L'Oréal Volume Million Lashes Waterproof Review

Hi!
Today I'm making the review of the L'Oréal Paris Volume Million Lashes Waterproof.
One of my friends gave me this. There how it is :






I have the waterproof one, which is black and 9 ml. It has a nice packaging, gold and blue.

"Voluminous Million Lashes Waterproof Mascara has a revolutionary collagen infused formula and Millionizer Brush for amplified volume and definition - The luxurious, buildable , no-clump formula amplifies each lash instantly. Glides on smoothly, and lasts all day, while thickening and separating every lash for a clump-free, smudge-free look.
The Millionizer Brush is uniquely designed to amplify and separate lashes from corner to corner while building breathtaking volume. The built-in Clean Sweep Wiping System wipes the brush free of clumps leaving the perfect amount of mascara for an ultra-volumized clean lash look."








It is said to be clump-free, flake-free, smudge-proof, all-day waterproof wear, fragrance-free, suitable for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers. It is also ophthalmologist-tested and allergy-tested.


My point of view :
It is a pretty good mascara, but not the best. It dries out fast when applying, so I can apply only one thick coat. On the second coat, the mascara begins to make clumps and flakes.

If you are in a hurry and want a natural look, you may use this mascara. But, don't use it for a party or a night out for example. I personally use it for a day-time natural look.

This mascara only brings length to lashes and any volume, unlike its promises.
The first good point is that it is not so liquid, this don't smudge, well, not really.






This is a pretty good brush, which is the second and last good point. I think that it is just the wrong formula. I've been using this mascara since 3 months, but not on a regular basis. I will use it for 1 more month. Once finished, I will keep the brush for applying another mascara.

You can do this as well, but be cautious and hygienic. Use hot water, shampoo to wash the brush. Let it dry, clean it a second time with a toner, using a piece of cloth. There it is!

Thank you for reading my review. Feel free to ask for advice below or via Facebook-Nadiah Soosor, or follow me. And, if you wish to read a product's review that I don't reviewed, Don't be afraid to write down the product's name and brand in the comment box or via Facebook, as usual. I will make my best to help you.

Sunkissed Giant Bronzer Review

Hola!

On my recent post, I said that I will make a review on my bronzing blush and there it is.
I have the Sunkissed Giant Bronzer in Medium and it is just THE bronzing powder!

"The Sunkissed Giant Bronzing compact has been the best seller for Sunkissed Cosmetics for the last 7 years.
The soft velvety powder in the matte finish and the combination of duo bronze shades will give you a perfect natural glow all year round."



In fact, I had the one from Réserve Naturelle (Terre de soleil-Blusher) but it's almost finished, so I bought this one to give it a try and I have no regrets!

It is composed of 2 shades of brown,the darker has a sun-shape whereas the paler is the background and has small stars over. It is a very big compact bronzer.




It has a powdery scent and is hygienic if you use it alone. Don't forget to wash your brushes regularly, and to purchase good quality brushes, maybe more expensive but will last forever and finally spend much less money. Good quality ones also avoid cheap looking results.

It gives a matte finish, with occasional or very little sparkles; they are noticeable only in sunlight or direct light.
I use it almost everyday and it is an all year round bronzer, thanks to its 2 tones. It is also good for contouring.
It lasts long on my face. I mostly use only a toner and moisturizer before.

For the price, simply, wow! This was unexpected. In the beginning, I thought that this will not be a so-good bronzer, because it was so cheap. And then, I could not not believe this. So little money for such a good blush! I can even say that it is like the more expensive ones, for example : the Bourjois Maxi Delight Bronzer.

Also, I've seen that there is Tocopheryl Acetate in the ingredient list, that is, vitamin E and this is a good point for a better looking skin.

Réserve Naturelle Make-up Palette Review

Hello.
One of my Christmas's gifts was a make-up palette; the Réserve Naturelle Make-up Palette and I'm going to make its review.






So, the black palette comes in a box of the same color. It is rectangular with cubic designs on it.

It consists of :

  • 8 eye shadows - white, beige, gray, green, brown, blue, purple, black.
  • 3 eyebrows shadows of 3 different shades of brown.
  • 1 pink blush.
  • 3 applicators.
  • 1 mirror.




The eye shadows are shiny and do not last long, maybe for 2-3 hours. Sometimes, I use it for highlights.

The blush is matte, so there will be any sparkles on your face. It is a good one, but I prefer bronzing blush (will make a review).

The applicators are basic, I use them to make up my eyes.

And finally, the eyebrows shadows.
This is the best part of the palette, for me. I love these eyebrows shadows; simple, matte, different shades. I even use its applicators to put it on. They give a good coverage and are also discrete. They last much longer than the eye shadows.

I think that I've told you the necessary. Please comment below for any questions.

Revlon ColorStay Lipstick Review

Hello!

I apologise for my absence. I am always busy in my studies, but now, I'm making an effort to give you a make-up review.

It's the Revlon ColorStay Ultimate Suede Lipstick.





"This velvety soft formula with moisturizing shea butter and aloe is food proof and does not quit. 20 shades. Apply once and go."

I have the 080 Fashionista one. It is in a cylinder-shape, transparent, plastic container, in which there is another plastic opaque one.

Fashionista is a matte, red and garnet, with a little touch of solid pink lipstick. It would say that it is a dark reddish pink one. I love this color.


It really stays and when it fades away, your lips still retain the color. It does not contain any sparkles or shiny stuffs and this is a good point for me.

Unless you use a lip balm before application or a lip gloss afterwards; you will get a matte full coverage finish. It is tasteless and does not have a noticeable scent.

It sticks well to your lips without that sticky, glue-like feel. It is has a drying effect, so if you have dry lips, I would recommend you to put on lip balm before.

To conclude, I think that this is value for money. Not shiny at all, not flavored, hygienic, long-lasting. There is also a variety of colors.

It's like velvet on my lips!

If you have any more questions, just write it down, or ask me via Facebook-Nadiah Soosor, or follow me.

Vaseline Healthy Hand & Nail Conditioning Review

Hi!
I have a hand lotion called the 'Vaseline Hand And Nail Conditioning' with keratin and vitamin E since a while, and I think that it's time to make its review.



It has a pink plastic packaging, with informations about the product, an expiry date and an ingredient list.
It should be squeezed to obtain the product, so it prevents bacteria proliferation which is a good point.

The ingredient list is long and full of chemicals and also contains hydrolysed keratin and aloe barbedensis (aloe vera).

"It is formulated just for your hands.
Clinically proven to hydrate dry hands and strengthen brittle nails.
It nourishes for softer skin, knuckles, smother cuticles, and stronger nails.
It's specifically developed to make nails 30% stronger."


My point of view :
It's a good hand lotion if you have dry skin. Your nails are more shiny and whiter only when you apply it and don't last for that much time. You should reapply it each time you wash your hands.


It is not expensive at all and is a basic hand lotion.
It is light and absorbs quickly, and makes your hands soft. It has a pretty good scent that lasts for about 1 hour.


This lotion also has some calming and cooling properties. You may apply it on burned skin (sunburn, kitchen burns).

I would recommend this to anyone having dry or normal skin.


If you have any questions, just write it down or ask me via Facebook-Nadiah Soosor or follow me .

Vatika Almond Hair Oil Review

Hello!
Today I'm making the review of one of the famous Indian's brand hair oil, the Dabur Vatika Almond Enriched Hair Oil.




The oil's name already says it - It is enriched with almond oil. But also contains coconut and sesame oils.


It helps soften, moisturize and condition the hair - giving your hair silky softness and shine.

Almond - Conditions your hair to make it soft.
Coconut - Penetrates hair shaft to strengthen and is known to make it thick.
Sesame - Coats the hair and gives it shine.

It is in a plastic transparent bottle, with a brown cap.
The oil is brown, translucent and not so thick. It also smells good.

My point of view :
I use this oil as a hair treatment before shampoo.
I use it frequently, maybe once per week. I put it all over my hair with circular movements in the evening and let it soak all night then wash it the next evening or put it in the morning and wash my hair at night. But you can let it soak for a maximum of 3 hours.


Sometimes, I also heat it lightly before application. It is said to improve the oil's benefits.
You may then use only shampoo. I prefer to use the shampoo (wash twice), conditioner and sometimes hair mask as well for a really deep treatment.


I've seen that it helps with hair growth. In fact, all hair oils help with hair growth. It also helps in dry hair, thus minimizing damaged, dry hair and split ends.


I love using hail oils. It's natural and does not cost a lot. It is a healthy way to make your hair beautiful. I also use other brands of hair oil but which always contain almond oil.

Almond oil is the best ever hair oil. Compared to other oils, this one really takes care of my hair and smells much better.

I would prefer to recommend the Bajaj Almond Drops Hair Oil rather than the Vatika one as it works best.
