Lorac Couture Liquid Shine Lipstick in Haute and Hard Candy Hydrating Lip Stain in Tickled Pink

About a month ago Hautelook featured Lorac products for one of their events. I purchased the color Haute, which is a mix between a Barbie and baby pink. I'd been searching for this shade from different brands for awhile and I'm happy I finally found it. I'd never owned a Lorac product before this purchase so I don't have a lot of experience with this brand. However, I have an addiction of makeup, so this isn't my first lipstick, but it is my first liquid lipstick, and first purchase from Hautelook. Lots of firsts with this purchase! The lipstick was $4 on Hautelook and shipping brought it up to about $10.. Not bad for a lip color.

This post was meant to be a review for the Lorac Couture Liquid Shine Lipstick, but ended up being a review/dupe review..

As you can see from the photo, I'm pretty pale, so I was worried this color would be too bright for me, but it actually isn't. The funny thing is I unknowingly bought a dupe for this color a couple weeks before this was delivered. It's a lip stain pencil made by Hard Candy in the color Tickled Pink. The Lorac is just a shade darker than the Hard Candy pencil, and has a shinier finish.

The funny thing is that without shipping, the Lorac lippie cost less than the Hard Candy pencil, which was $5 or $6. I love both lippies, and am happy with both purchases. I plan on purchasing more Lorac lip colors because I love the formula and the fact that it isn't sticky. It also smells great too, like vanilla.

Bose Soundlink Revolve+ Bluetooth Speaker

Last week I was sent the brand new Bose Soundlink Revolve+ to review. It has bumpers to protect it from being knocked over and it's water resistant so you can set it by the pool for that upcoming Summer bash. I use it to help motivate me to clean and I love that it's loud enough to drown out my awful singing. It has a handle on the top of the speaker for easy transportation, and it won't break if you knock it over. The battery lasts up to 16 hours, and only takes about 4 hours to charge, so you don't have to be the lame guy (or girl) who kills the party because the music stopped. You can skip to the next song by double pressing the multi function button, or you can summon Siri or Google Now by holding it down. I use the Bose Connect app on my phone to control the volume and skip to the next song if I'm not near the speaker. I love the sound quality that I get from the Revolve+. It's loud and clear, there's no static or skipping due to a faulty connection.

New Adventures!!

I was offered a temporary (and hopefully more permanent) position as a brand ambassador for a new site called Beautydem. This site is made for users to find inspiration, create sets featuring beauty products. When someone purchases a product from a set, the creator of said set makes a 5% commission from the sale. It's fun and easy and completely free to join. You can make as many or as few sets as you'd like. This is one that I made, featuring sweet perfumes that smell delicious. It features Prada's 'Candy', Jessica Simpson's 'Fancy' and a few others. http://beautydem.com/set/595 Join me on www.beautydem.com !!!!

Bose QuietControl 30 Noise Cancelling headphones

Several months ago, I was given the opportunity to review QuietControl 30 Noise Cancelling wireless headphones from Bose. I'd been searching for a new set of headphones for quite awhile and was thrilled to be chosen to try a brand new product. They're great and work wonderfully. They have a setting that allows you to decide how much of the outside noise that you want to block out. You can skip to the next song and pause, as well as make calls from the headset. You can wear the headphones around your neck, allowing you to be hands-free. I love how fast they charge, and how long one charge lasts. They come with different sized ear pieces that you can switch out so that they fit inside your ear comfortably, and include a nice travel case. It has a Bluetooth range of up to 33'. I wore these while on a phone call and taking the trash out. There was no static, I didn't lose the call and I didn't hear any traffic which helped me hear the call better. These retail for $29
