REVIEW & SWATCHES OF COLOURPOP SWEET TALK PALETTE



"Being an eyeshadow lover I must say COLOURPOP is one brand on which I am crushing nowadays...actually every time they launch any new palette I knew it they are going to be good quality.So I started buying but at some point, I stopped buying because few shades in all palettes started to be repetitive and that is a big reason that I had to stop buying colourpop palette one after another. But my no-buy turn must buy when I see "SWEET TALK " palette".

SPRING COLLECTION OF COLOURPOP:-
"Gear up for Spring with our latest collection! Includes the dreamy coral Sweet Talk Shadow Palette (includes a brand new formula!), 6 new Super Shock Blushes, 6 new Lux Lipsticks, and 6 new Jelly Much Shadows."

SWEET TALK PALETTE 



Price:- $18
Available:- https://colourpop.com/products/sweet-talk
NOT AVAILABLE IN INDIA
Instagram seller:- I bought from Instagram seller "@allaboutcosmetics" at Rs.1850/- approx.

SHADE DESCRIPTION:

  • Catch Me: matte pastel peach
  • Side2Side: warm champagne with silver and pink glitter
  • Garden Date: metallic coral with a gold sheen
  • Work It: soft matte yellow orange
  • Prima Drama: pale rose gold glitter with a copper and gold duochrome shift
  • Meadow: matte true coral
  • Early Mornin’: marigold glitter
  • Dream Maker: matte soft coral
  • ICYMI: matte dirty terracotta
  • Melody: metallic rose with a gold flip
  • West Side: matte camel
  • Feel Free: rich matte bordeaux

PACKAGING:-



The 12 EYESHADOW PALETTE has full spring vibes. The coral vibes in the palette are something very different that I don't have in my stash till now. The flower print in the palette is really cute and that makes the palette really special. It has no mirror in it and so the inner part of palette lid is also printed with flowers.

MY EXPERIENCE:-

The palette is different than other palettes till now as they have some new formula eye shadows in this palette. They have 4 different formulas in this palette. The star of the show is brand new Pressed Glitters! Self-adhering, insanely sparkly, these babies will bring on the glam.  Next is Super Shock Shadow for the first time ever. And Pressed Powder Shadow in matte and metallic finishes. The pigmentation of all 4 formulas is really good. The glitters are pressed on glitters and you don't need an additional adhesive to apply it on the lid. They are that good. Rest of the eye shadows are super pigmented. There are almost no fallouts. 


Overall a perfect coral palette that is must have for eyeshadow lover.










So that's all for today. See you in my next post.

REVIEW & SWATCHES COLOURPOP OOH LA LA PALETTE



A girl can't reject "PINK"...a color that was a symbol of strength at an early age which is now turned as "girl's color".Colourpop palette "OOH LA LA" is based on the theme "PINK".

OOH LA LA PALETTE:-


PRICE:- $12
AVAILABLE:- https://colourpop.com/products/ooh-la-la
NOT AVAILABLE IN INDIA
INSTAGRAM SELLER PRICE:- RS.1350/- TO RS.1550/- APPROX.
"I bought from @allaboutcosmetics Instagram seller page".

You're like really pretty... So you agree, you think this pink 9-pan palette is really pretty! Includes a mix of matte, metallic, and satin shadows, this palette is your go-to for the trendiest pink looks right now.

SHADE DESCRIPTION:-

  • Tickled: soft opalescent pink with violet, pink, & blue glitter flip
  • Soft Core: matte warm pink
  • Poodle: matte vibrant true pink
  • Big Sugar: bright bubblegum pink with a silver sheen
  • Opulent: bright fuchsia with a blue sheen
  • Sandbar: matte neon pink
  • Trove: matte raspberry
  • Caddy: vibrant deep violet
  • Moon Struck: metallic peachy gold

A 9 pan eyeshadow palette which is small(bigger than Huda beauty obsession palette), sleek and have a mirror in it is just perfect while traveling. A pinky palette which is based on color "pink" is really cute in packaging. The outer color of the palette is pink.

The 9 eyeshadows in this palette have mixed finishes of mattes and metallics. The shade "TICKLED" is prone to breakage and that's why you can see it is broke and fixed by me. It is one of the best shade in this palette. There are few neon shades in this palette which are super pigmented and stain my eyelids to some extent too. The rest of the eyeshadows in this palette are also super pigmented and there are hardly any fallouts in them.

Overall a perfect "PINK" theme palette for all pink lovers.





So that's all for today. See you in my next post.

REVIEW & SWATCHES OF MAC LIPSTICK MOXIE


Today's post is all about MAC LIPSTICK "MOXIE".

PRICE:- RS.1650/-
NOT LAUNCHED IN INDIA

 MAC LIPSTICK "MOXIE" is a fuchsia shade with subtle cool undertone. But on me, it looks like warm undertone. I was looking for this lipstick from years (the very first time I started buying mac) and finally, I got it that too is FREE.


Yes, there was some offer going on MAC USA SITE where if you buy MAC HOLIDAY RUBY WOO SET you will get this lipstick MOXIE free. So I avail this offer and grab it from abroad through an Instagram seller.


The lipstick is matte in finish and it is a beautiful pink shade which will look good in all complexion. The pigmentation of this lipstick is awesome. One swipe and you are done. The lipstick stays pretty 7-8 hours on my lips. 


The packaging of this lipstick is like regular mac lipstick packaging but the lipstick is awesome.


***The lipstick is limited edition and it is sold out from everywhere. Although a few days back Nykaa was giving MOXIE free when you shop an amount of Rs.3000 from Mac cosmetics. So keep your eyes open you never know...











So that's all for today. See you in my next post.

REVIEW OF PLUM GOODNESS BRIGHT YEARS- AGE SPECIALISTS RANGE


New launches in Skincare never excites me and so whenever any brands coming out with skincare products one after another I hardly buy and try.
Because skin care is something in which I trust only a few brands, among which one brand is
PLUM GOODNESS.



FEW OF MY VIDEO FROM PLUM GOODNESS ARE BELOW:-


Today I am here to review another bunch of new launches of skincare from PLUM GOODNESS and it is their BRIGHT YEARS-AGE SPECIALISTS RANGE.

"Specialist skincare designed for ageing skin. Loaded with powerhouse botanical actives like plant stem cells, amino acids, and AHAs. Smartly formulated at the goodness labs."




Among the entire range, I picked up the following:-

  • Bright Years All-Day Defence Cream SPF 45 | PA+++
  • Bright Years Under-Eye Recovery Gel
  • Bright Years Restorative Overnight Creme

Bright Years All-Day Defence Cream SPF 45 | PA+++:-

 
Price:- RS.875/-
Available:- https://plumgoodness.com/collections/bright-years-age-specialists/products/bright-years-all-day-defence-cream-spf-45-pa



The all-day cream comes in a pump bottle for which it is very handy and easy to carry anywhere. The cream is little thick in texture for which you need only one tiny drop for your entire face. The cream creates a light white cast on your face making it look brighter. Now, this factor will work great on people who match their skin tone with the cream (I mean fair people) whereas wheatish or little dark complexion can see a white cast on their face if they use this cream. Now, this white cast may vary from person to person. If you sweat a lot it will vanish fast but if you don't sweat a lot then get ready to deal with that white cast. On my skin, it feels like brighten up my skin tone as I match with the cream (luckily). It is non-greasy and easily absorbed in the skin. Perfect for dry skin people. Nothing special about this cream. All I can say it suits my skin as I don't breakout while using it.



Bright Years Under-Eye Recovery Gel

Price:- Rs.925/- for 15ml (it is quite expensive)
Available:- https://plumgoodness.com/collections/bright-years-age-specialists/products/bright-years-under-eye-recovery-gel


The under eye cream comes in a small pump bottle which stopped working from the second day of my use. Next, the cream is light in texture and it is light pink in color. The cream is actually gel based kind of formula for which it is easily absorbed in my skin creating a smooth under area instantly. So this cream can act as pre moisturizing of under eye area before makeup. But again I can't see any huge change even after using the entire bottle. So definitely it doesn't work the way I wanted. The folds/wrinkles under my eyes are still enjoying the summer!





Bright Years Restorative Overnight Creme:-

 
Price:- Rs.1125/-
Available:- https://plumgoodness.com/collections/bright-years-age-specialists/products/bright-years-restorative-overnight-creme

The cream is light pink in color and very light in texture. One just needs one tiny drop of this cream for the entire face. If you apply more you might end up looking like a greasy pan. Anyways the cream is quite moisturizing. But I haven't seen any drastic change in my skin after using it for two months. Although I don't have any skin problems except dryness which is sorted well by this cream. Otherwise, if you expecting some miracle from it then don't buy it.




Overall the entire range is a hit and miss kind off for my skin and so am really confused with this range. I was expecting a lot from Plum after their awesome hair care range but I left with disappointment. Thus leaving my honest review for you all to decide.

So that's all for today, see you in my next post.

REVIEW & SWATCHES OF MAC LIPSTICK "HOT LIKE SALSA"



"Going back to old blogging days are not easy now. Being busy always with youtube channel nowadays I hardly get time to sit down and write. So from now on my reviews will be short and simple as people hardly read blogs nowadays as they are more interested in watching videos. And few visit blog just for swatches (which I love to click). My addiction to product photography will remain to continue in my blog with a little bit of write up about it :)"

Today's post is all about MAC LIPSTICK "HOT LIKE SALSA".

PRICE:-RS.1650/- for 3g.
AVAILABLE:- MYNTRA.
NOT LAUNCHED IN INDIA

 MAC LIPSTICK "HOT LIKE SALSA" is a neutral red matte lipstick with a pearl finish. The lipstick is medium pigmented. As it has pearl finish so it bleeds a bit. The feathering of lipstick can be controlled with a lip liner. The finish of this lipstick is little slippery so pressing a bit more than usual might melt the lipstick on your lips. The lipstick stays pretty 5-6 hours on my lips and with lipliner, it stays almost 7-8 hours on my lips with little fading if I eat or drink anything.

And yes did I told you that  MAC LIPSTICK "HOT LIKE SALSA" is the closest dupe of MAC PARTY PARROT... well, yes. So if you want to grab it you can have it from Myntra, they still have it.
