New Maybeline 'The Buff' Color Sensational Lipstick Swatches

   
 I recently posted a video for the New Maybelline "The Buffs "Color sensational lipsticks giving my overall opinion and quick review of what I thought of each color.

There are 10 colors in "The Buffs" collection, but I didn't pick up all 10. I decided to stick to the colors I thought would work best for me and my skin tone and skip on the colors that weren't too appealing to me.

What I love about these lipsticks is that they have a nice consistency which is very important to me. But even more important is that they have great pigmentation and are moisturizing. 

They are not long lasting. Like most lipsticks you have to re-apply after eating or drinking. After trying them out I found that my lips were not chapped or dried from the lipstick.

Here are closeups and swatches of the 7 colors I tried:

   
First color is 915 blushing beige this color is very Kim Kardardashian! It's a really light nude color that made me think of her signature lip.

This color is 920 nude lust . this has a slight pink color to it thats not too overwhelming.

930 Truffle Tease  was the third color I tested. This is the color begins to go into the brownsie type of nudes. And is actually the type of color I like to try to create on my own with my lipliners.

I really loved how 935 Sin-a-mon  made my teeth look white and just like 930 Truffle Tease  it is more on the brown side of the nude collection.

 With 940 Touchable Taupe I noticed that it was thicker and creamer. This would be more of a fall color for my skin tone.

 Just like 940 Touchable Taupe,  945 Stormy Sahara is thicker and creamer than the others. This color has more of a peach undertone than a brown though. I think this would look nice as an everyday color in Spring!

 For some reason 955 Expresso Exposed didn't apply as I would have liked, but none the less I like the vampy  deep color! This is another great one for the Fall. And of course I love how it really made my teeth look white!


Overall I really liked the 7 colors I tried from "The Buffs" collection. A mix of great colors to wear everyday and a few especially good for spring and fall!

Drugstore Makeup 2012 Must-Haves!

Here are my drugstore makeup MUST-HAVES! 

 Revlon Colorstay Combination/ Oily skin
This is my go-to foundation for those hot summer days! Its the only foundation I bring to my trips in the hot sweaty temperatures of the Philippines! It has awesome, buildable coverage as well.  My color is Natural Tan.

 Loreal Paris True Match Blendable Makeup
Its perfect for All skin types! The foundation blends beautifully and has build able coverage. They must have the largest variety of colors when it comes to drugstore makeup. Reliable for sure! My color is W5.

 Maybelline Instant Age Rewind concealer
Conceals dark circles and red spots instantly! It sets very well and doesn't seem to need any setting powder. The shade I have is Medium.

E.L.F. blush in Candid Coral
This is the perfect everyday blush! You can really pack it on without overdoing it. It has a nice subtle sparkle, leaving you with a radiant glow :)

 Physicians Formula Bronze Booster in Medium/Dark
This is THE go-to bronzer! It has a subtle glow that contours my face beautifully :) Although its pricy for drugstore bronzer (typically over $10), I say its worth every penny!

 Wet n Wild Ultimate Brow Kit
It comes with two brow shades and a brow wax. I personally don't use the wax, but the shades are amazeBawls! The consistency of the powders are so buttery and easily blendable. I love how its only a few bucks too :)

 Maybelline Line Stiletto liquid liner
Perfect liquid eyeliner if you're looking for an intense black precise line. It may be a little difficult to use at first (if you're not use to liquid liner) but you'll find yourself loving it after some practice.

 Loreal Paris Lacquer Liner 24H gel liner
Its the only eyeliner i've been using since it came out this summer. In my opinion, its even better than the high end gel liners like Bobbi Brown or MAC! Smudge free and glides on easily!

 At first I didn't like this mascara because it doesn't volumize. However, its great at separating and lengthening lashes! Its completely smudge proof. I tend to wear this mascara whenever I'm using false lashes. It helps blend my real lashes with the false ones. 

 Loreal Paris Voluminous False Fiber Lashes Black Lacquer mascara
This is my best friend. I'm stuck with short sparse lashes, but thanks to this bad boy I can easily get thicker lashes! They can get a clumpy if you layer like crazy (like i do), but I use a lash comb to separate my lashes in-between the layers. 

 Sonia Kashuk Eye on Neutral palette
In my opinion, this is the best drugstore palette out there! You get wearable everyday neutral colors. The shadow consistency is buttery and easily blendable! I LOVE IT!

 Revlon Lip Butter in Creme Brule
Its between a lipstick and a lipgloss. I love wearing this lipstick when I go smokey on the eyes! Although its not a long lasting lip color, I love that its non-sticky and moisturizing! 

Loreal Paris Infallible lipstick
These lipsticks are one of my top favorite of all time! I prefer wearing them over MAC and Makeup For ever! They're long lasting lip colors and most days I just have to reapply once. My favorite colors are: Forever frappe, tender berry, and ravishing ruby. 

Simple Cleansing face wipes
If you're looking for a makeup remover wipe that removes waterproof eye makeup and is for sensitive skin, this is it. I like traveling with these wipes because I can skip out bringing eye makeup remover in my suit case!

Of course I can't forget about my lovely viewers!!! I made two gift bags full of all the goodies mentioned above! The only things I didn't include are foundations and concealer. I have two bags: One for a national winner, and one for International!!! If you would like to enter, see how in the video below!
