Infallible Sculpt


I saw this L'oreal Infallible Sculpt kit and I wanted to give it a go. I heard many people rave about the infallible range so I thought this one might be good too. I already had high hopes for it and it turned out to be better than I thought. 
It comes in two shades: Light/Medium and Medium/Dark. This one is in Light/Medium and it cost me £9.99. 
It is a weird texture, it is as if they had a powder product and they put water on it and let it dry a little. Confusing? It is a cream product but as soon as it goes on your skin it kind of converts into powder and it has a powder finish. Try the tester. 
The texture is so lovely. 
I love the darker colour. It is the right sort of brown for contour. It has the right amount of warm and grey. As this fades throughout the day you can still see that your face in contoured slightly but it still makes such a huge difference. 
The light colour is a little bit useless. It is not a full coverage. It means you can't use it instead of concealer. It is more like a colour corrector. The light shades sits in your cell lines and it kind of created this matte finish which is also lightening. To be honest I only used the lighter side once and I didn't like it. 
It doesn't smell of nothing and it has a little mirror as well. 
I am so happy about the brown colour and I have been using everyday for like a month now. 

What are your contour shades and products?

Plump Winter Lips


I will start by apologising for a dark picture but then I think it shows well how dark this lipstick is. 
I always loved L'oréal make-up but I don't know why I never look at their counters. They have a great make up selection from foundation, eyeshadows to nail polishes and lipsticks. 
But one day I was super down and I found this little beauty. I am always really appreciative of how good L'oréal packaging is especially their lipsticks. First of all it is gold, then it has that little thing on the lid which means you can only put the lid on one way only (it feels a little bit more secure), the smell of the lipstick is always sooooo good and feel luxurious and last but not least is that it says L'oréal on the actually lipstick like all the designer brands.
About the lipstick now, you can find it pretty much everywhere and it costs £6.99. When it is in the tub it looks like dark burgundy colour, however 462 Préliminare is purple when it is on the skin. 
I would say it has medium pigmentation it is not super pigmented but it is not sheen wither. I think this lipstick would be amazing with a little bit more pigment and if it was matte maybe like Bourjois 24 Hour Stay lipsticks. It has a glossy finish that I am not a big fan of but that doesn't put me of this lipstick. I love this colour because it is just the ultimate autumn/winter lipstick.
Although you could look a little vampy (which is good for Halloween or any themed party) but I just love it and I hope you will fall in love with it too.

Mascaras

Mascaras 


Hello! I've used variety of mascaras, of course I didn't take pictures of all of them 
as I don't have them with me however, I gathered a few and I'll talk about them. 



1. L'Oreal Telescopic Explosion Mascara (brown) - hmmm mascara does the job, nothing too fancy nothing too bad. The brush is quite useless however, it is great for bottom lashes and if you are about to run out of mascara you can use it on your brows to give that stronger shape and to keep your brows in place. (I've heard rumors that is discontinued, although you can find it on the internet) 


2. Maybelline Lash Stiletto (brown) - this mascara is great if you like to keep your make up as natural as possible. It makes the lashes so thin and long also the mascara is really nice, I hardly noticed any fall out. (this is discontinued also, plenty on the internet though. )


3. L'Oreal False Lash Architect 4 Dimension Effect Mascara (black) - Again nothing too amazing about this. I really like the brush, I'm more of a normal bushy wand kind of girl rather than plastic ones. I don't think it has they 4 dimension effect but as a l'Oreal product is an OK one. 


4. Oriflame glitter Mascara - I reallllly do not like this brush nor the mascara. You can't really see the glitter that much and the wand just glues your lashes together - yuuuuck! 


5. Dior Diorshow Mascara (black) - as a more luxury product I really like this one. The product is really nice the wand is amazing, maybe a bit too big but I like it. The product has a hint of nice scent which is really nice, it gives that luxury feeling. On the down side it dries much quicker than drugstore mascaras. 


6. YSL Shocking (no 5) - I bought this because I wanted that burgundy coloured mascara, however this one is kind of purpulish/burgundish/ black. It is a reallly nice mix if you don't want to go too much on a colour but you want to make your eyes bring out that green! The wand is nice however, does leave some clumps. Also has a lovely scent to it too. Again luxury product so it will dry our quicker. 


7. Benefit They're Real (black) -  O - M - G!!! The best thing I've ever laid my hands on. Honestly I was sooooo skeptical about it, until I tried it. And what a relief.  The product holds great on lashes, the wand is just amazing. It brushes very well, it makes your lashes fuller and longer aaaand it also has some bristles on the end of the wand so you can get those corners easily. I really like the packaging too, It looks quite unique. Also it is pricey and it dries out quickly too. (I had mine for about 3 months and it is on a dry side.) 


I hope you liked my thoughts on these mascaras. I'm more of a stick to one 
product person. I don't like the changes unless I didn't like the product so I don't have too much to talk about. 
If you have any suggestions feel free to leave them!
