BB Cream Swatches

I think most people by now know what BB Cream is. It's a foundation with all sorts of skincare properties that originated from Europe and is very popular in Korea. I own 3 BB Creams while my sister owns 2. The ones I own are the Missha Perfect Cover BB Cream, Skin79 Dream Girls BB Cream and the Dr.Jart Black Label. My other sister took my Dr.Jart Black Label one so I'll try to find it later to take a swatch of. My sister also owns the Skinfood one and the Skin79 Super+ Beblesh Balm Triple Functions one. If you're wondering why it's misspelled as "Beblesh," it's because in Korea the word "Blemish" is trademarked by another company.

The Swatches I have here are the Skin79 Triple Functions one, the Missha Perfect Cover (in #23) and the Skin79 Dream Girls BB Cream.

Orange Lips?

I absolutely love orange'y peachy lips. I think they're great and flattering apart from the typical pink or red lips. Since spring is coming up, I think they're perfect for everyday looks. I especially love peachy lips during the summer. I own 4 peachy/orange lip colours.



First the one at the top is Rimmel Lasting Finish Lipstick in Crush, it's more orange'y than the others and I love how becomes more of a peach colour when it shows up on my lips. It's not drying or moisturizing but I do like. But since it's more matte I like to layer a gloss over it.

Next is Revlon Colorburst in Peach. This one is pretty popular. Unfortunately since my lips are kind of pigmented it doesn't really show up well on lips. Nonetheless sometimes when my lips aren't so dark I like to throw this on because I love the colour and how it's more moisturizing than other lipsticks I have tried. It's more of a natural peach and that's why I like

The one at the side a gloss and it's also pretty popular. It's the Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss in Life's a Peach. I love these lip glosses! They have great pigmentation and they're not too sticky and they're long lasting. Life's a Peach is nice peachy colour with gold glitter in it, it doesn't feel gritty at all. A very flattering shade, alone or on top of a lipstick.

Next 2 is Covergirl's Natureluxe Gloss Balm in Coral. This is my favourite peachy lip colour right now. It's small and portable and easy to ship out to apply when you're on the go. It's very buildable. The first swatch I swiped it 5 times on my hand, the second time I swatched it about 10 times. On your lips it gives it a light peach tint and it also has some glitter but again, not gritty. It's pretty moisturizing which a great plus because of my dry lips and it gives them a glossy finish so there're no need for gloss or anything. I will do a separate review of this in the next few days with lip swatches and everything.

Hope you enjoyed this post! Until next time xoxo

ELF Haul + More

I thought I would end up writing a review or something as my second post but I actually ordered from an ELF survey not long ago and I got my order today. I wish I had ordered more! I've never used ELF before and I was so excited. The girl who has the survey has another batch so I'll probably order more because I am loving what I got.

Since I live in Canada, we don't have Target or anything that sells ELF. But good new news for you Canadians because Zellers sells ELF now! I was so shocked when I went to the make up section of Zellers, they have a lot of the predesigned kits and palettes from the Studio Line. They don't have like the separate brushes or anything, boo. My sister actually bought this set:

And she really likes it so go check it out! The best part is it was only $12 CDN but it's $15 on the site!

Anyway back to my haul, I bought a few more things from this seller, she is from soompi and has her own little shop too so I bought two things.

From Left to Right:
Complexion Brush
Powder Brush
High Definition Powder
All Over Color Stick in Pink Lemonade
All Over Color Stick in Persimmon (for my sister)
Shimmer Stick (from her shop)
Epistick (from her shop and for my friend)

I'm 100% happy with my purchase and I definitely want to buy again. I already have my own Epistick that I love to use with with the hair on my upper lip and I knew my friend wanted one so I bought it for her. Also, here's a swatch of the Pink Lemonade Color Stick and the Shimmer Stick:

It's pretty true to color in this photo but I swatched it a bit harder so you can see it better.

That's it for now, thanks for reading this! I`ll try to post up something better for my next post.
