Review! Too Faced Melted Lipsticks (Melted Marshmallow & Peony) + Swatches!

Hello beautifuls! I have a small review for you all! These products were in my small beauty haul (blog post and video), current favorites blog post, on a few MOTD postings and currently in my "on-the-go" makeup bag that holds lip and eye products for wherever I'm going for touch ups! Can you say obsessed? I can't get enough of these two products for some reason. 

I received Melted Peony as a deluxe mini sample from Ulta when I purchased the Too Faced Chocolate Solei Bronzer and I absolutely fell in love with it. The texture, the pigmentation, the quality, and that they smell delicious! I went out and bought Marshmallow. 


Packaging is very feminine with a gold colored tube cap and gold lettering and accents.


The full size product is 0.40 fl. oz. (12ml) where as the deluxe mini sample I received is 0.16 fl. oz. (5ml). The back of the packaging has a "melted heart", products name/color, expiration date, and general information.

These lip products are so pigmented, you only need a little bit on the center of your bottom lip and then smooth and blend it out to the rest of your lips. When I was wearing them I did notice they left my lips a bit dry so you definitely need to apply a lip balm before applying the product. They also leave a stain effect on your lips when the initial "glossy" look wears off.

Pros:
Long lasting
High pigmentation
Good smell
Long lasting
Give off somewhat of a stain 

Cons:
Pricey
Tend to leave lips dry after wearing them (use lip balm before applying)
Messy if too much product is applied

Final Thoughts:
I definitely have to say these are a must have in your lip product stash! They're like a lip gloss, lip stick and balm stain all in one! Only trouble is, you have to moisturize your lips before applying them or your lips will feel a little on the dry side. They come in a decent size range of colors through Ulta and Sephora from a nude to a dark berry color.

Current Favorites!

So lately I've been obsessing over a few products so I decided to share with you all my current favorites at the moment. I seem to be grabbing for these everyday!


Urban Decay Vice 3 Palette:
I've really been enjoying the use of this palette, especially the mauve and purple tones. Such great pigmentation! Something about this palette makes me happy every time I use it lately!

Too Faced Melted Lipstick (Melted Pheony): 
This is a sample size I received along with the purchase I made of my Too Faced Candlelight Glow Duo and I love this shade! It's perfect for a simple eye look when you want the slightest pop of nude pink! Last long too!

Too Faced Melted Lipstick (Melted Marshmallow):
Oh my goodness! After swatching and wearing Melted Pheony (and falling in love with that shade) I ended up going out and buying the new shade up and I'm so glad. Perfect barbie pink!

NYX Lip Liner (Natural & Nude Pink)
I've been pairing these two shades (not together at once, but on different lip looks) with my medium shade nude lipsticks and it really gives them a beautiful finish! It makes the color look more of a natural nude on my skintone.

NYX Black Label Lipstick (Heiress)
Another great nude pink to wear when I have bold eye looks or a softer look that I want to pair with pink toned nude

ELF Jumbo Eyeshadow Stick (Turkish Coffee)
I was using this as a color base when I used my Urban Decay Vice 3 Palette to tone down "Sonic" on my lid and it turns "Sonic" into a shimmery taupe, mauve jewel tone color!

Maybelline Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner (Black Black)
I recently went back to this lately since I have a feeling I may have a slight irritation or allergy of some kind to liquid liners. I'm totally glad I gave it another chance with a different application! This stays all day like my Kat Von D Liquid Liner. I've been applying it with one of my very thin small angled eyeliner brushes from Sonia Kashuk and it applies perfectly!
