Beauty Product Reviews

Heartbreaking.

I absolutely love this foundation, but it just doesn't come light enough. I have to mix my NC15 with my Illamasqua Rich Liquid in RF105 to get the perfect shade. I would probably be addicted to this stuff had I been able to purchase the perfect shade.

Too pricey!

I absolutely loved this pencil, if i could wear it on my lips every single day, then i would. It glided on perfectly, didn't smudge, didn't feather. The longevity of the product amazed me, as well as the colour. The colour matched my own lip colour perfectly, and really helped me define my lips, as I don't suit colour all that well. I was so excited to get the product for myself, as a friend had let me put it on as she was working on me for a recent gig i done. The only thing that has thrown any chances of me buying this product out of the window is the price. The only thing that I pay over £15 for is my Illamasqua Rich Liquid, MAC Studio Fix Foundation, or my Real Techniques brushes. I would never pay that amount for 1 pencil, being a student, i can barely afford food, but even with a full time job, and if i was well off, i still wouldn't pay that amount. It's disheartening really, as the product was heavenly.

I personally love the product, i have combination skin and find it hard to find something that doesn't look too dry or too oily on my skin. This is a perfect BB cream, and i have it in the lightest shade. At £4, it is amazing value, although i would pay up to £10 if this product just had more in it. I don't often buy my makeup, so i would love it to last a little longer. As a BB cream, it's a lot thinner than my previous foundation (Illamasqua rich liquid & Nivea Moisturizer), i find that i need to apple a little concealer to breakouts to completely hide them. Overall, i love the dewy finish it leaves to my skin, as i've never had that before. Only problem is the amount in the bottle.
