Mini Reviews: Bite Beauty, Urban Decay, Cover FX, & Dose of Colors
I got this sampler of lip masks from an order a couple months ago. It came just in time for this fall weather that is drying my lips out! I have been using these religiously every night with my skincare routine and then I go to bed while wearing them. This has been a life saver for my lips. They're a thicker consistency (like an actual mask) than a lip gloss, but not enough to bother me especially when I'm sleeping. These have a sweet smell (not strong though) like other Bite Beauty products. All three shades are nice, but again I'm just sleeping in them so that's not a big deal to me.
This is what the sample packet (this is a new one) looks like. Each one lasted me close to a week of use. The full size product is in a tube, so I know those would last for a very long time! I definitely will be purchasing a full size, but I just happened to receive another sample packet!

I've been sticking with my "holy grail" Tarte Shape Tape for far too long and decided to branch out on concealers. I've heard great things about this and I've really liked using it! The coverage is really there! I'm in the shade fair neutral and it's a good shade for my fair complexion. It's lighter than my actual skin-tone (just how I like my concealer to be!) and does a great job brightening the high-points of my face, while adding coverage to problem areas. The wear time is excellent and this is true to the name "weightless" on the face. It has worked well without creasing with the foundations and powders I've used while trying it out. The only issue I have with this product is the smell. Have you tried Wet n Wild Photo Focus Foundation? Then you know that strong paint like smell. The smell of this reminds me of that. Is this concealer better than Shape Tape? No, not to me, but it's close! I really do like this concealer.

This has become a favorite! I've mentioned in my "beauty favorites" that I was a little worried about trying these enhancer drops because I thought they would be an oily consistency. These have been in my Sephora shopping cart online so many times, but I never took the plunge. Until this cute little sample bottle showed up in my Play! by Sephora monthly subscription. Then I HAD to try it out. I'm so mad at myself for waiting so long! These are not oily whatsoever! I apply them before any powder (like I do with any liquids) and it's so bright it stands out under it! This really is so stunning on the face! I want more of the shade range, but this shade does look nice on fair-tones. This is long-wearing and is not for someone who wants a natural glowy highlight. This is an intense shine, but your highlight will always be "on fleek" while wearing this!

Dose of Colors {Desi X Katy} Collection
This "mini reviews" should be labeled a favorites because all these products are hits today! I love Desi (Desi Perkins) and Katy (LustreLux) so much! They have the best personalities and aren't afraid to be their selves. If you need a new Youtuber to watch that will make you laugh in each video, then you should look them up! I thought it was so awesome to see them collaborate with a company in general, but also so exciting to see them collaborate together with the company! I've honestly have never tried Dose of Colors products, but I've heard amazing things so that made me really interested in this line even more! Both girls are tanner than I and from what I see from other reviews I feel the highlighters from this line would be too dark and/or too gold for my skin-tone so I passed on them even though they're gorgeous! I decided to get the eyeshadow quad (palette review coming tomorrow!), one liquid lipstick, one lipstick, and the "over the top" gloss. Mind you this was when they went live with the last restock, so while adding them to my cart the gloss sold out! I was so bummed. I still got my hands on the eyeshadow quad and the other two lip products that I want to mention today.
This wasn't the shade I was intitionally wanting, but I ended up with it. The other nude would have looked a lot better with my complexion, but nevertheless, this lipstick is really nice. I still want to get my hands on the lighter shade before it's out of stock, but this lipstick made me step out of my comfort zone a lot. It's more of a yellowish-orange nude tint on me. I've worn it with two looks and had mixed emotions on it. I like it, but it's a little different on me. If you have a tanner complexion, then this would be gorgeous on you! The formula is great and wears well. The scent is sweet, but not strong.
Can we also mention how incredibly beautiful the packaging is on these?!

This is the perfect orange red. It does the name justice for sure! I've seen this shade on every complexion out there and it's stunning on everyone! People are not kidding about Dose of Colors liquid lipsticks formula either! It's amazing! They're so comfortable, long-wearing, and doesn't over dry-out my lips! The pigmentation in this shade is crazy good. This too has such pretty packaging and the same sweet (this one is stronger than the lipsticks) scent. This shade is going to be a summer go-to!

I'm happy with both of these lip products and thankfully they are both in stock still! This is their last restock on the whole line, so if you're interested I would get them fast!
