Kryolan TV Paint Stick FS 38-Review, Photos, Swatches

Kryolan TV Paint Stick FS 38

Result: Kryolan TV Paint Stick is the only foundation stick I have tried after the Maybelline Express Finish Foundation Stick (which was discontinued a long time ago). I bought the Kryolan TV Paint Stick out of curiosity. Yeh, that's true. While at Naheed's about a week ago, I came across the company counter and bought it, because I am about to run out of my Luscious HD Mineral Foundation (read review) and I really wanted to switch for a change. So let's roll.

Maybelline Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel EyeLiner Blackest Black-Review, Photos, Swatches

Maybelline Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel EyeLiner Blackest Black

Result: The first time I've ever bought a gel eye liner. I've always been hesitant towards these and use pencil and liquids but when my cousin asked me to use this, it pushed me to get one for myself. I have to say the Maybelline lasting drama gel liner is the blackest of all black eye liners ever. Why I'm so sure about this, is because I have tried tons of liners and most of them have been black. This one is just great. The best thing about it is the power to hold onto the eyes. It is insanely water proof and I had to rub my eye area with my facial wash two times to lighten it. Then I used a soft towel to get off the rest.

Benefit Cosmetics Haul-Georgia, Coralista and Bad Gal Lash Mascara

 

January 18, 2014: I was shocked to know that my benefit stuff was fake. The details are in this post. Please beware of fake cosmetics being sold in Islamabad. I suffered a great loss but those who are responsible, hopefully will rot in hell as they've surely tricked thousands of other people. I won\t delete this post as you can see the fake ones quite clearly. I purchased these from National Warehouse Cosmetics Store Facebook Page. They were located in Islamabad and also launched a boutique named Black Arazi some time later. Please be aware of these frauds. They have removed their Facebook pages but I'm not sure if the stores are still operating. 

This is my first ever purchase from Benefit Cosmetics. I have been reading so much about their fake it kits, concealing products and all. I recently placed my first order to give their stuff a try. I got Georgia, which is a sheer peachy powder, Coralista blush and Bad Gal Lash mascara. 

They came in packaged in a pretty transparent cosmetic case, which I carry around when traveling. 

Rivaj UK Fashion Fit Nail Color 111 & 113-Review, Photos, Swatches

Result: Two more from the Fashion Fit collection. I don't understand the compromise Rivaj has made with quality when it comes to this range. The colors seem pretty opaque from the outside but on application they were very sheer, not what I expected.The 111, is a warm pink and 113 is a warm beige.

Rivaj UK Fashion Fit Nail Color 137

Result: I spotted this collection on a display at a local cosmetic store. I instantly fell in love with this shade as it seemed like the perfect dull gold, which will compliment my skin tone. I'll be comparing it with the Rivaj UK Color Fusion Nail Enamel (Click here for review).

Summers are on the rocks and boy am I melting! 

In Asia we have some of the worse summer days anybody can come across. People end up in hospitals due to dehydration and other heat related issues. And lack of electricity and other resources makes it worse. But lets not forget that summers keep us out of our beds and active at work.

So this is basically a mini summer shopping guide. Enjoy!
