Y'all, we it to Friday. We're so close to the weekend--I can almost see it, or maybe around 7 tonight when I'm off work. And to celebrate, we need to visit
Sephora for some new makeup. Shopping cures all, I'm telling ya. Seriously though,
Buxom has some new products, and I was able to try them out. And I am in love--I've shared lots of
Buxom makeup here over the years, so I wasn't surprised that I'd love these. Look at these goodies!
First up, we have
Buxom Full-On Lip Polish in Dani, Leslie, and Clair. Sparkly Clair is my fave. The glosses are the first items I can remember purchasing from them and their best sellers, $19. They are lightly pigmented, not too sticky, and are tingly. They have over 100 shades, with Dolly being the most-popular one. Also pictured are
Buxom True Nude Lip Foundation, creamy long-lasting color that matches your lip tone and hides minor imperfections. You can wear them alone or with gloss. They come in 7 colors, $19.

And now for the new stuff! I am a palette junkie, but usually end up not using all of the shades. Not anymore!
Buxom has a new
Eyeshadow Bar. There are over 40 primer-infused, buttery-soft, amazingly pigmented shadows to choose from--think matte, metallic, duo-chrome, and more. Pick 6 to create a custom palette--just slip in and push it closed, as pictured. $14 each.
Not into choosing shadows? No worries--
Buxom has pre-built palettes for you, like
May Contain Nudity,
Dolly's Wild Side, and
Pastel Persuasion. $40

All of the products have earned my seal of approval--you can't go wrong with any of these!
Have you tried Buxom before?
Extra Elle:
- I have these supposed "unbreakable" headphones that I somehow broke. Any suggestions for new ones that aren't ear buds?
- I have a rule that I can't buy candles unless they're on sale and I have to use up 2-3 before buying 1. I had a bunch that were almost empty, so my house has been smelling like a tropical land. I reuse the containers--they hold my makeup brushes!
- To thank you for spending a bit of your day with me, I've got a few giveaways for you:
I am a huge Buxom fan and I have never heard of the lip foundation or the eyeshadow bar!! Is this on line or just in stores? I am taking my daughter to Bare Escentuals this weekend for some makeup tutorials so I will be checking this out!! Thanks Elle! Jennie and I have a new link up called Charming Friday. We would feel honored if you would link up with us(: Susan
ReplyDeleteI've never used Buxom products before. I love the idea of creating your own eye-shadow palette! The colors are so rich!

I have never tried Buxom products. I will definitely be on a lookout now. I would love to know your candle favorites. I am such a candle snob, and I just can't seem to find one I love. Have a great weekend Elle!

I have always heard good things about Buxom lip gloss but am yet to try it myself. Love the colors you showed! Very natural and pretty, which is right up my alley when it comes to makeup!

I have never tried Buxom but need to now! You eyes look amazing with these eyeshadows!

I have never used their products but I am totally going to check them out next time I am at Sephora.
ReplyDeleteThose build-your-own Buxom palettes look so nice! I meant to check them out when I was at Ulta yesterday but I COMPLETELY forgot! Maybe for the better...I've already spent enough money on makeup and skincare since I've been home. Have you tried the new Love Flush blushes from Too Faced? I am in love!
ReplyDeleteI am also a candle junkie! I usually buy them on sale on Yankee Candle and go crazy. I've put myself on a "no candle buy" for a while now because I have so many I have to use first! I also reuse my candle jars, some at drinking glasses (if the shape is right) and some I fill up with homemade body scrubs.
Hope you have a great weekend, Elle! xx
The Lip Polish in Leslie is everything - love it! Also digging the names of the palettes - so cheeky!

ReplyDeleteI love Buxom products. Ipsy actually had the eyeshadow to make you own buxom palette last month in there points. They sold out fast too.

Wow, I'm loving the lipglosses, so gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteGreat review! I wish I was more adventurous when it came to eye shadow. What's a good pallet to start with if I don't want to invest too much but want to play a little and ease into the idea of shadow?
ReplyDeleteI'm usually the same with palettes, I feel it's such a waste, but now that I have the Naked 3 I have been able to use all shades. Glad you found a palette you like! Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteI love that you can pick which colors you want in the palette - I can't remember the last time I got just one eye shadow and not a palette - I love having all the options right there at once.
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love Buxom products! If you open up the makeup bag in my purse there's easily 3 or 4 Buxom lip plumpers or polishes because they're just absolute perfection. Let me know how the headphone struggle goes, I hate the new earbuds that came with iPhones 5s and older, they really hurt my ears and need to be replaced ASAP. Happy Friday!!

I have yet to try Buxom but wow, those eyeshadow palettes look really good! Love the eye makeup, Elle. The gold looks so good on you!

Ooo I love gold lids! My college colors and black and gold so I always have gold lids on game day. This is a really pretty one.
ReplyDeleteI've never tried Buxom products before, but I love the idea of creating a custom eye shadow palette. I've done that with Mary Kay shadows. Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteThese new releases from Buxom are really pretty. I'm the same way with candles and reusing the containers is the way to go :)

I hate earbuds. I use a terrific pair of headphones which were designed in the 70's and are still popular 'cause they work so well Koss PortaPro; available on Amazon, about $35.
ReplyDeleteI thought the one lip polish looked really orange but it looks great on you - more of a natural color. Cant ever trust what they look like in tubes!
ReplyDeleteWow, I never heard of Buxom, but I am hooked from now on! I loved the long-lasting colors for the lips, and much more the eyeshadows, I have to confess, so many, so beautiful! And the best, the fact that they are primer-infused? Never head of it, but since now, I want them!

The lip foundations interest me and I like that you can create custom palettes with those shadows!
ReplyDeleteI have never tried it (or heard of it)! Thanks for sharing!!!! Pretty colors!
ReplyDeleteI like the look of Dani. I don't buy nearly as much makeup as other bloggers, but I always love seeing the products. Packaging has gotten so darn cute!
ReplyDeleteI have two glosses from Buxom that I love can't remember the colors though. Worth it.
ReplyDeleteHow cool that you can pick EXACTLY the colors you want. I know other brands offer this, so I'm excited to see more of them adopt this.
ReplyDeleteI love Buxom lip glosses and Clair is one of my favs too! Those gold sparkly lids are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty colors!! I am the same way about candles and the containers usually are great for makeup brushes!!! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm loving that gold eye shadow so much!

I've never tried any Buxom products but I think I need too! I've been hearing great things about the new palettes and I love that you can pick your own shades. Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteBuxom does make fabulous make up.. I loved the eyeshadows a lot !! Happy Weekend
ReplyDeleteLove, love that palette! Those hues are my go-to for sure. Happy weekend, lady!
ReplyDeleteI have not bought a lot of Buxom products, but I love how the Dani colour looks. Great vibrant palettes as well. I always reuse cleaned candle holders for makeup brushes and even little paint brushes in the studio. <3
ReplyDeleteNautical Embellishments
I love the Buxom lip stuff but haven't tried anything else from them. I have a candle that is almost gone that I want to reuse the container for because it has a sparkly lid!!! Hope you have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely adore the shapes of the lip polishes! All of them. :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't worn Buxom gloss in so long but I remember loving them. Your shadow job looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteThe eyeshadow bar sounds so cool!
ReplyDeleteBreakfast at Gracey's
i love buxom lip glosses! all those colours look fabulous on you, and that shadow job - gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteYour eye makeup looks so pretty! I love the idea of an eye shadow bar so you can build your own palette. I have some of the Buxom lip gloss, but I've never tried anything else. (Aren't the by BareMinerals? I'm a BareMinerals junkie, so I think that's how I ended up with the gloss.)
ReplyDeleteOOOh your eyes look so pretty Elle! I am definitely thinking of building my own custom palette. They have some really unique shades.
ReplyDeleteI didn't even realize they created eye shadows but I love that you can customize your own palette! And it looks like the perfect size too! Love the eye look you created!
ReplyDeleteThose Buxom lip products look so amazing! I love that first shade that you watched. It's so beautifully natural.

What a great idea about reusing candles for makeup holders! That's an awesome rule, I truly could go overboard on candle buying.
ReplyDeleteThe Buxom products look awesome! The shades are so flattering and you do a great job of displaying everything. Love this, lady!
Beautiful eyeshadows! Love the colors you used on your eyes :)
ReplyDeleteOooo I love that palette with the gold and red tones! I love the burnt orangey red color! I also won't buy candles unless they are on sale. I try to go once a season and get a few new scents but by that time most of mine are almost gone!
ReplyDeleteI love these colors!
ReplyDeleteMelanie @ meandmr.com
I haven't tried Buxom yet. I have been liking the looks of the shadows though. Loving those lip swatches!
ReplyDeleteI am so in the need for some new shadows - and never heard of Buxom! Thanks for the find :)

I really love the look of those palletes. Also try Bose headphones I heard they're good!
ReplyDeleteI've used a couple of Buxom products, but it has been a while. I definitely need to go to Sephora and take a look at what they have.
ReplyDeleteLoving the colors. Too bad I don't branch out on other colors other then neutral.

So happy with my custom Buxom palette! :-)
