Problem Product: NYC City Proof Twist Crayon


So here yet again and really it's not even the second time it's just the second time I say down to type up a blog about it. I bought the new NYC lip products the City Proof Twistable Lip Color Crayons super long name first of all and then of course it doesn't live up to its claims. First off its got the worst fake bubblegum scent ever! It smells soo bad that I can't bare to keep it on and it actually turns my stomach. It's just too much fragrance. Then it's greasy, slippery and has almost a lip tint effect but can be build able.why you would build up that greasy lip color I don't know because it feels imediately like a 1$ cheap waxy lipstick. Waxy is the word and it melted on me even though the high temperature for this week was 35 F. So long story short they are aweful, in my swatches they will look more opaque but that's because they melted. I suggest wearing them as cream cheek colors and not on your lips I think they will be great cheek products because they are just so uncomfortable on the lips. I did get a new lipstick from them called Expert Wear Lip Colors, these aren't bad and some colors ( that my sister bought) were great! But I just don't think the crayons are good lip products I think they are better for your face, and possibly they were cheek sticks they decided to market as lip colors.

Estee Lauder Gilded Rose Set

Bought these a while ago but I am just posting these as a review. These are a set of eyeshadows and marbleized shimmer powder. The eyeshadows come gilded but the gold is not incorporated into the shadows. These are satin colors one light baby pink, a magenta pink, a peachy tan pink, and the fourth is a tawny rose color. Super close to matte powders and a little disappointing because the "rose gold" overlay comes right off with one swipe. The colors are very nice though even if the overlay goes away. The marble shimmer powder feels good on my skin but as I have some tan left on my skin the rose blends a little bit too much. So a fair skin or yellowed skin will really benefit from the color in the marble if you want to use it as a blush. Otherwise the shimmer looks good as a general highlight. I did not buy both at the same time I got them from my local CCO for around 16.00 a piece. Compared to retail Estee Lauder prices this is very cheap. I wished there was a rose gold match...

Face of the day 8/30/2012

Loreal color Riche in rose tafetta NYC cream stick blush - mauvin uptown Sonia Kashuk quad in purple haze Maybelline lash stiletto black Loreal infallible liner Chanel mat lumier foundation Revlon photoready concealer Black Radiance powder foundation Love the Chanel lumier line this is the full matte foundation it is very soft and goes on sheer but you can build up the coverage. I was wondering if it wa sheer because it was the first time I used it or if it will stay sheer? The counter attendant used the same foundation (I think) and it was atleast medium but I'll keep using it so that I can find out.
