Okay, so, I saw this thing online about the Alexis Vogel makeup kit and I got curious. I mean, who wouldn’t be? Alexis Vogel, the lady behind some of Pamela Anderson’s killer looks back in the day? Sign me up! So I went ahead and got myself one of those “Make Me Over” kits. Yeah, it set me back 349 bucks, but I figured, why not? Let’s see what this is all about.
Unboxing Time
First off, the kit arrived, and I ripped that box open like a kid on Christmas morning. Inside, there’s this book, right? It’s supposed to be full of Alexis’s secrets on how to get all glammed up. Cool, cool. Then there are all these goodies for your face, eyes, and lips. I laid everything out and just stared at it for a minute. Pretty stuff.
Diving into the Book
I started flipping through the book. It’s got all these tips and tricks, you know, how to do your makeup like a pro, Alexis style. Honestly, some of it was kinda basic, but then there were these little nuggets of wisdom that made me go, “Huh, never thought of it that way.” I spent a good chunk of my afternoon just reading and trying to absorb all the info.
Playtime with Products
- Face Stuff: Okay, so I started with the face products. There’s a foundation, some concealer, and this contour thing. I dabbed on the foundation, and it felt pretty light, which is nice. Blended it all in, and yeah, my skin looked smoother. Not bad.
- Eyes: Next up, the eyes. There’s this palette with a bunch of colors. I went for a smoky eye ’cause, why not? The shadows are pigmented, I’ll give them that. Blending took a bit of work, but I got there in the end. Added some liner and mascara from the kit, and boom, my eyes were popping.
- Lips: Last but not least, the lips. There’s a liner and a couple of lipsticks. I lined my lips, which, I’ll admit, I don’t do often. Then I picked a nude-ish lipstick and filled in. Felt fancy, I gotta say.
The Final Look
Stepped back and looked in the mirror. Okay, I looked… different. Definitely more done up than my usual routine. Was it a total transformation? Maybe not. But did I feel like I could strut into a party and own the room? Heck yeah! The makeup felt good on my skin, didn’t feel cakey or anything. And I gotta admit, I felt pretty darn glamorous.
My Thoughts
So, was the Alexis Vogel makeup kit worth the splurge? I’d say it’s a fun experience. You get to play around with quality makeup and learn a few tricks from a makeup legend. Plus, that book is a nice little coffee table piece. Would I use everything in the kit every day? Probably not. But for those days when I wanna feel extra, yeah, I’ll be reaching for this kit. It’s like having a little piece of Hollywood glam right in my own home.
And that’s pretty much my adventure. I tried, I played, I learned, and now my makeup game is just a little bit stronger. Not too bad for a day’s work, huh?
