Think Pink blush

 Hello,

It is Essence Soft Baked blush in the color option Think Pink. What attracted me was the super glow of this blush, I had to scout for it to finally find it in one of the stores.

Shade is vivid, quite bright, raspberry juicy shade. Particles are very small and part of the pigment, I love that the glow is cool toned since gold is too obvious on my skin tone.

First swatch is made with only two layers, it is very pigmented and bold, second swatch is blended out with remains on my tips and it showcases how I wear it on my face. I lightly touch my brush against the product, tap the excess and swipe it over my cheeks. I love the glow it gives and a hint of pink.

This blush is one of the more fun ones in my make-up collection. I like to reach for it when I want a light flush with plenty of glow, contrary to what it looks like on the first swatch or in the pan. I like that it is buildable and blendable. There is one negative thing and after wearing it for a few hours in this extreme heat it can make my skin texture more visible. I try to use little amount and I feel like it is not as bad as the first time I tried it (when I applied a bit too much).

Now when I wear it I am just careful not to apply too much and it is fine :)

Birchleaf Peach, Peachy Aqua and Cardamom

 Hello,

I recently made a big purchase of FlowerKnows products, obviously I had to put some of these glossy lipsticks into my basket as well.

I picked up FlowerKnows Butterfly Cloud Collar Collection Glossy Lipsticks in Birchleaf Peach, Peachy Aqua and Cardamom. Each lipstick holds 3,5 g of product.

Packaging is very heavy and details on each tube are exceptional.  There is some scent present but very faint, it reminds me of Caramel the most.

Honestly, when I opened these up shades surprised me a lot because they all look very different from promo photos.

First is Birchleaf Peach and it is more burnt orange than peach to me, I can sheer it out but warmth remains.

In the middle is Peachy Aqua, very bright and cool toned vivid pink shade. I see no peach. This shade is more up my alley and I wear it more often than the previous shade.

Last is Cardamom and it reminds me of dried rose shade. This one surprisingly looks amazing on me and it slowly became my favorite. It seems to match my natural color the most and I like that. It makes my lips more even and glossy.

The shine on these is amazing, I think these are the glossiest lipsticks that I have tried. High shine last for about 1h 20 min and then it starts fading. Around 2h mark the formula gets a bit sticky. While it is shiny it is smooth like butter, when it starts drying it changes. There is slight stick to it, I find it a bit annoying but it does not upset me that much to prevent me from wearing them.

Packaging is beautiful, and I had semi luck with these shades. I can tell that Birchleaf Peach will get the least wear, Peachy Aqua will look amazing in the scorching Summer and Cardamom is my everyday lip. Formula is amazing, just what I like about, if they would fix the slight stick they would be perfect.

Malibu

 Hello,

I picked another gloss balm from Unleasha, I really like my first shade but that one is very bright so I thought that I will pick lighter shade for everyday wear.

I picked Unleashia Sunset Dazzle Gloss Balm in the shade Malibu. It looked like a soft pink shade, something I could wear daily and apply without a mirror.

Donut applicators still surprise me but application is pretty easy despite big round silicone. 

Scent is slight, leans toward the green apple territory and there is no taste.

Shade is surprisingly vivid and pigmented (not really if I compare it with Ibiza, my first shade) but I honestly thought that this one would be more sheer. Pigment is there and I just have to make sure that I apply thin coat of it to avoid having too much color on my lips.

This pigment never settles into my fine lines and I love that. It is very hydrating and keeps my lips nourished all day long. The shine lasts a little over one hour.

I really like Unleashia lip balm formula and there is cool toned lavender shade named Budapest which makes my heart skip a beat but I can't find it, it is exclusive to some countries that I have no access to. There are some muted shades available as well and I have two or three also on my list but lavender one is the one that is calling my name.

Big shopping spree no. 5

 Hello,

another post on one of my largest packages. This one includes also some free gifts with purchase.

On top there is Colorgram Fruity Glass Tint in Pink Gloss. This one isn't really a tint but a clear gloss with sparkles. They recommend to use it over tints for that extra shine and I fell for it since the stacked candy as a lid sucked me into thinking I don't have enough lip glosses.

Silver stick is About Tone Blur Lasting Stick Primer. I watched someone over youtube using it and make-up looked really pretty and it was on sale so I decided to test it myself to see if it will do the same for me.

Two chic tubes are Hince Mood Enhancers Lip Glows in Dear Rose and Chill Out. Honestly their whole campaign looks so nice. Models are wearing barely there base and a hint of make-up on their lips and it looks very nice. I wanted to recreate that feeling with these tow sticks. Hopefully they are aslo nourishing lip balms not just tinted sticks.

On the bottom there are three freebies, they are Unleashia Shaper Defining Eyebrow Pencil in Taupe Gray, Oatmeal Brown and Kraft Brown. I was not able to choose colors and since my brows are black I think only Taupe Gray will fit me, I will see if I can use the other two as eye liners... 

Egg shaped sphere is Hince Raw Glow Dewy Ball in the shade Bare Dew. These are supposed to be similar to the Fwee ones and are a bit cheaper so I decided to try out one to see how they compare. On top of that brand as a whole, Hince is pulling me in with their beautiful vision.

Big white bow is Joocyee Happy Me Day Cream Blush in Romantic Pink. On promo photos this shade put a spell on me and I could not let it go. Nude one is also super pretty but this one was no. one for me and if I like the formula then I might pick the other one too.

 Hello,

almost done with my big parcel. Here I have some more items, some of them I wanted for a long time and some (glittery eye shadow) were bought in the moment they came on sale and I checked them out, thinking they look interesting.

Lets start with fun looking boxes from Peripera Ink Mood Glowy Tints from their Pink Haguma edition. They are little potatos and I found that super funny. There is something about smiling potatos which make my heart smile. I picked all three shades in  Monthly Pink, Pink Spirit and Daldal Pink, their formula never disappoints me.

Next is Clio Glaze Lip Serum in Bare Plum. For me this shade isn't quite plummy but that is fine by me, I loved the muted look of the shade and I am such a sucker for lip glosses in tubes... they are the hardest to resist. 

I kept next item in the box mainly because I really like it. It is Joocyee Happy Me Day Crystal Gloss in Peach Jelly. One out of the four shades and I think this formula is the same as in my pink one and I liked that one a lot so I decided to get this one in the shimmery shade.

I also picked another FlowerKnows Strawberry Cupid Makeup Palette. This one is in Strawberry Casis option, more pinky/nude and a bit cooler. I can't wait to try them out. They both look super beautiful. 

Mini in the middle is Unleashia Moon Light Liquid Glitter in Peach Star. It looks tiny but it does hold 4,1 g of product. It looks super sparkly and I intent to use it on my eyes to add that extra shimmer in the middle of the lid or use it as a sparkly liner, I have a lot of fun ideas how to use it.

Last two items are Jungsaemmool items, I purchased lippie and received blush free of charge. Tube of gloss is Lip-Pression Meta Serum Gloss in Chai Tea. It comes in 10 ml tube and it is supposed to me light nude gloss, I feel like I don't haw that many in this type of shade (at the moment I am finishing one and then I can't think of any other). This one also has a cooling metal tip and I hope the is no tingling or at least to be very mild.

The other one is Jungsaemmool Artist Cushion blush in the shade Coral Halo and it was free gift. I could not choose this shade myself but as far as I can see it looks nice and I can't wait to try it out.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

 Hello,

I am continuing with the pink theme since I have some more items.

I found these Colorgram Tintin Dory Eyeshadow palettes. They are so cute and I picked Rose Dory, Mochi Dory and Nude Dory. Each has four shades and there isn't much difference among them just looking at shades in the pan. I hope they will be a bit more distinguished while on the skin.

I really like these Fwee 3D Voluming lip glosses and I wanted Yogurt 70% and Vanilla 30% the most. I was super happy when I found them in stock plus they had this random gloss for free deal. I crossed my fingers that I will get one of the shades I would like and to my surprise I receive another Vanilla 30%. When looking at them they don't exactly look like the same shade, one looks brighter... but they both have the same name and I can't wait to try them out and compare how similar/different thy look.

Grey packaging next to it is Freshian Vita Ampoule Lipcerin in Tinted version. It has air-fit container and this option is fig tinted and scented. I love the scent of sweet fig so I bet I will love this one a lot.

After trying two of Fwee Lip & Cheek Glowy Jelly Pots I decided to get two more, I picked Sugar Coat and Sweets. In reality I wanted to get Sugar Powder (clear one with shimmers) instead of Sugar Coat (pink and shimmer-less). Ah well, Pink still look cute so I am sure I will use it up but next time I will be getting that Sugar Powder shade. With them I have received two minis but they are empty, just packaging. I guess is convenient if I would like to transfer a bit into little ones and carry them around.

Lastly there is Bbia Ready To Wear Downy Cheek in Downy Fig. I want to dip my toes into new territory, cream blushes and this neutral/nude shade looked like a good start. A lot of people are praising their formula and I personally really like their tints so I decided to give it a go with one shade.

 Hello,

this is the second part of my haul and it bares some exciting new products.

Today I wanted to start with the two boxes. They are Flortte Special Edition Heart- shaped Lipsticks in Hakimi. I purchased them as a set but they came wrapped individually, each in its own box. This is a lipstick with a balm feel (I consider it more like a lip balm) and I already have this one in nude and in pink shade. I prefer to use the nude one so I decided to get this duo for my backups. I will open and use them once I finish my first Hakimi shade.

Thise Hince lip stains are super popular and among so many shades that they offer I had difficulties picking only one shade so I narrow it down to four :) I picked Hince Raw Glow Gel Tints in Bare, Rare, Raw Grape and Chai. I wanted to get lighter, barely there shades from this line to try out, but there is so many that look super cute and it really was hard for me to pick.

I picked a moisturiser from them and I have receive this Belif Super Knits Multi Vitamin Lipcerin lip balm for free. I believe it is full sized 15 ml bottle. It has air fit packaging and I can see myself using it at night time. They recommend to use it also on dry patches all over my body so I think it will be one of those thicker, vaseline like product. When I will finish my current two lip balms that I am using I might start with this one. 

Next are three pretty heavy lipsticks from FlowerKnows Butterfly Cloud Collar Collection Glossy Lipsticks in the shades Peachy Aqua (pink), Birchleaf Pear (blue) and Cardamom (pink). These three looked like the shades I would enjoy the most, their claim and swatches of glossiness convinced me that this formula is worth trying out for me.

On top there are two more FlowerKnows Unicorn Embossed Powder Blushes in Snowy Pearl and Unripe Peach. I thought that these two were shimmery in a modest way, to be a mix of blush and highlighter because that is my favorite finish on my cheeks and if the blush already has integrated glow than I can skip one step completely. 

Thank you for reading and have a nice day
