Colour Pop Cosmetics Haul | NEW Matte Shades! | Elizabeth Martinez

Hello, You beautiful Souls!

Sorry for the delay but I really wanted to wait until I got these to make a post about something I was REALLLYYYY excited about!
So here it is.
Colourpop Cosmetics, a Makeup brand based in LA whose products only cost FIVE DOLLARS. Recently came out with a new line of Matte Shadows. Up until last month The only shadows they carried were shimmers and metallics.
So naturally, when I heard that they were launching mattes I could barely control myself... one thing led to another and before I knew it I got an e-mailed receipt confirming my order.
This order would have come out to be $35 but when you sign up for their newsletter they send you an e-coupon for $5 off! So really it was like getting one for free so whatever you do, don't forget to sign up!!

I got a little scared when I opened the box because it looked like all of the shades were similar but thankfully when swatched they are COMPLETELY different. You'll see.

The formulation is out of this world and trust me your mind will be blown when you first touch them. These are the creamiest matte shadows I have ever played with. Yes, I said Creamy. AND, once the shadows set on your skin they literally don't move!

I have been sweeping my finger up and down the arm where all the swatches are (rather harshly) to see if the colors will budge, but I promise you that they have not.

I'll post a video tomorrow to actually show you but I have to say, I am really impressed.
Dare I say... but, I like these more than Urban Decay. Okay there I said it.

Here are individual pictures!
and Swatches!

Just wanted to mention really quick that I know that the fist swatch does not look very prominent but trust me, I tried to make it as noticeable as possible! You will never understand how much time and effort goes into shooting, and editing everything. So therefor, I apologize. Hope it doesn't stray you away from trying this AMAZING brand. I love supporting American Brands!

Nail and Lip Combo for Every Woman | Elizabeth Martinez

Hello, Beauties!

-Trying to find the shade that best suits us can sometimes be a challenge therefor while pondering on the idea of which shade best suits ME I came to the conclusion that there is typically three types of women.

1) The " I'm all about the Business" woman

2) The Rebel

and 

3) The Plain Jane

No, you don't have to be just one. 

In fact, I think that I personally dive into each of these categories every once in a while.

To put it in perspective:

1) The "I'm all about that Business" woman doesn't want to be too overdone so she'll settle for a berry toned products on her lips and cheeks while utilizing pales and pastels on her nails. This says, "I have very important papers to sign on an everyday basis so my nails need to be easy to keep up with."

2) The Rebel is the woman every girl wishes to be. She wears dark lips and dark nails year round. No explanations. She does what she wants and she's not afraid to show her wild side.

3) Plain Jane. She would want her intro to be just like that. Don't think she's boring, she knows exactly what shes doing. By matching her lips precisely to the color of her nude nails, good ol' Plain Jane is telling the world that shes preparing to conquer it. One sleek move at a time.
