I love this type of makeup cleaning as I 1. find it so boring to wash off the makeup that I like to do it in front of the TV or computer. 2. Has sensitive skin that feels dry and tight if I wash with water for a long time, so even if I wash with a regular cleanser and water, it goes faster if I have removed that makeup before. 3. Is incredibly scared of the dark and for that reason does not like to have my face under water for too long when you have to close your eyes, I almost always imagine that someone is behind me and can get sick scared and adrenaline-kicked even if a hair loop happens to move a little in the tassel or similar haha.
But, even after using Neutrogena's Facial Cleansing Wipes, I say no, no, no! I really can not recommend these! They are there to clean the skin from dirt, impurities and makeup, and prevent pimples without drying out the skin.
They certainly smell good but it feels more like floor cleaner, a very strong scent that feels very "chemical" or what to say.
The napkins are not for eye makeup but only for the face, so what's the point? The majority of everyone who wears makeup also uses mascara (at least).
They are so strong! Only the fumes from the napkins make the eyes sting, and the feeling on the skin is that it is actually there to wash away difficult stains on furniture or the like.
The only positive is yes, they are very effective at cleaning. The make-up disappears after type one stroke. But I have only tested these once, and there will be no more I can say :)
I have entered a colorful period now I feel, every time I think about what I want to use for the type of products I think about color, so fun :)
Today's make-up is done with a perfect eyeshadow palette if you, like me, love color! And that is Make Up Store 12 Shades Of Color Palette which I got in the goodie bag at their last show. 12 eye shadows completely to my taste ♥
Hope you like the look!
The highlighted colors are the eyeshadows I have used for this makeup.
Dark turquoise eye shadow at the end of the eyelid
Fade the edges
Dark blue eye shadow at the end of the lower lash line and outwards / downwards in the outer corner of the eye
Turquoise eye shadow in the middle of the lower lash line
Lime green eye shadow at the bottom of the lower lash line
White eye shadow in the corner of the eye, slightly below the lime green shade, and as two lines in the outer corner of the eye, Paese cashmere eyeshadow (601)
Hope you had a great weekend, I have! A perfect mix of work and relaxing :)
Last week I published a make-up made with IsaDora's news that I got a press release on. I also filmed the look at the same time, a bit "first impression" but without opinions because it is a fast-paced make-up and a film in just 1 minute.
In this make-up, I tested the goodies I got home in the new collections "Cover Up Foundation & Concealer" which came out in store week 41. And the look "Black & White - Go Monochrome" which came out in store week 40.
And in this post, I was going to publish the film, but also give some first impression opinions about the products! I have only tested everything once, so if you want a more detailed review of any of the products, shout out :)
IsaDora has more autumn news this year, this is just one of all press releases. You do not have time to blog about the first before the next news comes haha. But it's a fun problem! :)
IsaDora Eye Color Bar in the new shade 02 Smokey Eyes (Limited Edition), so nice colors! In the eye makeup in the film, I have used the burgundy color the most (4th color from the right) and think it became more brown when you toned it out, which was a bit sad. But other than that, I am incredibly happy with the palette, really nice colors :)
Costs SEK 249
Here you see a swatch on the eye shadows.
IsaDora Cover Up Foundation & Concealer - a liquid foundation / concealer in a practical pump tube. 179: -
Excerpt:
Combined foundation and concealer. Covers irregularities such as fine lines, uneven skin tone, rashes and dull skin for a natural result. Full coverage with a pleasant feeling on the skin. A creamy soft and elastic texture that combines perfectly with the skin for a "second skin feel". Sits for a long time. Moisturizing and energizing. Makes the skin firmer and has a firming effect. Silky smooth finish. Suitable for all skin types
My first impression - After the first use, I got the urge to put this to the test a little extra, and will compile a more detailed review! But the first impression is that it is incredibly thick, easy to apply and looks good on the skin. I think it got a little cakey around the nose but it may be because I have to sit quite far from the mirror when I film and was maybe not so careful there. So no wow-feeling right away but I'll give it another chance!
IsaDora Matt Fixing Blotting Paper - a transparent powder that fixes foundation, absorbs oil, blurs irregularities in the skin for blurring effect and contains hyaluronic acid which raises the moisture level in the skin. I thought this would be a perfect powder for me with oily skin, just the name "blotting powder" makes me melt a bit haha, but it was a bit too "hard" pressed I think. I need quite a lot of powder on my face to get a good effect but it almost felt like you didn't get anything on the brush. Costs SEK 129
IsaDora Powder Brush - No brush for me, it is soft and smooth but does not feel fluffy enough to get up a lot of powder, especially not with blotting powder which is quite hard pressed. Costs SEK 129
IsaDora Twist-Up Matt Lips in the new shade Blackout. Super nice and comfortable on the lips! It took a little longer than usual before it became dull on the lip though and a little hard to get even in color, but I still like it :) 129: -
IsaDora Kohl Kajal - cone-shaped eyeliner with soft texture and easy application. I'm not really for products like this in general, when you have used up the top, it is very difficult to apply instead. In addition, the formula is creamy for quite some time, which makes it easy to smear. So these were very nice for the make-up I did with them (seen in the film) but for a sharp white and black eyeliner I am skeptical that it will be good actually. But have not tried to do a sharp look with them. It costs 89: -.
The Monochrome collection also includes two new lipsticks, three nail polishes and with the purchase of 2 products, you get a stylish black and white toiletry bag.
I have also filmed this look, and I think the film was good (and by good I mean better than everyone I have published before haha) so it feels fun!
I have "practiced" filming / editing without talking in the movies at first, to avoid having an extra thing to think about, but in this movie I also talk and tell what products I use and how I apply them :)
Hopefully I will have time to get the film finished during the weekend, but for now I offer the make-up in pictures! Namely, despite filming, I have photographed step by step as well (will cut it out of the film) so you who prefer images get a tutorial in image format and you who prefer films get a tutorial in film format.
And I personally prefer the mix, because there are certain details that come out more clearly in the picture but which you still want to see how you do in a movie :)
Brown eyeshadow at the end of the eyelid and along the globe line, Paese Opal (Caffe Latte)
Fade the edges and apply a light eye shadow in the middle of the eyelid, Paese Opal (Caffe Latte) *
Eyeliner with wing, Paese Liquid Eyeliner
White eye shadow in the corner of the eye, under the eyeliner and in the middle of the eyelid, Paese Kashmir (601)
The brushes I have used are from Nanshy and it is Tapered crease, pencil and blend that I have used. I have also used Eco minerals Duo Brush to the white under the eyeliner to get it sharp but still soft :) I used the side that is not skewed. You will see in the movie in a few days!
