Revlon Photoready Concealer

-

Packaging:
Black plastic twist up tube with clear plastic lid. It does attract dirty finger marks. The size is portable and the lid does stay firmly on the tube.

Smell:
None.


Colour:
Light Pale 002 - more yellow undertoned colour. Medium coverage with a matte finish. There is a light shade and medium colours.

R- concealer blended
Formula/ Texture:
The concealer is creamy and smooth in texture. It is a little thicker then a liquid concealer but is somewhat lightweight on the face. I've found to be very long wearing and works well applied with fingers or a brush. Also you're face needs to be well hydrated and moisturised otherwise it picks up dry skin.

This concealer needs to be blended very well into the skin otherwise it looks as though it's just sitting on the face. It is easy to blend with fingers or a brush. It's easy to remove with a basic makeup wipe.

I use this under my eyes and I don't have the darkest bags but it does cover this and make them more neutralised. If you apply this concealer heavily under the eyes it will cake up and fall into the creases under the eyes. Lately I've been using it around the corners of my mouth to neutralise the redness there now we're approaching winter and it is doing a good job.

 If you have really dry skin, this will won't work for you as these areas will be picked up. If you are after a medium to full coverage creamy concealer that is easy blended in, this is will be up your alley.

Available:
From Priceline, pharmacies and discount department stores for $25 for 3.2g/0.11oz.

Innoxa Organic Brightening Eye Creme

Packaging: Opaque white plastic squeeze tube with a twist off cap. The nib is fine and 2mm wide. The packaging has elements of green and brown to tie in with the organic line. It's defiantly durable and travel friendly. The cap has caused me some fussing when it hasn't twisted on evenly the first go. I like being able to cut the tube open to get every ounce of product out. Smell/Taste: None. Colour: White, blends out clear. Formula/ Texture: This is a thin and smooth lotion. It's easily applied and absorbed into the eye area without any greasy film or tackiness. The formula contains aloe vera, avocado, macadamia and rosehip oil meaning it's going to soothe, nourish and soften the eye area.  It defiantly hasn't caused any skin irritations or redness.  No sulphates, parabens, mineral oils, silicones, petrochemicals, synthetic fragrances or TEA's. The rosehip, olive, coconut and macadamia oils help reduce the appearance of fine li...

Benefit Benetint

Packaging: Small clear tube with white screw lid with brush tip applicator. Smell: None. Colour: Ruby red colour. Light coverage/ sheer pigmentation with a natural finish. On the cheeks it is a lot more sheered out and is more pink looking. Texture/ Formula: This is a quite runny and thin. It absorbs and sinks into the skin quite quickly. So it must be applied onto one cheek at a time, blending it immediately. This is my first tint so I had a hard time adjusting to the application method as I ended up with blotches of tint that no powder could fix. A small amount goes a long way. I do use my fingers to apply this and the blending is easier then a brush. This does leave a slight stain on my fingertips. It does have an amazing longevity of 12hrs+, which is what a tint is known for. This can be increased more topped with a powd...

Benefit They're Real! Mascara

I got this sample size from The Champions of Bronze kit. Packaging: Shiny gunmetal wand handle with a gunmetal tube. The wand as long plastic bristles with a spiked ball at the end of it. This ball utilises the end of the mascara wand and reaches into the smaller lashes in the inner corner of the eye. Smell: Just the usual mascara smell. Colour: Black. Opaque pigmentation. Formula/ Texture: This is more of a wet mascara but with a really thin scraper that doesn't leave any clumps of mascara on the wand. It's a thinner wand which made applying it easy. I wasn't going through my lashes trying to separate my lashes and then add volume then back to separating a clump. Theres no flaking or transferring. It's is easily removed with makeup wipes. I have average length lashes that have a very slight natural curl to them, so I want a mascara that does it all- volume, length and curl. I always curl my lashes before mascara applicati...
