The Frilly Panda

It's been a week since I posted about maybe having a giveaway and no one said anything about it. I think I will do some but I will start with something small first ans them move up to the bigger items.
I have a range of samples (packed by me), samples in baggies from the company, and full sizes of the following companies:
Lime Crime
Beauty From The Earth
Sugarpill
Mon Ennui
Geek Chic Cosmetics
Julep
Revlon
E.L.F.
I also may have time to make some small bags to put them into.

So let me know what company samples you would like to see first and I will get the rafflecopter set up to start by the end of the month.

I may or may not have a few things stashed away for a giveaway or two but I want to know if there is interest for it or not. I know I don't have a lot of readers to begin with and I have seen large blogs have giveaways and have no one enter until a day or two before the deadline because the writer has posted literally everywhere on the net reminding people to do so.
Prizes range from full size cosmetics, cosmetic samples (that I have jarred myself), cosmetic sample baggies straight from the companies, hair bows, tote bags, etc. There's lots of stuff hiding in my gift box :).

I have been slowly collecting some Revlon lip butters and Maybelline colour whispers since they were released and now that I have a decent collection I figured it was a good time to swatch them.
First of all I really like the texture and pigmentation of these lippies. They are super lightweight and feel like lip balm but have super buildable colour. Very nice for a light swipe of tint or a richer look without the weight or dryness of a lipstick.

Left to right they are Raspberry Pie, Tutti Frutti, Peach Parfait, Candy Apple, Berry Smoothie, Sweet Tart

Each swatch is swiped 3 times so you can see just how some are more pigmented than others. Another thing is some of them have a slight shimmer while others are more of a creme finish.
My personal favourite is Berry Smoothie - it is almost just a richer shimmery version of my natural lip colour so it pretty much lives in my purse. That being said, some of these I haven't even tried on my lips yet as our weather has been crap and just started getting nice. So hopefully I'll be able yo wear all the colours soon and swatch them on my lips for you all.

Next up are the Maybelline Color Whispers
Left to right they are Pin Up Peach, Coral Ambition, Who Wore It Red-er, Made It Mauve, A Plum Prospect.

And just for fun here's the Maybelline Vivid in Shocking Coral.
