Candy Doll Lipstick in Poodle Pink

I originally bought this because it was limited edition (i'm a sucker for limited edition things) and by the time I wanted it all of them were sold out everywhere. Even ebay. But I managed to find it at thedollyeye.com (still should be instock). Sure, I wasn't really thrilled about the shipping time, but hey, its still in stock and it was free shipping. It took around a month because they first ordered it from Japan and then when they got it they shipped it to me.
On your lips it looks the same as it shows on the stick. Its very pigmented. But like the rest of the Candy Doll lipsticks it drying and I often have to put a layer of lip balm on, and it can make the lipstick application a little uneven. Probably depending on what lip balm you use (I use the Candy Doll Lip Treatment). Overall its is a very good product, but I probably wouldn't buy it again. I'm not a big fan of the color because to me bright light pink lips are kind of hard to wear.

Candy Doll Lipstick in Pink Grapefruit

Overall I prefer to use this lipstick over Candy Doll's Poodle Pink one. This lipstick has more of a red undertone. Its still harder for me to wear but its better. It has the same consistency and quality's of Poodle Pink. I normally use each lipstick to create a gradient effect on my lips. I first put on Poodle Pink on the middle of my lips then blend. Then I put on Pink Grapefruit. Its a pretty stupid idea to use both because when you layer them on top of each other they pretty much look the same. But if you layer them enough you get a lighter to darker gradient.

Candy Doll Lip Treatment

At first I hated this product. I was using the Maybelline Baby Lips and they worked fabulously. But when I used this product it made my lips chapped and it didn't stay on that well. But when my lips got used to the Baby Lips I started using this because this was the only thing I had. After I started regularly using this my lips felt the same way as they did when I was using the Baby Lips. It still doesn't stay on that long, but I do feel the moisturizing aspect to it now.

Etude House Shini Star Lip Balm (Onew, Key, & Minho)

I don't even know what these are. They are like a lip gloss in a lip balm container. They are super glossy when on, but not that sticky. They don't have much of a color change. I think Key's makes most of the difference. My favorite is Onew's. You can see the bottom. I had to stop myself from using it. My least favorite is Key's. IT DOESN'T SMELL LIKE PASSION FRUIT OR FASHION FRUIT OR WHATEVER. It smells like soap. I use this one the most when I do use them because I want to get rid of it faster.
They also don't really moisturize they sorta make my lips chapped. I also have to use a brush to apply this. And then can on them (not Onew's) are really hard to get off.

Dolly Wink Cream Eyeshadow

I used to use this a lot when I didn't have my Urban Decay Primer. I thought this would be a good substitute. Its really not. Without a primer (for me) this often creases, but with a primer it is totally fine. It also doesn't make my eyeshadow as vibrant. Most of the time when I wear this its normally alone. And by alone I mean Primer > Cream Eyeshadow > Eyeliner. Its veryyyyy sparkly but its not like you can feel the pieces of glitter. Overall I really like this product and I want to buy it in the silver color as well.

Dolly Wink Eyeshadow

I honestly only own eyeshadow from Dolly Wink. They are my go to for eye products. (Though I kinda want the Urban Decay Naked Palette). My first every eyeshadow was the Grey/Pink one. Then Blue/Orange. Then Brown. I really want the Pink one but its like $50 everywhere ;~;. Overall these are all super quality eyeshadows and I normally use the Brown one on a regular basis. I do not use the Blue/Orange one a lot because it kinda washes me out. I will always buy Dolly Wink eyeshadow. Foreverrrr

I also have Dolly Wink Mascara (Long and Volume), Dior Nude Compact, Shini Star Clear BB Lotion, Skin79 Super+ Perfection BB Cream, Candy Doll Lip Gloss (Passion Pink, Strawberry Pink & Cotton Candy), Tony Moly Tony Tint, and Canmake Candy Wrap Lip (Lady Strawberry). If you want me to review any of them just ask. Though I may or may not be doing some anyways.
