Freedom Makeup Pro Melts

During my first Freedom Makeup haul, (sister brand to Makeup Revolution) the Pro Melts really appealed to me. I just love trying new lip products.

Taken from Freedom Makeup- "Get the High Definition Intense finish with this melted lipstick formula lip gloss."

I've had an obsession with matte lipsticks lately, so it was nice to try something different, with more of a gloss formula. I settled on 4 Pro Melts.

Typical liquid lip gloss tube packaging.

These have a standard doe foot applicator. The formula is quite thick, but so smooth and easy to apply. I was concerned that they would be tacky on the lips, however, they feel more like a balm when pressing the lips together. I can definitely feel them on my lips, though the formula isn't too heavy. I really like the vinyl gloss finish. What I love is the opacity. These lip glosses are super pigmented!

Smooth






Wanted- more red based than the blue it appears on screen.





Debut
Please forgive the inconsistency of colour depending on camera flash, this shade IRL is most accurate in the full face photo.

I seriously love the Pro Melts. They go on beautifully and really last well. I got over 5 hours wear, which I thought was impressive for a glossy liquid lipstick. The wear was only really noticeable at the center of my lips. The brighter shades did stain my lips, but it was an even stain so my lips didn't look at all patchy.

Now, seeing that I ordered only the one Pro Butter, I thought I would just tack it on the end here, instead of doing a separate blog post.

 Same packaging as the Pro Melts



Cat's Whiskers

The butters are not as thick as the melts. It was more of a glossy stain rather than a lipstick. Application was very easy. The only con I can think of is that after around 3 hours, my lips would start feeling dry. In saying that, I would consider trying other shades in my almost certain future purchase.

Do you prefer sheer or opaque lip colours?

      Thank you, hun. I have so many, because I mainly buy from the cheaper brands. I have no high end lipsticks. I am often tempted by a more expensive brand, but the cheapskate in me always calculates the amount of lipsticks I could buy for that price, lol

    Oh yes! These look and sound fabulous and I love the colours you chose Indie - you look so hot in the purple you make me want Wanted. And how inspired to team it with orange - genius! Definitely opaque for me - sheer shades just don't hide my freckly pout ♡♡♡

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...
