MAC Lady Gaga Viva Glam VS High Voltage Cosmetics Gagalicious

I just got my MAC Viva Glam Gaga lipstick today, so excited!
 Beautiful, right? :)










Right when I got it, I swatched it next to my High Voltage Cosmetics Gagalicious Lip Candy!

Practically identical, yes?!
















MAC Viva Glam Gaga VS HVC Gagalicious

















Gagalicious has an ever so slightly violet tone in it and more glossy (obviously -_-)
MAC Viva Glam Gaga:
-$14.00USD
-Limited Edition
-Pale Pink w/blue undertones
-Creamy

High Voltage Gagalicious:
-$6.00USD
-Limited Edition (under the name of Gagalicious. It WILL be a permanent product, just under a different name)
-Pale Pink w/ slight lavender undertone
-Glossy
-Kind of a pain to get out of the tube but for me, that's not a big deal.

All and all, they're pretty identical. I love them both the same. I only bought one of the lipsticks since I know once I do run out, I'm just going with High Voltage Cosmetics. I do enjoy wearing them together (I am right now :D) Love the colors. I can't really say how long lasting the Viva Glam one is since I just got it but I know Gagalicious has pretty good staying power.

I hope this was helpful for you interested in either product!!

(I'm dumb, I didn't use the lipstick on it's own, I have Rimmel London Camo lip liner on as well)

High Voltage Valentines Tutorial



So, my camera likes to be difficult for me hense a lot of fuzzyness and also not really showing the amazing pigmentation of these colors. It's a shame, it really is!!! I'm hoping I can get a better one soon, this one is just ridiculous. (If you're wondering, it's a Sony Webbie HD, it's good for the price I guess *$100ish*)

As for High Voltage cosmetics, Jasmine has made some sincerely incredible eye shadows! They last all day, very pigmented, a lot of variety, and they all have such cute names!!! The shipping was amazingly fast, I've had no problem with her what so ever and I plan to continue to do business with her!

Eyes:

Too Faced Shadow Insurance
High Voltage Sour Girl (I'm not seeing it on the website anymore!! It's a light shimmery lavander color)
High Voltage Cupid's Arrow
High Voltage Cloud 9
High Voltage I'm With The Band (again, not on the site :(!! It's a bright pink)
Coastal Scents 28 Neutral Palette
Rimmel Glistening Eye Crayon- 100 Girls Only
Maybelline Stiletto Voluptuous Waterproof Mascara
True Black Gel Liner

PICTURES!
This picture was taken with my Canon Rebel XSi...
Soo how bright and vibrant those colors are!?














This is with my crappy Sony Webbie HD... A SHAME!!!

What I'm Loving!!! January 2010

So since I recently bleached and dyed my hair, I was very worried about my hair getting fried :(

But luckily, I found some products that didn't kill my hair so I love them. Also got some new makeup and whatnot so I'm loving those too!

This is what I used to bleach my hair. I used a 20 Volume instead of 30 because I was scared of killing my hair (like I already said... It's something I worry about alot :X) It worked fine! Missed a couple spots and have to rebleach 3 days later and my hair was still silky after my shower (I used ANOTHER product to help with that too which I'll mention in a second)
Salon Care Prism Lites smells AMAZING! It doesn't have that horrible strong bleach smell! It's kind of like... Blueberrys? It's just nice to not have to deal with a stinky head! I got bother of these from Sally's Beauty Supply!



Nexxus Humectress is a life saver!!! Every time I use this, my hair feels AMAZINGLY silky and is so nice and shiney which is saying something since my hair should be making a haystack look soft by now. This bottle is HUGE too, it was $30 at Rite Aid BUT they also have a smaller bottle for cheaper...Not sure how much cheaper.... But cheaper none the less! I honestly know I'll never use another conditioner (unless a much better one comes out that is ;) )





High Voltage Cosmetics... Ahhh!!! These colors are soooooo fricken pretty. There are SO MANY different colors, very pigmented, LONG LASTING! I love these so very much, and Jasmine is so nice and easy to talk to. Shipping is quick and reliable! I love this company! End of story.





These are my 3 favorite shadows from High Voltage Cosmetics, "I'm With The Band" just blew me away. It is such a great bright pink!  The picture does it no justice but it was the best I could do.








I love these, you can't tell in the picture but they're blond/light brown! I don't have any other lashes like these so they're very fun to play with. Sadly, MAC discontinued them :(

And lastly, Girlish Romp by MAC which they also discontinued :( MAC, stop doing that! I didn't even buy a backup so now I'm hesitant to even play around with it. Boo! They're such great colors, so pretty and... well.. Girly! I hope to make a tutorial with it very soon!
















And that's it! I know it's not much, sorry about that. BUT... This Saturday (Feb.6th) I'll have a new tutorial up using High Voltage Cosmetics so yeah! Be prepared for awesome ;)

Have a great week everyone!
I leave you with a random photo!
