lip Balm Review

I saw this today at Target and I immediately purchased it! Maybe it's because I am a self proclaimed lip product junkie or just because of the adorable packaging! But nonetheless I am constantly reaching for something to moisturize my lips, especially in the fall and winter. So, I was pleasantly surprised to see that EOS had came out with a brand new formula.

EOS Visibly Soft Lip Blame in Coconut Milk, .25 Oz,$2.99

Personally, I love this more than the originals. It doesn't have that waxy film like the others and it goes on SO smooth! The smell is freaking fantastic! I've had it for 4 hours and I'm already in love.

EOS says that they are 99% natural, petrolatum-free, paraban-free, gluten-free and phthalate-free. Definitely check this out! They also come in the flavor Vanilla Mint.

It's Electric! Boogie Woogie, Woogie!

Urban Decay has done it again with this ultra bright eye shadow pressed pigment palette. I can't be the only one who thinks of the "Electric Slide" when I hear the name! Electric it is! Now let me say that I am a neutral gal. I love my tans, browns, whites and blacks. But every now and again you want to stand out. 

Urban Decay Electric Palette $49

This palette has 10 shades that are super bright. Two of the shades are repeats in Urban Decay's line, Revolt and Chaos. The other 8 are brand new! All shades have great color payoff and blend beautifully! Every shade is .04 oz and it also comes with a dual ended brush. The brush is very pretty, it is black with purple ends. I have used it multiple times and it works wonderfully.

Top Left to Right: Revolt, Gonzo, Slowburn, Savage, Fringe
Bottom Left to Right: Chaos, Jilted, Urban, Freak, Thrash

Revolt: Bright metallic silver shimmer with silver glitter. This is the only one I kinda have a problem with. It is a gorgeous metallic but the fall out is pretty bad. I have noticed that if I pat it on more than rub it on it does help. Just be sure to do your eyes before your foundation if you use this color.

Gonzo: Bright turquoise matte with floating tonal pearl. 

Slowburn:  Bright red-orange matte with floating pearl. This color is a pain to get off! The payoff is awesome but it stains like crazy. This would be another one that you want to put on before foundation only because if you do have some fall out it will be a pain to fix.

Savage: Bright hot pink matte. Also stains like Slowburn but not nearly as bad. I also noticed that this is a little powdery.

Fringe: Bright metallic teal.

Chaos: Bright blue matte with floating tonal pearl. 

Jilted: Bright metallic fuchsia with blue shift.

Urban: Bright metallic purple.

Freak: Bright green with gold shift.

Thrash: Bright lime green matte with floating gold pearl.

Left to right: Revolt, Gonzo, Slowburn, Savage, Fringe, Chaos, Jilted, Urban, Freak, Thrash.
I used Urban Decay's Primer Potion underneath every color.

Beware if you purchase this palette that there is a warning on the back that reads, "Warning: Slowburn, Savage, Jilted, and Urban are not intended for the immediate eye area." I have used all of them on my eye area given they are pigments and I didn't have any kind of problem. But I have heard some people say that Slowburn irritated them.

Overall I really love this! I think it is a fabulous palette and it is definitely something I would repurchase! Here is one look that I have created using Electric.

I used Chaos on my lid and lower lash line and Jilted in my crease. I blended the two together to create a purple in the middle. I wore it all day at work and through the night and it did not budge! 

Well that is all for today! Please take a moment to subscribe and like me on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/SummertimeBeauty! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

My Favorite Mascara Combination

Happy Earth day!!

Ever have those days that you don't want to wear a full face of make-up but you still want a touch of glamour? That's how I felt this week morning. So instead of busting out the full drawer of products, I only use four. Yup you heard me right, FOUR! For my face I use the L'Oreal Youth Code Texture Perfector Pore Vanisher ($20) to do exactly what the name says it will do, conceal those pores! Then I start on my eyes.

No product

It Cosmetics recently came out with their Tightline mascara. You guys this thing has became a holy grail! I use this to coat my upper lashes and lash line.

It Cosmetics Tightline $24

I love that I can use it and look like I actually tightlined my upper lash line. It takes out that step that I would normally need to do to get the same effect. Although it is a little more subtle. 

With It Cosmetics Tightline Mascara (upper lashes only)

After I am done with my top lashes I use Benefits They're Real Mascara on the top and bottom lashes.

Benefit's They're Real $23 (full size)

In my opinion, it has one of the coolest wands I have ever seen. Right now I only have a sample size and it has lasted me forever! Here is my completed eye look.

Benefit's They're Real added to top and bottom lashes

And NOW I can conquer the world! OK maybe that's slightly extreme. But slap a little mascara on this girl and I feel like I can do all things! The last product that goes on is just a touch of lip gloss. And that's it! You are now good to go!

Too Faced The Chocolate Bar Palette Review

Too Faced The Chocolate Bar Palette $49

 Today we are looking at the new palette from Too Faced, The Chocolate Bar! At first glance, this looks like something straight out of Willy Wonka's chocolate factory! Just imagine opening it and finding that glorious golden ticket. Instead, you get 16 AWESOME shadows that smell like the chocolate factory itself.

Isn't she a beauty!

The packaging is tin and closes with magnets. It is very sturdy! I can turn it upside down and shake this bad boy and it is not going to open. There are no extras, such as a liner, brush, or primer that come with this but it is  wonderful all by itself. Now enough of the outside! Let's take a peek inside.

Out of the 16 shades there are 6 mattes and 10 shimmer. Most are neutral shades while a few are pops of color. All shades blend great and have wonderful payoff. A few of my favorite colors are Salted Caramel (my most favorite transition shade), Candied Violet and Cherry Cordial. The primer I used today is Urban Decay's Eyeshadow Primer Potion.
