Babylips Lip Color by Maybelline

Jul22

Hi guys, so I have a dilemma. And as a frequent cosmetic consumer, this dilemma prevents me from exchanging funds for beauty goods and services. Currently, I’m frustrated with companies such maybiline, target, Walmart, and walgreens because I can in no way find the new Neon baby lips electro.

I am a huge fan of baby lips, in fact, I have almost all of them.

Baby Lips

They’re moisturizing, they’re not as expensive or thick as lipstick, and they have excellent color pay off. There are a million colors and yummy flavors so I swatched a few for you here.

Tarte’s 12 Hour Broad Spectrum BB Cream

Jul18

Today I will be reviewing Tarte’s Broad Spectrum BB cream.

I consider this to be a medium to high coverage BB cream. It compliments all skin types  and comes in 4 different shades. Including their foundations, Tarte does the best job of matching a persons skin tone to their product.  BB cream is gentle on sensitive skin and does not irritate acne. It also has 30spf.

There is ounce of product in the tube. It goes for $34  you can get it on Amazon.

For application I would suggest either a thin foundation brush or just your fingers. You can start with a dime sized amount because a little goes a pretty long way. As you can see it has evened out any redness, mattefied my t-zone, and has begun to cover acne. Like other BB creams it’s very light as apposed to foundation.

For full coverage I suggest using concealer then a powder over. In the video I’m using L’oreal True Match and Bare Minerals to finish it off.

The cream is advertised to stay on for 12 hours. The BB cream is pretty long lasting but I only found it to last about 6 hours depending on sweat, heat, and activity.
