• Focused on a theme, such as smoky eye kits or contouring sets.

Benefit Cosmetics BADgal BANG Volumizing Mascara

BADgal BANG! Volumizing Mascara is a popular mascara from the brand Benefit Cosmetics. Known for its bold claims of dramatic volume, it features a lightweight, buildable formula that delivers long-lasting, sky-high lashes. Some key features include:

• Intense Volume: The mascara provides up to 36 hours of volume without weighing lashes down, offering a dramatic look.
• Formula: It contains a special aero-particles formula, which is said to be space-age and incredibly light while adding volume. These particles are lightweight but help create massive volume without clumping.
• Brush: The brush is a slim, flexible, oversized brush that allows for even distribution of product across each lash, helping with separation and definition. 
• Smudge-Proof: It’s designed to resist smudging and flaking, making it suitable for all-day wear.
• Buildable: The formula is designed to be layered without clumping, so you can build up the intensity to your desired level.

Overall, BADgal BANG! is favored for giving bold, volumized lashes with a clean, non-clumpy finish, making it a go-to for those looking to enhance their lashes without the weight of traditional volumizing mascaras.

Rude Cosmetics Makeup Primer, Radiant Lasting Makeup Mist and the Twinkle Twinkle Highlighter

 

OK, so yesterday I went to TJMaxx and bought some Rude items from Rude Cosmetics and I got way more for a few bucks and discovered their original price. I'm very happy with this purchase and will try review how well they work. I've been using a different makeup primer and highlighter weekly and I'm hoping Rude's primer and radiant spray is long lasting with the makeup I use and the key to spraying any primer is to keep them far away from the eyes and mouth. This warning is on both the primer and radiant directions. 

The Makeup Primer Spray isn't sticky, unlike so many other primers I've used, this one is perfect for the skin. There wasn't any irritation and after spraying I was able to apply makeup to the face with ease. The good news about Rude Cosmetics is they're an affordable brand that specializes in creating some amazing cosmetics you will end up needing all year round. 

Rude's Radiant Lasting Makeup Mist keeps your makeup fresh looking all day long! You can use the spray before and after every makeup application. I applied the Radiant Lasting Makeup Mist after my application and it felt clean on the face. Again, no sticky residue and it felt clean as I sprayed on this amazing mist. You can also refresh the look all day with another spray of this incredible mist. 

The Twinkle Twinkle Highlighter is part of the Rude Cosmetics MANGA Collection. It's a beautiful shade of everything new and unique in makeup and it has a beautiful glow on the skin. So I bought this one also at TJMaxx and it's original price is 8.25 and I bought it for the price of $4.99! It's a great price for a shimmering finish. I used my my very familiar makeup brush and tap the palette gaining some highlighter on the brush and simply glided this incredible highlighter on both cheeks of the face.

WICKED 12 Days of Beauty Gift Set

OK so I went window shopping yesterday and wanted to see what's on the the shelves at Khol's and I saw this WICKED 12 Days of Beauty Gift set and some other items that are very chic to use this season. And so I went ahead and bought the gift set out of curiosity. The box is cool to look and as you open the box it has the 12 beauty items placed behind sealed numbers. Since I'm using this as a new season post, I opened each one. Right now I tried on the Pink Berry Flavored Lip Gloss! It glides on smoothly and it very sweet on the lips. 

Here's everything that comes with the gift set: 4 Lip Balms, 2 Gloss Tubes, 2 Shimmer Lip Gloss Pots, 2 Glitter Pots, 2 Eyeshadow Palettes, and a makeup brush. 

As you can see this is the perfect set that will make any WICKED fan happy. I wasn't expecting this item to shop up as I walked through Kohl's. However, this is the strange price of the item. In store it costs 15.99 and online it costs 11.99! So I'm like hey that's strange but I'm glad I bought it. 

OK so as I mentioned before I used this Pink Berry Lip Gloss and took the picture with my phone. It's an awesome addition to the set and it's a definite keeper. I have no idea what I'll do when they stop selling this product. I mean there's been several gals who've posted this product on YouTube. If you are interested...Go ahead and grab one while they last and go to the movies this November and see WICKED in your local theater.
