M.A.C minerlize skin finish in natural medium plus





Hi everyone 

Today I am reviewing on "Mac's Mineralize Skin Finish in natural medium plus. Its a domed shaped powder pouch which provides you a dimensional yet natural matt finish, its good for everyday use with foundation or with BB cream to even out your skin, & give you a flawless finish. It is also good to fix your foundation or as a touchup anytime in the day. 



My experience :
It sets my makeup perfectly so i don't need any other touchups througout the day, It gives me a matt fish with a lil bit glowy skin which i really like it. I always take this stuff with me when i'm leaving home & Its the most natural looking product I ever used just love it.



Application:
Apply with a powder brush or kabuki brush for a good result.

NOTD (nail of the day): valentine's special

NOTD:
SWEET & SIMPLE POLKA DOTS FOR VALENTINE'S DAY 


Hi everyone 
Its my first "NOTD" & I think nails glamorize the looks like no other part of our body. Today i'll share sweet & simple velentine's day nails . . . 

PRODUCTS I USED FOR THIS:

  • Flormar nail dryer manicure finishing spray
  • H&M nail paint in "Pink mist"
  • O.P.I nail paint in "Quarter of a cent cherry"
  • Revlon clear for top coat
  • Cotton bud to clean up the side of nails 
  • Pencil or dotting tool for ceating dots

Lests begin:

                   

 First start with a base coat of your choice, then apply 2 nail paints the red (O.P.I's Quarter of a cent cherry ) & the other one is from h&m called pink mist , (its a combination of soft pink and beige). 
Then apply 2 coats of the pink mist and one coat of O.P.I nail paint.

After applying both nail paints take a dotting tool or pencil or anything with a needle head, to create these polka dots on your nails. Now seal or protect your nails with a clear top coat & finish off with flormal finishing spray.

Here is the finish look hope you guys like it
let me know with your comments

Essence color art pigments


ESSENCE COLOR ART PIGMENTS:


Hi everyone
today i'm reviewing essence color art pigments. We can use these pigments  as a lip color, nail paint & as a eyeshadow.  I got 2 colors, one is from braking dawn part 2 collection " alice had  a vision again" and the other one is "miss piggy's lollipop" . "AiIce had a vision again" is a deep purple color while "miss piggy's lollipop" is a pretty pink (barbie  pink ) color. these come in 20 different shades & are not only highly pigmented  but you can mix them with several other shades. 



MY EXPERIENCE:

 I love both colors,  these are awesome, they are very easy to blend on eyes , very buildible, just like a satin finish with a highly glossy touch in it . . .


APPLICATION: 

Don't rub the color on your eyelids , just pat it on to your eyes. For a great result use essence silicon brush (essence color arts multiple tasker) with this multitasked you can pat your eyeshadow to the right place, its good for mixing colors & you can also dip this silicon tip into makeup remover to remove extra eyeshadow from your face. 



SWATCHES:









THUMBS UP:
  • With this you can make a lot of different shades 
  • Highly pigmented
  • Not very expensive
  • You can use this as a lipgloss,blush,nail paint  & blush as well
