Sonia Kashuk

Alright, so i had heard numerous great things about her brushes and I also love her makeup bags and stuff so I decided to try it. Well the two makeup bags i bought are just fine and they ran out of the brush i wanted so i didn't get any of those. I bought her concealer palette and two eye shadow things. One has four and the other has two. I was so excited because the colors looked phenomenal and i just wanted to rush home and try them out. So i got home and i did some swatches on my hand and the color pay off was decentish. The next day i actually tried putting some on my eyes and alas they sucked. It is worse than $1 makeup. The colors wouldn't stay on my eyes, i would put it on and then voila they disappeared. I am so not impressed. I would return them if i thought it was ok to, but i dont know if Target lets you. So i have the cruddy stuff still. The prices were outrageous as well. Freaken $7.99 for the two eyeshadow one and $9.99 for the four eyeshadow one. Like WTF, if im gonna pay that much i expect to to work. The concealor worked fine believe it or not, so i mean not everything is bad quality, but i would definately pass on the eyeshadows next time. I realize this is more of a rant then a review but i dont want any of you to waste your money like i did. So until next time, caio bellas!

L'oreal Hip Pigment vs. Mac

So i was bored yesterday and when i was organizing my pigments i noticed that pretty much my Mac and L'oreal were the same. You're prolly thinking no way Mac is way better, but seriously. Like my L'oreal and Mac pigments look like twins.

Mac Helium and L.H. Exciting
Mac Vanilla and L.H. Restless
Mac Deep Blue Green and L.H. Striving
Mac Blue Brown and L.H. Intrepid
Mac Chartreuse and L.H. Rebel
Mac Fuchsia and L.H. Fiery

Those are the ones that i have that i noticed a massive similarity in. The quality for them is pretty much the same also, so if you have one, no need to buy the other in my opinion. I know this is random but i found it so cool. Minus the fact that i have two of the same colors now!
