Its a pretty Fuchia shade. It suits all skin tone and brighten up your look.
Its such a happy color. I get a mood lift whenever I wear it.

FOTD : Pretty Purple Look using Savee Beauty eyeshadows

hey beauties... If you follow my previous posts, I have mentioned that my hubby has got me some eyeshadows from Savee Beauty. See post here. Ever since I got the shadows I was dying to try them and today I am here with a Pretty Purple makeup Look using Savee Eyeshadows. From my first impression I can tell, the shades are very well pigmented, smooth and easy to blend.
So lets get started with the makeup look...




  • Prime your eye lids.
  • Now take a DARK PURPLE shadow on a crease brush and blend it on the crease.
  • Next take a LIGHTER PURPLE and apply it on the entire eye lid. Drag it till the inner half of lower lash line.
  •  Next take a CHARCOAL  shade and smoke out the outer V. Blend it well with the DARKER PURPLE shade.
  • Now for the outer half of the lower lash line go for the DARK PURPLE shadow.
  • Highlight the browbone 
  • Line the upper lash line and water line with a BLACK liner.
  •  Apply coats of mascara and your gorgeous Pretty Purple eyes are done.
  • Team it up with a PEACHY blush.
  • For lips, I am using Coloressence Premia Lipstick in Royal Wine. See review here
I hope you like this simple pretty look.

Coloressence Premia Lipstick in Royal Wine

hey beauties...Here's another swatch and review from Coloressence. Its Coloressence Premia Lipstick in Royal Wine.



PACKAGING,PRICE and AVAILABILITY
  • Coloressence Premia Lipsticks comes with a shiny silver packaging. I love the stylish packaging actually.
  • Its available at all Coloressense counters and retails at Rs 25o
SWATCH TIME




VERDICT


  • Its a Mauvy shade with a hint of Pink to it. The name of the shade is wrong coz its not a WINE shade at all.
  • I have read many posts that its drying on lips, but for me it wasn't so drying. 
  • Mild herbal scent
  • Well pigmented
  • Staying power isn't that great. Stays on for 3-4hours but wipes out as soon as you eat/ drink something.
  • Affordable
Well I will definitely love to try other shades, but first I would try other brands and then will come back to coloressence.

But this time my hubby bought me something I couldnt guess at all. He got me some beauty stuffs !!! He usually dont surprise me with beauty products. This time while strolling around KLCC he found there was some happy hour sale going on at Savee Beauty where most of the items were for rm 1 :) :)
He got me a bunch of Face masks and eyeshadows. I am always crazy for face masks. Whenever I want to relax I put on a face mask and relax.












He got me some pretty shades of eyeshadows too. These are super pigmented and beautiful.







Thanks hubby for such a colorful surprise...Love you <3 <3
