I feel like I haven’t done a haul post in forever. It isn’t like I haven’t purchased anything. When I bought my ‘Grey Friday’ lipstick from MAC I also purchased three eyeshadows for my kit. Anyway, after Thanksgiving Cherry Culture had a decent sale going, which included an additional 20% off of your order so I took it upon myself to order a few products I’ve wanted to try, such as the following:
LA Girl Pro Concealers
These concealers have been all the rage amongst beauty bloggers, bloggers, as well as some makeup artists. Cherry culture had them on sale for $2.50! I wound up buying all 18 shades. I think this was a great purchase. The consistency of the concealers are good, and the coverage is excellent. They blend easily as well. So far, I’m impressed. I’m happy I got all 18 so now I have shades for my kit.
Description: Crease-resistant, opaque coverage in a creamy yet lightweight texture. The long-wearing formula camouflages darkness under the eyes, redness and skin imperfections. Provides complete, natural-looking coverage, evens skin tone, covers dark circles and minimizes fine lines around the eyes. Chamomile extract & vitamin C & E. Includes brush-tip applicator for easy application.
Here are swatches of four of the concealers I posted on instagram if you would like for me to swatch all of them just let me know.
NYX Matte Bronzer
I’ve wanted to purchase these since they came out. I do not like bronzers with a ton of shimmer. These seemed perfect. I purchased both of the darkest shades, ‘Dark Tan’ and ‘Deep Tan’ to see which faired better with my skin tone. Both remind me of the MAC ‘Format’ blush that I love so much, minus the shimmer. These were on sale for $6.80.
Model in a Bottle
I purchased the Model in a Bottle Original Formula for my kit. I love their brow sealer, and I’ve heard nothing but great things about this makeup setting spray. After using it on clients, I know it works. It was a great purchase for $14.50
How did you like the bronzers? Have you been using the concealers a lot on clients?
My recent post Face of the Day: Summertime Green/Teal Smoky Eye
I use the bronzers often on myself only. For my kit I have NARS bronzers; casino and laguna. As for the concealers, I definitely use them on clients. To me, they're comparable to the MUFE HD concealers.
