ColourPop!!!

So it’s been a minute.  Life gets hectic! I found myself drowning in both of my son’s birthdays, two vacations in the month of April, and then the 500 days of May at school and finishing up the year.  So yeah, I took a temporary hiatus from this wonderful blog that I love so much! But, it’s summer now, and I am ready and rejuvenated and excited to grow and develop Littles and Life by Lauren!

The one thing I have discovered about myself is that I have become a makeup junkie.  I LOVE MAKEUP.  It’s not like I even wear it every day, but lately, I am obsessed with discovering new beauty products, both high-end and drugstore.  A few months ago I discovered ColourPop cosmetics, which is this fabulous makeup company that has trendy, amazingly high-quality products at a drugstore price.  Since discovering it, I seriously cannot stop ordering it.  Yeah, it’s not in a store, so you can’t try on colors, but the prices are seriously so cheap that you don’t mind taking a chance on the fun colors.

Various lip colors and formulas

Pressed shadows usually come with a free palette when you buy so many

My favorite thing to buy from ColourPop is their lip products.  Lately I have been OBSESSED with wearing lipstick, something that I never really ventured into before.  See below my favorite lip formulas from ColourPop, and please ignore the selfies and just look at the wonderful lip colors!!

LIPPIE STIX-

These are as close to a traditional lipstick formula as you can get.  They are creamy, apply easily, and have a pretty long wear.  They are hard to mess up and they have a wide-range of colors.  Some of my favorite colors are Lumiere, Button, and Oh Snap.

ULTRA SATIN LIP

This formula is matte and super long-wearing! You have to be a little more careful when you apply it, but once it’s on, it’s ON. Some of my favorites in this formula are London Fog, Chandelier, Strip, and Dopey.

BLOTTED LIP and ULTRA BLOTTED LIP

This is one of the most interesting formulas in my opinion and my favorites.  These feel like you are wearing nothing once they are on and are almost stain-like, like you’ve just had a popsicle.  The color also is long-wearing.  Some of my favorites are Split, Deja Vu, and Lolly.
