100% Pure Fruit Pigmented Pot Rouge in Posey, $15 USD
100% Pure Fruit Pigmented Pot Rouge in Posey, swatch
Love the small packaging and super crazy pigmentation of this blush. A little goes a long way 'cause it's BRIGHT. Stays on my oily skin! Win!
LB Rating: A
BareMinerals High Shine Eyecolor, $16 USD each
BareMinerals High Shine Eyecolor swatches in Glisten (L) & Moonshine (R)
LOVE. I have nothing but pure love for these eye shadows! The name says it all, they're very shiney and pigmented. Quality stuff!
LB Rating: A
BareMinerals Lip Gloss
BareMinerals Lip Gloss swatch
I have no idea what the name of this lip gloss is 'cause the name scatched off. Doesn't really matter, though, since it's not all that great. The color is pretty, but it smells very "lipstick-ish" and doesn't last long on the lips at all. Meh.
LB Rating: D
Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips Eye Candy Palette in Green Eyes, $12 USD
Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips Eye Candy Palette in Green Eyes swatches
Great colors, inexpensive, could be more pigmented. But, hey, pretty good for drugstore!
LB Rating: B
Laura Mercier Shimmer Block in Peach Mosiac, $38 USD
Laura Mercier Shimmer Block in Peach Mosaic, swatched indiviually (from left) and blended together
This highlighter is SO pretty! The shimmer is very subtle and gives cheeks a natural-looking glow without screaming sparkle. It also looks great as eye shadow! The price is way too high for what it is though.
LB Rating: B+ (too pricey!)
What do you think? Have you tried any these products?
Disclosure: Some products were bought by myself and some were given to me as gifts.
