Saturday's Mail: Sassy Minerals

I really liked Sassy Minerals! They answer to the emails, send products quickly , I was more than happy to receive their samples for a review , my order was dispatched on Jan 23 and i received it on Jan 30 ,keeping in mind the distance of both countries , its super fast.Sassy ship to many countries including the Pakistan.
 
 My order arrived in a bubble mailer.  Inside the little jars where all in a little produce type net tied with a ribbon.  
with a handwritten thank you note(sweet isn't it?) 

I am so glad i mean its so nice that they come in a jar! i hate the little baggies*No offense*. There seems to be about 1/8tsp in each jar, seems pretty good amount for samples

E.L.F Prime Plum Lipctick( not so plum)


I am not a brand slave when it comes to beauty esp makeup, there are so many brands to explore and try, I do believe in quality though NO COMPROMISE on tis one. I got so many lipglosses and lipstick that its hard to tell which one is my favorite .. i heart all my lippies .
Okay so i am going to blog about eyes lips face lipstick in prime plum today.I love the formula and the consistency of E.l.f lipstick line, it just glides on so smoothly on to the lips with its perfect color pay off. Also, it is long lasting
The packaging looks very professional, it's a sleek black, very sturdy with Elf's logo imprinted on the side. You might want to prime and moisturizer your lips first for more moisture.
So let me break it down for you
Prime Plum ..Plum? More like brown..it is fairly dark and a little brown. It's a nice cool color I would wear under brighter glosses. The coverage is medium, heavier coverage with more layers to make it really dark. This one is very pigmented and very brown (YES!! brown Not Plum)



Where to buy and Price of Product~
You can purchase it off ELF's site eyeslipsface for a barging price of £3.50 you can pay a lot more than that for a mineral lipstick.



Ladies, if you ever get a chance to get your hands on one of these beauties, go and get them  the shades are beautiful and perfect for work, school, date, etc and they are super affordable cruelty free .


Which is your Favourite Eyeslipsface (E.L.F) lippie shade? Any recommendations??

Orglamix Mineral Eyeshadow Review & Giveaway anouncement

Yesterday  i was in such a gloomy and not-so-happy mood, if you follow me on twitter you would know and if you don't.. FOLLOW ME ;) i was down and nothing made me happy until Got mail!!

Cheri over at Orglamix was kind enough to send me some samples of her eyeshadows to review.



I received 3 awesome colors of Orglamix mineral makeup in my mail.I couldn't wait. I opened them immediately., package arrived in a bubble mailer sound and safely ,Inside my shadows were bundled together in a cute black organza bag. with a thank you note and three petals, they have some sort of perfume on them,and OH MY GOD they smelled divine, i lurved it and mom couldn't stop her self from smelling them :D





Mocha:Lush, rich and gorgeous-- this decadent reddish chocolate kind of  brown has a sumptuous golden sheen.
Cafe Au lait:I love this for a brow highlighter or shadow, beautiful shimmery color almost warm vanilla !  it's a gold-ish bone color and I just love it. Absolutely stunning
Cardamom: I adore this colour. It's a lovely subtle earthy shade that helps to contour the eye .its like a brown taupe with hint of green shimmer.absolute gorgeous




 
(Applied Dry** look at the shimmer.*pure love)


(Applied Wet and they look more divine this way)

All the eye shadows I received have great staying power, are super soft.Orglamix eyeshadow are highly pigmented and  i found them easy-blending,The eyeshadow  are finer in texture .I enjoyed the colours that I was given  and I really liked using them, my main concern regarding loose eyeshadows is fall out, i was pleased that with orglamix eyeshadows, i had no such issue.

Chanel : Levres Scintillantes Glossimer in Mica


From Chanel:

"CELESTIAL SHIMMER: Discover a mesmerizing lip colour collection inspired by Mademoiselle Chanel's fascination with the constellations. Eight exquisite new shades of Levres Scintillantes Glossimer bring a brilliant reflection of light to the lips."

This collection includes:

TOP ROW (left to right): Meteore, Venus, Silex & Mirage

BOTTOM ROW (left to right): Cosmos, Jupiter, Nebula & Mica

 
(google image)
My dad and brother travels alot , last summer they visited singapore and they bought me some Chanel makeup,
One of them was Chanel Levres Scintillantes Glossimer in Mica
 Of course I fell in love with all of them! These pictures didn’t capture the glitteriness of them
mica is almost a pure sheer with glitter. It has a pale pink base with purple and pink sparkles. This lip gloss is not sticky or drying to the lips. I love the pigmentation, consistency and staying power. It looks beautiful alone, and over a lipstick. , i usually wear it over a lipstick to give it that extra umpf

 


(look at the beautiful sparkle)
 I never expected to see it show so nice on my already pigmented lips,to my surprise it looked great, On my lips it is slightly colorless, but light hits my lips  the iridescence adds a beautiful dimension of sparkle. This is one very gorgeous and unique gloss., its perfect if you want something really pretty, not too loud, but not blah. It makes my lips glimmer and shine. It basically gives me the "wet look.



Have you tried any of Chanel  Levres Scintillantes Glossimer ?? if Yes what is your favorite one ? if Not i highly recommend it.
