Product Review: FACE atelier Part 2

FACE atelier

Some days ago, I wrote a product review post for FACE atelier makeup products, and now I am bringing you a review of the rest of the samples I received. I am reviewing 4 products today, and they are:

  • Ultra Camouflage Duet Dark
  • Revenge Lipstick
  • Ultra Sheer Bronzer Cognac
  • Ultra Sheer Bronze

 

FACE atelier Ultra Camouflage Duet Dark

FACE atelier Concealer

 

Here is what FACE atelier had to say about this concealer:

Fabulously flexible, FACE atelier’s silicone-based Ultra Camouflage Duet virtually erases imperfections and those pesky dark circles that have taken up residence beneath your eyes. Each Ultra Camouflage Duet has two color-matched shades that work in perfect harmony with FACE atelier Ultra Foundation. Ultra Camouflage Duet provides long-wearing, buildable coverage. The silicone in the formula guarantees that it will not flake, dry or crack.

 

Here are my thoughts:

PROS

None.

Sorry, but I have nothing good to say about this particular product.

Makeup

 

CONS

  1. It tends to crease overtime.
  2. It looked ‘caked’ on me. This concealer is heavy and sticky.
  3. I found it too thick and dark. I am not a fan of its consistency at all.
  4. It was not long-lasting, in a couple of hours, I looked like I didn’t have a concealer on.
  5. It didn’t conceal my spots or blemishes. It kind of made it look worse off.

 

FACE atelier Ultra Sheer Bronzer Cognac

Bronzer

 

Here is what the brand has to say about this bronzer:

Ultra Bronzer represents the perfect marriage of performance and technology. They feature a sophisticated formulation that uses pure, micronized pigments surrounded by silicones, which create a cushion between the powder and the skin. Silky soft, Ultra Bronzer is the perfect complement to Ultra Foundation.

FACE atelier Cognac Blush

 

Here are my thoughts:

PROS

  1. It gave my skin a nice healthy glow.
  2. It serves as a good base. Fab multi-tasking product.

 

CONS

  1. I found as liquid as the foundation I reviewed in the first part. I prefer my bronzers and foundation slightly thicker.

 

FACE atelier Revenge Lipstick

 

FACE atelier lipstick

 

Here is what the brand has to say about this lipstick:

Seal it with a kiss, using FACE atelier’s high performing lipsticks, available in matte, satin or frost finishes.   FACE atelier Lipsticks are extremely well-pigmented ensuring long-lasting results.  They are also hydrating and moisturizing due to the high content of emollients in the formula.

Here are my thoughts:

  1. I found it long-lasting. It stayed on for hours.
  2. I am a fan of matte lipsticks so this is right up my street.

 

CONS

  1. I am not sure about this blood-red shade.

 

FACE atelier Ultra Sheer Bronze

Ultra Sheer Blush

 

Hers is what FACE atelier has to say about this bronze:

Silicone-based Ultra Sheer is magic in a bottle.  Hydrating yet oil-free, add it to Ultra Foundation to subtly alter its hue, or use over Ultra Foundation to highlight. Use Ultra Sheer alone for a diaphanous finish that floats on your skin as it luminates.  It’s a blush – a bronzer -a highlighter.

Ultra Sheer. Simple to use. Simply miraculous. Moisture, heat and sebum resistant. 

 

FACE atelier Makeup

 

Here are my thoughts:

PROS

  1. I achieved a natural highlighting effect using this bronze.
  2. My face had a warm, healthy glow.
  3. It can be used as a highlighter or a bronzer. Great multi-tasking product.

CONS

None.

The Ultra Sheer Bronze is my favourite product off all 4 products. I see myself buying it.

 

Overall, I strongly recommend the FACE atelier Ultra Loose Powder, Ultra Blush Mocha, Lip Glaze Shiraz, and the Ultra Sheer Bronze. As for the others, you would have to try them yourself and decide.

Have you tried any of these products? What are your thoughts? Drop me a comment, let’s chat.

Thanks for reading and have a crazy weekend.

5 Ways To Style Your Boots

Lunar Booties

The autumn/winter season is here again, and that means we got our coats, jumpers, scarves, snoods, sweaters and boots out ready to get our layering groove on. This is such a fun season for the fashionistas, as well as for the ‘ordinary people’ like us. I look forward to this season because I find the layering trend very stylish and comfortable. The colours of the season are some of my favourites as well, so I am loving the pieces and accessories in stores at the moment. It did take me a while to get a hang of it, but once I understood how it worked, I now enjoy dressing up during the cold months.

I love my Boots especially, I have been building my collection, and I have quite a few now; the one above, Suri Long Boot is a new addition from Lunar shoes. I love the suede look, and the small heel makes it very practical. You will be seeing more of this beauty in an outfit post, so keep your eyes peeled.

I find Boots very versatile, they make dresses and skirts wearable during the cold months, and they add a touch of glam to jeans or leggings. Here are 5 tips for you to remember when next you want to rock a pair of boots:

  • Wear short skirts or dresses with a stiletto thigh high boots, or flat heel boots with a mini. This looks are more covered, and remember your tights!

 

  • When rocking fuller skirts, make sure the hem of your skirt, falls just over the top of the boots. It looks more pulled together.

 

  • If you do not like to dress up too warm, pair your tall boots with lighter pieces – skirts and dresses. The boots would keep you warm, and you get some wear out of your lighter pieces during the cold season.

 

  • Pair your tall dark boots with the same colour for your jeans or leggings. So if you are wearing a black pair of boots, pair it with a black pair of jeans or leggings. This look makes your legs appear even longer.

 

  • Wear ankle booties with trousers for a more formal look. They slip under the pants quite easily, and appear more formal.

Lunar Boots

 

So those are my 5 tips for wearing boots this season. Do you have any tips to add? Drop me a comment, let’s chat.

Happy thanksgiving my American friends. Have a great weekend everyone.
