Active Cosmetics Glamour Radiance Compact


Hey Ladies,

Hope Everything is fine your end, Today I am going to share a New Cosmetic Product which hardly you might have heard of, Recently here there was a new counter opened in the Cosmetics Section, these products were sold on a good deal, so I thought of trying one of the palette. The Product is from Active Cosmetics, they are from Manchester UK.
Active Cosmetics : Glamour Radiance Compact

Contains: 18 Eye Shadows, 2 Bronzers , 2 Blushers & 3 Brush Applicators

Quantiy :15.3 g

About Active Cosmetics:

In 2001, in England the Active Cosmetics was founded. It steadily established itself within the England Cosmetics Manufacturer. In 2006 a new bronzing range, named Sun Kissed was introduced by ACTIVE Cosmetics. The Active Cosmetics brand offers a variety of Active Cosmetics including: Glamour Radiance, Active Sun Kissed Bronzing Pearls and Active Sun kissed Bronzer and other Discount Active Cosmetics.

Can be bought through Websites like Amazon, Fragrancedirect.co.uk or any counters if available.

Price  of this Particular Palette is : 5.5 RO (Rs 750 Approx)

My Opinion about the product:

Frankly speaking I haven’t used them on myself yet, since I have recently bought this. But I did swatched it in the mall and on my hand while doing this review, what I found was

Colors are really pigmented, but it would definitely need a proper base before applying these eye-shadows  The formula is non cakey, but some fall outs are expected. All the colors are super easy to blend, some does look glossy but actually there are no shimmers which I found really good. Most of the colors look similar when swatched on the hand. But I think may be I haven’t used any base underneath. The Staying Power overall is not bad too, This palette consists of both Neutrals and Pastels Shades which is good while travelling, It also comes in the a Matte Black , Sturdy Box which resembles a plastic case where in we keep our visiting cards but a little bigger in size. The detailed Ingredients and Quantity are mentioned behind the Box, which is really awesome.

The product has lots of variants like Sun kissed Bronzers, Highlighters, Glamour 88 Palettes, Eyebrow Kit , Eyelashes. All are available online in Fragrancedirect.co.uk or Amazon.com

Overall I am loving this product so far, I will soon do a Eye tutorial on this palette to ensure a proper understanding on the texture and shades.


The Top Line shades are mixture of Neutrals and pastels

The Middle Line Shades are a little darker version of the Top ones
The Bottom Line Shades are really Intense shades
Now ,The Blushers and Bronzers are all glossy and great texture but too light shades so i won’t be using these as intended but think of using them as a highlighter or blending the crease.


I really dint find the Brushes and the Applicators quite useful as they are the similar ones which we get in all the palettes




My Recommendation:

Yes , It’s a travel Friendly palette , Inexpensive, can be used by the beginners as well, Active Cosmetics is also known for their Lashes , so I think of soon buying the Lash and Eyebrow Palette.

LBA Rating:

3.5/5 (Points deducted because of the blushers and bronzers)

Tips on simple Summer Looks


Summer brings with it a ghastly image of runny foundation, smudged Kajal and clumpy mascara. And that only seems normal with the soaring temperatures. What do you do then, if you’re the kind who can’t do without your daily fix? We got the experts to show you the lightest looks you can opt for.



Look 1

Ø  Use a light moisturizer followed by a very light compact to keep the skin matte and fresh.
Ø  For the eyes, use a hint of waterproof kohl and mascara. If you want to dress up, use winged-tip eyeliner or colors like green, blue and grey, apart from the classic black and brown.
Ø  Use only a bit of the cheek tint, which is great for summer. If you use too much, it will streak.
Ø  Apply a pop of color on your lips, directly or using a lip brush. A hint of gloss just at the centre of the lips gives a good finish. Using a lip pencil to fill in a natural color on the entire lip along with some pink gloss gives a subtle yet finished look.

Look 2 (My Favorite Look)
Ø  Begin with a tinted SPF moisturizer. A BB cream is your best choice this season because it acts as your moisturizer, sunscreen as well as foundation.
Ø  Use eye shadow in a neutral shade to brighten up your eyes. You can also use it on the bridge of the nose and cheeks to highlight your features for an evening look.
Ø  Use a coral blush, matte or slight shimmer for day and evening both. Use sheer blush to make your face glow.
Ø  Sheer orange gloss or tinted lip balm is a good choice for summers. Avoid wearing anything heavy or sticky on the lips.
Ø  Choose brown, charcoal and plum pencils for light yet defined eyes. Add a dash of mascara (make sure it’s light and non-clumpy).

Look 3
Ø  Massage your skin with a generous amount of moisturizer.
Ø  Use primer to even out the skin texture and ensure a better finish for your foundation.
Ø  Use a Concealer if required to cover any shadows or discoloration on the skin.
Ø  Apply foundation with a brush. Set it with translucent powder for long-lasting results and to take away excess shine from the face.
Ø  Use a bronzer to get a flush of color in an orang-ish-brown color.
Ø  Apply a layer of eye shadow in toffee and caramel with groomed brows and add mascara on the lashes.
Ø  Use nude, coral or toffee colors on the lips

Please let me know whats your everyday and weekend look this summer

Deborah Milano Hi-Tech Trio in the Shade Black Dalia

 Hello Munchkins,

How have you been? Today I would be sharing my views on an Intense yet beautiful looking palette from Deborah Milano. Most of you might not go for such bold or dark colors on eyes, but I really love dark and intense shades on my eyes occasionally or some time when I am in that frame of mind.

So the Product of the Day is Deborah Milano Hi Tech Trio in the Shade Black Dalia No 13


Description
True, vibrant color. Frosted finishes of dazzling radiance. The silky smooth consistency goes on evenly and the three shades can be combined every which way to create a breathtaking array of effects. The product is formulated for easy blending, so color can be applied either wet or dry to achieve the desired intensity and depth. Hypoallergenic.* Ophthalmologist tested.
*Formulated to minimize the risk of allergy.

How to use: Used dry the finish is sophisticated and luminous, while used wet the result is metallic and visually dramatic.

Price : 3 RO (420 Rs) 

My take on the Product :
The formula of these shadows is most pigmented and it does pops out the shade very well. These baked trio eye shadows come in a round palette with a see through plastic lid. The Staying power of this shadows is super awesome, I had applied this in the morning for the tutorial and it lasted for about 6-7 hours.

All the shades are shimmery and the most important quality of this palette is that it can be used even with wet shadow brush and the colors shows off really well, metallic & dramatic. I was amazed to see such colors, It has a Shimmery White, Shimmery Black and Shimmery Navy Blue (Oouch), Blue did I see blue …normally we see White, Black and Grey, but blue…I loved it when I swatched it on my wrist, the colors were really looking amazing. They all have a smooth touch and spreads easily over the eyelids.

It comes with an bend applicator brush which I haven’t used yet, it sort of okie-doke,


 Ingredients:
My Likes:
  • It comes in a sturdy palette and it is quite travel friendly.
  • Staying power is amazing .
  • Inexpensive.
  • Could be used wet but I've not tried it though.
  • The texture is very smooth and glides easily
  • I love the tiny shimmers it has.
  • What I have noticed in this particular palette is once the color is wiped out the shimmers are also gone whereas in many palettes tiny shimmers exists even if the color is being wiped off.
  • I especially bought this for the navy Blue color which is superrrr awesome.

 My Dislikes:
  • My only con is a base should be applied with the dark shade.
  • No Mirror

Recommendation:
Yes, anyone who likes to intensify their look by using such bold colors can go for this palette.
