Models Prefer Moisture Lust Glossy Lip Tint Review - Candylicious

The Models Prefer Moisture Lust Glossy Lip Tint in the shade 'Candylicious' is a beautiful berry colour. The crayon itself has a wind-up mechanism which is great, no sharpening required, and the plastic packaging feels sturdy. My lips have been quite dry lately but when I apply this lip tint my lips feel moisturised. It is very comfortable to wear however I don't think it actually cures my dry lips. Whilst it feels moisturising while you wear it, after it has worn off your lips are returned to whatever state they were in originally.

For a "lip tint" the pigmentation of this crayon is impressive, it can be worn sheer but you can build the pigmentation up. Also, as indicated by the name "glossy lip tint", the finish is really nice and glossy. The wear time of this product is really good. After one hour it still looks freshly applied, and I find it lasts on my lips for 3 hours. Pretty good!

Overall I think this is a really good lip crayon; good lasting power, good pigmentation and is very comfortable on the lips.

3 A.M.A.Z.I.N.G glitter polishes

Hi guys, if you visit my blog from time to time you might notice that I occasionally on a Monday I do a "by the numbers" post...basically I go to a random number generator and then use whatever number gets generated as inspiration for a post. This week the number generator (from random.org) spat out the number 3...so I present to you 3 awesome glitter polishes. Who doesn't love some glitter?

1. Models Prefer - Stardust $2.50
Stardust is a mixture of white and black matte glitters in different sizes and shapes in a clear base. It came in a two pack with a black cream polish that retailed for $5 from Priceline (exclusively). I really LOVE this polish because it is foolproof (don't have to mess around with placing the glitters), the glitters dry flat and it looks amazing over a ton of polishes. If you are falling head over heels with this polish run (don't walk) to your local Priceline because I know these packs are still available. Priceline also has a set of 3 lipsticks for $10 and there were other cream polish / glitter polish combinations for $5 too.

2. Face of Australia - Studio 54 $4.95
Chunky hexagonal copper glitters and a decent sprinkling of smaller copper glitters makes this polish my favourite "normal glitter" polish. It's pretty dense and I love how it looks when layered over a copper polish. I wrote a review on it back in May, click here if you want to read the review and see an excessive amount of photos of it!

3. Face of Australia - Boogie Wonderland  $4.95
Finally, we have a milky, indie reminiscent polish called, Boogie Wonderland. Although quite sheer after two or three coats you get a good amount of colour and a healthy dose of glitter. The long bar glitters don't always dry flat and like to curl up, but that can be easily fixed. Overall this is a really fun polish and again if you want to read a review of it...click here. 

Thanks for reading,
Cheers

31 day challenge - inspired by nature

Hi guys, playing catch-up here because I missed a couple of days for the 31 day challenge. So this was my design for "inspired by nature". Initially I was thinking green hills, green leaves, trees and flowers but I wanted to be a bit more interesting than that so I went with the nights' sky :)

I used "A date in the moonlight" by Essence and "Part Popper" by ModelsPrefer. "A date in the moonlight" is a beautiful navy polish with shimmer and "Party Popper" is a mixture of holo bar glitter and silver glitter in a clear base.

I used the nights' sky as my inspiration and really love how this turned out. The first time I wore Party Popper I was kind of disapointed with it, but it has redeemed itself here I think. What do you think?

I just got a new camera, yay!!!! So these are the first photos I took with the new camera. It's great, really it is, BUT, the only problem is that it is too good! Well you see the problem is that even though my cuticles look nice in real-life, the camera highlights all of the details of my fingers making my good cuticles look yuck. I don't want to think about what photos are going to look like when my cuticles are bad!

Cheers and take care :)
