Wickedly Beautiful by Beautifully Disney

   Disney has created their very own makeup line called "Beautifully Disney". I can honestly say that when I found out I was so excited that I immediately was searching the internet trying to get my hands on it. My two favourite things had collided and I almost couldn't believe it was true. Since I don't live anywhere near California or Florida I made my order off of the disney parks website (http://www.disneystore.com/disney-parks-product/accessories/beauty/mn/1001081+1007301/). The shipping was reasonable and the package arrived much quicker than I expected. The items were packed so carefully in a way too big box. I appreciate it though when companies do this because it feels like they really want me to recieve my items in perfect condition. In case you were curious I found out about the Beautifully Disney line through the Disney blog.

   Onto the products! In this collection called "Wickedly Beautiful", the theme was the princesses and their nemesis. They included the classic princesses (the first princesses to someone who is a younger disney fan) and the evil doer who did them wrong in their story. Included was Snow White and the Evil Queen, Cinderella and Lady Tremaine, Aurora(Sleeping Beauty) and Maleficent and last but not least Ariel and Ursula. There were 2 eyeshadow quads, one that was themed princess and one that was themed evil, 8 lipglosses eached themed to their own character and 8 nail polishes that were also themed to a character.
   When I first saw the products, I fell in love with the wide range of colours and the beautiful packaging. I had to have them! I was most attracted to the lip glosses and nail polishes.Unfortunately, only the nail polishes are availble in mini sets of 4 on the website, but you are able to order over the phone and through email if you would like to purchase a full size of a polish from the park (find this information on the blog). I thought the eyeshadow quads were beautiful but the colours were not quite unique enough for me to want them... I had to convince myself of this so I wouldn't just buy them because they were disney. I have so much eyeshadow as it is so I had to resist the temptation. However I think the eyeshadow quads would be great for anyone looking for versatile palettes that can be used to create multiple looks.
   So I purchased 2 lip glosses and the mini set of the princess nail polishes.

Lip Glosses(from left to right): Mysterious Mermaid, Enchanted Slumber

 

I purchased these particular shades because I thought the "Mysterious Mermaid" was the most wearable, natural look for my lips and skin tone, and I picked the "Enchanted Slumber" gloss because princess Aurora has always been one of my favourite princesses. These glosses have good pigmentation and have an average lasting time on your lips. My only complaint about these glosses (that some people might actually appreciate) is that they aren't very sticky. I agree with most people when they say that MAC glosses can be a bit too sticky and therefore uncomfortable, but that doesn't mean that I want my gloss to feel like I am putting water on my lips. I feel like without the sticky quality that most glosses have, these glosses don't stay on my lips as long as they could. If they were only a bit more sticky, these would be my favourite lip glosses ever!

"Mysterious Mermaid" and "Enchanted Slumber"



    There were 2 sets of mini nail polishes available online. I bought the princess set mainly for the green shade called "Ocean Mist". I am so glad that I was able to try the other shades though. These nail polishes are absolutely amazing!

I hope that soon they have the full size bottles available online. I love these polishes so much and the colours are so beautiful. They dry incredibly fast and you could get away with applying only one coat if you wanted to with all of the colours except the light blue shade "off to the ball". I found that the polish starts to chip on day 2 of wear. I find this to average for my nail polishes. I don't know if it is maybe the top coat I use or how much I work with my hands but I was not surprised to see small chips forming on the second day of having the polish on my nails. I really don't mind the chipping since these polishes are so easy to reapply and dry so incredibly fast. I would also like to include that this was by far the quickest manicure I have ever done!

Off to the Ball (3 coats to set it apart from the white paper)

 

   Overall I would definetley reccomend these products to anyone interested. I found these products performed amazingly and I think they are great for those who are fans of Disney and makeup. I had high expectations for these products because they carry the Disney name and I was not disappointed. Disney did it again!
