Mac Mineralize Skinfinish Natural




Review..



 
a face powder, a mineral foundation, good coverage, natural smooth finish “not powdery or cacky”

when I heard about this product on from many beauty bloggers, I decided to go and get it..my shade is Medium..I feel it's a bit darker than my skin but when I put it on blend it it looks perfect..

it had a very good coverage, you can use it on its own as a foundation..i have oily skin and I’m very please with it because it sets my foundation, I can used it to touch up during the day and it doesn't give me the powdery look..i use a kabuki brush for application..the brushes I enjoy are the Samantha Chapman Real Techniques kabuki brush and the elf kabuki brush..

I feel that this product is a must in your makeup collection..i always recommended to my friends and they love it after they try it..

Check out Lisasz09 video review

it's very much loved as you can see :)

Essence Cosmetics Review




essence Review

essence cosmetics



one of my favorite drug store brand, made in Germany, cruelty free, very affordable and budget friendly

unfortunately currently they do not have an online store. but
you can find essence products in many European countries, for example Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Ireland, Spain, Croatia, Italy, Switzerland, Austria also i found it in south Africa and united Arab emirates at few selected stores..you can now also shop online from ultah online store, you will not find everything but they do curry a wide variety


essence do not test on animal..
on their web page they "assure that cosnova neither conducts testing on animals, nor commissions it to any third parties – not in Germany or anywhere else in the world. we strongly disapprove of testing on animals for cosmetics products."


essence lipsticks
from left to right..Red Carpet, All About Cupcake, Sparkling Miracle, Fairytale, Prom Night


 
I love extreme Mascara..I love it, ultra black and extreme volume

I have a collection of their products from blushes to lip gloss to mascaras and many other stuff as they have a full range of make up the line is still expanding and everyday you find new blogger talking about essence and its all true and honest opinion because essence do not send free sample and products to bloggers for reviews which is what they wrote on their page
I've been using their products for 2 years now and I love most of what I've tried..

some of the hits

-I love extreme Mascara
gives me volume, make my eyelashes full and thick I get many compliments every time I wear it
-lipsticks (red carpet-fairytale-all about cupcake-sparkling miracle)
very moisturizing, soft sheer colors, buildable, glossy finish
-cover stick (matt beige)
blendable, creamy medium to full coverage
-blush (10 adorable- 20 fashionista)
silky, look natural
-brushes (smokey eye brush- gel eyeliner brush)
soft, doesn't shed,

Few of the the misses

- lip gloss XXXL shine (13 Rock On)
odd color, you can feel the glitter on the lips
-eyeshadow sparkling effect (03 starlight)
the shimmer is only a spray finish on top of the eyeshadow, the color itself is a light grey, lots fallout
- l love stage eyeshadow base
doesn't prevent creasing or enhance your eyeshadow color
