July 2015 Topbox |
I am pretty happy
with the one I did get though. It included almost all makeup so that is always
a big hit for me.
Let’s see what I
got;
So Susan Rose Quartet Lip and Cheek
Cream full
size
Full size $12A richly-pigmented hydrating lip & cheek pomade that delivers 12 hours of continuous wear without dryness, creasing or smudging.
These cruelty-free lip creams are pigmented, I can confirm that! Such pretty colours! Plus they are very moisturizing. Almost like a balm. I am already sporting the nude peach. I couldn’t wait.
Shu Uemura Essence Absolue
Nourishing Protective Oil deluxe
size
Full size 150ml/$69Multi-use elixir that moisturizes and protects with intense nutrition. Rapidly absorbed into hair fiber, it rebalances the moisture level of dry hair. The soft- sleek velvety oil creates a supple touch with high shine and provides UV protection. Formulated for daily use. Safe on color-treated hair.
At first I wasn’t too excited when I saw this. I was like What? $70 for a hair serum? But holy crap, once I put one little pump into my hair I was hooked. My hair felt so smooth and hydrated. Almost like I just did a hair mask. Even my coworkers tried it out and loved it. It smells great and works like a dream at fixing dry dehydrated hair. I hope this 30ml bottle last me forever. $70? I don’t know if I can go there for a hair product.
Benefit They’re Real! Push Up Liner in Beyond Brown deluxe size
Full size 1.4g/$27
It’s the FIRST EVER lash-hugging gel liner in a pen! This matte gel formula won’t smudge, budge or dry out, and the innovative soft AccuFlex Tip hugs your lashline from corner to corner, the closer line, the bigger the eye!
I have the full size version of the black They’re Real! Push Up Liner which I do enjoy using. I did a review on it here. This AccuFlex Tip does have a bit of a learning curve with it though. I really liked the black liner because it was the blackest matte liner I have. All other gels have a bit of shine to them. From the swatch below, you can see this is a really dark matte brown and once it on and sets, it does not budge.
OFRA Cosmetics Universal Eyebrow
Pencil full
size
Full size $13Can be applied directly to the eyebrow area then smudged gently with a small brush or brow wand applicator. Use a light hand with soft feather strokes for blonde/fair skin and heavier hand for darker brows till you see the color darken with more strokes. The more you apply the brow pencil the darker color you will get.
I have received this before in an Ipsy Glam bag and I was pretty Meh about it. The colour is a dark brown. Of course with a light hand any color will appear lighter but I do not think blondes or red heads will like this pencil. Plus it smudges. I forgot one day and scratch my eyebrow, then scratched my cheek and had brown eye pencil on my face. So this one is a pass for me.
