Lancome Translucence Powder




"What it is: 
A  silky powder with a touch of sheer coverage to set makeup for lasting wear. 

What it does: 
Translucent Loose Setting Powder locks in makeup for long-lasting wear, without adding weight or texture. This product creates a modern, matte finish with a touch of sheer coverage, while it absorbs oil and reduces shine all day. The pros know why it's their favorite: the powder is a little denser than an average powder, providing super smooth, even application and blending. This no-flashback formula means you'll look great in photos, and it creates a soft-focus effect to subtly blur the look of fine lines and imperfections. It will not settle into fine lines or pores and never looks cakey. These truly translucent shades work on all skin tones—from the fairest to the deepest. The just-released, Translucent Medium shade was designed to be completely translucent on light to the medium skin tones, ensuring that every skin tone gets a perfectly flawless, translucent finish. 
What else you need to know: 
I use this Setting Powder to set foundation and prolong its wear, so I apply it after foundation and concealer, and before applying powder-based color. An added benefit: it helps powder blush or bronzer go on more evenly. 

This professional-quality powder is noncomedogenic, non-caking, and dermatologist tested. 

On to my thoughts:
As I mentioned above, I already love this loose setting powder. I use it everyday to set my undereyes. You can definitely use it on your whole face to set the rest of you makeup and it looks great. I just personally prefer mattifying pressed powders to set the rest of my face.

Sincerely Cosmetics


I had the pleasure of trying 2 Sincerely Lipsticks from the Sincerely Cosmetics Line  ‘Creativity’ is a beautiful unicorn pink, perfect for fun looks and festival outfits! ‘Awesome’ is a rich red tone which spreads beautifully on the lips with a hint of glitter.

Each pale, brown skin, and dark skinned individual looked amazing with these colors. They would look nice as a casual lip or even a night-out type of look. Both are perfect for a daring, bold, yet chic outfit.

Formula:
These lipsticks have a classic creamy finish and glides on the lips smoothly. They are also pigmented, you can get away with one swipe on the lips. The longevity is also very amazing for a lipstick. It lasted a few hours for me. So I recommend.

How to Use Color Correctors Correctly



I don’t know about you, but achieving a smooth canvas with my skin is number one on my list when it comes to makeup. Before I even begin to think about adding any sort of beat, color or dramatic effects, I want to look even-toned. You’ve probably noticed that concealers no longer come in only skin tone shades. Instead, there are many different colors (green, purple, pink, yellow, etc.). Each shade has a specific issue they are best suited to conceal. And if you have several spots on your face that you struggle with, then understanding color correcting concealers can be a total game changer.

Start by selecting your concern. You can choose from:
  • Dark Circles
  • Redness
  • Dark Spots
  • Dullness

Green Concealers: The color green neutralizes the color red, which is why green concealers are wonderful for getting rid of any redness on your face. Use a green based spot concealer to remove redness from an annoying zit, or any acne scars. If you have widespread redness, (rosacea, windburn or sunburn), then a color correcting green primer will be best to significantly reduce redness and give an even toned base for flawless foundation application.

Purple, lavender, or lilac concealers are best suited for eliminating any unwanted yellow undertones on your skin. People with a pasty, dull, yellow complexion will love how a purple concealer or primer adds a beautiful glow to their face. As you probably guessed, purple is directly across from yellow on the color wheel. To remove yellow tones from your entire face, consider a color correcting purple primer. If you’re looking to conceal yellow spots, a spot concealer is best.

Yellow concealers are perfect for hiding purple or blue bruises, veins, and under eye circles, so it’s no surprise yellow is right across from purple on the color wheel. Yellow concealers are typically the most general, and are great for evening out skin tone to give a bright base for your foundation. Depending on your skin tone, they can also be a perfect as an eye shadow base if you don’t have a eye primer handy.

Salmon/Peach Concealers: These are ideal for brightening around the eye area and masking signs of fatigue. This particular concealer color is a mixture of red, orange, and yellow hues, which are across from the blue, purple, and green hues on the color wheel. That’s why this color is best to combat dark under eye circles. Since it’s a great brightening agent, these concealers also work well to cover raccoon eyes and to give sallow olive tones skin a much needed radiance.



Make sure you apply on your problem spot only and not all over your face. Hope this helped.

Estee Lauder Revitalizing Supreme




Estee Lauder Revitalizing Supreme is a multi-action anti-aging cream that reduces the appearance of different skin aging signs including fine lines, wrinkles, loss of firmness, dryness and dullness. Estee Lauder Revitalizing Supreme claims to work by igniting the innate ability of the skin to heal and regenerate itself. The formula also uses other active ingredients for stimulating different anti-aging pathways of the skin cells. It boosts collagen production to help restore the youthfulness of the skin making it more elastic and smooth. It also uses powerful moisturizing and soothing ingredients to reduce inflammation and prevent dryness and, therefore, prevent premature skin aging.

I recently started using it, and the appearance of my skin was instantly smoother, completely moisturized and radiant after one use.After extensively examining Estee Lauder Revitalizing Supreme, it is a good anti-aging cream. The product is designed to target all the skin aging signs although it is mostly effective for fine lines and wrinkles. Like always I encourage you to compare all beauty products to find what you are looking for.
