Annabelle | Marcelle Awesomeness

by - March 30, 2014

Hi Makeupnuts! Today I want to share with you my new goodies from Annabelle and Marcelle.

Annabelle |  Marcelle 40% off order

Recently,  Annabelle Cosmetics and Marcelle Cosmetics (sister companies of Marcelle Group) had a 40% off sale to celebrate International Women’s Day.
I went a little cuckoo. I placed my first Annabelle order about 10 minutes into the sale LOL. I then placed another order when I realized I forgot to buy the CC base Luminous Finish. Then I went over to Marcelle.ca and put an order in for the DD cream and a few other goodies. 40% is a huge incentive :)

What I got:

from Marcelle
Lux Metallic Liquid Eyeliner Goldmine
Duo Eyebrow-PRO Dark
Lux Gloss Cream Rose Tendre
DD Cream Daily Defense SPF 25 Light to Medium

from Annabelle
CC Colour Control Instant Perfecting Base Luminous Finish
Trendy Basics - TwistUp Retractable Lipstick Crayon - Divine
Essential Nudes - TwistUp Retractable Lipstick Crayon - Romance
Trendy Basics - TwistUp Retractable Lipstick Crayon - Fizz
Skinny Brow Liner Universal Dark

First Impressions:
The TwistUp Retractable Lipstick Crayons are very pigmented creamy. Made with Omega 3 and Shea Butter, I find these TwistUps very moisturizing. I can have a scraggly lip day and these soothe and cover up any mess. Divine has been in my purse, pocket, on hand every day since I got it.

I got a few backups of the Skinny Brow Liners. I love them for filling my brows in. They are waterproof and kind of goof proof. I also got the Marcelle Duo Eyebrow – Pro because I wanted to try the brow gel. I just hope it isn’t too dark. I will review it once I use it a few times.

The Marcelle DD cream is a pretty nice moisturizer. I have only used it twice but I like it so far. I need to use it a bit more in order to really form an opinion I want to share. But so far based on my experience, I now want to give the Marcelle CC cream a try.  The DD cream has a 10 in 1 multi-benefits, the CC cream has 12 in 1 multi-benefits for your skin. I already have the Annabelle CC Cream in Natural which I use as an everyday primer. So I wanted to give the CC Cream Luminous Finish a go. I am such a junkie!

    1. Romance is such a gorgeous shade. The TwistUps apply so well.
      Unfortunately Annabelle only ships with Canada and the US. Hopefully in the future?

    1. I have been grabbing the DD cream everyday - makeup or no makeup. My skin just gets a healthy glow from it. The coverage is sheer though. If you want more coverage the Marcelle CC cream is the one to go for.

      I am loving the DD cream. But I do need to add a moisturiser when I wear it. Right now anyhow. I actually got a compliment at the dentist office this week. The hygenist asked what I had on a tinted moisturizer? a founation? cuz it looked great. I was like ahhh ohh thanks. Her hands were in my mouth LOL
