A LITTLE BIT OF MAKEUP I HAVE BEEN USING: REVIEW.

Everybody around me talking about Catrice, but I’m falling in love again with Essence, and discovering some Revolution Beauty hidden gems!

ESSENCE.

This low-cost makeup brand have been creating some interesting products that worth the hype, and one of them is their “Camouflage+” matt concealer, which claims to be waterproof, and high coverage. Having using it for almost two months and I can tell why is so famous: is matt, lightweight, medium coverage, does not mark expression lines, and for the price it have a pretty decent performance through the day… But is not waterproof!!! and is not the best affordable option to cover any tattoo, because it does not have as much coverage, and the use of excess product makes the skin look rough (being the reason why I only recommend a maximum 2 well-blended layers for each eye, before sealing the product).

On the other hand, the eye brow pencil, is a must, but the only thing I didn't like is the size, I prefer bigger size ones. Easy to apply, correct color with correct undertone, and long-lasting.

REVOLUTION BEAUTY (MAKEUP REVOLUTION).

Nobody can deny the amazing changes that Makeup Revolution have been doing since a few years ago, improving the quality of their products, creating new lines, etc. So I decided to try another makeup foundation from them, “The Super Matte” that claims to be 2 in 1: foundation + concealer. 

Shortly, this makeup foundation has ended being one of my favorites low-cost makeup foundations: is healthy matt, stays all  day on the skin, controls sebum production, and it blends very well, without leaving a mask effect. The only thing I don’t like about this product? Is not transfer-proof.

AVON.

It still amazes me that even though it is such a famous brand, almost no one talks about it, so I think I will continue with their concealer stick. Easy to carry, easy to use, creamy, medium coverage (not buildable), perfect to make fast retouches, but not made to be an all-terrain concealer, or a decent one that can last at least 6 to 7 hours without any retouch.

FULL FACE MAKEUP OF NEW AVON COSMETICS PRODUCTS.

It has been a while since I wanted to write a Review about Avon Cosmetics makeup products, and finally the day has come, and since in Europe we are in summer, with a lot of heat, I wanted to keep it fresh, bronzing, and easy, with a lot of long-lasting and waterproof options.

EYELINERS.

Along with lipsticks, my favorite Avon Cosmetics products are their long-lasting eyeliners. They are highly pigmented, easy to use, and waterproof. I love to use them alone, or with eyeshadow.

POWDER BRONZER.

Usually, this shade is more indicated for medium skin tones, but this time, to me is suitable for medium-dark skin tones, leaving a beautiful mesmerizing golden finish on the skin, being the perfect complement for any contour makeup.

STICK CONCEALER.

This was my sweet and sour product…why? Because on one side I love the way it applies to the skin (very smooth), the texture, how buildable can be, and the fact that it can be used for quick touch-ups, turns it into the perfect carry-on makeup product to save the day. But, on the other side, it needs to be applied on a well-prepared skin (skincare + primer), and setting it with a fine face powder, to avoid the accumulation of product on expression lines (that all human beings have). By the way, is not long-lasting at all, and is not waterproof or water-resistant.

LIPSTICK.

They are one of my favorite makeup products from Avon Cosmetics, for being rich, with a wide color range, highly pigmented, easy to use, and long-lasting.

Furthermore, the two-in-one lip and cheeks product, from the Color Trend line, is perfect for a fresh and effortless makeup look. Not too pigmented, but neither too sheer, with a slight melons melon scent, and a long-lasting finish.

ENDING APRIL WITH AVON COSMETICS.

It has been a while since I wanted to start writing about beauty brands like Avon, Oriflame, or Artistry. They are beauty brands like any other but characterized by the way their products are sold: catalog sales.

I have been seeing Avon products in my house since I was a child, my mother has always bought them, from family sizes body showers and body milk to beautiful lipsticks, and delicious perfumes. Their products have become a classic in our house, products that we can always turn to, some seasons more than others.

Since my teenage days, my favorite products from Avon have been their mascara, lipsticks, perfumes, and shower gels, so I decided to start from here, sharing my opinion about their products. My only issue with the brand is related to their facial skincare lines, but since Avon has been launching a lot of new products, and seems like they have been improving their formulas and ingredients lists, makes me want to try more products from them. 

So… let’s start with the products I have been using these last days, just one thing: I’m very impressed!

AVON SENSES.

If you have been reading me for a while, then you will know that I have sensitive skin, a dry in my body, and a combination of oily in my face, so I can’t use any type of product. But, after having tried their White Lily Bubble Bath, I decided to give their shower gels an opportunity, to end up loving them.

• Secret Lagoon, shower gel.

This shower gel reminds me of pure nature, like bathing in the middle of a lush forest, full of fruit trees and delicious aromas. But the most surprising thing was its texture, the foam is rich, doesn’t dry out the skin, and after rising, it leaves the skin clean and with a natural aroma that made me fall in love.

• Sweet & Joyful, shower cream.

It smells like a delicious citric candy, and instead of the body, the aroma permeates the entire bathroom too. The only thing I noticed in contrast with the first one, is the fact that even being a shower cream, the foam is less rich.

But even if it does not dry out the skin, I have been able to feel that noticeable difference.

FAR AWAY GLAMOUR, Perfume.

My second favorite perfume from Avon, after Far Away Infinity. Is like the deep dark version of the Infinity one, but still mysterious and elegant. I like to use it for formal events or some informal ones, but for me is absolutely not for every day and every moment.

CÉLÉBRE, Eau de cologne.

I really love this fragrance, I remember buying it because I needed an everyday light fragrance to combine with my body spray, and this just turned perfect: floral, fresh, and light.

The only thing I missed is the durability since it doesn’t last as much as I would like.

CANDY CORN LUSH LIPS BALM, Color Trend.

I know that maybe it will sound strange, but this lip balm along with the Neutrogena one, are the ones that really help me treats my lips when they are dry. And I love it even more for its smell and taste… just delicious.
