Bobbi Brown - New Products 2014

Hi everyone! How are you? I hope you are having a fantastic week so far! Today I have some cosmetics by Bobbi Brown to show you. I have 3 of the new long wear gel sparkle gel liners, as well as 2 brow products, a limited edition Creamy Matte Lip Colour from the upcoming Smokey Nudes collection and 1 nail polish. Let's jump right in! Bobbi Brown is available online at www.bobbibrown.com.au and at Myer and David Jones nationally.

Long-Wear Gel Sparkle Shadow + Liner (RRP $42.00, on counters October 5th) in the shades; 1 Night Sky (a gorgeous deep blue-black with blue and purple sparkles in it), 2 Thunderstorm (a dark gunmetal with silver sparkles) and 4 Sunlit Bronze (a beautiful deep copper/bronze with copper and red sparkles). They are all magnificent products to see in person, with their shimmering sparkle that catches the light beautifully. When applied, they are quite sheer (which is perfect for the 'shadow' part of the product, but in terms of the 'liner' part of the product, it was difficult to build opacity for a strong lined eye look. The products are super creamy and glide on very well. I am yet to test it's long-wear capabilities. 

Night Sky

Thunderstorm

Sunlit Bronze

Creamy Matte Lip Colour in the shade 21 Warm Nude, a nude peach creme (RRP $44.00, available here). This shade suits my olive complexion perfectly. It is just on the dark nude side but compliments my eyes and brown hair really nicely. It is creamy, as well as being a matte and lasts for about 4-5 hours before I notice it needs to be reapplied. It's so soft when it's on your lips! I'm in love!

Natural Brow Shaper & Hair Touch Up in the shades Clear and 6 Rich Brown (RRP $44.00, available here). This product is very straight forward and tames the brows in place effectively. The rich brown colour is slightly too light for my eyebrows and make them look a bit ashy but on the right colour, it would definitely make them appear more precise.

Nail Polish in the shade Roza, is described on the website as a pink grey, but is more of a gorgeous sheer beige nail polish which applies perfectly in 2 coats. (RRP $23.00, available here)

What's your favourite Bobbi Brown products? I'm hooked on their creamy matte lipsticks and nail polishes!! Thanks for reading. xx

 

ELES Cosmetics - Micro Mocha Lipstick

Hey everyone! Happy New Year to you all! I hope you had a great 2013 and you are ready to take on the new year! Today I am showing you a lipstick by ELES Cosmetics called Micro Mocha* from their core lipstick range (RRP $39.50). I am seriously loving ELES cosmetics - their mascara is my favourite one EVER and their lipsticks are SO smooth and creamy and highly pigmented. The micro mocha colour is the perfect red toned brown that complements olive/tan skin tones very well (like myself!). I recommend you try their lipsticks out and see what I'm talking about - they are brilliant! I can't recommend it enough to people! The picture shows 1 coat of the lipstick. It has really great coverage and opacity. Head over to the ELES website at www.elescosmetics.com.au to see all of their wonderful products!

OPI - Glints Of Glinda

Hihihihi!! Today I have a colour I've been loving from the new OPI - Oz: The Great and Powerful collection! This one is called *Glints of Glinda and is a very sheer warm peachy-nude colour. I used 3 thin coats in the photos and you can still see VNL. I topped it off with 1 coat of Wicked Fast. Nonetheless, it made my nails look feminine, clean and well groomed. Also I have some exciting news! I have started studying to become a nail technician! YES! I can share my journey with you and hopefully have some great tips and tricks available to help you get the best out of nails/nail care/nail polish. Once I get internet up at my new place I will be right back into a regular blogging routine! Thanks for being so patient with me, it pays off as I have a giveaway coming soon! :)

Thanks for reading and have a great day!

Ciate - Jewel + OPI - Don't Pretzel My Buttons

Hi guys!! Today I have for you a really pretty combo of nude and glitter! Ciate - Jewel is an amazing glitter! It is filled with silve holographic bar glitters suspended in a really soft blue jelly. It is amazing and so unique to normal glitters! I also used OPI - Don't Pretzel My Button, from the latest Germany collection, and it is a really flattering nude colour. I painted my ring finger and my thumb with Ciate - Jewel and all the other nails with DPMB. I used 3 coats of Jewel and 1 coat of DPMB all followed with 1 thick coat of Cult Nails - Wicked Fast.

Look at that amazingggggg holographic glitter! Yum! I hope you like this! Do you own this Ciate and love it as much as I do? Thanks for reading!!
