ColourPop X Kathleen Lights Where The Night Is Collection: Review and Swatches

       Hey guys! I am excited about this review because I love ColourPop and their amazing shadows and lipsticks. When I heard that youtuber Kathleen Lights was doing a collab with colourpop I was so excited and knew that I had to buy her collection. I know she came out with a previous collection, but I was more excited for this one because the colors were more my style.  The Kathleen Lights Where The Night Is consist of 4 super shock shadows. Kathleen Light also came out with two lippie pencils and two lippie sticks. If you would like to know more and see swatches and review please scroll down. :)

The Colourpop X Kathleen Lights Where the Night Is Eye Shadow Collection retails at $20.00. Her lip products that go with her collection are sold separately. The lippie stix and lippie pencil retail at $5.00 each. 

I love coloupop's packaging. It is nice and simple.

Look how gorgeous these colors are!! These colors are truly pigmented.

Swatches!

This picture of swatches do not do the colors justice. They are much much much more beautiful in person. 

Telepathy (ultra metallic)- Is a true bright gold. I do not own a color like this in my collection. This color is absolutely gorgeous. It is much more vibrant in person.

Midnight(metallic)- Is a dark olive color. Perfect for smoking up a look by adding it to the outer corners of the eye.

Porter(metallic)- is a burgundy color. 

Weenie(Pearlized) -Is a rose gold color. This color is my favorite in the entire collection. If you love rose gold and are looking a rose gold shadow this is the one to get. I would buy another one of these because it is such a gorgeous color and I do not own a color like this in my collection.

Taurus Lippie Stix and Lip Pencil (matte)- is a true red brown color. I do not own a color like this in my collection. This color is so beautiful. Perfect brown lipstick.

Aquarius Lippie Stix and Lip Pencil(Cream)-  is a light brown nude shade. Depending on your skin tone if you have light complexion it will look more pinky nude and if you have olive and darker complexion it will be more on the light nude side.

These lip products have wonderful pigmentation and go on so smooth. The matte lippie stix in Taurus is not drying at all. Wonderful formula for a matte lipstick.

           As you can tell I love the Kathleen Lights Where the Night Is Collection along with her lippie stix and pencils. She did a wonderful job selecting the colors on everything. The colourpop eyeshadows have amazing pigmentation and stay put all day long with no signs of creasing. When applying the shadows make sure you use a synthetic brush because it picks up the color well. Using your fingers to apply shadow on the lid give greater color payoff . What I do is I apply the color first with a synthetic brush to my lids then apply another coat of eyeshadow with my fingers. As for the lipsticks and pencils they have wonderful color payoff and go on so smoothly onto the lips. I absolutely love colourpop lippie stix. They have wonderful formula and are so affordable. If you do not own any coloupop eyeshadows or lip products the Colourpop X Kathleen Lights Where The Night is Eyeshadow Collection along with her lip products is a good collection to start with. Trust me you will not be disappointed. :) If you do not want to purchase the full collection you can buy the eyeshadows individually.

My Top Five Fall Lipsticks

As salaamu alaykum and hello lovelies. Wow it is already September! Where has the Summer gone? I am going to miss Summer, but one of my favorite seasons is the Fall. I am looking forward to the cooler weather,the changing color of the leaves, and pumpkin scent candles. 

     

     With Fall comes change and also a change in lipstick colors. Today I will be posting My Top Five Fall Lipsticks. I didn't purchase any new Fall lipsticks because I haven't had the chance, but when I do, I will definitely show them to you guys :). Until then, I figured I show you the ones that I already own.

When I think of Fall I think of red,purple, burgundy,maroon and brown lipsticks colors. Yes, I still think brown is a nice lip color :).

Swatches

Here are My Top Five Fall Lipsticks

#1

Maybelline Color Sensational($5.50)- Plum Paradise- is a beautiful Plum Red color. I have to admit I really forgot about this lipstick and happy that I rediscovered it again. If you are looking for a color and can't decide if you want plum or red, then this color is the perfect plumy red color. 

#2

RevlonColor Burst Lip Butter Fig Jam($6.48)- Do not let the dark color alarm you. When you try it on it applies as a beautiful sheer brownish wine color. I love it. It is a unique color and I think it is perfect color to wear for the fall.

#3

Rimmel London Lasting Finish by Kate Lipstick in 09($4.97)- Is a berry red color. The color red is a classic color you can wear anytime of the year. I like to wear this color the most in the fall and is the perfect pop of color to wear that won't look loud for this time of year. 

#4

Nyx Round Lipstick- Medusa($3.99)- Is a deep purple color. I must admit when you first apply it, it is a bit dark.So what I like to do is just blot my lips with tissue and it changes to a more softer plum color which is gorgeous. Another hidden gem that I rediscovered.

                                                                 


                                                                    #5

Nyx Round Lip Stick- Summer Love($3.99)-Is a Mauvey purple color. If you are not into deep purple colors this is a nice alternative. This is a more softer toned purple and nice to wear on days when you do not want to wear too much color.

These lipstick colors are still available to purchase.You can find these lipsticks at nyxcosmetics.com,Ulta,Target,Walmart and your local drugstore.

There you have it lovelies. My Top Five Fall Lipsticks. During the Fall, I am going to be wearing more purple and burgundy colors. I think those are this year's fall colors to own. I hope you enjoyed my blog post.
