PRODUCT COLLABORATION: Gabriel Cosmetics!

Greetings!

Today, I am very happy to introduce to you a wonderful makeup line! The company, Gabriel Cosmetics was kind enough to collaborate with me and allow me to review some of their products. Thank you so much to the company! The two items that I have for review are:
-Lipstick in color "Meritage" (full bodied wine) ($16.75)
-Liquid Radiance highlighter in "Liquid Gold" ($12.50)

First, let me say that both of these products are very pigmented! The above swatches are only one swipe. In addition to that, they both have a very light feel on the skin. Now, let's take a look at how they appeared when I used them in a fun makeup look:
The lipstick was phenomenal! As I have typically dry lips, the creamy texture really provided a sheen while maintaining the unique purple hue. The satin finish was beautiful and was very cohesive with my glowy look. While a lot of lipsticks I try are runny and move around a lot, this one did not. Without using a lip primer, the product managed to stay in place for the full 7-8 hours that I had worn it. Great job Gabriel Cosmetics! This is now one of my lippie staples.

The Liquid Gold highlighter was gorgeous! I was unsure of what to expect from this product because I always use a powder to highlight my face. However, I was quickly reassured of its value. The liquid consistency glided onto my skin perfectly. The metallic flecks within it reflected nicely off of the light and provided an almost iridescent aura. This product works as a wonderful highlighter and will be used in future tutorials, along with some of my everyday makeup looks!

Gabriel Cosmetics gets a 5 star rating from me! Both products are now going to be regularly used in my makeup routine. If you would like to browse their other products or purchase the afore mentioned, please visit their site link below. Thanks guys!

About Me

Hey there! Thanks for stopping by! I'm Calynn, 20x Award Winning businesswoman, media personality and former pageant queen (Miss United States Universe Tourism 2021, Miss World America Nation 2020). I started this blog when I was barely 15 years old in January 2011 as a supplement to my application to the retail business internship at the downtown Chicago Nordstrom mall! I stayed there for 3 years learning the fundamentals of everything fashion business from sales and marketing to media and modeling. This was a phenomenal foundation to my career as it gave me the rudimentary knowledge and competitive edge that I needed to be successful!  From there, I went on to college and obtained my first degree in Business and Humanities (the arts and social sciences). I wrote as a freelance journalist and editor for several large publications and hosted live cable television for two years. I walked countless red carpets being a VIP media guest at major industry events all over the country a

38 Underrepresented World Wide Talents That You Need to Know!

In a world where so many great entrepreneurs and artists can become famous at the act of one viral video online, it's easy to get lost in the misconception that with social media's "power," anybody who is talented is already known. After all, it isn't as difficult to gain exposure and "get big" as it was 20 years ago before the Internet's Massive Media takeover, right? Partially yes, however, social media also makes the market 10x as saturated as it was 20 years ago. Thus, are you really that much further ahead if all of your competition has the means to one-up you, free of cost and inconvenience, just by posting to their online accounts? It's a lot to think about. That is why we here at The Fresh Faces Project work hard to make sure that the artists and entrepreneurs and do-gooders who are underrepresented and don't get the fame and acknowledgment that their talents merit are given a platform. That platform is us. When creating thi

The Search For "Mr. Right": 2 Years On Every App Taught Me This

  Over the last 2 years, I've been conducting what some could call a "social experiment." I have been single (by choice) for the better part of the last 2.5 years and had an epiphany a little over 2 years ago to give online dating services a shot! While it hasn't been the most miraculous experience, it has certainly been a valuable one! And, I strongly recommend that anyone who is looking to settle down with a life partner, give them a try! Maybe you don't need to sign up for almost every app known to man like I have LOL, but at least try the major ones. This blog is a detailed account of my findings as a young, sweet, successful woman with online dating.  For clarity, I've added the below chart for you to understand who I am and what I have to offer versus what I am seeking. This foundational knowledge is key to comprehending the results of my "experiment." I, as a 26 year old woman who is the CEO of a successful small business ( www.caycomcreate.co
