ARE YOU READY TO RRRRRUMBLE?! 
When i say rumble, i mean read, and when i say ready, i mean, eagerly anticipating this rather mammoth 3-part review? ;) 
Anyway, as i have been a naughty blogger, i thought i'd spring 3 amerrrrican products on you!:) 

1st up is Covergirl's natureluxe gloss balm in Clay (260).  
It's definitely leaning more towards the balm side, as its quite moisturising and doesn't go dry and patchy like other lipsticks do. It may not look it in the rather fuzzy/unflatteringly coloured picture (huzzah photobooth -.-) but it matches the natural colour of my lips to a tee! I also like the sheen it gives, which isn't frosty/shimmery, just very...balmy. 'scuse the awful pun :) 
Downsides aren't really a big thing, i mean...the colour is quite autumnal and natural, which i like...but it's quite different to the swatch on the CG website. No issues, i mean i love it! For me, it is the ultimate 'toffee' colour nude. It definitely looks darker in the stick thing, but no issues! i quite like that it doesn't take much to build up the   moisturised look, and its been in my blazer pocket all day long for touch ups! 

Next up is CG wetslicks lip gloss in Peaches n Gleam. 
Firstly, i would like to say BOO YOU COVERGIRL! In no realm, universe or galaxy is this peach! It leans (well, recategorizes itself) as a corally pink, which, although i like, is not nude/peach. At. All.
Besides this, i actually quite like it. It shows up a bit dark (but i have layered it on top of the natureluxe lip balm :) :) so it comes out darker. It definitely has the wet look, which is...well, what it says it does, but transfers easily and feels quite damp/sticky. I wasn't expecting it to be matte or anything, before the little voice in your head goes "WETslicks - take the hint!", i just hoped it'd be more soft and kissable. ;) Not that i currently have anyone to kiss. Sadly. Working on it though! 

Last is CG's lashblast volume mascara  (which is why i took the picture covering..unsuccessfully, my face:) ) its definitely a good mascara, and makes my eyes look rather huuuuuuuge, i just...was expecting fireworks!:L I got it in black/brown, because my hair isn't dark dark so i thought, merh! 
Anyway, very good mascara, from a consistent brand, and stays put all day! :) Well, unless you sob with laughter, like i did. Then a small smudge under the eye is forgivable!:L :') 


Hopefully it was worth the wait! Coming up soon is Tarte Amazonian blush in dollface- and why it was sooooo worth the price tag! :D 


ciaou bellas! have a happy monday!
