Sheet Masks by Skin18 | R E V I E W

Hey Everyone!
Today i'm back with other skincare review. So, lets come to the point.
Today review is all about sheet masks.
so last month skin18 has sent me 2 of their sheet masks for review purposes.

These are Foodaholic 3D sheet masks in Potato & Grain.

Foodaholic 3D potato natural essence mask

This is a sheet mask.Good for suntanned skin as it soothes and calms it.
what i love about this sheet mask is that it moisturized my skin a lot and i was able to see my skin  as fresh. The only con is that is dried very quickly. 

Foodaholic 3D grain natural essence mask

It has mung bean, rice bran and yeast extract as well as hydrolyzed collagen that make the face glow while improving the skin texture and moisture level. 

How to use

1. Wash your face with a mild cleanser and apply toner.
2. Then apply the sheet mask to the face and use your fingertip to adjust.
3. Leave on for 20 – 30 minutes. Finally,  massage in gently the excess fluid.
4. But to get the most benefit, use 1-3 times a week.

Pros

• The Foodaholic Natural Essence Mask has a silky feeling and fits nicely on the face because of the 3D shape of the mask.
• I love that the mask is quite thick so at least it does not rip while unfolding the mask. Soaking in rich plant essence as a result I had some left which I used on my neck and hands.
• It feels so relaxing and soothing on the skin.

lets start review!

Primer

Okay so this is the primer from GlamGirl. lets talk about the packaging. All the products of glam girl has very sleek and simple yet pretty packaging. I really loved it.  It comes in a card box and inside it has a tube filled with the primer. 

Its a pore minimizer primer to give you oil free and smooth and silky skin and basically thats what a primer does. to minimize your pores and keep your makeup long lasting. & just look at its texture. its texture is creamy, not oily and after wearing it you can literally feel your skin super soft. and i'm really satisfied with results. it does its job. 

Pro-Matte Liquid Foundation

Its a pro-matte liquid foundation. Its box has the same packaging like primer. and foundation comes in this bottle and has a little pump on it which makes it easy that how much amount we want. 

Here's the swatch of this foundation. Its texture is creamy not too runny. it spreads amazingly on skin and its coverage is sheer to medium but can be achieved high coverage if set with setting powder. 

Its a bit dark for me, as you can see the swatch , its in shade 'ivory' but i like the coverage, its really nice! (Its available in 8 asian shades)

Magic Skin Perfecting Foundation

It comes in jar. and texture of this foundation is like tv stick. It also has a sponge with it to set. 

Its in shade 201 "Porcelain" which is the lightest one. 

Its available in 9 asian shades.

Here's the swatch of this foundation. It matches my skin perfectly. & To be honest I like it way more than that liquid foundation. Because its texture is amazing and coverage is very nice, or maybe it suits me more? :P I also use it as concealer and then set it with setting powder &&& you're good to go. 

Loose Setting Powder

Its a setting powder. It comes in sleek card box. and it contains soft cotton sponge you can bake your face with it and also set your face to control oil. its colorless HD powder. I really love it. it doesn't make my concealer crease. 

Loose Shimmer Powder/Illuminator

Its a loose shimmer powder. Its in shade 'Rose Glow' 

Here's the swatch of this shimmer powder. I really like it. its super pigmented, in swatch, its just a pinch of it and it gives a healthy pinky glow. Its one of my fav product from glam girl.

Radiance Strobe Cream

This strobe cream comes in simple purple plastic bottle. it has a black pump on it which makes it super handy to use your required amount. 

Its in shade "Gold Lite" which is perfect to give you blinding glow! be careful that you just need to press the pump just once, because only one pump is enough & tada you're good to go. 

now many people are confused about illuminator and strobe cream, like what is the difference between these two. i got many DMs regarding this, so let me tell you that you can mix this strobe cream in your liquid foundation to give you radiant healthy glow overall or you can just use it on higher parts of your face usning a flat brush, that's what strobing does. Its used to just add more glow & i love its glow way more than shimmer powder because its glow is very subtle, healthy, vibrant, fresh and can last for longer time. 

you can say its a dupe of MAC Strobe cream by #maccosmetics.

ITS MY MOST FAVORITE PRODUCT FROM GLAM GIRL. Just look at the swatch. Its super pigmented and bliding & radiant. 

& I am really grateful to Mahwish for chooisng everything correct about my skintone. all the shades are chosen by her, i just showed her a picture and she chose all the shades, like for liquid foundation, magic foundation, shimmer powder in rose glow & strobe cream in gold lite. Love you Mahwish. 

Lock It All Day Primer Mist

Its a primer mist. It comes with a card box and inside its a purple to pink probably tea pink shade liquid mist inside a plastic bottle. It has a spray pump up on it. 

Its written step 1 on it which means you can spray it on your face at initial steps to refresh your makeup. It contains organic substances like aloe vera extract and rose water etc. 

i sometimes use it as my toner after cleansing my face and work equally amazing like other toner. 

Lock It All Day Final Fix Spray

Its Lock it all day soothing final fix. It has same packaging like primer mist. 

Its skyblue in color. Its like dupe of NYC setting spray. Its the final step of makeup. when you're done with your makeup, just spray it on your face, just to keep everything in place. 

I noticed a even more healthy radiant glow after spraying it on my makeup. 

So, these are all the products sent to me by glam girl for review. All the products are tested & reviewed. 

Note: All opinions are my own & honest.

The Style Savvy.pk | R E V I E W

Hey Girls! hope ya'all are doing great. Today our topic is all about makeup. Who doesn't love makeup? If makeup can make you feel beautiful then its worth every penny. 

Lets come to the point. 
few days back, an online shopping page sent me few of their oriflame products to review. 
they sent me, a mascara, a concealer & lip balm. 
we all know baout Oriflame, its a swedish company that deals with quality products all over the world their products are known for best. 

So here we go. 

Mascara

Eyes are the main feature of the face. & i believe eyes are the gateway to our souls so make sure when someone stares in your eyes, these are beautiful enough to enter direct inside your soul. ;)

This mascara is called 5 in 1 wonder lash mascara. & lemme tell you one thing, im all about long & fuller lashes. I'm too lazy to mess with fake lashes, so i really expect my mascara to do it all :P 

okay so when you look at it, it has a regular tube & the brush is kinda plastic. 
They claim that this 5-in1 wonder lash mascara with high definition 3D lash-separating brush delivers more lift, length & amazing volume. 

What i felt is that this mascara made my lashes super long, plus it separates each & every lash & end up giving more volume! 
I have never used oriflame products before but this masara really does what it claims. i'm satisfied. 

Concealer

The tube is very simple sleek in packaging & is very handy. There are three shades in this range of concealers. These are more suitable for fair to medium skin tones. 
There is a nozzle on the tube that allows the product to be squeezed out in controlled quantities. For me, two drops of the product are enough to cover up the patchiness around my eyes. Texture is creamy, not runny, not thick. Just right to work with and blend into skin. I use a concealer brush to apply this product but you can use the finger pads, as well.It sets with a natural finish, “dewy”, I can safely say. Since, it does not have a perfect powdery finish, it would not settle or crease in fine lines. So, you can be carefree this aspect.

overall, its a good product but very pigmented dark circles might not be concealed properly. 

Balm

First of all, im loving this gold packaging & this cute tiny container is so cute. It contains 3 main active ingredients; mineral oil, beeswax and lanolin.

• It has a very smooth & light texture
• It gets absorbed very quickly
• Gives an instant soft & smooth skin

• It is non- greasy, doesn’t leave you with the feeling of oiliness. Love this feature the best.
• It can be used to treat dry or irritated skin, whether it’s around the eyes, lips, hands etc.
• For me it’s a multipurpose balm but i mainly used it for my lips. 
• Note: its their hotseling product & you know why? Because it delievers what it claims! 

okay! so overall im happy with all the products. Highly recommended

You can get these original oriflame products from @thestylesavvy.pk

Skin18 Sheet Mask | R E V I E W

Hello everyone! Im sorry i've been crazy busy  but today i'm back with another review for you guys!

So, Today’s review is of Real Nature Masks from Korean skincare brand – Nature Republic. Which Skin18 has sent me as PR Sample for Review. 

If you're not already familiar with the sheet mask phenomenon that started in Korea, sheet masks are paper, fabric, or gel face masks that are saturated with hydrating, brightening, or perfecting ingredients to pamper your skin. You simply place the mask over your face, let it sit as directed, and voila: your skin looks fantastic and you effectively got a facial without putting on any real pants. Truly, living the dream. 

Packaging & Product

The Real Nature Sheet Masks are cotton sheet masks that come in sachet packaging that has realistic images of the key ingredient of the mask. The ingredients list and usage instructions are found at the back of the sachet. The cotton mask is literally drenched in serum that may drip as you take it out of the package to use on your face. The Real Nature Mask from Nature Republic comes in 13 essences – Olive, Orange, Chamomile, Rose, Avocado, Shea Butter, Aloe Vera, Green Tea, Tomato, Acai Berry, Royal Jelly, Bamboo, Cucumber.

HOW TO USE

1. After washing the face, apply toner to prepare the skin for the next skin care.
2. Open the pouch, pull out the mask, and place on the face using the eye area to align it correctly.
3. Remove after 10-20 minutes and gently pat for better absorption.

My Experience

This was my first experience with any sheet mask & The result was actually very amazing. Like when i had this mask on, i could feel the soothing freshness in my skin. My skin was very well-hydrated and as this 'Bamboo' sheet masks claims that this sheet masks gives extra soothing & brightening effect, i literally felt that in my skin. skin was kinda supple also glow was the main thing i noticed & loved it. 

Rate: 4.5/5

Highly Recommended.

Skincare products by beautycorner121 | R E V I E W

Hey everyone! hope everyone's doin' great. 
Summer is on its peak & we're all burnin like hell :( & because of this heat skin problems are not surprise. everyone you meet must be facing skin problems, like acne & tanning rashes. 
so, don't worry, today i came up with a new review. 
2 months back beautycorner121 sent me 2 of their organic products. charcoal mask powder & a glow serum. 
i used them properly for an honest review & here i am with these babies!

so, these are the organic products. as you can see from their packaging they are handmade & are organic. 

Charcoal Mask

activated charcoal boasts beauty benefits for skin by drawing oil, dirt and other harmful substances from clogged pores due to its adsorption powers.It also draws bacteria, poisons, chemicals, dirt and other micro-particles to the surface of skin, helping you to achieve a flawless complexion and fight acne. 

My Experience

I added 2 spoon of this powder is lukewarm water & mixed it up, then immediately applied it on face & when after 15 mins it was dried i removed it in upward direction. it didn't remove my lil facial hair but i was able to feel the smoothness in my skin. my skin was tighten, soft & clean than before. one thing, i didn't like its smell at all.
i prefer to use it once in a week. 

 Almond Oil Serum
One of the biggest secrets behind the use of almond oil for skin treatments is the high level of fatty acids contained in the final oil mixture. Fatty acids serve as a natural emollient for the skin, and can help the skin lock in moisture by forming a protective barrier. Emollients are especially effective for conditions like acne, eczema, psoriasis, or rosacea.

now the people with oily skin must be worrying, right? Now, if you have oily skin, you might at first feel wary about putting any kind of oil on your skin, even if it’s just an ingredient in a face cream. However, the acne-forming oil that is produced by your skin is very different from the processed almond oil for skin treatments. With acne, some people are more prone to produce a sticky oil called sebum that can clog the pores with dead skin cells and other debris. However, the fatty acids in almond oil actually help dissolve the sebum that your skin produces, creating cleaner skin and pores, and helping to get rid of acne. So say no to your worries! :)

My Experience 

I applied few drops of this serum on my face at night for almost 2 weeks. & in morning i'd feel my skin supple & fuller. within 2 weeks it showed results, i had dewy glow on my face & dark circles were sorta less than before. & why not? its all natural/organic.

 Im happy with results & highly recommend both products. 
would i repurchase again? Yes

Customers are be able to find almost all types of fashion & beauty/makeup products. They not only offer affordable rates but their products quality is absolutely amazing.

Lets Start with Glow kit which is my favourite! 

Anastasia Beverly Hills Glow Kit

So, this is how it looks like from outside. Actually its a dupe but as you can see, there's not a single difference between original & dupe. The packaging is same to same, first impression makes you go for it.

Anastasia Beverly Hills Glow Kit Ultimate Glow is a highly blendable, ultra-fine formula that won’t leave shimmer particles. It comes with six gorgeous shades. Magically-Metallic six powder highlighters  for intense luminosity that offer a celestial skin finish. Layer shades of Anastasia Beverly Hills Glow Kit, together or sweep them separately on face, eyes and body for a kaleidoscopic, shimmering effect. Ideal for use with Brush. For a brightly amplified glow, apply with a damp makeup brush or sponge. Six metallic powder highlighters for intense luminosity.

• Golden Dawn (warm amber w/ gold reflect)
• Sunray (warm copper w/ peach gold lustre)

Swatches

This is how these super pigmented shades look like without flash. i am obsessed. 

& this is how it looks like in flash. just look at the pigmented glow! +_+ isn't it worth drooling? 

overall its worth spending money! im satisfied with quality. 

Huda Beauty Liquid Matte Lipstick

So, they sent me this Huda beauty Liquid matte lipstick in shade ICON. this color is actually gorgeous. its easy to layer & comfortable to wear, it smoothly glides on lips. plus its long lasting, its stays for almost 8 hours without eating anything but if you eat or drink then staying power will be less. Its a perfect shade for day or night look. you can also create ombre by mixing it with other shade, I actually loved this shade, its so appealing & gothic. you can use multiple layers to make a thick layer of kinda dark shade. 

Swatch

This is the swatch, so vibrant color, rich texture, smooth & long lasting.  just the way i want it. 

I absolutely loved both of the products. & im super satisfied with quality & most affordable prices.
