MAC Studio Face And Body Foundation.

Today, I’m going to talk about a product that is totally essential for an everyday makeup look and I’m pretty sure you have guessed it right and yes, of course, it is foundation. Plus, as we are residing in winter cold months, we can’t rely on just tinted moisturisers or BB cream alone just like in summer and for winter months, an ideal base needs to give a perfect coverage and a good foundation alone can give a quintessential answer to this query and my latest find on this category is MAC Studio Face And Body Foundation and so, let me get straight into its exquisite features which standout as a monopoly from its peer competitors and so, stay tuned!

First of all, the product is from MAC and so, we always have some positive expectations about their products as they deliver high quality makeup without a fail and this product is not in exception either as it works brilliantly well and ticks all the boxes of formulation, texture, consistency, application, coverage and many more.

MAC always keeps their packaging nice and simple and it comes along with a squeezable bottle with a pointed hole to the top where the formula is easy to dispense and so, you can have a control on how much to dispense for each use and the bottle is covered up by a sturdy black top and overall, a very effective packaging.

Formulation is the key to any foundation and Mac has literally nailed it with their amazing light weight formula which is very comfortable to use and the fluid consistency is ideal to work along with either beauty blender or foundation brush and furthermore, what makes this product to be even more special is, it comes along with added emollients which brings out a perfect moisturisation while you wear. Moreover, it gives a low to medium coverage which brings in its versatility as an everyday use and so, if you are looking for a natural and sheer finish look, then this is the perfect choice for you. Also, it is available in 13 shades which gives you a good selection of fair, medium to dark skin. Besides, the formula also promises a long-lasting staying power and ideal to use on all kinds of skin types and what else could you ask for, isn’t it? So, all-in-all, it gives a perfect, complete, non-cake-y foundation and satin finish look.

Review: IsaDora Eye Shadow Quartet

Is it fair enough to have too many eye shadow palettes? If you ask me, I would say, it is a girl’s dream albeit and my heart always starts pounding when I see those luscious, eye-catching hues and if you have followed me for a while, then you might have known that I’m always on a hunt for new brands that are quality wise, in par with high end and money wise, budget friendly at the same time and viola! I hit the target this time as I bumped onto an amazing Swedish brand, IsaDora. So, stay tuned to see what’s in-store for?

Truly speaking, I’m so impressed with the amazing quality of the product as they come as fragrance free that are also clinically tested but not on animals and so, that is a good start and then, their products are designed in such a way that is suitable to use for sensitive eyes and sensitive skin and isn’t it amazing? Most of all, I love their premium quality at a very affordable price tag.

Packaging of this quartet looks stunningly sleek with black canvas and embossed with a silver note of brand name to the middle right and when you tend to open, it comes along with a compact mirror to the top and a quad eye shadow palette to the base and so, it is extremely travel friendly as the clip on lock is best served on the go with complete protection of mess free eye shadow.

Formula is simply amazing and I have tried 02 Pink Dream and 01 Dragonfly and the texture is creamy and silky in touch and it promises to give a long-lasting finish that is up to 12 hours provided if you have applied the quintessential eye shadow base. Then, moving along to its intensity, it is well pigmented and pays off really well and the depth of staying power  is also good. Besides, if you are looking to build on further with eye makeup look, then you can blend in as per desired.

Here comes the best part as it talks more kind of beauty, science and technology which I’m always curious about as I really love the innovative technicality each brand uses in so that they could use their product to be unique rest among the others and IsaDora is not in exception either as they use Liquid Powder Technology in their eye shadow which brings in an unbelievable coverage and also, makes the flawless finish every time you use.

1. Start the procedure with a well washed and clean eyes.
2. Apply a coat of eye shadow base as it acts as a base for the whole eye makeup look.
3. I always fan around the biscuit like beige shade to the crease area so that catches the light swiftly.
4. I always play around with the hues by starting the lightest colour to the inner eyelid area and then, apply the desired base colour to the middle area and finishing off sensibly with a darker shade to the outer corner of the area.
5. Then, you can build up as per required.

• Exclusive formula
• Liquid powder technology
• Love the packaging of palette
• 14 variations of palette range
• Creamy in texture
• Silky soft finish
• Long lasting staying power
• Well pigmented
• Intense hue look
• Easy to use and blends flawlessly
• Fragrance free
• Clinically tested but not on animals
• Suitable to use for sensitive skin
• Ideal to use for sensitive eyes
• Travel friendly
• Very affordable
• Amazing quality

Review:Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil.

 

Are you a great fan of eye pencils? And, to be honest,  I’m not as good as Kim Kardashian who uses literally 3 different kinds of eyeliner every single day to finish an eye makeup look that needs so much patience and effort – really commendable, isn’t it? But still, I love my go-to eye makeup look and also, always on a hunt to try some good finds here and there. Moreover, as you might have guessed, yes, today I will be guiding through an eye product from an amazing brand, which is none-other-than, Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil that is suitable to wear on all occasions. So, stay tuned girls!!!

These versatile, travel-friendly, waterproof eye pencils are easy to use and as the name says, it literally glides onto your eyes with a creamy texture and we all know, when it comes to eye pencils, black and brown shades are quiet wearable neutrals but instead, this stunning set consists of other favourites like silvery white, metallic copper and edgy deep brown. Plus, on the other hand with budge free consistency of the formula is so easy to apply just on its own or some blend actions as well.

It’s packaging comes along with a silvery finished top and bottom and the rest explains the actual colour of the pencil and so, it is clearly visible on what to choose and for which occasion to wear. Plus, the silver coated calligraphic finish of name and brand details brings in the exclusive note of high-end detail.

 

Now, let’s talk about technology that too in terms of beauty. So, for me, if I’m using a high-end product, I always look for the special ingredients that makes it as a wise buy and I should say, UD has never left a stone unturned as each 24/7 glide-on eye pencils are packed with 50% moisturising ingredients that are suspended by a water proof formula and doesn’t it sound amazing? And, here comes one more reason to use these highly innovative pencils as they are vegan friendly – yes girls, you’ve heard it right. To finish off, just like icing on the cake, these pencils are nourishingly packed with cottonseed oil, jojoba oil and Vitamin E. Well, what more can you ask for, isn’t it?

Whether it is a winged eyeliner or an ever classic smokey eye effect, eye pencils are a must-have staple as you can literally line either right above the upper lashes are bring some drama on the lower lash line and whatever it may be, these pencils gives you an assurance of smoothly defined steaks of lines. Now, for more innovative approach – why not try the current trending graphic eyeliner? And, one great example is pictured below.

• Extremely pigmented
• Creamy texture
• Huge range of hue selection
• Long lasting and promising 24/7 finish
• Glides on easily
• Vegan friendly
• Ideal for travel
• Extremely moisturising
• Filled with richness of essential oils
• Budge free
• Easy to blend
• Waterproof formula
• Metallic finish

Best Of Beauty 2016 – Part 2.

First of all, wishing you all a very wonderful new year and just like me, I hope you had the best holiday ever. What a remarkable year was 2016! So many political happenings and new trends all around the world and I hope the same in 2017 too. Well, if you have missed my previous post, then you could always check out my Best Of Beauty 2016 – Part 1 right here where it covers all the beat beauties of 2016 excluding makeup and so, this post is fully dedicated to just makeup alone as there are so many cult favourites which I always wanted to share along with you. So, stay tuned!

I should say 2016 was the year of Estee Lauder as I have tried so many makeup products from them and every new product that I use, it always surprises me and one among them is my Travel friendly Luxury Eyeshadow Palette which I have used all throughout the Spring as their neutral tones are ideal to use on a no-makeup makeup look and their compact set is ideal as a versatile travel staple.

One more amazing find from Estee Lauder is their Ingenious Colour Palette which represents as a cult beauty from inside and out and one can’t ignore their stunning looking gold packaging and an immaculate amount of colour pigmentation.

People say that first impression is the best impression and it is 100% right as Eyeko brand brings in a commendable quality all the time I use and having used their Black Magic Mascara from 2015, I have decided to add one more product from their pipeline and one sumptuous product is Eyeko Skinny Liquid Eyeliner .

I have heard so many good reviews about millions of mascaras and one that is bejewelled in look and works exponentially well is my all time favourite Lancome Grandiose Mascara and Viola! Who can say no to this! It surely looks like a little gem in your beauty wardrobe.

It is not always a high-end product embarks the situation but this time, Collection Fast Stroke Liquid Eyeliner breaks the ice as its quality is impeccably amazing and it is one of my Best Buys Under £5. You could able to see their carbon black finish on the above picture.

If you love smokey eye, then you must try this product as it makes smokey eye look at its ease and Rodial Smokey eye pen is yet another product that I have tried last year.

By the way, who wouldn’t like the real coverage of face makeup look, isn’t it? And, having used so many drugstore foundations for years, I was so intrigued to try on high-end foundation and as you expected, I’ve literally I landed onto a Trip to MAC counter and you could able to catch up with its full story right here.

BB cream is a mandatory staple for Spring and Estee Lauder Double Wear BB Cream solves all the problems of coverage and brings in a natural glow instantly onto your face.

Nyx Color Correcting Concealer is a wonderful product that is perfect to use for all kinds of ages and skin and believe it or not, it works wonders.

I love this TBS Cuban Watermelon Blush as it brings in a subtle sheen to my cheeks instantly and you know, winter is the season of blushes and so, having one of them is a must-have staple right now.

I totally agree that 2016 was the year of lips as there were so many new products for lips on the market and me not in exception either as I have tried so many varieties of them and one among the best is Estee Lauder High Gloss which is quintessential to wear on its own or just above the lipstick.

Another interesting glossy lip colour is Lancome Lip Lover and it brings in the tint of rosy pink and glossy finish at the same time.

There is no way to finish a lip product without this and NYX soft matte lip cream  is the best of pocket friendly and skin friendly lip creams and their quality is totally amazing.

Another lip cream that I tried was Sleek Matte Me Lip Cream and the hue looks stunning on the lips.

Recently, I’m so addicted to rose gold and this Retro Red from Kate Moss 15th Anniversary Collection is the best release among all of her collections and I’m using it non-stop ever since I have bought it.
