Colourpop Ultra Matte lip in Beeper ๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’‹

Hello Beautiful People ❤️






Two posts in a week ๐Ÿ™€yay! Lol I feel like I have achieved so much hahaha!! Anyway so have really been into Colourpop Ultra matte lips lately and one of my favourites is Beeper!  Beeper is described as a Warm Mid Tone TAupe. It's a muted, medium dark rosy brown with subtle warm undertones but with a flat matte finish. Pigmentation is great . It lasted a good 6-7 hours on me before I could reapply. Closest shade to this is Mac Velvet Teddy or Charlotte Tilbury Very Victoria in case you can't get hold of Colourpop. I wish Colourpop can start shipping to the UK or open an online store for us! sigh!!!
Here is Face of the day with Colourpop Beeper ๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’‹

Lipstick loving: Mac Retro Matte Lipstick Relentlessly Red๐Ÿ’„

Hello My Lovelies!



How have y'all been? It's been a while I put up a post but please do forgive me.my busy schedule won't allow me to post regularly. I do have a lot of makeup looks and a haul posts coming up shortly as I have purchased quite a number of skincare products and makeup since the last post

Anyways I have been loving this Retro Matte Lipstick from Mac by the name Relentlessly Red. The staying power is amazing and although it's a retro matte it isn't drying on my lips at all
Relentlessly Red is described as a bright pinkish coral matte but on me it pulls of as a dark coral red that is almost neon. I absolutely love the shade, it's unique and I have nothing like it in my collection.


Below are pictures of me wearing Mac Relentlessly Red 
Excuse my brows lol it's a result of going to someone new who butchered them!






On the rest of my face
Smashbox Photofinish Light primer
Estรฉe Lauder Double wear foundation 
Nars Radiant creamy concealer in Caramel
Nars Albatross Highlighter
Ben Nye Topaz powder
Mac Fix+ spray

Carmex lip balm
Mac Redd lip liner

What do you think about this lipstick?
What lipstick are you loving at the moment?
Have you tried any lipstick from the Mac Retro Matte Collection?





Till Next time
Stay Beautiful and Blessed

Mini Black|Up Haul, Review and a FOTD!

Hello Lovelies!





Compliments of the new season to y'all. Hope you had lovely time

during the festive holidays. 


I been meaning to try Black|Up Cosmetics for a while so whilst in Croydon I popped over by their counter in Debenhams. There was lots of products I wanted to purchase but I limited myself to two because I have never bought anything from the brand before. What I really loved is that this brand focuses on women of colour. As a woc myself I have problems finding the right foundation. Some foundations are either too red, too orange or oxidise as the day goes by.

I am happy with the products I purchased and I will definitely go back to their counter for other item I want to try such as the Two Way Cake, Matte primer, Fluid foundation ,lip lacquers , illuminator and the contour stick




Black|Up Full Coverage Cream Foundation 

Dark spots, scars, flaws and blemishes… This new foundation hides the most severe imperfections to create a flawless complexion without caking. 

    Its innovative formula and creamy texture perfectly conceals flaws and blemishes for a totally smooth looking skin. 
    Enriched in extremely fine, micronized pigments, the Full Coverage Cream Foundation offers an even make up in extremely pure and vibrant colors. 

Pros❤️❤️❤️
- You don't need a lot to cover you face (pea sized)
- great staying power
- oil free 
- blends easily
- non ashy
- full coverage
- easy to travel with as it's in a squeeze tube packaging
- fragrance free
- 15 shades to choose from

Cons๐Ÿ‘Ž
- transfers easily
- price as it's more on the high end side



I was matched to shade HC07 but I think I have to go up a shade during winter. The texture of the foundation is thick and creamy but it blends smoothly. The finish is beautiful and flawless. I have combination skin leaning towards oily it lasts throughout the day. I wore it for about 12hrs and only blotted my t-zone once. Although it is oil free I advise that you use primer and a setting powder especially  if you Have oily skin.One thing I did observe was that the foundation transfers, I had migraine around noon and decided to take a 2hour nap , when I woke up the foundation had rubbed off onto my hand and cushion I lay my head on though it was still on my face

Overall I think this is a very good foundation if you prefer full coverage foundations. It photographs well
It did not clog my pores or break me out. It feels very light on the skin. I will definitely repurchase it ❤️



 


    Black|Up Paris Lip Lacquer shade VL06
    A true UFO on planet make-up that combines all the advantages of lipstick and lip gloss. Fusion between intense color and extreme shine, lips are outrageously lacquered and sophisticated for a never seen before make-up result. Its creamy texture provides perfect coverage in one step, even on the darkest lips. The color is ultra pure and very intense with 10 gorgeous and unique shades saturated in pigments.

I bought the shade VL06 which is a blue based violet . It is so pretty and it reminds me of Mac Heroine lipstick.  The lip lacquer is glossy but highly pigmented.  It is non sticky and doesn't leave me with white gunk around my lips. Lasting power is about 4hours before you have to reapply but as it fades it leaves the most gorgeous tint. I love this Lip lacquer and I shall be buying more shades. 

Below I used the Black|Up Full coverage foundation and lip lacquer

New in : Nars Albatross and Nars Audacious lipstick Angela ❤️

Hello My Lovelies❤️






 

How have y'all been?
Last week I  passed through Nars counter In London Selfridges and as usual I couldn't leave there empty handed lol 


Nars Cosmetics Highlighting Powder Blush in Albatross
I been meaning to get this for ages but was stuck on my Nars orgasm illuminator for a while.  Albatross is a white powder loaded with shimmer, the multipurpose blusher is ideal for adding a highlight to your face, neck and dรฉcolletage 
- The soft shimmering colour adds instant radiance to my complexion, it can be worn on its own or layered over other color products for added highlight and dimension
- It is white but once swatched on my hand or cheekbone it gives me a golden glow which I really love❤️


Nars Audacious Lipstick in Angela
Dramatic Depth. Unstoppable Character. This modern lipstick by Nars is shamelessly seductive in touch and texture, the sensation is audacious. Unadulterated luxury glides on like satin across skin with single stroke coverage.
- One stroke, full coverage creamy wear
- Luxurious texture and enriched with ingredients to smooth and nourish lips
- Long lasting formula
 ❤️❤️❤️I really love this lipstick ,housed in a black,sleek magnetic packaging it's everything I want my lipstick to be, creamy, highly pigmented, smooth, long lasting without cracking my lips. Hands down it has become one of my favourite lipsticks. Planning to buy couple more from the same Audacious range which comprises of about 30 shades if I'm not mistaken (don't quote me lol)
- Nars Audacious lipstick in Angela is a vivid pink orchid shade, Its very pretty, I love it and I think many skin tones can pull it off  





What's your favourite highlighter ?
Have you tried the Nars Audacious range lipstick?
Please share with me your latest purchases






Till next time
Stay Beautiful and Blessed
Much Love

Mini Dior Haul and a FOTD

Hello My Lovelies ❤️




How have y'all been?
Just a quick post to share few bits I bought from Dior over a month ago. I really love Dior as a brand and I think their products are beautiful and classy. When going to work, church or even special occasions I always feel sophisticated with my Dior products. My most favourite item(s) is J'adore perfume it's a beautiful fragrance
I could go on all day about my love for Dior lol but let's get on to the products I bought








Dior Pure Poison Eau de Parfum 
Once upon a time there was a fragrance that was innocent yet captivating , sincere yet mysterious . Pure Poison incarnates seduction in its purest state by exploring its duality and irresistible alchemy. Based on orange blossom, jasmine, gardenia , amber and sandalwood, this delicate yet generous modern portion reveals the seductress within. This stunning perfume from Dior features a floral note, a Calabrian bergamot top note, an orange blossom heart note and a white musk base note to beautiful effect. I really like this perfume , I prefer to use it in the evening when going on special occasion❤️


Diorskin Nude - Natural Glow Radiant Foundation SPF15 £32.00
Emblematic of the range, this light melting foundation has become a cult product. It provides a subtle velvet finish with just the right amount of correction, revealing skins texture and adding natural, shine free radiance for a perfect natural glow.  It is available in x, radiance-enhancing specialised shades that use translucence and half tones to adjust to every complexion, for an even more natural result in every light. It's formula is enriched with natural skin care ingredients for more beautiful and radiant skin day after day.
- This foundation is beautiful and feels very light whilst giving skin a healthy glow. I was matched in the shade 050 (Dark Beige) for reference I'm like an NC47 in Mac jus a tad darker than nc45 , nc50 is too dark. I'm a Beige Praline shade 10 in Lancome foundations. 



Dior Addict Fluid Stick - High impact glossy colour lip hybrid £26.00
Shade #338 Mirage  
Dior Addict Fluid Stick enables a flawless application in a single sweep: the high impact colour and long wear of a classic lipstick, combined with the shine of a gloss, all in a thin film that delivers sensational comfort. Colour and shine come together as one for maximum compact with intense, long wearing lip stain pigments directly encapsulated in spheres of gloss. Dior Addict Fluid Stick does not contain wax but water for maximum lightness, an immediate fresh effect and addictive comfort. a pure object of desire: the illusion is maintained until the case is opened and an applicator emerges that is steeped in colour and as precise and easy to use as a lipstick.
- This is my second Dior Addict Fluid stick and I really love them. They have wide variety of shades to choose from and I like that they are long lasting and non sticky. I plan to get a few more soon lol
- The shade I bought is called #338 Mirage it's a pretty nude peachy colour perfect for everyday use❤️



Sorry bout the lighting lol but I'm wearing Dior nude natural glow radiant foundation #050 and I'm also-wearing Dior addict fluid stick in #338 Mirage in the above picture, I lined my lips with a brown Maybelline lip liner sorry forgot shade.
- I used Estรฉe Lauder double wear concealer 05  under my eyes , L'oreal organza gel liner and Benefit They're real mascara. 





Have you tried these products.
What have you bought recently?
Till next time
