So
today I want to talk about the Birchbox exclusive LOC (Love of Color) line. LOC collaborated
with Tati from glamlifeguru to create 5 shadow sticks and 3 lippie sticks. If
you don’t follow her on YouTube you should, she is amazing just like these
shadows and lippies!
I got
my first taste of the line in my November Box Showdown which I chose the
editor box that Tati curated. I bought the rest of the line and it lived up to all
my expectations. Every single time I wear one of the shadows I am complimented
on it.
There
are several different bundles you can order from the Birchbox site. Obviously, I
ordered the bundle that included all of the shadows and lippies. It also came
with a Sharpener. If you just want one color they have that option as well!
So let’s
get swatching!
On
point is a one & done shadow stick. It is a pale gold that is creamy and
opaque. I love this color for an everyday look!
Impress
me is a one & done shadow stick! It is a beautiful rose gold and my
favorite. I highly recommend this color if you are only going to get one. This is
the one color that I have received most of the comments for. I already got a
backup for my backup in this color
Nite owl
is a shadow that is perfect for a nighttime glam look. (I see what you did
there with the name Tati!) This is a beautiful maroon/purple with sparkles that
are not overbearing. Perfect for a smoky eye.
Day
trip is the shadow stick that I received in my Birchbox. It is a pure gold and
my second favorite in this collection! Another must have in my opinion!
Smoke
Screen is a very pretty grey that is perfect for a smoky eye (Tati did it
again!) This shadow is gorgeous and I have nothing like it in my collection
So
that’s it for all of the shadows. The one disclaimer I have with these are make
sure you do one eye at a time as they set fairly quickly and become difficult
to blend out once they set.
Now on
to the three lippies!
First
Kiss is a beautiful nude that is a perfect color for your first kiss! This is
my go to nude lippie so if you are only going to get one lippie in this
collection First Kiss would be my suggestion. It will be flattering on any skin
tone.
Wildest Dreams is a pure red. I wore this on
Christmas eve this year! It is such a perfect color for the holidays! It is
creamy and doesn’t dry your lips out!
Glam
life is a very pretty berry color. I always find it difficult to find the
perfect vampy berry color for my pale complexion but this lippie gives my life!
It compliments my pale skin-tone perfectly without being like WOAH DARK LIP!
The
one downside to these lippies that I have found is if I have any type of lip
product on my lips before applying these they do not apply evenly at all.
So I recommend
making sure your lips are bare before putting them on. They do not dry my lips
out and I find them to be very creamy and almost nourishing.
Overall,
I think Tati knocked these shadows and lippies out of the park. They are great
quality and a definite must have for me.
Bad
news though L
according to Tati they are only here for a limited time so if you were planning
on trying these out pick them up soon because once they are gone they aren’t
coming back!
Let me
know in the comments below if you have tried this line out and what your
favorite from it is!
Until
next time my lovelies!
