I posted a little while back about the release of the Disney Villains Collection at ColourPop Cosmetics. This collection looked amazing and I was so thrilled with the items that I got from the Disney Princess Designer Collection that I decided to add a few Villains items to my ColourPop collection.
I bought a lot of eyeshadows from the Disney Princess Collection (see my previous post on that for more details) so I wasn't going to get any from the Villains collection. I decided to get just one because I liked the color and adding it got me free shipping ;)
This is the "Jelly Much Shadow" eyeshadow in the shade "Perfectly Wretched" inspired by Cruella De Vil from 101 Dalmatians. It's kind of a creamy, nude color with some sparkle. I haven't worn it yet but it looks perfect for when you want a little something but still want to maintain a natural look. There are 6 different eyeshadow shades retailing at $8 each.
This is a matte lux lipstick in the shade "Evil Queen", inspired by none other than the Evil Queen from Snow White. It's a gorgeous deep red, which I usually stay away from, but I thought it would make a good evening shade. I don't have any colors like this and I haven't worn it yet, but if all else fails I'll keep it for use during cosplay.
This is another matte lux lipstick in the shade "Hades" inspired by the god of the Underworld. The picture here I think makes the shade look a lot darker than it really is. (The first picture in the post is more accurate). This is a peachy color that looks so pretty worn! Great for my pale skin tone, it's clear I'm wearing a lipstick without being loud. Great with the natural tone makeup I wear the majority of the time.
This is the last item I got from the Villains collection, another matte lux lipstick in the shade "Dr. Facilier" inspired by the Shadow Man from The Princess and the Frog. Dr. Facilier is one of my favorite Disney villains so naturally I wanted this one. This color is difficult to describe and again this picture makes the shade look much darker than it is. The first picture in this post should give you a more accurate idea. It's almost like a pink-ish brown if that makes any sense at all!
Each matte lux lipstick retails at $8 and the appearance of the lipstick outside of the box is the same for all shades.
The packaging for this collection is absolutely gorgeous! The lipstick casing is also really neat with icons from each of the different villains running along the tube.
Another neat touch that the Villains lipsticks have is the word "Villains" running across the back. The picture below is of the Hades shade where I think the wording is clearest.
I am super happy with this collection, there's nothing to dislike! The packaging is amazing, the colors offer something for everyone, you can represent your favorite Villain, get a good quality product, and it's affordable! I would recommend ColourPop's Disney line to every Disney fan! You can purchase from ColourPop's website as well as ShopDisney.

Disney Wisdom - May Collection
This year ShopDisney and Disney Stores have launched the Disney Wisdom series. On the third Saturday of each month, every month through the end of the year, a new collection will be released based on a different character and inspirational quote.
Last month was inspired by Winnie the Pooh and this month is inspired by Pocahontas featuring the quote, "Sometimes the right path is not the easiest one" by Grandmother Willow. A Meeko plush, journal, pin set, mug, t-shirt and wall art have been released at Disney Stores and ShopDisney. Items in May's collection range from $16.95 to $26.95.
We've also been given a preview of June's collection inspired by Lumiere from Beauty and the Beast. Next month's collection will release on June 15.
If you're interested in purchasing any of the items in the Disney Wisdom Collection, be sure to get in line early at your local Disney Store because they will sell out and stores have varying quantities available.

Marvel Vans Haul
With all the excitement surrounding Avengers: Endgame and the upcoming film Spider-Man: Far From Home, I decided it was time I finally posted the Marvel Vans I bought back in December!
The Marvel Vans collection was released way back in the summer and I loved so many pairs! I restrained myself and purchased only one pair - the Black Panther Hi-Sk8 (which I have worn a TON by the way!). Then in December I stopped by a Vans outlet near the Air Force base I was stationed at during that time and I was very surprised to see that they had several different styles from the Marvel collection available, including three in my size!
I really wanted the Deadpool Hi-Sk8 and the Spider-Man canvas shoes, both of which were heavily marked down, but decided I should probably only buy one pair. Unable to decide, I saw they were having a sale (I'm sure it's the same every day) buy one get one half off. Naturally, I bought both pairs. I got military discount on top so I walked out of there incredibly happy with the insane deal I got! Before tax, the Deadpool pair came out at $36 (full retail price was $75) and the Spider-Man pair came out at $13 (full retail price was $65).
I definitely recommend grabbing these collaboration shoes when they're first released if you can't live without them. I don't live that close to an outlet, but even if you do, they can be very hit or miss on the styles and sizes they have. If you want to avoid disappointment I would not wait to see if you can buy them at outlet.
