I have some exciting and
relatively new products for this month`s favorite. This is rare for me;
typically, I always end up using or loving older products from my collection
with just one or two new staff. I am well aware that this is almost mid-June
but my parents are here with me and I am trying to spend as much time as I can
with them, obviously blogging has taken a backseat. No regret though!
Diorskin Nude Air Luminizer in 001 and 003: First- it is luxury
product and for me it was an indulgent purchase! But the best thing about this
is that I love the formula! I absolutely adore the shades as well, I love how
easy it is to layer and blend! Love the wet glossy look it gives me and I enjoy
how long it stays on me. Overall a very well performing luxury product that
makes me feel happy.
Marc Jacobs Omega Coconut Bronzer in TanTastic: Oh, another luxury purchase! I have shared here my exhaustive
story on how I ended up buying this. You can also see detailed review and
swatches! I have said before, I can make the shade work but it is not
necessarily the best on my skin tone. I am really loving the formula; the smell
is unnecessary but a nice-feel good detail! The powder is very soft, easy to
pick up and apply. It blends beautifully. It is quite buildable which is a very
good quality in a bronzer. And, I absolutely adore the white packaging.
Colourpop Pressed Shadows in Come and Get it & High Strung: I rarely use Colourpop Super Shock shadows, But I do really LOVE
them. When they come out with pressed eyeshadows I did not pay attention! These
past few weeks, they were running a promotion of 3 eyeshadows @ 10$ and I
picked up three shades. I got High Strung, Come and Get It & Sandbar.
I wanted to get colors that
are satin or shimmer but is appropriate and fast for a no- fuss `wear to work`
look. These two shades fit the bill perfectly and I actually find them to be
interesting. I knew for sure that these will be good but I did not expect to
fall in love with them. I have used both shades with or without primer and both
times they perform beautifully. I can just use my fingertips to apply this on
the lid and if I don’t have time I can skip using a crease shade. They still
remain wearable. I actually have been wearing just `Come and Get It` on the lid
alone with a lot of mascara. It is an intense duo chrome of peach and gold. I
prefer this just a little bit more than `High Strung`.
Lakme 9 to 5 Matte Lipstick: Lakme is a nostalgic brand for me. I keep buying products from them because it reminds me of my home ! I don't necessarily see myself loving their product enough to put in a favorite. But this month, I am really enjoying this this matte lipstick. It’s a great everyday lipstick shade on me.
Makeup Geek Cosmetics
(MUG) Eyeshadows in Tuscan Sun and Crème Brule: MUG was unbelievably reigning
the single-pan sector for last 3 or 4
years. But with the new Colourpop pressed shadows having very similar (or
comparable) quality at slightly affordable prices coupled with free shipping
above 35$ will surely create fierce competition for MUG. But that’s beside the
point! Today I am just trying to share my love for this beautiful warm soft
coral called Tuscan Sun. It is so
pigmented and blends like a dream without much effort. Its a versatile shade
too! I wear it on the crease with shades like `Come & Get It` or `High Strung`,
I can also pair it with cooler shades like navy blue or pewter to bring a
little bit of warmth on my eyes. I have also worn it all over the lid and it
looks very beautiful and happy. Crème Brulee appeared in last year`s favourite.
I think this the most used MUG shadow for me. It is almost the same as my skin tone.
So I love to use it on my crease, especially if I go too heavy with my colorful crease shades. It
acts like an eraser and can make the blending much smoother. I love this shade,
& I can see hitting pan this year. Check detailed review here.
Tell me more about your favorites this month or rather last month :-)
Love,
~Arrru
