2b Colours Makeup Review!

Hey guys!

Press Sample

2B Colours sent me some of their makeup products to try out and I'm presenting you with my review today! You can purchase 2B Colours at Ulta.com and select Ulta stores. I've linking the items below to the Ulta website for your convenience (not affiliate links, yo!)


The My Eye Shadow Base is a balm-like consistency. For me, this product didn't work very well. I typically have slightly oily eyelids and this type of product didn't seem to set on my eyes. I used a Color Tattoo over this and my eyeshadow creased after only a few hours. Unfortunately, this will not be a product that I continue to use :-/


Black Cat Waterproof Eyeliner has a felt marker tip with a slightly flexible tip. This claims to be a waterproof eyeliner and while it is water resistant and I had no creasing or flaking, or fading, I don't know that it's waterproof as it removed very easily. It is a very black eyeliner, which is always a win. We know I'm not good at liquid eyeliner so I'm really excited for eyeliners that have felt tip applicators like this; it's Amanda-proof! LOL



The Primer Make-up Base is a lotion type primer. This is very thin, to the point that you don't need to squeeze the tube to get any lotion out, I just hold the tube over my hand and it comes out. That probably sounds odd but it's not a bad thing! This is a nice feeling primer, it left my skin feeling soft and moisturized.


The Hydrastick in Rose is a hydrating balm that comes in 3 colors. Since it's a balm, it's very very very sheer and pretty much doesn't show up on my lips but that's okay, as it's very moisturizing to wear.


Finally..... BLUE MASCARA! I'm not even going to pretend that I wasn't terrified by this, lol. I was a chicken and applied this over my black mascara and was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't as bright as I was expecting! This mascara comes in 8 colors, so if colored mascara is your jam, 2B Colours has got you covered! And I really like the full bristle brush!


I would check out 2B Colours at your local Ulta or online. The items are affordable and aside from the eye primer and it not setting (which could have been due to my oily eyelids), I enjoyed using these products!

Talk to you soon!
