Lippy Review

I know this is an outfit blog, but due to my local KMart closing, I was able to pick up some great cosmetics at 90%.  Such a great sale, I thought I'd share.  Here are my current favs in rotation.

Revlon's Fig Jam shoes up brown with a very distinct reddish brown. I bought it thinking it would be a great chocolate.  It is not straight chocolate.

 Covergirl's Divine is PRETTY!  It is a bold magenta and a lot of fun to wear.  It reminds me of this picture I pinned on Pinterest.
 I haven't worn Maybelline's Captivating Coral yet, but I am looking forward to it
Revlon's Iced Chocolate comes off as a pretty browned mauve.  It's easily an everyday grab for my NC 40 skin tone.
 NYX's Chloe is a true magenta.
 I forsee wearing Maybelline's Electric Shock throughout the summer.
Revlon's Fuchsia is more of a hot pink than a magenta.  Believe it or not this and the above 2 pinks have completely different hues.
 LOVE LOVE LOVE this lipstick by Make Up For Ever.  $20 at Sephora (I got it from returning a gift) the lipstick is highly pigmented.  The color comes off just as it looks... a glorious shade of purple.
 Revlon's Colorburst Sunbaked has almost no shade of brown.
 Revlon's Peony is a shiny pink.  Fun but not a lot of staying power.
I wanted to try Drew Barrymore's new cosmetic line, Flower. My Little Buttercup is anything to rant and rave about.  It is the EXACT color of my complexion, so I don't plan on giving it away. 
Revlon's Crystal Water was $1.  I got it because it was so cheap.  I thought it would have more shimmer, but it is more of a clear gloss.  You get the iridescent effect when you pile on the gloss.
Have you gotten any new cosmetics lately?

What to Wear to Work series

Tweed and boucle jackets are timeless and classy. I chose this look as today's inspiration for what to wear to work. I have on black leggings, black knee boots, a sea foam color shirt and a black and white tweed jacket.
