Dramatic Summer Makeup Trends For 2019





.

The new dramatic summer makeup trends are very sensational and innovative than the typical Smokey blackish eyes and blood red lipstick. These trends will guide you through Spring/Summer season. These vibrant to cool colors and subtle styles are looking pleasant to eyes and feeling as a fresh breath of air.

First of all I want to tell you all that color blocking and vibrancy is although in fashion, but monochromatic makeup is also making headlines in makeup world. The best monochromatic makeup look can be created in soft pink and coral shade. 


You can check your malls and get easily a range of pinky blush-on, eyeshadow and lipstick to create your own monochromatic look. I am loving Emma Stone’s pinkish monochromatic makeover.


The green eyeshadow can be detected everywhere in makeup world as it is the new hot sensation. From dark green to neon green, many celebrities are taking a step ahead to try this new trend of green.



For lipsticks, the blood red is every woman’s first choice but in 2019, every woman should replace her red lipstick for bright shades of pink and corals. These two soft but vibrant colors will give you fresh look for the upcoming summer season.



For the skin, the natural flawless radiant skin is not going anywhere. Use light coverage foundation and concealer to create a dramatic spotless illuminating skin. Eat healthy, apply good products to take care of your skin so that when you create these 2019 trends, your skin not only glows but also gives you a totally fresh look.

Review - Essence XXXL Shine Lip Gloss - 37 Miss Watermelon






.

Lip-gloss works wonderfully and gives an attractive pampered look to your lips, especially if it is properly used on a lipstick or directly on lips; in both ways a lip gloss enhances the overall effect.

Some days back I started using an Essence lip gloss and my first impression was “not bad at all”. Actually I have gone through some bad reviews about it, so I was a little bit confused. But then I decided to give it a try and have my own experience with this lip gloss.

So, here I am sharing my review of Essence XXXL Shine Lip Gloss - 37 Miss Watermelon with all of you.

The Brand Claims: 

Essence cosmetics are quite affordable and can be purchased from any shopping mall. The drugstore brand has a long range of beauty products including eye makeup, foundations, creams and all kind of lip accessories.


Our Verdict:

The XXXL Shine Lip Gloss (37 Miss Watermelon) by Essence is in pinkish shade, a true watermelon color with a tint of shine and shimmer. This subtle shade is pretty beautiful as it provides a very refreshing look.

The packaging is an usual long transparent cylindrical tube with a tight cap. The applicator is a long one with a sponge tip that picks the right amount of the lip gloss, and helps in applying it in one swipe with an even look.


It works greatly if applied over a matte lipstick, as it adds a tad of silken polish to a dry matte look. It can be used directly on lips without any lipstick and looks good.

The formula of Essence XXXL Shine Lip Gloss is smooth and creamy but not very sticky. It has a normal consistency with moderate thickness that feels good on the lips. It can perfectly moisturize your lips.


There is a fruity fragrance that smells good. The staying power is not very good as it stays for just 1-2 hours and than you have to apply it again. This is the down side of the product.

Rating: 


I would recommend it to all of you because it is a nice lip gloss to add in your vanity.

Review - Oriflame Offers A Wide Range Of Lipsticks For Every Occasion






.

We all like to buy different lipsticks with distinct texture and pigmentation; the selection of shades are always as per our desire and requirement. However, it is really difficult to find all desired shades from the same makeup brand. Even top-notch brands fail to offer variety of shades, and frankly speaking this is a big turn off for all makeup lovers.

Oriflamea fifty years old direct selling cosmetics company, is one of the most trusted cosmetic brands that offer a huge variety of quality products. 


The brand has particularly introduced a wide range of high quality lipsticks in numerous hues and tones to satisfy their customers’ need. This is the reason, Oriflame has been appreciated by women all over the world.


Today, we will cover the detailed review (sorry readers, please read it as "long review") of two different Oriflame lipstick collections.

Our Verdict: 

We have used these Oriflame lipsticks for a couple of weeks before writing this review. So, now we can say that these lipsticks are rich in color with smooth creamy finish. They are really good when it comes to “care for lips hydration”. All lipsticks can glide over your lips very easily and do not need extra lip-gloss or lip balm. The packaging is lightweight and easy to carry in a small bag. Both the Pure Color and The One range has numerous shades, which will make you confuse in your color selection.

Now you can read the detailed review of the four different shades. 

Pure Colour Lipstick – Silver Pink


It is a combination of pinkish shade with a silver touch. It has a shiny and creamy effect that helps in moisturizing the lips. It is very easy to apply; it has “glides over the lips” tendency and gives you a desired look without using any lip-gloss. The Pure Color range has a 4-6 hours staying power. 


The bullet-shaped lipsticks are easy to carry in small clutch or handbag. The beautifully pigmented creamy lipsticks come in plastic packaging with a transparent cap. There is a variety of colors in this specific range and the most important factor is that they all are available in affordable price.


Pure Colour Lipstick – Tempting Brown

The bullet shaped Tempting brown from the Pure Color Lipstick range is the most beautiful shade. With two to three swipes you will get your desired darker shade. However, the single swipe gives a really tempting brownish shade to match any outfit. 


It has a brilliant satin finish;  there will be no need to apply any lip gloss. This lipstick gives a very smooth texture and perfectly moisturizes your lips. The staying power is low with only 2 hours.

The One 5-In-1 Colour Stylist Lipstick - Cranberry blush 

Cranberry blush of the One 5-In-1 Colour stylist lipstick is a beautiful rich shade with a strong creamy texture that provides good coverage. The presence of cocoa butter helps in hydration and moisturizes lips very well. 


The highly pigmented shade gives a perfect hue in one swipe. If you want a deeper dreamy look, go for multiple swipes. It glides over the lips very easily and gives a satin finish. 

The staying power is 5 to 6 hours. The 5-In-1 Colour Stylist Lipsticks are available in variety of beautiful shades.


The ONE Colour Unlimited Matte Lipstick - Coral Matte

The Coral Matte from ONE Colour Unlimited Matte Lipstick is another fine addition into your makeup box. It has a sleek packaging, perfect for carrying it in a handbag. The orangish shade slim lipstick has a promising coverage. Although it has a matte finish but it is smooth enough to glide over your lips. It helps in hydration just like a lip balm. The fruity smell lipstick stays for around 4 hours easily.


Availability:

All Oriflame cosmetics including the lipstick range is easily available on their official Website Oriflame.

It can be ordered through Oriflame’s authorized consultants in your area as well. 

Rating:

The Oriflame’s lipstick range is perfect for sensational and exciting shades. Our rating for these lovely lipsticks is 5/5 and we recommend it to all of you!

So, dear friends, do share your thoughts in comment section about the Oriflame Lipstick range.

Review - Oriflame's Pure Colour Nail Polishes






.

All women love to have beautiful hands with well manicured nails. To further enhance their hands' beauty; nail paints are used by women all over the world. Nail polishes complete the overall matching concept of dress and makeup look in a very glamorous way.

Like others, we always try to go for enchanting nail polish shades to create some interesting look. Other than colour, the finishing quality is an important factor in any nail paint. Many brands fail to produce good finish-glossy nail polishes. However, Oriflame has introduced a wide range of Pure Colour Nail Polish with not only fascinating shades but with high quality gloss for an impressive look.

In this review we will share our experience of Oriflame Pure Color Nail Polish. Lets see what the brand claims and what we have found in these nail polishes.

The Brand Claims:

Oriflame is a direct selling cosmetics company offering wide range of high quality beauty products since 50 years. Oriflame’s Pure Color nail polish range has exciting colors with glossy, high-shine gorgeous finish to allure all women.

Our Verdict:

We have two different shades from Pure Color range; Red Classic and Pink Intense. These nail polishes have a wonderful formula that builds a smooth, shiny and flawless texture. It is slightly thin in its consistency but it manages to provide a superb silky double coat. The thin applicator (brush) is a backdrop of this range. However, the soft thin formula fantastically merges the different strokes without any lumps. The staying power is amazing; it lasts for more than 5 days without chipping.


The Red Classic 

The Red Classic nail paint is an ultimate choice for a formal evening wear. This highly pigmented nail polish is perfect for creating some sensational look with extra shine and gloss. The single coat gives a good coverage with fascinating shade, but the double coat produces a thrilling deep red classic look.


The Pink Intense 

The Pink Intense nail paint is a beautiful and refreshing pinkish shade that can be used at any time of the day. It is a tricky color as it can play well with its matching scheme; and creates contrasting effect with any light colored dress. This lovely shade looks light pink with its single coat, but it intensifies as soon as the double coat dries.  


Packaging:

The Pure Color variety comes in a small round, transparent glass bottle with a black plastic cap, containing 8ml 0.2 fl.oz. The size of the bottle is small enough to carry in any handbag. The tightly fitted cap prevents any leakage, making it travel friendly.



Availability:

Oriflame’s cosmetics including the Pure Color Nail Polish range is easily available on their official Website Oriflame.

It can be ordered through Oriflame’s authorized consultants in your area as well.

Rating:

The Oriflame’s Pure Color Nail Polish range is perfect for exciting glossy shades. Our rating for these nail paints is 5/5 and we recommend it to all of you to try these nail polishes.

The Bold Lip Tip






.
Photo: Web 

Bold and vivid lip color is always flattering and looks stunning on all women, irrespective of their age. One thing that a woman should consider while wearing a bold lip color, is to soften the other face makeup; it includes the eye-makeup and blush. 

The reason is simple, wearing bold eye-makeup and loud blush with bold lip color will turn you into a buffoon. Believe me, you will look like a slapstick comedian with colorful face.

Photo: Web

A lip gloss can attract attention no matter you are wearing it in right or wrong manner. Lip gloss is also a perfect match for making your bold lip color more subtle and saturating. It’s a look-defining thing that works well with all skin tones.

Photo: Web


Lip gloss is a wonderful thing for women with thin to moderate lips. Whether you select something timeless like red or opt for cool shades like fuchsia and tangerine, just add some clear gloss over a layer of your bold lip color and here you have an impression of fuller lips.

However, keep it in mind to avoid any glittery gloss because it will end up by giving you an overly done lip-effect.

MAC Liquid Make-up: 2 Perfect Lipstick and Lipgloss






.
Photo: Oh, Lady Mania!
Hello everyone, Happy New Year and Happy Winter Season to all of you. My first shopping of 2016 is comprised of some warm clothing and new make-up shades for cold and dry season. Today I will share my experience of MAC Liquid Make-up with you.

Lets see what I have found in this product:

The MAC Liquid Make-up: 2 Perfect Lipstick and Lipgloss is an amazing product with dual option of lipstick and lip gloss in one single cylindrical style - the one end has a bullet shape lipstick and the other has lipgloss.

It comes in a variety of colors that makes it easy for you to choose from an array of light and dark shades.


Application:

Applying this product on your lips seems pretty easy as direct application of the lipstick gives a smooth, shiny and full shade coverage in one single go. If you have a habit of applying lipstick with the help of a lipstick brush, MAC Liquid make-up will give you same even charming results with or without brush. Its lip gloss further enhances the effect of lipstick shade by giving it more lustrous and shinny look. The single coat of glittery lip-gloss makes your lipstick one shade darker in color tone that remains as it is for at least 4-6 hours.


My Verdict:

The availability of lipstick and matching lipgloss in one single compact shape is easy to carry in small hand bags or clutches. The color tone of both lipstick and lipgloss gives you an almost the same richer look that you witness when the product is on the shelf.

Availability:

It is easily available as a drugstore cosmetic and can be ordered online for your convenience. It is easily affordable as the price is almost same everywhere.

My Rating:

I would rate it 4/5.

Review: Odho Cosmetics Lipstick






.
Photo: Oh Lady Mania
Hello everyone,

Today I am going to post a review of a lipstick from the Odho Cosmetics. I bought it from Scentsation, Dolmen Mall Clifton. I have been using this for the past fifteen days and I am going to tell you about its results.

So, let’s see what I have gathered about this lipstick from my experience:

The Brand Claims:

Atiqa Odho cosmetics have maintained their quality since day one. It is an ISO certified brand of Pakistan. Keeping in mind the Pakistan’s women skin tones, the Odho cosmetics have been created with good quality products at affordable prices.

Photo: Oh Lady Mania
My Verdict:

Odho’s lipsticks have been endorsed as halal products because no lead or animal fat has been used in their formula.

As far as the packaging is concerned, the lipsticks come in a red and golden color combination bullet with a knob style cover. It looks pretty attractive due to vibrant colour covering.

I have found my lipstick a little bit creamy with hydrating texture. With its moisturizing quality, it slides smoothly on lips without highlighting the fine lines. My Odho lipstick lasts up to five to six hours with an amazing comfortable feel. Surprisingly, it doesn’t bleed like some other lipsticks. The colour is as per my choice so I selected it within few minutes. 

Photo: Oh Lady Mania

All things considered, I liked my Odho lipsticks for its moisturizing coverage that lasted for good five hours. I always like to have light colours and I found this shade as a good collection in my cosmetics.

I have not tried the matte lipsticks of Odho cosmetics so I can’t say what they would be in texture and pigment. However, I can say that my selected lipstick was a nice decision as it is up to the scale of international brands.

My Rating:

I would rate it 4/5

Availability:

Odho cosmetics are available at all leading stores in all big cities. These can be purchased online as well.
