JLB Cosmetics Vamp Your World Lipsticks

Hey all! So I was wandering around Ross on Black Friday and came across a table loaded with beauty products. This set of lipsticks immediately caught my eye. It is from JLB Cosmetics and it is the Vamp Your World Couture Lipsticks.

 

Of course what I noticed right off the back is that they look like they are ripping off Kat Von D lipstick packaging. But you know what? I don't really care! I've been wanting some vampy colors like these but didn't want to pay a lot for colors that I know I wouldn't wear very often. And this set of 5 lipsticks was only $6.99! That averages out to about $1.40 per lippy. I figured that even if the color wasn't great it was worth the risk for the price. And luckily they turned out to be pretty darn good!

L-R: Orchid, Rebel, Scarlet, Bordeaux, Provacateur

And then I took full pics of each one just for fun.

Scarlet

Bordeaux

Provocateur

These have great color payoff and feel really comfortable on the lips. They have a semi-glossy finish and aren't too thin or slippery. This would have been a great deal at the regular price of $18.00 but for $6.99 they are a steal! If you like colors like this but don't want to spend a lot of money I'd suggest running to Ross quickly.

I hope you are having a great week!

Bonita Tinman's Brew

Hi all! Once again it's been a while. I started a new job a month ago and I've been exhausted. But I had to write a post about this new polish I found a few days ago at Rite Aid. I hadn't been there in a while and was perusing the endcaps of the makeup section when this little beauty caught my eye. It's Tinman's Brew by Bonita.


Tinman's Brew is chock full of multiple colors of glitter, gold shard glitter and a little surprise that I didn't see until I got it outside of the store and into the sun. That was when I saw it... Holy holo Batman! It is full of holographic rainbow goodness. Of course it wasn't sunny today but I was able to capture a bit of it by playing around with the lighting.


I used 3 thin coats for this mani and it applied perfectly. And the BEST part about this polish? It was only $1.49! So if you run across it while perusing Rite Aid I highly recommend that you pick it up.

Have a great week!
