Perfume Reviews
I've recently begun to work through some perfume samples I've received over the past few months and wanted to offer my thoughts:

benefit to go!
benefit, you guys rock!
On my most recent trip to Sephora, I couldn't find a single cute thing, except for the Hello Kitty stuff, that I wanted to try. :/
Except for this!
Except for this!
This is benefit's "to go" set with 3 awesome mini products to try.
The products work great together, and do a great job of sticking on all day long. This set only cost me $10, yeah, ten bucks! It's a great set, and benefit really does have cute products that do heavy-duty jobs.
From the left, you have the Stay Don't Stray primer. It works for both concealers an eyeshadows, it stays on all day for me, it is nude in color and applies that color, too. Awesome product, great travel size.
0.09 fl. oz. of product
Erase Paste is a "brightening camoflauge for eyes and face." I use it under eyes and to cover blemishes. Seamless application.
0.11 oz of product
The final product is a creaseless cream shadow/liner in "R.S.V.P."
Really is creaseless, and applies smoothly, with a pink-gold tint and minimal sparkles. Great for everyday.
0.11 oz of product.
I've been doing my makeup wrong for 10 years :/
Thank you MAC artists for teaching me how to use your products the right way!
Please comment below if there are other things I should probably know how to do... :)

Valentine Smooches
Are you ready?! I am! Valentine's day is the best, you know why? The colors of the holiday are red and pink, the best colors in the world.
Coincidentally, the best colors on your lips too.
so, let's playyyy...
The Best Lipstick for V-day Game! (MAC edition)
Im rating these by kissability (:*) = 1 point out of 5
The contenders:
In the left corner, "Impassioned", an amplified tomato color. The center, "Russian Red", a SUPER matte blood red. In the right corner, "Pink Friday", the cotton candy satin color.
Let's Get it ONN!
Pink Friday, as you can see from the smooch, is super pigmented and will come off when you smooch, so pat it on (as opposed to swiping it on). This will probably be your best bet if your making out like animals on V-day and dont want to make your mouths look like a vampire's.
Kissability: (:*) (:*) (:*) (:*)
Russian Red, my newest addition, is the mattest your lips can get with a red color. As you can see from the smooch, you shouldnt use it to seal that love letter. This color DOESN'T budge. i tried twice to get a decent kiss, but it was going nowhere.
Kissability: (:*) (:*) (:*) (:*) (:*)
Impassioned is the cutest color, butttt..... if you're kissing with it, its going everywhere. Amplified MAC lipsticks are close to matte, but less dry. The color is a lot more orangey than it looks in the pic, but you get the idea. This is ideal if you're not getting any hanky panky and being a good girl on V-day since it wont go on anywhere except your martini glass.... or 5.
Kissability: (:*)
Good luck and comment with your lipstick ratings too!
