Few New Bits of Wet n' Wild
Happy Summer!
Recently I went into Walmart and i saw that Wet n Wild had a few new bits on display. Of course, I am a huge fan of their wallet friendly prices so i picked up some bits. First I picked up make up wipes called Under The Sheets make Up Wipes for under 3 dollars. I have noticed that make up wipes have started being really expensive so when I saw these I figured I'd give them a go. So far, I've been liking them. They are not drying and aren't irritating. Next, I picked up the Coloricon Contour Kit. Personally, this is going to be too light for me in the summer but I think I will get good use out of it in the Fall. Also the formula of both the matte bronzer and matte highlight is very smooth. Lastly, I got the Coverall Correcting Palette. There have been a lot of high end correcting palettes coming out so I thought this could be a good dupe. I was not very impressed with the texture of these. They were cream but almost felt chalky and stiff. I personally would not buy this one again. However, the other two are definitely winners!
What are you looking forward to this summer?
Lots of love,

Review: Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Matte Bronzer
My international giveaway is still opened! Click Here
It happened guys, I discovered the perfect contouring bronzer. Yes I am talking about the much loved Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Matte Bronzer. I recently purchased the Ulta Summer Glam Set and this was one of the gems in it. I highly recommend this set! I received a deluxe sample size in medium/deep and I will definitely be getting the full size one after this one runs out. I think this has changed the whole way I look at contouring. Definitely going to be a staple make up item for me this summer.
Let's start off with the smell. It smells like hot chocolate. Yum I almost want to eat it! There is something about make up that smells like chocolate that makes me love it 100 times more. The packaging is also really nice for a sample. It is plastic with Too Faced carved into it in gold. It also has a good sized mirror in it. The formula of this bronzer is contouring perfection. It is a matte bronzer that looks absolutely amazing when the sun hits it. It goes on like butter and gives you amazingly sculpted cheeks in one swipe. I use this with my ELF Small Stippling Brush (review here) to contour my cheeks, my nose, my jawline and on my temples and oh my goodness my face looks so sculpted! It looks like I've been at the beach for the last week and the sun hit me perfect on my cheeks, jaw, and nose. I honestly don't think I can go back to any other bronzer for contouring ever again. However, I don't like it as much for a whole face glow. I feel like my NARS Laguna (review here) does a better job of giving a full face bronze effect.
Overall, I think this is one of the best bronzers I have ever tried. If you have an Ulta by you, I highly recommended picking up the Summer Glam Set with this amaizng bronzer in it!
What do you use to contour?
