Review/Swatches Makeup Revolution London "Amazing Lipsticks"

Hi my beauties welcome back!

Today I'm reviewing the Amazing lipsticks from the brand Makeup Revolution. So I already know that the lipsticks always get mixed reviews Especially from the people who buy 1 or 2 shades but today I'm going to show you 4 different shades and let me tell you that all of them are different from each other, they have different formula or different staying power which I will be breaking down today for you guys and I will be telling you the qualities or the things I didn't liked Shade by Shade

Shades we will discuss

~ Nude
~ Sweetheart
~ Dream
~ Atomic Ruby




Let's discuss

Nude
This one is the rich matte formula in all of them to be honest it is a basic straight up nude with no tough to explain undertones lol but you have to apply 2 to 3 layers to show up but at the same time it doesn't washes me out this lasts for about 2 hours but I basically use it for mixing or lightening any dark color of my other lipstick which I really like I will give it 4/5 stars

Sweetheart
A perfect pretty BUBBLEGUM pink which would look super pretty on every skin tone possible but it was pigmented enough I mean even slightly tinted lip balms are more pigmented then this But still I will highly recommend it if you at least want to apply 15 layers of lipstick to show just a little bit of color I seriously can do a 100 layers of lipstick challenge easily I will give this 1/5 stars seriously. I wanted to say one thing more here that I have seen most of the people complaining about their pink shades in the range (I layered the color 15 times to makes it show up in the swatch above)

Dream
Now this lipstick is beautiful light pigmented medium red with orange and pink undertones It is on the matte side it stays but for 4 hours but you need to layer this stuff up but after some hours this color do bleed. I will give this 3.5/5 star

Atomic Ruby
Now this one is my favorite of all because you seriously need one swipe of this and you are good to go Now the color red with pink undertones it is a satiny finish but does not bleed I really like this red. I will give this one 5/5

                          Shades from left to right Nude, Sweetheart, Dream and Atomic Ruby

FINAL REVIEW

Overall I would say these are the lipsticks with the luck I mean one is matte other is satiny and they all are in one range there is no specification here by the brand May be It just started at the time when these lipsticks got launched and the maker didn't have the idea of this brand being this huge I am very  disappointed with the shade sweetheart but other then that I am quite Impressed with others

Finally It retails for 225 each
I got mine form here
I will rate it as 3.5/5 stars

Makeup revolution London Ultra Blush Palette in "Sugar and Spice"

Hi my lovelies and welcome back to my blog

So before jumping in to blog I would like to mention a thing that today I will be reviewing a thing which I haven't reviewed since I have started. I mean I did review lipsticks, foundation, primer and so on but I will be reviewing a Blush Palette and I haven't reviewed any blusher in general and to be honest I'm a really big fan of blushers in general plus I wanted to mention 1 more thing is that I know I did posted some blogs in October but I didn't get the chance to post any reviews this month so it in my head seems like that I haven't posted reviews in ages because I thoroughly enjoy them. Now enough of rambling and We should just Get started


Packaging It Comes in a sleek black openable box with 8 blushers with a big mirror inside and on the front the brand name is written with a Rose Gold printing which any thing in rose gold is super cute I really like a packaging overall but there are some Cons to it which are the packaging can get dirty very easily like i would say you can have your finger prints on the packaging and plus the BIGGEST downer in my books is that there are no individual names of the blushers in here which I really am not a fan of



The Product Itself   Now let's talk about the blushers so I'm going to first give you guys an overall reaction which I come up with and then will individually discuss all the color So bear with me

First things first I would like to tell you guys that the blushers in here are super pigmented and the selection of colors is just so on point that you will not need any other blush color if you are travelling with it plus the size of the palette is pretty slim or I would say that the size will not bother you it can easily fit in any makeup bag and the size of each blusher pan is also very nice its perfect in the middle of big and small sized blushers but there is one thing which is nice but you have to be aware of is that all of them are highly pigmented that you need to be careful with the application.

What I like to do is just dip my brush once into the palette then tap of the access and apply it to my cheeks. All of them swatched beautifully except 1 shade which I will tell you guys afterwards and plus you can mix any shades together to get your desired shade

As far as the highlighter shade are concerned I don't know what they have put in there formula that you can just lightly touch the highlighters and you can do a whole swatch with them

Blush colors Individually So as these do not have any names I will call them by the numbers from Left to Right



Top Row

Shade #1: 
It is just a nude blush with the hint of mauve

Shade #2: 
A perfect bronze shade with the perfect warm undertone but as I was telling you above this shade is not super chalky I would say but it is chalky plus I literally had to rub my finger super hard back and forth just to make the swatch show up

Shade #3: 
A cool tone pink with a hint of peach which makes it easy to pull off

Shade #4 (the highlight); 
A highlight shade with lilac undertones I basically don't use this as a highlighter but I instead use it as a blusher topper or a base of my blush to make my blush glowy and healthy



Bottom Row

Shade #5
Deep dark pink with a hint of brown in it

Shade #6
A barbie doll pink but slightly a more wearable version

Shade #7
Matte wearable peachy shade which is super wearable in spring/summer

Shade #8
Shimmery dark pink with a beautiful sheen to it and I feel you can wear this color when you want to look healthy and pretty at the same time



And If you guys are wondering what are my favorite shades in the palette then I will say Shade #1 individually and even mixed with shade #3 and shade #8 on its on

Overall I highly recommend this palette and yes it is worth it even its super affordable in my opinion and who will leave highly pigmented beautiful shades just for 1 not so pigmented shade?

I will give it 4/5 stars
I got mine from daraz.pk
It was priced: 1250 PKR

It was great fun reviewing it for you guys or maybe I helped anyone with the decision whether to buy this palette or not. Please feel free to leave any Comment or Requests down below or catch me on Instagram

Until Next Time:
STAY BEAUTIFUL!!!

My go to nail options for the Fall/Winter

Hi everyone welcome back and I hope you guys are all well

As you guys know that I haven't posted anything this week that is just because my WiFi was not working but now I'm posting finally
So today I'm going to share my 4 go to fall/winter nail color/ the colors I mostly reach in winters, So let's get into it and some tips and tricks regarding nail polishes



Number 1 Genny "315"
This is a darker red color kind of an Ox red which is super fall appropriate because it just gives an amazing fall vibe instead of the bright red color (this polish is a little bit dry so in the picture its not looking that pretty)

Number 2 Essence "52 Amazed by you"
So it's a darker mauvy purple which is a definite must have for the fall because as you guys know mauve and burgundy colors are so on trend every fall and because this polish is a gel formula it is super easy to apply


Number 3 Golden Rose "137" We all know how much everyone loves a black nail polish but this one is not just an ordinary black but It"s a black with some finely milled grey silver glitter in it which just gives it super pretty affect and to be honest this is my favorite color in all of the colors I'm mentioning and it's coming from a girl who doesn't like to wear black color


Number 4 Maybelline color show "150 Mauve kiss"
Just as the name suggest it is a very pretty mauve color but it is a muted mauve mixed with some brown tones and it is perfect for those days when you don't really want dark nails or don't feel like going full glam with the nails this is the PERFECT color



Tips and tricks
Now on to some tips and tricks on how to apply the polish:-

1~ First thing thing is when you will be opening your nail polish/color you need to make sure that there is no Fan or AC on this will make sure that your nail polish bottle will last you longer and doesn't dry out plus it will also make the application process smooth

2~ Instead of applying your color placing your nails on the opposite side of your face you need to place your nails inwards to your face if I make any sense LOL The other way I can tell you guys is the way i bend my fingers in all the pictures do that it will make it super easy

3~ try to give your nails some time like use a buffer before applying the nail polish it will look super pretty

4~ If you want a perfect smooth nail color you want to make sure that you apply at least 2 coats but after applying 1 THIN coat try to wait for about 5 minutes to make it completely dry then apply the other coat this will help to apply smoothly and with a more opaque color rather then applying the 2nd coat before the first coat is dry and mess up the whole nail

5~ For long lasting results which will last you a week try to apply a top coat after the 2 layers

So that's it for today's blog I hope you guys enjoyed as much as I did writing it for you guys

Now my nails need some rest because they are dying after facing so many nail colors just in 1 day

Until Next time

STAY GORGEOUS!!!

Fall/winter lipsticks option (mauve, berry and plum) inspired

Hi beautiful ladies welcome back to my channel

So if you guys are following me on Instagram then you will already know that this blog is coming. As we all know fall is coming and its all about that dark lip trend not only the reds but also some intense mauves and plums which I enjoy a lot so I have decided to show you guys some options which you can totally rock starting from the lip liner to the liquid lipsticks in today's post I'm trying to cover each and every lip category for you guys so I hope you will find at least 1 for yourself


Let's get started

Lip liners

Essence long lasting lip liner (10 berry on my mind)


It is a very wearable color for the people who In case don't like to go full on glam but still wants something to make their lips fall appropriate this lip liner is perfect for them. This color has a mauve undertone with more pink to it

Femina Long lasting lip liner (F-411 Cherry Red)

With this lip liner I will completely disagree with the name because this one has a perfect blend of maroon and plum which is so perfect for fall. you can flaunt this lip liner all on it's own or else you can wear it underneath or on top of a lipstick as well. it is so perfect yet so affordable. Now I myself have wore this lip liner when I wanted to do DEEPIKA PADUKONE 2014 Iifa inspired look for a function in my family with 2 other lipsticks on top

Essence Lip liner (Satin Mauve) 


So I know this liner has been discontinued by Essence but still I got my hands on it in September after searching so much and If you guys can still buy it then I'll definitely say that It is worth buying, So as the the name suggest satin mauve yeah it is. This is perfect for those who want hint of nude with mauve as their everyday lip color

LIP BALM

Maybelline Baby Lips (Pink Shock)


I wanted to include a lip balm in the options for those of you who are just starting makeup or for those who don't like the dark lip trend or going out full glam, The maybelline baby lips is a perfect option for you Now I know it is pink but still it has a fun purple element going on. so it has 2 benefits the lip protection + lip color

Lipsticks in a pencil form

Rivaj UK lipstick pencil (024 Brown sugar)

This color is very muted tone of mauve. it is like hidden mauve in a very cool tone brown which makes it wearable but a little bit glam at the same time

Essence Glossy stick (Brilliant burgundy)

So this shade is a glossy finish for those who don't or can't wear matte lipsticks in general this stuff has plum undertones which makes it super fall appropriate

Lipsticks in bullet form
Clinique lipstick (A Different Grape)

Now this lipstick is super creamy/easy to apply and the color is very wearable for fall time during some simple outdoor lunches this will look perfect. It is a perfect blend of brown and plum in one which is a rare shade

Rimmel moisture RENEW lipstick (380 Dark Night Waterl-oops)

As you guys can see the Berry tone lipstick is perfect when you want to go a little bit xtra glam without having to worry about the dryness because this is super moisturizing and it does go on super smoothly just in 1 swipe

Essence lipstick (Barely there)

This lipstick is a perfect dark nude with the mauve under tone so this will be perfect on the normal days or for those people who doesn't like the dark lip

Flormar Lipstick (525)

This lipstick for me discribes the perfect plum color which is super moisturizing non drying and literally this can stay put for 8 hours at least which for a moisturizing lipstick is insane

Lip Gloss

Essence XXXL Long lasting lip gloss (Berry cream 10)

This is a lip gloss with a velvet matte finish for those who don't like to wear liquid lipstick but still want a matte affect. It doesn't dry down so you can still feel the lip cream instead of feeling the dry lips

Liquid Lipsticks

Beauty Uk Lip MATTER (07 Mauve your body)

As the name says mauve I myself feel like it is the best pure mauve color here and it dries down complete matte plus doesn't make your lips dry



Color pop (lumeire 2)

Now i will be honest with you guys that I was planning to do this whole fall lipstick inspiration from a month but actually was waiting for this color, Now this color is a mixture of plum and mauve plus so much of cool tone but still it is very drying 


So now that's pretty much it. I hope you guys found it helpful because honestly this was too tough
Comment down below and tell me which one is your type and

Until Next time
STAY HAPPY AND FALL READY!!!

My wishlist/Products I want in my life

Hi everyone  welcome to my blog, l really hope you guys are doing well

So in today's blog I will be talking about my wishlist and why I still didn't get my hands on these things, So let's get started!

THE BODY SHOP shade adjusting drops (darkening)

Now you guys must be wondering that why I need those drops I mean I can instead go and purchase my shade in foundation but that'sbasically what I always do
I don't want those drops to make my foundation dark but actually I want to contour with those drops because they are super cool tone and which will be good to contour but the thing with them is so shocking because they were actually launched in Pakistan but they only came once in stock and since then I went to so many body shop outlets for this but they never have it in stock


Millani baked blush (luminoso)


My next item has to be this blush. Now the case with this blush is that even if some pages posting pics that they have this blush in stock whenever I contact them It's always sold out I know its my bad luck but still I will keep on trying


Makeup REVOLUTION London
 "Light and Shade  palette"


So this palette was launched in August this year which is just a while ago that's why obviously it will take a while to come in Pakistan and I saw Kaushal Beauty video of half face high end and half face drugstore video in which she compared it to Kat Von D Shade and Light palette since then I want my hands on this palette badly


Morphe 35O palette
Now as you guys can see it's a neutrals dream come true palette and I love my neutrals and that's why I want this thing in my life. If I get an option to choose any 1 thing in my wishlist I will for sure choose this. now with this I will be hopefully getting it soon because in the last week of October there will be an exhibition by Makeup 4 U in Lahore and if I don't have any family events happening in other cities I will be surely going


Ofra liquid lipsticks

Now I really really badly wanted to try Ofra liquid lipsticks in general because people rave about the formula, So hopefully as I said that will be going to the exibition and will buy this too


Brands I want to try in general

So I use to be a girl who thinks that the makeup made in Pakistan will react if I try anything so use to stay away from it but now as I have tried some brands so I wanted to try more

COLOR STUDIO

Wanted to try color studio I just have used a kajal from this brand and it  was very good and color studio is a very popular Brand in Pakistan so I'm really looking forward to it


Musarat Misbah Cosmetics
As we all know that unlike the other this Brand also created a buzz So I really want to try it and the fact that they claim to be 100% halal is obviously "Cherry on the Cake"


Atiqa Odho cosmetics

Straight up I wanted to try it just because I have seen the pictures of her contour powders and I really want them in my life because you guys don't know but I'm a contour girl by heart

DISCLAIMER: ALL THE PICTURES ARE TAKEN BY GOOGLE

After all the wishlist I'm sharing hear I really wanted to add a thing here is that you guys probably know it now that I love to Splurge on makeup but nowadays I'm trying to control it just because I have so much stuff which I bought this year or before which I even haven't used once and I want to use those things first so then I can easily buy other things

So that pretty much it for today's blog I hope you liked my wishlist

Until next time
STAY POSITIVE!!!

Monthly favorites "September"

Hi beautiful ladies Welcome back to my blog

So we are officially in the month of October which means it's time to talk about some monthly favorites. Now I didn't actually  posted any monthly favorites in the past but now I have decided I will try and do these every single month because they are so fun to watch/read so I have decided I'll also be taking part in them
Let's get started



  L'oreal Paris Triple active Fresh Hydra Gel

Girl if you have Dry and sensitive skin at the same time then this is your day time best now and it is a hydra gel which is a big bonus in my books. Now I have normal to dry skin in summer but in winters it's super drying so I love their normal skin one but I was like let's try the dry one and let me tell you this is amazing




MAYBELLINE baby lips Color

This is something I'm constantly using from 2 months now in the day time and I have gone through 1 already It has a slight fragrance which I don't mind at all and it also have SPF 20 which is an essential for the time plus it stays on for about 4 to 5 hours which is awesome . The fact that I love it so much is that this stuff is my perfect MLBB color



MAKEUP REVOLUTION LONDON "Ultra Strobe Cream"

So I was waiting for this stuff eagerly to come in Pakistan so I finally got it in mid of June and since then this stuff is the PARTNER IN GLOW for me. It gives you such a beautiful glow or a glow within
Now I first apply my primer then the strobe cream and then my foundation and it look so effortless and flawless at the same time




ESSENCE 2 in 1 eyeshadow and eyeliner

So ever since I got this eye shadow stick I'm pretty much using this color be itself or with other colors this is a must for me and I believe If you guys are following me for a while now you would have known my bronze obsession. I did post a review on it which you can check here



BEAUTY UK Matte bronzer 02 Dark

Now I don't use this as a bronzer because it has the perfect cool tone for my skin as a contour if you have a darker complexion then me I'm sure it will look beautiful as a bronzer shade so I contour with it and girl I'm obsessed  it's not cakey or powdery but it's super bendable plus build able and very long lasting at the same time



J. Khumar perfume

This is my 2nd bottle and I love it so much that I cannot go over it. Now if you have heard about this perfume before then I know what you must be thinking that she is a girl then why she use a men's fragrance it's actually because I prefer musky perfumes more then the fruity sweet ones but this is not over the top musky I don't know why but this stuff always remind me of spring I know it's not flowery or anything but this is at the same time so refreshing And another thing is that it is super long lasting


SONGS
A random favorite I want to throw here are some songs. You guys don't actually know how hardcore fan I'm of SELENA GOMEZ and her songs but this in particular  I was listening so much to "The heart wants what it want" and "Same Old Love" and I was loving Buleya by Ae dil hai mushkil


                                                    (Picture by Google)
Last but not the least

Earrings

Now I got these earrings from a shop in Sahiwal. They are super light weight and easy to wear and at the same time stylish and classy at the same time I'm using it for even glam looks and they pair up with everything gorgeously



So that pretty much it I hope find it helpful I seriously really enjoy writing about all my favorites and now I will see you guys in my next blog and If you want a full in depth review on any of these things don't forget to comment down below or to ask me on Instagram

Till then
STAY BEAUTIFUL!!!
