Nature’s Brilliance By Sue Mineral Lipsticks and Blush Review

Uncategorized, , , , , , ,
I had described more about Nature’s Brilliance and Sue in my previous post here where I reviewed the mineral eye shadows.

Today I am reviewing the Mineral Color Set consisting of mineral blush/eye color and Cranberry Butter lipstick.

The Cranberry Butter Lipstick is in the shade ‘Bordeaux’ which is champagne brown pink and ‘Peach Sunset’ which is a peachy orange..but comes out very sheer on the lips like a lip balm.

Ingredients: Pure Cranberry Butter (Pure Cranberry Fruit, Shea Butter, Jojoba), Certified Organic Jojoba Oil, Lecithin (Vegetbale Source), Castor Seed Oil, Cetyl Stearyl Alcohol (Vegetable Source), Olive Fruit Oil, Beeswax, Soybean Lipids, Carnauba Wax, Candelillia Wax, Natural Vitamin E, Grapefruit Seed Extract, Mica, Iron Oxide.

All lip products now also contain tangerine oil and Vitamin C.

MRP: 10$

Pros:

1. Its made up of all natural ingredients.
2. Very very creamy and smooth to glide on.
3. Keeps lips very moisturized.
4. The color stays on for 2-3 hours.
5. Wide variety of colors.

Cons:

1. It tends to melt.
2. Colors like Peach Sunset come out very sheer and hardly show up.
3. A white layer forms on the lipstick and there are some minute grainy things which may be the natural ingredients that come up in between.
4. Its only available in US and Canada right now.

The Blush is in the shade 001MCS which I did not find the shade of on the site. Its a soft shimmery pink which looks a little brown in the jar.

MRP: 7$

Ingredients: Serecite, Mica, Iron Oxide, Titanium Dioxide.

Goes on very silky and stays on all day.

T- Unblended B- Blended

Pros:

1. The blush is as it claims…goes on silky..
2. Stays for a decent amount of time.
3. These colors can be used both as a blush or eye color.
4. Again its mineral color and suitable for sensitive skin too.
5. The colors are very pretty in this range from pinks,peaches,beige,rose,orange,corals.

Cons:

1. Most of the colors are shimmery..so not for day time use.
2. And as it does not ship to India 🙁

Rating:

Quality: 4/5
Value for money: 4/5
Availability: 2/5

Overall Rating: 3.75/5

Would I buy it again: If in case I get to lay hands on them through relatives in US…I would surely like to try other colors.

If you stay in US or Canada you should surely try this brand. You can get 10% discount on all the products by using the coupon code ‘BHUMIKA10’. Check out the site here

P.S: Product sent by brand for review but it has not affected my opinion.

The colors I have are Rose Garden, Primrose, Mocha,Peach Sunset,Golden Rose and Emeralds

Emeralds as the name suggests is a shimmery emerald neon green.
Primrose is a neon pink.
Mocha is a beautiful taupe coffee brown.
Peach sunset is a peachy golden orange.
Rose garden is a mix of champagne pink and copper brown with golden shimmer..difficult to describe this color but its a very pretty color.
Golden Rose is a bronze brown with pink base and golden shimmer.

T-B: Same order as described above

I liked all the colors but I loved Mocha,rose garden and golden rose the most…they are the prettiest colors.
