YSL Rouge Pur Couture Review

 The ever so popular makeup brand YSL has just launched a new lipstick collection rightfully know as "Rouge Pur Couture." I was sent 2 lipsticks from Influenster on behalf of YSL to review! I received the color Rose Stiletto & Fuchsia.
I must say that I absolutely love these lipsticks. Rose Stiletto, my favorite one, and is described as a rich berry red. Fuchsia is described, well of course, as a bright fuchsia. These lipsticks can be purchased from Sephora and retail for $36. Yes, this is a bit pricey for lipsticks but it's totally worth it. These YSL beauties glide on amazingly, the amount of color payoff in just one application is great. They are very soft, hydrating, and loaded with antioxidant goodies that are great for our lips!



I hope you enjoy this full review on my youtube channel that goes into detail about Influenster, YSL, and these lipsticks! There are swatches also which will allow you to see the color pigment on my skin tone as well as the color payoff. I hope you enjoy, & don't forget to follow me on Bloglovin' as well as subscribe to my YT channel! -Jay Quinn xoxo

Lucie+Pompette Lip Batter!


So you may be wondering, what is lip batter? Lip Batter is a 3-in-1 lipgloss that acts as a Lip Plumper, Gloss and Treatment. This hybrid gloss is brought to you by Lucie+Pompette from California. Lip Batter is a long wear, moisture-rich formula that acts like a treatment, plumps gently without irritation, and provides a natural healthy sheen to the lips. 
The super cute Parisian theme that this company uses is what really attracted me to them! The lip batters come in 5 shades and retail for $19.50, they also have a super cute clutch that you can carry them all around in for $18.50. 


What Lip Batter is: 3-in-1 triple-threat lip plumper, gloss and treatment in one. The multi-tasking formula creates the look of voluptuous, youthful lips, with all-day hydration and a chic wash of color.

What Lip Batter Does: This lip gloss locks in moisture, fills fine lines, and hydrates all day. A unique, flexible applicator hugs every curve of the lips, providing a flawless, precise application. The sheer tints of each color are infused with subtle, light-reflecting micro-pigments to create the illusion of fuller lips. A delicate tingle stimulates blood flow to the lips for natural plumping effects. Apply liberally for best results.

What Lip Batter is made of: This one-of-a-kind formula includes a cocktail of vitamin E, green tea, and white tea for anti-aging benefits. Boasting a light vanilla scent inspired by fresh macarons. Lucie + pompette products are vegan, cruelty-free and paraben-free also...yayyyy!

Ulta: Urban Decay Haul

Hi beauty lovers! So today I'm going to discuss the all so popular makeup brand, Urban Decay! I went to Ulta while on vacation and racked up on so many amazing products. I'll be discussing everything I purchased, & giving you my honest thoughts & opinions! So I hope you enjoy. I also have a video posted with my thoughts as well as swatches! 


So the first thing I want to talk about is the star of the show, the Urban Decay Electric Palette! This palette is not for the faint of heart! This palette contains 10 of the brightest, most amazing shades you’ve ever seen. If you love bold eyes that stand out, then this is the palette for you, & it also comes with a double-ended eyeshadow brush! 
These 10 shades have a velvety texture that glides on smoothly and range from mattes to highly dimensional shimmers. The color payout for every color is amazing. Each color is highly pigmented, which gives you the intense look you may be going for. While using the brush, I noticed there is fallout when applying; so if you dampen the brush that helps decrease the fallout, & applying the colors with your finger works great also. This is my first palette with colors such as these, and I definitely believe the price was well worth it! 

Next up is the Revolution High-Color Lipgloss. I purchased 4 of these babies in the colors Bittersweet, Vice, Savage, & Big Bang. There are 14 different note-worthy shades that have either a creamy high gloss finish or a sparkle, shimmer finish. I love the slim line shape of the tube and the high-coverage, ultra-pigmented formula. These glosses are EVERYTHING! They look amazing on your lips and the pigmentation is intense enough to give you the color you desire without being over the top! It never fails that when I'm wearing any of these, I get so many compliments! Hands down these are my favorite go-to glosses!

Another item I purchased was the Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion, I decided to get the small travel-size since it was only $12. This is a beauty product that quite literally speaks for itself, if you've heard of it, you probably already know how great it is - if you haven't, where have you been?! This primer helps your eye shadow apply more smoothly while keeping your colors vibrant and crease-free for up to 24 hours. The packaging has been revamped, & now includes an applicator for even more versatility. I used this in combination with the electric palette, & my shadow looked great all day! I love how this primer glides on smoothly, and fills in any imperfections on the skin’s surface. 
This primer comes in 4 shades; Original, Anti-Aging, Eden & Minor Sin. I chose to purchase the original shade because I didn't want anything tinted. This formula blends beautifully on all skin tones and dries invisibly, it's very easy on the eyes and the packaging is very appealing.
