Revlon Whipped Colorstay Foundation

Being a member of website, Beauty Heaven, means I have had many perks, including a whopping prize pack containing a crazy amount of beauty products. Oh, it was heaven alright! The point I'm getting to is that I received Revlon Whipped Colorstay foundation among the many goodies.

 I remember the original Colorstay foundation from too many years ago. It was popular. I didn't like it. So, if it hadn't been for the lucky win, I would never have even tried this  version of the foundation.

 Taken from the Revlon website- "...offers ultimate performance. The mousse like texture feels like silk on your skin, and the time release formula balances your skin for a flawless look. All day flexible wear, without flaking, caking or feeling heavy."
The foundation comes in a sturdy glass jar.

Included is a plastic protector cap, I love that there is a tab that you can grab making it easier to remove.
The consistency is like creamy chocolate mousse,

As you can see, this foundation gives full coverage, the sore almost disappearing under.

I use a flat topped kabuki brush to apply this foundation, and find that it blends smoothly and easily across my skin and means no streaking.

 Being a Colorstay formula, I was concerned that my face would look flat, something I don't like about matte foundations. Although I have combination skin, and can get oily, I much prefer a dewy finish.

 I soon discovered that this Revlon foundation gave me a smooth velvety finish. My skin still looked and felt like skin. Not flat, and no cakey drying feeling either.

 My flaws are concealed, with only extra help needed under my eye area to mask my terribly dark circles.

 As the Colorstay name suggests, I get hours of wear, only coming off when I remove it. No slipping and sliding, even on a hot day. I do continue to use a finishing powder, as I do with all liquid foundations.
 Apart from eyes and lips, I don't have any other face makeup products on.

Not only did I receive the perfect shade, so far, I really like using Revlon Whipped Colorstay Foundation.

What foundation are you currently using?

    Ohh this Revlon Colourstay whipped foundation sounds like it's definitely worth trying! My favourite foundation is currently my MAC Mineralize foundation.

    The Whipped foundation looks great on you. I've been wanting to try this since the only foundation I currently use is the Revlon Colorstay Makeup in Combination/Oily which I love. I reckon the whipped texture would be airier and more fun to use. Haha. Yay for BeautyHeaven!

BH Cosmetics Carli Bybel Deluxe Palette and Giveaway

Image
When BH Cosmetics released the original Carli Bybel palette I was tossing up whether I was going to purchase it or not. Sure, it was pretty with lovely neutral shades, but I was trying to cut down my eye shadow palette buying to only palettes that I really, really had to have and I wasn't convinced that was the case. When the Carli Bybel Deluxe version was released containing 15 shadows and 6 highlighters as opposed to the original which had 10 eye shadows and 3 highlighters, I had to have it. I went as far as pre-ordering the palette before it was even released. The sneak peek swatches had won me over! Taken from BH Cosmetics - "This palette features 11 original shades plus 10 chic new shadows and highlighters in buttery blendable formulas with staying power." The palette is a large square with magnet closure and complete with a cardboard sleeve. The palette is so pretty, I love the rose gold writing on the quilted pintuck background design. Opening the palet...

BYS Berries Palette

Image
I have bought from the brand BYS in the past, but I can't say I've actually sought out anything from them. Well, that was until I saw swatches popping up on my Instagram feed of the Berries palette.  It's a 12 pan palette and has a similar vibe going on to the much loved and raved about ABH Modern Renaissance palette. Of course, I do not own the pricier ABH palette, but I just had to have the Berries palette. Taken from BYS - "BYS Berries Eye Shadow Palette features an array of 12 expertly chosen, highly pigmented matte and metallic eye shadows. The 12 piece palette comes housed in a modern, embossed tin. featuring a mirror and 2 dual end applicators." The tin packaging of this palette is really cute, it reminds me of the Naked 2 and 3 palettes. It is a little bulky, but I like it. Let's take a peek inside Oh yes, I'm all about those warm orange and plum tones. There are 3 shimmery shades and the rest are matte. Here's the sw...

It's Skin Power 10 Formula VC Effector

Image
I was once again sucked into buying some bargain products from Ozsale . Part of my order was 4 serums from the brand It's Skin. Being a Korean brand I really wanted to try some products. I couldn't find a lot of information about It's Skin online, but the Power 10 Formula range sounded pretty good. I really wanted to try them all at once, but to get an idea of how each serum performed I restrained myself by using one serum at a time. The first one I tried was the VC Effector. The serum is no longer available on Ozsale, but I found it for sale on Beauty Bay - "A clarity improving skin serum designed for all skin types. Enriched with a blend of naturally derived, active ingredients, the It's Skin Power 10 Formula VC Effector worfs effectively to reduce the appearance of discolouration and dark spots. With a lightweight serum texture its quickly absorbed into the skin offering brightening and lightening effects, whilst simultaneously suppressing melanin prod...
