Hello there lovelies. This is a beauty review. I bought three new products that I have tried and love. This is my face with all three products on (with liquid liner and mascara.) Can’t really tell if the highlighter shows up here but it’s pretty.

First is the Lime Crime Pink Velvetine Lip Stain. I found this brand through Instagram and loved the punchy colors and vegan products. This liquid to matte stain caught my eye and since I’ve been looking for a bright pink lip color I thought this was perfect. It’s got a felt applicator and it’s pretty precise. Since it’s liquid goes on easily and dries to a beautiful matte finish. I can actually kiss my BF with this on without smearing my lipstick on him :o) The only issue is that my lips are actually two different colors. My top lip is a darker shade so it shows up a bit darker. Though I struggle with this issue with most lipsticks so it’s no biggie.

The second product is the Anatasia Beverly Hills. It’s her new Dipbrow Pomade. It’s supposed to be waterproof and great for oily skin. My skin tends to be on the combo and oily side especially in the summer. Hopefully I can use this at the beach and the pool when summer rolls around! I bought mine in dark brown since I wear the medium brown color in her pencil form. It’s still a little light for my taste (since I have jet-black hair) and I’m so glad I didn’t get the chocolate color which is warmer. I think I’ll keep it until I try on the ebony but it’ll probably be too dark. I like the pomade texture and the way it looks on. It’s easier to use the pomade to get my arches right then a pencil surprisingly and I’ve always been a pencil girl. Oh, a little bit goes a long way so pick up a a minimal amount of the product with your brush. I used a Shu Uemura eyebrow brush.

Lastly, I saw this product on a couple different blogs and thought I’d give it a try. It’s TopShop’s Crescent Moon Highlighter. I was using MAC’s Mineralize SkinFinish and it’s nice but I wanted less glitter and more of a pearlescent glow. This is a great product – it doesn’t come with a brush or a mirror but the color is really pretty and not glittery. I almost didn’t want to like it because TopShop had made my shit-list a few months ago when they lost my package of fantastic sale items. But this may make up for it. Haha.
