(Review) : E.L.F. Studio Eyebrow Kit #Medium

Hello everyone..

Eyebrow is one of my most important thing. I don't lucky to have perfect eyebrow like some people. So everyday I have to fill my eyebrow to look better even when I don't put any makeup. Usually when I'm in a hurry I just using eyebrow pencil because its easier and faster. But today I will review about eyebrow kit from E.L.F. I use this product when I have more time. I'm not perfect when draw my eyebrow, I'm still learning to do it perfectly. This eyebrow kit comes in 4 different color which is : Ash, Light, Medium and Dark. I have dark eyebrow and dark hair but I choose the medium shade to make my eyebrow look lighter than the real color.



PRODUCT DETAILS :

Name : E.L.F. Studio Eyebrow Kit
Shade : Medium
Price : IDR 85.000,-
Net Weight : 0.13oz/3.7g (Brow Gel 0.05oz/1.4g | Brow Powder 0.08oz/2.3g)

DESCRIPTIONS :

* Creates brow that fuller, thicker, and more defined
* Shapes and sets your eyebrows
* Gives lasting color definition for a beautiful natural look




PACKAGING :
The package is sturdy and sleek. It is made from plastic with black color. It comes with small mirror and dual brush applicator (angled brush and blending brush). It have small size so it is such a handy product to bring in my makeup bag. The mirror and brush is very handy when you have to reapply the product.



DIRECTIONS :
* Use the angled brush to apply the pigmented brow gel to define and shape the brows. 
* Set the color in place with the brow powder using the blending brush for a natural finished look.

SHADES :
As you can see it comes with two different shades. The darker color are the pigmented wax / gel and the lighter color are the complementing setting powder. The pigmented wax defines and shapes brows and the complementing setting powder keeps them looking arched and perfected. The double sided taklon brush has one side to help arch your brows while the other side aids in filling them in. This duo provides lasting color definition for a naturally beautiful look.



SWATCHES :
These are the swatches, the brow gel is pretty smooth as it goes on my eyebrows and the brow powder is pretty chalky. I didn't notice any major fall-out, but this is not going to be like  high end eyebrow product. However, when used after the brow gel I don't have any issues.



OVERALL :

I love the product so I recommend this product to everyone. It perfect for everyday natural finish eyebrow look. The brow gel can be a good framing color and the brow powder is a great filling color. It last around 8 hours (for me), I apply on the morning before going to work and still last after work. The price is affordable too. But it takes longer to apply than eyebrow pencil especially if you're not familiar using the brow wax and powder.


EYEBROW GEL INGREDIENTS :
Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite, Copernicia Cerifera (Carnauba) Wax, Paraffinum Liquidum (Mineral Oil), Polyisobutene, Ceresin, Bis-Diglyceryl Polyacyladipate-2, Microcrystalline Wax (Cera Microcrisatallina)

(Review) : Wardah Everyday Luminous Liquid Foundation #02 Light Beige


Hello Everyone..


So for everyday makeup I rarely using foundation. I prefer use BB Cream or CC Cream for daily appearance. I just using foundation for special occasion like a party. But this foundation from Wardah which is Wardah Everyday Luminous Liquid Foundation makes me interested because it's claim have light formula and can use everyday. Wardah is local product from Indonesia.

I choose the Light Beige shades because I think it suites well with my skin tone. As you can see on my face, I have many red patches (this photo was taken when my skin condition is quite bad). With one layer of the foundation it can cover some of the red patches. But it can't cover all of my skin problem like acne and acne scar. So the concealer is needed. My skin looks a little smooth and bright. This foundation don't gives any breakout to my skin after I using it so I love it. The staying power for me just around 4 hours.

Hi Beauty..

How are everyone in this new year? I hope this year will be better than last year and all of my wish will come true. I'm a lippie person, so I have more lip product than other make up. So today I will review about lipstick from Maybelline which is Maybelline Color Show Lipstick #205 Red Siren. Maybelline Color Show Lipstick is a fashionable intense lipstick, which comes in chic to vivid shades. Maybelline Color Show Lipstick is highly pigmented giving bold lips. This is my first red lipstick, I'm usually just buy pink or peach lipstick. I love natural make up, but this time I want to try something more bold make up with red lipstick.

The new lipstick have plastick wrap with Maybelline Color Show text on it, if we open it the lipstick will be naked.
