Glitter Eyeshadow that's Clean!

 It's been a year since GXVE Beauty by Gwen Stefani came out, and since I became an Ambassador for the brand.  I am continually impressed by the products that they create, how they are clean, vegan, cruelty-free, and long lasting, bold and beautiful.  

As for the original launch, the brand came out with lipsticks which are very pretty, in both matte and shiny.  The matte ones "Original Me," include Original Recipe (red), Tragic Me (pink), 80's Me (purple) and Old School Me (berry).  The shiny ones "Anaheim Shine" include Original Recipe, Rosewood St (berry), Loara (orange red), Stomp Box (pink/mauve) and Screen My Phone Calls (lighter pink).

For the face, All Time Prime is your go-to face primer oil.  It can be used on hair too, and it is amazing.  

Double Dippin' is a great lip balm and lip color remover combination.  It can be used alone or as a lip color remover for the long wear colors.

Some of the newer products include new shades of the 24 hour gel eyeliner, Line It Up (the only clean one that can make that claim), there's a green, violet, dark blue, grey, bronze, brown and black with sparkles in addition to the already awesome black Spiderwebs and Bathwater cobalt sparkly blue.

 Recent shade extensions of the liquid, long-lasting lipstick "I'm Still Here" in nude tone shades are some of my favorite things.  Cowgirl (my favorite), Flannel, Tomboy and Camo, are pinky nudes, Space Buns is an orange red, Fishnets is a berry red, Tartan is a deep wine, Original Recipe is a true red.  

Xtra Sauce is a liquid vinyl super long wear lipstick currently only in a red (original recipe) color, which is amazing for performing for many hours.  It's kiss proof, drink proof and perfect all day and night.

Can't Stop Staring is the new clean mascara and it's my favorite mascara of all time.  It lengthens and looks as pretty as falsies without the hassle.  The brush is awesome too because you can get the little hairs that are easy to miss with most brushes.

The lip glosses (Bubble Pop Electric) are a huge hit and people love them.  They come in various shades of pink and a couple darker shades.  Sweet Tooth is a nude, Dolled Up and Candy are pink, Electric Pansy is darker pink and All My Love is a warm berry.

New eyeshadow "paints" just came out, which are liquid mousse to creme eyeshadows in sparkly and matte colors ("Paint it Up"), "Eye See in Sparkle," a truly clean loose powder glitter eyeshadow in 3 colors (gold, rose gold and silver), which are gorgeous and perfect for bellydancers.  Two are currently featured in discounted 4 product sets which are on sale for $50 through the end of April.

The sets are really an amazing deal, they all come with a makeup bag and through 4/30 you also get a free shiny lipstick, Loara (free with a $35 purchase).   The four sets to choose from include: A Pop of Red which has Anaheim Line (lip liner) in Scarlet Red, Original Me in Original Recipe lipstick (matte), Eye See in Color eyeshadow quad in Rich Girl, and Line It Up (eyeliner) Spiderwebs

A Pop of Pink includes Original Me in 80's Me (matte) lipstick, Candy (Bubble Pop Electric lipgloss), Line It Up Spiderwebs and Eye See in Color eyeshadow Quad in Just a Girl.

A Natural Touch set includes Eye See in Sparkle (glitter eyeshadow) Glimmer, Anaheim Line in Harbor Blvd (lip liner), I'm Still Here in Camp and Line it Up in Spiderwebs.

Lastly, the A Touch of Shimmer set includes Eye See in Sparkle in shade Twinkle, Eye See in Color eyeshadow quad in Simple Kind of Life (matte neutrals), Anaheim Shine in Stomp Box (shiny lipstick), and Pout To Get Real in shade Do Whatever (over lining lip liner).

All of this makeup is exceptional.  I wear it all every day, but also for performances.
