EX1 Delete Fluide Concealer | Review and swatch

Image
The EX1 fluide concealer has recently launched and I decided to pick that up with the foundation. I brought the EX1 Invisiwear Foundation in shade 7.0 which was formerly shade F300 and the EX1 Fluid Concealer in shade 6.0. EX1 Invisiwear Foundation shade 7.0 I have done a review on the foundation previously in more detail which can be found HERE . For a short summary about this foundation I will say that it does feel lightweight, and now that I own a few foundations I can say that looking back now that this wasn't the most strongest yellow/golden pigmented foundation I own. When it's swatched it does look warm but more neutral than yellow/golden such as Maybelline Fit Me in 220 or Mac Studio Fix NC40 in comparison. Even though it's not that yellow/golden as they range suggests it, it works well and has a rich pigmented formula in the foundation to adapt to your skintone perfectly. I don't know if they have changed the formula since I owned the last bottle in F3...

Earthnicity Mineral Concealer in 'Honey' Review

Earthnicity Mineral Concealer in 'Honey' Review   Oh my days I totally love this concealer and was surprised what a difference it makes to my skin. Since I've moved onto mineral makeup for everyday use I thought I'd add a concealer to my collection as I already use Earthnicity's Natural Buff Mineral Foundation. I switch between Alima Pure's Foundation and Earthnicity's and wanted a concealer powder for brightening up under my eyes forehead, cheeks, anywhere where I get redness like sides of my nose and darker pigmented areas.  Honey Is a light pale shade with a slight yellow tint to it so its perfect for brightening. It compliments really well with the Natural Buff foundation shade which I use. Honey is lighter than my skin tone as I wanted something to brighten up areas. The next shade down I think they have is called Sand which I think would of matched my skin exactly but then wouldn't of brightened up areas on my face; I usually like ...

Studio 78 Paris Anti-Dark Circles Concealer - 'Off We Go' Review

Studio 78 Paris Anti-Dark Circles Concealer 'Off We Go' Review  I   have this concealor in the shade '01 Dawn'. I was going to repurchase my Afterglow concealer which is perfect but abit expensive once you add on the P & P aswell which put me off . I always love trying new things so my sister recommended this to me. I got this on the Naturismo website when they had a promotion so I got this for £18 I think or around that price.  I noticed the pot had a good amount of concealer in it which I was chuffed about. I did think in the begining this shade was abit light for me, but once blended in with my Eco Tools concealer brush (which I've also reviewed!) this product went on really smooth and flawless looking. Shade 01 At Dawn - I think this shade could suit alot of lighter skin tones than me, it's quite neutral toned, and looks like a creamy beige shade. I think if your upto an NC42 this could possibly suit you, any darker then the second sha...

Afterglow Cosmetics Organic Triple Eye Treatment Concealer Review

Image
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 ...

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.  ...
