Hard Candy Velvet Mousse Matte Lip Colors Review


So my birthday happened and with my money I went out and bought some lipsticks because I am addicted to buying makeup. I really wanted some lipsticks that are matte and also one that was purple. I saw these Hard Candy lip colors and the packaging was so cute I had to get them. 
I decided to get two colors: “Wisteria” (#1078) (the purple one) and “Cherry Blossom” (#1077) (the pink one). I really love both of these colors. Wisteria is really edgy looking and Cherry Blossom is one I could wear daily. When I took out the lip color it was in a skinny tube and it had a standard lip gloss style brush. I kind of expected it to be more of a round container with maybe more lip color, but that’s fine by me. The packaging says they are 0.23oz each.

I swatched the colors on my hand so you could see them, however, I took the picture right after and it looks a bit glossy, but that’s not actually how they are. The colors are matte as it says; you just have to let them dry. The most amazing part about these lip colors though is the smell. They are called “Velvet Mousse” which I didn’t think anything of and I thought it was just a fancy name. BUT. But… they actually smell like velvet. Like red velvet cake. Really sweet and vanilla-like and it is A MAZ ING. I would buy these again just for the smell alone. 

Overall I really like them. I’m excited to wear them on a regular basis. They seem to last a while once they dry (even though it still comes off a bit) and they are great colors. Maybe I’ll buy some more in the future. That is all for now. I bought some more nail polish as I tend to do, so I may swatch those for my next blogpost. See ya then

Firework Nails

Hello everyone! If you live in America then tomorrow is an exciting day for you, full of celebration. With that celebration comes amazing fireworks. So, without further a do here are my Independence Day firework nails. The polishes I used were Sally Hansen's "Co-balt Blue" (#320), "Red My Lips" (#470), "Silver Sweep" (#230), and "Grape Shifter" (#423), NYC's "French White Tip" (#134), and Blackheart Beauty's "Deep Sky Blue". I also used a nail dotter to create the fireworks. I started by painting the base colors on my nails, alternating the colors on each finger, and letting that dry. I chose to do my fireworks on the navy blue nails, but you can do them on the red or even on all the nails if you choose. For the fireworks I started with a dot for the center of the firework and added a red star there. Remember, the center of the firework does not have to be in the center of the nail (I only did that on one nai...

Suncoat Natural Nail Polish Remover First Impression

Hello everyone! Today I have a review for Suncoat’s Natural Nail Polish Remover. My mom recently purchased this online at Amazon, which at the moment is $5.68 for 60ml. It is a corn and soya based nail polish remover with only 4 ingredients, which is significantly healthier than regular polish remover. It comes in either a 30ml or 60ml glass bottle (1oz or 2oz) which is better than plastic because the chemicals in plastic bottles will soak into the remover as well, and that’s bad for you. The directions say to put it on your nails with a Q tip or cotton ball, let soak, and rub off until the polish is removed; basically, it works just like normal removers. I had my mom test it on the 4 th of July nail design and the new glitter polish I got (I test my designs on her first ok) and she gave me a review. She said that it was very very oily, but it is oil so that’s what you’d expect. It took longer to remove than what it would for normal polish remover, but it worked just as well....

Miracle Gel Swatches

Hey guys! I know this post is late, but now that school has started back up all I ever do is homework. It's ridiculous I don't do anything anymore (not that I ever did lol). Anyway enough excuses. I did these swatches forever ago, like October of last year, so my memory of these colors are a distant memory. However, I didn't have a post planned so I thought I would show you these. The deep red color is "Wine Stock" (#480). I really like this color and it would be a great holiday nail color. However, because I love red nail polish, especially deep red, I will wear this whenever I want. As every other Miracle Gel polish I own, this is a great polish. I believe this was only one coat as well which is super cool. The other color is "All Chalked Up" (#230) and it is a pastel purple color. This color is very light-hearted and cute looking which I appreciate when it is dreary outside and I get sad. This is also a great Easter color (apparently I l...
