Full On MoTD ft. Colourpop Cosmetics

I am a huge fan of Colourpop. Their Super Shock eyeshadows are pigmented, blendable and affordable. The formula is unusual though and might seem odd at first because they have this cream texture that have a sort of bouncy texture. It's quite unique. Despite the cream formula, they apply and blend quite well using a synthetic brush and, unlike most cream formulas, these do not crease at all. Their Ultra Satin Lips are also so pigmented, again, affordable and have the most comfortable formula for a liquid lip. They are not tight or drying or flaky. They do transfer and yet don't leave you with that awkward white ring when your lip color rubs off. I don't know how they do it. I was amazed. The only thing I do not like about Colourpop is it is not available here in the Philippines. They do have International shipping now, a very recent development, but we all know the pains of going through customs in this country so I'm iffy about that. The good news is, Colourpop is so popular now that a lot of resellers carry them. You can get these goodies from nearby lifestyle stores like Zaril and Shopitude or you can order them online from Hotfinds Manila, The Vanity Zone, or , if you have the EQ, pre-order from my @nicolettemakeup (my suki at IG).

Makeup details to follow.

Brush Review. The MAC 221 Mini Tapered Blending Brush. It's described in the MAC website as a shadow-blending brush used for application and blending of powders. I've vacillated between getting this brush and a flat shader brush because I thought it might be redundant with my 224. It isn't. It applies shadows in a more precise and targeted manner than my 224. Simply, the track of color it leaves behind is thinner and smaller so if you want to do more detailed work, this is a must-have. This is also velvety soft. No scratchiness at all, unlike the 224. The way I use this brush, I apply my crease color, which is usually dark or medium brown, blend it out a little using a window wiping motion. After, I use my 224 to apply my transition color, usually a light brown or tan, at the top part of my crease and blend that out a little as well using the same side to side motion. I gotta say, this is one of my best brush purchases due to the uniqueness of its utility and how gosh-darn soft it is. Good news, this was a limited edition brush but is now permanent. Bad news, during my vacillating period, I've noticed that MAC stores only have 1 or 2 of this brush in stock so if this becomes more popular it might be difficult to find.

On National Lipstick Day

Image
via Instagram http://ift.tt/2aYoSDp This is me being bummed because i totally missed out on #nationallipstickday even though i have a shameful number of new lipsticks to review. Sorry. I have been exhausted and uninspired lately. I hope to do better in the following days. In the meantime, here's an #motd . Primer #niveapostshavebalm sensitive. This was discovered and populararized by the fabulous and hilarious @nikkietutorials . It's supposed to help keep your makeup stay longer and better throughout the day. Now, I'm not sure it does that. I think I'll have to do one of those half face tests to be certain. This, however, did not break me out and, considering it's one of the more affordable primers out there, it's worth checking it out.
