Suede blush...ideal for nude looks!!!!!

Hello beautiful readers,
I know very well that you all are eagerly waiting for the thereviews of Suede Blush and Pout Polish Bare Minimum of Nude collection from Sleek Makeup. I read all your mails and I'm aware of that. Today I’m going toreview the Suede blush from Nude collection.

Nude collection Suede Blush



Sleek Suede Blush is a Matte Cinnamon Brown with Pink Undertones and a perfect combination with nude lips or eyes.

Price
£4.29

What Sleek Makeup says

Sleek MakeUP’s Nude collection wraps up your autumn beauty look in one warm, earthy and wearable collection. Suede is a warm, tawny matte blush that elicits a wintery mocha glow. Use a contour brush to define and sculpt the cheeks, or use a large fluffy brush and swirl the colour on to the apples of the cheeks for a natural, radiant complexion. Wear with Au Naturel i-Divine and Bare Minimum Pout Polish for the natural look at its best!

Packaging

It comes in a beautiful slim box. Inside it we find a wide mirror on one side & the blush on the other. The packaging is very handy to carry out for traveling.

Ingredients


Shade


It's a mixture of brown and peach which gives the cheeks a beautiful look.


Texture


 The texture is velvety, soft, smooth and silky. A light touch will be enough for define your cheeks.

In the mirror of my own experience


 looks as if the butterfly is also loving this blush!!

I have already written about my excitement about this collection. I always have been a lover for a nude collection. I have collected many nude lipsticks and shadows but my wish to get a complete collection was never fulfilled. When I saw this blush I really appreciated this wonderful creation of Sleek Makeup. No other shade can be better than this shade for a nude collection. The quality of this blush is fantastic. A light touch of it with a brush is enough to get a gorgeous look. The texture is so smooth, applies on the cheeks like a dream.

The shade is so beautiful and perfect for every skin colors. Even it'll look pretty on dark skin tones because the beautiful  finish which it gives to the cheeks, no matter what your skin color is, looks amazing.
I love its lasting power too. Very easily stays for 5 to 6 hours on my cheeks. I accept it becomes lighter after 4 or five hours but it doesn't fade in patches. Even the lighter finish also looks beautiful. One could get longer wears by using a primer or a cream blush underneath.

Good points
At first I love its slim handy packaging.
It's a dreamy shade for a nude makeup.
The texture is smooth, silky and very beautiful for applying and blending.
Perfect for fair, medium skin tones even for dark skin.
The finish which obtains after applying it is adorable.
Staying power is very impressive.
The price is as always like a steal.
Can be purchased online very easily. They ship world wide.

Bad points
Not ideal for dark skin tones, it can give them a pretty finish but not color.
Not available in India so many ladies who don't use internet are not able to get it on shops.

Finally...
Finally, as I already have told that it's an Eid gift for me. Nude looks always attract me and Sleek Makeup, through this collection has made it such an easy task to get a perfect nude look. Another superb product from Sleek Makeup.

Recommendation
If you are a nude makeup looks lover, grab this collection. No doubt, this a perfect collection for beautiful nude looks.

Makeup For ever Rouge artist lipstick- review, Swatches & pics



Hi ladies

Today I’m reviewing about my first Make up for ever lipstick which I bought from Sephora.com. I received it yesterday only and now I’m very much in love with this lippie. So today this is just a quick review about this lipstick. Check it out!!

Rouge Artist Intense lipstick


What it is:

A highly pigmented, long-lasting lipstick that delivers rich color in one stroke.



What it does:


Formulated with 50% more pigment than the traditional lipstick, Rouge Artist Intense gives an immediate true-to-color result. A blend of three natural waxes, the creamy texture glides on effortlessly for a long-lasting hold. The extensive color and texture range provides unlimited creativity.

Rouge Artist Intense lipstick-


Shade-

This is a satin orange beige shade 24. Very different from the other nude and orange shades that I have. It is not an exact nude color but quite close to it.

Packaging-

The packaging is not as impressive as the quality and shade. In my opinion it should have been even better.

Price- $19

My experience-


When I ordered this lipstick, I was afraid about the exact color which I wanted, because I was not sure that the shade would be the same as I had seen in the shade card list but when it came and I opened it, I jumped with joy because the shade was exactly the same. :D ?I’m very happy to get the perfect shade that I have always wanted. Today I quickly wanted to show it to all my readers so this is just a quick and short review about this lipstick. Till now I’ve only tried it on my hand for the swatches but as soon as I do a look using it I’ll show it to all of you.


Some reasons to love this lipstick-

It’s very much pigmented. Only one swipe is enough to get the right color.

It gives a satin effect to my lips.

The texture is smooth and soft.

It’s quite moisturizing.

I’m really in love with the shade of this lipstick.


The shade is wearable for daily basis so I can use it often.

Staying power seems to be good.

Here are the swatches-


Some reasons why I don’t love this lipstick-


I don’t like the packaging as mentioned above also.

The price is not reasonable.

It’s not available in my city.

Overall this lipstick is great; especially the shade and the pigmentation.

Rating- 4.25/5

So what’s your opinion about this lipstick? Have you tried this lipstick or this shade? Would love to know ?
