Last month really sucked in my opinion this month was definitely better. I may not cancel my subscription now.
Lipstick in Lydia

Full Size Cost: $12
Sample Size: 3.5 g

This month we got another one of the lipsticks this time in the shade Lydia. Which is a very interesting lilac shade. I like the uniqueness. They have really nice lipstick formulas they are moisturizing and opaque and not sticky but they are not particularly long wearing. Swatched below.
Eye Dust in Wasabe
Full Size: 1.5 g
Full Size Cost: $7
Sample Size: 1.5 g
Value: $7
This eye dust is a pretty shimmery green very mermaid vibe both in the eye dust and the lipstick though I do not know that I would wear them together. They do make very nice loose pigments I just am not into loose pigments so they don’t get a lot of use but I still enjoy having them in my collection.
Full Size: 2 g
Full Size Cost: $8
Sample Size: 2 g
Value: $8
This eye primer is weird. it is super oily and it changed the color of the eye dust when used underneath. You will see that in the swatches below. I just don’t know how I feel about this primer the oily texture never felt like it set to me and it is just weird.
Full Size: 1.5 g

We got a taste of one of Medusa’s newest products their liquid lipsticks. Liquid lipsticks are my favorite I love a lip product that can stay on through life. This is not the color I would have chose But I will see if I can make it work. I have not tried this yet but on my arm swatch it took almost 3 days of scrubbing to get it off so I have high hopes of this being super long lasting.
Here are the swatches the lipstick, the eye dust with out the primer, the eye dust with the primer, the lip paint. As you can see the primer really changes the way the eye dust looks. With out the primer Wasabe is a bright opaque green with subtle shimmer. With the primer Wasabe is much more shimmery but a light green almost sea foam green tone. I like it better with out the primer. I do not want a primer changing my eye shadow color that much for a regular look.
Total Value: $39
So we have a higher value this month and a total of 4 products this time around. I like that they gave out a new product. They now have pressed shadows so I am really really hoping we get one of those in April.
