Faces cosmetics Long Wear Eye pencil- review, swatches

Hi girls,
Hope you are well and happy. I have reviewed many products before from Faces Cosmetics and I'm really loving them. Today I'm going to review another product from Faces Cosmetics and this time it's their Long Wear Eye pencil which is very nice in quality and it can prove to be quite useful in this festive season so take a look at what I have to say about it-


Faces Long Wear Eye Pencil
 Faces Long Wear Eye Pencil is a soft pencil eye liner which is really good in use & long lasting.


What Faces Cosmetics says
Soft gentle pencils in a rainbow of shades. Use them to enhance your natural eye color for dramatic effect or give you that bright-eyed glow. Gentle and safe for sensitive eyes.

Weight
1.15 g.

Price
Rs.249

Packaging

 

 The packaging is simple and cute. It comes in a pencil shape with a black cap.

Shade
 It comes in many beautiful shades. The shade I'm reviewing is gray which gives a soft, smokey look to my eyes.

Texture
It has very soft and creamy texture and glides like a gel liner.

Lasting power

It stays for really long hours on my eyes, very long lasting. In fact I never imagine about so long stay from it but it made me really impressed.

In the mirror of my own Experience



I had been using the same shade eye pencil from Revlon which I loved so much. To be honest, I'd never imagined of this eye pencil to be of so high quality. But after using it I was so impressed now it has become my favorite & the first choice!! It's so smooth and most pigmented eye pencil that requires maximum of one swipe for getting desired result. When I need an instant eye makeup, It's the first, I apply on my eyes first on eye lid then in my waterline, and it instantly brightens my face and give a healthy and soft look. I love its creamy and smooth texture. It's completely waterproof and the staying power is really impressive. It can stay for the whole day on my eyes. I have found every quality in this pencil what I wished from a good brand's eye pencil.

Good points
Love its soft and creamy texture.
It's one of the most pigmented eye pencil that I have ever used.
It's a beautiful matte gray color pencil.
Very smooth and easy to apply.
Gives my eyes a instant soft look.
Very useful for an instant eye makeup.
Completely waterproof and smudge proof.
Reasonable price.
Safe for sensitive eyes.
Strong staying power.


Bad points
 Ingredients list not mentioned.
It needs to be sharpened so leads to a bit of product wastage.
For removing, one needs a good makeup remover.
Availability is a problem because it's not available generaly in all cosmetic stores. 

Finally
Finally I'm so impressed about this eye pencil. It has given a hard competition to many good brands like Revlon and Colorbar. I love its quality. I would love to check out some other shades too. 


Rating
4.75/5


Recommendation
I recommend it to all my readers and friends to check out this high quality eye pencil. They have a big color range so in this festive season you should check it out. I'm sure you'll love them.


Availability

Available at all faces counters & in some cosmetic stores.

Faces Cosmetics Moisture Rich lipstick- Review, Swatches & LOTD


Facescosmetics has made a good market in India. I have noticed that Indian ladies are alwaysinterested to check out their new range products. The reason is clear; they havefine such a quality, big range of products to choose from and of coursereasonable price of their products. I have used many things of this brand and Ihave been seldom disappointed. You have read some reviews on Chamber ofBeauty about this brand earlier and today I’m going to do another review ofthis brand & this time it's a lipstick. I know many of my readers wouldhave used its lipsticks and I’m sure they would have wanted to know my opinionabout their lipsticks too.

Faces Moisturizing Rich Lipstick


Faces Lipsticks are enriched with Vitamin E and Jojoba oiland is available in many shades.

 Price
Rs 349 for 3.2 gms 



Packaging


 

This lipstick comes in ablack outer cover. The lipstick has a beautiful black packaging & the shadeis visible through a transparent bottom

Texture


The texture is creamy and has a silky and smooth finish.Itfeels so  light weight on the lips but does need a lip balm underneathbecause it's unable to moisturize the lips itself.

Shade
  
Pink passion 01 is milky pink witha bit shimmers which aren't visible actually, only make it creamy and light.


In the mirror of my own experience


One can love this lipstick only after seeing its packagingbecause it's really classic & gorgeous. But if i talk about quality, it me a bitdisappointed because it's not as pigmented as I expected. It's not capable of making my lips moist. The first time when I applied it, my lips felt dry. I don'tmean that it makes my lips dry but if I don't apply a good lip balm underneathmy lips before wearing this lipstick, my lips will feel dry which I don't like. This lipstick is not good for me in winter at all. But still I love thislipstick because when I apply it after applying a lip balm, the finish andeffect is so beautiful. I love its baby pink shade which has a milky effect in it.It gives me a natural and healthy look. The texture is creamy and very lightweight which I like. The staying power is good, it stays on for about 4-5 hour easilyso the lasting power is not bad. The only flaw is it being less moisturizing which Ihope the company will try to improve.

Good points
I love itsbeautiful packaging.
Nice lightfragrance.
Creamy andlight weight texture.
Stays long for 4-5 hours without any problem.
Available in many shades, I love their variety of shades.
Contains Vitamin E and jojoba oil which are fine for the lips.
Reasonable price.

Two swipes

Bad points
Theonly bad point which I have mentioned above, is it being less moisturizing andalways need a lip balm before applying it. I think it's a big disappointment. 

LOTD

Rating
3.5/5

Finally

Finally Ican say that I love this lipstick in spite of some disappointing points. It's agood brand which has proved itself through all its products. It has everythingwhich a common Indian customer wished ever, classy packaging, good quality,huge range and still reasonably priced. The current cosmetic brands which areavailable in India at this time are either verycostly in price or very cheap in quality so I love this brand and want to checkout its products again and again.

Recommendation

I wouldlove to recommend this lipstick to my readers but want to make alert about thebad point of this lipstick so if you buy it, don't forget to apply a lip balmunderneath your lips. I would love to try its matte range too in future.

Faces Cosmetics i-shine Quartet- Review, swatches & FOTD



Hi beauties

We all women are super greedy when it comes about the cosmetics especially eyeshadows, even if we have a big collection of every color we still want to check out the latest launches of various brands..hhaha..isn’t it true?

When I had seen this quad from Faces on their website since then I couldn’t forget it but unfortunately Faces cosmetics not available in my city. I wanted to buy some of its products in trip of Kolkata but unluckily, that trip schedule was too tight that I had to miss that chance. But I’m happy that I got a chance to try it out and I’m really impressed with this quad.

Faces i-Shine Eyeshadow Quartet-Green 4

This contains four eye shadows in it with a nice little applicator. All are very pigmented and shimmery as well.

Net weight

4g

Price

Rs 499 ($12 approx)

Packaging

I really love the packaging of this quad. It’s so classy and beautiful. A shiny black round case with a transparent lid through which all the shades are visible. Very handy & travel-friendly!

Shades

There are four lovely shades in this quad.

Color 1: Shiny metallic teal green with a touch of blue in it - This is a very pretty color, but unfortunately this lovely color is the least pigmented of this quad. It applies nicely on the lids and shows clearly but in the pictures, it is not much visible.

Color 2: Hina green- This shade is dark green like Hina with some silver shimmers. This one is quite pigmented, applies very decently and looks so nice on the lids.

Color 3: Plum Purple- I love this color, this one is my most favorite color of this quad. Super pigmented. It applies beautifully on the lids and blends well.

Color 4: Yellowish green- This is a pretty color, very intensive on the lids, applies easily and looks so fine.

In the mirror of my own experience

After swatching all four shades on my hands, I had noticed their pigmentation and was very excited to apply them on my eyes. I had known that the sky blue shade is not as intensive as rest of colors because for swatching , I had to apply it again and again on my hand to show the color. The same thing I had to do on my lids but rest of the shades was highly intensive on the lids. I didn’t use any primer on my lids but if I would have used a primer the shades were more pop out, I’m sure about it.

Anyways, one shade can be ignored because the rest of the three shades are super pigmented and the amazing thing is that they don’t have much fall out while applying them. The finishing of the colors are beautiful after applying them on the lids but unfortunately they don’t show such in the photos(I’m talking about the pictures of my eyes) as they are in real. It’s strange, that they are showing well on the hands; even on the lids in reality but not good in the photos. But anyways, it’ll look even beautiful if I use a good primer under the shadows.

Good points

First, I love it lovely packaging, it so classy.

The color combination is gorgeous; one can love just after seeing these shades.

The lasting power is just wonderful. They can stay easily for about 4-5 hours without any primer underneath and about 7-8 hours with a good primer. Isn’t amazing?

All colors are vibrant except the light blue shade, apply so well on the lids and after applying the beauty of colors can’t be explained.

The purple one is a unique shade which can’t be found easily even in my 80 color palette. I can tell you for sure that I can purchase this can again even for this gorgeous shade.

Very reasonable price.

From R-L: Color 1, 2, 3 ,4

Bad points

The teal green is not much pigmented but I wish it was so that could have made this an ideal quad.

All the shades are very shimmery so matte lovers will not like it.

Final thoughts

Finally I love this quad. All colors are super intensive. The color combination is exquisite. Green and purple suits all skin tones. The packaging, the quality, the pigmentation and of course the cost, all are excellent. I love this quad.

Here I did an FOTD with the eyemakeup from this quad. Here I have used all the shades of this quad, believe me, these shades was looking fabulous and so vibrant but that intensively I can't see in these pictures.





Recommendation

I highly recommend this lovely quad to my readers especially girls, because they can easily afford it from their pocket money and grow their eye shadow collection. They can happily create different makeup looks with this quad so girls, grab this gorgeous quad and create some lovely looks!!!!

3.7/5

So ladies and girls, what do you think about this quartet, isn't it gorgeous? If you have tried it then please share your precious experience with me :D
