April 2013 Haul/Favourites

Hiya,
I'm back with another haul/favorites for the month of April.(whewww this year is flying by y'll).
So i only have 6 items, all lipsticks and all from the brand Ruby Kisses (i love that brand ) btw
So the pics are below
from left to right (in this pic and all the other pics)
vamp red
shiny purple
plum
fuschia
velvet red*
bordeaux*
*when out and bought theses after i filmed the video

What RubyKisses Say:

  • Rich & creamy formula
  • Long-lasting & intense color
  • Semi-matte finish


What Garielle Say:
These are very nice lipsticks (okkkkk). They are chear and the quality and pigment is great, for a cheaper drugstore brand. But i would also say to get more bang for your buck, exfoliate lips, apply lipliner and then the lipstick.Some like vamp red, bordeaux are matte finishes, whilst shiny purple, plum , velvet red are creamy. The formula does last long once paired with the right lipliner.
Overall this product get 4.5/5 **thumbs up**
 See the swatches below:


Same order from mentioned above

February 2013 Favorites/Haul Video

Hiya, 
       I wish all of you reading this a very safe and productive week ahead. So in today's blog post i'll be showing you guys some of the items which I use/d for the month of February.

In Clockwise Direction 
IBLING LIQUID EYELINER Glitz n Gold***NOT SHOWN IN VIDEO*** ,
glitz n blue, glitz n green

HD GEL LINER Rich Black***NOT SHOWN IN VIDEO***
Ruby kisses eye primer  ***not shown in video***



Quick Review On The Ruby Kisses 3D Face Creator
"i labed the back so that I would be able to differentiate between the two sides (d.dark is "dark dark" l.dark is lighter dark)

 6g. 0.21 oz. MADE IN KOREA 
HD NATURAL COVERAGE | SEMI-MATTE FINISH | 12 HOUR LONG LASTING WEAR
INGREDIENTS: Hexyl Laurate, Talc, Phenyl Trimethicone, Zinc Oxide, Caprylic/Capric, Triglyceride, Dimethicone, Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Ozokerite, Silica, Microcrystalline Wax, Methyl Methacrylate Crosspolymer, Sorbitan Sesquioleate, Polyethylene, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter), Carmelia Kissi Seed Oil, Ethyhexyl Mthoxycinnamate, VTocopheryl Acetate, Macadamia Temifolia Seed Oil, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Lycium Chinensis Fruit Extract, Allantoin, Dipotassium Glcyrrhhizate, Ascorbyl Palmitate, Methylparaben, ,Propylparaben, Propylparaben, BHT MAY CONTAIN [+/-]: Titanium Dioxide (c177891), Bismuth Oxychloride(C177163), Iron Oxides (C177491, C177492, C177499)

First off, let me begin by saying that I absoultely LOVE this product. okayyyy lol but seriously this ish is good. Like top brand makeup products good
My first impressions of it though, I thought that it was a little oily "oil was settled on the surface upon purchase", so for my oily sisters, be careful. It has a very silky feel and blends effortlessly because of the silicone content. Works great for under the eyes, and as foundation for dry skin or combination (primer needed). Two shades come in the packaging one lighter and the other darker. My guess is one foundation, one concealor, which is a good deal all together .
Pricing - I purchased this for 14.99 at my beauty supply store, which in US $ should be about 7.49 or there about.

Product Review : Revlon Photoready EyePrimer and Brightener

Hey Chicas,
                   So its been a minute (well much longer than that), since I last posted a product review and this has been for three main reason:
1. I've been busy with work and school
2. My focus with youtube videos has been makeup tutorials and trying to revamp my do-it-yourself videos
3. I pre-record 80% of my videos, so videos posted this week, were probably recorded sometime back in December 

So unto today's review, the Revlon Photoready EyePrimer and Brightener,
What Revlon Says
" smoothes, perfects, and brightens eye area by reducing the appearance of fine lines and creases, use anytime, anywhere on face as brightening "pick me up"

What I Say
Good product for prevention of eyelid oils, thereby preventing eyeshadow creasing. . The packaging is normal, it reminds me of a jumbo eyeshadow pencil or a jumbo marker with a "wonged" up bottom. (i demonstrated this in the video).
It has a large amount of product and a little amount really goes a long, long way with this product.
As brightener it is not suitable for darker shade women of color. It is too bright pale for the under eye area , if you are a few shades lighter than me, it should definately work for you, but for women of color please stay away.
The price of this product would vary based on where you purchase it from and the territory in which you reside. On ebay it reatils for $12.99.  But I purchased it for $25 dollars in my currency which our dollar is 1.98 to US $2.00. So paying $25 for this product is not bad (maths time) 
12.99 x 1.98 =  $25.72 . I didnt state whether this product was hypoallergenic or suitable for contact lens wearers so please approach with caution.
So this has been MY product review okay, lol view the pics below.

This is the packaging, tossed mine a while back.
As I stated it resembles a jumbo eyeshadow or jumbo maker :)

A close up of the "tip"

 The "bottom" part which wongs up

Looks I did using the primer
