Do You Dare?
It's so hard to find these limited edition collections at my local drugstore so you can imagine how excited I was to find this one! haha. I was strolling around my local Walgreens and saw the Dare To Go Nude display. At first glance I wanted everything but... I talked myself out of it and stuck to these four items. I love the idea of this collection! Normally, limited edition collections are full of bright colors that would only be wearable on a night out or special occasion. I love that this collection is made to be for everyday use! And who doesn't love a great nude? ;-)
The collection was rather big, it had a few color tattoos to choose from and a few palettes too. I stuck with the items that I knew I would get the most use out of. Here's a close up!
Maybelline EyeStudio Quad in Nude Romance- Out of all the quads I fell in love with this one! I believe this palette retailed for about $6, Walgreens was having $2 off Maybelline products (woohoo!) so I manged to get a great deal on these. All the shadows were so buttery and smooth, just great quality! They are nicely pigmented and I find that out of all the drugstore palettes I've tried these blend the best. I've used this palette almost everyday, so this is a must have in my opinion! The cream shade is great as a highlight or all over the lid. The cognac color is amazing as a crease shade. The last two colors are great to smoke out the look... such a versatile palette!
Maybelline Color Tattoo By EyeStudio in Caramel Cool- After purchasing a bunch of the ELF Smudge Pots (which are amazing btw!) I thought I was set for life on the cream shadows. But... I just couldn't leave this one at the store! Caramel Cool is a beautiful light bronze/gold shade that looks amazing as a lid color. It's such a great formula that doesn't crease when worn over a primer. This was about $4 after the $2 off. I've used this color many times already and I always get compliments. It really brings out my brown eyes! :-)
Maybelline ColorSensational Lipstick in Ravishing Rose- Maybelline lipsticks are really good! I love the vivids and buffs that were previously launched so I knew I would like this one too. Out of all the colors I chose the one that I thought was more wearable. It's a nude rosey pink shade that looks amazing on. I thought it would wash me out but it has the right amount of pink in it to makes it perfect for everyday. This lipstick was about $5 after the discount. Its creamy and hydrating... great combo!
Maybelline Color Show Nail Polish in Lust For Buff- This nail polish quickly made it to my top favorites of all times! It was about $2 after the discount and very well worth it. It's the perfect color nude color for the nails, kinda makes your nails look longer! My only complaint is the formula, its a bit tedious. It chips within 2-3 days and chips all in one piece. Ive tried different top coats but the formula just isn't long lasting. But... I wouldn't mind reapplying this color because its that pretty! ;-)
So these were my picks from the Dare To Go Nude collection! I read/heard that there's a new neons collection that's perfect for summer so I'm hoping to come across it really soon. Maybelline hit a home run with this, I'm more than pleased with all of my purchases. :-)
