Morphe Sudden Heat Creamy Bronzer Stick

Hello to my Beauty Bag Doll's! I am extremely excited to bring you a review of a new product that I recently purchased at Ulta Beauty. I went in to buy a few thing to restock on and the Morphe display caught my eye. Particularly two products and the Morphe Sudden Heat Creamy Bronzer Stick was something I knew I not only wanted but needed because I was at Ulta Beauty to repurchase the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Contour Wand. I have been using that for contour for a very long time and I paid $42.00 without complaint until I saw the Morphe display and their bronzing stick is $15. I know what your thinking is is as good quality as the Charlotte Tilbury. Yes it is so good! It comes in 5 shades and the Charlotte Tilbury comes in 7 shades. Yes I do think Morphe needs to expand and they actually have since I purchased mine in a version called Morphe Shapelifter Micro Contour Stick in 7 shades. 

The Morphe Sudden Heat Creamy Bronzer Stick is a Beauty Bag Must-have!


I am not going to base my entire review on comparing the Morphe Sudden Heat Creamy Bronzer Stick to Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Contour Wand because to me they both give you the contouring effect you are looking for just a different price points and different applications. I will leave it at that. I am loving the Morphe Sudden Heat Creamy Bronzer Stick so much that I did not purchase the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Contour Wand that day. I went home tried the Morphe Sudden Heat Creamy Bronzer Stick and fell in love. The formula is so creamy that it glides onto the skin and melts after you blend it, I prefer a brush to blend it with. It leaves this very beautiful snatched effect. I choose the lightest shade called Flicker because I knew it would give me the contour perfection if I am wearing my summer shade of foundation or my fall/ winter shade of foundation. I am very impressed and happy with the quality of this formula for the price point. After using this daily for 6 weeks I am beginning to see I need a repurchase soon so it is on my list. 

The shade Flicker is perfect for me. 


I did want to mention that I had the 20% off friends and family discount for Sephora this week and I did repurchase the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Contour Wand because I was saving money but without the discount I would have not repurchased it. I will now keep both in my Beauty Bag but will only be purchasing the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Contour Wand with my discount code when I have one and only if it is completely empty other that that the Morphe Sudden Heat Creamy Bronzer Stick is honestly a better formula because I used it with different types of foundations and it never caused my foundation to pill like the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Contour Wand does sometimes. Only honesty here. 

Stay tuned Beauty Bag Doll's because I have another review coming soon and the new product may or may not replace another very expensive brand I have used for years.

It Cosmetics Bye Bye Pores Bronzer

#BeautyBagDolls and #ITGirls I am so happy to have my hands on the new It Cosmetics Bye Bye Pores Bronzer. I am a girl who loves bronzer and during the summer months its important to give yourself a safe tan which is why I love the It Cosmetics Bye Bye Pores Bronzer. This bronzer is giving you a beautiful sun kissed look while giving your skin a poreless airbrush finish. I must mention it in the shade Beach and it smells like a coconut which to me smells like the beach. Read on to learn more



It Cosmetics always makes my favorite bronzer and Sunshine in A Compact  has been the one I have used over and over again. Hitting then pan finishing and purchasing again. When It Cosmetics came out with Bye Bye Pores Bronzer I thought what an amazing concept making my favorite Bye Bye Pores powder into a bronzer. Some background information according to It Cosmetics is that it is "developed with plastic surgeons, Bye Bye Pores Bronzer is your revolutionary bronzing finishing veil that airbrushes away the look of pores while adding instant sun-kissed warmth to your skin. Infused with Bye Bye Pores Optical Blurring Technology and real silk, this talc-free, oil-free bronzer is designed to glide over your skin without settling into lines or pores and diffuse the look of imperfections for your most flawless glow. The universally flattering shade also features coconut extract for essential moisture and a refreshing sensorial experience, plus anti-aging collagen, hyaluronic acid, peptides and vitamins A, C, and E. Wear on bare skin or over your favorite complexion products, as your all-over bronzer, for your features but better." I am so in love with this bronzer it is something I dust on and it adds the perfect sun kissed look to my face and neck. I can also contour with it if I am in a hurry and it makes me look on point. I am in love with the outcome of this bronzer and each time I open it I smile because it smells amazing! This bronzer is a beauty bag must have. I love It Cosmetics Bye Bye Pores Bronzer and give it a 5 $$$$$ along with EXTRA LOVE FROM ANNA!

These are all the products you need to have a flawless makeup. Learn more and buy yours here @ http://www.mehron.com/default.asp

3 products you must have to have a flawless face thanks to Mehron!


When I got this out of the box after it arrived I could not wait to try it all out and to use it together. I first started with the amazing Mehron ProColorRing Neutralizer. Its not secret that I have acne and acne scars along with some redness and dark circles so this ProColorRing Neutralizer is perfect for me and to have all 5 colors in one convenient package is a dream come true. I patted it on with a sponge per directions and my jaw dropped nothing has ever neutralized my redness or dark circles like this ProColorRing. It is a creamy formula so I never had to tug my skin and its buildable and blendable. I am in love with this one product alone because it made the next product truly life changing!  Buy this now @ http://www.mehron.com/Pro_Color_Ring_Neutralizer_p/505-n.htm

The Mehron Celebre Pro-HD Makeup Foundation that I received in the shade MED1 which is a medium shade. Before I start singing its praises which I will here is a little background information on the Mehron Pro-HD Makeup Foundation is an oil-free and fragrance-free cream makeup that delivers satin-smooth, buildable coverage that is non-greasy and great for all skin types. I am so thrilled that this is a full coverage buildable cream foundation that make me have flawless skin in seconds. Its easy to apply and my skin looks smooth and soft to the touch! I have very sensitive skin so I am always afraid of foundation because of my sensitive skin but with powerful antioxidants such as vitamin E, pomegranate and aloe vera that help soothe the skin I am thrilled to say I have no issues. Buy yours today @ http://www.mehron.com/Celebre_Cream_Makeup_p/201.htm

The final product from Mehron that I received for review is the Mehron Celebre Pro-HD Cream-Contour & Highlight Palette. I love to contour and to highlight the only problem is I have never been able to apply it and forget it. It has always faded off for me by the middle of the day until now. I never ever tried a cream contour and highlight until the Mehron Celebre Pro-HD Cream-Contour & Highlight Palette came into my life. This has 12 shades one portable palette which is not only convenient but smart. I can pick and choose my contour and highlight shades as my skin tones changes throughout the year. With summer and self tanner I have every shade I need in one place. I am so happy with the formula because it too contains vitamin E, pomegranate and aloe vera. I am so happy with the results of my cream contour and highlight palette long lasting and non irritating! Great makeup so find yours here  @  http://www.mehron.com/Celebre_Pro_HD_Cream_Contour_Highlight_Palette_p/201-pal-ch.htm

 All three of these different Mehron products make me give them all a 5 $$$$$ FOR THEIR  QUALITY, VERSATILITY AND HIGH PERFORMACE!

According to the It Cosmetics description "This is your best-selling favorite with a facelift—and your secret to making contouring easy, whether you’re a sculpting pro or trying it for the first time! Developed with plastic surgeons, the leading experts in contouring and aesthetics, each powder shade is formulated with proprietary Perfect Lighting Technology to mimic real facial contouring and provide a foolproof alternative to fillers. While the four contour shades absorb light and minimize the areas to which you apply them, the two highlighters enhance features you want to pull forward, creating the appearance of more volume. Talc-free, and perfect for all skin types and skin tones, these shades are infused with anti-aging collagen, silk and peptides to blend effortlessly and deliver smooth, natural-looking coverage that lasts all day. Added bonus: There’s an included how-to guide to make sculpting your most beautiful you easier than ever!"

The shades are for all skin tones and the highlight shades are in matte and radiance! How could you as for more??!

Doll 10 Part 1- Face

Happy New Year #BeautyBagDolls

I hope you all had a wonderful and beautiful New Year! Welcome to 2016 and to my Beauty Bag Blog! I want to thank all of my current readers for the wonderful 2015 and Welcome any new readers you have come at a great time I am bringing to you today Part 1 of my 2 part Doll 10 Beauty series! I was so thrilled when the package arrived and a bag full of Doll 10 Beauty products! Two of the products are I will be review for you today are the complimentary Doll 10 HydraGel Foundation and Doll 10 Cheek to Chic Blush & Contour Palette. These two are available at QVC.com here @ http://www.qvc.com/Doll-10-HydraGel-Foundation-with-Brush-Auto-Delivery.product.A274019.html?sc=A274019-Targeted&cm_sp=VIEWPOSITION-_-12-_-A274019&catentryImage=http://images.qvc.com/is/image/a/19/a274019.001?$uslarge$ and at Doll10.com here @ http://www.doll10.com/products/cheek-to-chic-blush-and-contour-palette

Beauty Bag Musts for 2016 from Doll 10


My jaw dropped as my eyes glazed over in excitement over all the products in the bag of goodies that Doll 10 sent me but I just knew I had to start my review with the Doll 10 HydraGel Foundation and Doll 10 Brush No.4. This is an amazing formula that is so incredibly hydrating yet suitable for all skin types because right now my skin is still acne prone yet feeling so dry from the winter weather! It also is lightweight yet full coverage. For me I squeeze some out on the back of my hand and apply it on my face with the AMAZING Brush that just glides over the skin without pulling or tugging and it is cut perfectly to get under my eyes to cover my dark circles! The consistency is superior because I didn't have to go back and put more on. Only over my dark circles I went back to really cover them up but that meant I did not need concealer because this is truly highly pigmented HydraGel Foundation. It is lightly scented but its hardly noticeable and does not irritate your skin at all! THIS IS A TRULY FULL COVERAGE HYDRATING FOUNDATION THAT GIVES YOUR SKINAGLOW WHICH IS WHY I GIVE IT A 5 $$$$$ Buy yours today @     http://www.qvc.com/Doll-10-HydraGel-Foundation-with-Brush-Auto-Delivery.product.A274019.html?sc=A274019-Targeted&cm_sp=VIEWPOSITION-_-12-_-A274019&catentryImage=http://images.qvc.com/is/image/a/19/a274019.001?$uslarge$

To contour or not to?! Hello I contour and I want some more! For anyone who is afraid of this concept like I was for a while when this craze started please don't be! It so easy and Doll 10 has made it even easier! I received the Cheek to Chic Blush & Contour Palette which has six pots of perfect shades in one place that are perfect! 2 Blushes that are the perfect shade that I absolutely love, they are called Peach Keen and Dolled Up. Soft and subtle yet buildable to whatever color of blush you want on the apple of your cheeks.(these 2 are located in the first 2 pots on the top row next to that is the bronzer). This Bronzer is amazing its called Golden Pearl and it is exactly that! It gives you this golden bronzed look without looking orange at all. I love this shade of Bronzer Doll 10 got it right I look like I was kissed by the sun a golden goddess! The bottom row from left to right has 2 pots of a contour shades one is called Shady Lady and the other is called Sculpted.  Shady Lady is a lighter contour shade where as Sculpted is darker depending on how sculpted you want you contouring to be done depends on what shade you use but I can tell you right now I use both pretty equally depending on the day or the events I need to go to. The final pot in the palette is a highlighter in the shade Glow. This is a perfect shade that truly makes you look like you are glowing from within, its very natural and I love how it erases my fine  lines from view from around my eyes. The Doll 10 Cheek to Chic Blush & Contour Palette is a beauty bag must I give it a 5 $$$$$ FOR ITS ABILITY TO SCULT AND HIGHTLIGHT YOUR FACE TO PERFECTION!
