Got to have a little play last week with the new products that launched today! DYING over all of them!
Nars Matte Skin Tint is absolutely beautiful! The coverage is in between their tinted moisturiser and Sheer Glow foundation, kind of a mousse texture and matte finish but not super matte like the ADLW foundation! It's got antioxidants formulated into it as well which help reduce the signs of ageing and limit the production of free radicals in the skin. I really love this product, it's not overly matte like the ADLW foundation from Nars can sometimes be. I'd honestly say it's more on the satin side. The new blush in 'impassioned' is beautiful, such a great matte blush! And the new dual intensity eyeshadows in 'kari' and 'tarvos' are my favourites! There is also an new eyeshadow duo 'Hammamet' which I NEED to get my hands on!
The Too Faced Bon Bon Chocolate Bar palette that I've waited so long to get my hands on! The quality is just the same as all Too Faced products, the shadows are buttery, pigmented and of course chocolate scented! I'm so obsessed with this palette and every. single. shade. Melted Chocolates and new lip creme's! The melted ones are the same as the original ones except they smell like chocolate and the new lip creme colours are super different to the more nude shades they have at the moment- my FAVE is unicorn tears! It's super different but it makes a great topper for other lipsticks but also amazing on its own! Also the new 'Mr. Right' brush. It is 'teddy bear hair' so completely cruelty free but still silky soft and you can use it for: blush, bronzer/contour and powder!
Hourglass Strobing powders & sponge! These totally lived up to the hype in my opinion! These are the same formula as the middle shade (incandescent light) in the ambient powder palette! So if you love the middle shade and was a full size you can get it now cos the top left one is incandescent light! Super smooth powders that you can use wet, for a wet, more intense highlight, or dry, for a natural glow:) the sponge you can use wet or dry too, and on one side there is a felt part which is for blended the product out!
And lastly new Stila products!! Aqua Glow foundation and concealer are really beautiful products with such a nice dewy finish! Medium-Full coverage, hydrating and really good for a more a mature skin! They have hyaluronic acid in them which means they really hydrate the skin. I wouldn't recommend this for an oily skin because it is really dewy! Electrolytes in the product also brighten the skin. I'd really only recommend this for someone with a dryer skin, cos it is really quite dewy and on me (who's on the oily side it just looked like a greasy mess) though the coverage and feel of the foundation was lovely! They also brought out a sponge that's the same as the one they have now just purple! And if you guys loved or missed out on the Stila Christmas lip sets with the Stay All Day Liquid Lipsticks and couldn't get them, your prayers have been answered cos they are now permanent and full size!!
