If you enjoy using loose powder eyeshadows, you would be no stranger to Make Up For Ever Star Powders. I was introduced to these gems by Jojoba the MUFE Star Powder queen. I swear she knows every colour ever made at the tip of her fingers! Useful for me when I am at a loss as to what I should get 😉
Anyway, Make Up For Ever Star Powder fall into the category of loose powder eyeshadows. They come in little tubs with a sifter and a clear cover so you know what the colour is. It is useful, but depending on how you store it, you risk spillage. I store mine on the side – there are too many to stack, so the powder does collect and spill if I’m not careful. So, what I do is tap them on the cover to settle the powder before opening the cover. This way I don’t spill any or spill little.Continue Reading

I have a phobia of cream blushes.
There I’ve said it. I first tried cream blushes with Becca Turkish Rose. It was gorgeous but I could never get the hang of blending and applying it naturally. So, much as I’m tempted by all the lovely pictures and uses of Benefit Cosmetic’s Benetint and Posietint (See Kahani, Tine and Geekchic) I can’t see myself getting or using them as I’m such a klutz with cream/liquid blushes.
Enter Stila Convertible Color Dual Cheek and Lip. A cream cheek and lip product. It acts as a cream blush or as a lip colour. Personally I think it works better as a cheek color and I’ll explain why below.
The packaging is pretty as are all Stila products. The case is sturdy and there is a largish mirror inside the top cover. The compact is quite slim which makes it easy to tote around if you like to touch up. The cream colour itself is large and the colour of the case represents the colour of the product which makes it easy to find in your drawer.
The colour I have is Lillium which is a peachy toned colour with slight brownish undertones and no shimmer.Continue Reading

I was just at The Body Shop yesterday picking up a replacement bottle of Vitamin C Skin Boost when my eyes fell on a new Body Shop makeup collection. I’ll be the first to admit that The Body Shop makeup doesn’t excite me, but for some reason my eyes were drawn to this one.
