This was another awesome find from Essence! Yes, you read it right, could resist writing that at the beginning of Essence All About Matte Fixing Loose Powder review. If you having oily skin then you are going to love this product.

Essence All About Matte Fixing Loose Powder


Texture-wise Essence All About Matte Fixing Loose Powder is pure white and finely mild, it’s kinda reminded me of silica powder. Blends very easily into the skin, doesn’t provide any sort of coverage, appears completely transparent, doesn’t leave any white cast and mattify skin beautifully. I apply it with a fluffy powder brush. Love this product mainly to set my under-eye makeup and T-zone area as well as love to dust all over the face. I can see an instant difference every time I use this powder, absorbs facial oil so fast and leaves skin silky-smooth. Mattifying effect of Essence All About Matte Fixing Loose Powder last four to five hours(humid weather) in my case, if I’m in a cool environment then it last forever.

The jar packaging of Essence All About Matte Fixing Loose Powder is not really travel-friendly. Essence has also a compact form of this Powder. I was actually looking for the compact form while purchasing, but that wasn’t available in my local store. I guess that compact form of Essence All About Matte Fixing Loose Powder does the same job.

As I mentioned before I’m loving Essence All About Matte Fixing Loose powder, this has already become my daily needs. For the price and performance, it is a definite repurchase for me but I’m sure if you have dry skin this is not for you.

Essence I Heart Stage Shadow Base

 
Essence products are fairly new in Bangladesh. I almost ran to my local store when I heard they were there and picked this eyeshadow base first. Obviously it is a raved product in the web so I was quite excited to try. It’s been couple of month I’ve been wearing Essence I Heart Stage Shadow Base continuously, needless to mention because fell in love from the first use.

[wp_ad_camp_4][/wp_ad_camp_4]

First of all the doe-foot applicator of Essence I Heart Stage Shadow Base makes it easily applicable and mess free. I was confused about the pigmentation. Yet with time I realized that its pigmentation actually helps to even out the eyelid tone and doesn’t bother eye shadow color at all. The product is very smooth to apply, blends easily and sets quite fast. Amazingly helps to stay put eyeshadow in place throughout the day.

I love it most for another special reason. I have been struggling with my under eye fine lines. No concealer or else was helping me at all, with everything my lines were creasing horribly! …till I started using Essence I Heart Stage Shadow Base underneath my under-eye concealer. I was literally surprised how this product prevents creasing and keep my under-eye area smooth. Love this product now and I mean come on… my MAC or even Urban Decay product didn’t help me from creasing under the eyes!!!

[wp_ad_camp_5][/wp_ad_camp_5]

Without any doubt Essence I Heart Stage Shadow Base was the best drugstore find for me till now. I’m super impressed with its quality and certainly going to repurchase! If you haven’t tried Essence I Heart Stage Shadow Base yet I highly recommend you to try this product.

Eid-ul-Fitr 2014

Eid-ul-Fitr 2014
Hello there, belated Eid Mubarak! Hope you all had a fantastic Eid-ul-Fitr 2014.
Obviously I also had a good one, Alhamdulillah! This year I didn’t reach for any traditional look. These days I’m so much into comfort and enjoying the moments rather hovering over costume or makeup-setup-getup. I’m dealing with that state of mind when you hate putting on, extra cares  but just intend to live each and every moment even if normally you are a makeup enthusiast, you know right!

A simplest dress with slight touch of random makeup I enjoyed my Eid-ul-Fitr 2014 in fullest!

Products Feature:
Dress – Yellow
Bag & Sandal – Vincci
Lip – MAC Rebel

Funky Blue eye look

Hie guys,
Apology first, I have no pic-torial on this look today due to some technical mistake! so it is going to be a short post! However, this Funky Blue eye look is quite subtle ans easy to wear in daytime as well as perfect for parties or night because of the funky touch of bright teal liner 🙂

What you think??? Oh yes, you can definitely change the liner color as you prefer. I added a piece of false eye lash just at the end yet you can wear a full lash if you want or just rock without.

Classic Black and Brown Smokey Eye

Classic Black and Brown Smokey Eye, a universal type of eye look which is flattering with anything and everything as well as wearable anytime day or night! Pure black as a dominating color might look a bit out of the trend so I used a burgundy brown as my prime color here. Kept the liner clean and simple to focus only in the smokey part.

[wp_ad_camp_3][/wp_ad_camp_3]

Let’s get into the tutorial…

Classic Black and Brown Smokey Eye

1. First as usual started with a primed eyelid. Applied a solid matte brown shade (which is pretty close to my skin tone) softly in the crease.
2. With a black kajal filled my lid and blended that nicely up to the crease to create a base for black eyeshadow.
3. Applied a black shadow over the black base and again blended that up to the crease.
4. Now softly swiped a burgundy brown shade all over the lid just leaving the outer corner a bit.
5. Again took the black shadow and defined the outer corner. Applied highlighter in brow bone and tear duct area. Then blended out every harsh line.
6. Filled my waterline with black kajal. Then with black shadow smoked out lower lash line.
7. Applied black liquid liner only in the upper lid.
8. Lastly. applied few coats of mascara and my eye makeup were done!


[wp_ad_camp_4][/wp_ad_camp_4]
Here is the finished look…

Classic Black and Brown Smokey Eye

Classic Black and Brown Smokey Eye


I think Classic Black and Brown Smokey Eye is the easiest eye style to create. You need to work with only two or three basic colors, but this look requires a lot of blends. You must have to be careful and patient with blending while creating a smokey eye otherwise the entire look will be ruined only because of the prominent harsh line.
[wp_ad_camp_1][/wp_ad_camp_1]

I kept my lips nude here, but you can also wear bold lips like red, wine, brown etc with this smokey eye. Needless to mention, a pair of false lash will make this look more eye catching.

Sleek Delmar Eyeshadow Palette | Review & Swatch

32

Sleek Delmar Eyeshadow Palette is a fairly new palette by Sleek Makeup, launched as a limited edition in their summer collection. Sleek Delmar Eyeshadow Palette comes in their usual black palette and a dual tip sponge applicator is also included. This palette features twelve vibrant shade inspired by soothing and serene environment of Ibiza! As soon as I saw this palette I knew that I have to get my hands on this one. Probably after three years a Sleek palette caught my eyes that hard!

[wp_ad_camp_3][/wp_ad_camp_3]

Needless to mention, Sleek makeup is not available in Bangladesh. I had to get this through online.

Sleek Delmar Eyeshadow Palette


You’ll find some application instruction/suggestion back of the paper packet! All shadow named beautifully printed in a extra plastic film which I hate. That name film is apparently a hassle to keep! I really wish they would print the names in the palette. 

[wp_ad_camp_4][/wp_ad_camp_4]


  
Here’s the swatch with no primer or any base…..

Sleek Delmar Eyeshadow Palette

Sleek Delmar Eyeshadow Palette

Sleek Delmar Eyeshadow Palette consist fun selection of summer shades which are bright and playful yet subtle. There are pleasing varieties of texture, some are matte, some are semi-matte, few feels satin in finish and only the shade ‘Lounge Lovers’ is frosty. They provide good color pay off but matte shades feel a bit chalky, to mention ‘Chilled Out’ and ‘Balearic Beat’. As because they are intentionally made in subtle form so the color needs to be packed on quite a bit to achieve the best color pay off. Every shade blends nicely but fades away faster than usual, they needs building up to during application. The shade ‘Talamanca’ appears almost invisible in my skin without primer but with primer I found this works as a great transition color. ‘Chilled Out’ a complete white chalky shade is one and only unflattering shade of this palette, otherwise I’m satisfied with rest.

You might find this palette confusing due to its subtle color pay off. In my case, I’m totally happy with it because this palette attract me for its subtle finish. Do keep this fact in mind if you keen to purchase Sleek Delmar Eyeshadow Palette.

[wp_ad_camp_4][/wp_ad_camp_4]

The eye look below I created using Sleek Delmar Eyeshadow Palette. Used the shade ‘Ambience’ in the crease, ‘Poolside’ in 2/3 of outer lid, ‘On The Rocks’ in inner corner and ‘feel Euphoric’ to blend the inner corner shade up to brows.

Sleek Delmar Eyeshadow Palette was a must have for me and I’m in love with my purchase, but I’m not sure how you’ll feel about this!
Have you got one? I would really like to know how you feel about Sleek Delmar Eyeshadow Palette….!

Arabic style eye makeup with easily wearable matte colors!

8

Hello beautiful! Hope you doing well… I was requested to do an Arabic style eye makeup, so here I’m!

The base of Arabic style eye makeup is mainly the way of lining eyes! Super dramatic Long accentuated double lining and bold colors are almost mandatory for that look. You’ll find the originality of Arabic makeup style in their belly dance performance. I tried to make this look a little more wearable by using soft toned matte colors but yes, there is those dramatic lines. Hope you like my interpretation.

[wp_ad_camp_3][/wp_ad_camp_3]

Let’s have a look at the pic-torial…
Arabic Style Eye MakeupI started with a primed base ofcourse. Attached a tape in the angle of my eye and brow, for the sake of a sharp line that I’m going to create. For this look, I used my Sleek Makeup Delmar eye shadow palette. With the shade ‘Ambience'(dusty lilac shade) defined 2/3 of the crease. Filled 2/3 of the lid with ‘Poolside'(teal shade) and 1/3 of the inner lid with ‘on the rocks'(coral) shade. Taking the shade ‘feel euphoric'(soft pink coral) blended that inner half taking almost up to the brow to make some drama. Highlighted my brow bone and very inner corner with The Balm Mary-Lou-Manizer. Then blended all lines of shadows nicely. Now time for eyeliner applied a dark black liner in medium thickness and winged it out pretty long. Removed the tape after applying liner. Applied white kohl on my lower water line and black kohl in lower lash line. Then blended black kohl with the shade ‘Blue Marine'(teal green) creating a second wing under the upper winged line. Taking a silver glitter liner filled the gaps between two wing, made another line just above the black liner in upper lid also touched a bit in the inner corner. Lastly, applied few coats of mascara.

[wp_ad_camp_4][/wp_ad_camp_4]


I didn’t wear any false lashes here but you must remember with a pair of false lash this Arabic style eye makeup will pop up in its full form. The real drama of Arabic style eye makeup can’t be complete without big dramatic falsies. But again, to make the look comfortable to wear you can skip false lash.

Eid-ul-Fitr is coming soon, I think this Arabic style eye makeup can come useful as your Eid evening look 🙂

Flormar Deluxe Cashmere Lipstick Comes in a beautiful shiny golden packaging, quite sleek to look at. Consist 3g of product has no identical smell in it. They have many beautiful colors in this range, I picked Elegant Terracotta, felt I was missing this warm brown pure terracotta in my collection. The texture of this lipstick is extremely smooth and pigmented, glides on lip like butter. Holds up for long and does not bleed over the time. The lipstick doesn’t appear shiny on the lip, looks semi-matte in natural light. It also feels so moisturizing on the lip. I absolutely love this Lipstick as well as this particular shade.

Flormar Matte Lipstick comes in classic matte black packaging, containing a 4.2g of product. They also have many colors in this matte range, I picked Milk Chocolate and Vintage Pink. The lipstick has some kind of sweet smell but that’s not really overpowering. I love the packaging, it’s simple yet sober to look at also sturdy enough. The lipstick is matte yet glides like cream, pretty moisturizing, doesn’t give any dry feeling. It applies amazingly smooth and opaque, does not bleed and last really long.

Overall, I’m so happy with these Flormar Matte and Deluxe Cashmere Lipstick. They are awesome for the price and quality. If you looking for budget friendly good quality lipstick then I surely recommend you to try Flormar Matte and Deluxe Cashmere Lipstick.
