Top - Lip gloss (Devotion) Bottom - Lipstick (True) |
Hey there!
So Victoria's Secret is doing away with their
makeup line. That means we can pick up lots of things for a steal. But, it also
means if we like those things we can't get more. That's always the dilemma with
these "everything's gotta go" type of sales. If you love it, you're
kinda screwed.
No worries. New things come out all the time so
when old things go away, it makes room. Victoria's Secret is simply making
room.
Anywho, I didn't go crazy at VS. I just picked
up a few things - a Color Drama Lipstick (True), a Color Quench Intense Lip
Gloss (Devotion) and a Metallized eyeshadow (Gold Card). See, I didn't get a
lot. But, I did get colors that looks sooo pretty.
But now, I'm kinda mad that I got any of them.
Yep. I said that.
The lipstick is the equivalent to a lip butter.
It's a patchy color that goes on and then 30 minutes later is almost gone. No
lie -- 30 minutes later people. So I thought I'd just reapply a few times and
that resulted in dry lips. By noon my lips felt like the Sahara Desert. I had
to soak them in lip balm all afternoon.
The lipgloss is a very pretty color but it
isn't very pigmented. The color looks nice on my hand but that was like 3
swipes of the wand. It doesn't last either. I used lip liner and then tried to make
the color better but it's like the gloss wouldn't adhere to the liner color.
Weird, huh?
The eyeshadow is a pretty color in the pot. On
my eyes? No pigment. I used primer and packed it on and I got nuthin'. It
wasn't a good choice in color. There's a tiny bit of color. I will give it one
more try with a cream shadow underneath. But I don't have faith that it will
work.
So there! I purchased three items and there is
no worry that I will want to replenish and can't. I really had high hopes for
this makeup line but...
...I guess there's a reason they didn't make
it.
Do you have anything from the Victoria's Secret
makeup line? What do you think of them?
