~Rimmel London Glam Eyes Eye Shadow Review!~

Hey everyone!

This is a review on the Rimmel London Glam’ Eyes Eye Shadow in the shades: Night Jewel, Spicy Bronze, Glam Ice, Celestial Sapphire, and Posh Peacock.




Here is a bit of information on the product. This soft, silky formula delivers bold, brilliant and glamorous eyes with even, smooth, crease-proof application and high color impact. Lavishly pigmented for longwearing, stay true color, the pressed powders are embossed with Rimmel London’s signature crown and housed in a glamorous black compact.

~Night Jewel
~Glam Ice

Rimmel London has once again outdone themselves with their beautiful new Glam’ Eyes eye shadows! The colors are rich and beautiful and perfect for summer, with just a hint of attitude. These eye shadows blend out easily and will tend to last 3 to 4 hours.


~Celestial Sapphire


~Spicy Bronze

The packaging of the Rimmel London Glam’ Eyes eye shadows are sleek, stylish, and regal. I love that the lids are see-through, so I instantly know what color I am picking up. The sponge applicators are very effective in applying the eye shadows evenly and quickly. I especially love the royal touch of the crown imprint on the shadows, it makes me feel like the princess that I am!

~Posh Peacock
The product retails for $3.49 a piece.

Pros:

~Smooth texture
~Beautiful, rich colors
~Packaging is stylish, sleek, and regal
~Sponge applicator applies product with ease.

Cons:

~Only lasts 3 to 4 hours

Overall, I rate these eye shadows at 4.5 out of 5 sugarcubes! Rimmel London eye shadows are great to always have on hand, when you want an effortless, beautiful appearance on the go.

XoXo,
Whitney

~ Rimmel London Royal Gloss Review!~

Hey everyone!

This is a review on the Rimmel London Royal Gloss in the shades: Bubble Blush, Gourmet, Berry Crush, Twinkle Pink, and Delicious.



Here is a bit of information about the product. This deliciously wet-looking sheer gloss is enriched with Vitamins A, C and E as well as Royal Jelly. In 10 irresistible juicy, pearly shades, the great tasting, non-sticky gloss is enhanced with the sweet scents of bubble gum, chocolate and peach. A glide on applicator makes this great-tasting gloss extra easy to apply.

From Top to Bottom:
~Gourmet
~Berry Crush
~Twinkle Pink

Rimmel London’s new Royal Glosses are non-sticky with a beautiful pearlescent glow that leaves my lips tasting and smelling as sweet as candy! I love to wear these glosses over lipsticks or by themselves. I occasionally need a touch up every 3 to 4 hours after eating or drinking, which is perfect for me, because I use these glosses to replace dessert.

From Top to Bottom:

~Bubble Blush
~Delicious

I adore the packaging with the squeezable tubes, which allows for easy application without the worries of dropping a wand applicator. These royal glosses have fun and tasty names that make me feel like a kid in a candy store!

This product retails for $4.99.

Pros:
~Non-stick
~Very glossy
~Beautiful colors
~Delicious scent
~Sweet taste
~Yummy names

Cons:
~None

Overall, I rate this product at 5 out of 5 sugarcubes! This lip gloss is perfect to keep in your pocket for a juicy pout anytime!

~Milani Neon Nail Lacquer Review!~

Hey everyone!

This is a review on the Milani Neon Nail Lacquer in the shade Techno Red!


Here is a bit of information about the product. New specialty nail lacquers created to give your nails a POP of brilliance. These bright neon shades capture the explosion of color that has made an impact of the latest color trends and are here to stay.



This nail lacquer is a beautiful, vibrant neon red with a hint of orange. The formula is a bit sheer, so two coats are necessary for a deep color. Make sure the first coat is completely dry, before applying the second coat, so there is no problem with streaking. The nail lacquer contains a very strong polish smell, but once it dries, the odor disappears.

I really like the packaging of this nail lacquer. The bottle is not as big as other nail polishes, which means it will fit easier into compact spaces. Also, the brush is narrower than other polishes, allowing it to be used for any size nail.

This product retails for $4.99.

Pros:
~Beautiful, rich color
~Lasts for 2 to 3 days
~Smaller brush than other polishes
~Cute packaging

Cons:
~Takes two coats
~Strong odor

Overall, I rate this product at 4 out of 5 sugarcubes! This is a great nail lacquer to use to give your nails that sexy pop of color!

~Go Nails Natural Nail Growth Treatment Review!~

Hey everyone!


This is a review on the Go Nails Natural Nail Growth Treatment!



In the past, my nails have always been petite and hard to grow, which has made it almost impossible to use nail polish without making a huge mess.

Go Nails Natural Nail Growth Treatment has accomplished wonders for my nails! They have grown longer and healthier than ever.

~Before

~After 9 days

Go Nails is a non-greasy lotion that you rub into your cuticles and nails daily. It only takes 10 seconds for the lotion to be fully absorbed. A little goes a long way with this product, which means you get more for your money! If there is any lotion left over, just rub it into your hands, and it will instantly soften them.


I love the convenient pump, because it allows for control over the amount of product dispensed. The packaging is petite and cute, and can easily be taken on the go with you!


This product retails for $25.00.

Pros:
~Non-greasy
~Faster nail growth
~Stronger nails
~Light citrus sent
~Cute packaging

Cons:
~None!

Overall, I rate this product at 5 out of 5 sugarcubes! This is a great product to always have, so that your nails look and feel beautiful at all times!

~Jordana InColor Fabu Liner Review!~

Hey everyone!

This is a review on the Jordana InColor Fabu Liner in Black!



Here is a bit of information about the product.Felt-tip precision. No skipping or dragging. Convenient & easy to use. Dramatic eye definition.



This liquid eye liner glides on smooth and does not smear once it’s dry; however, it can take a very long time to dry. The eye liner has an intense black color that will lasts for hours. The felt-tip applicator dispenses product evenly, but I find that it is a bit too large to work with. The larger applicator makes it challenging to have a precise line.


The packaging of the product is long and thin like a pencil, which means that it can be easily stored anywhere so that you always have it on hand with you.

This product retails for $2.99.

Pros:
~Does not smear
~Lasts for hours
~Evenly dispenses product
~Intense color

Cons:
~The felt-tip applicator is a bit large
~Hard to have precise application of product
~Takes a long time to dry

Overall, I rate this product 3.0 out of 5 sugarcubes! It is a decent, inexpensive product to have on hand for trips and prowling around town!

~Pink Grapefruit

The packaging of the glosses is slender; it is about the same size as an average pen. The click-up application along with the brush makes the glosses super easy and fun to use!

~Jordana Cosmetics’ Incolor Pretty Shine Luxury Gloss Review!~

Hey everyone!

This is a review on the Jordana Cosmetics’ Incolor Pretty Shine Luxury Gloss in the shade Darling.


Here is a bit of information from the website. Glistening super-shine formula. Contains Jojoba Oil to lock in moisture. Lavish, rich, divine color. Ultra glossy finish.
This is a sheer gloss with just a hint of color. I’ll wear it by itself or over any lip color for a subtle shine. The formulation is non-sticky, but due to the glitter in the product, the gloss has a slight gritty feel to it. The gloss lasts on your lips for 1 to 2 hours before touchups are needed.

This gloss has a sweet candy aroma that reminds me of Strawberry Pez. I just love the aroma; it makes me feel as if I am sugar coating my lips! The packaging of the gloss is sleek and very high quality!

This product retails for $1.99.

Pros:
~Non-sticky
~Sheer color
~Subtle shine
~Delicious smell
~High quality packaging
~Affordable price

Cons:
~Glitter makes it gritty feeling
~Does not last for long periods of time

Overall, I rate this product at 3.5 out of 5 sugarcubes. I believe there are other glosses that Jordana Cosmetics offer that are better quality. However, considering the price, it is a good gloss for young girls just getting into makeup.
