Review and swatches: Bourjois eau de gloss cosmic in shade 20 sorbet fraise

What Bourjois says about this product?

A fresh smooth & sensual lip gloss Contains ultra-reflecting micro-glass pearls Gives a deep shine & magnifying glass effect Ultra soft & light texture leaves a fresh & non sticky sensation on lips Leaves you a sexy & kissable lips

My experience with the product

This particular gloss can be described as a gloss with medium opacity and LOTS of gold shimmer. When i saw the fact that its shimmery, I thought of very fine ones which is definitely not the case. I just went ohhhh sh*t when I saw this. I hate chunky shimmers in my gloss and this gloss is the definition of shimmery glosses.

Quality & pigmentation: like I said the pigmentation is medium not too sheer or fully opaque. It’s decent for a gloss at this price. However, a huge downfall is that it doesn’t keep up to its claims of being a non sticky gloss. It’s extremely uncomfortable to e worn t itself and also on top of a lip stick. The gloss also has a slight minty tingle and has sugar in the formulation.

Packaging: i think this was the reasoning for this purchase: P it had a unique packaging for being a gloss. I loved the glass packaging which makes it look premium. The applicator is a brush applicator which is not bad but I personally prefer the doe foot applicator.

Scent: the product smells fruity but at the same time very artificial which I do not prefer! They would have rather gone unscented in my opinion!

Longevity of wear: this gloss lasts for about 2 hours on the lips and I meant the colour at this point. However, once the colour goes away, the glitter remains on the lips which are so not attractive! If you decide to use it, you would have to reapply the gloss.

MINI HAUL: Tmart and eBay

Hey “BD beauties”!

I just realised that i had a few stuff that I hadn’t hauled and thus this quick mini haul. These are things that has reached me within the past 2 weeks. My purchases were from www.tmart.com and www.ebay.com 

MINI HAUL: Tmart and eBay

I have always wanted to try bourjois products but I do not have direct access to it so purchased it online. I got this lip gloss called eau de gloss cosmic in the shade ’20 sorbet fraise’ which is like an orangy-red if you know what I’m saying. Warmer reds preferably with orange undertones are the type of reds that go well with medium skin tones so that’s the reason for this purchase. The gloss cost $6 on eBay but you can find it for cheaper if you’re lucky. I will defiantly do a review of this product in the coming days.

MINI HAUL: Tmart and eBay

The next product is a mascara. I LOVE Asian brand mascara’s and i usually go for them compared to expensive ones as usually with mascara you throw it off by 3 months. These mascara’s are cheap, good quality and does the job. I had reviewed a mascara similar to this as the first post in blog which you can check HERE. This mascara is from the rand oputemon and is called amazing volume mascara. I got this for $3.99 from www.tmart.com

Constance caroll lip shiner lip gloss review & swatches

Hey guys!

This is going to be a quick review on constance caroll’s lip shiner lip gloss. The colours i have are in cocoa and coral crush. I came across this product rather brand itself when I was starting out on makeup. This is a really affordable makeup brand and quite famous in srilanka. This lip gloss costs about 400 srilankan rupees in srilanka.

According to constance caroll’s website, they have only 8 shades.
