Inexpensive Eye and Lip Beauty: Rimmel Magnif’Eyes Colour Edition Eyeshadow Palette & Stay Matte Liquid Lip Colour Review + Swatches

Changing your makeup look doesn't have to cost a lot.

Rimmel London came out with some wonderful new additions to their line several months ago like the Colour Edition of the Magnif’Eyes Eyeshadow Palette and the Stay Matte Liquid Lip Colours.  I had reviewed the three original neutral palettes in an earlier post and really liked what they did for my eyes.  With that said, I couldn’t help myself and was determined to see what both would be like.

An Affordable Eyeshadow Palette With a Range of Color  and Possibilities

The Magni’Eyes Colour Edition Palette has 12 pans of eye-catching colors.  Three of the shades are more matte and the rest are quite shimmery.  

Inside this sleek, inexpensive palette, you get an amazing dual-ended applicator that you’re going to love.  It has one sponge-tip side and the other end is a brush, which is the perfect size for doing smaller areas like the corners of the eyes when making the V to smoke out.

Look at the vibrant range of 12 colors and all the beautiful eye possibilities at your disposal.

The palette is highly pigmented with a great range of color to play with that is suitable for all skin tones.  You can create a neutral eye, go bolder to all out glam easily with a sultry, smoky eye. 

The shadows don’t stir up a lot of dust, especially important if you have any sensitivity or allergies like mine.  These eyeshadows also blend beautifully and are ideally matched for coordinating lots of interesting looks when experimenting with the colors.

Long-lasting Formula that Can Keep Up With Your Day

I wore mine both with a primer and without a primer.  This palette does wear for hours without a primer.  I did not experience any crease problems, but it does hold up better for the longest wear when applying the primer.  The only thing that I noticed is if you’re going for an intense vibrant look, the eyeshadow stays put but the color lightens up somewhat.

The Magni’Eyes Colour Edition Palette is a fun and versatile eyeshadow set that gives you a lot of exciting choices to change your look according to the occasion or your mood without breaking the bank.  

Inexpensive Matte Liquid Lipsticks 

I also got to sample four of their Stay Matte Liquid Lip Colours with 100 Pink Bliss (warm pink-strawberry), 720 Mocha (medium nude), 110 Blush (dusty pink), and 210 Rose & Shine (rose-pink).  The pink range that was sent happens to be stunning and would suit all in my opinion.  The reasonable drugstore line has ten other shades available.  It also has a great doe-foot applicator that is the just right for shaping and filling in the lips without being too large, too small or awkward to work with.

Closest to my wrist and going down my arm is 100 Pink Bliss, 720 Mocha, 110 Blush, and ending with 210 Rose & Shine. 

The Formula 

The Stay Matte Liquid Lip Colour does stay on your lips for the most part through eating and drinking during a long day.  The only problem is you won’t have as much color on as you started with, but more of a stain.  

However, you aren’t forced to reapply.  Nonetheless, you probably will want to because of the dry feel on the lips after a while. Then again, this is common with many matte lip formulas.  To address that problem, I apply some lip balm and am good to go.

This formula takes effort to dislodge it with a makeup remover.  Washing with plain soap and water will not get this lip product to budge.

If you want trustworthy liquid lipstick coverage, you will like Rimmel’s Stay Matte Liquid Lip Colour for keeping up with you.  My advice is check this and the Magnif’Eyes Colour Edition Palette when you are in need of new affordable lip and eyeshadow.

Rimmel Insta Duo Contour Stick (001 Light) Review + Swatches

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

This makeup stick can reshape and emphasize facial features.

Contouring and highlighting products keep evolving in order to capture our attention and beauty dollars.  A good example is Rimmel’s Insta Duo Contour Stick that has both of those cosmetics in one convenient product.  

This line has three shades to choose from with 001 Light, 200 Medium and 300 Dark.  

Expect decent color payoff.

Being on the fair to light side, I opted for the Light shade.  The contour side is warm medium brown while the highlight is a champagne with an underlying pink color and subtle shimmer. 

This creamy highlight shade gives the skin a delicate glow.

The Formula of This Cosmetic Has Merit

Notice the beaming radiance coming from that pink cast of the highlight to the sunny bronze contour.

You got to love the creaminess of this formula for how well it blends.  I used a contour brush, but you can also use your fingers to apply and get great results.  

The formula also is light enough that your complexion can still breathe without that heaviness of thicker coverage.

Also, the highlight isn’t overly sparkly to spoil your complexion with obvious glitter. What you can expect is a softer, refined gleam of radiance wherever you place it.

Still, you got to appreciate the convenience of multitasking makeup like this that has two cosmetics of contour and highlight together in one.

The formula provides at least four hours of longevity when I tested it without a primer.  Priming first will surely prolong the wear time.  

A Well-Performing Cheap Contour Stick

For about $5.00 to $6.00, contouring and highlighting are easy to do without overspending.  In fact, you can buy all three shades to play with and still come out ahead compared to the cost of some higher end brands.  

If you’re just start to experiment with makeup, Rimmel’s Insta Duo Contour Stick is something that I’m sure you’ll love.  Check the line out at your local drugstores or wherever you shop for Rimmel Cosmetics or visit the company’s website.

Rouge Bunny Rouge Tinted Lip Balms Review + Swatches

On the left is Specks of Cherise with Sip of Pink on the right.

Winter weather can really do a number on the condition of our lips.  As a result, I am never without lipsticks, lip gloss and lip balms.  These are staples to add color as well as keeping my lips from drying out.  However, I had never tried any lip balms from luxury beauty brand, Rouge Bunny Rouge, until two of their Dazzling Sip Tinted Luxe Balms arrived.

Here I swatched both lip balms for you with Specks of Cherise (left) and Sip of Pink (right).

The line of three includes Sip of Pink (raspberry pink tone with some warmth to the shade), Specks of Cherise (deeper, but sheer berry-red on the order of crimson-red cherries) and Pinch of Nude (light beige nude with gold).  Each lip balm retails for $31.00.

These lip balms have a lip treatment, color and anti-aging skin care built into the formula. You may think this sounds pretty much what any lip balm promises.  I was of that opinion at first.  

Yet, this product has an Ecocert-approved active complex for hydration with sunflower oil among its other oils and waxes that does exceptional restoration for hurting lips while delivering flattering color in a lightweight formula. My lips felt smoothed, comforted and quenched for a longer period while staying beautiful without the feel of any heavy, waxiness to them. 

If you’re torn between lipstick to beautify and lip balm for its soothing moisture, then look no more because Rouge Bunny Rouge Tinted Lip Balms solve that problem. Check them out because this lip caring formula makes winter weather bearable again!  

Rouge Bunny Rouge Colour Burst Lipsticks (The Plot Thickens, Irreverence), Sheer Lipstick (Perfume of His Gaze) and Long-Lasting Lip Pencil (Roald) Review + Swatches!

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

Here I'm modeling Perfume of His Gaze Sheer Lipstick.

Summer is when we  take a break from too intense lip color and switch to lighter shades that can go well with our tans.  Therefore, I want to show you some beautiful lipsticks and liner choices from luxury beauty brand, Rouge Bunny Rouge, that can work some magic, especially this time of year to bring out your beauty.

The Colour Burst Lipsticks ($29) glide, depositing conditioning moisture from their special plant-based ingredient, Volulip and shea butter in a formula without parabens, which is nice to know when dryness can be a problem in some brands.  

This is the shade of Irreverence.

Irreverence is described on the company’s website as creamy natural rosy-pink.  Some pale colors can have a tendency to wash me out being I am fair to light.  However, this shade was a far superior pink-nude with the excellent balance of rosiness to offset the nude color.  It’s a perfect choice for me now, but the more bronzer I put on or sun that my complexion gets, the prettier this shade looks.

This one is The Plot Thicken Colour Burst Lipstick.

The second Colour Burst Lipstick I tried was The Plot Thickens.  It is a creamy pale rosy, nude-beige.  I found this one slightly too pale, having more baby pink and soft beige to make it work for my coloring.  It looked better when I added more color with a bronzer.  Yet, I think this particular shade would best compliment those with a medium and especially deeper complexions the most.  

The Sheer Lipstick ($29) is anti-aging and a moisturizing formula with hilurlip and rosehip butter that doesn’t bog lips down with heavy ingredients.  This formula has plenty of color, but it is not a thick, heavy appearing stain.  At the same time, it is not a see through color, but just nicely in between with its richness.

This is Perfume of His Gaze, which looks darker in the tube than on lips.

Perfume of His Gaze is a cool-toned rosy taupe that honestly will look good on all complexions, whether bronzed or not, all year round.  The rose, mauve and brown tones that compose this color are fascinating with depth without being dark in its many facets.

Starting on the left is The Plot Thickens, Perfume of His Gaze, Irreverence, and Roald lip pencil on the right.

I also tried Long-Lasting Lip Pencil ($24) in Roald.  This is a creamy formula that doesn’t tug when using it and does a wonderful job for outlining lips.  Roald is a light mauve that went well for these choices.

The Roald Lip Pencil is a versatile choice that you can't go wrong with.

If you’re looking to build upon your summer lipstick wardrobe, you might want to think about these Rouge Bunny Rouge lipsticks and lip pencil as choices!

Influenster Maybelline Great Lash Royal Blue Vox Box Review

*Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

Influenster Maybelline Great Lash Royal Blue Vox Box I received for testing purposes.

Great Lash mascara has been around for ages.  The reason it has such strength in the marketplace when new formulas and brands keep coming is because it really brings out the eyes without the need to spend a small fortune to do so.   However, I had never tried the new Royal Blue formula of that Maybelline mascara, only the black until Influenster sent it as a part of this latest campaign.

I have dark brown eyes and really love the effect of the vivid blue color for the flattering contrast it gives. The brush does seem a bit smaller than I cared for, but once you get used to it that brush does help separate lashes nicely.  

I also got to try their Unstoppable Automatic Pencil  701 Onyx eyeliner. This is a twist up type of smudge-proof liner that doesn’t need a separate sharpener to correct the tip in a black that does last for hours.  It glides on easily without tugging the skin.  It also is one that adjusting the thickness or thinness of the line is simple enough to do.

Have you tried these Maybelline eye products yet?  If not, find them at Walmart when you are shopping for some new makeup.

Age-Proof Your Look--Mally Beauty Face Defender BB Cream Foundation SPF 15 (Light) Review + Swatches!

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

In addition to skin care, you'll love the amount of coverage this Mally Face Defender BB Cream Foundation has!

The more you age, the more care that you’ll want to take with choosing the right foundation to suit your skin’s demanding needs.  If you intend to keep your complexion velvety smooth and flawless while protecting it from the elements, I found that a hard-working BB cream is a great way to go with all the benefits it offers, especially for older, dry complexions.

I always loved Mally Beauty’s foundations for their beautiful color matching and coverage, but never got around to trying their BB cream until the Mally Face Defender BB Cream Foundation SPF 15 (Light) arrived for this review.

This is a swatch of the Light shade of the Mally Face Defender BB Cream Foundation.

Though I tried quite a few products of this type, the Mally Beauty Face Defender BB Cream Foundation was one of the best. Besides how lightweight it felt, this oil-free formula melted and blended into the skin to perfect my complexion’s look, this BB cream had impressive coverage for how it doubled almost as a concealer.  

My tool of choice was a flat-top foundation brush for applying.  All I needed was squeezing a small amount and then dabbed a few spots on my forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin before buffing in a circular motion.

I got to say that my skin had a slightly dewy radiance without any caking into my fine creases or laugh lines. Furthermore, this product had the ability to keep my face looking fresh without the need to touch up with any face powder throughout the hours that I wore it. 

If you’re aging and want to do it gracefully or just want a foundation-like skin care product, which can protect, treat, moisture and still deliver great coverage, I can’t be more pleased with Mally Beauty Face Defender BB Cream Foundation Broad Spectrum SPF 15 ($40).  Check it out because it is one of my favorites!

Lipstick #295 and the #61 lipliner/crayon.

Making most of my lips is one of my top priorities. Besides color and finish, I also like a lubricating formula that keeps my lips comfortable and moisturized.  INGLOT Cosmetics High Gloss Lip Oils were certainly up to the task with plenty of oils such as jojoba, argan, apricot, cherry kernel, and alpine apple seed to shea butter and vitamin E to keep my lips happy for hours.

These High Gloss Lip Oils deliver plenty of shine and hydration.

Laura Geller Baked Balance-N-Brighten Color Correcting Foundations (Fair, Light) Review + Swatches!

Here is the Fair Baked Balance-N-Brighten before I tried it.

In order to have a great look, you need to start with a good foundation.  One that I am excited about is Laura Geller Baked Balance-N-Brighten Color Correcting Foundation that I recently discovered in a box of products that PR sent.

This is what the Light compact looks like fresh out of the box.

Laura Geller Delectables Cool Eye Shadow Palette Review

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

Laura Geller Delectables Cool Eye Shadow Palette 

Those that plan to roll in the New Year right with extra glam for the round of parties that I’m sure you’ll be attending know the importance of playing up their eyes. If you’re looking for some phenomenal color inspiration to be creative with gleaming metallic and matte shades, then you want to take a close look at Laura Geller’s Delectables Cool Eye Shadow Palette ($45) that PR kindly sent because this is what you need if you intend to stand out in a crowd.

There are two versions of these 14 doomed baked eye shadows with a Cool and Nude palette.  However, I couldn’t be more pleased with this more colorful choice for giving eyes vibrant jewel-like impact whether with sheen or matte finish.  

Here are the colors that await in this gorgeous set.  

Marble (ivory)
Slate (neutral beige)
Smoke (gray-brown with shimmer)
Frosting (golden brown with a shimmer)
Graphite (icy silver with a shimmer)
Midnight (black with a shimmer)
Blueberry (deep navy with a  shimmer)
Macaron (cream nude with a shimmer)
Candy (warm pink with a shimmer)
Bronze (espresso infused with gold)
Lilac (pink-plum with a shimmer)
Amethyst (violet with pearl)
Plum (blackened purple)
Carbon (rich black)

The texture of these shadows is silky soft that it is almost creamy when you brush the pigment on. Though as much as I love this baked formula, the double-sided brush included for application was less than ideal. 

The easiest way to catch the eye shadow with this brush is brushing gently back and forth instead of swirling.  You can always add more, but this technique works if you plan to stick with that brush or control the amount of pigment you lay down.   Another option is to simply pull out your other eye shadow brushes as well as your eye liner brush and take it from there because you can do both with this one palette.  

Using these shadows dry will provide more of a sheer look.  I also found that if you want your eyes to rock with strong color, then prime them first is the way to go.  Of course, you can deepen with water, but primer will extend the longevity of these shadows so you can stay beautiful all through the night.

After sampling this Laura Geller Delectable Eye Shadow Palette, I got to have the Nudes version.  What about you, have you tried these palettes yet?  Find them at Laura Geller, ULTA Beauty or QVC.com, but do find them!

Review + Swatches: Laura Geller Iconic Baked Sculpting Lipsticks - Ideal for Holiday Glamour!

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

Laura Geller

When you’re thinking how to up your appeal for those holiday parties, you need lip products that can go the distance if you want all eyes riveted to you.  With Laura Geller’s Iconic Baked Sculpting Lipsticks ($21), you can have your bases covered with coverage that can keep up with you through a long night.  These are gorgeous, well-pigmented shades that are complete with creamy feeling color from what I have observed.

From left to right:  Lexington Ave. Coral, Madison Ave. Pink, Big Apple Red, Fifth Ave. Ruby and ending with Tribecca Tan on the right.

PR graciously sent five of the twelve from this line for me to sample.  Madison Avenue Pink is flirty, bright fuchsia pink that has just enough of the violet in the pink to liven up the color wonderfully instead of being over the top bold on the lips.  Lexington Coral has striking tones of strawberry and orange for a bright, medium coral that can be universally flattering. Big Apple Red is a soft true red that is a classic for any woman’s makeup bag.  However, if you want to give your lips a more seductive edge to them, then you might prefer Fifth Ave. Ruby.  This is a deeper crimson red for full-out glamour.  Tribecca Tan is a medium, orange-beige nude that is great for every day with how neutral it is.  

Going from right to left is Lexington Ave, Coral, Madison Ave. Pink, Big Apple Red, Fifth Ave. Ruby and ending with Tribecca Tan on the left.

These lipsticks feature fancy patterned bullets and have a magnetic sort of closure for the cap.  Though those things are nice, they are not the reason why I like them.  The formula makes your lips feel comfortable with its almond oil, apricot butter and sunflower oil even after hours later when it starts to fade or you eat some off, your lips will still feel good while you’re left with more of a vivid stain.

I label it vivid because even when you try to remove it with water-rinsing makeup cleanser, it will doesn’t budge easily.  It took two applications before I could get rid of the color off of my arm.   Now that is what I call a long-wearing, but comfortable lipstick!

Head over to Laura Geller’s website, ULTA beauty or QVC. com and do look into the Iconic Baked Sculpting Lipsticks!

Review: VMV Hypoallergenics Cosmetics for Holiday Beauty Without Any Surprises!

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.** 

VMV Hypoallergenics Cosmetics 

VMV Hypoallergenics seal

Having allergies is no fun because you never know when something seemingly innocent as a product, food, environment or material can cause you problems.  A reaction to cosmetics that you have trusted and used for a long time can occur at any time with itching, swelling, redness, blotches or puffy eyes. However, your beauty stands a better chance when you have validated hypoallergenic cosmetics like VMV Hypoallergenics that passed vigorous trials of testing for common allergens.

Ooh-La-Lash Volumizing Mascara

My eyes have always been extra sensitive and can water, itch and turn red at times with certain mascara formulas. Therefore, I looked forward to the testing the Ooh-La-Lash! Volumizing Mascara ($23).  Made with a clay-like compound and iron oxide pigments, this variety I discovered was extremely gentle with tubules to coat the lash that later slips off when you wash the product away.  

I found the best method to build up the thickness was aiming to get as close to the lash line as possible before brushing upward and out. Two coats can take your lashes beyond amazing when going all out glam, but one coat was fine for every day for my needs.  It never clumped or left any black residue or rings around my eyes while I had it on either.

The Skin-The Bluff Concealer ($20) that arrived was in the line’s lightest shade of N1.  This is a pot of creamy pigment with a fantastic texture that has plenty of virgin coconut oil hydration.  The formula is not overly heavy but thicker than some similar under eye concealers.  It smooths without tugging on that delicate skin of the under eye area and does an excellent job covering even dark allergic shiners for as long as I had it on through the day.  The color looks darker in the container until you apply and start blending it. 

Skin-the-Bluff Concealer ( N1 )

Bringing out my brown eyes was done with a compact of their Two True Hues Eyeshadow Duo ($40) in Morning After.  This compact comes in a zippered, suede-like carrying case to store it and equipped with three brushes.  The shades in this matte powder are a dark cool brown and the other is deep plum-gray with a silky smooth consistency for easy blending when doing a smoky eye.  

Two True Hues Eyeshadow Duo in Morning After

For my cheeks, I got to sample a Skin Bloom Blush ($40) in Georgia (bright medium matte hot pink) that also has its own zippered suede-like pouch and small brush. The color was more sheer than heavily pigmented to leave a healthy, believable flush.

Skin Bloom Blush in Georgia  looks a peach color in this photo, but is is more of a vivid, bright pink.

Last of all, there was another Skin Bloom Blush among the products with their Luminous (dye-free) white highlight powder with some gleaming radiance for cheekbones, brow bone or wherever you want to redirect some becoming light.  This also came with the same sort of case, but no brush was inside.  

Going from left to right are the two Skin Bloom Blushes, first Luminous then Georgia with the Two True Hues Eyeshadow Duo shades in Morning After on the right.

To sum it up, if you are on the sensitive side why take unnecessary risks when there is a safer alternative with validated hypoallergenics products  like VMV Hypoallergenics to keep you beautiful?  

Review: Rimmel Brow This Way Brow Kits (Medium Brown and Dark Brown)

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

Rimmel Brow This Way Brow Kits 

Since brows are an important part of your face as they frame the eyes, you need them
perfectly groomed instead of unkempt if you intend to maximize your beauty potential.  Rimmel’s new Brow This Way Brow Kit, which I had a chance to sample offers a wonderful, inexpensive solution for brow maintenance.

PR sent me the medium brown and dark brown kits to try out. Inside each, you find a brow wax, brow shadow, spooley brush and double-ended angled brush.

Here is how I used it.  First, I took the spooley brush to comb my brows in shape first, then some of the tinted wax to set the shape. This brush, along with the wax, already started to whip my brows in shape. Next, I used the side of the angled brush to carefully add some powder to fill in some color where I needed.
  
The powder filled in sparse areas very nicely while lasting through the day.  I did find the dark-brown kit better suited my coloring with my umber brown brows than the medium brown.  

For $3.99, I liked how this Rimmel Brow This Way Brow Kit worked taming and beautifying my brows.  If you’re brows need a beauty boost, I suggest visit your drugstore or where you find Rimmel products and do pick one up.

Why You May Want to Switch Out Translucent Powder to Set Your Foundation

 You might have a more natural finish opting for a slight tint to that powder. 

I have always used translucent loose powder to set my foundation.  After all, it is meant to be colorless so not to distract from the color of the foundation that you use.  However, I also have noticed that some brands can leave your face paler than others with almost a ghostly cast once you’re through applying.  This can present a problem unless you want to keep on switching out brands.  

However, I have found a way around that little obstacle that I wanted to share. Instead of buying just a colorless translucent shade, I opted for a lightly tinted loose powder in its place.  By doing so, I get a much better finish without that unnatural paleness.  Furthermore, this slight amount of extra color does not do anything much to alter my original foundation color.

If you also have encountered this problem with your translucent powder, I hope you try this tip because a little color to that loose powder will give you a more natural look.

Review + Swatches: Amazing Cosmetics Amazing Concealers (Fair, Fair Golden), Cover and Contour on the Go Perfection Stick (Fair) and Concealer Brush

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**   

Amazing Cosmetics Amazing Concealer in Fair

A product that most of us can’t live without is concealer.  Since I heard a lot of great buzz about the ones from Amazing Cosmetics, I just had to see for myself  how well their Amazing Concealers and Perfection Stick covered, disguised and corrected what needed done on my face.

The company was kind enough to send me two different shades of their Little Amazing Concealer ($28) in Fair and Fair Golden.   This is a travel size .2 fl. oz., but they also have a larger .5 fl. oz. size ($42). However, I like this smaller tube because this full coverage, highly pigmented, waterproof concealer can go a long way before it will be used up.

Amazing Cosmetics Amazing Concealer in Fair Golden

The consistency of this product is not thick, but still creamy and somewhat liquid. Do shake the tube thoroughly before you attempt to squeeze some out to make sure it blends well. 

Amazing Cosmetics concealer brush is a quality tool for applying concealer, especially for hard to reach areas like under the eyes for doing a more thorough job.  

I was glad that they also supplied me with a concealer brush because this formula was ideal to paint under eye dark circles.  The size head of that brush made my application more precise as I patted a tiny dot of it in, especially when it came to getting the area near the bottom lashes and the corners of my eyes. 

The first swatch on the left is Amazing Concealer Fair Golden, then Fair and ending with the Perfection Stick (Fair) swatch.

All I needed was one coat of this concealer to banish my current darkness.  In its place, their formula managed to brighten as it hid and flawlessly blended into my natural skin color without settling into my creases over time.  I could wear either shade, but I prefer the lighter Fair color for how it suited my complexion.  There are 18 other shades available.

The Perfection Stick ($23) was something else I was fond of using for all the things this chubby pencil did to help beautify me.  I liked it for throwing in my handbag for bringing some light where I need it or to spot cover a skin problem or under eye darkness, if the occasion called for it when away from home. For heavy under eye darkness, you'll still want the Amazing Concealer because this is lighter and gives more of a brightening effect.  It was also great for playing with my lip line or to even out your skin tone.  This self-sharpening pencil comes in three other shades besides Fair that I selected.

Amazing Cosmetics Perfection Stick in Fair

I don’t know how I ever missed trying Amazing Cosmetics until now, but I’m glad that I finally tried a few of their products.  After my experience with their concealers, I do intend on looking into more of their products. Do check them out as well!

Have you tried Amazing Cosmetics yet and these concealers?
