Dupes for RiRi Woo RiRi Boy & Heaux

                                                           

First of all, I have to say that I love all of the shades of these lipsticks! From left to right, RiRi Woo, RiRi Boy, and Heaux. The colors are vibrant and very pigmented! Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get my hands on these yet, because they are out of stock, but I was able to find some amazing dupes for you guys! These Rihanna retro matte lipsticks are very matte, but not as matte as the original matte Mac lipsticks such as Ruby Woo! Although, I haven't been able to purchase these yet, I do own Ruby Woo! Based on what I'm seeing with  RiRi Woo, the two are pretty much the same! So, in my opinion, if you already have Ruby Woo, you don't really need RiRi Woo, unless you just want to get it! RiRi Woo is just not as matte as Ruby Woo! If you are like me, and you haven't been able to get the RiRi collection, don't worry! I've found some dupes that will hold you down until you can get the RiRi collection! Check them out!

This is On Fire Red (895) by Maybelline! This color is amazing! When comparing this to RiRi Woo, it is almost a dead ringer! The only difference is the finish! The colors are very similar! Love it!

Next, I found this lovely Revlon lipstick, It is Berry Haute (660) It is also a very close match to RiRi Boy! This light lavender purple lipstick really is a great dupe for RiRi Boy. So, definitely check it out for yourself!

And last but not least, I found CoverGirl Euphoria (360)! This lipstick has that red berry color that matches Heaux! When comparing Euphoria to Heaux, they are very close! The only difference once again, is the finish! All of these dupes are very close in color, but the dupes don't have the retro matte finish as the RiRi Mac lipsticks!

So, if you're looking for some great dupes for the RiRi lipstick collection, you've found them! All of these dupes are amazing, I hope you love them! Until next time, thanks for stopping by loves, I hope you love the post! Leave your comments down below loves!

Thanks so much,

Review | Ben Nye Banana Powder

Ben Nye face powder is known for its theatrical uses, but nowadays, many people are using this powder as a highlighter, concealer, or even  a finishing powder. I personally use this powder as a highlighter and to set my concealer. This powder is really good for giving your face a bright and fresh look! Ben Nye face powders come in a few different shades, but I like the Banana, and the Topaz powders! These colors work best for my skin tone! When using this powder, you don't have to use a lot as all. If you use too much, you can get that white over-cast, and you don't want that! So, just remember, a little goes a long way! Overall, I love this powder, it helps to set my concealer as well as giving me a brighter under eye appearance. It also helps to give my my makeup a more brightened affect! You can purchase this powder online at Amazon! as always, please leave your comments down below, and let me know what you think of this review! Thanks for stopping by loves.

Take care,

Review | Outre's Lacefront Wig Lydia

This wig is very beautiful, the color is a bright beautiful red / auburn color (DR425). The unit is synthetic, and it is about 18 to 20 inches long. Ms. Lydia is a very pretty wig and I love her. But she does have some shedding. This unit is also on the thin side, the density is light to medium. Although this unit is very pretty, the shedding could become annoying, and you might not like that the unit is on the thin side! Overall, if you're looking for a reddish auburn wig that is really long and pretty, and you're not worried about shedding, this is the unit for you! The wig does come with combs and adjustable straps. This wig is also on the snug side. The wig cap is kinda small, so if your head is on the big side, it might be a little tight! If you're interested in purchasing this unit, you can get on Amazon! This unit is also sold at other wig sites as well! I hope you guys enjoyed this review, leave any comments or questions down below!

Tom's of Maine Fresh Apricot Aluminum Free Deodorant Review

Let me start out by saying that I have read a lot of reviews on this deodorant before I decided to buy it! The main reason for me purchasing this deodorant is the fact that it is aluminum free! I have discovered that the aluminum in most deodorants isn't really healthy for your body. Some even say that aluminum may actually cause cancer! I'm not 100% sure, but personally I've used so many different deodorants, and a lot of them didn't last for me. So, I decided to use Tom's! I've been using this product for about 2 months, and I have to say that it has been great! I especially love the smell of the fresh apricot. It goes on really smooth, and it does last a while.

Now, when using this product, I noticed that I got a little peeling of my underarm skin, but I didn't get any bumps or irritation. Because my underarms were really dark from shaving and using regular deodorants, the peeling actually made my underarms much lighter. Since I've been using this product, my underarms are much lighter! I also stopped shaving and started waxing, this is also apart of why the appearance of my underarms have improved! A lot of people have complained that this product doesn't last, but it is just fine for my needs! If you no longer want to use deodorants with aluminum, try Tom's, you have nothing to lose! Please feel free to leave your experiences with this product down below! I would really like to know how this product worked out for you! So, thank you guys for stopping by, I really appreciate your feedback!

Take care loves,

Elf Mineral Infused Face Primer

Primer is something most of us use as a base for our foundation. But, I didn't always use primer. I didn't understand the significance of a good primer until recently! Primer acts as a layer that helps to provide a much smoother application of your makeup or foundation. I've realized the difference in using my foundation with a primer and without one. In my opinion, primer is definitely needed if you want a smooth and flawless makeup coverage. It is also important to use a moisturizer to protect your skin from dryness as well! When your skin is nicely moisturized, and a good primer is used, your coverage should look great!

Elf's face primer, is a clear primer that is smooth and provides a great base for your foundation. I love that it goes on moist and dries to a smooth finish. All you have to do is take a couple of pumps and rub it all over your face before you apply your foundation. I love this primer because it gets the job done, and it is cost efficient as well! If you haven't tried this primer, give it a try today!  And as always, thanks for stopping by loves!!!!!

24 Hour Revlon Colorstay Liquid Foundation Review

Revlon Colorstay foundation is another great drugstore foundation loves! This foundation doesn't last 24 hours, but it does give a light to medium coverage that is great for the price. I have to say that I use this foundation when I want a light coverage. Revlon Colorstay is a light and smooth foundation. I love it because it feels light, and it doesn't feel as if you're wearing a ton of makeup. I purchased this foundation in the color toast, (370).  In my opinion, this foundation is greater if you add concealer and a good powder!  If you're not interested in paying a lot for makeup, and you don't like wearing a lot of foundation, this is a great alternative! Revlon Colorstay is must try product! Thanks for stopping by loves!

Maybelline Great Lash Mascara Review

We all want a good mascara that doesn't run and stain our faces. Because I am a beauty on a budget, I love to find great products for less! This mascara gives your lashes great coverage and a longer appearance. For me, I particularly love a good waterproof mascara that doesn't clump! I purchased this mascara in blackest black for around $8 bucks. I can say that I actually had a few small clumps as this mascara got older, but overall, it's pretty good! The one thing I don't like about this mascara, is the smell! But I haven't found a mascara that smelled good! Maybelline's Great Lash mascara is a decent product, it gets the job done! If you desire a more defined lash, you might want to apply several different mascaras or add some false lashes! Just my opinion loves! Hope you guys like this review, leave your comments down below!

CoverGirl Queen All Day Flawless Foundation Review

CoverGirl Queen liquid foundation is a great drugstore foundation. When I first purchased this product, I was sold! First glance, I love that it has a pump, and the product is rich with a smooth and creamy consistency! When I applied the foundation to my skin, I was definitely feeling it! I have to say that this foundation is very good for the price. It professes to give the coverage of a concealer, foundation, and powder all in one! It is also recommended for darker skin tones as well! This product comes in an array of shades, and it is a medium to full coverage. I purchased this foundation in Amber Glow and Sand! I wouldn't say that this foundation last 24 hours, but it does lasts for most of the day! I highly recommend this foundation, if you want great coverage on a budget! On a scale of 1 to 10, I give it a 9!

Maybeline Age Rewind Dark Circle Eraser

I  don't know about you, but this product is one of my must - haves of all time. This Maybeline Age Rewind dark spot eraser is great for covering those unsightly dark circles a lot of us have! I have to say that I love the packaging and the twist applicator. The product comes out smooth and has a great consistency! I purchased this product in the color light pale! When choosing your concealer or dark circle corrector, you should always go one or two shades lighter than your skin tone. When applying my concealer, I like to apply it after or on top of my foundation.I find that it looks better when it is applied after the foundation! Although, this works better for me, do what is right for you! I'm not an expert, so do you!!!!! On a scale of 1 to 10, I give this product a 10! I absolutely love it, I hope you do too! Thanks for stopping by, take care loves!

BH Cosmetics Liquid Foundation

BH Cosmetics has a variety of products for affordable prices! This line of products cater to everyone. Any budget can afford these products. The products range from foundation, eye shadow palettes, glitter, brushes, blush kits, accessories, and much much more! BH Cosmetics has an array of products that are of great quality! The product that we're discussing today, is the BH Cosmetics liquid foundation. Let me start by saying that this foundation is a medium to full coverage, and it comes in a variety of shades!

I have to say that I purchased this foundation for around $5 bucks. I don't know of any place you can get a good foundation for $5 bucks! So, this had me skeptical! But I was optimistic to say the least. When I purchased the product, it arrived in a glass container. Many people may have some concerns over the packaging, but this wasn't a big issue for me. I opened the product, and applied it to my face! To my surprise, it had a lovely smell, and it went on my face nice and smoothly,with no streaks. The application was a medium to full coverage, and  it really felt light on my face! To make a long story short, this foundation is the business! It really covers well, and leaves a nice feel on the skin! For around $5 bucks, you can get great foundation coverage similar or better than most expensive brands! The only down-side to this foundation is the fact that it leaves a shine. I didn't realize the shine until after the product was on my face for a while. But other than that, it is a really good foundation overall! You can check out BH Cosmetics for this foundation and other great deals and products as well!

EOS Lip Balm Review

EOS lip balms are the Bomb!!! I love these lip balms more than any other chapsticks or lip balms I've ever tried! I have to say that these lip balms are very moisturizing, and they actually work against chapped peeling lips. Before I discovered EOS lip balms, I was using all different types of balms to keep my lips from becoming chapped! I tried everything, and nothing seemed to work for me! I really had a hard time, I was starting to think it was just me, I started drinking tons of water, using petroleum jelly, I was desperate for a solution to my dry lip issue! That is until, I tried EOS! The fact that these balms are all natural, is a bonus! I think that because the ingredients consists of shea butter and jojoba oil, it really does help to lock in moisture to actually protect the dryness on our lips!

I have to say that I love that these balms come in so many lovely flavors! I've purchased these balms in the 4 pack, and in the 2 pack as well. The 2 pack has the strawberry sorbet and the passion fruit. While the 4 pack comes with flavors like; honeysuckle honeydew, summer fruit, sweet mint, and vanilla bean! And of course you can purchase individual flavors as well! These balms are 100% natural and 95% organic! If you're looking for some great lip balms, check  them out, and let me know what you think of them! Because I absolutely love them, I have them on stand - by! On a scale of 1 to10, I'll give this product a 10! Well done for a great product!!!!!! Leave your comments down below!

Beauty Treats BB Cream

 

Beauty Treats BB cream is a product I stumbled up on! I was looking for a tinted moisturizer and I decided to try this one, mainly because it was inexpensive compared to the more popular BB creams. The product describes itself as an all-in-one cream for perfect looking skin. This cream offers the benefits of  makeup, a primer, a tint, a moisturizer, and is good for all skin types. Now, I have used this cream for some time, and I realize that this cream is great for most of what it says. As it relates to moisture, it does give a little moisture, but doesn't really do too much for my skin in that department. But, this cream is really good as a light foundation, and as a primer. It goes on smooth and really does give a nice base for the application of your foundation! On a scale of 1 to 10, I would rate this cream a 7! Although this cream isn't a full on moisturizer, it does give you a light and smooth application! If you are the type that doesn't like to wear a face full of foundation, this cream is great for light facial coverage! It didn't fully cover my blemishes, but it did a great job making my face nice and smooth as a primer for my liquid foundation! I would definitely recommend this product for the uses explained in this post! Please leave your comments below! 

Thanks loves,

Monistat Chafing Gel Review and Uses

When you think of Monistat, you think of itch cream for the vaginal area. But this cream isn't vaginal cream. It is chafing cream, and this cream can be used on areas where you have chafing! It's not meant for internal use, it's for external chafing areas, such as crease areas on your body as well as in your face. I particularly use this cream as a primer. It does a good job of giving my face a smooth surface for applying foundation. It really does help to get rid of those dry areas around the nose and chafe areas between the eyes and nose! This is really a great product for chafing an as a primer for the application for foundation! So, if you're concerned as to whether this is for yeast infections or itch, don't worry, it's a chafing gel, it can be used on areas of chafing, such as your face and other areas as well!!!!! Let me know what you think! Leave your comments down below! Until next time, take care loves

Mac's Ruby Woo Lipstick

When it comes to lipstick, Mac is one of the best around. Ruby Woo is my favorite matte red lipstick! I have to say that I wasn't interested at first, because of the price, but I tried it and fell in love with this lipstick. I love the matte finish, and the fact that it last all day. I know a lot of people aren't too thrilled about the drying effect of this matte finish, but this can easily be fixed by moisturizing your lips before wear! This is one lipstick that can be worn with anything, and it compliments many skin tones as well. For darker shades, I would recommend lining your lips with a purple lip liner. This just gives the color a more richer tone, making it more suitable for darker skin tones! Personally, I think Ruby Woo can be worn on anyone, It's just all about your confidence levels! Overall, this is hands down my favorite red matte lipstick! Hope you guys agree or disagree, whatever floats your boat! Peace and Love, take care!
