Compare Maybelline Brow Drama and NYX Brow Gel

 
Oh its ON!  I was able to get me a tube of the NYX Eyebrow gel and OMG I love it.
 
From this picture alone, colorwise it is very similar.


                   

 
NYX is far more noticable than the Maybelline.  I know I already have have pretty full brows but this fills it in very well without being obvious.

Review: Maybelline Brow Drama Gel

From my previous post you know i have been focusing on brows.  Even though I am curious about the NYX pigmented brow gel. So I was wandering aimlessly around CVS and I found this:

Maybelline Eyestudio Brow Drama Sculpting Brow Mascara (8.29 USD)
 
Maybelline New York Eye Studio Brow Drama Sculpting Brow Mascara is Maybelline's first brow mascara that defines arches with the first-ever Sculpting Ball Brush. A colored gel tints brows and provides an even, natural, comfortable hold. No clumping. No flaking.
 
I had a a 5 dollars off a 15 dollar puchase.  I thought that this would be a good alternative for the NYX brow gel I cant get my hands on.  I picked up a soft brown becuase I didn't want to go dramatic  dark. weird brush.  I didn't want to mistake it for a mascara.  I thought the formula would be thicker.  Kinda looks like bird doo with this swatch.

 
 
So you can tell (or NOT at all) that this didn't do anything special to enhance, fill in or anything really.  I was hoping to have the rich pigmented results as promised.  
 
My final thoughts are, this stuff didn't work for me.  I know you saw the reviews on YouTube, some were good but I agree with the bad.  The brush is a joke,  way too big to disperse product and have it only on your brow.  This stuff is not pigmented.  I will probably have to see the dark brown to truly see a difference.  But save the 10 bucks.

New Palettes from Cherry Culture

 
My blogreaties already know my stance on this website Cherry Culture,  Also you may not already know BUT I love me some palettes.  These "Strip Collection" palettes are the lastest installment of Cherry Culture brand makeup.  I saw the jumbo eye and lip crayons but personally I didn't see much on them to buy them, so I didn't.
 
But i am excited about these.  Looking at the colors they seem to be on the warm nuetral side of things which could be a bad thing, speakin on variety.  But I may pick up one, how about you?
 
 
Also don't these remind you of NYX I Love Paris palettes?

In Search For: NYX Eyebrow Gel

Have you heard of this suff yet.  This is the newest product from NXY.  Brows are the biz now, the fuller the better.   For those who spent years getting them brows as skinny as twigs,  bigger is better.  Not to mention it makes one look younger.

   Okay so what so great? this is NOT the clear stuff.  This is a HIGHly pigmented brown gel that is to create fuller natural looking lashes and help those unruly hairs stay in place.  This formula is waterproof.

Of course I am skeptical.  But I how am I suppose to try out if I can't find it.  Sold out on the NYX website and its not even sold at Ulta.  Ebay is your best bet but be prepare to spend money on it.

Good Luck my blogreaties.

I'm Back! Crazy Discount on Mehron


Hautelook has Mehron on SALE RIGHT NOW!!!

I love the full coverage performance makeup like Kryolan and Cinema Secrets.  I thinks it the theatre nerd in me.  This makeup is the fullest coverage and is the strongest to hold up to anything. 

So I was surprised to see another theatre quality brand on Hautelook MEHRON!

Take a look at the discount.

 
on the Mehron Website, tak a look at this HD Highlight and Countour Palette retailing at almost 80 bucks online.

Look on Hautelook 50% off.  Holy crap I had to have it.  Especially since more and more are getting into contour and highlighting thanks the artist who work on Kim Kardashian.
 
My favorite professional makeup store CRC Camera Ready Cosmetics sells Mehron Brand and they carry the pressed pigment palettes for 56 buck while hautelook is selling it for 26.50
 
Now that I got that off my chest,  I should mention that Hautelook does not offer Mehron's entire line of makeup but only a few items.  Though for the few items that are available they ARE offered at a great discount and the items are great quality you wont be disappointed. 
Check out the event on Hautelook it ends Friday 8am Pacific time.
