My Faces Bright Brillance Brillos Eye Kit : Review

Sorry for not posting anything for a real long time... my work and lil one are keeping me busy :)
I love Eyemakeup  Period ... Do I need to say more ??

I seriously don't even remember where i purchased this kit ...Thanks to my memory....Never mind that.. Thank god i bought it

Because it has some really good products worth every penny i would say...
Ok coming to the Kit now

Price : Rs. 999
 I got it at 15% discount



The following products are there in the kit :

1) Eyeshadow Palette
2) Mascara
3) Eye pencil
4) Duo Brow wax
5) Metallic Glow Eye Primer

Product wise Opinion:

Worst Product first : I hate that Eye Pencil... Seriously its not even worth mentioning ...I am using it as a normal pencil

Mascara is good...but the lengthening hmmm...Not at all... But it gives the perfect separate lashes-Non -clumpy-(  is that a word)?

Duo Brow wax.... I am soo loving it... its perfect... it has the perfect brown powder(Pressed) and wax... But the real con is no applicator...


Eyeshadow Palette ... Vibrant colors..but fallout is kinda ok but the colours show up with a primer
It has Purple, Green, Golden yellow, Blue and Maroon(brownish)... travel friendly and absolutely useless sponge applicators :P

Here comes the Best Part ...The Metallic Eye Primer :
This is the bestest primer I have used so far... Perfect even the worst eyeshadows showup...it gives that lovely glow...Iam LOVING IT :)

Overall Opinion :

Good product for the price we pay

Also travel friendly

Except for the so called EYE pencil.

Will do the swatches in another post :)

Do you have any makeup kits similar to this ? share it :)

Love,

Bodyography Foundation Primer Clear - Review & Swatch

I am oily skinned during summers and have a dry patchy skin during winters(just for a month or two)...
Ok during summers whatever great foundation i use...i have this issue of oxidised foundation thingy...leaving my face dark and looking like a i have purposely wanted to give a tanned look..grrrr

I wanted a primer but wasn't sure because of my beautiful combination skin....:p
So when i was browsing through HealthKart.com i saw this Bodyography Foundation primer ...It was in two sizes...one a full size  and this one a 15ml ..trial size i guess
This is used by professional makeup artists..:)



So here goes
Price : Rs.375 for 15ml (pretty pricey haaww)


Product Claims:

Since its release, Veil Foundation Primer has become one of our most popular products. With anti-oxidants, vitamins A and E, Green Tea and Grape Seed extract, this weightless oil-free primer fills in fine lines and wrinkles, prevents collagen breakdown and gives the skin a silky smooth, long lasting, flawless base.

In response to the requests of many makeup artist, Veil Foundation Primer is now available in the original clear, bronzing and shimmer formulas, and 3 color correcting formulas.

  • Extends wear of foundation
  • Won't irritate sensitive skin
  • Over time, aides in evening out skin tone



    Swatch


    Pros :
    Smooth as butter
    easy application
    does reduce my pore size
    oil free so good for oily skinned 
    very little foundation is required when we use on top of this primer
    makeup stays put for atleast 5hrs or so
    my skin feels hydrated throughout
    very little quantity is required..just a peanut size
    available in many variants
    did not break me out

    Cons:
    Price is too much for 15ml product
    Contains Silicones.


    So overall this is a very good primer...but a pricey one though..
    So which is your favourite primer?
    Love,
    Varshini
