Kylie Cosmetics Matte Liquid Eyeshadow

I recently received Kylie Cosmetics Matte liquid Eyeshadow complimentary of Influenster and Kylie Cosmetics. I recieved the shade, 2 Steps Ahead. This shade is a pretty rich brown with a subtle purple tint. The matte liquid eyeshadow comes in five shades.

When I tested the product, I dabbed a small amount onto a tray and took an eyeshadow brush and blended it out onto my eyelids. It was very easy to blend. The product has lots of pigment so its very buildable. A little goes a long way. It did not crease as promised and created a blurred matte look.

The 5 shades are all beautiful, but I hope more options are eventually released. The matte liquid eyeshadow does come at a reasonable pricepoint. This is definitely a product worth trying.

No7 Matte Blush

No7, which is know for its skincare also has makeup. I was kindly gifted the matte blush in the color peaches from No7 and Bzzagent. I was excited to try the matte blush because I have never tried their makeup.

The blush is enriched with vitamin E to condition your skin throughout wear. It is a powder not cream blush. The blush is highly pigmented so you only need a small amount.

The peach is a beautiful pinkish peach. The packaging is basic, but right off the bat you can see the beautiful color. Apply the blush in small circular motions. You can always build upon the color.

Compared to other drugstore brands this blush ranks highly. It is a good option to have in rotation. Do you use drugstore brand or prestige cosmetics? Maybe a mixture of both? Let me know in the comments along with some of your favorite brands.

Nars Blush

Many have come to know and love this brand. I first fell in love with this brand when I tried their cult classic blush, orgasm. This glittery pink blush became a rotation in my makeup arsenal. One day I made my usual trip to Ulta to get another Nars blush in orgasm, and to my horror, they were not in stock that day. I decided to try, Nars deepthroat blush.

Quickly, I fell in love with this shade. It is a warm coral with a soft golden shimmer. The blush is a tad darker than orgasm. If you love shimmer, but want a more subtle shimmer then, this shade is for you.

Nars blushes are very buildable colors and go on very lightweight. You can wear the shade more subtly or amp it up for a warmer look. The blush will last all day.

This blush is priced about middle range, for prestige cosmetics. It is worth the investment because of the quality and longevity. I wear my Nars blush everyday and they last me close to six months. Nars blush lives up to the hype.
