Hard Candy Haul



I am very super excited about this haul today in particular because its about Hard Candy Cosmetics. As many of you may know( or some that are new to this line) Hard candy cosmetics use to work with Urban Decay they closed their cosmetics line and launched it exclusively to be sold ONLY by walmart for walmart. So if u don't have a walmart near you, you can get it off the walmart website, but good luck cause they are always sold out on walmart.com. Now that i got that out of the way. I recently purchased Hard Candy's kaleydescope eyeshadow in "peace" and hard candy's plexi lip gloss in "Clear"(cause i wasn't sure if i was going to like their brand or not). So far i am really pleased with this product. There baked eyeshadows are A-maz-ing!. They have very little to any fallout, they can be applied wet or dry and they are highly pigmented. They don't crease without a primer on your lids so can just apply them and skip out of your door. Plus, because i have very sensitive skin, they don't irritate my eyes like Maybellines pearl eyeshadows.But wait there's more... for u animal lovers out there they DO NOT test in animals. YAY! Now that is how baked eyeshadow are suppose to be. The packaging is really cool and trendy with their little artwork on the front of the cover. Also when i first bought the product I thought the lighter side would be a champagne color, but on my skin it comes off almost white,but its hard to explain. The darker color is very true in the duo as it is on the skin. So there is no need to worry about the darker side of the duo. All in all i am really loving this thing. Would I recommend this product? You sure right i will. I think every girl should own one of these in their makeup bag. I would really love to try out the "Rush hour" kaleydescope duo next.


Here are the swatches!!




Now for the Hard Candy plexi gloss in clear. So far so good. I have used these a few times this month and i am a bit pleased. On the website it seemed like it had glitter/sparkle in it, but they really don't. It's very clear. Now i have very dry lips and when it dries out on my lips its leaves some subtle chapping. Plus its not very long lasting on my lips. It's like my lips soak up the moisture. The applicator on the gloss is also very convient as well as applies evenly.


Here's a swatch of the gloss!


Enjoy!!
