Latest cosmetics Trends

Every day you wake up and start the same routine and the ending goal is to be attractive - maybe more attractive than yesterday. Maybe you put on some mascara; maybe some gloss and some blush and look exactly the same as you do daily. Every now and then, it’s time for a cosmetics revamp to keep your look fresh and modern. This season makeup is bold and dramatic. Here’s our tried and tested picks to add some critically sexy colors to your look

Wet/Dry Eyeshadow:

Try Bourjois wet and dry eye shadows. Watch what a little water will do for that nock ‘em-dead look.

Glitter Eyeshadow:

Try some powder eye shadows from Manic Panic. These richly pleasing long-wearing eye shadows are packed with pigment and micro glitter. Buy single colors or paint box palettes.

Coloured Eyelash Mascara:

Be daring and try some Stargazer Mascara. A range of colors are available. Colors like turquoise, violet, red, white, blue, and pink. If you just want a hint of color on the lashes, apply it just on the tips.

3D Mascara:

Have you seen the latest mascara from Revlon? It’s called 3D Extreme and will give your lashes extreme fullness. If drama is what you want, you’ll get it-as well as curvier, visibly longer lashes. It doesn’t cake or flake and comes in waterproof too.

Mood Swing Lip Gloss:

This ought to change your mood. Too Faced carries a ‘mood swing’ lip-gloss with a secret blend of oils and extracts help keep your lips smooth & sinuous, revived, and protected from the sun. I’m sure you remember those ‘mood rings’ of the 90s that always stayed the same murky color but don’t bother- your lips will look anything but gloomy.

Sooth and Shine Lipstick:

Face atelier’s lipsticks feel and look so good. They will sooth your lips and make them shine. They contain antioxidants, essential oils, and provide sun shield.

MAC Cleanse Off Oil

n industry-strength oil-based makeup remover that's gentle on the skin. Botanically formulated with oils of olive fruit, evening primrose and jojoba seed and absolutely 100 percent mineral-oil free. Massages onto the skin to loosen all makeup, including waterproof mascara. Emulsifies into a lotion-type liquid with water: rinses off easily, no tissues required - and no residue! Protects with vitamin E. Skin softening and conditioning. Good for all skin types.

150 ml / 5 fl oz

US $22.00

I LOVE this makeup remover! I've taken a complete break from my usual makeup remover cloths and have been using this product religiously. This Cleanse Off Oil performs fantastically, gently melting all traces of makeup, leaving clean, soft and supple skin. I couldn't be any happier..HG material right here!

How I use it:

First, I smooth one complete pump* of the cleansing oil over my "dry" face and begin massaging in circular motions. Almost instantly, the makeup begins to break down and dissolve. Next, I wet my hands with warm water, and continue to massage my face to emulsify the oil. This step turns the oil into a white lotion like consistency. After, I rinse my entire face with warm water, and carefully repeat the process for each eye. Lastly, though it is not necessary, I follow up with my regular skincare cleanser and skincare routine.

*You may use more or less cleanse off oil depending on how heavy your initial makeup application is.

Unlike most other makeup removers, MAC Cleanse Off Oil does not contain mineral oil; a suspected carcinogen and premature ager -yuck-. I love the lightness of this formula and citrus like scent; it reminds me of oranges. :) A great plus is the lock pump; it keeps the product sanitary and spill proof. I was very pleased to find that there was virtually no stinging and/or eye irritation. WIN! Though, as with most oil based removers, when used around the eye area it may temporarily cloud your vision. A few passes with warm water should clear them once again.

Would I repurchase? Definitely!!

When this Cleanse Off Oil container is empty, be sure save it as it qualifies for the BACK2MAC program.

MAKE UP FOR EVER

MAKE UP FOR EVER creates wonderful performing products that always seem to win me over. Thus far, this is my absolute favorite eye makeup remover! You can read about my favorite face makeup remover here. When nothing seems to be getting the job done, rest assured, I can always count on this baby. The formula is a gel, cream like consistency, formulated without mineral oil -WIN- and sky blue, so you can see when you're just about out. The scent is very clean. As you may know, I always prefer to have a lock pump, to avoid spillage and keep everything sanitary, as this product has, but the real magic is what's inside and how quickly and gently it melts all traces of waterproof makeup. Because so little is needed to get the job done, I don't mind the price tag as much; as one bottle has lasted me a good 3-4 months or longer.
