MACs Sized To Go LE



Hey Beautylovers,

Today I want to tell you about the MAC Sized To Go LE, which was released at the beginning of this month.

In this LE are a lot of useful products in small travel sizes, which is great especially since the summer holidays are getting closer. In this Sized To Go LE they have a cleanser, wipes, moisturizers, creams and so on, but aside from the skin care products they have small Pigments, Lipglass, Mascaras and Nail polishes.

From all these products I got three Pigments in Kitschmas, Old Gold and Blue Brown (which I got because Shannon from Shaaanxo recommended them. Her Blog, her YouTube channel and her Shop. I want to order some of her brushes and lashes in a few weeks and when I have the things I want, I will review them for you guys;) )



Aside from the Pigments I got two Lipglass, one in Pink Lemonade and the other in Rebel. And last but not least is the Oil Control Lotion. I also wanted to get the Strobe Cream but it was already out in the MAC online shop.

Okay now to the Pigments, they are all beautiful, pigmented and easy to apply. At the moment I often wear Kitschmas because you can wear it easily in a daytime look. The other two colours, Blue Brown and Old Gold, I prefer to wear in the evening because they are so pigmented and strong. But sometimes I like to use Old Gold to just dust it over a copper or brown eye look.











The two Lipglass are great too. I love to use Pink Lemonade (a peachy pink colour with a little shimmer) during the day, when I go to work or Uni or meet with some friends. Rebel (a berry purple colour) I mostly like to use when I go out in the evening, but sometimes I like to use both together, Rebel in the corners of my mouth and on the rest Pink Lemonade(postet a picture on my Instagram). Both colours have a nice pigmentation; they are not completely opaque but have a colour payoff. If you don’t eat they stay on your lips for about 3-4 hours, which I find really nice. What I don’t like is that they are quite thick in consistency and a little sticky on the lips. But you don’t have to apply tons of the product so it works out great for me ;)





The Oil Control Lotion is a white watery lotion. I can’t say much about it because since I have this product it was so hot here in Germany that I sweated most of my foundation or concealer or whatever I had on was gone before I could start getting oily. So we will have to wait till it cooled down a bit, but for me that can wait a little longer, because I enjoy the hot weather. But I can say that you don’t need a lot of product and it is easy apply and spread. Also it moisturizes the skin a little and feels comfortable on the skin.


So with that I’m done with my little review one of the last things I’m going to write down will be the prices from the products I’ve bought. I hope you all have a great Sunday and if you watch the world championship in Brazil I hope you have a lot of fun ;)

MAC Maleficent LE



Hey Guys,

so on Monday I bought three pieces of the Maleficent LE. Maleficent is a new movie created by Disney. Maleficent is the villain of Sleeping Beauty and in the movie her story is told.

 
In collaboration several products have been released:

-          Maleficent Eye Shadow x4
-          Maleficent Penultimate Eye Liner
-          Maleficent Eye Brows
-          Maleficent 30 Lash
-          Maleficent 36 Lash
-          Maleficent Pro Longwear Lipglass
-          Maleficent Pro Longwear Lip Pencil
-          Maleficent Lipstick
-          Maleficent Beauty Powder
-          Maleficent Sculpting Powder
-          Maleficent Nail Lacquer


From all these products I bought the Eye Shadow Quad, the Pro Longwear Lipglass and the Beauty Powder. Since I only have them for four days now I can’t say that much about them but I want to give you a quick review ;)

First of all the Eye Shadow Quad. The four colours are Goldmine, Ground Brown, Concrete and Carbon. All colours are matt and cool toned, beside Goldmine which is a shimmery colour. They are all very pigmented and easy to apply and blend. They are all rather dark so I find them often more suitable for an evening or night out, like you see on the picture.



Next up is the Pro Longwear Lipglass in Anthurium which is a beautiful opaque crimson. It gives a beautiful glossy and shiny finish. I haven’t worn it over a longer period of time so I can’t say anything about its duration. I have to say what I didn’t like about the Lipglass is that I’ve had problems with applying the product evenly when you look a little closer and also it feels a little sticky. But I still love the colour!


 Last but not least the Beauty Powder in Natural. It has peachy/pink colour and has a light shimmer. It has a powdery/buttery texture and is easy to apply and has a sheer finish. It’s great to use as a setting powder or even for some really light highlighting, it’s a really nice powder;)






As conclusion I would say the Eye Shadow coloures are nice basic coloures and the packaging is awesome. The Lipglass has a beautiful colour but I will have to see about how I like wearing it and how long it will last. The powder is great and I really love using it.


I hope this little review will be helpful ;)



Have a great day everyone

Pro Longwear Concealer

Hey Make Up Lovers,

today I I want to tell you about my new concealer, it's the Pro Longwear Concealer by MAC in NC15.
The concealer is in a small bottle with a pump, which I like because it's clean and rather hygienic. When you pump once you get a drop of product which is more than enough. Sometimes I would like less product, but it's pretty hard to dose.




Okay so I wear this concealer mostly underneath my eye and when I have a little left I put it on rednes or other spots that need covering. It has a really good coverage, doesn't crease on me (like under my eyes) and NC15 is light even on my skin, so I also use the concealer as highlight under my eye area. It's not too light so it looks really natural, which I think is great. You also get a lot of use out of a little product!

So as conclusion I have to say it's one of my favourite products at the moment, and chances are high that I'm going to repurchase it :)


I hope this help you
