PACKAGING:The eye shadow comes in a little round pot that has the same shade as the eye shadow itself.The shade name is provided on the cap.The packaging is sturdy but this one broke in transit. 😦 .However,it is still manageable as there is hardly any fallout.

SHADE:Rose Tentation is  a very beautiful pink with iridescent green in it.It is very unique and a great shade for Indian ethnic wear.The shade is shimmery.

Left: Wet; Right: Dry

MY VIEWS:The eyeshadow is smooth.It is shimmery but the shimmer particles are non-grittty.The shadow has little fallout when swiped with brush but goes on smoothly on lids.It is decently pigmented and 2 swipes can provides enough shade on lids.I love the fact that I can use this wet as well as dry as the shadow is baked.It gets intensified when used wet and the duochrome green effect is much visible.

The shade is easy to blend out with other shades and the pigmentation increases when used over a base.It doesn’t crease or fade for about 6-7 hours and is a great option for special occasions as the shade is very festive.

RATING:4.5/5

RECOMMENDATION:The shade is very pretty and I highly recommend buying this if you want a nice pink for Wedding or party purpose.The duo chrome effect adds a pretty dimension to the shade.

PRICE:rs.465

PACKAGING:The packaging is really pretty and like other products(blushes and eyeshadow),these come in a little round pot in the same shade as the eyeshadow. Also,these babies have silver coloured magnetic pressable button that shuts down quite sturdily avoiding harm to the eyeshadow.No brush or mirror is there.A small card is present proving instruction for usage of the eyeshadow.

SHADE: Out of the 3 luminous shades available,no.3 is described as a ‘powdery greyish pink’.I would describe it as a highly frosty shimmery silver with lilac-purple(ish) undertones.

03 swatch

MY VIEWS: The shadow has a soft and smooth formula.It isshimmery but non-gritty and non-abrasive.It is easy to apply and blend.I had never used this shadow earlier but when the S.A. at Bourjois demonstrated the use of this beauty;I was stunned.This shadow can be used as a base for other shadows as in that it provides an illuminating effect.Just apply this shadow and work on it as if this is a shadow base.It does provide an illuminating effect and the whole look sparks off!!I have used shadow alone as well and it works well that way too!The shadow does has fallout but its very minimal.

Coming to the pigmentation,the shadow is insanely pigmented.You have to be careful else it can be easily overdone.The shimmer particles are visible but they don’t fly all or the face and aren’t so chunky.03 can be applied dry as well as wet.The lilac undertone is visible but its not very prominent.It stays for about 6-7 hours which is amazing!

RATING:5/5

RECOMMENDATION:A great shade that complements and blends well with other shades,can be used for smokey ,subtle looks as well as for brightening effect.I highly suggest checking this out.

Bourjois Paris liner clubbing Ultra Black liquid eyeliner Review, Swatches & EOTD

ABOUT:Easy to use and apply, this blacker than black liner helps create intensely beautiful and sexy ‘doe eyes’.
Formula enriched with black mineral pigments for maximum intensity.
Ultra resistant, with 8 hour hold. 100% sweat and tear proof – tested and approved by clubbers.

Can be removed with a non-oily make-up remover.

PRICE:rs.710 for 4ml.

PACKAGING:A black plastic outer packaging with a thin applicator brush.The packaging is nice,sleek and sturdy!!The brush is thin and long which enables drawing very thin lines too but this can be a difficulty for beginners as they might not be able to draw precisely.

SHADE:I chose the shade Ultra Black ,there is one more black available but this one is considered to be jet black and I truly agree with that.The shade is an amazing black that I adore to bits and has glossy finish.

swatch

MY VIEWS:The liner has thin liquidy consistency but it’s not runny.When applied,you can feel the thin texture as against thick .It provides glossy finish but it’s not among those shiny finishes but I hate!!It provides a very classy look and definitely stands out.It is water-resistant but not waterproof and comes off easily with mild cleanser or even with water.

It dries up quickly and I like the fact that I can draw the thinnest possible line or thicken it as per need.I love to draw a winged liner using this.It stays comfortably for about 7-8 hours.The liner doesn’t crack or chip when worn.

However,this isn’t a cup of tea for everyone as you need to have a sturdy hand while using this.Also,this can never be my choice when I am in a hurry.

RATING:4.25/5

RECOMMENDATION:I love the formula,finish and quality of the liner.The tip is amazingly thin and I can doodle using this liner as well.I love Bourjois for its awesome products,packaging however,the price has been ever-increasing which keeps many of us away from trying the great products.

 

Bourjois Lune D’or Blush Review & Swatches

ABOUT: Bourjois Little Round Blush is Softer and more velvety thanks to a new pearl effect and a skilful blend of pigments. The baked texture is transformed on the skin into a light ultra-fine pressed powder, that is easy to apply and blends impeccably. One stroke of the brush reveals the irresistible aroma of rose scented powder.

PACKAGING: The blush has a very cute round pot packaging having similar shade as the blush.A dense dome-shaped blush brush is provided which is easy to use but I hardly use it.The shade name and number is provided at the back as well as in front of the packaging.The blush has a small round mirror at the other end.I find the packaging very girly,it is sturdy ,travel friendly and closes securely with a lock.

SHADE: This blush is a shimmery light rosy pink color with tiny gold reflects.When applied alone it is very sheer, and can be used lightly as a highlight color. The color can be built up to a more light peachy/gold color on the cheek which look very pretty.The blush has a sweet fragrance that is reminiscent to all Bourjois blushes.

MY VIEWS: The texture is smooth though not very satin soft as this is a baked blush.The shimmer present is soft and minute.It does show up on cheeks and is a bit too much for those who prefer matte blushes. It is a sheer shade but it does show up on my skin if swiped 3-4 times.It is more of a highlighter shade than blush and leaves a pearlescent glow on my face.It stays for about 5-6 hours.

dry swatch

The shimmer doesn’t clog pores neither accentuate them.It is baked so the upper layer gets hardened after sometime which can be renewed by scratching the top layer.

RATING: 4/5

RECOMMENDATION:I adore the shade and everything about this blush but the ever-increasing price makes it one main grudge.I highly recommend grabbing at least one shade.
