If you can handle the smell, this is the one to get!
This lipbalm is the only thing that beats the lipbutters from "The Body Shop", this does every thing dry lips needs. It's not sticky or greasy on the lips. It's very light weight, and does a good job keeping the lips moisturized for several hours. The scent is another thing. It's very special, and seems herbal or something. It is not a nice scent in anyway, not clinical or something, well it's impossible to describe, but if you can get passed the smell, this is overall a high quality product, and you really get what you are paying for. The smell doesn't bother me, so I will gladly repurchase this. I will recommend this to anybody who cares for their lip condition, because it fits all skin types. Lovely product, this is a true keeper. <3
Better than most other pen-liners
Some times products aren't worth their price, that has been my experience with some higher end products. This is way cheaper than any of the Milani and Maybelline pen-liners, and actually much better. The last Milani liner I had dried out in a month with only a few uses :/ My first pen-liner from Maybelline lasted me nearly a half year, but the pigmentation was bad. Now I just got the new pen-liner MasterPrecise, because my Jordana Pen-liner has gotten a bit dry, after everyday use for around 5 months. I already miss using the FabuLiner, it's soo good, and so black, and amazingly long wearing. I'll get another one soon, because the Maybelline MasterPrecise isn't nearly as good as the FabuLiner. I'll recommend this for all, because of the price, quality and how easy it is to use :)
3 dollars! - Really?
This is really a good product for the price. The quality of this product is the most amazing, i have ever seen in a 3-dollar product. I have not tried a product which could battle this one. I love how this compact houses 4 colors you can swirl together, or use seperately. Personally the two bottom shades i swirl together for all over bronze. the top-right shade is for contour, and it fits my light skin perfectly, even though it's that dark, because it's so blendable. The top-left shade i mainly use for my brow-highlight (so natural looking using matte highlighting for brows) -or swirled together with the bottom-left shade for a tan-ish blush. I have already repurchased this twice. The packedging is nothing fancy, but doesn't seem cheap either. The mirror is huge, that says a lot. Doesn't get any better than this ! Need of a matte bronzer ? -try this, it will suit the palest skin tones, and even the darker tones ! Looooove ! <3 <3 <3
For the price, it doesn't get any better than this !
I have 4 of these, and taupe is the perfect contour on me, not to grey- not to brown/bronze. The other 3 is Amber, a matte dark pinky peach,-cinnamon, a strong matte orange, in the right amount really beautiful, an so pigmented.- Red -a blue/pinky-toned red, matte and insanely pigmented, a small amount gives the most natural flush of red to the cheeks. undetectable on the skin. In my opinion Amber and red is the most wearable shades for all skintones. Cinnamon is amazing if you use it right. And Taupe is the fool-proof contour. the only thing is the packedging, it could be better, but for the price, the product itself is awesome, and i'm very satisfied. I recommend these to anyone who ask me.
WOW, high-end foundations are actually worth the money, or at least this one is !
So, this is quite expensive in Denmark, where i live. I always need long lasting and matte foundations ! I normally i mix a matte foundation with a long wearing foundation, that seems to be my best soution, for my skintype accompanied with the danish weather always rainy or really warm/and rainy in the summer. But with this, i only need this one. It's stays matte, after 5-6 hrs of wear, the shine can shine through a bit, but because it really clings to the skin, i can dap the grease of, without wiping of coverage- and then the foundation is matte again, and seems fresh and just applied, with out reapplying at all! - say what ? at can wear of, if you really tug at your skin, but still it doesn't really budge before you take it of, and i love that about it. You don't really need to set it with a powder, but if your skin is REALLY oily, it might be a good idea. it has medium coverage, but its easy to sheer it out if you want, and also easy to build up if you like ! This is my new HG foundation for sure. I apply this with a flat-top facebrush/kabuki, and it looks amazingly natural ! it feels like your own skin while wearing this!- because its so light weight, but still really good coverage, and the colour fits me perfectly! a little bit goes a long way, i've had this for nearly a week, and i'm not done with the tester at all. i'd really love to repurchase it again and again!
summerglow foundation, smells amazing!
At the moment, this is my go-to foundation for spring and summer, this really is weightless, and gives you a semi-matte finish, with a bit of natural glow. It has light to medium coverage, but really buildable. I use a primer with this one, to make it last longer. Also this fits my skintone so well, and looks so naturally flawless. the scent is fresh and sweet, but nothing overwhelming. this doesn't clog pores or anything. Since i included this in my daily routine, my skin looks healthyer and more pure. I have less breakouts and blackheads. and it does actually work with my oily skin, even though i expected the worst from this. i highly recommend this :)
OMG! shocked !
i just got this today. i have for long time wanted to try out a matte blusher, so i decided to go for a cheap one, in case it wasn't for me. The Heather Silk might just have a little hint of shimmer in the pan, but on my face there's no shimmer what so ever. This pink is true Barbie-ish, but gives an amazing natural flush on my fair-skintone... i am in love with this, and for spring i can't pick a better color, this is -hands down- amazing ! the cheapest matte blusher i could find, and OMG the pigmentation ! - only dip the tip of your brush ever so gently, because this little awesome guy is soooo sooo sooo pigmented, and gives true color pay-off... having this in my makeup-bag i don't need any high-end cheekproduct, because it doesn't get any better than this one ! i really recommend trying this out ! <3 lots of love, xo xo EmmaLou
sooo pigmentated, i love it..
So the compact is very sleek, and doesn't seem cheap. There's a big mirror, and who doesn't love that ? I got the shade "sunrise in Bali" wich is mostly matte on the skin, but in the pan, you can se a hint of golden shimmer. The blush, not kidding, it's a dupe for Nars Orgasme. It has the prettiest golden pink, with a gorgous glow... if you dont like shimmer, it's very easy to blend of your skin, and then you're left with a goddess-like glow. i'm in love with the blush side. And the pan is actually big enough to get your brush into the color you want, without hitting the color and the other side.. so gooood for the money.. I Really recommend this one. Not to forget. i have fair skin, but i think that this shade will match most skin tones :) Lots of love, EmmaLou <3
perfect color ffor fair-skinned ;)
So when i got this at first, i thought it was way too shimmery, but now i use it on daily-basis, and blending it really good takes alot of the shimmer, and leaves you with that pretty glow we all love. The color is very natural, it makes you skin just a hint darker and a bit more golden, but it's very buildable, so if you want to go bronzy-mama, you can do that to. An average good bronzer, that will fit most skintypes. if you have darker skin, ther'e shades that will fit that to.
interesting formula, i like it !
so, doing my eyeshadow i usually start with concealing my eyelids, this step also works as a primer. then the eyeshadow, next up curling my lashes, and then liner and mascara. I have to say, putting this on the lid is hard using your fingers. this little friend clings to the skin really bad, but that also means that, it holds a looooong time on the eyelids. using a brush, its very easy to blend it on the lid, i just have to get some more of these..
