L'Oreal HIP Duos


Hey everyone! I have been so many people on YouTube haul the L'Oreal HIP Shadow Duos that I decided to make a post on the ones that I have, just in case if you spotted some on clearance at your Target stores and were interested in them. I only have three of them but I like the three that I have. I have seen these regularly priced for around $8USD to $10USD but these few days at Target, some people have spotted them on clearance for under $3USD each, which is a really good deal.

In my post, I am going to be showing you swatches of the ones that I own. If you see these on clearance at your Target, I would definitely recommend getting these. These are pretty good. Plus they are also convenient to bring with you during the day for touch-ups, especially since they have a small mirror in the compact. They also come with a small eyeshadow sponge applicator but I threw those away a long time ago.These eyeshadow duos are very pigmented. I did all my swatches with just one swipe. Whenever I use these, I don't really feel the need to wear a primer underneath but that could be because my lids aren't oily. If you lids get oily, you might be better off wearing a primer underneath for lasting power.












The three that I have are 318 Flashy, 518 Charisma and another one that I can't remember the name of because the back sticker fell off somewhere. If you happen to know the name of this duo, please comment below. Thank you! Have you ever tried these L'Oreal HIP Duos before? What do you think about them?

Swatches: Milani Lip Flash in 06 Flashy


Hey everyone! I just bought this Milani Lip Flash a month ago and have been wearing it off and on. These past few weeks I have been trying to use up more of my old products before I open up any of my new products that I just hauled. I have been considering whether to do the "Project 10 Pan" or maybe the "Project 5 Pan" to make it easier for me (LOL) but I wanted to do one more shopping trip at Target first before I taken that final step. If you have completed the "Project Pan," please let me know what you did to complete it.





Okay, so in this post I am going to be talking about the Milani Lip Flash in 06 Flashy. It is a gorgeous hot pink shade with shimmers. The shimmers are really fine that you can't feel it on your lips. Milani describes their Lip Flash as "full coverage shimmer gloss pencils," according to the actual product. I do admit, Flashy is definitely shimmery. Once you put it on the lips, you can definitely see the shimmers. Its very noticable. It gives your lips a shine. You can see the shimmers in some of my pictures and swatches.










Plus Flashy is really creamy, it goes on so easily on the lips and its really moisturizing. I never have the need for a lip gloss whenever I wear these. I can't say if its the same for the rest of the Lip Flash shades because I have only tried Flashy so far. The lasting power of Flashy is pretty decent like any other lip products. It lasts maybe 2-3 hours on my lips. I really like this product but the only thing that I don;t like about it is that its not retractable. You have to sharpen these. The size of this pencil is somewhat similar to NYX Jumbo Pencils. You can't sharpen these with a regular size sharpener. Other than that, I really like Flashy! Its definitely a shade that I wear on my lips whenever I want my lips to stand out.

Have you ever tried these Milani Lip Flash before? What do you think of the shade, Flashy? What shades do you love, if any?

EcoTools Recycled Retractable Kabuki


Hey everyone! So if you have seen my prevous posts, then you would already know that today I am going to be doing posts on all the EcoTools brushes that I have bought recently. I am hoping that my posts will help anyone who is interested in the EcoTools brushes and brush sets. Just to let everyone know this week, RiteAid is having a BOGO FREE sale on all EcoTools brushes and brush sets!! Hopefully my posts will help you decide which brush sets you want and/or give you more information on the ones that you are curious about.

So in this post, I am going to talk about the ECOTOOLS RECYCLED RETRACTABLE KABUKI. This brush is basically a portable kabuki. What I really like about this kabuki is that it comes in a retractable case. The retractable case makes it more sanitary and more easier to bring with you on the go. The bristles on this kabuki are synthetic taklon and the retractable case is made out recycled aluminum.







Overall, I really like this retractable kabuki. I love how its so portable and easy to bring with you on the go. Plus it more sanitary than just bringing a regular kabuki with you during the day for touch-ups. Also, the bristles are so soft. I love how soft this brush is. Hopefully, this post was helpful in case you were curious about the ECOTOOLS RECYCLED RETRACTABLE KABUKI. I hope that my pictures were helpful as well. If you have any questions, you can just either comment below or message me and I will try my best!

EcoTools Bamboo 6 Piece Brush Set


Hey everyone! So if you have seen my previous posts, then you would already know that today I am going to be doing posts on all the EcoTools brushes that I have bought recently. I am hoping that my posts will help anyone who is interested in the EcoTools brushes and brush sets. Just to let everyone know this week, RiteAid is having a BOGO FREE sale on all EcoTools brushes and brush sets!! Hopefully my posts will help you decide which brush sets you want and/or give you more information on the ones that you are curious about.

So in this post, I am going to talk about the ECOTOOLS BAMBOO 6 PIECE BRUSH SET. This brush set includes five brushes. All the brushes are 100% cruelty-free and made out of Taklon. The ferrules are made out of recycled aluminum. Plus the handles are made out of bamboo. Pretty much everything in this set is eco-friendly. Even the cosmetic case is made out of natural cotton. Plus what makes this even more eco-friendly is that even the packaging that it comes in is reusuable.


Overall this brush set comes with:
- Blush Brush
- Eye Shading Brush
- Eyeliner Brush
- Lash & Brow Brush
- Concealer Brush
- Cosmetic Case










Overall, I really like this brush set. I love the cosmetic case that it comes with. The case has individual slots to hold each brush. Plus it also rolls up like a brush roll holder but what makes it even more better is that it has a zipped up compartment that can hold your regular makeup. I know that the next time I travel, I am definitely bringing this set with me. Hopefully, this post was helpful in case you were curious about the ECOTOOLS BAMBOO 6 PIECE EYE BRUSH SET. I hope that my pictures were helpful as well. If you have any questions, you can just either comment below or message me and I will try my best!

All-in-all this brush set comes with:
- Large Eye Brush
- Smudge Brush
- Highlighting Brush
- Angled Crease Brush
- Small Eye Shading Brush
- Travel Case With Mirror







What I really like about this set is that the travel case has individual elastic slots to hold the brushes. Plus the case also has a mirror but I would probably have be careful with it because there isn't really anything protecting the mirror so it seems like if it falls or if someone sits on (etc) it will crack. Other than that, I really like this brush set. Hopefully, this post was helpful in case you were curious about the ECOTOOLS BAMBOO 6 PIECE EYE BRUSH SET. I hope that my pictures were helpful as well.
