Best & Worst of ColourPop Just a Tint Lip Pencils

ColourPop Just a Tint Lippie Tint ($7.00 for 0.07 oz.) is described as "the perfection sheer wash of colour in the comfiest, lightweight, super moisturizing formula." Here's the big takeaway... they are not that sheer; they're not a wash of color. They have medium to semi-opaque, buildable coverage...

The Best & Worst of ColourPop x Halo Top

ColourPop x Halo Top Super Shock Pigment Duos ($12.00 each) are a new, collaborative release for National Ice Cream month. Each duo includes two Super Shock Pigments housed in a pint-shaped (flattened) carton. They were cuter in their packaging than I think they ended up in practice; they were...

Best & Worst of Melt Cosmetics Blushlights

Best & Worst of Melt Cosmetics Blushlights

Melt Cosmetics Blushlight ($22.00 for 0.13 oz.) is supposed to be buildable and can be worn alone or layered with other blushes. I'd consider it a more pigmented blush formula; a few shades are soft and yielding enough to be used with a lighter hand or less-dense brush for sheerer, more buildable...

Best & Worst of ColourPop Lite Stix

ColourPop Lite Stix ($8.00 for 0.33 oz.) is one of the newer formulas released by the brand; it's a cream highlighter in a stick format available across eight shades. There's definitely lots of room for some more variety in the shade range, as most shades are on the golden, warmer side of things,...

Best & Worst of MAC Electric Wonder Collection

Here's a brief summary of how the products from the new MAC Electric Wonder Collection reviewed!  It's a typical release from the brand with hits and misses, and as it features more neutral hues, it may be very redundant for some.  The item I enjoyed the most was the Ignite Wonder palette, which had...
