Manhattan Lip Gloss And Blush | Review & Swatches

Hi, girls! Summer is already over, but I so want to keep some warm memories about those hot days. So I decided, that will use just bright cosmetics in warm shades and shimmering texture. Few days ago I owned High Shine lip gloss and Powder Rouge Tender Touch blush both products by Manhattan Cosmetics. 

Powder Rouge Tender Touch

3,50 € 

So the first product I bought was Powder Rouge Tender Touch. It comes in transparent case and with a little brush to apply this blush. Sure, I will not use the brush to apply it, but it has very good quality - soft and dense. I think that brush, was made from natural hair. Powder Rouge is available in four different colors - from warm pinkish to light chocolate shade. My color is 53 N 'fresh peach', which includes many glitter and have pleasant texture. Powder Rouge is not matte, but very shiny. It lasts on my face almost all day long, but, sure, it also depends on the foundation. By the way, this blush includes vitamin E, which is nourishing your skin during the whole day.

High Shine lip gloss

5,95 € / 5 ml

The second product, which attracted my eye was High Shine lip gloss. To tell the truth, I`m not a big fan of this lip gloss. It has very watery consistency and almost totally transparent. There are 13 shades in High Shine collection, hope other colors are more nice.  But as a moisturizer this lip gloss works very good.

Thank you, girls, for taking time to read my blog. If you liked it, stay with me for more interesting posts. See you later ;)

Lots of love,

Essence Colour Arts Pigments | Review & Swatches

Bonsoir, dear girls! First time a saw this Pigments by Essence in a little review about on youtube and I became obsessed by it. I wanted to try them sooo much! On this week I finally bought three colors to try.

So, I have three shades : 02 - smell the caramel, 11 - cotton candy and 14 - strawberry smoothie. They are very pigmented and includes so many glitter - very bright and beautiful. I want to do a tutorial, using these gorgeous pigments later. Each bottle has a silicone flap under the plastic cover, to save pigments from spilling (just cotton candy doesn't have, there was a sticker inside.) Covers are very tight, so you can be sure that other cosmetics in your make up bag will stay clean. 

Essence Pigments are available in 23 pretty colors. The main idea of Color Arts pigments is the variations of usage. You can mix the shades together and create your new shades. You can use pigments as high lighter or bronzer. Or you can even mix them with clear nail polish and create exclusive nail lacquer! Just use your imagination:)

Colors are very beautiful and bright, but they demands an eyeshadow base or any other base as pencil, to make them look even more bright and last longer. For example, texture of cotton candy consist almost just from glitter, so to set it on the skin you need a very good base or it will have many fall outs.

I liked these pigments by Essence so much, that I even decided to use them for my wedding make up. It is hard to don`t like these cute bottles :) Thanks, to read my post, I hope you like it. Talk to you very soon, girls.

Lots of love,

Pro Palette 120 Colors # 3 | Review & Swatches

Hey, ladies! I know that must be everyone who are in love with makeup and beauty stuff already purchased this pro palette, but I love it so much and want to share my thoughts with you. This palette is a replica of famous BH 120 Color Eyeshadow Palette 3rd Edition, it is totally the same, but costs a little less:) I hope someone will found this post useful and interesting.

I purchased this palette already few years ago and it really disappointed me. Most of the colors in that pro palette #2 were poor pigmented and even my NYX primer didn't help eye shadows to last longer and be more bright. There was many green shades, which I never even touched and many bright pink, almost of the same shade, which I also didn't use frequently. But when I saw this eye shadow palette I really fell in love with 60 beautiful smokey shades, which it includes - grey, greyish purple, smoky lavender, milky brown shades. I knew that all of these colors I will use all the time. Sure it also has some not usable shades, but I like to do experiments. This eye shadows palette will be very useful for girls, who are just trying to find their style and color match. 

So my new 120 pro palette edition #3 was much better than a previous one. All colors are very pigmented and smooth, they have a pleasant silky texture. Most of the shadows are matte, but some has a shimmer. It was a hard task to do a swatches of all 120 colors of this palette, but I did few to show how pigmented are the colors. These swatches I made without any eye shadow base. If someone of you are interested I`ll do more swatches for you, girls:) I think the same you can easily  find on amazon or ebay.

Hope you liked my review, I already did few makeup  tutorials and will do many in the future, using my pro palette. Tell me in comments if you have this or different similar palette and your opinion about it. Thanks for your visit. See you very soon again, bye bye!

Lots of love,

Liz

Lipsticks by Essence | Review & Swatches

Happy Monday, dear ladies how are you today? My Essence obsession continues and today I will tell you about two amazing lipsticks by Essence. For a very long time I wanted to try these lipsticks and, finally, I purchased two. I can`t say that I`m a great fan of lipsticks, but these two are simply amazing. 

Essence lipsticks has 16 different colors and shades of this lipstick (matte and shimmering). . My shades are #53 - all about cupcake and #52 - in the nude. The nude one is more transparent, but the cupcake is more pigmented. Colors, which I own, don`t have any shimmer, but the finish look is creamy. The nude one is semi - transparent, but the cupcake is more pigmented. And  these two colors are perfect for every day wearing. To tell the truth, these lipsticks by Essence are more like a caring lip balm,  than a lipstick, because they moisturize my lips so good. They last for about 3-4 hours and both smell like sweets, very very tasty. It is extremely comfortable to wear these lipsticks. 

Girls, did you ever try lipsticks by Essence? What can you say about them? I highly recommend Essence products for everyone! It was so nice to talk to you again, lovelies. Stay with me if you liked my blog. I`ll see you again very soon, kisses!

     

Lots of love,

Isabelle Dupont Nail Polishes | Review

Hi, my dear ladies! How did you spend your week? I hope you had a good time. So many things have been changed in my life at this week. I moved to Brazil and started to live with my fiance. And today I will finally do a review for these gorgeous nail polishes by Isabelle Dupont. I already used them for some time and now can give you my honest opinion. 

So I bought two shades of Isabelle Dupont nail polishes - the bright pink № 418 and white № 203. The pink one is from Color Me Up line. This color is very bright and shiny. Formula of nail polish makes the nail plate very smooth and even.Both nail polishes dry out very quickly and have comfortable brushes. They are kind thin, so it is easy to cover side parts of nail plate with lacquer.

The white one is a nail lacquer, which looks more like an enamel. I think it is perfect for french manicure. It is absolutely pure white color, doesn't have any extra shade in it. The pink one is extremely bright and attractive. Both colors last very long, but they need to be applied in two layers to be shiny and have a full coverage. I`m very impressed by Isabelle Dupont nail polishes and will try other products for sure. Thanks for staying with me, ladies. I will talk to you very soon again! Bye, bye!

Lots of love,

Liz

Pupa Silk Touch Compact Powder in Gold | Review & Swatches

Hey, beauties. Just few days ago I was in my closest drugstore and trapped on something super cute and adorable. I couldn't pass through this Pupa powder, it was in amazing golden packaging, and that`s why we love our products, isn't it? I already owned Baked powder by Pupa, and I love it so I decided to try regular one, especially that it was not expensive, about 12 $.

So, this compact powder comes in a very gorgeous golden matte case. It is kind flat and very comfortable in usage. The cover is very firm, so will not open accidentally. Sponge, as always, very very bad, but who use it nowadays. Silk Touch powder, is really silky on touch, as Pupa promised, it layers on the skin very smooth and formula is very light. The only thing that didn't match with me is the color. I have a very light skin tone and this Pupa powder failed with it, even though I owned the lightest shade # 01 - light beige. So it is kind dark for me, but I still love it. Hope to get some tan to use it more often.

Girls, who have beautiful caramel skin, I very recommend for all of yo to try it out, just be sure about the tone, that you will choose. If someone already tried this Silk Touch powder, please, let me know your opinion about it, and especially about the color matching. Thanks, for the visit, have a wonderful day!

Lots of love,

Liz

Porcelain Doll Lips | Ombré Lips Tutorial

Good morning, girls. How are things? I saw so many beautiful pictures of baby doll`s lips on Pinterest and other sites. This trend is a beauty tip by our Chinese and Japanese beauties. I couldn't hold myself to try recreate this beautiful ombre lips. Ombre effect make them look so cute and neat, like a real doll`s lips. I hope you will like my tutorial.

Before to start I exfoliated the skin on my lips, to make them soft and smooth. Then I primed them with face powder, to hide natural colour of my lips and make my lipstick stay longer. The next step is a pink lipstick. I started to put it from the middle of my lower lips and filled them up, avoiding corners of my lips. After I started to mix the transition, using flat lipstick brush. You can also use your finger, as you prefer. And o finish I used regular lip balm, I put it with my finger to don`t ruing my ombre transition. That is how I made my ombre lips.

Let me know in a comments down below, if you liked this ombre lips. And don`t forget to follow my blog for more tutorials. Thanks, ladies, for reading my blog and I wish a good day:) See you very soon!

Lots of love,

Liz

Monthly Favorites | September

Ola, pretties! I don`t believe that September flew away already. I was hoping that autumn would be warm, but I literally feel the breath of the winter already. But my summer days are still forward, because I`m going to move in a very warm place very very soon. Any way, here is the list of my September Favorites. Enjoy:)

Essence Lipstick - all about cupcake

It was a love from the first sign. Color, texture, scent - this lipstick is a perfection. I really enjoy to use it. I think color fits with autumn time and caring formula of Essence lipstick moisturize my lips during the cold time. Very soon I will post a detail review of this lipstick, so don`t miss it.

Golden Rose Rich Color

Do you believe in one coat full coverage? I do! It really works, how they promise on the bottle. Golden Rose Rich Color is so pigmented and so bright. You don`t need more to put million coats and wait them to dry out. This nail polish dries out almost immediately. The brush has maxi size, to cover all your nail plate from the first swipe. Adorable!

One layer

Puma Perfume Animagical Women Edt

I think this fragrance was made for autumn. It has some fruity, woody and spicy notes in the scent. It is very sweet, so maybe, not everyone would enjoy it, but I like and always carry in my bag. One more thing I like about it is a small and comfortable size.

Powder Brush by Ebelin

In my previous list of Monthly Favorites I was talking about Ebelin Foundation brush. I liked the quality and decided to try one more brush by Ebelin. This powder brush has a very big and comfortable holder and very soft, natural hairs (i think it is goat`s hair). Domed shape of Ebelin brush is perfect to put powder on the skin.

MaxFactor Clump Defy by False Lash Effect

And the last products in my September Favorites list is my new favorite mascara by Max Factor Clump Defy. If you need perfect separation and curly lashes you should definitely try it. You can look detail review and demonstration here.

Dears, thanks for reading me, that was my little September Favorites list. If you like my blog become my constant reader for more interesting posts. And what have you been loving lately?

Lots of love,
