FOTD: MAC SO CHAUD LIPSTICK!

Hello Beauties!





How are we all??  As some of you may know I recently purchased Mac Matte lipstick in So Chaud so today I am sharing a few pics of me rocking it. Mac So Chaud is a gorgeous orange shade,althought its matte I didnt find it that drying. I believe this shade would look beautiful on most skintones, you can add a red or brown liner or gloss on top if its too bold for you. I have a feeling this colour will get a lot of loving from me throughout summer lol

Sharon's Favourite blushes

Hello Lovelies!








How are y'all??? Hope u having a beautiful weekend. Just thought would share blushes that I reach out for quite often and cant do without...!





SWATCHES FROM LEFT to RIGHT

1.Milani Powder blush in Mai Tai- a matte coral blush that is super pigmented and that suits most skintones


2.Nars Taos blush- A gorgeous desert rose shade very close to Mac Ambering Rose. Its super pigmented and its my most favourite. If I could have just one blush Taos would be it


3.Nars Taj Mahal- A vibrant tangerine orange blush with golden sheen. Texture is very smooth,it gives skin a subtle glow,Its perfect for those with deeper skintones but those with light skintones can still  find it  useful but using a very light hand


4.K By Beverley Knight contouring blush in Flame- A deep warm amber blush infused with gold sparkles,it gives a lovely flush of colour and is perfect for everyday use


5.Barry Blusher in #4 Rasberry- A bright magenta pink powder blush that is very pretty and nicely pigmented.


6. Sleek Rose Gold blush- A dupe to the famous Nars Orgasm blush,its a gorgeous peachy pink shade with golden sheen. It is very pigmented and gives skin a healthy glow

Lancome Teint Idole Ultra 24 Hour Foundation Review!

Hello Sweeties!






Today I bring you another review of the second foundation I bought from Lancome in March. The last time I made a post about how I was loving it,many of you asked me to do a review so look no further here it is!


LANCOME TEINT IDOLE ULTRA 24H SHADE #10 PRALINE £27.00
24H Wear&Comfort. Retouch Free. Divine Perfection SPF5
24h of wear for a divine,lasting perfection
Following 8years of research, Lancome unveils its first 24h wear foundation for lasting perfection.
With its new EternalSoft technology,Teint Idole Ultra 24h defeats all challenges. **Retouch free, Complexion stays perfectly sublime.
Shine free. Flawless.Unified

24H OF DIVINE COMFORT
In perfect affinity with the skin Teint Idole Ultra 24h is irresistibly comfortable. Its new,blendable and fresh texture is divine and leaves the complexion perfectly smooth,velvety and matte with no powdery effect.
Oil- and transfer free foundation
Sweat and friction resistant
Without mask effect
Suitable for all skin types,even sensitive
Dermatologically tested
Non-comedogenic


WHAT DO I THINK????
I absolutely love this foundation- Coverage is medium buildable which is perfect for me as I am not a fan of full coverage foundations. This foundation doesnt cake up or leave fine lines around my mouth like some foundations do. I have had compliments on my skin from family and friends saying my skin looks great and I look flawless,I was moved by the comments seriously but had already convinced myself I look amazing from the first day I wore it alone in the house lol


Although Lancome states that this is a 24hour foundation I cannot backup that claim as I never wear foundation for that long anyways who does? I  have worn this foundation without a primer and setting powder from 8am in the morning when I left the house to 10pm at night when I get back home now thus a total of 14hours and this foundation did not move. I have normal,combination skin with oily T-Zone I did not touch up my face,I never do anyway my makeup usually  stays in place all day!


PROS
*Long lasting
*Doesnt look like a mask
*Feels very light on the skin
*Looks natural
*Offers medium buildable coverage
* Can be used by all skin types
* Blends effortlessly
*Doesnt cake up
*Doesnt oxidize
*Variety of shades is phenomenal 18 released in the UK and 28 in the USA
*Doesnt clog pores
*Gives a velvety matte finish which is not powdery


CONS
*Has rose fragrance may not be suitable for those with sensitive skin
*May need primer&setting powder if you have oily skin
*Less shades released in the UK but Im not bothered as I found my perfect match shade


OVERALL
I love it so much to give it holy grail satus. It matches me perfectly and did not break me out. Love how its long lasting with no need for touch ups.Would recommend at least getting samples before commiting to a full bottle as what works for my skin may not work for yours

The Body Shop Tea Tree Skin Clearing Facial wash Review

Hello Lovelies!




How are you all???? Today I bring you of the Tea tree facial Wash Review from The Body shop. Have had it for 2months and I think its high time I put my 2cents in.



The Body shop says:
This daily use facial wash for blemished skin gives clearer-looking skin when used as part of a regular regime


Claims:
*Removes excess oils without over drying skin
*Help remove impurities
*Clinically proven to give clearer looking skin


Key Ingredients:
*Community Fair trade Organic tea tree oil
*Tamanu oil
*Lemon tea tree oil
*Menthol

MY THOUGHTS
I love the smell of tea tree oil which is somewhat medicinal and have long known the benefits of using it as an acne fighter. My skin was acting up towards the end of 2011 so whilst browsing through the body shop I was drawn to this product. I was afraid it would be too strong for my skin.irritate me and dry the skin but thankfullly it didnt. The first few days of using it I had a tingly burning sensation but with continued use my skin got used to it and the burning feeling stopped eventually.

This cleanser does not foam but I can assure you it delivers. It lathers up when mixed with water and after use my face feels deeply cleansed,smooth&brighter.

It does seem to clear blemishes and acne spots but you have to use it continuously to see great effects I guess. I have had little to no break outs at all since using this cleanser.

I really do like this cleanser,not only does it keep breakouts at bay but it helps control oil. I have normal/combination skin with oily T-Zone but since using it my T-zone is less oily.

I think this product will be great for those with combination,oily and acne prone skin



                               
                       Where to buy and how much?
Can purchase from the body shop and it costs £4.50 for a 250ml. It will last you 2months or even more when used daily!






                                          HAVE YOU TRIED THIS
                              WHAT CLEANSER ARE YOU USING?








                                             Have a wonderful day Chicas
                                              Stay Beautiful&Blessed
                                               Much Love

Nars Taos Blush VS Mac Ambering Rose Blush

Hello Sweeties!




This is a post to share a dupe that I found. I love finding cheap and great dupes but was less impressed when I realised that I had bought almost the same thing from high end brands.


I really love Nars Taos blush which is a gorgeous desert rose blush I also like the Mac Ambering rose which is also in the rose family. I prefer my Nars Taos as Mac Ambering rose comes out like shimmer on my skintone. I really have to build up Ambering Rose for it to show up or mix it with another blush. Overall I love this blushes but like I said I prefer Nars Taos as it shows up better on me and is more pigmented.


Here are a few comparison swatches!




NARS TAOS ON THE LEFT
MAC AMBERING ROSE ON THE RIGHT

;
NARS TAOS BLUSH ON THE LEFT
MAC AMBERING ROSE ON THE RIGHT


Nars Taos blush retails for £21.00
Mac Ambering Rose retails for £17.50


what are your thoughts
which blush do you prefer?



Have a wonderful day Chicas
