My fashion expression brings me enjoyment!

Maybelline Color Tattoo - Painted Purple

img_6577.jpg

I know I have done this review before for the Tenacious Teal here but I really liked the purple and decided to make the purchase since Chemist Warehouse had it on special for $7.77.

 

This is a rich vibrant colour and really pops when you apply it your your eyelids. Now, what I decided to do was test it out 2 ways. One way was to go by the instructions as detailed instore on the display - dot the colour on your eyelid and blend out. This was the result:

I found that the colour was really light when dabbing it on. Not as light as lilac but more of a darker lavender colour. Sorry if this pic is blurry! The second way I decided to test was with an eye shadow brush made especially for cream eye shadows. This was the result:

By using the brush, you can see a deeper tone and it is much bolder to wear it this way. I would personally blend this with other colours as I do not like wearing just the one colour and the tutorial on the Maybelline website found here shows you a dramatic look using 4 different colours.

I only wanted to show the colours to you so you have an idea of what it looks like. I am not that fancy when it comes to doing eye make-up and the pictures are not the usual way I would wear it either :)

The colour of the eye shadow does not come out as how dark as it looks. That's not to say you can't blend this with other colours to get the exact shade you see in the picture. Remember, it has 24 hour wear so it's long lasting and also does not leave those dodgy crease marks into your eye lids. The idea of this eye shadow cream is that it's easy to wear with no hassles with it rubbing off or fading.

I would wear this colour with a hot pink lipstick or translucent pink lipgloss. It would also work well with red lips or blue if you're game enough. I can also see this working well with neon clothing. Some bright yellow and purple eyes would work a beaut!

Testing out Sukin Hair Care

Over here in Australia, all I see is a brand named Sukin. Sukin lotion, Sukin shampoo, Sukin night cream, Sukin Sukin Sukin.

So I decided to test out this moisture restoring shampoo and conditioner.

I have been testing these products for at least 2 months.

The reason why I tried out this product is because it is an Australian owned company and is organic. They are carbon neutral, environmentally friendly in the packaging and are free of animal testing or use of any by-products derived from animals.

I do not remember the pricing on these products but remember it being around $10 each. The claim is that it detangles hair and contains moisture enriching products to restore dry/damaged hair and leave your hair silky smooth. I can honestly say that this has not worked for me. My hair still feels dry and tangles all the time. This is not to say that it wouldn't work for someone else but in my own personal experience, I can safely say I will not be buying this particular product again.

I bought this product purely out of interest. I also made in my purchase some rosehip oil and I am still in the process of testing this out on the scarring of my face.

Overall, I say use the product if you want to support natural products free of harm to animals and the environment. Results may not be what you want them to be, but at least you know you have purchased a product that is not cruel to the environment.

Rimmel Match Perfection Blush - Medium

Now for Rimmel Blush :)

This was another purchase at Chemist Warehouse and it cost $9.72 down from $14.95. I never used to wear blush but now kind of have an obsession with it.

What I like about this shade is that it gives natural finish with a healthy glow. Because of the tri-coloured palette, it is easy enough to blend out a shade that suits your taste as well as skin tone. I believe it's versatile in this way.

Here is a pic of my testing out of the product:

I like to go with a rosey colour on my skin. In this photo, I tried hard to get as much colour on so that you could see it in the picture. I usually wear blush when I look dull to liven up my face.

I thought I made a good purchase in this Medium palette. I am not a brown blush user, so the only reviews I would do are all the shades of pink, reds or corals. More blush reviews coming up soon.

Sportsgirl Lighten Up - Berrylicious

img_6393.jpg

So the week before my birthday, I bought a lot of bits and bobs from all over the place and now am getting a chance (or more so remembering) to blog about them.

Here is Sportsgirl's Lighten Up Berrylicious lipgloss.

Why did I buy this? I bought it because it had a light and mirror on it. That is really the reason. Here a picture of where the light sits:

Perfect for anywhere and can be worn during the day and night.

The colour is right up my alley with pink sparkles mixed in with hot pink and a purple tinge. I wear it during the day and wore it on the night of my birthday. It spreads on evenly and does not have a gluggy, sticky feeling. It feels so light on the lips and has a polished finish that makes it easy to wear. It has a natural feeling when worn and does not dry out. The only time you need to re-apply is after you've had a drink or eaten.

When I wear it, it smells like rainbow paddle pop. For those that don't know what that is, it's an icecream with this yummy creamy, bubblegum flavour.

I actually haven't had a paddle pop in years but remember the distinct taste and this is the healthier way for me to enjoy the aromas without eating junk :)

I bought this lipgloss for $4.95 on sale but this normally costs $9.95. Because this is a past season item, the new lipgloss colours and range are on their website here - you will need to click on "beauty" and "lips" as it does not directly create a link for some reason.

I recommend this product to anyone because it's not too bright and for me, pink goes with everything! It doesn't draw away attention to other parts of your make-up or outfit that you may be wearing and brings a bit of colour into your face as well.
