Indian Summer Makeup Tutorial | Gold Eyes and Blue Liner

Hi guys,

I created this summer makeup tutorial apt for casual outings or even summer weddings, especially if you have blue and gold in your outfit.

I used cushion foundation and very little highlighter as you don’t want a heavy base for summers and too much shimmer on the face, coz you sweat anyway.

Products used:

  • PAC Cosmetics Pore Primer
  • MAC Conceal & Correct Palette Medium Deep
  • The Body Shop Fresh Nude Cushion Foundation Malawi Beach
  • Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer Light
  • Wet N Wild Mega Glo Contouring Powder- Yellow
  • NYX Ombre Blush Feel The Heat
  • Makeup Geek Contouring Powder Complicated
  • NYX Refine & Define Powder Foundation
  • Becca Champagne Pop
  • NYX Dream Catcher Palette in Golden Horizons
  • NYX Gel Liner & Smudger in Cobalt Blue
  • MAC Modern Twist Kajal Cat’s Meow
  • Colourpop Honeydude Eyeliner
  • PAC Retro Matte Gloss 36 and 36
  • NYX Dewy Finish Setting Spray
  • YBP Makeup Perfector

The gold gives a nice warmth to the summer look and the pop of blue liner adds come colour. For the lips, I didn’t want something too bright or light, so mixed the two pinks to get the perfect rosy pink.

I hope you liked the look, do let me know your thoughts in the comments below 🙂

My Experience with b2nshop.com (BlancIINoir)

We’ve created a unique store that offers our customers the ability to find what they want easily and quickly. we offer our customers a no-risk opportunity to try us out.

Best Site to Shop NYX, Sigma brushes and make up, Facefront Cosmetics, etc

I have bought NYX stuff from Porkdaisy before..and loved the site..but with time they added handling fee, tax and increased the shipping cost too..which made the product cost come to more than what we get here 🙁 Then there is Cherry Culture which has always got mixed reviews..but I have heard so many complaints that the parcels were lost..and they never got the parcel nor the money refunded..And there also is Beauty Joint which did the same..plus even they add handling fee separately.

Finally after discovering BlancIINoir..I am so glad..that here the prices are fine, there is no additional handling fee or tax and the shipping cost is reasonable too..plus it reaches in 2 weeks.

The shipping varies on the no. of products..increasing marginally..1 product- 5.28$, 2 products- 6.22$ but one 9$ Sigma brush has more than 10$ shipping..similar to the Sigma website..I thought it would be cheaper though..and this is the basic shipping option..without tracking..though I surely recommend this site for buying NYX stuff..coz with the discounts and the combined shipping, it still works out cheaper.

They also have additional 10% discount on buying above 50$ and free shipping above 100$ in the US..if you can team up with 2-3 of your friends..you can get NYX stuff at a much cheaper price as there are additional discounts which you can avail !

The package is a cardboard box with lots of white thermocol sponges inside..but the products inside are separate..I think these should have been more securely bubble wrapped..though they were not damaged..but just in case..

They have everything in stock from NYX including the glitter pigments, bronzers, brushes, make up kits to the very latest and newest additions..!

I got my parcel in 14 days time..and here is what I ordered..

Overall I totally recommend this site for buying NYX stuff..I am sure you will get confused as to what to get and what to leave..if you can tie up with your friends and get additional discounts ordering above 50$..that would be a bonanza !

P.S: I got a voucher to shop for but that has not affected my opinion of the site.

NYX Round Lipstick in Tea Rose Review,Swatches and Reccos

Uncategorized, , , , , , , , ,
What the Company claims : NYX’s Round Lipstick is a velvet-textured lipstick formulated with mineral oils to provide moisturizing benefits and rich colors. NYX’s top selling lipstick, the Round Lipstick offers long-lasting, non-smudging color.

Size: Net wt. 4g/ 0.14oz.

Ingredients:
Ceresin Wax, Polyethlene Wax, Microcrystalline Wax, Beeswax, Lanoline Oil, Isopropyl Myristate, Mineral Oils, Octyl Palmitate, BHA, Propyl Paraben, Mica, Titanium Dioxide, D&C Red No.A1 Lake, Pearl Powder, Iron Oxide.

MRP: 4$ or Rs.400/-

These are now known as Lip Smacking Fun Colors..they come in 144 shades plus there are around 20 shades newly added !!

 

Tea Rose is one of the most famous colors in NYX..when I wanted to purchase it last time on Pork Daisy this shade was out of stock..so you can guess how much in demand this shade is..

Tea Rose is a light tea rose pink shade…not something which everyone can carry and every time..this shade has a tendency to wash out too paler and too dusky skin tones..but it will suit medium to fair complexions well..with the right overall makeup.

These are super duper creamy and last well compared to the creaminess..you can easily skip a lip balm with them..

These round lipsticks are now named Fun Smacking Lip Colors..

Pros:

1. Super creamy and moisturising.
2. Pigmented enough..just a swipe is enough when I do not want much color.
3. These are pretty economical at the price,quality and with the shades available.
4. Love the choice of shades I get with it..
5. Colors at the end to differentiate the shades if you have a few of these lipsticks.
6. Stays for 2-3 hours.

Cons:

1. Packaging is plastic..if these fall I think they would break easily.
2. These would melt in summers or in hot climate.
3. Availability in India is a issue.

Overall I super like it…and the shades I think which would be good on Indian skin tones are Heredes, Pumpkin Pie,Heather, Lala, Indian Pink, Haute Mellon, Peach bellini,Thalia, Blush,Frappucino,Femme,Fig,Margarita,Twist..OMG..there are soo many pretty shades to choose from !

Rating:

Quality: 4/5
Value for money: 4/5
Availability: 3/5

Overall Rating: 3.75/5

Would I buy it again: Does this even need an answer…I am surely eyeing a few shades 😉
