Shadow of Whales Concert Review | August 30, 2014

Shadow of Whales Concert Review

Hello everyone! I'm back with a concert review! I recently had the chance to represent Hit It Off Media and take photos for Shadow of Whales at their concert in Houston on August 30th. They played at Warehouse Live and the show was amazing. I'm so happy that I had the chance to cover their show. I definitely found one of new favorite bands.

Shadow of Whales is an alternative indie-pop band from Austin, Texas. The guys in the band are all very sweet. Jeremy, the bassist, introduced me to all of the other band members and we had a good time chatting with one another. Shadow of Whales was the third act of the night to go on and the crowd was very amped up. Every band member had very good stage presence; they all moved around, had fun, and interacted with the crowd. At times, I realized that I would stop taking photos and cheer along with the crowd.

I'm so glad that I had the chance to meet these wonderful guys and review their show. If you are ever in the area, I would definitely recommend catching one of their shows.

Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick Review

Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick Review!

It's review time again! I recently wore the Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick in Red and wanted to let y'all know what I though of it.

I have never really worn lipstick before as I have always been really insecure about my non-existent upper lip, but I saw Sarah Hawkinson wear red lipstick in her recent GRWM video and felt inspired to wear it. Grace (danger0usperson on YouTube) also wears a lot of lipstick and she looks fierce. Haha. 

But on to the review... 

Right off the bat, I really liked the packaging. It's very sleek and looks really nice when you slip it into your bag. :) Once I put it on, I really liked the color. My only issue is that it's very easy to stain your fingers or the outside edge of your mouth. But I mean, it's red, I'm pretty sure most, if not all, red lipsticks do that.

My other issue is that it is very drying. Within two hours, the lipstick had dried and my lips became pretty chapped. The lipstick also doesn't last very long. The color fades pretty drastically as the day goes on and you have to reapply quite often.

Overall, I doubt that I will repurchase in the future... Let me know in the comments if you have ever purchased this lipstick and let me know what you thought of it.

Here's a photo of me wearing the lipstick in one of my recent Instagram posts, it was also featured in my last OOTD blog post. :)

Thanks for reading!
