Juliet Rose

 Hello,

today is a perfect day to show this lovely blush. I wanted a pastel peach (my long gone Tony Moly Salmon Nude blush is missed) when I came across this baby.

I purchased it online so I wasn't sure if it will be the right shade but I decided to take the plunge. It is Bbia Last Blush in the shade Juliet Rose (maybe this will truly be the last blush for me...)

It is paste peach but I fell like it lacks some brightness, my old one has some white pigment for brightening included but I can' see it here. Somewhat it looks dusty and light.

On my wrist it barely shown but I like that it is close to my skin tone since I don't want it to be too much.

When applied with a brush it kicks some powder. 

On my face it is a bit more noticeable, probably because my foundation is still a dit damp (when I apply concealer and foundation I spray fixing spray and when it dries I powder my face and only then follow with other colored powders on my cheeks and eyes), I can only assume that I don't powder my face too much and while it it is a bit sticky blush holds on to it and it is slightly darker, a bit more defined.

I like the simple and thin packaging, curvature nicely follows the tint curvature so it is recognisable but without over the top design. Shade is lovely, I like that it is light but for me it still lacks that ompf that Salmon Nude had. 

I will gladly wear it but my hunt for perfect shade continues.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Shell blushes

 Hello,

I have been using these beauties for a while now and outer packaging is cute but blushes inside are stunning. I think these two look very different in the pan opposed swatched. 

They are FlowerKnows Shell's Jewel Silk Satin blushes (in my head this is still the Mermaid dream collection :) Beach Starfish and Strawberry Bubble.

Packaging is massive but super detailed as well. I love that inside there is a mirror for easy application.

Beach Starfish is nude with peachy tone and Strawberry Bubble looks bright. It reminds me of juicy Watermelon and this shade scared me a lot. I hoped that it would apply sheer otherwise this blush would not be useful to me.

Embossing is again beautiful and my heart hurts when I have to use them but that is not why I purchased them (yes, it did helped ;) but nude blush was something I was looking for and pink one looked pretty on other peoples cheeks.

Swatches are sheer but buildable and there is also evident tiny silver shimmer in both blushes. Light pigment makes them easy to wear and I love the build in highlighters.

These two blushes are massive hits for me, I am able to use a little amount and get a soft flush of color with sheen.

I like my FlowerKnows blushes but these two are the only two with sateen finish, the rest are matte and finish on these Shell's Jewel blushes is my favorite. Now I am thinking of getting more from this line. I hear the new Unicorn blushes are also glowy... I am interested.

Stillness and Par Ave Maria

 Hello,

here I am with Dinto items, I don't know what exactly it is about this brand but I am oddly interested in them. Maybe it is all of their literature inspiration or high praises of their items in general... all I know is that I want to try it all :)

These two Dinto items were sold together and I thought it would be a nice way to try also their blush since this one is a mini. If I won't like it it is at least something small.

Regular sized Dinto is Mirrorless Lip oil Gloss in Stillness (4 ml) and mini is Dinto Soft Glow Liquid Cheek in Par Ave Maria with 1,6 ml of product.                  

Blush Par Ave Maria looks beige and Stillness gloss looks more mauve toned here, none has any sparkles.

First swatch is blush Per Ave Maria and here on me it looks pale and slightly peach toned, in real life it pulls a bit more baby pink. Formula is at first shiny and when it dries it dies matte. 

I tried to use it over my foundation but that was a fail since it did not blend into it but it lifted and messed with it. My best bet was to use it under foundation. I also noticed that the more I was blending it the softer the shade and then it completely melted into my skin and was not detectable especially with the foundation on top of it.

My next vision was to use it on my lips and that worked, it is light enough to slightly overline and create more even base of my lips for further lip products. I wore it alone or under some lip balms and glosses and it wore evenly and undetectable. I like it more as a lip product than blush and that is how I will use it up.

Next swatch is Stillness and it is more muted and mauve than what is shown on the photos. I don't mind the shade I have since it is light and understated. Formula is not sticky and very glossy. At first it smells slightly fruity and once on the lips there is slight tingle at first I wasn't even sure if it was coming from this item. It leaves no stain.

At first I was disappointed in blush but when I found another and better for me option how to use it, I can say that I love it now and I think it will be used up pretty fast.

Gloss is nice but nothing too special. I like the gradient packaging, slight fruity scent, even the minimal tingle doesn't bother me. Shade is lovely and shine lasts, at first it isn't super glossy but after a few minutes it gets glossier. If I will find other shades on sale I might pick more up otherwise I will just check some other lines from them.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Big purchase no. 3

 Hello,

I am back with another pink selection of new make-up.

Let's start on top with JudyDoll Undereye Shadow Palette in Lively Pink. There are four shades with included brush for a quick and on the go make-up. Shades looked like something I would like and I thought my collection could benefit from some light shades in different tones. If I will like it I might pick the peach tone as well.

Three lippies are Colorgram. Clear tubes are  Fruity Glass glosses in Farewell Guava and Giggle Strawberry and middle one is Fruity Glass Tint in Mochi Pink. All tubes are the same size and hold 3g of product.  Giggle Strawberry looks a bit bright... hopefully is sheer.

Two pretty blushes are Canmake Glow cheeks blushes in Ballerina Pink and Momo Whiped Fleur. Floral design is so pretty but I know that in order to enjoy them I will have to ruin the design. So far I really liked blushes from them so I have high hopes.

Last pink item is Rom&nd Sheer tinted stick in Bunny Hop. There was also a deeper mauve shade that I liked but at the end I picked this one because of the cute name ;) hopefully I will also like the formula :)

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Big purchase no. 2

 Hello,

this part of my shopping consists only of two types of products but they are exciting ones :)

I picked Fwee 3D voluming tints in Sweety Dew, Vanilla Dew, Withdewout, Melba Dew, Strawbery Pop, Berry Pop and Peach Pop. They are marketing them as a perfect mix of tint and shine, to be clear and bright without being too loud. The whole description spoke to me and I picked almost all of the shades :( 

I could not resist.

Middle item is Dasique Soft Blur Cheek blush in Nude Beige. In person it looks super pale and I am not sure this one will show up on my cheeks... it almost looks like my face powder, maybe a little peachier... I will have to try it out and see.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Big purchase no. 1

 Hello,

I am a little late with this package since it has been sitting in my closet for a while. This is my way of punishing myself for buying too much.

I picked three FlowerKnows blushes from their The Sweetie Bear Satin blush range. Some shades looked too similar to one another so I did not picked up all five, the ones that got my attention are Garden Picnic, Rose Chanson and Bear Biscuit. Packaging is sweet looking.

I also got two shades more from Bbia Over glaze in Jujube Syrup and Peanut Syrup. This line is amazing, I already have three shades already and I wanted to try out the more nude shades and these two looked perfect.

The other two with round lids are Clio Volumate glosses in Blushed Candy and Bunny Pure Pink. Clio brand recently got my attention and I wanted to try some items, these two looked sweet on promo photos, I hope they will look the same one me.

Lastly the pink tube is JudyDoll lip essence which I don't think it is sold separately. I received it as a gift with purchase and slowly but surely JuddyDoll is getting one of my favorite brands. Giving gifts with purchase helps to fall in love even more. 

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

pastel blushes

 Hello,

these have pretty unique packaging with shiny surface.

Mirror like compacts are About Tone Fluffy Wear Blushers in Dreamy Raspberry and Bubbly Orange Peach. When I was picking them out they had so many shades and it was difficult to choose.

Inside blushes have ripple design and seeing these two shades was something, Dreamy Raspberry looks too pale for me but Bubbly Orange Peach looks just right. 

They have this pastel like tone and peach one reminded me of my old Tony Moly Salmon nude shade but I think that one was even paler and softer.

I like that these don't kick much powder, I was expecting to get a lot of fall off but there is barely any.

Pink one has white tones and it almost glows against my skin and I did not know what to do with it. I was sure that it would not suit me at all.

Next is peachy orange tone and it almost blend into my hand, I know that my face is a bit paler but still in the pan it looks darker.

When I used them on my face these two turned 180 degrees. Photo above are swatches over my BB cream so it was stickier and it sort of absorbed the white tones from the blushes and made them more alive. Dreamy Raspberry sort of melts into my skin and is darker and still light, sheer but lively. I don't find it bad at all. Bubbly Orange Peach shows up wonderfully, it gives radiance without shimmers. To put it simply above swatches don't do them any justice. I am glad that they both turned out to be a good fit for my skin tone. When they mix with my BB or foundation they create quite natural effect which isn't too pale or too vibrant, just right in the middle, perfect for barely there cheek days.

Both are very blurring and I love topping them with highlighters. I like the formula but shades are really lovely on me, now I am looking at getting some more shades and I am preparing myself to see shades and they perform differently on my skin :)

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Petal Primavera

 Hello,

I recently rediscovered one of my older blushes and I am very glad that I did.

It is Milano Baked blush in Petal Primavera. I was looking at some of the more famous shades but they seemed a bit too glowy, then I found this baby and I think I found a true gem.

It has pinky-nude-peach color to it and it looked like it would be sateen, no specific particles and glowy bits. I only wish that the veining would be more obvious (there is some but so pale that it is barely noticeable).

Shade is somewhat unique mix of warm tones and it depends from the angle you look at it. On the curvature of my cheeks it shows up and it looks like I have used multiple colors.

There is sateen finish and there are some fine sparkles thrown in the mix. I made these swatches just with my finger so these swatches are a bit stronger than what I wear applied with a brush. I also think that tapping off the excess removes these random shimmers and it has beautiful glow.

This blush is really beautiful and it is one of my favorites. I think that this shade looks beautiful on me, it can be really subtle and lets the glow do the talking but applied with one extra layer it gets stronger and less subtle. It also can be the star and vocal point of my make-up.

Now I am even more inclined to try other shades and see if there is some other shades with the same finish. I would love to have a brown one, bronzer with this glow. I think this would be really beautiful.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Love to Fight?

 Hello,

this blush looks beautiful while still in the box. They just made a cut out to show off the happy sun :)

Sunny compact is GirlCult Nanyang Holiday Collection Mood blusher powder in the option Love to Fight.

The other two version are more neutral and natural looking browns.

Packaging is beautiful, different from anything else I have ever seen. Sun is raised and touchable but the blue background is just a sticker, if wet it lifts, don't ask me how I know :(

Inside is gorgeous, not just the imprint but the two colors. Vivid watermelon red mixed with pale pastel blue, such a unique color scheme. I also love that there is a mirror inside for easy application.

Shade on my swatches comes out a bit pale in comparison with real life. It is reddish pink, bright and 

lively. 

I have to be careful not to apply too much because it can quickly turn too much but if I am careful it looks lively.

I like to wear it on my cheeks when my eye make-up is neutral and minimal, this blush somehow looks natural but if I put a smidge more it takes and carries the look. I look naturally flushed and I have nothing else in my collection that is similar.

This blush is special and I have nothing else in my collection which could come close. I like the design and the output. I think this shade looks like I am naturally flushed, no matter how vivid still it looks natural and I love that.

This blush is now one of my favorite ones, I will definitely look into their blushes a bit more carefully and see if there is something else for me :)

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Powerful Pink, Little Shy Pink and Clever Beige

 Hello,

honestly I did not have high hope for these, I thought they are pretty but probably will not be that special, I was wrong. They are very special and dear to my heart :)

These cuties are Canmake Powder Cheeks blushes, in my order they are Powerful Pink, Little Shy Pink and Clever Beige. 

They have this lovely heart design which is quite deep and mine are still noticeable. All of them have this beautiful tiny shimmer which looks more like sateen finish on the skin.

Powerful Pink is the most pigmented and shines pink, glow is beautiful and it is a true shiny blush.

Little Shy Pink is way more sheer and barely visible on my skin, color wise. I like to use it on barely there make-up days where glow is the vocal point not shade.

Lastly there is Clever Beige which has a bit stronger glow but no color, at least on my skin tone. For me this one is a highlighter and a beautiful one.

I made these swatches with my finger and they are stronger than with a brush so when I use them they are a bit less visible and more blended. I think they look pretty natural and the shine is glowing from within the skin.

Each holds 1,8g of product and a little brush. It is soft but picks a little product, enough for the glow to show up but shade is super sheer. I prefer to use these with my own/old brushes but little brushes included are useful too.

I could stare at the all day long. Shades are pretty and swatches are phenomenal. I kind of want to get the peach tone as well, I wish they would also made a brown one... :)

These have become some of my favorite and I would like to collect more but not only as a visual candy, they are gorgeous on the skin and are a joy to use.

Rouge Snow & Pearwood

 Hello,

I picked these two muffins from FlowerKnows in the more natural looking tones. These look very cute and I hopped that I could also reuse them jewellery boxes.

They are FlowerKnows Butterfly Cloud Collar Highlighting & Blush duo powders in Rouge Snow (white) and Pearwood (black). There are five options to choose from and I picked the most natural ones.

Details on these cupcakes are beautiful, everywhere I look there are butterflies.

I love that they matched and carried details also on a opening clasp. 

They are beautiful to look at and colors are in such harmony.

Details are also all over the powders, so so beautiful but mine almost completely lost it (I use them a lot :). There is very little powder kick from these, way less than expected.

First swatch comes for the white duo and first one is ivory, more highlighting (still matte) or nice for blending or mixing with too dark shades. Second is light nude with a rosy undertone.

Second pair is from the black cupcake. Third is peachy nude and last one is nude with some rosy tones. Both are nice blush shades.

All of the shades are very pigmented, here I only made two layers of each shade just to make them a bit more even, pigment is there.

These shades are really beautiful for my complexion. I love wearing them. I went back and checked other options and there is also one pink duo which looks nice for me as well... but I feel like all I want to wear on my cheeks at the moment are nudes... I use these also on my eyes to get a cohesive nude look through my entire face.

These are probably my favorite FlowerKnows items :)

New package no.2

 Hello,

I dove deep into lippies, I know I have too many but the little bug in me wants to try something new, different, something I haven't tried before...

Dinto lip products are highly praised as longlasting and I wanted to try it out. I picked four sets since I get to try more shades out (there are so many and I wanted to get around twenty different ones). So far I will settle for only six :)

First in black packaging are Best Blur glowy lip tints, regular sized and minis in Justitia, Silentium, Fidentia, another Silentium, Florentia and lastly Claritas. They are mostly in various shades of pink, there are some muted shades available but weren't offered in sets. I will try these first and if I will like them I will get more shades for sure.

At the bottom is Dinto Snow White Mirrorless lip oil gloss in Stillness. Mini is also Dinto and it is their soft glow liquid cheek Par Ave Maria. These two were also part of a set and I was not able to choose the blush color. It looks very light and soft. Here I am a little worried that it will not show up on me but I still hope it will have some glow, that would be nice.

Lastly I picked out two WakeMake Dewy Gel Maxi lip glosses Ballet Pink and Slow Dance. I picked out two pink shades but they look pretty different from one another and one has shimmers while other one is free of them. I did not picked them up based of their names even though they kind of match.

Here I can't wait to try the famous Dinto tints, I hear so many good reviews of their items.
