Mac Amplified Lipstick in Full Fuchsia Review and Swatches

2016-01-30T13:31:00.000+02:00

(0.10oz./2.8g - 15USD) A vivid pearly fuchsia pink. It stains your lips a lot and that stain is really hard to remove. The color pay-off is strong but not thoroughly opaque.

Other bright fuchsia lipstick comparisons and swatches;

Rimmel London Lasting Finish by Kate Moss in 20 is bluer and has a creamy finish.
Mac Cremesheen Lipstick in Lickable is little bit sheerer compared to Full Fuschia and bluer, they both have a pearlescent effect.
Mac Amplified Lipstick in Full Fuchsia is more reddish than the previous two.
Mac Retro Matte Lipstick in Relentlessly Red is slightly more reddish than Full Fuschia and matte.
Revlon Colorburst Lacquer Balm in 120 is glossier.

---
Rimmel London Lasting Finish by Kate Moss ruj kremsi görünüşte ve daha mavimsi bir pembe.
Mac Cremesheen Lickable ruj ise hafif sedefli soğuk tonda bir fuşya.
Mac Amplified Full Fuchsia ruj daha çok kırmızıya bakan tonda bir fuşya, ve çok canlı çarpıcı bir renk.
Mac Retro Matte Relentlessly Red ruj mat bir yapıya sahip, tam bir karpuz rengi diyebilirim.
Revlon Colorburst Lacquer Balm in 120 ise biraz şeffaf ama yine de çok canlı bir çilek rengine sahip.

Too Faced Boudoir Eyes Soft & Sexy Eye Shadow Collection Review and Swatches

2016-01-29T13:24:00.000+02:00

(11,4g/0,39oz. - 36USD) Too Faced Boudoir Eyes Eye Shadow Palette is meant for sexy bedroom eyes look, glowing and smokey.
In the buff: You may remember this shade from the Naked Eye palette, just the same, a matte ivory.
Fuzzy handcuffs: A matte peachy beige.
Voulez-vous: A smokey purple with a satin finish.
Satin sheets: Again from the Too Faced Naked Eye palette, shimmering peachy gold.
Sugar walls: A pale taupe with silver sparkles, as usual sparkles doesn't show up on the eyes.
Garter belt: Matte grey, you know sometimes grey shades appear blue-ish on the eyes, this one doesn't, this could make your eyes smokey and natural at the same time.
Birthday suit: This shade is a repeat of Too Faced Naked Eye palette, but this one is slightly paler which makes it a perfect base color as you can see from the dent I made.
Lap dance: Once again from the Too Faced Naked Eye palette, but this is less greyish and more taupe.
French tickler: A not so intense black with sparkles and lots of fall out.

You can view the photos and the review of the Naked Eye Palette here.

Sanırım Too Faced artık Türkiye'de satılmıyor, en son Sephora mağazalarından kaldırılıyordu. Umarım en kısa zamanda tekrar ülkemize gelir. Too Faced'in diğer far paletlerine sahipseniz bu palete pek ihtiyacınız yok gibi ama yine de bakması bile zevkli.

Gosh Velvet Touch Lipstick Collection Swatches and Review

2015-12-11T15:00:00.001+02:00

(0,1oz./4g) Gosh cosmetics is my top favorite drug store brand. Their lipsticks and mascaras are amazing. Today I'm going to review all the lipstick shades that I have from them. I have 8 and the other colors from the collection didn't look wearable to me, they are either too light or too metallic. They also have a couple of red shades which some people might be looking for. They all have a vanilla scent just like Mac lipsticks. Their formula and lasting power is very similar to MAC Amplified lipsticks.
To check the matte collection, you can visit Just Nice Things' blog.

008 Matt Plum is from the newest matte collection, it's a fuchsia purple / berry shade. The formula on this one is very stiff, it feels like applying a lip pencil on your lips, it's that dry and stiff. It's not highly pigmented but it has a buildable coverage, you have to apply many layers to achieve this opaque finish. But the reason why I love this lipstick is, the lasting power. Once you apply, it will stay put on your lips for hours.

66 Bourgogne is a bright mauve pink with a frosty finish. They didn't have a tester on the store so I got this without trying and the swatch under the lipstick deceived me. I just hate metallic and frosty lipsticks, they look unflattering to me. Anyhow, if you happen to like this color I'm sure that you'll love the formula because it's buttery soft and highly pigmented.

122 Nougat is a peachy brown with a creamy finish. Again, the formula is great, buttery soft with an opaque coverage.

160 Delicious is a muted red and has pink undertones in it, it's eye catching but still a wearable every day color. It doesn't look too much. This is my second tube and favorite shade from this collection. Once again the formula is great, with one or two swipe you'll get an opaque finish and the lipstick is smooth and long lasting.

160 Sweetheart is a greyish brown, I might say a cool undertoned brown. The lasting power and opaqueness is great on this one too.

159 Boheme is a bold purple with pink undertones. The formula is the same with other shades, highly pigmented and easy to glide on.

170 Night Kiss is a red toned plum, I love the color but this one dissappointed me with it's formula. It's more sheer than the other ones. And applies patchy, you have to apply so many layers to get an even color. It's also glossier and that takes away from the lasting power which is not convenient at all for such a dark shade.

171 Twilight is a vampy blackened purple. It's long lasting and richly pigmented.

---
Gosh mat ve parlak rujlar harika bir formüle sahip, neredeyse bütün rujlar yoğun renk verme özelliğine sahip ve sürülmesi çok kolay, çok yumuşaklar. Kalıcılık ve renk yoğunluğu açısından MAC Amplified rujlara çok benziyor. Yukarıda fotoğrafta görebileceğiniz gibi 008 Mat Plum buradaki tek mat ruj , yeni çıkan mat koleksiyonundan. Renk yoğunluğu açısından diğerleri kadar güçlü olmasa da bol miktarda uygulandığında o yoğunluğa gelebiliyor ve mat olduğu için diğerlerinden çok daha kalıcı.

Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick in 315 Rich Plum Review and Swatches

2015-12-10T13:09:00.000+02:00

(0,15oz./4,25g - 7,49USD) Yet another Color Sensational lipstick, I'm obsessed with this range. If you want to see my other reviews on different Color Sensational shades please click here. You can find this shade at Amazon UK.
315 Rich Plum has a glossy and opaque finish like almost all the Color Sensational lipsticks. It's a reddish plum color but definitely more red than plum. You can say a plum hued red.

---
Maybelline Color Sensational 315 Rich Plum ruj yine kötü kokusuna rağmen çok beğendiğim bir ruj, sıcak mürdüm tonunda bir renge sahip. Türkiye'de Miss Pera'da bulabilirsiniz.

Rimmel London Moisture Renew Lipsticks in 130 Oxford St. Fuchsia & 330 Sloane's Plum Review and Swatches

2015-12-09T15:58:00.000+02:00

(0,14oz./4g - 6,99USD) Rimmel London re-released their Moisture Renew lipsticks with a new packaging and a new formula.
130 Oxford St. Fuchsia is a bubble gum pink, has a creamy finish. The formula is thicker but smooth enough to glide on.
330 Sloane's Plum is deep berry color which leans on the purple side. The older version is frosty and has a metallic greenish sheen. As you can see above I have the same lipstick, 330 Slone's Plum in both old and new packaging. You can see the color is slightly different too, new version is darker and glossier. I've only tried this lipstick in new formula, so far I am liking the previous one better. (only the formula, not the color) Because the new formula is lighter and more buttery which sounds good but it makes the lasting power so weak.

You can see my swatches and review of the two nude Moisture Renew lipsticks in 700 Nude Delight & 720 Nothing Hill Nude.
This collection has 20 lovely shades which you can find at ulta.com or at superdrug.com

---
Watson's a gittiğimde göz atmadan geçemediğim bir marka Rimmel London. Yanlışlıkla 2 tane aynı rujdan almışım ama bu sayede eski ve yeni formülü değerlendirme şansım oldu.
Önce 130 Oxford St. Fuchsia ile başlayalım, bir kaç yıl önce herhalde çocuksu bir ruh halimde almışım bu rengi, tam bir şeker pembesi. Bu rengin yapısını diğer ikisine göre çok daha güzel buldum. Daha yoğun renk veriyor ve dudakta daha kalıcı.
330 Sloane's Plum eski versiyonu formül olarak çok daha iyi ama yeni versiyonu renk olarak daha güzel. Yeni versiyon çok yumuşak, ıslak gibi kayıyor dudaklarınızda ama bence böyle koyu bir renkte olmazsa olmaz bir özellik rujun ne kadar kalıcı olduğu. Yani bu ruj formülüyle yemek yemek çok zor ama bir MAC rujla çok daha rahat yemek yiyebilirsiniz.
Diğer iki nude tonlarda 700 Nude Delight ve 720 Nothing Hill Nude Moisture Renew ruj yorumlarımı ve fotoğraflarımı görebilirsiniz.

MAC Amplified Lipstick in Fast Play & Matte Lipstick in Mehr Review and Swatches

2015-12-08T13:32:00.002+02:00

(0,10oz./2,8g - 17USD) I have a new MAC haul with 6 gorgeous lipsticks,today I'm going to review 2 of those.
Fast Play has an Amplified finish, so as you can see from the pictures above it has a semi glossy finish and is intensely pigmented. The shade is retro type brown but with a pink hue. I'm so in to pinkish browns lately, could be considered as nude for some skin tones, though.
Mehr is a Matte, looks velvety on the lips. This is such a Kylie Jenner nude brown. Mehr is very similar to fast play but a tad bit deeper and of course, matte.

---
Mac Fast Play ve Mehr ruj birbirine çok benzeyen tonlarda ama Mehr mat Fast Play ise ıslak görünümde. Mac rujlar, özellikle de Satin, Amplified ve Matte olanlar beni hiç bir zaman yanıltmıyor. Kapatıcılık ve özellikle kalıcılık açısından vazgeçilmez rujlarım arasındalar. Bu iki ruj biraz koyu olduğu için kullanması zor gözükse de gece ve gündüz makyajı çok uygun renkler.

Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick in 140 Intense Pink Review and Swatches

2015-12-07T23:00:00.000+02:00

Another lipstick from the Maybelline Color Sensational line. Unlike 630 Velvet Beige, 140 Intense Pink has a subtle smell. It has a milky baby pink color with a creamy finish. Mac Creme Cup is a close dupe, Creme Cup is tiny bit sheerer.
140 Intense Pink isn't sold in the US or UK. You can find it at amazon.de or at Kruidvat in the Netherlands.

---
Türkiye'de satılmayan Maybelline Color Sensational ruj, bu koleksiyondan ülkemizde 14 farklı ruj tonu var ve genelde hepsi koyu tonlarda. 140 Intense Pink ise çok açık bebek pembesi tonlarında, en yakın muadil Mac Creme Cup ruj. Creme Cup biraz daha transparan görünümde.

No7 Skin Illuminator Radiance Boosting Beauty Fluid Highlighter in Peach Review and Swatches

2015-12-07T13:12:00.001+02:00

(1fl.oz./30ml) After seeing Lisa Eldrigde using this illuminator on Youtube for the 100th time, I decided I had to own it too. I have an oily skin and I never use highlighters / illuminators in any form, liquid, powder etc. And I find that highlighters echances the appearance of your pores and little bumps and stuff. No 7 illuminator was no exception, unfortunately. It's definitely more subtle and less frosty when compared to Benefit's High Beam.
The packaging makes the application worse, the bristles of the brush is stiff and it's not good for the delicate skin of the face. Between uses, the product inside the brush will dry and clog which then squeezing out new product becomes difficult.
You can find No7 Skin Illuminator at target.com in the US and at boots.com in the UK and Europe.

---
No 7 ürünleri Türkiye'de satılmıyor, umarım en kısa zamanda Watsons veya Gratis tarafından keşfedilirler. Hatta belki Boots Türkiye'de mağaza açar. Aydınlatıcı parlaklık veren bir ürün, yağlı ve karma ciltlerdense daha çok normalden kuruya kadar olan ciltlerin kullanımına uygun. Kullandığınız miktara bağlı olarak çok hafif bir parlaklık veriyor. Ambalajın üstündeki fırçanın yerine parmaklarınızla dağıtmak çok daha kolay.

Gosh Forever Metallic Waterproof Eye Shadow Stick in 02 Beige & 04 Brown Review and Swatches

2015-12-03T14:38:00.001+02:00

(0,1oz./1,5g) Gosh is my top favorite drugstore brand, I think it's even better than Revlon! I have yet to try a product that I don't love from them. Gosh eye shadow sticks come with 6 different shades which are all metallics. You can find these online at superdrug.com

02 Beige is a very light beige with tons of shimmers, the base color isn't visible too much. It's more like a ton of shimmers on a sheer base which is perfect for highlighting the browbone and the tearduct area.
04 Brown is a metallic cool toned brown. I love using this on my bottom lash line. You can blur it so easily while it's still wet and when it dries down it won't move all day.

---
Normalde Watsons yerine her zaman Gratis'i tercih ederdim ama son zamanlarda bunu değiştiren marka oldu Gosh. Bu mağazalarda satılan en kaliteli ürünlere sahip bence, renk seçenekleri de bir o kadar güzel. Hatta Revlon'dan bile çok seviyorum diyebilirim.
Gosh kalem farlar 6 farklı renk seçeneğiyle çıkıyor karşımıza, hepsi metalik. Ben 2 rengi aldım ve ikisinden de çok memnunum.
02 Beige metalikten daha çok parıltılı bir yapıya sahip. Özellikle kaş altı ve gözün iç kısımlarını aydınlatmada mükemmel bir renk.
04 Brown ise orta tonlarda soğuk kahve, metalik görünümde. Göze uygulaması ve dağıtması çok kolay. Çok parıltılı olduğu için gece makyajında kullanımı daha iyi olur diye düşünüyorum ama günlük kullanımda da gözünüzün altına rahatça uygulayabileceğiniz bir renk.

Rimmel London Apocalips Lip Lacquer in 600 Nude Eclipse, 101 Celestial & 303 Apocaliptic Review and Swatches

2015-12-01T11:52:00.002+02:00

(0,18oz./5,5g) The idea behind these lip glosses are, they are fluid lipsticks. They have the sheen and precise application of a lipgloss and they have the full coverage of a lipstick but they don't have any staying power. So you shouldn't mind touching up while wearing these. I find that because the application is very precise, it's not mistake proof so it makes it more difficult to apply than a regular lipstick. Apocalips lip glosses all have a creamy finish with a light weight texture. Overall I'm iffy about lip creams in general, I don't get the idea behind it, why would I want my lipstick to last shorter?
It's not hard to find inexpensive but high quality make up these days. Rimmel London products in general is one of the best when it comes to drugstore brands. So let's get on to reviewing each color.
600 Nude Eclipse is basically a concealer color in a lip gloss form, It's too light for my skin tone because it cancels out my lips. It's nude and even too nude, you need to be very fair skinned for this one.
101 Celestial is my favorite, this is the only one that I actualy used in my daily life, it's more forgiving when it comes to wearing off because it's the closest to my lip color.
303 Apocaliptic is in your face, bright and even neon reddish pink. As you can see on the pictures above it was the hardest to get a nice line around your lips because there is no place for errors with this one. It bleeds in no time just like the other two, but Apocaliptic will show the bleeding the most.
You can see all 8 shades photos and swatches on Pokachuu's blog by clicking here. Rimmel London Apocalips are available in US at drugstore.com and in the UK at uk.rimmellondon.com

---
Rimmel London Apocalips likit rujlar, ruj ve parlatıcı arasında bir tür olarak tasarlanmış. Kendisine göre avantajları ve dezavantajları var. Mesela normal bir rujun kalıcılığı yok, çok sıvı ve ince yapıda olduğu için dudağınıza sürdükten kısa bir süre sonra yok oluyorlar. Ama tıpkı bir parlatıcı gibi nemlendirme özelliğine sahip aynı zamanda çok kapatıcı. Rimmel London ürünlerini Türkiye'de Watsons'larda bulabilirsiniz.

Too Faced Chocolate Bon Bons Eye Shadow Palette - Coming Soon

2015-11-26T19:40:00.002+02:00

(49USD - Arriving Dec. 8th) I can't wait to touch and swatch this palette! And I love seeing more and more mattes in the latest nude palettes. I think Almond Truffle, Dark Truffle, Malted and Bordeaux would look perfect in the crease area and more lighter shades like Pecan Praline will compliment those shades as a base color. I don't like light and flat pinks like cotton candy but I don't mind seeing it here, since there are so many wearable shades in the new Too Faced Chocolate Bon Bons Eye Shadow palette.

It will be launched on toofaced.com , I don't know if Sephora will launch it on the same day though.

Mac Satin Lipstick in Brave & Faux Review and Swatches

2015-11-26T15:54:00.000+02:00

(0.10oz./2.8g - 17USD) No matter how boring is the Mac Cosmetics packaging, I can never seem to give up on using them. Mac eyeshadow, lipsticks and blushes will always have a place in my heart and soul. These two gorgeous lipsticks have the same finish, which is Satin, so they are intensely pigmented and semi-matte. Both shades are wearable everyday colors. They both look nude and a strong eye makeup such as smokey eye look would compliment these lips a lot. These are perfect nudes for fall, deeper and more brown hued. I think if you have one you don't need the other shade because they are very similar. For darker skin tones I would suggest Brave because Faux might look too Nicki Minaj like.

Brave is deeper than Faux, it's a mauve with a hint of beige. It looks a bit frosty due to the white shimmers that it has.

Faux is more of a pinky mauve, it has a creamy finish.

---

Mac Brave ve Faux, 2 benzer tonlarda ruj. İkiside dudak rengine çok benzer renklerde, ten renginize göre dudaklarınızın silik durmasını istemiyorsanız ama yine de nude ruj diyorsanız, bu tonlar çok ideal, hem pembe hem kahve arasında bir renk, ve dudaklarınız hem çok abartılı durmayacak kadar sade hem de dikkat çekecek kadar canlı renkte olacak.

Özellikle koyu tenliler için nude renkte ruj bulmak pek kolay değil, çünkü genelde çok açık oldukları için surata ölü bir ifade veriyorlar. Orta ve koyu renkleri olanlar için denemeye değer tonlar. Tabi bunlara çok benzer renkleri Maybelline, Gosh veya diğer drugstore markalarındada bulabilirsiniz. Maybelline Color Sensational 630 Velvet Beige Ruj ve Mac Faux muadil renkteler. Velvet Beige'in fotoğrafları ve yorumu için buraya tıklayın.

Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick in 630 Velvet Beige Review and Swatches

2015-11-20T16:34:00.000+02:00

(0,15oz./4,25g - 7,49USD) Another Color Sensational but you need to know that this lipstick has a strong unpleasent smell. It's different and stronger than other Color Sensationals. The color is a caramel leans more on the brown side, it has no shimmers but has a glossy finish. I love the shade it looks so retro and different.
In the USA Maybelline Color Sensational lipstick in number 630 is called Red Revolution which you can see my review on that here, but in Europe #630 is called Velvet Beige, why can't they have global products and colors? See the UK website here.

---
Türkiye'de bir çok kozmetik mağazasında bulabileceğiniz bir ürün, rengi mükemmel, çok farklı duruyor. Pembelerden ve bejlerden sıkıldıysanız bence bu rengi test edebilirsiniz. Biraz olgun bir renk olabilir ama değişiklik güzel. Maalesef Maybelline Color Sensational ruj serisinin en kötü özelliği dayanılmaz kokuları. Eskiden sadece plastik gibi kokardı, şimdi sanırım o kokuyu parfümle örtmeye çalışmışlar ve daha kötü bir sonuç çıkmış ortaya.

Bourjois Color Edition 24H Cream to Powder Texture Eye Shadow in Prune Nocturne Review and Swatches

2015-11-20T16:26:00.000+02:00

Generally I like Bourjois Paris products, they are high quality for a drugstore brand. Usually cream eye shadows are very difficult to work with. They either crease or smudge or you can't get an even layer if they are gel like. The worst that you can expect from a shadow.

So count them all and think just the opposite. Yes! This particular cream to powder eye shadow works like magic. It does what it says, you can feel the powdery creamy texture when you touch it. Texture wise they are quite similar to Chanel Illusion D'ombre, but Chanel is a bit bouncier and gets drier and drier over time. I had this Bourjois one for quite sometime and no shrinking yet.

Last but not least, Prune Nocturne is a plum with reddish sheen. It has a buildable color payoff.

---
Bourjois kısa zaman öncesine kadar Türkiye'de Watsons'larda satılıyordu, umarım en kısa zamanda tekrar getirirler. Belki Boyner'lerde hala vardır bilemiyorum. Ama eğer ulaşabilirseniz bu ürünü tavsiye ediyorum, mürdümün çok sıcak tonu, kızıl ışıltılı bir far. Krem - toz far olarak tasarlanmış ve çok kaliteli bir ürün.

Lancome Hypnose Star Eyes 5 Color Eye Shadow Palette Sculpted Eyes in ST1 Brun Adore Review and Swatches

2015-11-20T02:30:00.000+02:00

(0,09oz./2,7g - 50USD) Another favorite of mine, I love how all the shades are wearable but I wish that there were more mattes. The applicators are quite nice as well, the sponge tip one with the pointed tip is good for applying under the eyes.

The left most shade is a mid tone metallic beige-brown.
The middle top is a sheer black, lots of fall out.
The middle shade is a greyish taupe with a metallic finish.
Lowest one on the middle is a metallic beige.
The right most shade is similar to previous one, only little bit lighter.

---
Lancome far paleti çok güzel ve kesinlikle çok kullanışlı, özellikle aynasını her gün iş yerinde makyaj yaparken kullanıyorum ve bu paleti genelde yanımda taşıyorum. Gün içinde makyajınızı tazelemek isterseniz yanınıza fazladan fırça almanıza gerek yok, çünkü bu paletin içinde ince, dağınık ve yoğun uygulayabileceğiniz fırçalar mevcut.

Kısaca bu paletten çok memnunum, tabi eğer parlak far seviyorsanız çünkü siyah hariç diğer bütün renkler metalik şekilde. Gece makyajı ve dumanlı gözler için mükemmel. Günlük doğal makyaj içinse açık renkleri tercih edebilirsiniz.

Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in 477 Black Cherry Review and Swatches

2015-11-19T22:30:00.000+02:00

(0,15oz./4,2g - 8USD) This is almost an exact dupe of Tom Ford's Black Orchid, you definitely don't need to pay 52USD to Tom Ford when you have Black Cherry.
There are couple downfalls though, it's very difficult to get an even layer and even color on your lips, because the formulation is too liquidy for such an intense color. The duration is terrible, you shouldn't eat or drink anything whilst wearing this lipstick. You don't have that problem with many MAC ones.

---
Revlon'u uzun bir aradan sonra yeniden Türkiye'de görmek çok güzel, Watsons mağazalarında bulabilirsiniz. Bence Gosh'tan sonra en kaliteli drugstore markası. Black Cherry çok koyu bordo tonda bir ruj. Bordonun çok hafif mora bakan tonu diyebiliriz. Ama kalıcılık açısından hiç iyi değil, konuşurken bile hareket ediyor ruj.

Milani Color Statement Lipstick in 26 Nude Créme & 25 Naturally Chic Review and Swatches

2015-11-19T16:47:00.003+02:00

(0,14oz./4g - 5,29USD) The formulation of Milani lipsticks are very high quality, they will stay put and won't move around and have an opaque coverage, they feel kind of stiff and hard to glide on but I guess that's what makes them stay put on your lips. Keep in mind that they have a strong fruity scent.

26 Nude Creme is a pinkish nude with a creamy finish.

25 Naturally Chic is a caramel nude, more reddish.

---

Milani Türkiye'de satılıyor mu bilmiyorum ama instagramda Milani rujları satan yerler bulabilirsiniz. Tabi Amerika fiyatından çok farklılar. Açık cilt tonları için Nude Creme, koyu cilt tonları içinse Naturally Chic denemeye değer. Yapıları biraz sert ama kalıcılık açısından çok iyiler.

The Balm Nude Dude Eyeshadow Palette Vol. 2 Review and Swatches

2015-11-19T14:30:00.000+02:00

(0,336oz./9,6g - 36USD) Nude palettes always excites me, I loved the first edition of The Balm's Nude Tude and I love the second version even more, I think the colors in these are more wearable.

Fearless: A light matte nude.
Fabulous: Shimmery pale yellow.
Flawless: A matte bisque shade, a dupe of Cork by Mac. I sometimes use this to fill in my eyebrows.
Faithful: Shimmery,light peachy copper.
Firm: Shimmery bronze.
Fit: Again a very shimmery color, a golden rose.
Flirty: A purplish taupe with tons of golden shimmers.
Feisty: Matte, light caramel.
Friendly: Deep, rich brown, matte.
Funny: Rusty brown with golden shimmers.
Fierce: Black with shimmers.
Fine: Neutral shimmery dark brown

---
The Balm Nude Dude far paletini bir kaç ay önce Gratis'ten aldım. Bu paletin birinci versiyonu olan Nude Tude far paletini çok beğenmiştim, hala kullanıyorum. Ama bence bu ikinci paletteki renkler daha kullanışlı, özellikle mat farlar çok güzel. Bu palette baz olarak kullanabileceğiniz veya farklı doğal veya gece makyajı yapmak için kullanabileceğiniz 12 farklı renk mevcut. The Balm mat göz farları uygularken biraz göz altına dökülebiliyorlar, metaliklerde bu sorun çok yok. Yine de sonuç olarak Gratis'e gidildiğinde dokunulup hissedilmesi gereken bir far paleti.

Giorgio Armani Eyes to Kill Eyeshadow Quad in 6 Terra Sienna Review and Swatches

2015-11-19T11:33:00.001+02:00

(0,212oz./6g - 60USD) Did you realize that sometimes in a same palette, shimmery colors are very smooth where matte colors are hard to blend and not smooth at all. Well, in this palette you'll find that every single shade has an amazing formula and texture that is buttery, easily blendable and pigmented at the same time. I am very pleased with my purchase. And even though the darkest shade is a matte it doesn't have any fall out.

Giorgio Armani eye shadow palette has a decent packaging. The material feels identical to Chanel products so it won't have scratches all over. But the rounded shape of the case makes it hard to use the mirror.

First shade on the top is a pink champagne, has pearlescent finish.
Second shade is a more metallic pewter one.
Third shade is a soft reddish matte brown, a dupe of Corduroy by Mac.
The last shade is a deep eggplant, matte.

You can find Giorgio Armani Beauty at Nordstrom or Barney's.
---
Giorgio Armani makyaj ürünlerini Türkiye'de Sevil mağazalarında bulabilirsiniz, tabi yurtdışından almak her zaman daha mantıklı, ülkemizdeki kozmetik mağazaları fiyatlarını şişirmeyi çok seviyorlar, tabi Watsons ve Gratis'i ayrı tutarak söylüyorum.
Giorgio Armani far paletine gelirsek, dokunduğunuzda yumuşaklığını hissedebileceğiniz kadar kaliteli 4 birbiriyle uyan renkten oluşuyor bu palet. Renkler çok özel değil, diğer markalarda rahatlıkla bulabileceğiniz göz farı renkleri ama Armani kalitesini göstermiş bence.

Bobbi Brown Long Wear Cream Eye Shadow in 14 Beach Honey Review and Swatches

2015-11-19T10:00:00.000+02:00

(0,12oz./3,5g - 26USD) Seems like everybody's loving Bobbi Brown cream eye shadows in general. I've only tried this one and not enjoying it. Both the formula and the color doesn't feel right to me. Yes it looks pretty when swatched but too frosty looking on the eyes, there are so many gorgeous highlighting shades and beach honey is not one of them.
About the formula, it's too sticky and won't glide on, you'll tug on your lids when applying. It's also very difficult to get an even layer with this.

---
Bu Bobbi Brown krem göz farını internetten, sanırım Markafoni'den görmeden almıştım, denemiş olsam kesinlikle almazdım. Çok yapışkan ve gözde uygulaması ve dağıtması çok zor bir yapıda. Bir kaç şans verdim kendisine ama yine de iyi geçinemedik. Bir süre daha makyaj dolabımda tatlı tatlı bana baktıktan sonra elveda deme vakti gelecek kendisine.

NYC City Proof Twistable Intense Lip Color in 011 Brooklyn Brown Stone Review and Swatches

2015-11-18T17:00:00.000+02:00

By looking at the picture you can see how gorgeous that lipstick is. It's buttery smooth and intensely pigmented. Brooklyn Brown Stone has a creamy finish, you'll have an even color with this one which is a nude but more muted caramel like. It's more reddish than your regular skin toned nudes.

---

NYC Watsons Türkiye'de bulabileceğiniz çok hesaplı bir marka, göz farlarının kalitelerinden emin değilim ama bu kalem rujlar ve diğer keçeli kalem tarzı rujları çok kaliteli. Brooklyn Brown Stone rengi kremsi yapıda ve karamel tonlarında.

Gucci Beauty Magnetic Color Eye Shadow Duo in 060 Fumé Review and Swatches

2015-11-18T15:28:00.001+02:00

(0,09oz./2,6g - 49USD) I love Gucci packaging they are not only very pretty but also very usefull. I can apply my eyeshadow with this small mirror and put in my purse to go. This time the brushes are one sided, one is a sponge tip and the other is a soft bristled brush.
The first color in the palette is a grey with shimmers, the grey shade leans more on the khaki side in certain lights. But never greenish on the eyes.
I wanted to love the brown shadow, because it's a great shade of deep shimmery brown. The problem is it's being too sheer, very difficult to get a color payfoff with this one and unfortunately it has tons of fall out.

Tom Ford Cheek Color Blush in 06 Wicked Review and Swatches

2015-11-17T22:00:00.000+02:00

(0,28oz./8g - 60USD) I loved that luxurious Tom Ford packaging but now that my blush is 1 year old I can see scratches all over it. Still an eye candy.
Wicked is a bright pink with a subtle sheen, it's too pink to use a generous amount. There is a fine line being pretty and looking like a clown when using such colors.

Gucci Beauty Magnetic Color Eye Shadow Quad in 020 Tuscan Storm Review and Swatches

2015-11-17T15:49:00.004+02:00

(0,17oz./5g - 65USD) I must say Gucci did a great job with the convenience of this palette, it's the size of my palm and has a giant mirror inside. There is two usable applicators in it, one side is a sponge tip and the other is a brush with high quality bristles.

First shade, I use on my browbone with the brush applicator it comes in. Very sheer and pearly golden color, gives a hint of sheen when applied lightly.
The second shade is a soft grey, more on the warm side, again with a pearl finish.
Third shade is a matte caramel.
And then the last shade is a fail. Just because that it has a poor color payoff, it's not buttery like the other colors but it's too powdery which falls out while applying to your eyelids. Too bad that it's a lovely color but very difficult to use.

Too Faced Natural Radiance Face Palette Review and Swatches

2015-11-17T13:22:00.002+02:00

(0,65oz./18,3g - 39USD) Being a fan of Too Faced, I am not happy to say that I don't like MOST of this palette, it has a poor quality. Everything you need for the face, in one compact palette sounds like a great idea though. I remember my mom got me a toy makeup set when I was a child, overall this palette has that cheap smell.

Bronze Veil, my favorite thing of this palette, a dark bronzer, has tiny shimmers.
Creme Blush, too sticky and too oily, I can feel how badly this would break me out.
Blush, which is powder is nice, very similar to Nars Orgasm, bright peachy pink with golden shimmers.
Conceal, very thick and cakey to use on the face and creases horribly under the eyes.
Luminize, except for creasing it's not a bad product, has a nice glowy finish.
Brighten must be the worst, it has weird uneven finish when applied.
