Too Faced The Little Black Book of Bronzers - Bronzer Wardrobe

-

Packaging:
A5 sized sturdy cardboard palette that's back with a smooth matte finish. It opens from the left hand size like a book. The outside is decorated with a gold circle embellishment that adds touch of luxury similar to a little black dress which it gets its name.

The inside cover has one side with drawings of occasions & outfits to use each bronzer shade. The other side contains the bronzer pans in a colourful pinwheel pattern. Each pan is the same size (2.5g) and labelled.  Each bronzer full size is 10g/0.35oz.

Smell:
Only the soleil bronzers have a chocolate smell.

Colour:
Milk Chocolate Soleil - very light matte brown
Chocolate Soleil - light matte brown
Snow Bunny - pink with shimmer
Dark Chocolate Soleil - warm toned deep matte brown
Pink Leopard - rose with golden shimmer. More brown will deepen colour
Beach Bunny - light brown with golden shimmer
Endless Summer - medium satin brown
Sun Bunny - peach with shimmer

Medium pigmentation with buildable coverage.

Formula/ Texture:
This a finely milled powder with a buttery smooth texture. Each is lightweight on the skin, easily applied and blended into the skin. It's easily removed with a basic makeup wipe.

These have amazing longevity with an average of 12 hours on me without any primers/ setting sprays. The pigmentation on these powders is medium but defiantly buildable to suit.

Love how you get a taste of different bronzers in the one place with the ability to purchase a full size. It's defiantly a handy palette to have for bronzer fanatics, makeup artists and makeup collectors. You're actually getting a better value per gram in this palette. $3.60 per gram in the palette vs $4.40 per gram in the full size.

Available:
Only from Mecca Cosmetica, meccacosmetica.com.au for $65 for 18.1g/.64oz. Each bronzer full size is 10g/0.35oz for $44.

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...
