Maybelline Fit Me Concealer Review!

Monday 9 March 2015

I'm here with another review for you guys ... 

Maybelline Fit Me concealer


What they say:

FLAWLESS THAT LETS THE REAL YOU COME THROUGH
BEYOND MATCHING: FRESH, BREATHABLE, NATURAL 

Why You'll Love It

It's makeup that doesn’t mess with you.
• No oils, no waxes, no nonsense
• Natural coverage that leaves skin the way it was meant to be…fresh, breathing, natural
• Exclusive translucent base and lightweight pigments allow skin's natural highs and lows to show through
• Non-comedogenic, dermatologist-tested, ophthalmologist-tested, fragrance-free

For Best Results

Dot concealer onto imperfections or under eyes. Pat with finger to blend.
Also, it comes in 6 different shades. 
What I thought: 
This concealer has been my go to concealer for the past couple of months, its super easy to apply and it applies flawlessly really. I have the shade fair which is lighter than my skin colour so I use it to brighten up under my eyes. It blends so easily and looks super natural on the skin it doesn't look cakey whatsoever and it give the most beautiful finish. I tried blending it using a brush and using my fingers, it works well with both but I've been blending it with my fingers more than using the brush lately as its quick and easy. 

The coverage is good, I don't have dark under eyes but I have those veins under my eyes that annoys me so this concealer cover them so well. Also, it lasts all day, like I usually apply it in the morning and come back at night before I take my makeup off and you can still see it there like I don't notice any fading.

Overall, I'd give this concealer 10/10 I seriously cannot fault it. I'm in love with it! 


MAC Zoom Lash Mascara Review

Wednesday 4 March 2015

Hey guys! 

I'll be writing a lot more individual reviews on my blog, I find it much better than reviewing more than one product all in one blog post.

Today, I'll be reviewing Mac zoom lash mascara. I just got this two days ago, the sales lady talked me into it of course because I never see a good review on mac mascaras and especially this one. 

What they say: 

Major drama. Lasts all day. Creamy, velvety formula builds density and conditions. Feels light, 

supple. Ultra-sculpted brush has three-sided fibres to embrace and separate each lash, hugging 

every curve. Coats in one stroke from root to tip. No smudging.


I took it after she tried it on my lashes I have long, thick and curled lashes to begin with but this mascara just made a dramatic difference. It made my lashes super suuper long and fully curled, and it holds up the curl for so long I love it really. 



I usually don't get a mascara with this type of wand, I like plastic wands with short thin spikes because they separate each lash like no other but surprisingly I loved this one just because I really saw the difference it made to my lashes and I got compliments from every single person who saw me that day.  


So to sum it up for you guys, I'm going to write the pros and cons of this mascara.

Pros:

  1. Lengthens like no other
  2. Curl the lashes beautifully and the curls last all day
  3. I have very oily eyelids and teary eyes but I didn't experience any smudging or smearing
  4. The wand gets into every single lash 
Cons:

  1. I find it hard to remove, I cleansed my eyes twice and used makeup remover wipes to get it fully removed



I'd give it a 4 out of 5 just because I find it hard to remove and I dislike cleansing my eyes more than once I feel like it damages my eyes.

2014 Beauty favourites!!!

Monday 2 March 2015

Hello there!!
I know I'm pretty late but here are my 2014 beauty favourites!!

  • Face Products 
  1. Benefit Porefessional


This is one of the few primers that actually does what it says, it fills in my pores, blur them and makes my skin look absolutely flawless but I did notice with this primer that it doesn't control my oily face that much, I notice that my skin gets oily in like two hours or so.

Also, I like wearing this primer alone for no make up day or days where I'm lazy and can't be bothered to put on foundation and all. I'll just wear this with little bit of blush and a gloss and I'm ready to go! 

2. Hourglass veil primer 



I love love love this primer! Although its pricey but its worth it. It blurs out your skin which leaves it super flawless and this really reduce my oiliness like no other! I don't get oily for over 8 hours.. This is amazing thank you hourglass for this amazing product.  

3. Makeup Forever HD foundation



Love the dewy finish it gives, love the coverage and the longevity. Its so light on the skin and its so skin like, it doesn't look like I have foundation on. I really love everything about it, I'd give it 10/10 and will repurchase for sure. 

4. Clarins Instant Light Brush-On Perfector


I don't suffer from undereye bags or dark circles but I like a good highlighted undereye and this does the job for me! 

The colour is perfect, it doesn't crease on me, it blends really well and it looks pretty natura I love it. I applied it once after this photo was taken and I ran out! I really need to repurchase ASAP. Worth every penny. 

5. Nars radient creamy concealer 



I use this to cover any blemishes and sometimes under my eyes but because I got this in the same shade as my skin I don't use it for my undereye area that much. I've ordered one 2 shades lighter than my skin waiting for it to arrive! 
Its light weight and covers so well and most importantly doesn't crease at all.

  • Blush and Highlighters

1. The balm Mary-Lou Manizer



THE BEST HIGHLIGHTER OUT THERE! It's a beautiful champagney colour, every time I have it on people ask me about it. I think it shouldn't be used for everyday make up or mininal make up, I wear it for special events only. 

2. Chi Chi wall of shimmer



I have been using this highlighter through out the year of 2014, this has been my go to highlighter. The colour is so beautiful and it looks so natural on the skin. 



3. Diorskin rosy glow blush



My favourite blush of all time! This is my second one I discovered this way back and I loved it ever sense. The colour is just so beautiful, It may look bright in the photo but its the perfect pink colour and looks so natural on the skin!

  • Eye Products

1. The Balm Schwing eyeliner 


This has the best pigmentation ever and I love that the colour is super super black! It doesn't smudge at all and stay put all day long. Pretty easy to use and great for beginners as well.

2. L'oreal Voluminous Butterfly mascara in midnight blacks


My HG drugstore mascara, this mascara gives my lashes length and volume like no other and it doesn't clump or smudge at all. I really like its wand, it has such a unique shape. Overall I love this mascara and recommend it. 

3. Pupa multiplay eye pencil 


I'm always looking for the perfect white eye pencil and after a couple of misses I have found the one! 
You can also use it as an eye shadow. This has the most perfect white colour and its super pigmented, never smudged on me and lasts for a pretty long time. This is my second pencil and I'll keep repurchasing over and over! Its that good!! 

4.  The balm nude'tude palette


I got this because somehow I lost my lorac pro palette, I couldn't find it anywhere! And I wanted to try this for a very long time. I love this palette, it has the perfect amount of shimmers and mattes. The colours are super pigmented and very easy to blend. The only problem I have with this is that after and 3 hours I can see the eye shadow fading and sometimes all the eye shadow disappear ( I have oily eyelids) but I didn't have that problem with the lorac palette. If you don't have oily eyelids then I recommend this, it is such a beautiful palette!

  • Lip Products

1. Bourjois Sweet Kiss lipstick 

It's obvious how much I love this lipstick. Thank god I have back ups, this has the most gorgeous colour ever. I tried finding out what colour is it but couldn't find anything on the packaging. Anyways its a beautiful peachy pink, it applies smooth and creamy and very often I get compliments on my lips when I have this on. It's also moisturizing and it doesn't dry out my lips. 

2. CK pure colour lipstick in Liplock


This lipstick is so creamy and moisturizing, the colour itself is absolutely gorgeous. It's a dark red/purplish colour, such a great colour for special events. I get complimented so much everytime I wear it.

3. Mac lipstick in Herione 

I looooveeee this colour so freakin' much, I'm all about those crazy colours, I've been wearing this a lot this year. One thing I don't like about the formula, its very drying on  my lips. Everytime I have it on, my lips gets so dryyy.

4. Mac lustre in Giddy

This has a very beautiful pinky coral shade with a golden undertone to it. Because its from the lustre shade its quite sheer but builds up nicely. I usually wear it to the gym as its quite sheer and I think its perfect for the gym.

5. NYX soft matte lip cream in Milan



10/10 !! I have almost every colour of those lip creams, they're absolutely amazing. It's so pigmented but stays on the lips very nicely, it looks like I don't have any lipstick on looks as if my natural lip colour is this pink. Its super long lasting, I could have it all day, eat and drink and it stays put. Love love love this, Great job NYX.
