TOP 5 MUST HAVE BLUSHES!!! 😄😘

Hi Frndz,

Welcome back to my blog! 😃

I love blushes coz they instantly freshen up our face! 😃
I have been working on this post for sooo long coz... honestly, I've got quite a lot of blushes & so it was really difficult for me to pick only 5 from those. But I really wanted to select only THE TOP 5 from them.. n let me tell u guys, that was quite a job (even though I loved it 😉) & now I'm finally ready with the post! 😃✌️

My selection criterias were :-

Quality v r getting for the Price;

Pigmentation;

Formula;

Blendability &

Staying Power.

So, in the increasing order of Price
( from low to high ), let's jump right into our " Top 5 Blushes!!! "

1) SUGAR Contour De Force Mini            Blush - Rs.299/-
                   

01, 02

Just luk at the packaging guys 😍!!! They come in 2 shades -
01: Peach Peak &
02: Pink Pinnacle.
I have both of them.. & Lemme tell u, I was really surprised by the Quality, Pigmentation & Staying power of these blushes. They are definitely a lottt better than the Maybelline Cheeky Glow blushes.

2) Wet n Wild Color Icon Blush -              Rs.299/-
           
              
                           01, 02

They come in 3 shades in India & I have 2 of them -
01:Pearlescent Pink &
02:Apri-cot in the Middle.
They are of really AMAZING quality guys... & for the price, they are BOMB.COM!!!

3) Faces Glam On Perfect Blush -            Rs.499/-  (but now they have                  increased the price to Rs.559/- for        some shades.)

             
                        05, 04, 07

There are 7 shades available in this range & I have 3 of them -
05:Dusky Rose,
04:Cocktail Peach &
07:Cinnamon.
They are of a creamy-powdery texture & r totally worth the money guys.. I just love them! Even though they have hiked the price, u can always get it at good discounts on online shopping sites..

4) Maybelline Master Flush Creator      Blush - Rs.850/-
                 

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this one to bits. They come in 4 varients. I have the shade '04 - Next to Nude', but I'm planning to buy more! This is an Ombre blush & is worth every penny guys. This instantly gives u the effect of a sculpted & lifted cheek.

5) theBalm Instain Long Wearing          Powder Staining Blush - Rs.1599/-
           
              

             
            Toile, Argyle, Swiss Dot

They come in 6 shades. Nw, lemme put one important fact abt these blushes straight away guys..
U'll get ADDICTED to this blush!!! Yup! Since this is on the expensive side (atleast for me), when I first decided to purchase one, I had promised myself that I'll buy ONLY ONE from this range 😇.
But now I have 3 of them 😬 😂 -
Toile,
Argyle &
Swiss Dot! 😬🤗
So... Now u guys can imagine how good they are! The staying power of these 'Instain' blushes are just 'INSANE' guys... I absolutely Love & ADORE them!

Eyetex Dazller Eyeshadow & Lipgloss Review & Swatches..

THIS IS NOT A SPONSORED POST!

Hi Friends,

I had gone to a shopping mall few weeks ago for purchasing some stationery items & of course, I had to take my  "usual stroll" thru the cosmetic counter 😬😁 & my eyes got stuck on this small, cute eyeshadow palette which was displayed in front of the Dazller counter. It comes with a free lipgloss too. And wen I saw the price, I was like, " I'm gonna get it for sure!"😬. 

But... was that a gud decision? 
Is it actually worth the 250rs? 
You'll find out in a minute!

Today let's talk about the main product - The Eyeshadow Palette. 

( If u guys want to know how the lip gloss is, pls let me know in the comment section & I will do a separate detailed review on it 😘)

So without further delay, lets jump into the review.

                       

PRICE - Rs.250/-

QUANTITY - 4 grams.

EXPIRY DATE - 2 yrs from the date of manufacturing.

INGREDIENTS - 
                
               

PACKAGING - 

                       

                          

                 

               

               

As you can see above, the packaging is overall very simple & small. It is made with cheap, light weight plastic. The lid is transparent n hence u can see all the eyeshadows inside. It does come with a small dual ended sponge tip applicator, but no mirror! One important thing to mention is that, THIS IS NOT TRAVEL FRIENDLY as the lid does open up in bags if u keep using it continuously. I had used this for about one n half weeks for reviewing purpose & the lid became loose & it got opened up inside my bag n of course, spilled 😣.

SHADE & FINISH -
                       
They have given individual names to each of these eyeshadows..

Shade A - White Sapphire
                      

This is a silver color with chunky glitter particles & heavy fall outs. This is my least favourite shade in this palette 😔! 

Shade B - Yellow Jade
                 

This is a beautiful warm yellow-golden subtle shade with a satiny finish. I loveee this shade .

Shade C - Rhodolite Garnet

                    .   

A gorgeous warm deep rosy shade which is of satin finish!

Shade D - Red Spine
             
                           

I don't like the name 🙄! But I loveee the shade 😍. This is a warm rustic orange shade which is again, satiny! 

TEXTURE & FORMULA -

I hate the formula of the white sapphire all together 😒! It has very chunky glitter particles. N be careful if u ever plan of using it, coz it has crazyyy fall out & ur whole face will be sparking with glitter after application 🙄.
The formula of other shades are neither great nor bad. They r just ok.

PIGMENTATION & STAYING POWER - 

Guys... Don't even think about using this palette without a primer! Without a primer it takes 6-8 swipes for the colour to show up on the lids at least in a subtle way 😫! N after around 2 hours of application, it disappeared 😂. 
I was like.. WTF?😮

But with a primer ( I used my favourite eye primer ever, the Milani one ♥️!) it tuk only 2-3 swipes for the shades to show up on my lids & it stayed easily for 7-8 hours, after which I removed it with a makeup remover. 

# Except the 'white sapphire', all the others are very subtle, satiny shades.

PROS :-

1) Cheap.

2) Very pretty shades.

CONS :-

1) No mirror.

2) Lid of the palette becomes loose with continuous usage, hence not travel friendly.

3) Pathetic Pigmentation & Staying power.

4) A good Primer is a MUST HAVE if you want to use this palette.

5) Shade 'White Sapphire is a disaster with chunky glitters & heavy fall outs! 😖

6) No matte shade.

So... Now it's time for the final verdict! 

Is this palette Pretty Things World approved??? 🤔

                               mmm... NO.. 😐👎 &
                                now u guys know y..

I wud give this a 2/5 rating & honestly, I wud not advice this to anyone. U cud save this money & buy something better!


So that ws my honest review abt this product & hope u guys found this review useful.

Sugar Contour De Force Blushes Review & Swatches.

THIS IS NOT A SPONSORED POST!

Hi Frnds,

First of all, A Very Happy New Year to u & ur family!!! 😀🎈🎉

May this year bring loads & loads of happiness, love & of course, make up to u.. 😂😘💅💄

Nw coming to the review.. I had purchased these blushes last week. But I always try out new products for at least a week b4 I give my full review here. And yes, I've tried these babies out for a week n now I'm ready to give my opinion! 😃.. I really wanted to post this review on January 1st 2018 & yeah.. 😀🎉🎈 here I'm.. with the detailed review of Sugar's new two blushes - 01 Peach Peak & 02 Pink Pinnacle. So without further delay, let's jump right into the review! 😃


                             

Price - Rs.299/-

Quantity - 4 grams.

Ingredients -
                             

Expiry Date - 3yrs from the date of manufacturing.

Product Description On The Website -

Benefits: 

The light-as-air SUGAR Contour De Force Mini Blush blends like a dream into the apples of your cheeks for a seamless wash of vivid, long-lasting colour. This product is dermatologically tested & approved and 100% safe for your skin. 

Additional Details: 

The SUGAR Contour De Force Mini Blush comes in two pretty shades viz., Peach Pink and Pink Pinnacle. This product is free from parabens, D5, oil, mineral oil and nano-ingredients.

Packaging - 
            
                             

It comes in this black square carton with a stencil like "S" in the middle.You have to slide out the actual blush box inside it. 
                   

                         

At the back of the outer carton, all the ingredients, price, expiry date etc: are mentioned.

                             

                         

Now.. let's all take a moment to adore & appreciate the beauty of this cute, purple prismatic patterned packaging guys..👏😍 I loveee Sugar's packaging.. N lemme tell u, its not only beautiful, but also quite sturdy. It is made of thick cardboard (which is light weight) & has magnetic closure. The magnet is pretty strong guys.. I've carried it in my bag many times & it didn't open by itself even once. In that way, it is very travel friendly. But.. the sad part is that, it doesn't come with a mirror! 😔.

                               

If it had a mirror, I would have given 10/10 for packaging.

Shades - 
                            
                        Left- Peach Peak, Right- Pink Pinnacle

01 - Peach Peak: It is described by 'SUGAR' as a 'Soft Peach Pink' & I couldn't agree more. It is a gorgeous & natural looking peachy pink with more peach in it. This shade will suit fair to medium skin tones beautifully. But I don't think this will show up on tanned/dusky skin tones. 

02 - Pink Pinnacle: This shade is described by 'SUGAR' as a 'Deep Rose' shade & yes.. it is indeed a deep rose shade. This will actually show up on all skin tones. Especially, if u have tanned/dusky skin, I wud highly suggest u to get this one rather than the peach peak.This shade will luk gorgeous on light skin too; but make sure u apply this with a very, very light hand.

Finish - 100% Matte!

Texture & Formula - This is very soft, smooth, light weight n finely milled. The formula is non drying & didn't give me any break outs.

Blending - Both shades are smooth & easy to blend & blends like butter on the skin!

Pigmentation -
   
                            
                            Left- Peach Peak, Right- Pink Pinnacle

The 02 Pink Pinnacle is obviously more pigmented coz it's darker.. But still, I want to admit the fact that '01- Peach Peak' is very pigmented for a blush of lighter shade. I'm of light medium skin & usually light colored blushes (especially the ones below 500rs) need at least 4-5 swipes on my skin to show up! But I just need 2-3 swipes of Peach Peak & just 1 Swipe of Pink Pinnacle to show up on my skin, which is pretty A-M-A-Z-I-N-G for a 299rs blush! To sum up, both shades are very, very pigmented for their respective color range.

Staying power - This stays on my normal-dry skin for about 7 to 8 hours easily which is extremely rare for a 299rs blush.. 😃👍🏻

Pros:-

1) Super cute, sturdy & light weight packaging.

2) Very affordable.

3) Soft & smooth texture.

4) Blends like butter.

5) Highly pigmented.

6) Superb staying power.

7) Doesnt dry out the skin.

8) Didn't break me out.

9) Shade '02 Pink Pinnacle' will suit ALL skin colors.

Cons:-

1) No mirror.

2) Shade '01 Peach Peak' will suit only fair to medium skin tones.


So, time for the final verdict...

                         Is this Pretty Things World approved??? 😜
   
                                    Yes without doubt!!! 😀🎊

I wud give this a 4.8/5 rating & wud definitely recommend this to every1. I totally love these blushes guys.. I'm of light medium skin color & I use Peach Peak wen I want that natural, subtle flush of color on my cheeks & Pink Pinnacle wen I go out for shopping n other functions. I really cant pick one shade over the other. In fact, if u r some1 who uses blush, this is a must have!😃
