Swatches:Femme Couture Mineral Effects eyeshadows



Hey guys! Sorry I missed 2 blogs! :( I'll try to catchup! But in the meantime, here are swatches of these mineral eyeshadows. They are $4.99-$5.99 at Sally Beauty Supply. They won't last long if you don't have primer, but they are very pigmented!
I have 11/12 of the shades (I lost one :( )
Okay, here are swatches:

Sterling

Blue Heaven
This looks way different and more vibrant without flash, so I'm showing both.


No Flash
Flash 

Blush
Im sad because when I swatched this, l the pinkish and blue glitters wiped away πŸ˜ͺ

Moving on..

Moroccan Sand

Caramel

Unfortunately this one stained my skin and left the area where the shadow was blotchy and brown 

Truffle

Sandy Beach
 
My favorite of all.. Almost like glitter.

Cocoa
Almost like cocoa powder. It also stains blotchy.

Golden Oasis

Chocolate Brown
And last but very not least...

Rose Quartz

Vaseline lip therapy vs Smith's Rosebud salve

I decided to do a "vs" video today. This one is drugstore vs high end/sephora. I recently purchased the Vaseline lip therapy and I realized both products are Petrolium based and have a 'light rose scent' also a slight pink tint. So I thought, before I open my Vaseline balm, I should review them and do a first Impression on the Vaseline one. I also recently got the china glaze sunsational cremes In the mail so I'm doing my first nail swatch thing! So enough talking, let's start!

Smith's Rosebud Lip Salve,$6, Sephora
Scent: light and rosey, but I love sweet rose scents.
Amount:.8oz. Not bad for $6. You get a better deal by .05 of an ounce if you do the math 
Obviously, this is used. But the Vaseline one isn't, and I'm kinda nervous trying itπŸ™Š 

Vaseline lip therapy® rosy lips,$1.89 
Scent:different, more subtle, rose scent. Still love it. 
Amount:.25 oz. (you get a better deal if you buy the salve)
The tint is definately darker. Here's a swatch next to each other.
Left is Smiths, right is Vaseline.
Love the color of Vaseline's, but rosebud is the winner for moisturizing properties. The Vaseline one is cute for on the go, but rosebud will remain my favorite.
