When I saw that L'Oreal were coming out with the Infallible Matte Lip Paints, a true matte line of their original lip paints, I couldn't wait to get my hands on them! For months I had seen them all over my favorite UK blogger's sites, but I had no idea if they would ever be released here. Finally a couple months ago they began popping up in various stories and then I spotted them on Ulta.com and couldn't pass up trying the entire line. Brand claims: Lacquer up lips in high impact liquid ...

Anastasia Beverly Hills Moonchild Glow Kit – Swatches & Review + Giveaway
Remember me?! I’m so sorry I’ve neglected the blog, I’ve just really been focused on The Lipstick Diaries these past few months! If you didn’t know already I run an Instagram where I do daily lipstick swatches and reviews! It’s been so much fun and I recently passed 10k followers! But I have missed the blog and I really want to try and bring the two together. I’m thinking of posting more in-depth lipstick reviews, focusing on the packaging, the claims of a line, etc. I’ve even included a page ...
New NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream Shades – Review & Swatches
I’ve been a big fan of the NYX Soft Matte Lip Creams for some time now, I have most of the old shades. So when I heard they were releasing 12 new colors I couldn’t wait to get my hands on them.

Nearly something for everyone's taste! The new shades as described on NYX's site are: Dubai - medium cool ...

Another day, another liquid lipstick. It seems as if every brand is bringing out their version of a liquid lipstick and I’m not complaining! When Tarte announced their new Tarteist Lip Paint I was so excited to try them out, they're one of my favorite brands. They are $20 each and contain concentrated mineral pigments which are supposed to help soften and nourish the lips while you’re wearing them. There’s a pretty decent shade range, from lighter nudes to a bright purple. Each shade also has a ...
Marc Jacobs The Sofia – Five Piece Lip Crème Collection – Review & Swatches
I originally planned on having this post up before Christmas, but time got the better of me. So now unfortunately this set is no longer available at Sephora. But I figured since you can still get the full sizes of each shade I might as well post it! The Sofia - Five Piece Lip Crème Collection was the perfect opportunity to try out multiple shades without spending an arm and a leg. I really hope he does another lip set in the future. The set contains a patent leather pouch with five ...
The Lipstick Diaries: Maybelline Color Blur Lipstick
A few months ago I picked up one of the Maybelline Color Blur Lipsticks while browsing Bed Bath & Beyond. For some reason they always seem to have new makeup releases before anywhere else around here. Then finally they were released at Ulta and on a buy one get one half off deal so of course I had to pick up two more! The formula is really lovely. They glide on without any tugging on the lips and the small applicator actually makes it quite easy to control. They have a matte finish and ...
