Five Favorite Nude Nailpolish Of All Time
Ever since I decided to go natural with my nails I've collected so many nail polishes over the past few years and I tried so many shades of nail polish but somehow I always go back to the classic nude polish. Today I will be sharing my top five favorite nude nail polishes of all time! Finding the right nude shade for your skin tone can be difficult some might prefer a beige nude, pink or if you're like me you might prefer peachy nudes. I think its the most flattering on my medium tan skin tone. Here are my top five picks:

"Make a statement with the world’s most iconic lipstick. Super Lustrous™ is formulated with microfine pigments for high-impact color. The smooth, moisturizing formula is available in 82 on-trend shades and four finishes – crème, matte, pearl and sheer."
Today I will be reviewing 10 shades from the Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick ($5.99 for 0.15 oz) Collection. These lipsticks are housed in a sleek, glossy black and gold lipstick tubes with a transparent head of the cap which makes it easier to see the shade of the lipsticks. All ten shades I've received has no fragrance, and they're all Creme finish except one which has a pearl finish.
Victoria Beckham X Estee Lauder Fall 2017 Collection
Victoria Beckham x Estee Lauder is back! This is a collection I was waiting for since I've heard it's making a comeback. So today I'm sharing my top three picks from the Victoria Beckham x Estee Lauder Autumn/Winter 2017 Collection, to help make your decision easier! If you missed this collection the first time around fear not, all the bestsellers are back from the previous collection along with some new editions. The only difference I noticed was the packaging, last year it was a leather-like striped packaging, and now all the new compacts have a pebbled leather packaging. Despite the minor changes, the quality remained the same. The luxe black, and gold compacts are very sturdy, and they still give off that chic yet edgy vibe.
“WITH THIS MAKEUP COLLECTION, I WANT TO MAKE WOMEN EVERYWHERE FEEL EMPOWERED, BEAUTIFUL AND CONFIDENT. INSPIRED BY MY FAVOURITE CITIES IN THE WORLD, THIS COLLECTION REFLECTS MY OWN PERSONAL BEAUTY VISION.”
I've always wondered about the chaos that occurs in backstage during fashion week but most of all I wanted to know what it was like to get the models ready for the runways. I got the chance to get a glimpse of the backstage scene I was invited to Kia Style360 NYFW backstage. Chapstick allowed me to go backstage and get a behind-the-scenes look as the model prep for the runway and an interview with James Vincent.

Rimmel London Stay Matte Liquid Lip Colour
Rimmel London launched 14 new Matte Liquid Lipsticks and today I will be reviewing all 14 shades. I recently had the pleasure of trying out a few lipsticks from their Kate Moss collection which I ended up loving. So I was very curious to see how the liquid lipsticks perform in comparison to the Kate Moss lipsticks. Each tube contains 0.21 fl oz and the lipstick tubes are packaged in triangular shaped tubes with a flat doe foot applicator, which makes the application process very easy. There is a strong fruity chemical scent which I'm not a big fan of but after a few minutes it dissipates. The formula is very creamy, it has a mousse like texture, it's highly pigmented, feels comfortable on the lips, it's long-wearing and it's very easy to apply. I often struggle to achieve that perfectly lined lips with liquid lipsticks since they tend to dry rather quickly. However, this was not the case with the Rimmel London Stay Matte Liquid Colours. It doesn't dry immediately so it allows you to take time with the application. The fun part about these lipsticks are the shades, there's a shade for everyone there's even a black and a gray shade Rimmels got everyone covered!

- Latte To Go- a neutral beige.
- Moca- a warm brown nude. (my favorite)
- Be My Baby- a light brown nude a lighter version of Moca. I noticed this went on a bit sheer had to apply a few coats for an opaque finish.
- Blush- a light pink.
- Pink Blink- a dusty rose.
- Pink Bliss- a rosy shade with a hint of mauve.
- Rose & Shine- a bright pink.
- Heartbeat- a bright fuschia.
- Plum This Show- a deep plum shade. I had a little issue applying this one it was a bit sheer and patchy.
- Midnight- a vampy wine shade. This was the same as Plum this show applied patchy and couldn't get an even coat.
- Fire Starter- a beautiful warm orangy red. This applied seamlessly love this one!
- Blue Iris- a navy blue. This wasn't patchy but it wasn't the smoothest consistency either.
- Shadow- a cool toned cement gray.
- Pitch Black- a black shade. This needed a few coats for an opaque finish.
Overall
Although some shades lacked in performance I have to say overall these lipsticks are quite nice compared to the price point. I noticed the darker shades were difficult to work with but it can be layered with a lip liner to avoid the patchiness and achieve a good color payoff. I didn't find these lipsticks drying but if you're going to wear liquid lipsticks on a daily basis I strongly suggest you exfoliate your lips weekly and apply a hydrating lip balm. What impressed me the most is the longevity of these liquid lipsticks I mean these last all day long! Once it sets you won't have to worry about reapplying that's the beauty of liquid lipsticks in general but these exceeded my expectations.
Now it's time for a little giveaway! I will be giving away 5 shades Moca, Plum This Show, Pink Bliss, Blue Iris, and Fire Starter. Entries will be collected from the Giveaway Widget.
