Milani Haute Flash Shimmer Lipgloss
Hello Beauties,
Milani has introduced some shimmer lipgloss which are named; Haute Flash Full Coverage Shimmer Lipgloss. There are six colors (only reviewing five) available and all shades are shimmer finish.
Milani states that they are:
" A full coverage, highly pigmented lipgloss with an extra glossy shimmer finish. The non-tacky, anti-feathering formula and flexible soft sponge applicator allows for easy application."
Now these are not my favorite lipgloss and being a non lipgloss fan I decided to try these to see if they would be better than other lipglosses I have tried. I really don't enjoy these lipglosses. After applying them on my full lips, they felt tacky on the inner part of my lips. I didn't experience any feathering but I really don't like the wand used to apply the colors.
However I really like the shimmer in the different lip gloss colors and they remind me of MAC Dazzleglass shimmers. These products are vanilla scented and they are also 5g/0.18 oz
Pros:
Note: Make sure your lips are moisturized before applying these lipgloss.
***These products were sent to me from the company for PR and reviews purpose. My opinions remains honest and is in no way bias because products were sent to me free. I am in no way compensated by or affiliated with the companies mentioned.

Milani New Powder Eyeshadows
Hello Beauties,
I hope all is well. I received some beauty goodies from the famous and awesome brand Milani cosmetics. In this post I will be talking about the Milani new powder eyeshadows. There are twelve new eyeshadows and they come in both pearl and matte texture in various shades. I have Milani's old eyeshadows and really really love them as some of them are possible dupe for MAC eyeshadows ( that will be in another post).
These eyeshadows are 3.1g/0.11oz
Milani states that they are " Silky smooth and highly pigmented "
A super pigmented, easily blendable, crease-proof, silk-like powder eyeshadow. Available in versatile colors with both matte & pearl finishes that can be used as shadow or liner.
Yes beauties they definitely are what the company states them to be. As a drugstore brand eyeshadow, I am pretty amazed at their pigmentation without a base and also that some of the colors have a long staying power too.
These shadows can be purchased at CVS drugstores, Milanicosmetics.com

FOTD: Green Goblin
Hello beauties
It has been a minute since I posted a FOTD- Face of the Day, let me share what has been happening lately. I celebrated my birthday couple weeks ago with my besties. Love those chicas!! We had lots of fun, I would love to share pictures on my blog but I refrain from doing so since this is my beauty blog.
Lately I have been posting videos to my Youtube channel. I want to say to all those Youtube video gurus out there, you rock!! Editing videos aint easy, I like doing it but it's very time consuming especially when recording (hey I have a hyper 4 year old), then re-recording because you think part of the video was recorded well, then editing video and still you have mistakes. So kudos to all of you who put out a video daily, weekly or monthly.
Let me move on to the FOTD because I could go on and on about my daily life activities.
