Urban Decay Naked Skin Color Correcting Fluid Concealers

-

Packaging:
These come in a silver cardboard box with black text. The plastic tube is round & palm length. It features a silver 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 has black text, the same as the box.

This is the fact same packaging as the weightless concealer with the light grey/silver the only colour difference.

Smell/Taste:
None.

Colour:
Pink - Brightens dark areas
Peach - Masks dark circles/spots
Medium to full coverage with a satin finish. Available in 5 colours

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

The longevity of this is amazing with 10hrs+ on me in warm weather. The formula contains Vitamin C + E to condition and protect the skin. Skin imperfections or concerns are blurred and corrected and all day too. I didn't expect it so much from how thin the product is. The subtle pearlescent pigments not make the skin look so flat.

There is no cakiness, settling into fine lines, balling up of product, irritation, it doesn't break me out or dry my skin! 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. This is designed to sit under foundation but I've used it on top and blend out with my finger before concealer with the same effect.

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

Available:
From Mecca Cosmetica, mecca.com.au for $46 for 6.2g/0.21oz. I got mine in America from Sephora for US$28.

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...
