Hi girls, today I’m reviewing the Mally Beauty Cancellation Concealer System. This kit contains a cream concealer in a pot, a setting powder in a pot, and a double ended brush; one side for concealing and one fluffy side for setting the concealer with the pressed powder. It retails for $35 from mallybeauty.com, QVC, boutiques, and QVC.com. It’s actually one of their best sellers and keep reading to see why.
Pros:
-It moisturizes my under eye area.
-It stays on for the whole day without fading.
-It concealed very well without caking.
-It provided maximum coverage and hides all those imperfections you probably have.
-It doesn’t smell bad; it’s a lot like a perfumed kind of smell.
-They come in refills.
-The setting powder is a good addition to the kit.
Con(s):
-No cons!
Overall review: I really like the consistency of the concealer. It’s not drying whatsoever unlike the other high end brand concealer out there. It’s a must have for anyone who need maximum coverage, I actually use this stuff under my eyes and it covers pretty well and stays on for the entire day without fading. It covers blemishes seamlessly and doesn’t cake. I would say that this is the first concealer I have come across that actually covers up my dark under eye circles. Well, I hope you enjoy this review!
Would I purchase it again? : Yes, if I ever finish this one.
Rating: 10/10
Packaging: 10/10 it comes in a nice little kit!
Is it VICKY approved? : Yes; it’s best for maximum coverage.

Review: Mally Beauty Cancellation Concealer System
Review: Mally Beauty Eye Primer
Hey girls! Today I blog again about an eye primer. Now, you would think “Oh this is something like Urban Decay Eye shadow Primer Potion”, well think again ladies. I’m reviewing the Mally Beauty Eye Primer. This isn’t your ordinary primer, but it works a lot like an eye cream. It’s a type of primer with silicone in it and it fills in the fine lines and wrinkles around your eyes. It can be purchased from many retailers and it retails for $54, but the QVC price is $35. Keep reading for more information!
Pros:
-It fills in fine lines and wrinkle around the eye area.
-It moisturizes the eye area without a greasy feel.
-It makes my concealer go on more smoothly.
-There isn’t any particular smell to this.
-It comes with a brush to apply the primer with.
-A little bit goes a long way.
-It helps my concealer last longer than usual.
Con(s):
-It might not fill in heavy lines and deep wrinkles.
Overall review: I really like this primer. I’ve never seen anything especially made for your under eye area with silicone. I would really buy this again because it really does a nice job. This helps in making my concealer stay on longer because normally my concealer starts fading in 4 hours, but this keeps it on for a full on 8 hours. It didn’t help my clients’ deep set wrinkles. I hope you enjoy this review!

Review: Mally Beauty High Shine Liquid Lipstick Pen
Hi ladies. Today, I’ll be reviewing the Mally Beauty High Shine Liquid Lipstick Pen. This comes in a twist up tube like Stila’s lip glazes and retail for $20 from mallybeauty.com and other boutiques as well as QVC and QVC.com. These are super pigmented, shiny lip glosses and are named lipsticks because of the amount of pigments put into it. The one I’m reviewing is called Perfect Pink. Keep reading for more info.
Pros:
-Very shiny and glossy.
-Very pigmented, much like a lipstick.
-Smells great like candy.
-Nice smooth application with brush tip.
-Not sticky; more like the consistency of a lipstick.
Con(s):
-Doesn’t’ stay on very long; about an hour or two at the most.
Overall review: I would definitely recommend these for anyone because they include the shine of a lip gloss mixed in with the pigmentation of a lipstick. It would be best for anyone because all the colors are universal. I used this on my cousin whose skin tone is like 7 shades darker than mine and it still looks very nice on her. I would describe this color as mauve pink and a lot like MAC’s Bare Slim shine put into a liquid form. I think it has plumper’s in to because I used it on a client and her lips definitely looked bigger. I hope you guys enjoyed this review!
Would I purchase it again? : Of course; best lipstick ever!
