NEW L’OREAL GLAM BRONZE DUO POWDER IN 102 BRUNETTE HARMONY

01:45:00

Hello angels,

How is your week starting off ? I just need to escape Monday with some coffee and music. So coming to work last week I had post about some New L'Oreal products and coming to Glam bronze duo powder in 102 Brunette Harmony is what we going to talk about today.

This bronzer comes in a square plastic compact case with double level.

First one has a bronzer and highlighter second level has a mirror and brush for application of bronzer.

Firstly before i forget to mention it I loved this product its such a travel friendly compact bronzer cum highlighter. You can just carry them in your bag easily. I am personally fan of big disc shaped bronzers but this one just makes it so more easy. So now you can have a bronzer on the go. This bronzer has two levels as I described. So the first level has two powders one is bronzer and other is highlighter.

The highlighter shade is for highlighting cheekbones while the bronzer is for contouring. You can also combine both the shades and use as shimmery bronzer or blush.

I also liked the texture of powder its not gritty dry or too powdery but it blends well into skin. It doesn't clog my pores or give me any break outs. Doesn't give patchy or cakey look. Stays on well for 6-8 hrs. It doesn’t fade or disappear after few hrs like some of the products do. The shade is perfect for fair to medium skin tones. However medium tones may need to apply more to get a proper bronze effect while fair tones need very little. The bronzer has little sheen to it. NO visible shimmer particles in it. Pigmentation is good enough. The highlighter is lightly pigmented compared to bronzer. You need to apply more to get that glowy effect especially for lighter skin tones. While medium to deeper skin tones can carry it off well.

You can also used this duo powder on eyes for softer crease shadow and highlighting inner corner of eyes.

Overall this product doesn’t serve the purpose of contouring like other matte powders do but it’s a good travel friendly bronzer and highlighter. It looks like natural bronzer for some of the skin tones. The shades are warm and bit of orangey than brown. I would want the highlighter to be more pearly and having more sheen. I always keep it in my bag while travelling also it can transform your work look to party look when you have to carry only 1-2 makeup tools.

RECOMMENDED for girls who just want to start using bronzer or if you want something compact easy to apply easy to carry.

NEW L’OREAL DUO BRONZER, COLOR RICHE LE SMOKEY EYE PENCILS & FALSE SUPERSTAR MASCARA REVIEW SWATCHES

02:47:00

Hello angels,

Here comes another weekend in month of August. As I was least expecting for any new product launch this month I found L’Oreal has already come up with 3 NEW products. so I got all of them to review them first.

I got duo powder bronzer in 120 harmony brunette shade, 2 Color Riche Eye Pencils in Stormy Sea and Brown Fusion and most exciting product was False lash Superstar mascara. I love L’Oreal mascaras I alwaYs have good experience with their products. I also like using mascaras and so I cant wait to review it.

This is a False Lash Superstar mascara with silver and black packaging. It’s a double end mascara so you will find step1 and step 2 to get false lash effect.

So this double tube end mascara has one side white primer with straight brush and bristles on the other end you will find black mascara with curved brush. So false lash mascara not only claims to give volume but also length. You have to first coat your lashes with the primer for thickening and them with mascara for length and curving your lash. This mascara are totally waterproof so you have to take extra effort to remove them.

PRIMER

MASCARA

Now this mascara stays for whole day without smudging or flaking or fading. Also after application the lashes don’t feel hard or stiff they are soft.The primer for me helps to separate the lashes and adding some volume but doesn’t give a complete false effect after putting a coat of mascara it helps in lengthening and seprating the lashes.This mascara has curved brush which clings to lashes from bottom to tip making it individual and dark. It does a great job of lengthening and giving some volume to your lashes. Surely it s a good mascara making a difference to your natural lashes but I was expecting a bit more to it. My concern is only of expecting it to give me dramatic false lashes effect. Overall recommend you can add this mascara to your vanity at affordable price. I would rate this product A.

Now I will be reviewing Color Riche Le Smokey Eye Pencils. They have 6-7 shades all are amazingly beautiful and will look gorgeous on many skin tones. I picked up two STORMY SEA AND BROWN FUSION. Brown fusion is a dark chocolaty brown eye pencil it has a smudger on one end. You need to sharpen it every time you use. This pencils are extremely soft smooth and glides so easily on upper as well as lower lash line. The formula is absolutely spot on. You can use them on your water line without hurting your eyes. It doesn’t need dragging or pulling. They are water proof pencil but takes time to set. As there is a smudger you can create smokey eyes with all of this pencils. I usually loves smudging them at lower lash line it gives a softer look to eyes. Both the shades are my absolute favorite. Stormy sea is a smoked greyish blue shade. I can use them on daily basis. Only I am worried is that I don’t end up with the product so soon. As its soft in texture you need to sharpen it carefully without getting much wasted. This are must have pencils. They have fairly good lasting power but if you have oily lids you need to use a primer first. They are super pigmented and give you intense smokey eyes. Doesn’t flake or get dry it doesn’t irritate my eyes when applied on waterline.

Overall I loved using this pencils they glide soft and smoothly perfect formula and pigmentation … looking forward to get some more shades..

ESTEE LAUDER PURE COLOR ENVY LIQUID POTION & ESTEE LAUDER DOUBLE WEAR FOUNDATION REVIEW

14:40:00

Hello angels,

Once in a while we all need some luxurious makeup. Where we always talk about drugstore liquid lipsticks we cant forget about the amazing luxurious brand. If you love soft creamy and not so matte liquid lipstick which give a complete luxurious feel with full of pigment then you have to count on Estee Lauder Pure color envy liquid potion as one of the best.

Lets talk more about this product. This product is housed in their classic blue and gold packaging where you can see a dual side applicator. I loved the applicator which gives a precise application to the contour of lips. They have 16 high intensity shades which have some lovely red, nudes, pinks and of course plums. They are so so super pigmented I couldn't have asked for more. They are infused with oils so they apply smoothly on lips. It has a non drying formula so your lips remain moisturised for long time. Even if your lips are dry it will help hydrate them. They have amazing satin to matte finish.

It turns to matte in few seconds after application. I loved the fact that they are not powdery mattes and give luxurious creamy feel to lips. This lipsticks have really bold and beautiful shades. The only problem I had here was its lasting power. As it claims of lasting for 8 hrs It barely stayed on my lips for 3-4 hrs after meals. It fades away gradually from center of lips. This product does transfer on coffee mugs. They also are tested on animals and have a very sweet fragrance to it which doesn’t last either. I was very comfortable wearing this lipstick as they don’t bleed, smudge and also the texture feels light on lips. It has got some beneficial plant oils and waxes. I have got a shade no. 250 QUIET RIOT which is a warm pink having red tones. It s a warm shade which doesn’t look to bold or bright but can go on many skin tones especially if you are having warmer tones. This one is must to try.

Overall recommended if staying power and fragrance doesn’t bother you much and if you are looking for lipsticks having softer matte finish this could be a good choice. Also here you don’t need a lip pencil because the applicator already gives sculpted look to your lips. The variety of shades is also great. Try them and let me know in comment down below...

Along with this I also got Estee Lauder double wear foundation in RATTAN 2W2 shade. Its one of the best foundation I have ever tried. It comes in thick glass bottle with a golden cap. It doesn't contain any pump to dispense the product. The consistency is neither so thick or liquid. This is a foundation which gives complete coverage and its a perfect choice for oily to combination skin. It covers acne, marks and blemishes. Its a buildable medium to high coverage foundation. It stays on so well without creasing or flaking. You can wear this foundation without touch ups for 9 hrs. It gives a semi matte finish which is great for combination skin. Also normal to dry skin can wear this foundation with a good moisturiser beneath. The only down point is that it doesn't have pump so you may have to take foundation on your hand directly from bottle and you have no control over the quantity. Its pretty expensive for 30 ml but i have heard a lot about it and when I tried I found it totally worth it. It also has spf 10 so its a good foundation for photographs. Also great for bridals as it can stay for long without smudging and gives a flawless complexion. This shade is little bit warmer to my tone but I am okay with it. OVERALL RECOMMENDED for oily to combination skin it doesn't smudge on T zone like most of the foundations. Also it doesn't give cakey or flat look, it feels light and comfortable to wear for whole day.
