Allure Cover Look | January 2013

I subscribed to Allure magazine recently and I am so excited to share my opinions on the topics mentioned. The point of these post will be to share my thoughts and opinions on what Allure covers for the month. 

This month features Drew Barrymore and her recently released makeup line FLOWER. I went to Wal Mart to check it out for myself. I tried a few eye and lip products.



The lip butters are wonderful! They remind me of the L'Oreal Colour Riche Balms but with more staying power. This acts as a one step lip color. There is no need for a mirror, liner or gloss. Everything you need is in this tube - I love it! 5/5!


This slip color by itself is moisturizing and floral smelling. The issue I have with it is the color doesn't glide on smoothly. It feel smooth but when you look at the pink color it leaves - it is blotchy. This is a quick fix though. Simply rub your lips together or blot the lip stick on opposed to sweeping the stick across your lips. I give this lip stick a 4/5 because the color does not stay smooth on the lips.


What an impressive product! This gloss can be wore by itself or on top of your favorite lip stick. Either way, it's beautiful! I give this gloss a 5/5. It is the most moisturizing and comfortable gloss i have come across yet. 


These were the only eye products they had on display the day Drew line was released to my local Wal Mart. Of the two I am most impressed with the mascara. It's hour glass shape fits my lashes very well. It has a gel formula that is more on the dry side. I haven't noticed any flaking either!

I give the mascara a 4/5 because I do not like the flexibility of the wand.

The liner in another story. The color fades and wipes away with time. I wouldn't recommend this product. 

I give the liner a 3/5.



Let me know what you guys think of the FLOWER line!
