REVIEW: Makeup Revolutin The One Blush Stick in Matte Malibu

 Hi lovelies!

While some of the other bloggers are shopping in Ljubljana, I'm in my cozy bed with a sore throat.

Since I have nothing else to do, I'm writing this review for you.

I saw this cream stick in some videos of British youtubers. Instantly it landed on my wish list. 

I got it for my birthday and I've been using it ever since

It comes in a black box, with rose gold writing and the top part is in the color of the shade that's inside.

 Inside it's a black matte tube/packaging again with rose gold writing. The thing that bothers me is, that you don't get the name of the shade on the tube. So if i buy more shades in the future, I'll need to put stickers with shades on them.

You get 12g of product.

 The cream is really soft and creamy. Easy to apply and blend.  The shade is a warm brown.

I'm sorry the camera focused the wrong part of the picture!

 I use it before I contour with powder products. It gives a bit of warmth to my face and also is a great base for contouring.

I don't like applying it directly from the tube, but I use my Zoeva 142 Concealer Buffer brush. I dip the brush into the product and then I make a line under my cheekbone, lines down my nose, a bit under my lip (to give the lips more plumped effect) and dots on the sides of my forehead. Then I blend everything in with a damp Nanshy blending sponge.

Sometimes I leave it as it is, but usually I go over with contour powder for more defined contour.

 Here you can see the shade directly from the tube and blended a bit.

It lastS on me all day, I always put a setting powder and fixing spray over my face.

You can get it on Ličila.si for 6.95€ and on the official website for 5£.

Have a lovely day!

REVIEW: Makeup Revolution Mermaids vs Unicorns Eyeshadow Palette

Hi lovelies!

Today I decided to write a review about this beautiful palette. I bough it for my birthday, at the end of May on Ličila.si for 5,95€. 

I'm sorry for the bad pictures, they were taken with my old phone  ;)

 The palette comes in a basic Makeup Revolution packaging. Clear lid, with rose gold writing on the front.

It contains 12 colorful shades (14g) and a dual side applicator.

I miss a mirror in Makeup Revolution Redemtion palettes, but at the same time I like the clear lid, so I can see which palette I'm grabbing.

All of the shades are super pigmented, easy to blend and they last on my eyes (with primer) for a whole day!

No i will tell you little bit more about the colors.

THE GREENS

Shade 1: Shimmery light lime green shade with a bit of yellow in it.

Shade 2: Tururqoise green shimmery shade, that looks lovely with my dark brown eyes.

Shade 3: In the pan it looks similar to shade 2, but it's more minty.

THE BLUES

Shade 4: A nice cool toned light blue, very shimmery and it reminds me of Frozen :P

Shade 5:  Shimmery ocean blue. 

Shade 6:  This one i almost matt, more like a satin matt. But it's a lovely blue shade. It's the most finely milled shade in the palette so it has some fall out and is very fragile.

THE PINKS/PURPLES

Shade 7: Lovely dark ''midnight'' purple, contains tiny little shimmer.

Shade 8:  I don't know why, but this color blew my mind the first time i swatched it, I don't have any shades like this, Dark pomegranate/burgundy/wine shade of pink.

Shade 9: Don't know how to describe this one. A light purple-pink maybe? No idea, but it's a lovely shade.

THE DARKS

Shade 10: Night sky shade of blue, I really love it as an eyeliner actually.

Shade 11: In a pan looks totally different, than it actually is. When swatched it is almost like a duochrome between dark blue and deep purple.

Shade 12: Just a basic black with silver shimmer.

I really like this palette. Usually I am a fan of natural shades, but sometimes I want something more vibrant! Would recommend it to everyone that love something diffrent sometimes.

If you live in Slovenia you can get it at Ličila.si and if you are international reader, you can get it at Makeup Revolution site.

Have you tried any of Makeup Revolution palettes? Is there any of their palettes that I need to have?

Have a lovely day!

Makeup Revoltion Iconic Pro Lipstick in Duel

Hi lovelies,

about a month ago Makeup Revolution came out with new line of lipsticks, called Iconic Pro.

There is a mix of creamy and matte shades, some shades are avalible in both finishes, wich i think is genius.

 Each lipstick comes in a black box, with rose gold writing and a sticker with the colour and name of the shade on top. 

 The packaging is a copy of MAC lipsticks, wich i really like, since i've been in love with MACs packaging. It glossy black, with rose gold ring in the middle and rose gold writing. The tube is really nice and it stays closed when it's in my bag.

 On the bottom you can see the shade, name and number of lipstick.

 Mine is in the shade Duel, a creamy formual of cool toned red with blue undertones.  It is really creamy after you break trough the top layer, The smell is heavy vanillia but you can't smell it while you're wearing it. Since it's a creamy finish it won't last as long as i would like, it will leave a stain, but you would have to reapply it every 2 hours, more if you're eating and drinking.

I think they are really good, for the price and the shade range is quite big, also i like the selection of finishes. I have my eye on few more shades :D

You can get Iconc Pro lipstick on Makeup Revolution site for 3,46€ and on Ličila.si for 4,95€.

Did you try Iconic Pro lipsicks? 

Let me know ;)

Have a grat day!

*Lipstick was set to me.

REVIEW: Makeup Revolution Redemption Palette Matte Brights

Hello lovelies :)

I recently started to experiment with some more bright colours, but since my make up collection is more neutral oriented with dark colours, I needed some bright palettes. I layed my eyes on this baby. It looks bright as hell and I was interested in the quality of the Makeup Revolution palettes since they came to Slovenia

The packaging is quite big, black with a see trough lid. It is quite similar to MUA packaging, except much bigger. It contains 12 different colours, all matte and looking very bright in the pan. All together there is 14 g of product. You also get a double sided spondge applicator with the palette (I take them out as soon as I get the palette).

The pans are narrow and long. I had no problem with picking product, because my eyeshadow brushes are quite small, but using big brushes with this palette can be hard and problematic. Picking up product generates quite a bit of dust in the pans, and because pans are so narrow you soon have one shade mixing with another.

Sadly the quality of s shadows is quite poor. They mostly go on the lids nicely, with the exception of white, light blue, yellow and light pink, these colours need a bit more packing on to show. There was no fallout while using any of the shadows. They also blend nicely. The main problem is that they do not last a long time on the lids. No matter what I tried they did not last more than 3 hours on me and than they just melted off my lids. I have very oily lids, but most of my other eyeshadows stay intact for at least 7 hours (MUA, Sleek and even Makeup Revolution Mono Eyeshadows).

Here are the swatches. I had to scratch the light blue shadow from the pan to get some pigmentation out of it, now I have a big canyon in my shadow. Orange,the two pinks, purple, both greens and a darker blue all swatch very nicely and also perform very well on the lids. 

I really did not want to write a negative review, but that is how I see this palette. I will keep it for playing around, but it is not wearable, because it does not last long enough for me (I love the colours. I already have some of the Makeup Revolution products and I really like them. I heard other palettes are better so I would advise you to try those, but I do not see any reason to buy this palette. 

Do you have any of Makeup Revolution products? What Is your experience with them?

I love their mono eyeshadows an lipsticks and I just got two of their cream blushes (I heard they are great).

Have a nice day ;)

April favourites ~ Tjaša

Hello lovelies :)

April is finaly over! I seriously thought that will never happen, such a crazy month :) I used a bit more make up on the daily basis as I usually do, so I thought a favourites post would be in place :)

Please enjoy :)
