Julep Light On Your Lips Lipstick Review

My new favorite Winter lipstick is the Julep Light On Your Lips Full-Coverage Crème Lipstick in Strut which is a  Plum Nectar Crème.

What’s to love?

I am a huge fan of the Julep products in general so when I got this lipstick in one of mystery boxes I was thrilled.  The creme formula not only has great coverage but it looks amazing and gives my Winter lips a little moisture. It has:

  • Shea Butter heals dryness and enhances moisture
  • Rosehip Seed Oil delivers essential nutrients to protect, soothe, and repair
  • Malvaceae Lipid Extract improves barrier function so lips retain moisture
  • Green Coffee Bean Oil invigorates skin and promotes cell turnover

I love the plum shade of Strut  which is a nice dark purple shade with a little raisin in the mix. It looks great with bronze eyeshadow too.

Overall I love this formula. It’s a creme that feels like a sheer and I only have to reapply every few hours.

Hot Topic Blackheart Beauty Nail Polish For Halloween

Hot Topic has the perfect nail polish for Halloween with Blackheart Beauty Skull Nail Polish. I picked up 4 shades including Dark Purple Galaxy, Hot Pink/Black Splatter, Green AB Iridescent and Pale Pink Shimmer.

IMG_1975

I tried all 4 on one hand and I like the Dark Purple Galaxy and Green AB Iridescent the best. All 4 shades are nice but Hot Pink/Black Splatter and Pale Pink Shimmer are a bit on the light side.

All of these shades would be great for witch or wizard costumes and the skull bottle is really cool. They are made in the USA.

They also have a ton of shades available including: Blue, Pink & White Splatter, Violet & Blue Glitter and Hit Pink Matte.

Bonnie’s August 2017 Beauty Favorites

Fall is finally here and I am so excited but I wanted to give August a last shout out with these favs that I picked up.

Here’s the list of my August Favorites and my video reveal…

Julep Dance in the Darkness Eclipse Set – This set is so pretty!

The shades from left to right are…

Lush Veganese Conditioner – Veganese is a light Vegan conditioner with “a mineral-rich agar agar gel base to soften hair and a herbal rosemary and lavender infusion for a healthy scalp” and it has a lemon juice for shine.

Urban Decay Shadow Box Palette – You get 12 2 3/4″ x 1/2″ shades including Sin, Indo, Bordello, Tornado, Smog, Blackout, Flash, Mushroom, Lost, Freelove, Moonshadow and Baked Cowboy.

    • Tornado is from the Wizard of Oz Glinda Palette.
    • Baked Cowboy, Indo and Moonshadow are new shades.
    • Smog is my favorite stand alone shade.

Urban Decay Vice Lipstick Backdoor – This shade is perfect for Fall!

MAC Upward Lash – The wand on this mascara is amazing!

Julep It’s Balm Full-Coverage Lip Crayon in Mulberry Cream – A deep red moisturizing lip crayon for Fall!

Lush Metamorphosis Bath Bomb – This one is a spicy one with black pepper oil, cinnamon leaf oil and Myrrh Resinoid but it smells really woodsy and good.

Lush Dark Arts Jelly Bomb! – Lush UK decided to release a new Bath Bomb called Darks Arts. It’s actually a new bath bomb called a jelly bomb and it looks amazing!

Julep Dance in the Darkness Eclipse Set

I ordered the Julep Dance in the Darkness set for the Eclipse  knowing it would come a little later and I’m so glad I did. These shades are amazing and perfect for Halloween too. I am a Julep Maven and got this Sweet Steal set for $14 ($56 value).

I am wearing Blakey and it’s so pretty.  This is a great Fall color for me if you’re a Harry Potter fan you’re going to love it! It reminds me of the color of a caldron.

Julep Judy! My Nails Shine Like The Eclipse Corona!

I wanted to do something fun for the eclipse today. I actually ordered the “Dance in the Darkness” set but it won’t be here until Wednesday so I decided to paint my nails with the Judy shade which is Moonbeam Iridescent Chrome. I got this in my Julep Fall All The Way Mystery Box!

I absolutely love this sparkly shade. It perfect for Fall, a Harry Potter party, Halloween and viewing the eclipse!
