The All Natural Face Apricot Kisses Powder

For years I predominately used mineral powder foundations, so I really didn't feel the need for a finishing powder. It's a different story now that I've developed an appreciation of liquid foundations.
I hate a powder that makes my skin look cakey and washed out, All Natural Face Apricot Kisses Glow does none of these. This powder is the darkest shade of the 7 available. Suitable for medium to darker skins, but even paler skinned ladies could get away with using if they want a little warmth added to their look. This multi-purposed powder can also be used as a subtle blush and eye shadow, with or without foundation.
The powder comes in a smallish jar with sifter. It has a simple paper label on the lid, which as you can see from the first pic, got very grubby.

 To apply, before opening, I just tip it upside down and gently tap, then carefully undo the lid. I dip the brush to capture the powder. I then just brush the smooth blend across my face and neck in circular motions.

The warm apricot tint is not too pigmented, and flatters my skin tone. Thankfully the "glow" is not shimmery, it just gives a very subtle radiant sheen. 

 The jar might not be that big, but the powder seems to be lasting me forever. 

 So far this is my favourite face powder. I am determined to continue getting through my stash , but I'm certain I will be replacing in the future.

    Beaut product hon, and looks SO good on you ♥ I feel the same about cakey totally matte powders that leave a whitish cast, but it's hard to find one that has a bit of dimension without being too shiny. Love finding out what your favourites are Indie xxx

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

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.
