MAC "Media" Lipstick Review | ♥

Hello you person reading this. 

Let me start this post by apologizing for being absent for 500 years. I know, I know..We're all old and with beards by now. Gandalf style.

BUT I'm back! ..I think 

So lets go on with this review! 



MAC "Media" is a color that I would look at and not be attracted to, but ever since seeing it on someone's lips, I fell in love with it! So I walked into a MAC store and tried it on. ... and bought it. 

Now, "Media" has a satin finish and it isn't as long wearing as MAC's matte lipsticks, BUT because "Media is a deep color, it leaves a bit of a stain and it lasts on the lips for quite a few hours without re-applying. However, I feel that "Media" doesn't wear off evenly, when it does start to wear off, and that's when I re-apply ;) 

I shall leave you all with some pictures of the lipstick and swatches and a video review, if you want to see how I applied it :P 

See? The lipstick looks darker in the tube than what it does when applied.
No flash used

annnd here's my video! Enjoy and subscribe! :)



On a completely irrelevant note, The Jezabels just released their new single, "The End" ..and I think it's absolutely brilliant! If you know me, then you are probably aware of my undying love for that band! So here is their new song :) Enjoy!

MAC Pro Longwear Concealer REVIEW

Hi my beauts 
In this post, I want to talk about Mac's Pro Longwear concealer..and how frickin AWESOME it actually is!
So this is what the concealer looks like:
This concealer is THE BEST I've ever tried by far! I have been using MAC's Select Cover Up for years now..and every time I try a new concealer, I always tend to go back to Select Cover Up because it was just the best ever.. until i tried Pro Longwear. 

This concealer is honestly FULL coverage. I also have MAC's Studio Finish concealer and this Pro Longwear can give you the same amount of coverage..except that this concealer doesnt cake up like the Studio Finish does..and it does NOT crease at all!! 
It actually dries fast..and you need little powder to set it..and it STAYS on for sooo long! ..at the end of the day i still have it on AND no creasing! eeeek I LOOVEE IT! :D

If you're looking for a concealer that is full coverage, non-creasing, and long lasting, I 110% recommend MAC's Pro Longwear. 

Here is my video review on this product..as well as some photos at the end of me wearing the concealer.

Anyway..I hope that this review was helpful!

Victoria's Secret Face Prime Makeup Primer and Setting Spray REVIEW

Hello everyone! 
As the title says..this review will be on Victoria's Secret setting spray. 
And let me start by saying how I LOOVE this product! Yes I have tried the Urban Decay setting sprays and yes they ARE better BUT this setting spray is ONLY $12 dollars and it still holds my makeup in place longer than what it would last without it. 

I think that $12 for a 4.05 fl oz product is a really good deal..especially if it does what it claims to do!..
This product is non-greasy and it hasn't broke me out.
I put it on my face twice..right after my moisturizer (before my foundation) and after I'm all done my makeup to lock everything in place. 

I am for sure repurchasing this product! 
Here is my video review on this setting spray if anyone is interested! :P

Anyway..I hope this was helpful!
