$1 Lip Gloss!??! Profusion Feline Lip Luster.....

Wednesday, April 08, 2015

Hey Everybody!

Along with finding the Profusion Luxy Lips glosses, picked up the Profusion Feline Lip Luster glosses for a $1 a piece also at Walgreens. I think my gloss love is coming back in my life!! After a winter of heavy colors, I'm looking forward to just keeping it light on the lips.


 The Feline Lip Luster glosses have no names just like the Luxy Lips glosses. I still love you though, Profusion. :) But, work on some names. Call me if you need some names.
 The glosses swatch texture reminded me of  Maybelline Color Senstational  Elixir glosses. They have good pigmentation with a light jelly texture.



Lips swatched with the purple shade.

The Feline Lip Lusters are similar to the Maybelline Color Elixir in texture. If there were other colors and for $1, I would buy all the colors! I actually liked this gloss. It's not sticky at all and color wears great.  The pinks didn't look good on my skin tone, but I might can layer them over a lipstick. This is why Profusion could stand to make a couple of more colors of these!!  But the purple is pretty and wayyy more vibrant in the photo than in real life.


So are these glosses worth $1?? Let me know in the comments!!





$1 Lip Gloss! Profusion Luxy Lips.....

Hey Everyone!!

I've been looking for these Profusion Luxy Lips since around the first of the year. I heard a bit of buzz about them being very pigmented from some of my favorite bloggers. Finally, I spotted them at Walgreens in their $1 beauty section. I dug and dug and only find three colors.


 The Luxy Lips have no separate names as far as I could tell. Not even on the sealed plastic.

Here are some swatches and initially, the glosses looked very promising. 

The swatched texture is similar to LA Girl Glazed Lip Paints. I even had to apply them like I apply the Lip Paints, with a lip brush because a little seemed goes a little long.

However, on the lips, they apply very uneven and spotty. I had to go over a couple of times to get an even coat of color. The light pink is too light for my complexion and the orange-red color doesn't suit my complexion either. I found the bright pink to be decent but the application was just not good.

These glosses are definitely $1 glosses in quality. I still might play with the bright pink for the summer.

Have you seen these Profusion Luxy Lips glosses on your neck of the woods?? Let me know in the comments!!








Nail Polish Haul!! CVS, Goodwill, Walgreens, Dollar General, Big Lots!

Wednesday, March 25, 2015

Hey Everyone!!

I've been picking up polish and sliding up on some SERIOUS deals in the last couple of days. I look all the polish I've collected in a week and well, it looked like a haul. LOL! Let's get started.....



 CVS

CVS had deal on a new line of polish they are carrying called Pop-arazzi or Poparazzi 2 for $3. I wasn't impressed with the color shades but the line has several nail help polishes like ridge fillers, top coats, growth formulas, etc. All the clear polishes that Poparazzi carries, you can't tell them apart, unless you look at the label at the bottom. My CVS had them displayed wrong so check the bottom label.
 See. SMH!!
***SPOILER: Skip the Quick Dry Top Coat, it's a regular top coat, nothing quick about it. It's trash***
 Walgreens

Grabbed this cute duo of polish out of one of those $1 shelf things at the back of the store.
 Dollar General

One of my Dollar Generals is carrying a new polish line by Broadway Nails called Gel Strong Nail Polish. I've already wore the left one, Peach Macaroon and it sucked in quality, chipped with a day or two. The right one is called UltraViolet.
 Big Lots

If you follow me on Instagram (Rural Glamour), you saw I hit the mother load of drugstore makeup yesterday. I grabbed these two Sally Hansen Salon Manicure polishes in Mudslide and Grass Slipper. Salon Manicure is one my favorite drugstore polish lines and runs around $8 regular price so this was a STEAL!!


Goodwill

I went into one of my favorite Goodwill stores and they had a ton of unopened makeup from Target but the prices on some was ridiculously high for damaged makeup. I did luck up and grab three Sally Hansen Triple Shine polishes: Dream Sequins,Wavy Blue and Play Koi. I've never used this line of SH polish, mainly because it's priced like the Salon Manicure. Super happy to scoop these up for a $1 a piece!
