URBAN DECAY

I ordered a few items from URBAN DECAY.  Their cosmetics are highly pigmented and tools are great.  

The OPTICAL BLURRING BRUSH is a synthetic brush that blends liquids and creams for a flawless finish.  I highly recommend it.  ORIGINAL/SIN PRIMER DUO is a good eye primer the SIN is on the shimmery side if your not looking for too much light reflection.  BOURBON is the perfect brown color with flecks of gold glitter and stays put.  ROACH Eyeshadow is a rich burgundy/metallic brown.  I use it to set the BOURBON LINER.  It helps to set it for a longer lasting look.

GOOD KARMA - OPTICAL BLURRING BRUSH - $24

ORIGINAL/SIN PRIMER POTION DUO - $28

24/7 GLIDE-ON EYE PENCIL - BOURBON - $19 

EYESHADOWS - ROACH - $18

OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE COSMETICS

I've had these for awhile now and haven't gotten a chance to post them.  These lip tars are highly pigmented and have the wear of a lipstick and ease of application of a gloss.  You only need a tiny bit of product to saturate the lip.  I prefer to use a lip brush.

HD Complexion Starter Kit

This is a fantastic Starter Kit to try from MAKE UP FOR EVER.  If you haven't tried any of their products this is a must have.  The lipstick was NOT included in the Kit but I purchased it as well.

The brush is amazing and the lipstick as so pigmented.  The HD High Definition Powder sets makeup in place.

I had to pick up some kit essentials.  I like using the MAGENTA MADNESS PIGMENT on top of lipsticks to make them more vibrant.  The LIGHT PEACH CORRECTOR is what I use around the eyes, nose or mouth.  It works well to camouflage redness.

PEACH GLAZE is a great color for a nude or natural look.  It's described as a LIP STAIN but I think it wears more like a long wearing lipstick with a sheen.  This is the first LIP STAIN I've purchased from Laura Mercier.  I'm really happy with the color and staying power.  I wish they came out with this in a lipstick tube.  *HINT to Laura Mercier*  I think it would be easier to sanitize on the go by swiping the top off in lipstick form.  You can always use Beauty So Clean wipes and/or alcohol on it or take a spatula and scrape only what you will use though in this form.

Rouge IN LOVE lipstick stays on really well.  I initially went to pick up 322M Corail in Love but somehow ended up with these two instead.  

The lipsticks are described as High Potency Lipcolor, 6 Hour Wear and Featherlight.

I picked up a few things from the MAKE UP FOR EVER Boutique.  I didn't know that a new brow product was coming out soon called Aqua Brow or I would've waited to get it.  I'm always looking for a good camoflauge kit.  I will say the AQUA EYES is Amazing.  It stays put and doesn't smudge.
