MAC Pro Longwear Concealer -Review ,Photos and Swatches

When my dad was going to his trip to Dubai in February , i knew what i wanted  ,and he bought exactly what i asked him . Check out what he got me in this post [Here]

 

MAC Pro Longwear Concealer : A lightweight fluid concealer that provides medium to full coverage with a comfortable, natural matte finish. Colour-true formula lasts up to 15 hours. Helps conceal and correct the look of under-eye circles, and discolorations. Comes in a clear glass vial with a matte black pump.

Price : $16.50


I knew i wanted this since i saw the promo images back in 2010 . Sadel it isnt available in Pakistan  so i had to wait for someone from my family to make a trip abroad. I have combination skin and weather in Pakistan is mostly warm/humid and my makeup wears off easily. This concealer was released with MAC prolong wear foundation which i am sure i will get next time.

I got the shade NC35 . With The MAC Pro Longwear Concealer you only need a little.Its very pigmented .Yes a little goes a long way. The texture of the concealer is creamy and of course liquid. It blends out easily and amazingly . But when applying this concealer you have to work quickly as this starts drying it will become thicker and harder to blend. It gives medium to full coverage. 



I bought it to use for my blemishes instead of using it for under eyes concealer. I love my Bobbi brown concealer for under eyes.  I used it couple of times under my eyes and i feel it sinks into my fine lines there. I use it around my cheeks where i need more coverage. I love it because it doesn't feel drying on skin . The concealer lasts ages.  my makeup vanishes mysteriously during the day but this stayed forever.It doesn't turn ashy on me and doesn't crease.



The MAC Pro Longwear Concealer comes in 9ml / .30flz which is clearly mentioned on the concealer bottle.  I love the fact that it comes with a pump.The pump is little stiff so I    usually pump some into a sample container so I don't waste too much .Over all packaging wise its really easier to use.

Sleek Makeup Storm i-Divine Palette - Review , Photos & Swatches


What it is : Sleek makeup website says :The Storm i-Divine palette comprises of 12 strong and rich shades perfect for accentuating the eyes and creating natural looks. The velvet-touch consistency gives full and shimmering coverage to the eye lid for maximum effect. Each shade can be applied alone for a dramatic effect or mixed to create a personalised look. Best applied with the applicator enclosed.

The sleek makeup I divine eyeshadow palette in storm comes in black compact. The compact is small and sturdy . It comes with a high quality big mirror , Perfect to bring with you on holiday or travel.










The Storm palette comes with a mix of neutral and very deep shades.It's perfect for creating neutral looks ,& It's also perfect for creating smokey looks.A very versatile palette in my opinion .
The sleek makeup storm palettes has some of the most amazing quality eyeshadows. No wonder they are everyone's favorite brand for giving great products for reasonable prices.



The eyeshadows are highly pigmented and glide on super easy. They blend so easily as well. This palette has 9 richly pigmented shimmers  and 3 mattes .The shimmer shades have an almost metallic finish to them.






The palettes has the mentioned below shades
Top row to bottom (L-R)


  •  a shimmery browny beige
  •  a very light shimmery beige excellent to be used as an highlighter 
  •  a matt light brown
  •  a shimmery gold
  •  a shimmery salmon/pink 
  • a shimmery cranberry colour 
  • a shimmery bronze brown
  • a shimmery steel colour 
  • a shimmery stormy green
  • a shimmery blue 
  • a dark matt brown
  • a matt black 
 






The matt eyeshadows in this palettes has not as intense pigmentation as the darker shades and the light brown matte in the top row doesn't have great pigmentation so i prefer using it as a  blending or transitional shade . Some of the darker eyeshadows have a bit of fall out . 


This is the look i created with some of y new sleek makeup products. Check out the whole list of products and other breath taking pictures [here
