Swatches - Revlon - Limited Edition Lip Glosses - Electric Chrome Amazing Spiderman 2 Collection

Hello, everyone!

Yesterday I put up a post about the Limited Edition display for the Electric Chrome Amazing Spiderman 2 collection.  In that display were three limited edition lip glosses.  Today I decided to pick all three of the lip glosses up.  The lip glosses have a lot of shimmer, so I am a little unsure of how often I will use them on the weekdays, but I bet I will have a lot of fun with them on the weekends.  Yes, even the blue one.

YMMV - Target Clearance - Maybelline Eyeshadows

Hello, everyone!

While at Target this afternoon, I took a quick stroll through the beauty department.  It is that time of year where they are starting to clearance out a lot of the beauty goods.  I was prepared to leave with an arm full of goodies or, as often happens at my Target, in disappointment.  I was not prepared to see what I did see, which was all Maybelline Eyeshadows being put on clearance.

I am sure by now we are all aware that the old Maybelline quads, trios, duos, and singles are going away for the new slimline boxy packaging.  Those  are being clearanced at almost every store across the country.

(Left: New, Right: Old)

This afternoon I noticed something totally odd.  The entire Maybelline eyeshadow display was pretty much empty.  Including the Eyestudio quads.  These quads normally retail for $7.99 and have been marked down to $5.48.

Flabbergasted and thinking this was a mistake, I took a few of the ones I did not own to the register and sure enough they rang up for $5.58.

I ended up with four eyeshadows for $17.75.  I don't know if this is going on all over, but it can't hurt to check it out.  The Maybelline Eyestudio quads are some of the best quality eyeshadows at drugstore prices right now.  Good luck and remember, your mileage might vary!

Swatches - New Maybelline EyeStudio Quad in Plum Passion

Hello everyone,

I do apologize for not posting more routinely.  I have been busy with work and school, but I am back today to talk about a lovely new limited edition item I found last night.  While shopping at my local Bed, Bath, and Beyond store I saw this wonderful Maybelline display.

It is called "A Whole New Twist on Black".  Which is interesting, as there is only one black product in the whole display (the mascara on the right).  The display contains four mascaras in four different colors: blue, purple, green, and black.  It has three eyeliners also in blue, purple, and green.  And the star of the show in my opinion are the three new Eyestudio quads, also in (you guessed it) blue, purple, and green.  Now we have been seeing the mascara show up in a separate display which you can see at Nouveau Cheap's site.  The mascaras are in the Mega Plush formula, which I find to be a little wet but work in a pinch if you put some effort in to it.  I did purchase this mascara in the purple from the other display.

From this display, I did buy the purple Eyestudio quad in Plum Passion because ... well ... purple.  I have to say that I really like it though.  The eyeshadows are very smooth and buttery.  For glittery eyeshadows they are not rough at all.  I have not worn them on the eye yet, but I believe they will be the same quality we have come to expect from the Maybelline Eyestudio line.  Below are swatches for the new quad.

As an aside, I shared these pictures with Gianna at Nouveau Cheap so she may share them with the readers of her blog.
