I Got To Try Out Mia Mariu Products!

It's times like these when I'm glad I write a blog instead of filming YouTube videos, because I have no I idea how to pronounce the name of the brand I'm telling you about today :)  About a month ago, I was given the chance to play with some of products of my choice from Mia Mariu, a company I had never heard of until now.  Needless to say, I had no idea what to expect but I've finally had the time to really use them so take the jump to take a peek :)

Just Enjoy the Show!: Bare Minerals Light Show Palette

The Bare Minerals Light Show palette is probably the best set I've seen from the company if you're looking to sample several Bare Mineral Ready products at the same time.  They've gone past just the pressed shadows and have also expanded into blushes, bronzers, foundations, highlighters yada yada yada.  The Light Show Palette includes several of these products, plus some other goodies.  Check it out!

My Glam (or Should I Say Ipsy?) Bag September 2012

Right before I received my Glam bag for this month, I got email saying MyGlam was changing their name to Ipsy.  I'm not sure why this is, but according to the message you're still getting the same awesome service just with a different name.  And judging by my bag, I'd have to agree....

Anastasia Hydrafull Gloss Review....When Packaging Gets in the Way

I promised you guys I would go into more detail regarding my opinion on Anastasia's Hydrafull Gloss in my See and Be Seen Kit Review so here we are.  A while ago Sephora had a cool deal going on where Beauty Insiders could get a free, full-sized Hydrafull Gloss with their purchase so I grabbed one and that will be the gloss featured in today's review.  If you want to see swatches of the 2 other glosses already discussed in Plastic & Heiress, click here!

Anastasia See and Be Seen Kit Review

I felt good about purchasing the See and Be Seen Kit from Anastasia because I've never bought any Anastasia product before and I love to experiment.  For no particular reason I fully expected to love this kit and was anxious to play with it.  But now, having tried it, this wasn't one of my more satisfying purchases.  Keep reading to find out why and for some swatches!

Lorac Unzipped: The Nude Collection Review

Despite my ever growing collection of nude/naked/natural/neutral shadows due to recent trends, I've really been going back and forth over whether to buy the Lorac Unzipped palette.  Having both the Urban Decay Naked Palette and theBalm Nude Tude Palette, I've been reluctant to fork over another $40 for the same type of product I already have a couple times over.  So when Hautelook hosted a Lorac sale a couple of months ago I was able to compromise with myself:  instead of buying the big $40 palette, I bought the Unzipped Nude Collection set for only $20!

Avon Supershock Liquid Lip Shine: It's Not the Size that Counts...Or is it?

Top to Bottom:  Lilac Attack, Tickled Pink, Popsicle, Pink Indulgence

These Avon Supershock Liquid Lip Shines are some big mamma-jamma's!  For whatever reason I just LOVE oversized makeup products and these glosses do it for me.  Of course, once I get over the initial awe the question comes back to:  Is this a good product?  Find out after the jump!

NYX Mega Shine Lip Glosses: A Love Affair Part 2

Continuing on to Part 2 of my NYX Mega Shine Lip Gloss review, today I'm giving swatches of the rest of my collection and a final review at the end.  And if you haven't already, check out Part 1 here!

NYX Mega Shine Lip Glosses: A Love Affair Part 1

There aren't too many products I would consider to be my all-time favorite, so much so that I don't foresee a chance in the future that I it may not be my favorite any longer.  In fact, there is only one such product for me:  NYX Mega Shine Lip Glosses.  I'm very picky when it comes to glosses.  They can't be sticky at all and I want some color payoff.  NYX has that covered and then some and they're super affordable!  I have 11 of these wonders so I'm going to split this into 2 parts, with the formal review given in the second.  The first part will be the more nude/non-pinky shades.  Continue for swatches!
