Jordana Complete cover 2 in 1 Concealer & Foundation

SO, if you follow me on YOUTUBE you'll know that I'm a HUGE +Lancome USA fiend. Period. Following close.. but not toooooo closely is +MakeupForever...

For drugstore I have been LOVING +L'ORÉAL PARiS  (tru match) and now this Jordana.

It will be released in February 2015. YOU MUST get your hands on this. When I received it my friend Giselle swatched it... and her WHOLE jaw dropped...  OMG she goes "this feels like the Estee Lauder"... which I am also a fan of as well.

So my friend +QueenGesus compared this foundation which will cost all of $2- $3.99 in Walgreens, to a $50 product.

I tried it on my hand & LOVED it . Wore it on my face the next day mixed with some moisturizer just to run some errands, and I AM ENAMORED!


THE BREAKDOWN

Texture | Soft and creamy. It's very well pigmented.

Coverage | The name says it ALL. Maximum coverage!
it's buildable and great if you suffer from hyper-pigmentation
GREAT for under eye and BOMB for highlighting and contouring. 

Color Choice | I LOVE the color choices. They have a GREAT color 
called "Golden honey" and if you are South Asian you will LOVE this color. It's deep, yet
still olive toned- and AMAZIIING! 

Wear | It wears SO well. I would say it's best for combo skin. While it does not have a 
matte finish "oily girls" can wear it too. With a GREAT primer this foundation is a STAR!
Users with dry skin will also LOVE this as an option! 

Scent | No noticeable scent or reaction from this formulation. 

Perks | I have heard great things about Jordana foundation before, but HONESTLY the old packaging was NOT my fave. I LOVE this new tube. The packaging got me on bored. 
I feel as though it looks professional and I would be proud to use this on gigs... 

Draw Backs | Ummmm ok so I know some people have an issue finding this 
brand. I will say Walgreens and "the beauty supply store" are my go to places for this brand. 

The Finish | In my Eddie Murphy voice "What is this Velvet" LOL it is SO soft
and smooth... it goes on HIGH END. Like a luxury moisturizer. 

Conclusion | I LOVE it. LOL. It will be added into my routine. I use mahogany as a contour and Golden toffee as my base and LOVE golden caramel as a highlighter. 

Rating | 5 STARS YES!

I give it 5 stars because of the price and the packaging!
I also salute this foundation because this brand continuously 
grows and grows.. I like that! 

Keep up the GREAT work Jordana!

NYX High Voltage Lippies Swatches + Review



Beautifully pigmented and creamy.
 I am VERY excited about these +NYX Cosmetics High Voltage lipsticks. 

The array of color is amazing, as to be expected with NYX.. 
They NEVER spare the drama.
Definitely the kings of inexpensive prestige makeup brands, in my opinion... 

My favorite products from NYX have to their skin prep & finishing 
products. 
i.e (primers and finishing sprays)

Next favorite is for sure their lip products! I was pretty excited to get invited to their
annual after IMATS party... It was a Masquerade ball and it was beautifully
adorned with projected NYX logos and makeup 
and cupcakes & a flip book booth,  OH MY!

Click HERE to see photos from the night 

It was amazing, open bar and gift bag HEAVY! My.Type.Of.Party... 

In the gift bag their were over 300 products. YES I said 300!!

Of the MAJOR swag in my bag, the High Voltage Lipsticks stood out!
 I HAD to do a quick review on the new objects of my affection... 

I've had a few days to play with them here are my thoughts... 

Texture | Creamy moisturizing more of a balm consistency. I find that they go on better
and stay on longer when your lips are moisturized and hydrated, yet not wet to the touch. 

Color Choice | I LOVE the color choices! They have the 90's colors we all love... The un shakable HOT orange and warm purple tones that has been killing for like 4 years now and some beautifulllll
mauves... I love the nudes available as well!
 A veritable rainbow of awesome lip days and nights... I can see it.. falling asleep in a 5 color purple ombre lip.. 
This in my future REALLY! 

The wear | They wear pretty well to be as moisturizing as they are, and like most lip products
they last longer & wear a bit better with a lip liner or base. 

The Scent  These have a baby soft hint of vanilla. Super clean and undetectable even to
the most scent-setive of noses.

Perks | They layer well! I have created SO many ombré lips looks with these lippies it's crazy! 
I love that you can have fun with so many at once! 

Drawbacks | Slim to none. As to be expected some colors are more pigmented. 
The reds (of corse the brown tones and the purples) reign supreme.... 

Conclusion | I LOVE that they have SO many warm and cool counter parts! 
I love the slim packaging
& the fact that you can se the color straight away! 
I love that the are virtually scent free & layer sooo well!

The Finish | Some have more of a buttery finish a few of the reds
and the dark purple finish almost like a liquid lipstick. Very smooth velvety even!

RATING / 4.7 out of / 5

I can't WAIT for these to be available in mattes (because I know they will) ...

That is THE only thing I can really comment on. 
I am a HUGE matte girl! I will certainly
use these (to death) 
I just know if they were matte they'd KILL the scene!
.. even harder.. lol

Check out these swatches!! 
Lip swatches coming up ASAP check on youtube for updates!
