I 💗 makeup - triple baked blush and highlighter

I 💗 makeup - triple baked blush and highlighter
Hi loves!
Recently I had bought some new stuff from the brand Makeup Revolution and I wanted to show it to you...at least two things that I bought. To be honest, it's actually one of my favourite brands out there 💗 So I bought a higlighter and blush from this brand's I heart Makeup collection. 
Here they are:

 
Just look at them...I mean the packaging is so adorable. It's cute that it's shaped as a heart 😍😍😍

 
Blushing Heart is a blush with a purely pink selection of colours and it also seems to have glitter in it.  The swatches on the pic above show you what the colours look like for each blush when they are swirled together.  I don't want to use these blushes individually but but prefer to swirl my brush around to mix the colours together giving a beautiful pinky colour. It's very smooth to use, it blends on the cheeks quickly and settles down nicely. It looks natural and gives a soft smooth finish. The highlighter - Goddess of Love - is a relatively neutral yellow shade. On the cheecks it looks really light, shimmery and beutiful. I really love how it looks after I apply it on my cheecks.

 
For me the biggest pros of these two are: the cute pink heart packaging; nice looking shades; they blend smoothly on skin; they give brightness and shine to face; good pigmentation, suuuuuuper affordable - basically they are gorgeous 😊

And what are your thoughts about them? Have you used the blush or highlighter? Let me know! As usually...comment and follow if you like 💕

Till next time! xoxo

Gold & Brown

Gold & Brown
Hi loves!
Hope you had a great day! Today I wanted to show you a makeup created for my cousin...so basically she isn't a girl who wears makeup on a daily basis. She usually just wears mascara and some foundation/ powder... that's it to be honest...
But sometimes, when she has a bigger event like a birthday party to attend, she comes over and asks me to do her makeup 😊
This time we opted for this look:

It's really easy and light...I wanted to keep it this was so that she could feel comfortable in it just because she usually doesn't like dark makeup...but I'm hoping that I will be able to change it soon😋😜
For this look I again used my Makeup Revolution Flawless palette - which I adore by the way 💕

Here are the swatches of the colours I used:

From left we have (with numbers): Molton Chocolate (28), Soft Glow (2), Green Stars (30), Night (32), Pure Chocolate (25), Smudge (17), Almost There (9) & Paper (1)

Some more photos 👇😘 

Sooo what do u think? Do you like the look I created? 
Let me know! Follow if you like my blog...it would mean a lot! 💜
Till next time! xoxo

L'oreal (not exactly)true match...

L'oreal (not exactly)true match...
Hi everyone!

I have been using the HD Liquid Coverage Foundation  for a while now, and I absolutely love it (I will give you my review on this one soon 😘). But still I decided that this time I needed something new to try. I heard my best friend praising about the L’Oreal True Match foundation. I kept on wondering about it, and I decided to give this product a try. 
Here is what it looks like:



I really love the presentation of this product: an elegant glass bottle with a plastic pump. The pump mechanism works well. It is also covered with a lid that clicks on securely. The only problem is that the pump can get a little dirty as it can be seen on the pics. But it is not that terrible because it can be cleaned really fast 👍.

So after using it on my oily skin and also on my cousins more dry skin (she wanted to try it too) I think that it's a quite good every day foundation, but maybe not for us 😢


It's not that I hate it cause I love the texture of the product itself. It's lightweight and feels light on the skin, but for me the coverage was a little too light, I have redness and prefer a fuller coverage. I also found it became patchy after some time and also clung to my cousins dry patches. For me, it was also difficult to put it on. I have tried fingers and my brushes. You could see the strokes on my face where it was applied. I finally decided to put it on with my beauty blender but it sat on top of a dry skin.

 
Overall this foundation isn't bad, but it's not the greatest ever either. It doesn't last super long, but that's to be expected as it's not a longwear foundation. Having said that I would not recommend this product for women having extremely dry or extremely oily skin as this product can get too runny at times making the skin too greasy and looking dry. And what do you think about this one?
Hope that my review helped you! Follow!!

Till next time! xoxo
