so here it is the the very first haul of year 2017

i purchased  this amazing mascara by essence for 450 Pkr and the very hyped up la girl hd pro concealer in porcelain  for Pkr 550 so far so good i will be testing these products out for  a week to write down a final verdict on their performance

i bought another clazona matte lipgloss this time in the shade 514, its  a beautiful cool red looks absolutely gorgeous, i know i don't wear red lipstik but i intend to create a gradient lipcolor with this matte lipgloss. the shopkeeper charged me 250 Pkr for this matte lipgloss this time

the highlight of this post is definitely this beautiful choker i purchased from a stall. i really like the contrast of red and green beads paired with the sparkling rhinestone and gold details, now i have to wait for a event to wear it to , lol

Clazona 24 hr matte lipgloss

Every one has been going crazy over the launch of Kylie Jenner lip kits,  i have seen so many rave views that now i am also curious to try out the product and see what the hype is all about but firstly my financial conditions do not allow me to dish out so many dollars for the lipstick secondly its so hard to get a authentic makeup product in Pakistan . i have seen a lot of shady Facebook pages popping up lately claiming that they sell original branded makeup 

so to ease the empty feeling in my heart i decided to order color pop but before i could place my order i discovered this gem of a product manufactured by a local Pakistani brand,

Clazona a pakistani makeup brand is bringing out quality makeup products in the market for a long time and these matte lipgloss are no exceptions

they do exactly what it says on the tube, stay on the lips for 24+ hrs
disclaimer i didnt wear this lip product for that long but one of my friend did went to sleep with this on and it was still on her lips in the morning , no smudging , minimal flaking

Quantity: 6 g

Price: 150- 200 Pkr

Packaging :

just a like an ordinary lipgloss with a doe foot application , tube closes securely so no leakage

About the product: 

its a opaque lipgloss which  drys to a matte finish, has a faint chemical scent, does not budge or smudge , totally water proof , not drying or uncomfortable on the lips , a very thin layer is suitable for flawless applications
drys off quite fast so you have to be very quick when applying it which also means that its very hard to correct mistakes 

do  exfoliate your lips befire applying else its going to look like like your lips are flaking off

survives after meals , very long lasting 

i have this lipgloss in two shade
one in shade # 504 qnd the other in shade #507

Shade #504 is a dusty nude shade looks beautiful and natural on the lips
Shade # 507 is orange brown shade

Tip: to remove it from the lips use a lotion on a cotton ball or tissue 



 here is a pic of the clazona stand I saw

Life Update post 04: makeup organization haul shopping …….

Hello.

I am so excited about the holy month of Ramadan, love all the parts of the holy month ranging from sehri to aftar and long taraweeh nights ,  and then finally shopping for Eid

I hauled a few items , tried out the timotei shampoo on a recommendation of a beauty blogger . I will admit it. This shampoo smells amazing and leaves my hair soft and shiny too

Nivea is a household name so I clearly don’t need to elaborate more about the cream except for the fact that I found a mini size jar and thought it would be very handy to throw it my college bag 

I also purchased another product from the brand oriflame and this time it’s a skin lotion I will be posting a review on this lotion soon 

Can’t get enough of Mua intense kisses lipgloss so just went ahead and ordered my third shade from the range this one is called kiss and makeup

I am running low on my current foundation so bought essence foundation in advance( review already lined up to be posted }. Purchased dip eyeliner on a whim because everyone was raving about it, so far so good

I went shopping with my friends a few days back and came across a lot of local brands who have wide range of makeup products in every color

Picked out some random nail colors

Purchased these Christine eyeliner/lipliners for RS 60 /- each , man they are so soft and pigmented

I don’t have much interest in cooking or baking but these kitchen related stuff looked so cute that I had to take a picture

That’s all for  today’s post

essence xxxl longlasting lipgloss matte in soft nude

Essence has been coming up with a lot new interesting makeup products launched recently, the one which intrigued me most was this matte lipgloss
the whole concept is very interesting besides the color range is small yet versatile from nude to bold an innocent dusty pink, a shade to cater every ones individual personality 

Quanity:4.5 ml

Price about 400- 420 PKR

About the packaging 

stabdart plastic lipgloss tube with a long applicator, very secure cap a thin sponge flexible applicator
sorry i dont know if the applicator has a special name to it

My thoughts:

first of all its smells amazing. pretty much all the essence lip products have a candy like scent, this one smells like caramel. its very moisturizing and has a smooth moose like texture not runny or gloopy at all. in the beging the lips look shiny but after about 5-10 minutes they the gloss drys to semi matte finish
the lasting power is pretty disaaponiting. it hardly survives on my lips for 2 hrs. and when eating or drinking it disppears immediately. i dont know if its the same with the rest of the shades or this shade particularly

i would describe this as a nude brown color, very beautiful goes well with the essence lip liner in the shade" in the nude"

this lipstick can sometimes accentuate fine lines and dry spots on the lips so exfoliate before applying it

in terms of staying power its a bummer but when applied on top of a lipliner it does lasts a bit longer
the color is beautiful so i personally though that reapplication through out the day can be over looked

would you like to try this product out ?

Makeup revolution concealer and lipgloss

Makeup revolution the matte effect concealer in MC Fair 02

Quantity: unknown

Price: 225 pkr

Packaging:

The packaging is a flimsy black plastic casing (very fragile) similar to that of a lipstick.

About the product:

MUR claims it to be matte however I found it to be the quite opposite it us quite creamy an easy to blend and gives medium coverage Does not conceals the dark circles completely. This shade matches my skin color quite well it’s a cream color concealer and has yellow undertone.

This concealer creases under the eyes so setting it with a powder is must

This is a quite choice if you are a teen looking for a concealer having medium coverage however girls who have acne scars should stay clear of this concealer

 Makeup revolution amazing tube lipgloss in touch

I reviewed this lipgloss in shade baby try here and was quite impressed by the formula so I purchased another shade this time a sheer  coral one

Quantity:11ml

Price 225 pkr

About the product:

This a sheer coral lipgloss which has tiny gold sparkles on it this has a faint candy like scent which vanishes on application . the texture is not sticky and feels quite smooth and comfortable on the lips

Totally recommend this lipgloss it’s budget friendly perfect to apply over lipstick  and is non sticky

thats all

Makeup revolution lip power in shade “Life is what you make it"

I really like this whole concept of having lipstick and lip-gloss together in a tube. It saves up space in you clutch and make it easier when you are traveling

I tried out this lip power lipstick lip-gloss duo by makeup revolution and love it

 Makeup revolution Lip power comes in 5 shades

Price: 550 pkr

Packaging:

 Multitasking lip product, having lip-gloss on one end and lipstick on other end. The tube is quite sturdy and travel friendly contains fair amount of product

My thoughts:

It’s a bright almost neon pink color. The lipstick is creamy and gives decent color to the lips in two swipes I find this lipstick a multitasking product as it can also be used a blusher lip-gloss is very pigmented and similar in color to the makeup revolution amazing lipstick in baby try (read review here)

They have mild lemon tart scent to them 

My rating:

I rate it 5 out 5

Makeup Revolution Amazing lipgloss in Natural Pink

Makeup revolution has completely sabotaged my makeup bag all of the products  I have tried so far  are such good price and amazing quality

Quantity : 2.5 g 

Price 225 Pkr

Packaging: the tube is long and sleek with a doe foot applicator. 

About the product

It’s a gorgeous tea pink lip-gloss a shade perfect to pair with smoky eyes or if you are a going for a natural makeup look, it’s not sticky and  applies smoothly on the lips.  You can say that it’s moisturizing. I can’t simply just determine its lasting power as  I can’t help licking it off my lips  the vanilla scent is so sweet hard to resist

This lip-gloss is not too sheer it does give a hint of color to the lips in my opinion this lip-gloss is a steal for the price.

My ratings 

4.5 out of 5
