Do you want makeup that looks good and is GOOD for your skin too?

Well...DuWop cosmetics was made with you in mind! I know that us gals have our own makeup dilemmas but mine is...RED LIPSTICK. I love red lipstick but I'm absolutely terrified of how it'll look on me. As a woman of color,I'm very concerned about drawing negative attention to my lips. Such effect will be called:CLOWN MOUTH,just tragic.

But DuWop is here to the rescue with their revolutionary lipstick "Private Red"!

Private Red is different from other lipsticks because it has "mood lipstick technology".Which always it to change color and complement YOUR skin tone.Thanks for solving my 3 year dilemma,DuWop:-) Not only that but Private Red contains nourishing ingredients like Vitamin E for conditioning and Henna for a non-fading pigment.It not only protects&conditions,smooth-ens but never fades! This isn't your mother's lipstick!

This is the lipstick of the new generation. It's a great buy that every trendsetter needs in her makeup bag. No more dry lips! No more weird smells! No more fading color! I'm a huge fan! I do not advocate anything I don't believe in so don't waste another dime on products that don't work.

XOXO

Rodarte for Target

I know I'm late. Silencio.
This collection was a disappointment.There's nothing special in this collection.It's either a travesty or boring. There were a few things I liked,smh.There's nothing like the real thing... Check out the collection:

I like the leopard print dress. You know how I feel about lace tights and mixed prints. Nuff said.

The Gothic version of the Like a Virgin ensemble? Or a failed Blair Waldorf-Jenny Humphrey contraption? Either way,I don't like it.The belt and gloves are fab though.

...This shade of yellow is blinding and hideous.

Can't be shy in this. Sequin & Leopard print= alot of stares. Their bow belts are so cute.

Hot Mess. She looks like a rebellious bridesmaid.

I would dig it if it wasn't for the random and unnecessary wrist&neck brows.

Hmm

The cardigan and dress compliment each other nicely:)

Drab

As a brand that's know for the edgy,daring and chic looks...I was disappointed. Oh well!It's an afforadble collection of course. It ranges from $ 12- $50.
