La Femme Blush : Heather, Orchid Ice



bynki.blogspot.com
La Femme Blush On Rouge In Heather & Orchid Ice
 
I have heard many great things about la femme rouge blushes and decided to try them out myself, they are incredibly good and highly pigmented. They are so soft and easy to blend and i wished i had ordered more, they match up to Mac blushes (even better) and have various colours. Orchid ice is a cool pink with sheer subtle while Heather is a soft natural peach / coral colour. These blushes are amazing and are fully matte which i love, they last all day and look beautiful. They are inexpensive and have dozens of shades to choose from, the packaging is also very simple and easy to open, i highly recommend.  xoxo bynki

GB October Edition

Nothing Dark Romance In This Box

Hi guys, so i received my october glossy box today and i must say that i am unimpressed, everything inside the box was blah and poor and not even a full size product inside. My box contained

MeMeMe Cherub's Blush for Cheek and Lip
Vita Liberata Illuminating Skin Finish
Monu Illuminating Primer
Premae Multi Vit Smoothie Serum
Unica Kiss It Better Cream

Dissappointing box

I didn't border writing reviews on them because i haven't used them and frankly don't intend to, although i will give the mememe cherub's blush and monu illuminating primer a try and do a review on them later. I was so excited for this box, with a theme title 'Dark Romance', i was expecting dark autumn colours or bronzed face products, so you can imagine my sad face when i opened the box and found nothing dark about it. The box content is worth around £24 so it's still a very good bargain just that the products inside aren't for me. Am still subscribing so better luck for next month's box. Have a good week everyone and thanks for stopping by bynki.  xoxo bynki

L.A Colors...Color Craze Review



bynki.blogspot.com
LA Colors Nail Polish
  
Hi guys, hope you are all enjoying your weekend, so i got these nail polish from my friend Buchi who is a nail artist, she sent me these polish last week and asked for a review. Because i have used them before, i know they are good, I am very pleased at the quality and pretty content with the retail price at £2, they are thick and creamy and not runny. I usually do two coats to get a good density but one coat can also do the job if you like your nails very light, they also last for about 4-7 days depending on how much work your hands goes through. They come in many lovely colours and the shine is incredible even without a clear top coat, overall the quality of these nail polish are okay for the price and i would say check them out.  xoxo bynki

Product Alert!


bynki.blogspot.com

This is my product alert for the month, Khroma beauty. I have done a surface review on them before but because they are very good, i decided to alert you guys again about them, they really deliver and get the job done, they are highly pigmented and rich, the consistency and texture blends beautifully well. I like the fact that the joystick is retractable and that saves me the worry of sharpening, they also have a creamy glossy like finish on the lip. It looks abit cheap because it comes in a plastic tube but for me, it's all about the content inside, the tube cap also secures tightly so no fear of spillage in your bag.

Modern Mauve

This is the swatch for the joystick i have, it's called Modern Mauve and it's a nude colour which is quite similar to Mac's creme'd nude but this one has a bit of peachy tone to it, i use it almost everyday on myself and also on a few brides who don't like colours on their lips.

Intimate Spotlight

This is the intimate spotlight swatch, a rose gold with metallic shimmer. I really like this highlight because it is intense and blends very well. I always use my fingers to apply it and i advice that you apply it first before your set your face with powder, the wear time is around 6 hours and be rest assured that your face will not be clouded with glitter as the colour payoff is very soft. It comes in a small plastic round container, very cheap looking as there are other unique ones out there but that said, it's still a great product and i really like it.  xoxo bynki

YSL Forever Youth Liberator Range



bynki.blogspot.com
YSL Forever Youth Serum £61.00 (30ml) & Cleaning Foam £35.00

This is a skincare product from beauty giant YSL calls the Forever Youth Liberator range and this two above is a combination of the facial serum and the facial cleaning foam to give a youthful look and elasticity, it has a moisturizer and anti-ageing ingredients combined together to defend skin against wrinkles and fine lines. I got this awhile back but only started using it recently and i must say what a fantastic product, it makes my skin very soft and i am super impressed with it's performance.

This is the face serum and it helps clear wrinkles on the face, it's got a clear texture and easily dissappears into skin once you rub it on, it does;nt break out skin or cause irritation because it contains Elycans which naturally unlock cellular in the body helping to liberate skin's youthful potentials. It comes in a sleek glass  bottle with a dropper to allow to apply the number of drops you might need, i normally use 1-2 drops. It's a great serum to have, only down side is the price, it's expensive but it's worth every penny.

This is the cleaning foam that comes in a tube for preping the face to apply the serum above, it's a creamy white texture that lathers up easily into foam, it makes the face cool and you get the feeliing that your face has been squeaky cleanse when you use this product. It's just like a cleanse but in a foamy formula, it does'nt dry the skin like other cleanser do and it smells Amazing. The only con about it is also the price, it's expensive but like i said, it's worth it and you will really enjoy using it. It doesn't cause breakout and gives full radaint to the face whilst also tightening the skin. It comes in a squeezy tube and like i said it smells divine and that's one part i always look forward to as i can't stop sniffing it whenever i open the tube. If you like YSL products and your wallet will be happy to shed out some cash then i approve these two products, stop by their counter to give it a test try and better your skin with the forever youth liberator range.  xoxo bynki

Dupe? Not Yet


bynki.blogspot.com
Rimmel London Kate 107
 
Still finding a dupe for riri talkdattalk lipstick, this one by supermodel Kate Moss is pretty close. Looks red in picture but in real looks alot like the riri one, very berry dark plum like, the reason i say dupe, not yet? is because of the texture, it is smooth and creamy unlike talkdattalk that is full matte. Still on the search for it thou because i want a full matte plum. Have a great week everyone!  xoxo bynki

RiRi Hearts Mac Fall Collection

bynki.blogspot.com

So i managed to get just these two from the RiRi Mac fall collection because all the other items sold out in 3 mins, i said 3 mins because i was logged on and put the items in my basket and when i got to checkout, it told me sold out, i was so upset i missed out on talk dat talk lippie but thankfully i got this two to cheer me up even though Hibiscus kiss is a relaunch


The packaging is chic and beautiful in rose gold casing and i really like it, it makes it more limited edition and unique unlike the normal black Mac package we are used to. From left to right is the Hibiscus kiss powder blush duo and Who's dat Chic lipstick which so happens to be my favourite out of all the lipsticks.



This lipstick is a golden frost with orange tone and i really like it, it glides on easily and is very smooth, i think am going to enjoy using this lippie cos i like frost lip too, it would suit warm skin women.



Hibiscus kiss is a combination of both bronzer and blush and i really like it too, it gives a matte look and applies very smooth, you can mix both colours together to get a tan look with pretty coral cheek. I like the fact that the blush is alot more unlike the summer collection had a tiny blush side inside the compact but this new one is almost the same size as the bronzer, i tend to use bronzer more than blush so both will last me a long time, two shades for the price of one is a beautiful bargain so this duo is fab. Overall this collection is okay even thougt i missed out on what i really wanted, the good girl gone bad blush, talk dat talk lipstick and the diamond creme, i already have riri woo, just love it and can't get enough of it. Did you get anything from the collection? what are your thoughts?  xoxo bynki

Impress Press-On Manicure

Impress Press On Manicure. £8.99

I recently worked on a bride who wanted a nail colour change the morning of her wedding, i was completely thrown-off guard when she ask if i could help her out? Am a makeup artist and i don't do manicure so i was worried how on earth i was going to give her nails a perfect smudge free manicure especially on her wedding day, what if she did'nt like it? i tryed to persuade her to leave the one she had on, as it was beautiful / done in a salon by nail experts but she said she wanted something Daring.....Oooh bridezilla i thot to myself. Well i quickly thought of press-on mani and dashed out to get this, i got the Impress press-on manicure in Holla, a perfectly shaped, polished and designed press-on nails with no fuss, no chip or drying time. I had her nails done in less than 12 mins.

They Come In Different Designs And Colours

I didn't have to do much, i just wiped her nails clean and matched her nails to get the appropriate sizes, then i peeled off the plastic glue tab underneath the press nails, put it on top her nail bed and then pressed it down and that was it. No mess, no drying time needed, no glue, i was amazed how beautiful and shiney they looked....perfect like real manicure, the bride was happy and so was i. The packaging was cute as well, the nails were packed inside a transparent plastic nail polish shape bottle so you can see what you're buying, the bottle has a black twist cap that opens to reveal the nails and closes tight again to keep the nails full adhesive strenght and also for easy storage.
