Get Glittery & Glamorous with Christine Cosmetics Sparkling Dust-Review, swatch and Looks


Last year has been of glittery bright eyes that can make anyone swoon. People have been searching for the glitters everywhere to achieve that fine glitter fit for their eyes that looks luxurious to wear. If you have been following me on Facebook & instagram, you would know I recently did eye looks using glitters. Since many people asked me, I am reviewing my recent loves Christine Cosmetics loose glitters.

CHRISTINE COSMETICS SPARKLING DUST:

SPARKLING DUST : Iridescence color with multidimensional shine & Pearlescent Effect for Eyes,Cheeks & Hair.



My Experience:

Christine cosmetics has been my favorite local brand for a very long time be it compacts or lipsticks. I was a bit skeptical while getting these loose glitters but now I am glad I did.
These glitters come in small screw open clear plastic pots with a black caps that close securely. Once you open the cap, there is a seal over the opening which you have to tug open and good thing is its resealable if you be gentle with it. This way its super safe to carry around with you.I have dropped the pots a couple of times(clumsy me) and there was no damage to the pots and there was spillage of product even with the seal removed. The opening is small so its easier to control the product you dispense. Here I suggest taking small amounts of product in the cap and then using them according to need. The clear pot makes it easy to see the color without opening the pot (plus they look super cute on the vanity). The pots have the color names on a sticker under it that makes it easier to identify them. The glitter itself is very fine and there are no large chunks in it. I have 2 colors Gold &  White Gold, both translate beautifully to their true colors on the lid. The finely milled glitter reflects light and looks absolutely gorgeours to wear. Like loose glitters it is not self adhesive and when used dry, the under eye fall out is enormous and it tends to fall all the time.

Tips for Application :

Use a wet brush (preferably wet with a setting spray)  to pack the glitters over the lid
When the glitter is still wet apply dry glitter with the help of your fingers and pack to the density you like.
Always use a setting spray after you are done to lock the makeup in place and avoid falling out of glitters.
Don't use lash glue for these glitters, that will require alot of amount of glitter and will be difficult to remove afterwards.
Apply eyeliner after the glitter application, this will give you clean eye liner. Applying eyeliner before with get it all glittery and you have to apply it again.
Let the glitter dry without opening you eyes to much, this will prevent it from early creasing.

Belleme Eye Want You Cream Shadow in Carrot Cake - Review, Swatch & Look

Hello Girls!

Today I am reviewing Belleme's Cream eye shadow in Carrot Cake.

The Product:

Belleme is a Korean brand that offers all sorts of makeup products and tools. I must say, I have gone through their whole range and I didn't find  single thing that I didn't want to have,but sadly you cant have everything you want :(. Now back to the eye shade. The packaging is so so so cute that i fell in love with it even before opening. Every product has a unique packaging. The cream eye shadow comes by the name of EYE WANT YOU CREAM SHADOW in a small clear jar with a plastic lid ( you can clearly see that in the pictures. )


















My Experience:

I read about this cream shadow in a few blogs and saw them raving about this. This made me curious and I got this one for myself just to see what it is actually like. The quantity is quite small that is quite a set back but hey look at all the great things we are getting in this tiny jar.The product is very pigmented and a little quantity is enough to work upon whole lid. It is easily blendable and staying power is very long. I swatched it yesterday and its still on wrist even after a shower. You have to take it off with makeup remover. It doesn't smudge on oily lids AT ALL(I have oily lids). So all in all I absolutely adore  it :) I have done a look using this eye shadow, you can check it Here.

The swatch:









I Like:

  • Colour pay off is great.
  • Staying power is very long
  • Smudge proof
  • Smooth and creamy texture that stays even after drying 
  • Gives a very luxurious look
  • Cute packaging :D

I Don't Like :

There is nothing that i don't like about this cream shadow. I will be getting more soon :)

My Rating:


I give it a 5/5. There is nothing you would regret if you get this shadow. I got mine ordered from Abbamart Korea. My brother lives there so he got me this ^.^ so I don't know the price. But you can order it online from Abbamart directly or from Lush Grooming Bargains-Smart Shopping hub for men and women on facebook.

Have you tried this or any other product from Belleme ? Do let me know. xoxo
