TFT: Favorite Lip Sticks
Hey Guys! Welcome to another T5T! This week I wanted to tell you about my favorite lipsticks!
The first favorite has to be my all time favorite and it is the Maybelline Color Whisper. I love the formula of these. They go on so smooth and are such a comfortable lip color to wear. I prefer these over the Revlon Lip Butters any day. They are bright but not too over the top. I have this in two colors and I love them both. I have Cherry on Top (my absolute favorite) which is a bright fuschia pink and Faint for Fuschia which is a paler bright pink.
Next is the Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick. These glide on so easy and are so pigmented. I love how moisturizing these are. I have the color Violet Pop and I love the bright fuschia purple color. I thought I had more than one of these, but I can't seem to find the other one.
Another one that I love is the NYC Applelicious Glossy Lip Balm. First let me just say how cute these are because they all have an apple shape in the middle of them. And to top it off, they have the greatest scent! They smell so fruity. I have two of these in the colors Big Apple Red which is a really light easy to wear red and Apple Plum Pie which is a deep mauvy purple color. These are so comfortable to wear and really easy to apply. They aren't super bright so I feel like they are ones you could throw on without a mirror and not have to worry too much about them.
My fourth favorite is from Wet N Wild. It is the Megalast Lip Color. I have these in the shades 904B Rose Bud and 907C Mauve Outta Here. These colors are pretty similar. They are both mauve shades but 904B is just slightly pinker (I actually have two tubes of 904B for some reason?!?) and 907C seems more purple. These are really long lasting lip sticks, though they can be just slightly drying so I do suggest wearing a gloss or balm with them. I am really wanting to get several more colors of this lip stick.
And last is another one from Maybelline. It is the Maybelline Vivids. These are so amazing! They are extremely pigmented! If you like bright lip colors, go with these. I have the color Fuschia Flash and it is the most amazing bright pink color. I also have Vivid Rose and Shocking Coral. I really like how easily these go on. And they have the perfect amount of shine without being too much.
So what do you think? Have you ever tried any of these lipsticks? What are your favorite lipsticks?

FIF: Maybelline Baby Lips Dr. Rescue
Hey Guys! For today's First Impression Friday, I wanted to do a review on the Maybelline Baby Lips Dr. Rescue. Let's go ahead and jump in!
I bought this product because I needed to spend just a couple of dollars to get reward bucks at CVS. This is one of the cheapest items in the Maybelline line. I also really love all of the Baby Lips that I own (I am thinking about doing a Baby Lips collection video!) so I thought I would give the Dr. Rescue a try.
Now, I have heard some people say that they didn't like these, but I also heard a lot of people didn't like the original Baby Lips either and I love them. I am also a big fan of mentholated chapsticks and balms so I was really excited about these. When I first opened it, I was really excited about the scent. It reminded me kind of Vicks Vapor Rub, which is a smell I remember a lot from my childhood. I really enjoyed it. When I applied it, I can definitely still smell it, but the smell doesn't last a super long time. As far as the feeling on my lips, it goes on smooth and feels moisturizing just like the original Baby Lips. You also definitely get that tingly feeling that you would expect from a mentholated lip balm. Again, that was something that I was expecting and looking for, but if it that isn't something you like, then I would definitely stay clear of these.
For the color, I went with one of the darker shades. I picked Berry Soft. I am pretty sure there is only one that is darker or similar in color. I really liked this color because I figured it would be a good easy to wear color, so this would be nice to just throw in my bag and apply without a mirror or too much effort. I was completely right on the color. It went on deep enough to add a little more color to my lips, without being too overpowering. It was absolutely the perfect color and exactly what I was looking for.
These aren't super long lasting, but none of the Baby Lips are. I do love everything about it though. It is perfect for a light or no makeup day. I really want to get some of the other colors. So, overall, I was really impressed with these. They were exactly what I was expecting, but if you aren't a fan of the mentholated balms, I definitely would not recommend these for you. If you like those kinds of balms and you are looking for one like that with a bit of color, these are perfect.
