Physician's Formula Organic Wear 2-in-1 Bronzer & Blush in light brown and pink rose

Hello,

Physician's Formula, Organic Wear, 2-in-1 Bronzer & Blush in light brown and pink rose is the only bronzer I actually like. Mainly because I am just not a big fan of bronzers. I like my skin as it is-pale but being a woman I always want to try something new. For a long time I was considering what type of bronzer I should have. Mainly because warm colours don't really complement my fair complexion. But I was  determent to buy a bronzer and I chose Physician's Formula, Organic Wear, 2-in-1 Bronze & Blush. Luckily it seems to be suitable:).

Physician's Formula Organic Wear 2-in-1 Bronzer&Blush

Product's description:
"Physician's Formula, Organic Wear, 2-in-1 Bronzer & Blush is easy-to-use 2-in-1 bronzer and blush allows shades to be used individually or layered for the ultimate sunkissed, natural-looking finish. Bronzer adds warmth and depth for a naturally tan glow while blush naturally enhances and accentuates cheeks for a radiant glow. May be worn alone or over makeup.
How to use it: lightly brush bronzer over face and neck for a natural-looking tan glow. Sweep blush over cheekbones to define and contour or apply right below cheekbones for a more defined and dramatic look. Layer blush on top of bronzer for the ultimate effect. For the most even application, be sure to tap excess powder from brush before applying. For best results on dry to very dry skin, apply moisturizer prior to using powder".

My opinion:

Physician's Formula, Organic Wear, 2-in-1 Bronzer & Blush is really nice. The colours  are nicely combined and work well together. They have have cool undertone and this is very important for me.

Physician's Formula, Organic Wear, 2-in-1 Bronzer &Blush

Before blending, I have applied a lot of product that you could see the colours better

They aren't very pigmented and give subtle and natural finish. No clown effect:). 

After blending, as you can see colours are sheer

I think this product suits fair complexion very well. The staying power is moderate. 

The packaging is very cute, it has two sides: one with the bronzer and blusher and another with the mirror.

Physician's Formula 2-in-1 Bronzer & Blush

This product has very good ingredients as well and is cruelty free.

Bourjois Healthy Balance Compact Powder review, 52 vanille

Hello,

today I would like to review a Healthy Mix powder by Bourjois.

Bourjois Healthy Balance Compact Powder in 52 vanille

The powder contains Asian fruits: Sharon fruit and Yuzu fruit. The first one will smooth and moisturize dry areas of your face and the second one will absorb excess shine. 

                             

This powder is great. Let me explain why. The most amazing thing about this powder is its texture. It is very finely ground and it really provides almost undetectable finish on the skin. The powder blends nice and the makeup looks very natural. My complexion is smooth, pores are less visible. I can honestly say that my skin looks fresh and radiant after application. It doesn't dry out the skin, it doesn't accentuate dry areas. I feel that my skin can breath. The only downside is the colour. I have bought the lightest shade: number 52 vanille but sadly it is too dark. I can only use this powder in the evenings or during foggy or dark days.I can recommend this product to those who are "less pale":).

It has dropped on the floor but you can see the colour better

Ingredients: TALC,NYLON-12,OCTYLDODECYL STEAROYL STEARATE,KAOLIN,ISOSTEARYL NEOPENTANOATE,DIPHENYL DIMETHICONE/VINYL DIPHENYL DIMETHICONE/SILSESQUIOXANE CROSSPOLYMER,ZINC PCA,METHYLPARABEN,PARFUM (FRAGRANCE),TOCOPHERYL ACETATE,ZINC STEARATE,AQUA (WATER),BUTYLENE GLYCOL,PROPYLPARABEN,DIOSPYROS KAKI FRUIT EXTRACT,CITRUS JUNOS FRUIT EXTRACT,[+/- (MAY CONTAIN) :CI 77007 (ULTRAMARINES),CI 77019 (MICA),CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499 (IRON OXIDES),CI 77891 (TITANIUM DIOXIDE)]11BMT001-1A

Real Techniques by Samantha Chapman, Miracle Complexion Sponge

Hello,
today I would like to describe my favourite makeup gadget which is Miracle Complexion Sponge by Samantha Chapman.

Producer description:
Your Base/Flawless
High Definition Results
Reveal Your Inner Expert
Great looks start with a flawless base.

Redefine your skin with our miracle complexion sponge. Its versatile design evenly blends makeup for a smooth, enhanced finish.

My opinion:

I really like using this miracle sponge for applying makeup. The result is great. It gives me poreless smooth  skin.  People compare it to the original beauty blender but I have never tried it. I can only tell that this miracle sponge is really great. It blends foundation perfectly into the skin and my skin looks fresh and dewy.

 I dry it on the radiator hence the marks

The sponge has different angles: it is flat and pointed on the top. The flat side is good for the under eye area and the pointy side is good for the area around my nose.

The only downside is that it soaks up quite a lot of foundation and it is hard to clean.

I recommend it, you won't regret buying it.

Joanna

Isadora eyeshadow quartet, 27 Amethyst Chrystal, eye shadow palette

Hello,
today I am reviewing Isadora eye shadow palette in Amethyst Crystal.

Product description:

Richly pigmented cream powder eye shadow 

– Color coordinated shades for advanced and creative make-up 

– Easy to apply and tone 

– Extra long lasting 

– Double applicator included 

– Suitable for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers 

Fragrance free. Clinically tested.

My opinion:

This palette consists of four colours which can be used alone or combined. I usually use white one to highlight the eyes and light lilac and light brown for accentuating the colour of my eyes. Because they have shimmering specks I use them rather for special occasions.

The eye shadows are silky and easy to apply. They are long lasting even on my oily eyelids. I think the secret of these eye shadows is the micro-fine formulation and thanks to this they blend perfectly. The box is big-5,2 g, so they will last for a long time.

Ingredients: Talc, Triticum Vulgare, Triticum Vulgare Starch, Cyclomethicone, Lanolin Oil, Cetyl Acetate, Acetylated Lanolin Alcohol, Propylparaben, Methylparaben. [+/- May contain: CI 77491/Iron Oxides, CI 77492/Iron Oxides, CI 77499/Iron Oxides, CI 77007/Ultramarines, CI 77742/Manganese Violet, CI 77289/Chromium Hydroxide Green, CI 77288/Chromium Oxide Greens, CI 19140:1/Yelloe-5-Lake, CI 77510/Ferric Ferrocyanide, CI 42090:2/Blue-1-Lake, CI 75470/Carmine, CI 77891/Titanium Dioxide, Mica]

L`Oreal, Lash Architect 4D, Curl & Lengthen Mascara

Hello,

I remember when I first bought L`Oreal, Lash Architect 3D many years ago and I was amazed how it worked. I had really beautiful looking lashes, curly, long, thick. During years I have tried many different mascaras ( I like to experiment with my lashes) but when I noticed it was in promotion I decided to buy this  Architect's 3 D "younger sister"- Architect 4D. Especially that it promises to give a falsh
 lash effect.

At the beginning I was quite happy, it did elongate my lashes, it did make them looking thicker. Anyway, it wasn't as good as its older version. No  'false lash effect' whatsoever. It did clump.
After about three weeks mascara started drying up and flaking. I couldn't use it anymore:(.  I have checked from the internet that some I don't even have the box anymore but here I am presenting the picture from the manufacturer's site:

Bourjois Blush Exclusif self adjusting blusher for healthy glow

Hello,

Product description:

Its formula contains pH reactive pigments to transform your cheeks into a customised pink shade.Its incredibly blendable cream-to-powder formula suits all skin tones for a fresh and gorgeous glow! 

As I have said before I am very pale and a good blusher is very important for me. When I first heard about self adjusting blusher I thought, wow, that must be great!  I thought that the blush by working with my pH will give me the most natural, healthy look. It will self-adjusts into a bespoke pink. 

Well, I don't know how the pH reactive pigments work but when I apply the blusher to my cheeks the colour changes into  pale pink which doesn't look too promising.. I was hoping for a "fresh complexion and made-to-measure healthy glow"...But then maybe this is my "healthy glow":).

Blusher has a creamy thick formula and doesn't blend too easily. I apply it with fingers.

The packaging is small and cute and it comes with a mirror.

I prefer cheek stains definitely.

Joanna

Bourjois Youth Extension Flower Perfection Foundation SPF 15, 51 light vanilla, long lasting good coverage matte finish

Hello,

this is my second favorite foundation. It is almost perfect:). I say almost perfect because it accentuates sometimes dry/peeling spots. Apart from that Flower Perfection offers a great coverage, hides imperfections and blemishes without creating a mask-like effect. The skin is matted but this is not a flat matt finish. Foundation leaves skin dewy, soft to the touch. 

The application process is easy. I apply it with fingers and  it  blends well without leaving streaks. Only small amount is needed to cover the whole face. Using the powder is not necessary.

The staying power is very good and I have oily skin. Foundation has a thick, velvety texture and I prefer using it during cooler months.It has SPF 15.

I recommend it.

Greetings,

Joanna

Benefit, Benetint + gloss, lip and cheek stain, pocket pal

I love lip stains. They give me this fresh, girly look I opt for.
Benetint has a lovely red rose colour and it smells of roses. It is buildable  and you can achieve subtle or more dramatic look.  I prefer more natural look because my lips are very pale and I don't want to look like  a clown.  I first apply a bit of benetint on the lips and then I use the lip gloss. Very practical and easy. I find it a bit drying and I need to moisturize lips more often.

But the most I like using it on my cheeks. It looks very natural and compliments my skin tone. It doesn't fade and stays all day. It dries quickly and one has to be fast with the application.
The pocket pal can be carried in a handbag. Although the size is small it lasts for long.
I recommend it.

Collection Lasting Perfection Ultimate Wear Concealer, Fair

Hello,

I have seen reviews of this concealer on the you tube and I thought that I would like to try one. It is made by an English company Collection 2000. When I lived in England I would use their cosmetics quite often. Now I live in Finland but luckily my English friend was coming over and she got me two of the concealers. Bless her:).

Product Description

The ultimate wear concealer promises to conceal flaws, imperfections and blemishes, for up to 16 hours. This skin perfecting, oil free product is also transfer proof and water resistant for full and long lasting coverage.

·         Conceals flaws and blemishes for up to 16 hours

·         Transfer resistant

I don't use this concealer regularly only when I need to cover dark circles under my eyes. I actually apply this close to the inner corners of the eye lids and it gives me a well rested, radiant look. It blends easily. For blending I use EcoTools airbrush concealer which I have reviewed before. It lasts all day and gives a great coverage.

When I applied compact powder over the top of this concealer it looked a little cakey and accentuated fine lines.  Now I just use a bit of a loose powder and it sets the concealer nicely. Because the consistency is thick one needs to be careful with application. Just a bit of cosmetic will do:).
If you need a concealer which offers a good coverage and stays all day I recommend it! And it is cheap  as well:).

Benefit eye bright, instant eye brightener

Hello,

I apply this product in the inner corner of my eye lid and straight away I look more awake and fresh:). Sometimes I apply it under my eye brow and it gives me an instant lift and adds radiance to my look. It may be difficult to blend it properly because its formula is quite thick. The staying power is moderate but as I have said before my skin is oily. The pencil is small and can be carried in a hand bag so we can reapply it when needed. If you opt for a girly, fresh and natural looking make up then I highly recommend the product.

Greetings,

Joanna

Sante Naturkosmetik, Eyeshadow Trios, Smokey Eyes 06, organic natural eye shadow for smokey eyes

Hello,

today I would like to review a Sante eyeshadow Trios in 06 Smokey Eyes. They are gorgeous and my favourite eye shadows. 

Sante Naturkosmetik Eyeshadow Trios in 06

I don't use eye shadows too often but this small compact is always in my make up bag. It comes with a mirror and a small brush which surprisingly I find quite useful. If I need more define look then I use different, let's say more professional type of brushes:).

The eye shadow compact consists of three shades: frosty white and two frosty brown colours. Because they have cool undertone they are ideal for a summer type woman:). But to be honest they will compliment any type:). The white colour is good for highlighting, the browns add depth to the eyes. Because the colours are very natural they are ideal for creating smokey eyes look. Beautiful,  radiant and natural look guaranteed:).

The texture of Eyeshadow Trios is as smooth as silk:). For that reason they are very easy to apply and blend. The staying power is moderate but I have oily eyelids so nothing really stays there without a primer. If I use a primer these eye shadows will stay nice and fresh for the whole day.

This product contains organic olive oil, jojoba oil and chamomile. It is also certified by the BDIH as a natural product and contains only organic and natural ingredients. Certain ingredients may also carry the Ecocert mark. Also according to manufacturer talc used in this product "is certified free of asbestos and is not nano-refined so will not penetrate the skin". 

Ingredients: Talc, Magnesium Stearate, Lauryl Lactate, Lauroyl Lysine, Parfum (Essential Oils), Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil*, Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil*, Bisabolol, Tocopheryl Acetate, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Extract*, Mica, [+/-CI 77499, CI 75470, CI 77007, CI 77288, CI 77289, CI 77510, CI 77742, CI 77891, CI 77491, CI 77492]

I can recommend this product to everyone. It is natural, safe to use and it will  bring out and enhance the natural beauty of your eyes.  You will have eyes you have always dreamt of:).

Clarins Colour Quench Lip Balm, Long Lasting Moisture & Shine in 03 Candy Pink review

Hello,
Clarins Paris Colour Quench Lip Balm is my favorite lip gloss. I just love it and I am sure you will love it, too. It will offer you a shine of a lip gloss and repairing action of a lip balm.  I own number 03 candy pink which is a light pink colour with a shimmer.

This balm will offer you a  subtle color and shine and at the same time your lips will be moisturized:). Clarins Paris Colour Quench Lip Balm will sooth your lips as well.You can wear it alone or over a lipstick.

Clarins Paris Colour Quench Lip Balm without flash

Clarins Paris Colour Quench Lip Balm with flash

How does it work?
when you apply it your lips will feel instantly hydrated and nourished. The soothing comfort will last for hours even if your lips are as "demanding" as mine. My lips are often dry or chapped (especially that I live in Finland where is cold and windy) and this balm has been great. The lip gloss isn't sticky so wearing it during windy day will not be a problem. You can forget about hair getting stuck in the lip gloss:).
The balm will give you a hint of color and a lot of shine. No wonder Clarins Paris Colour Quench Lip Balm is a Anti-Ageing Award Winner Beauty Bible. I highly recommend it!
Thanks for reading and greetings.

Nars Orgasm Blush review, peachy pink colour

Hello,
Nars Orgasm blush is one of the most popular blushers in the world. For many people it is a staple blusher. Its color is described as a peachy pink with golden shimmer which is suitable for every skin tone. Personally I think that this is more pink than peach color.

Nars Orgasm blush

I have a very fair complexion and  a good blush it's a must have product. I had high hopes and thought that Nars Orgasm might be suitable for me. Unfortunately it is not, its color is too dark. Shimmer specks are fairly big and the pores may become more visible. The good thing is that the blush accentuates the cheek bones nicely making them stand out. Because of that I sometimes use Orgasm blush for the nights out when I want to create more dramatic look.

Nars Orgasm blush which unfortunately my blusher fell on the floor

The staying power of the blush is good, the texture is silky and the application is easy.
The packaging  is made of black rubber and gets dirty easily (golden shimmer is everywhere) which is very unpractical and inelegant.

Overall this is a good product but I can't agree with opinions that it suits every skin tone.

L'Oreal Miss Manga mascara, lengthening volumizing mascara, manga look

Hello,
The manufacturer promises big bold upper and lower lashes thanks to a special cone-shaped 360 ° Flexor brush. The brush is flexible (in the picture you can see the wand which can bend). Cone-shaped ending helps to emphasize the lower lashes. It will give you wide-eye manga look. However achieving this spectacular effect requires a little extra work and time which I normally don't have in the mornings.

At the beginning mascara was too wet and I was a bit disappointed. However after a few weeks  the consistency has improved and now mascara is doing its job pretty good. Lashes are thickened, elongated and  flexible to the touch. This flexibility is something I like about miss manga the most. Important that mascara does not smudge and remains intact for many hours. It doesn't cause irritation and  washes away easily with oil or eye makeup remover.
I recommend it.
Regards

Bourjois Little Round Pot Blusher, 37 Rose Pompon, light pink delicate blusher

Hello,

today I would like to review a famous Bourjois Little Round Pot Blusher. I got this blusher in 37 Rose Pompon (what a cute name). The colour is light pink and very subtle. I have fair complexion and this colour looks quite natural on me but if you opt for a stronger colour I would suggest using another shade. Luckily Bourjois Little Round Pot Blusher is available in a wide range of shades to match all skin tones so I am sure everybody will find something suitable.

The blusher has a mirror and brush included so it is perfect for the handbag and for touch-ups on the go. I use that brush for the application using circular movements. Normally I would choose my special blush brush from Sephora but in this case I prefer this small Bourjois blush. After application my complexion looks healthier, fresher. The blusher is long lasting and hard to believe but it has been around for almost 150 years.

The blusher has an amazing smell of roses. 







Ingredients: Talc • Parfum (Fragrance) • Bentonite • Zea Mays (Corn) Starch • Silica • Hydroxycitronellal • Cinnamyl Alcohol • Dextrin • Magnesium Aluminum Silicate • Eugenol • Benzyl Salicylate • Linalool • Evernia Prunastri Extract • Citronellol • Geraniol • Amyl Cinnamal • Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone • Hexyl Cinnamal • Coumarin • Benzyl Benzoate • Limonene • Benzyl Alcohol • Farnesol • Benzyl Cinnamate • [+/- (May Contain): CI 15850 (Red 7 Lake) • CI 75470 (Carmine) • CI 77007 (Ultramarines) • CI 77019 (Mica) • CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499 (Iron Oxides) • CI 77861 (Tin Oxide) • CI 77891 (Titanium Dioxide)] 11BMT008-1B

Burt's Bees, Replenishing Lip Balm with Pomegranate Oil

Hello,

Burt's Bees Replenishing Lip Balm with Pomegranate Oil has a subtle red tint to it, which gives a little bit of color to the lips. I like its fruity natural smell. It is moisturizing on the lips and brings relief to dry or chapped lips. It is a bit waxy but I like it, it feels like my lips are well protected during cold windy weather. Lips stay moisturized some time after the balm wears off.

I like it a lot for its natural and very good ingredients. After all, one should be very careful what to apply on the lips.

Ingredients: helianthus annuus (sunflower) seed oil, cera alba (beeswax, cire d'abeille), cocos nucifera (coconut) oil, ricinus communis (castor) seed oil, lanolin, aroma (flavor)*, punica granatum (pomegranate) seed oil, tocopherol, rosmarinus officinalis (rosemary) leaf extract, glycine soja (soybean) oil, canola oil (huile de colza), carmine, benzyl salicylate, cinnamal, citral, eugenol, geraniol, hydroxycitronellal, limonene, linalool.

Maybelline Baby Lips Balm, Pink Punch

Hello,this is a review of Maybelline Baby Lips Balm in Pink Punch.I have been testing it for the last couple of weeks and I would like to share my opinion with you.

It is worth mentioning that this lip balm is more like a lipstick.  The Maybelline Baby Lips Balm in Pink Punch is an intensive baby pink colour and it should suit almost everybody. But for example on my lips it goes very pink so if you have pale lips naturally (like me) please take it under consideration.  Good thing is that although the colour is on a bright side it still suites me and I feel comfortable about wearing it. 

Pros:

• the balm feels very good on the lips
• it has a creamy texture
• it hydrates the lips while you are wearing it
•  It will not feel sticky 
• flattering colour
• it will not cause an allergic reaction
• availability
• price

• But it will not help much if your lips are really dry
• it will not  moisturize your lips for a full 8 hours as the producer has stated. Especially now,during the winter. 

Ingredients: Polybutene, Octyldodecanol, Isopropyl Myristate, Petrolatum, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Polyethylene, Ozokerite, Ethylhexyl Salicylate, Butyrospermum Parkii Butter / Shea Butter, Diisostearyl Malate, Candelilla Cera / Candelilla Wax / Cire De Candelilla, Vp/Hexadecene Copolymer, Silica Dimethyl Silylate, Parfum / Fragrance, Calcium Aluminum Borosilicate, Pentaerythrityl Tetra-Di-T-Butyl Hydroxyhydrocinnamate, Tocopherol, Tocopheryl Acetate, Alumina, Aroma / Flavor, Silica, Isopropyl Palmitate, Pentaerythrityl Tetraisostearate, Limonene, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite, Calcium Sodium Borosilicate, Benzyl Benzoate, Centella Asiatica Extract, Aluminum Hydroxide, Citral, Linalool, Hexyl Cinnamal, Tin Oxide, Geraniol, Eugenol, Aloe Barbadensis Extract / Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Mel / Honey / Miel, Calcium Pantothenate, Ascorbic Acid, Dimethicone, Sodium Chondroitin Sulfate, Atelocollagen. 
May Contain: CI 77891 / Titanium Dioxide, MICA, CI 45410 / Red 28 Lake, CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499 / Iron Oxides, CI 15850 / Red 7, CI 45380 / Red 22 Lake, CI 19140 / Yellow 5 Lake. CI 42090 / Blue 1 Lake, CI 15985 / Yellow 6 Lake, CI 75470 / Carmine.

Overall, I'd say go for it:). But please remember that Maybelline Baby Lips Balm in Pink Punch is more like a lipstick than a lip balm. It will give you a colour but it won't really nourish or super moisturize your lips. 

Greetings, Joanna

IsaDora, Moisturizing Lip Gloss, Reflecting Lilac

Hello,
how are you? IsaDora moisturizing lip gloss contains jojoba oil, which  is protective and nourishing. It soothes irritation and prevents dryness. It adds a beautiful shine to the lips. I quite often use lip glosses but only on this one people were commenting how nice shine it gives. The lip gloss smells very nice, like a candy and I like sweets:). It has a non sticky formula but surely one has to be careful that it won't stick to the hair during windy days.

I liked this lip gloss so much that I actually have purchased it twice. My color is Reflecting Lilac, which is a very light pink/lilac color with tiny sparkles. On the lips it looks transparent. The gloss has hydrating power as well though doesn't stay long.

Overall, I really recommend it.

Giorgio Armani Blushing Fabric Second Skin Blush, Shimmering Peach, cream gel blush

Hello,
Blushing Fabric Second Skin Blush is my favourite blush. I wanted to buy it since long time but I would always think that the price was far too high. However, a few months ago there was a sale and... became a happy owner of this blush in number 1, Shimmering Peach. I think that a Shimmering Peach should be a Shimmering Raspberry instead because the color doesn't look like a peach at all. It is pink with golden specks and thanks to them cheeks look fresh and radiant. The blush blends beautifully with the skin and looks very natural, people actually think it is natural:). Even the make-up artist was fooled away.
Second Skin blush is a mix of a creme and gel and because of that it gives a silky finish. At first glance, the color seems to be bright, but when applied to the skin it blends nicely and looks more transparent. The color remains untouched by the most part of the day, which is quite something because I have oily skin.
The blush isn't cheap but it lasts for long.
And what do you think?

Joanna
