Dupe for the Flormar Triple Action Mascara

Hey everyone! I found a product that is basically identical to the Flormar Triple Action Mascara!

Price
The dupe is called the Zoom-In Ultimate Mascara by Flower Beauty. I purchased mine on sale at Wal-Mart for only $4.50 CAD. The mascara by Flormar retails for ‎€9.95 which is the equivalent of approximately $14.42 CAD.



Differences
The main differences are that in the dupe by Flower Beauty, it has 0.29 oz of products and the mascara by Flormar only has 0.27 oz of product. You are actually getting more product in the dupe. Also, the mascara by Flormar has Argan Oil and Olive Oil. The Zoom-In Ultimate Mascara contains D-Panthenol to help smooth the lashes and rice wax that 'helps smudge-proof colour.' The cheaper alternative by Flower Beauty comes in five different formulas: Intense Black, Black, Brown-Black, Brown and Waterproof Intense Black. I only found one formula by Flormar when I researched online.

Similarities 
They both have rose gold packaging and the shape of the tube is the exact same. The three wand heads are identical and at the top, both mascaras tell you to twist as it is a 3-in-1 product. They also have the exact same little icon. Basically, I can keep telling you the similarities but this is pretty much an identical product.

Opinion(s)
I own the Flower Beauty Zoom-In Ultimate Mascara but I do not own the similar mascara by Flormar. See another blog post I wrote that mentions the mascara by Flower Beauty and you can view more photos there. Overall, I do like this mascara but it is not one of my favourites. It does the job but it is not a holy grail mascara of mine. This is a multi-functional mascara that curls, lengthens and adds volume. I find this to be more of a gimmick but it does get the job done.


I wasn't able to find this exact product on the Flormar web site but if you do a quick Google search, you will be able to find the information you need. I also can't use a photo of the Flormar mascara because I do not have rights to it and I do not own it so that is out of the question.

Sorry for the delay in posting content. My camera that I was using to take my blog photos was on its last leg and I ordered a new camera, but I was having problems with the shipping company. Anyway, it finally got to my house and now I can start posting content again! 

Until next time,

STAY CLASSY

Maybelline FaceStudio Master Conceal Review

Hey everyone! I recently ran out of my other Maybelline Concealer which was the Age Rewind one, and I went to the store to pick-up a new concealer which is when I came across this one.


I purchased mine in the shade 'Light' because the shade 'Fair' was too pink-toned for me and I knew that would not work because I have a yellow undertone to my skin. I much prefer this applicator to the Age Rewind one which is a sponge tip, because you can control exactly how much product comes out through the small opening. Now I don't know if this is with all of the concealers in the FaceStudio Master Conceal line, but mine was rather liquid-y when squeezing product out. It is not a huge downside to this product because it does give a nice medium coverage to the skin.


It does blend out very well and I use a small brush to drag the product onto my skin to outline the areas that I want to brighten. I then grab a Beauty Blender and blend away! The tube itself is small as it is only 12 ml. I was going to try the Fit Me concealer (also by Maybelline,) but that tube would last me about a month before I run out and have to purchase again. I wanted something that would last me a bit longer. As far as price is concerned, I bought mine for $10 CAD at Wal-Mart. 

Overall, I do like this concealer and think that it is a fair price for what you are paying. I do enjoy the medium coverage and that it is more of a yellow undertone in shade 'Light.' I am curious to see how long this will last me and I will be sure to keep you updated on that!

Until next time,

STAY CLASSY.

Morphe Haul + A Mascara

Hey everyone! I recently went on the Morphe web site because I was finally convinced that I wanted to buy the highly talked about 350 Palette. There are a great range of colours which includes some gorgeous warm shades. As you can tell by the swatches, each shadow is highly pigmented. The only thing that I noticed when s watching the matte shades is that I had to pick up more product to get that opacity that I wanted. I do wish the palette was smaller in size because it is not ideal to travel with. Other than that, I am glad that I did pick-up this palette.


I finger swatched the last three shades on the right in the palette in the photo below. 


I had never ordered from the Morphe web site before and I didn’t know that you could purchase other brands! After browsing the web site, I came across Jeffree Star’s Lip Scrubs and knew I had to buy one once I seen that it came in Pumpkin Spice Latte. It smells incredible and will be perfect for getting soft lips in fall! The packaging is gorgeous and you get 30 grams of product which is 1 oz. It is 5 grams more than the lip scrubs at Lush which only contain 25 grams. They are both sugar based lip scrubs. 


There is a great range of brushes on the web site to choose from and I knew right away that I wanted a smaller brush for contouring. I bought the E46 Mini Angled Buffer Brush which is soft and the perfect size! I haven’t tried it on my face yet but it seems promising! The second brush that I purchased happens to be one of Jaclyn Hill’s favourites which is the M433 Pro Firm Blending Fluff. It is fluffy and rounded - just what I had wanted! A girl can never have enough blending brushes!

I did order the Morphe Concealer in Beige. I originally wanted a lighter shade but they were sold out so I settled on buying a slightly darker shade. I must say that I am not impressed with the formula. I don’t know if I got a bad batch, but you can tell from the photo that mine is clumpy, chunky and not appealing whatsoever. It is a thicker concealer and does blend out well. I can make this colour work but there is a lot of pink/peach undertones to it. It was only $5 USD and I am almost out of my other concealer so I needed something to replace it.


Separate from my Morphe order, I went to Wal-Mart a few days ago and wanted to share with you this mascara that I came across. It is from the Flower Line created by Drew Barrymore. I couldn’t find any information online if they are discontinuing the line or not because at Wal-Mart, the entire line was on clearance and there was barely anything left. I was tempted to purchase an eyeshadow quad but I had to refrain from doing so because I just bought the Morphe 350 palette. I digress, anyway, I got the Zoom-In Ultimate Mascara that has three different brush heads. 


It claims to lengthen, curl and add thickness to your lashes. Each brush head does something different and if you use all three brush heads on your lashes, then you will receive all three benefits. You just twist the black part on the handle to get the specific brush head you want, coat your lashes generously and you are left with beautiful customizable lashes! I purchased mine in the shade Intense Black and I only paid $4.50 for this mascara.


Until next time,

STAY CLASSY.

November Empties | 2015

Hey everyone! I decided to do my empties post a week before the month ended because I have a lot going on and don't want to miss posting this for you!


Hair
L’Oreal Volume Collagen Conditioner - I really liked this conditioner! It really made my hair silky smooth and it also made my hair noticeably thicker. I used this conditioner for about 1.5 - 2 months and seen results within that time frame.

Face
St.Ives Fresh Skin Apricot Cleanser - I really hated this face wash. It had a strange smell, the beads were useless in my opinion and I didn’t like the formula. I actually couldn’t wait to finish this product and I’m glad that it’s finished.

Neutrogena Oil-Free Eye Makeup Remover - This is probably one of the best eye makeup removers that I have ever used. It is gentle and gets just about everything off. There is the Wal-Mart version which is the Equate brand which does pretty much the same thing if you are looking for a cheaper alternative. 

Body
Nivea Anti-Perspirant Invisible for Black & White Clothes - I really disliked this product. It still transferred onto my black clothes and I would disagree that it has odour protection up to 48 hours. I wouldn’t bother to buy this product again even if it was the last one in the store.

BIC Soleil Twilight (5 Count) - I have been using BIC Soleil razors for years and really enjoy using them. They are inexpensive and really helps me get a close shave. I switch out my razor about every month and this size pack lasts me almost half the year! These blades claim to be flexible but I didn’t find that to be true in my case.

Hands
Bath & Body Works Deep Cleansing Hand Soap in Pumpkin Frost - I love this scent and I believe I finished one of these last year as well. I also think the packaging is great and eye-catching as it has sparkles! I haven’t seen any other BBW packaging that has glitter on it.

Bath & Body Works Gentle Foaming Hand Soap in Driftwood Surf - I love this scent! The best way that I can describe this scent as musky and has notes of warm amber. 

Joe Fresh Nail Polish Remover Regular - This was awful. The product leaked out from the very bottom onto my Alex 9 Drawers and created such a mess inside one of my drawers! The pump was very messy and there was often times dried up product around the applicator. 

Color Club Art Club Nail Art Lacquer in Clear - I was using this as a top coat as my other one had finished and it was great at first. It has a nice brush, a great consistency of the nail polish and this bottle came in a set. However, it didn’t last me too long and even though there is product still left in the bottle, it is hard to get to and is too gooey. It leaves random strings of polish and my top coat goes on with bubbles now so it is time for this polish to go.

Vitamins
Nature’s Bounty Hair, Skin & Nails Gummies (80 Count) - This product really needs no introduction as I’ve used up countless of these bottles and have recommended it to many friends as well as family members.

Other/Random
Wal-Mart 100% Pure Cotton Rounds (100 Count) - This worked well and since Target is no longer in Canada, I will be purchasing these from now on just for convenience sake. I still do really like my Target ones from the Up & Up brand.

Orabrush Tongue Cleaner - I have been using these for years. I just never really spoke about them. I did take a break for a few months from using them, but I have gone back to using it and really did miss using it! It helps keep your tongue nice and pink - the way a healthy tongue should look! I do find this product useful and you can find it randomly in some stores in Canada such as Walmart.

Thanks for stopping by!

Until next time,

STAY CLASSY.
