Avon’s new Glow Bronzing Gel is a “lightweight, buildable bronzer that instantly gives you the look of a sunkissed tan.” This innovative new product is promised to be stain and streak free. Avon offers two shades; Light Bronze and Deep Bronze, my review is featuring Light Bronze. This liquid bronzer contains 1 fl oz (30ml), the same amount in a standard foundation. The full price for the Glow Bronzing Gel will be $11, but it’s currrently available for $4.99, which is how much I paid for it.Click through for my thoughts on this product.

 Pixi’s much buzzed about Correction Concentrate is a “highly pigmented correcting concealer that instantly erases darkness, softens, and blurs lines. Skin immediately looks fresh, rested, bright, and youthful. This ultimate ‘good night’s sleep in a jar’ camouflage cream is correction perfection in a pot.” This tone corrector contains “Vitamin E to nourish and protect, Vitamin C to brighten and revitalize, Vitamin A for an anti-aging effect, and rose hip extract for it’s cell regenerating and skin elasticity boosting properties.” Pixi is a brand that really appeals to me, but I’ve always felt like the products were overpriced. Luckily, Correction Concentrate is one of the brand’s most affordable products, retailing for $15 for 3g (.1 oz) of product. Pixi is exclusively available in Target, as well as the brand’s website. I bought this concealer for myself as a birthday goody after hearing my favorite YouTuber EmilyNoel 83 rave about it and compare it to pricey products like Benefit’s Erase Paste and Bobbi Brown’s Corrector. Pixi products are cruelty free.Click through for the full review.

 Mirabella’s Prime For Face&Eyes is a “silky smooth clear formula primer that slides on the skin, creating the perfect base for any Mirabella foundation.” Mirabella warns you to avoid using this product near the lash lines and to use this primer sparingly. I received a full size tube of this multi-use primer in my December Ipsy Bag. Mirabella’s primer contains no parabens or dyes. This primer contains .45 fl oz (12.85) and retails for $29. Click through for my thoughts on this primer. *very negative review*

 NYX says its “hard not to sparkle with one of our ultra shimmering loose shadow powders that can be used on eyes, cheeks, even lips. These finely milled eyeshadows are high impact, long lasting, and a little addictive.” So addictive that NYX offers a total of thirty shades. This review is for Yellow Gold, which NYX calls a “light gold”. NYX’ Ultra Pearl Manias are among the the most affordable pigments on the market, they only cost $3 for 5ml (.06 fl oz). Click through for my full review.

Here are a couple tips on how to properly paint on some twiggies. Click through!
