L'oreal Glossy Balm in My Babydoll: Review + Swatches

I bought this as soon as it came out since I love chubby lip pencils. This one's main claim is that is is a glossy balm. These got a bit of hype when they came out, but none since. I only bought one shade, at Target, for around $6.
Standard tube in the color of the product, with silver accents. 
Slightly pinker than the tube color, more cool toned. 
Sheer and then a layered swatch. 
When wiped away it only just barely leaves a stain behind.
Lip swatch.
  • It is very glossy, and that finish does not seem to disappear
  • Since it is glossy, it does not set...which can lead to getting on your teeth 
  • It is a lovely cool toned baby pink, the shade range is wonderful
  • Not longwearing, really only wears the short length of a balm
  • Can leave the weird ring around the center of your lips...
  • No scent, but it does have a slick texture

Mac Fleshpot Lipstick | Review + Swatches

Mac lipsticks are a classic, and for me this one is a must have. Mac has raised the prices of their lipsticks overtime, and currently cost $17. They have a variety of finishes, and this one is a satin finish.  "Pale muted pinky- beige" according to mac Pulls more peach on me Can be worn alone, mixed to lighten, or in the center of lips to highlightI love this lipstick even alone, but I know not everyone would like thisScreenshot from my latest video about some of my favorite lipsticksNot as dry as a mac matte, but still enough so that it wears a long timeCan be built up or worn less intense Overall, Not every person nor every skintone can pull this color off, but personally I like it. On me, it's slightly a "concealer lips" color, but that shade is the look some desire. The formula is also very nice, if I wore this more I would try to find a dupe. There may be some listed online in-case the price does not seem reasonable to you (I just hope Mac doesn't rais…
