Urban Decay Naked Skin Weightless Complete Coverage Concealer

-

Packaging:
Round & palm length tube. It features a gunmetal screw top handle with a flat thin but wide doe foot applicator. The bottom portion is clear which provides an accurate shade and amount indicator. It also has matching gunmetal text.

Smell/Taste:
None.

Colour:
Light Neutral - light with slight grey undertones. Full coverage with a satin finish.
Available in 8 shades.

Formula/ Texture:
This is a thin, smooth but not quite runny liquid. It glides on fluidly. It blends in seamlessly with a Beauty Bender or brush but quicker with the warmth of fingers. It is easily removed with a basic makeup wipe.

There is no cakiness, settling into fine lines, balling up of product, irritation and it doesn't break me out! A small amount is needed which is perfect bang for your buck and applied using the doe foot.. Using too much will cause it to cake. Although a setting powder isn't really needed as this sets relatively quickly.

It is extremely lightweight on the skin and buildable coverage. It conceals yet adds a touch of brightness lifting this area up without too over the top. Heavy dark circles may be able to just use this. As the formula leans more on the runny side, it doesn't dry out under the eyes. The longevity of this is amazing with 9hrs+ on me in warm weather.

I am in love with this stuff, honestly gives full coverage without the cakiness. Definitely perfect for everyone.

Available:
Only from Mecca Cosmetica stores, meccacosmetica.com.au for $36 for 3ml/0.36 fl.oz.

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...
