Revlon 705 Gray Suede Nail Polish Review & Swatches & Boss Femme EDP Review

Revlon 705 Gray Suede Nail Polish Review & Swatches

This is a new shade! I purchased this recently from Priceline and tried it on when I got home! :)

I purchased it full price... now to find out that it is on sale at 30% off! :( Bummer!! Lol... anyhoos...

Pics:

Swatches (base coat & two coats of Gray Suede & top coat):




On the left is one coat & the right is two coats:


Pros:
- I really like the colour - perfect for the office work environment too!
- Conservative colour

Cons:
- Only lasted 2 days before it started chipping & peeling - not too much but it annoyed me
- I removed it after 3/4 days.

Would I repurchase?
It would probably take me a while to finish up this bottle, but say I dropped & broke it? Yea... I think I would buy it again! :)

Boss by Hugo Boss - Femme Eau De Parfum Review

I got this sample...

It's only 2mL & is not a spray.

Pics:








Made in UK

I found this fragrance to not be very long lasting on me.

It is feminine but I don't find it to be unique or anything out of the ordinary. 

A definate safe fragrance that doesn't stand out but would make a perfect gift for any woman in your life - I can imagine any age group wearing this fragrance! :)

Would I purchase the full size?
No


What are you wearing on your nails atm?

What fragrance are you trying out atm?

COASTAL SCENTS HAUL & REVIEW

As I had posted before Coastal Scents had a sale! :)

This mini-haul is a repurchase because I love these brushes! :)

Pics:

1st Pic:

2nd Pic:

Pros:
- relatively inexpensive
- soft
- little fall-out of brushes when washing & using

Cons:
- the colour of your powder stains & doesn't wash off the brushes
- only available online!

Will I repurchase?
In the future when I need to, yes!

I am going back on Project All Pan and will be posting my progress! :)

Have you guys tried Coastal Scents brushes? Yay or nay?

REVIEW: Coastal Scents Camo Quad - Light

So... as soon as I saw AllThatGlitters21 on YouTube do a review on these Coastal Scents concealers, I jumped on their website to check it out. I also wanted the colourful colour-correcter one, but they were OUT OF STOCK... I've looked back so many times but they still haven't seemed to restock! :( Boo!
Anyways... so I got the Camo Quad concealer palette in LIGHT.

As you can see I have used it... :)

PACKAGING

3/5

- Average packaging, seem sturdy enough but not sure...

- I like that the lid is clear - that way I can see inside lol

- I'm not wowed by it, but I think I prefer tube concealers... although they are never as creamy and opaque as these ones are...

PRICE

4/5

- Under US$10.00

- The international shipping charges are a bummer though... I wish they offered free shipping!

- I didn't have any discount codes so I got these full price, but the price isn't that bad now isn't it, so I'm okay with it! Lol. :)

PRODUCT

3/5

- Very opaque and very creamy

- Wears off within a few hours :(

- I'm not sure what to do with the white? Can anyone tell me? I tried it and it looks too white on me... it doesn't really blend into my skin colour!

- Great texture but I wish it had better staying power on me.

Has anyone else tried these yet? How do you like it?

Do you like the colour correcter one Coastal Scents also has? Would you recommend that?
