ALLENCHANT EYE SHADOW PRODUCT REVIEW

Allenchant mineral eye shadow is made from 100% natural mineral products. It is in a powder form and it comes in a very small plastic, transparent beneath and black cover. it has a sift to keep the products from spilling.

 I got two colour purply and corona, both colors have a metallic finish. so you get get a very reflective sheen, yet satin finish rather than a frosted appearance. the color payoff is lovely - dense,opaque color and the texture is soft to touch, buttery feel, smooth and very blend-able.

The PURPLY is purple as the name imply's, it  has a metallic shimmer closer to sleek eye dust "fantasy" but it has more gold, while the CORONA is a bronze color, it has mega shimmer and golden toned finish.

Worn alone (with no primer) the look is sheer with a noticable hint of color , i didn't notice any creasing for 5 hours - which was when i cleaned it off. Used with a primer the colors came out spectacularly, no creasing or fading out.

Application is best done with a short stiff brush to avoid fall out, am happy to say the  fall out was very easy to brush off without staining your makeup.

Package for the product isn't impressive but it holds so much products that i don't mind. i love the sift which helps in minimizing wastage.

EYE LINER REVIEWS

This is the list of my favorite eyeliner, basically liners that i can't do without.Liquid and gel linerS are my favorite. so i will be doing a review of of those product.

Lise beauty range GEL waterproof eyeliner:

This eyeliner lives up to its name of being water proof, with great pigmentation and creamy consistence.Easy to blend and it dries up into a matte finish. They have variety of colors am yet to try out but this gets 5 stars.
Packaging is not so fantastic and am a little disappionted that it doesn't come with a brush to apply it, its also very small but overall its cool.

TARA LIQUID EYELINER

This liner is cool.UPON First application it looks glossy and shiny but it dries into a matte finish which was a huge relieve to me. since i hate eye liners with glossy finish. it comes with a stick applicator, which great for beginners or people that find applying eye liner very tough.
Packaging is beautiful i love it and the size is just perfect.

TINT LIQUID EYELINER

This eye liner is the best of all best, its just perfect. Texture is great, pigments fantastic its sooo black and i love it so much i rarely use it. The applicator it comes with is a slim stick not a brush, which makes it great for beginner as well as for pros that want to create a very slim line.
Package is beautiful but i feel its too small - i want more.

NYC LIQUID EYELINER

I love this liner for precises application of very slim lines, its highly pigmented and it comes with a very thin brush. This brush can be a bit difficult for first timers, you needs patience and it takes time.
Package is good but nothing grand.

EGG FACIAL MASK

Everyone want a brighter skin, if not lighter - at least i do. i dont know where it came from but most people believe that their skin should be as light as the one they were born with,lol! and that getting darker was based on stress and sun. Yes! to an extent this is true but you really can't be as fair as you were as a baby,its an un avoidable fact of live - you will get dark upon exposure to sun so this is my remedy for it.

Follow this easy steps:
1. Wash your face

2. Break the egg

3. Separate the whites and the yolk

4. Beat the egg white until fluffy - you will know by the blubbles

5. Take a spoonful of fluffy bubbles
6. Massage into the face avoid your eye area

7. Let it dry, you will know this by the tight feeling- you just can't smile

8. Then wash off

9. Prick the yolk and take out very little
10. Apply on your face,let it get dry and wash off.
11. Treat the face with any age defying moisturizer(as the egg your as no age defying properties)

ADVANTAGES OF EGG WHITES
1.This egg facial is great for oily skin,
2. It offers immediate lighter and brighter face.
3. It tighten the skin
4. It reduces pore size, therefore less oil is produced.
ADVANTAGES OF EGG YOLK
this is a natural moisturizer, it great for oily skin and leaves a very fresh feeling.

After enjoying the moisturizing feel of egg mask nothing goes to waste so i added more eggs and beat it all together plus all unnecessary spices no details(this is not for cooking tips)

then i fried it, what a delicious breakfast, hmmmm! you missed. make it happen for yourselves

















Enjoy, MUAH!

CLOWNISH MAKEUP

This eye shadow was inspired by a clown's costume but i decided to blend the colors with more order than is usually employed by them.

My right eye has yellow,orange and blue was blended into the lower lids. Purple was used to contour and a light gold used to highlight.
The second eye has gold and red but the red looked to dull so i covered it with a light blue eyeshadow, am sure you will still see the redish undertone, then added a deeper color of blue at the outer coner of the eye.
I contoured with black and highlighted with silverish gold.
No blush and lip stick for obvious reasons, the eye were to loud and i wanted them to shine through no competition.

If this look will fit into what you want then enjoy rocking it, (on a runway, in a club or a night out) but pls only at night.
LOVE YA,MUAH!
