Product Focus: Ruby Kisses cosmetics

Hello beauties,


It's been a minute, I hope you all are enjoying your holidays. As we all await to ring in the new year, I would love to introduce you to a cosmetics line that is not getting the recognition it is suppose to. This cosmetics line is known as Ruby Kisses. Ruby Kisses is a cosmetics brand under the mother company of Kiss cosmetics.

I will not be doing a thorough review of each product but I will share pictures and swatches of them. Most of their products are dupes of mid high end brands and best believe they have been a favorites of mines lately.

Enjoy the swatches of these products and a review on individual products will be up shortly, allow me ample time to use these products as much to give you all a fair review.
