Mini Lipstick Haul & Demo!

Don't get me wrong, I love reading beauty blogs and watching "gurus" on YouTube. However, sometimes this hobby isn't so nice to my wallet. Sometimes they talk about or use a product and I just go "I WANT THAT". And then I buy it. This was one of those times.

 

Here is my mini Covergirl lipstick haul from Target. I bought Euphoria and Hot Passion. (Somehow the lipsticks switched places during their photo shoot! In the second picture, Hot Passion is on the left and Euphoria is on the right.)

Once I saw itsbl0ndie on YouTube use this lipstick in this tutorial, I knew I had to have it. Plus I really wanted to try a deep berry color so this was my excuse to finally go buy one.  I'm not the biggest fan of how this one looks on me, but I plan to try it out again before passing it on to someone else (maybe it looks better on blondes?)

The reason for the purchase of Hot Passion is the result of me reading FleurDeForce's interview with Taylor Swift, which you can read here. Taylor Swift said in the interview that her famous red lip is Covergirl's "Hot Passion" lipstick. Now, I'm not entirely sure if this is true, because Taylor is a Covergirl, and also mentioned two other Covergirl products in her interview, so I kind of feel like she had to shamelessly promote Covergirl. Regardless of this being true or not, I really do like this color!

Overall these lipsticks are great! Very bold colors and very pigmented. I'm thinking of wearing the red to my Christmas party this Saturday. Yay? Nay?
