10:35:00

Hello rosebuds,

ESTEE LAUDER has team up with VICTORIA BECKHAM to launch 17 amazing products for creating a perfect sexy look. It’s like a dream come true for all the beauty lovers. I was so confused when I had a look at these products but finally I got to pick up the best selling HIGHLIGHTER. I was lucky enough to get it.

ESTEE LAUDER VICTORIA BECKHAM MODERN MERCURY HIGHLIGHTER is a powder highlighter with a a warm rose gold shade having lots of gold pink shimmer, It is to create a sweaty- skin look.

When I got this highlighter I cant say how excited I was. I had heard some of the reviews saying that this is a re release of the product as previously they had launched similar highlighter. I would have never wanted to miss on such amazing highlighter. The packaging is classy it comes in a dark blue cardboard box with a black and gold square shaped compact. It has full size mirror on one side. The packaging looks absolutely stunning. Its totally worth spending on this highlighter.

It’s a beautiful powder highlighter which stays well on for 8-9 hrs. The texture is incredibly soft and buttery. Color pay off is excellent. Its so highly pigmented that you just need a little bit of product to get a dazzling effect. It’s a super blendable formula which can be applied with all type of brushes. When I first swatched these product it just too my mind away I was so surprised with its smooth texture and its intensity. I loved the formula texture and pigmentation. Doesn’t make my pores look bigger. Its so highly pigmented and the product is buildable to give you a metallic glow too. This highlighter can also be used as eyeshadow or to highlight inner corners of eyes.

I would love to do Strobing with such intense highlighter. The color suits perfectly to my fair skin tone. It can add a bit color to medium or warm skin tones but it looks pretty good.

Overall if you are highlighter girl like me who needs that perfect glow you need to grab them before its out of stock. I am totally obsessed with this highlighter. When I get such amazing product in classy packaging I really don't mind spending on it. Have you tried this highlighter this is one of my top rated favourite highlighter which one is yours?

NYX BORN TO GLOW LIQUID ILLUMINATOR and OMBRE BLUSH REVIEW

12:37:00

Hello angels,

Most of you know I went little crazy picking up some of the NEW NYX products I am so eagerly waiting to try them all. So as winter is coming we all need that creamy liquid illuminating highlighter for our skin. I though of trying this liquid illuminators BORN TO GLOW from NYX. They had 3 different shades in it and i went for PURE GOLD. I don't know what was going on in my mind while selecting this shade. But I was really excited to try the gold one. This liquid illuminator comes in a mini plastic tube.

It comes in a liquid form and has a very light texture. The moment you press the tube a gold liquid oozes out which has lots of gold shimmer in it. It has a pearly sheen and looks like metallic gold.

You can mix this with your foundation or moisturizer to give a golden sun kissed glow to your skin. Also you can use after foundation as illuminator on cheekbones to highlight your face.

This product definitely gives you warm golden glow but the shimmer particles are too visible and so I wouldn’t suggest this if you have large pores. Pure gold goes well on warm medium tones rather then fair cool tones. You need just a drop of illuminator and blend it with your fingers on cheekbones. Due to its creamy consistency it blends so well on skin. Also its not so runny or watery in consistency. Very little is required so it really lasts you long.

This illuminator once its set stays for around 7 hrs. It doesn’t look dull neither fades out even in humid climate. Girls having oily or combination skin can definitely use liquid illuminators now as they wont melt down or fade away. The iridescent sparkle stays on long for whole day. The pigmentation is good enough its not sheer neither its like other liquid highlighter which are really difficult to blend in, this illuminator has no fragrance and gives you a very shimmery finish rather than soft glow.

Overall I did like it staying power the most. Also I had not expected it to blend in so well. Being liquid illuminator it really gets difficult to get a soft glow. Also it sets so quickly that you don’t have to wait for long time. This illuminator can go on every skin type and every weather. They are bit expensive but it also lasts you long as very little is required.

Now lets talk about the product which I was most excited about its Ombre blush in shade FEEL THE HEAT.

I absolutely loved the blush its comes in black round plastic case with a full size mirror inside. It doesn't contain any brush so its difficult to use for travelling. This blush has beautiful ombre effect of gold highlighter and Orange powder blush. Its super pigmented and you need very little for flush of color on cheeks. The powder is soft and contains no shimmer. Its super blendable and stays for almost 6-7 hrs. The golden highlighter can be used separately or with the blush. When used together it adds sheen to your blush. I love using both the ways. I really liked the concept of ombre blush and its very attractive the shades are beautiful the one I choose can go well on all skin tones, best for warm indian skin tones.
Overall must have blush highly pigmented and excellent color pay off. The formula is powdery make sure you tap the brush before application as it picks up lot of product. Also the formula is good for oily skin but for drier skin you need to moisturise your skin so that the powder doesn't enhance your dry patches. If you love experimenting with the some bold bright blushes this are the ones for you.
TIP- Please try shades before purchasing as some of the shades may look too dark and patchy.

COLOURPOP ELECTRIC SLIDE SUPER SHOCK CHEEK HIGHLIGHTER REVIEW

11:11:00

Hey angels,

Hope you all are doing well. I was actually about to talk about Maybelline Fit Me blush range but some how today..I landed up reviewing one of my latest Highlighters from ColourPop Cosmetics. If you are on instagram you must be knowing about ColourPop Cosmetics. And if you are new to this brand let me tell you they have got amazing range of eyeshadows, gel liners, blushes and lipsticks. This is going to be my first product review from Colour Pop cosmetics so i was pretty excited. They have got this Super Shock Cheek highlighter in Electric Slide which is almost like a true gold pearly pigmented highlighter and Fanny Pack which is a icy silver pearly highlighter. I always love golden glow so i picked up ELECTRIC SLIDE

I absolutely loved ColourPop packaging every product comes in a white color box this highlighter comes in a round white plastic jar with a lid which is like twist open kind. It’s a pressed pigment but on touch it feels almost like a soft creamy smooth powder. It gives lot of sheen to cheeks. And can be used over your foundation. It blends easily on cheeks it has got super pigmentation. You can also use them as eye shadow. I am totally impressed with the formula they are highly pigmented with complete opacity and you need very little quantity to highlight the areas. It’s a pearly gold highlighter so it will go on almost every skin ones. It gives a warm golden glow to face. You can use them for parties weddings and many other occasions. You can build the coverage from semi sheer to opaque. Sometimes I just use my finger for application and if needed later on I may just blend little with my duo fibre brush.

Overall I loved this product it was not like a creamy highlighter but the texture definitely made me feel that. So girlls having oily skin can also try them out. It stayed for almost 8- 10 hrs.

COLOURPOP ELECTRIC SLIDE

ColourPop has beautiful range of products they are at reasonable price with much great range of lipsticks and eye shadows. Moreover all products are super pigmented. I have got some more products too will be soon sharing my reviews on it. You need to keep jar closed after having used as they say you can loose the pearl effect of highlighter. You can give intense look or sheer as you desired. For me finger gives highest coverage but you can go sheer with using flat foundation brush or duo fiber brush for air brushed effect. This highlighter is totally different from the one I was using like Mary Lou Manizer from the balm cosmetics or mac whisper of guilt. If you looking for perfect gold highlighter you can include this one on your list. I really hope they start worldwide shipping soon. Have you tried ColourPop cosmetics? Please Comment down below.
