Recent Drugstore Purchases



I accumulated a few of the new products that are out at drugstores right now. I purchased the L’Oreal Voluminous Power Volume Collagen first about two weeks ago. I like this mascara quite a bit. It’s a drier formula that really does build up volume. It can get a little clumpy though; so if that bothers you do not buy this mascara. It has a bristle wand as opposed to a plastic one, which I like especially when I want volume. I just don’t get as much volume from plastic wands.

Then about a week ago I picked up both the Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Charm and the Dream Fresh BB Cream from Maybelline in Light/Medium Sheer Tint. I like the lip balm though this color doesn’t really stain the lips since it’s so light, so I can’t really judge how long the other colors would last on the lips. It’s nice because it isn’t drying at all. That’s so rare for a lip stain. The BB cream was a spur of the moment purchase when I went to the store to buy the lip stain basically because the packaging sucked me in. I like this product because it’s got a light finish that isn’t too dewy and actually provides some nice coverage. It won’t cover up acne all by itself, but it will cover up general unevenness in your skin. It’s also nice that it has an SPF of 30. The light/medium works on me and is even a little light when I’m self-tanning, so you may want to buy a shade darker than you think you need.






I like all of these products, but the BB cream is really the standout product to me. I would recommend you try it if you’re in the market for a product like this. The other products are nice, but not standouts. Though if you want to try a darker/brighter shade in the balm stain I would say it’s definitely worth it. I just don’t feel like I’m getting everything out of this product I could, but that’s my fault. Oh well!

Hope you’re have a good day! I’ll talk to you all later.
