3INA MAKEUP PRODUCTS HAUL REVIEW

00:21:00

3INA is a Spanish makeup brand which recently opened their first store in India, MUMBAI. 3INA is pronounced as MINA. This brand started its innovative beauty products last year itself. They have been opening stores worldwide. Looking at the store and products it reminds me of 3CE products which was Korean beauty brand. They have huge collection of lipsticks, foundations, eyeliners, color mascaras, cream shadows they have got all.

All products are very reasonably priced and I hope they don’t get pricey in future. So no one recommend this brand neither I have read any reviews this my complete experience with few products which I tried out at the store.

I got a matte lipstick, eye pencil with smudger, a cream eyeshadow pot and highlighter.

So all of the products comes in white cardboard box packaging with the product in black matte packaging

The packaging is decent, sturdy and travel friendly.

Lets start with the highlighter as this was first product I tried. It’s a rose gold kinda shade. There are no shade names for any product so its really confusing the no.is 200 for highlighter that I bought. Its a golden highlighter with pink tones. It comes in black square shape compact with no mirror or brush. It’s a powder based highlighter which is highly pigmented. The shade go well on my skin tone. I felt the texture could be more smooth and softer. Its not gritty doesn’t contain visible shimmer particles. It gives a nice soft glow to face when applied on cheekbones and on bridge of nose.
OVERALL RECOMMENDED its gives soft glow to skin and stays well for 6-7 hrs. also its very affordable so if you are new to the world of beauty this can be great pick for your vanity.
PRICE 850/-INR

Coming to matte lipstick I picked up shade no. 411 it’s a nude warm neutral shade which is suitable for lighter skin tones.

This lipstick looks more like a natural lip color to me. It’s a everyday shade and I love using it for work days. It comes in a black matte square tube. The lipstick doesn’t go completely inside and I am always worried to chip off the tip.

The formula is bit drying and they lack pigments. It gives a complete matte finish. It needs dragging which I didn’t like. The texture could be softer and more creamier. The color is not so intense and requires multiple application. it does give even application but it needs to tug. The formula doesn’t settle into fine lines. I felt like the formula was having more of wax and lack of pigments which I was not happy about. It was a disappointment as I had great expectation also when I swatched they were much smoother. The formula doesn’t bleed or smudge and lasts only for 3 hrs. The formula does transfer and it easily fades away which was again disappointing.

This lipsticks are not for pigmented lips as they don’t give coverage. This lipstick doesn't contain any fragrance. Also for complete opacity you need 3 coats which is not so good.
PRICE 650/-INR Shade no. 411

Next product I am going to talk about is the eye pencil in shade no 206. I picked up a purple shade this pencil has a smudger to create a Smokey eyes.

Its available in many shades like brown, blue, green & black. This pencils are highly pigmented and can be smudged easily with the help of sponge tip applicator on other side of pencil. The texture is soft and creamy gives even application glides effortlessly. The formula is softer and you can waste lot of product while sharpening. It doesn’t contain any shimmer or glitter but has a glossy finish. While creating a smokey eye look it was quite patchy as it didn't blended well which is a downside of the product. Also it doesn’t help in creating intense Smokey eyes. This pencils is great for using on water lines as it doesnt smudge and stays well for 5 hrs.
PRICE -650/-INR

Now the best product I purchased was a cream eyeshaodw in 317. This eye shadows comes in a glass jar with a black lip. The formula is soft creamy and once its blended it sets like a waterproof formula which doesn't crease OR budge at all. It doesn't even flake.

Once they set in they don’t smudge and it only comes off with makeup remover. It contains icy pink glitter. I absolutely love the formula and texture of this shadows. They are highly pigmented. They have many different shades and it looks amazing when applied on eyelid with a flat brush also you can use them to highlight inner corner of eyes. This cream shadows are very easy to use and you can use your finger tips too. I totally recommned this cream eyeshaodws.

PRICE- 700/-INR 3ML

Overall some of the products are really worth trying out while some of them were totally disappointing. In all 3INA is has wide range of products so try them before purchasing. Most of the formula lacks pigments and intensity. I really hope they have shade names as shade no. are really confusing especially for every product. All the products mentioned above are PARABEN FREE. Well I loved cream shadows and highlighter have been using them for a while now.

HAVE YOU 3INA BRAND OF MAKEUP? Are you going to try them?

NEW NYKAA PAINTSTIX REVIEW SWATCHES

08:54:00

Hello angels,

Hope you all have a fantastic weekend.. NYKAA PAINTSTICKS are rich, intense and highly pigmented.

I really had a good experience with their previous launch of so matte lipstick collection so I was quite confident about the PAINTSTIX formula. Whenever nykaa launches a new product I makes me feel excited. While the paintstix are also available at such affordable prices I was ready to grab them all.

Lets begin with its packaging Firstly when I saw them online they look quite similar too MAC liptensity. Paintstix comes in a plastic color coded tube which looks colorful but they are not sturdy as MAC Liptensity. Nykaa lipsticks are very light and have flat top lipstick.

They have some amazing shade range from pink, plums and brown shades.

I have choose 3 from 12 shades PEACHES & CREAM, TENDER ROSE, ROCK AND ROLL PINK

Paintsticks have a creamy formula which are rich and intense on application.

The texture is soft and smooth giving even application to lips.

The formula doesn’t bleed or smudge it holds on to lips without flaking or drying.

Color pay off is excellent and the colors are super saturated. One stroke and you are ready too go. Due to rich in pigment they are great for darker lips to. It gives complete coverage and opacity on patchy uneven colored lips too. The colors look bright and bold on almost every skin tone. They give a semi matte finish on initial application it felt more like satin finish having little sheen but after some time it turned to more of soft matte finish.

Staying power is for 6-7 hrs after meals they fade away from center of lips. They transfer very little and touch ups are needed. The formula doesn’t settle into fine lines. They have mild sweet fragrance which disappears on application.

OVERALL RECOMMENDED I personally loved the formula and texture.They are very comfortable on lips and the formula holds on very well. I am totally impressed with the staying power. Shades are fun for summer spring. Packaging could be more better and sturdy as it can break if you drop them. Talking about the quantity its definitely less when compared to other lipsticks but i am happy they are reasonably priced.
HAVE YOU TRIED THEM YET? LET ME KNOW WHICH SHADES WOULD YOU LIKE TO PICK.

Peaches and cream

I always try and pick one shade which can be worn on every single day. it’s a perfect peachy rusty kind of shade. Girls you need to have them It’s a warm medium toned shade which makes it look fabulous on indian skin tones.

Tender rose such a beautiful rosy pink shade. A complete girlie color will look pretty on all young girls.

Rock and roll pink This is a perfect purpled toned pink. I love this kind of shades perfect for 90’s disco parties.

SUGAR SMUDGE ME NOT LIQUID LIPSTICK REVIEW SWATCHES

10:14:00

Hello beauties,

When you start a new week with a new lipstick it feels amazing …So I just received my order for NEW SMUDGE ME NOT LIQUID LIPSTICK by Sugar Cosmetics. And I am going to review 3 shades PLUM YUM, TAN FAN, RUST LUST.

They have launched 10 shades but most of them are medium to dark shades which can be wearable by every skin tone.

This liquid lipstick has a very similar packaging to Maybelline velvet liquid mattes by color sensational. It’s a plastic clear tube with black cap and a doe foot applicator. The packaging is quite simple and very travel friendly. Though the doe foot applicator makes the application so easy and defined.

Who doesn’t love liquid lipsticks specially when they are available at such affordable price.

When it comes to texture It leaves behind most of the liquid lipsticks. The formula is so pigmented that it comes out only with a oil based makeup remover

It glides effortlessly on lips the texture is soft and smooth and gives complete coverage in just one swipe.

L-R TAN FAN, RUST LUST, PLUM YUM

But as most of liquid lipsticks this too make my lips dry however I liked its consistency which is not so thin and more like creamy. If you have dry lips do exfoliate them and use a lip balm underneath.

Now this lipsticks go completely matte just like any other liquid mattes it does contain faint fragrance which disappears on application.

Most of the shades go darker after it dries out.

It doesn’t smudge and no smearing. This lipstick stay for as long as you want them too. Even if you have meals they barely come of from the center of lips. You actually don’t need touch ups. And layering off can give you little uneven patch look.

So the best is you take them off completely and reapply again or you can just light apply to the areas where it has faded. This lipsticks are so comfortable to wear from day and night. It doesn’t settle into fine lines.

It doesn’t leave any stain behind and its a kiss proof waterproof formula. So gals you can definitely wear them on this valentine date.

Overall recommended they are very affordable have good texture and formula dries very quickly. They have got beautiful shades which can go on most of skin tones. There is no stickiness and doesn’t transfer at all. I am happy with all of my shades just wished they had launched some light shades too and also with more better pacakging. Try them out and let me know which is your favourite shade.
