Mineral Eyeshadows by Nature's Birilliance by Sue- Review, Swatches & EOTD

Hi lovelies

How are you? Recently I’ve changed my blog’s appearance for a change & hope you all liked it!!!

Today I’m reviewing some mineral eye shadows and a mineral lip color which I received from Nature brilliance by Sue about two months ago but due to a very busy schedule I couldn’t do their review and I’m feeling bad for them. Actually I want to write more and more but I think I’m bit lazy & there are always some probs or the other going one!

Anyways, let’s take a look!

Mineral eye shadows

They are five samples eye shadows & one full jar.

All are different in colors. The quantity which I received is sufficient for applying them contentedly three to four times.

Shades

They are five in shades. All shades have their own name. Golden Rose, Peach Sunset, Rose Garden, Prime Rose and Mocha …lovely names… aren’t they?

Golden Rose

This is a beautiful shimmery pinkish brown color, to which I can apply on the half of my lid, sometimes on crease or whole of my eyelids.

Peach Sunset

This one is a light peachy orange shade which is perfect for my whole lids and sometimes only on the inner corner of my lids. It’s a bit shimmery and very fine in texture.

Rose Garden

This is very unique color a bit orangey maroon type which is perfect for the outer corner of the eyes and the crease as well. Very fine and demanding color.

Prime Rose

This one is so beautiful a bit shimmery fuchsia pink which looks gorgeous on the lids. It’ll be perfect for festival wears like Lehnga and Sari.

Mocha

Mocha is a bit dull brown with shimmers. I love this to define my outer corner of the eyes with some light color shadow.

Good points

All shades are beautiful and intensive in color.

The texture is powdery but do not have much fall out.

Easily spreads on the lids and without any primer, I get the exact color.

Very light weight on lids, never feel awkward or heavy.

All shadows are equal in quality.

The texture is as fine as a creamy eye shadow. Spreads on the lids and look very fine and classy.

The price is very reasonable to see the qualities and as a mineral shadows.

The range of colors of these shadows is very wide so you can choose your favorites one very easily.

They shipped world wide so these shadows can be bought comfortably from their website.

The products reach safely within two weeks to you.

Each shadow has a name so you can choose your favorite shade very easily.

Bad points

Due to a mineral shadow the texture is powdery so a bit fall out you will have to allow.

All shades are a bit shimmery, so you can’t apply them on your casual wear but if you apply them in combination with matte shadows, it should be acceptable.

Final thoughts

Finally I love these mineral eye-shadows. They all are so light weight and fine in texture. Spreading beautifully on the lids, the color intensity is great. The range of colors is large and wide. There are many beautiful colors in their range so you can get your right color very easily. I love the effects of these eye colors on my eye-lids. These are really impressive.

Apart from these sample shadows I also have another mineral eyeshadow- 016S which is a maroon shade with beautiful silver shimmers. it decorates the eyes very well & looks gorgeous on the lids <3 Again very pigmented but has a bit fall out.



Did an EOTD with these...check it out:

I've used- 016S in the outer corner & Peach sunset on the lids

Recommendation

I surely recommend my readers to try these mineral shadows.

Lip gloss

This a lovely summery lip color to which I can use as a color lip balm. I received it in a very cute sample jar.

Shade- Peach Sunset

The shade is very pretty. It’s an orangey nude shade which looks appealing on the lips but is not much visible.

In the mirror of my own experience

I was not excited when I was going to apply it first because when I had applied it on my hand for swatching, it seemed like a colorless lip balm but it was looking lovely on my lips and showing a nude orange color which was looking so natural & moisturizing.!

LOTD

So girl what do you think about these impressive mineral products??? I'm loving them...are you??

Nature's Brilliance By Sue- Butter lipstick, Mineral Blush/Eye color- Review & swatches

Hi ladies,
Hope everyone is doing well!!

Today's review is all about these lovely products so take a look:


They are a Mineral Color Set including:
Cranberry Butter lipstick
Mineral Blush/Eye color



So firstly I'm gonna review this Cranberry Butter Lipstick in the shade: 002LS Bronze Star

Ingredients:
Ingredients: Pure Cranberry Butter (Pure Cranberry Fruit, Shea Butter, Jojoba), Certified Organic Jojoba Oil, Lecithin (Vegetable Source), Castor Seed Oil, Cetyl Stearyl Alcohol (Vegetable Source), Olive Fruit Oil, Beeswax, Soybean Lipids, Carnauba Wax, Candelillia Wax, Natural Vitamin E, Grapefruit Seed Extract, Mica, Iron Oxide.


Packaging:

The packaging is pretty impressive...comes in a black covering packing body and opens easily with a click....something like revlon matte lippies!!

Price:
$10

Shade

It’s a tea rose pink or some kind of dirty brownish pink shade with shimmers. The shimmer with this shade looks so pretty!!

Texture

The texture of this lipstick is creamy and buttery. The pigmentation is wonderful. It spreads so softly on my lips in only one or two swipes.

In the mirror of my own experience

To be honest when I first opened this lipstick I was not much impressed because I don’t like shimmery lip colors and I have often noticed that the lipsticks of many famous brands which include shimmers in them are not much pigmented. Sometimes after applying only shimmer particles show on the lips which looks quite weird. And that was my first impression about this lipstick as well but after applying it on my hand, I was totally proved wrong because it’s highly pigmented with such a creamy and buttery texture. The shade looks so pretty…God I’m very impressed. I have used it 2 times. The lasting power of this lipstick is also quite impressive. This lipstick is available in 22 different shades HERE.

Good points

The texture of this lipstick is creamy, soft & velvety.

Pigmentation is amazing.

The required shade only needs one or two swipes.

I love its lasting power: 5-6 hour without reapplying.

The ingredient of this lipstick is totally natural so there is no need to fear for harmful chemical on your lips.

Very light weight.

Can be worn with both light or dark outfits.

It’s water proof. You can drink your favorite drink without any tension of your shade getting fade.

Bad points

Just a small bad point which I feel should be mentioned and that is, the silver shimmers in the lipstick are not easy to remove using a common cleanser.

Final thoughts

I love this lipstick. Love its texture, its shade and pigmentation. This lipstick can make your evening pleasant.

So now let's come on to the Mineral Blush/Eye color

It’s a mineral blush plus eye shadow. One can use it in both ways.

Shade

It’s a light tea rose pink shade very much similar with lipstick with silver shimmers. The shade is quite incentive.

Texture

It’s a mineral powdery texture which is very easily spread on both of the eyelids and cheeks.

In the mirror of my own experience

During applying at first time, it seems quite shimmery on my eyes and on the cheeks which was a bit uncomfortable. But next time when I applied it, I was careful about it and gave a light touch on my lids and cheeks. Then blended it with my Revlon mineral powder. And the result was quite impressive. The light shimmers gave my face a healthy glow and it looked natural as well. So I have decided to apply it lightly in the future. But for any festivals or special occasions, the shimmers will look adorable.

Good points

It's mineral so won't harm your skin.

Works as a blush and eye shadow at the same time so no need to take an extra blush or shadow.

Gives a very pretty and healthy glow to your cheeks and eyes.

It absorbs so wonderfully in your skin as if a part of your skin’s natural glow.

Bad points

The texture is powdery so there is a lot of fallout but as you can use it as a blush so you can blend it after applying on the lids.

If you don’t want to apply it as a blush you have to remove it with your foundation. So if you want to save your foundation, apply your foundation after applying the shadow on your lids.

It’s so shimmery so you shouldn't wear it with a daily wear or for office.

Final thoughts

Finally I can say that it’s a lovely product. Being a mineral product I can use it without any tension. It can make your festival look beautiful.
