Review: Aerie Color Superfruit Vitamin Lipgloss

Hola everyone!

Sorry it's been so long since my last post, but I've had a lot going on lately and didn't have much time to sit down and write. But I've been cleaning my house all day and now I'm taking a break to bring you my latest review: Aerie Color Superfruit Vitamin Lipgloss!

You might remember the post that Shelly did a little while back about Aerie Color; she reviewed the eyeshadow palettes, mascara, and the Volugloss lipgloss. Now it's my turn to take a spin with Aerie Color!

Aerie Color Superfruit Vitamin Lipgloss in Pout (Retail: 9.50)
(Please note that the tube I have is a small size that Aerie gave away as part of their A-list promotion, the full-sized tube is much bigger. )

(Yes, it's on my windowsill!)

Pout is a really lovely shade of medium-light pink with iridescent blue sparkles in it, which are REALLY hard to capture on camera, but here is a swatch that best shows them:

See all those blue flecks? Totally gorgeous! I really love this shade, and I think it might even be my new favorite lipgloss!

          
This picture doesn't really show just how pretty Pout is. In real life, the pink is a bit more vibrant, and you can actually see the blue shimmer better.

The texture is another thing I really love about this gloss- it's sticky enough so that it stays on my lips, but not so sticky that I feel like I'm wearing maple syrup! It has a good consistency that is easily applied, and it does last for a pretty good amount of time. Something I thought was interesting was that once the gloss itself wore off, I still had the baby-pink color on my lips. It didn't look like I was wearing any lip color, but I knew because it was a different color from my natural lip shade.

The next thing I LOVE LOVE LOVE about this gloss is the scent! It smells like tropical fruit, just like the name suggests. And I'm not talking about lipgloss-fruit-scent, I mean it really smells like tropical fruit! Something else I really like is that  I don't get any hints of that weird artificial lipgloss smell. This is one of those times where having your mouth be right under your nose is heaven! LOL!

It is a bit pricey, but I think that I would most likely repurchase this when I run out. 

All in all, Aerie Color Superfruit Vitamin lipgloss is a great gloss, from texture to scent to color. I would highly recommend this!

Have a great weekend!

The Wonder That Is...

Crayons, that is the wonder I speak of, They just saved me about fifty dollars, because you can make lipstick out of them! I made four lipsticks for the price of buying crappy lip balm, talk about fantastic! anyway onto the recipe.


Three crayola non toxic crayons
One tablespoon mineral oil
A container
and that's it, heat ingredients together in a double boiler, I suggest using an old can as the top of the boiler, because the lipstick will be hella hard to wash out of there.


These  are the colors I made;

   

I figured since I was making lipstick with crayons, I had right to make crazy colors. I was kind of dissapointed with the pictures though because if you actually saw me wearing them they are much, much, brighter, but hey what can I say, I use a cell phone camera, because it is what I have. Sorry. 

I hope you all have as much fun making your crayon lippy as I did,

XOXO,

Shelly

Review : Aerie Color

Hey, howdy, hi, pip pip cherio, whichever you prefer! I am here to tell you about some fantastic new products!

 Now I don't know about  Kieran, but for me it is a personal rule that you do not suggest or review something you have not tried. That is why I have held back on this review I could not wait to give, because I had not tried the product. But now I finally have, and let me tell you, I was blown away by what I have discovered! 

The products in question are from a line produced by "aerie, by American Eagle Outfitters" called "aerie color". Aerie color is a line of eyes and lips products that are said to produce " Eyes that shine... Lips that shimmer... Beauty that's naturally you." And they aren't lying. I honestly cannot find ANYTHING wrong with these products! Granted I have only tried the shadow, one of the lip glosses, and Mascara, but at the drugstore prices it won't take me long to try the whole collection! 

Let's start with the shadow.

 This is the most silky eyeshadow I have ever tried! It lasts a good twelve hours, and about an hour in the pool. The colors are vibrant, soft, smooth and plush. The compact is adorable, and COMPACT. These eye shadows are even good for you! They are infused with Honeysuckle, Aloe and Chamomile, for sensitive eyes and skin. If I do have to say something bad about it the only thing I can think of is the applicator could do with a little fine tuning, but who uses the applicators eyeshadows come with anyway?? For a drugstore price of $14.50 what's not to love? This product is APPROVED!"Long-wear, ultra-soft creaseless shadows comes in 4 palettes with 5 shades each. 3 for everyday, 1 fashion color and 1 deep shimmering, smoky shade for evening. Available in Irresistible (berry), Glam (green), Femme (blue) and Goddess (brown). Retail Price: $14.50"

Moving On! Vast Lash Mascara! 

"This high performing, multi-tasking mascara is enriched with wheat protein which helps fortify and condition lashes. Wait till you see our spiral brush technology. You’ll swear it’s a magic wand. Available only in Pitch Black. Retail Price: $10.50" 

How does aerie keep nailing there descriptions?! Because 
e every single one of them is spot on! Okay, so I am a mascara snob, I buy the same brand of mascara every three months, just like a good girl. I have tried everything from cheapo drugstore brands like wet 'n wild to uber expensive brands like chanel, and none of them have done for me what this mascara has! It is the longest wearing, easiest to get off, most unclumpy, smooth, most natural mascara I have ever used! It's got one of the coolest looking brushes ever, and for some reason that brush works like no other! This product is also APPROVED!

And last, but definitely  not least, Volugloss lip plumping magic in a tube! 

"Helps plump your pout without any of the burn. Increase lip fulness and minimize lines while delivering extra moisture. Available in 8 shades: Doll, Bare, Precious, Fizz, Lush, Sunrise, Luxe, Shimmer, and Sizzle. Retail Price: $9.50"


This lip gloss is a plumper, but it does not burn like most people are used too. That is why I lurve it. It comes in eight fantastic shades. It makes your lips look as if they have been dipped in a vat of liquid diamonds! It does not feel sticky at all, it is very smooth, it almost feels like you are just wearing lip balm! That is why this product is APPROVED!


XOXO,
Shelly ;)
