HI ALL!!!! its been forever!! Being a mom and all has been CRAZY! Soooooo i got the mary kay vox box in the mail yesterday and was super suprised!!! lets start with some pictures shall we!
|
all the peanuts muahahaha i thought there was nothing in here! was i surprised!! |
|
all the pretties! in zee box! |
okay so! i got alot of stuff! tis crazy! like woah! so lets start shall we!
|
eyeliner brush very stiff and not easy to work with |
|
brushes merp
|
so i got 3 brushes an eyeshadow, blush, and eyeliner im kinda disappointed in the blush brush its pretty rough. :( and the creme eyeshadow brush is the tits! Eye liner brush is too big for me... i like kinda fine lines.
now on to the next bit! mascara!
|
lash love mascara! |
|
before mascara i have like no eyelashes at all! |
|
after! i love this stuff! |
|
it is very liquidy though so don't blink! (if you get this reference +10 brownie points! ) |
this mascara is awesome!!! i love the brush! but it is very liquidy so its messy as you can see ^^^^ no complaints here!
now the creme eye color, its in apricot twist. the consistency is smooth goes on nice but the color pay off isint as good as i thought it would be. im kinda disappointed
it looks super pretty in the container but merrr on the face.
Next the lip gloss! I got Mango Tango.
as you can see its not very opaque.. i love the texture not too sticky (i hate sticky lip gloss) but still enough to be a nuance. i don't want to have to re-apply every 5 min because i breathe. i love this color if only it lasted longer and was more opaque. It goes on pretty smooth but as you can see it sucks into those cracks in my lips and i hate that!
|
self explanatory ;) |
|
light/medium bronzer |
|
shy blush |
okay so on to the translucent powder, bronzer, and blush. the translucent powder is pretty much exactly the same as most indie brands. i honestly think that
madd style cosmetics EFFIN' PERFEKTION POWDER is pretty much the same. quality and all i would take the cheaper route and get madd styles. I don't ever use bronzer so i dont really have an opinion on the bronzer sorry im pasty as hell and i would look redic. Now i LOVE this blush. It goes on so nice (with the right brush) the color is so pretty and light and fun! no complaints here!
Jet black gel eyeliner now this is where my problem lies... if i had the proper brush this stuff is amazing! but with the brush provided its just a hot mess as you can see! its super smooth stays on forever! I always have a problem with any type of top liner because i have extremely hooded lids but this bad boy barely even transferred so for a gel its rad!

Mary Kay lip gloss eyeliner mascara and eyeshadow |
