Afterglow Cosmetics Organic Triple Eye Treatment Concealer Review

Afterglow Organic Triple Eye Treatment in Praline

Absolutely love this concealer! This was my first well spent concealer...and I've hit pan and pretty much completed the Jar in over a year now. I love the fact it is a natural treatment and a concealer in one pot not to mention anti ageing.

Shade
It doesn't clog pores in the eye area, a little goes a long way with this product as its so pigmented you don't really need to layer it on. one coat is enough for me. I have to say when I first got the Jar I was shocked as I thought it was so small (which it is), but its money well spent as its lasted me aaaaaages and gives brilliant coverage which is perfect for my skin tone. If your round an NC35 to NC42 then Praline is the perfect shade for you, specially if your warm, golden or olive toned, it will blend in well. It's a semi-matte to dewy finish and brightens up the eye area.

The ingredients are organic and natural which is the most important thing for me, specially if it's something you are going to use everyday.

Ingredients:
cocos nucifera (organic coconut) oil, simmondsia chinensis (organic jojoba) seed extract, cera alba (organic beeswax), theobroma cacao (organic cocoa) seed butter, althaea officinalis (organic marshmallow) extract, camelia sinensis (organic white tea) extract, titanium dioxide (CI 77891), iron oxide (CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499)

 My Final Thought:
I have used this product everyday for the past year and 3 months without fail (unless I got the flu and stuck in bed!), it gives a lovely glowy bright eyed natural complexion under the eyes. I have like most Asian women dark brown circles round the eyes and the eye bags, and this does wonders to cover them. This concealer doesn't crease or sheer or fade out, it stays put all day.

The only down side is that it is a little on the expensive side but I see on the Afterglow cosmetics website they sometimes have a sale on them in the UK website, so its best to try get them then.

I feel good using an all natural and organic product round the eyes, its the most sensitive part of your face so its best to take care of it, and look good at the same time!

I will probably purchase this again in the near future, I might just see if I can find cheaper alternatives (got my eye on the Studio 78 eye concealer), but this will be my favourite for now, unless I come across a miracle product at a lower cost, but natural/organic and budget buys don't really seem to go together...HMM!

It's Pure Organics Herbal Hair Colour Dark Brown | Review

Natural Hair Dye by It's Pure Organics in Dark Brown Review All I can say is wish I knew about this dye sooner!    My hair history this past year...I've gone through pregnancy hair loss and dryness, not to mention having a no dye period when I was pregnant. This is why I went crazy with the dyes once my LO was born! I ombre'd my hair which meant my ends were bleached twice, coloured and used toners many times to keep ends dark blonde and ashy. Then semi colours on the roots/mid length to keep my hair and a few greys dark and glossy. So all this basically meant my hairs been in a really dry, brittle and frizzy state. It's ruined my natural waves all because of wanted an ombre. Something I'll never do again as its hard maintain when you naturally have dark hair that has a tendency to go orange tinged. I've had regular trims which have helped but after a while hair starts too look rough, lacking lustre and no shine. I think this is partially due to a bad...

Naturtint Permanent Hair Dye in 6N Dark Blonde and 7N Hazelnut Blonde| Review

Image
So over the past year I have tried a few different hair dyes, toners mainly from drugstores like Boots or Superdrugs and I always seem to come back to the Naturtint range. I find the coverage and the shade very much close to whats on the box, my hair NEVER ends up going jet black which it has done from other dye brands. I especially like the 'Natural/Neutral' range in Naturtint, its not too warm or too cool, just a very natural mid brown toned shade and I love it. I usually swap between 5N and 6N depending if i wanted to go abit darker or lighter. Over the summer I decided to mix 6N and 7N to see if I could go abit more lighter so I mixed both shades together. I have asian dark brown practically looking black hair and when I use the shade 5N I get a nice medium to dark brown shade to my hair.  When I want to get a more light medium brown shade thats more prominant and noticable then I usually go for 6N which I'd say is the perfect...

EX1 Invisiwear Liquid Foundation & EX1 Delete Concealer Review and Swatches

Image
EX1 Invisiwear Liquid Foundation This brand is fairly new and was founded by Farah Naz. Like many asians its hard to find foundations that match your skin tone perfectly. Some are too pink toned, high street brand only go upto a certain shade which doesn't cater for asian complexions or you find a shade but the brand is too expensive! Farah Naz has brought out a range specifically for olive skin tones. When she says olive, it means its suitable for Middle Eastern, Asian, South American or Mediterranean skintones. Shade: I came across EX1 Costmetics on twitter, Faryal Makhdoom posted a picture of some of the products and it intrigued me to visit their website. I read somewhere that they now have the brand in Topshop in Oxford Street so I went and purchased the shade F300. I did swatch the F200 in store but I think thats more of an NC 25-30 shade. F300 is perfect for NC35-40 skintone which is me. NC40 or NC42 onwards is probably the F400. F400 is a medium-tan colour.  ...
