[REVIEW] Rouge Bunny Rouge Color Burst Lipstick in Scrumptiously Devious

Rouge Bunny Rouge is a cult brand that started in London. Their makeup is inspired from the Victorian era- with fairy tale names and whimsical stories that describe their products. For today I will be reviewing a Hue Of Enchantment in the shade Scrumptiously Devious. 
Rouge Bunny Rouge describes Scrumptiously Devious as "Bestselling satin-finish cool lavender-pink with a warm golden opalescence - Inspired by the colours of pomegranate skin, cool with a warm impression"


Rouge Bunny Rouge Says:

The fiercely beautiful royal dragonflies from the Enchanted Garden inspired us to concoct this glorious beam of a lipstick for you. 

Their buzzing intensity has been poured into the most vividly delectable hues imaginable, to make your lips appear instantly fuller, and bewitchingly luminous. There are enough shades to satisfy even your strongest colour cravings. The exact texture for every one of these wearable, yet intensely powerful and pigment-dense shades has been carefully chosen so that each can have its most fitting expression. Whichever you choose, you’ll be sure to stand out like a bird of paradise amongst a field of sparrows. Go ahead and cast a boldly magical spell!

The easy glide, hydrating formula ensures superb comfort and softness. Enriched with Vitamin E, to nourish and protect from dryness and ageing. 

With three separate formulas, depending on the texture, coverage and finish, all are suffused with botanical extracts such as Orchid Flower extract, Meadowfoam, Manoi Butter or Inca Inchi oil.

Packaging:
I absolutely adore how cute and study the packaging is. It comes in a sleek black metal case with some white floral designs across the bottom. The entire packaging is metal which gives the lipstick a sophisticated feel. 
Swatch:
I would describe Scrumptiously Devious as a pink nude with gold shimmer. It is a very sheer finish so if your lips are dark it will not show up as much. I do prefer to wear this as a daytime lip-color because it has a very nice golden sheen so I like wearing this without a gloss.

To Sum it up:
Scrumptiously Devious wears about 3 hours for me, I find that after an hour it starts to sink into the fine lines on my lips. It is a sheer finish so it really just enhances your natural lipcolor. It is hydrating and it feels like a lip balm so it does look nice without a gloss. It has an odd scent to it, which is kind of similar to a lip balm. Overall I really enjoy using this during the day since it is sheer.

Likes: 
- Sleek and sturdy Packaging
- Shade is perfect for daytime
- Hydrates lips
- Smooth application

Dislikes:
- Sinks into fine lines
- Doesn't last more than 3 hours
- Sheer
- Lip balmy scent

Rating: 4/5
Price: £22.00 Available online at Zuneta.com, they ship worldwide.

[NAILS] piCture pOlish- Aphrodisiac

Hi everyone!

Some days I love going for dark vampy nails. On my nails today is a deep black purple shade from Picture Polish called Aphrodisiac. I love how they name their polishes. I wish that this polish has a bit more sparkles since it looks gorgeous in the bottle but on my nails it shows up as a creme finish. I took a photo with flash which shows a bit of the sparkles.

What Glamorous Cosmetics Say:

Special thin case designed for easy transport. 22 colors to choose from!

All of these lipsticks have a matte finish but still provide moisture which is why they show up smooth on the lips. Two Lips is a soft rosey pink. Sure Thing is a cherry red. Sunblind is a peachy pink.

Long Stay Lipstick in Sure Thing -17 Swatch
Long Stay Lipstick in Sunblind -7 Swatch

To Sum it up:
I wouldn't say these are long lasting. I find that with matte finish lipsticks they do generally last longer. I really like how easily these apply and very smoothly. You do have to apply a few layers to get a opaque color, they aren't sheer. They are not drying at all but I find that these sink into my lips and after a few hours it doesn't feel like I have anything on. These lasted about 4 hours on my lips without a lipliner but I am sure if I used a lipliner they would last longer. These have a scent which I can't pinpoint but it is somewhat fruity that might be bothersome if you don't like scented lip products. These contain 1.5g of product which is half the amount you would get in a normal lipstick so these will get used up pretty fast.


Likes:
- Smooth application
- Hydrates lips
- Doesn't dry out lips after use
- Lasts 4+ hours
- Opaque 


Dislikes:
- Contains less product


Rating: 4/5
Price: $7.00

[REVIEW] Liz Earle Sheer Pink Lip Shimmer

During the winter’s our lips are the most prone to dryness. Moisturizing them is really important so when I saw the Liz Earle Sheer Pink Lip Shimmer I wanted to try this since it states to be a shimmery lip salve. 

The lip shimmer is a light lip balm formula that comes in a pink pot. It has the slightest shimmer but on my lips it doesn’t show up. For those with lighter lips this will be perfect for an everyday lip balm.

Liz Earle Say:
Lips have never looked so enticing than with our ‘barely there’ shimmering lip salve. Ultra-conditioning and enriched with a softly sparkling rose sheen to make lips irresistible.
Apply to bare lips with fingertips
Naturally active ingredients include vitamin E, rosehip oil to help lock in moisture and neroli oil for its uplifting and restorative properties.


I am not a huge fan of lip products which I have to use my finger to get the product, it’s unhygienic and a bit annoying to stick my finger in to get product. The texture of the product is really unique, it’s a solid but dissolves once you rub your finger to get some product. 

When applied, it doesn't feel like a normal lip balm but you can feel more oil's in the product. The scent of the product is really organic, it doesn't have any artificial fruity scent which might be bothersome to some. I like applying this on top of lipsticks since it gives a nice hydrated feel without it being overly glossy.

Overall I think this is a nice product to use everyday if you don't mind using your fingers for application. My lips feel well hydrated even after the product wears off from my lips.

5g pot priced at £4.75
For more Information Liz Earle Can be found on Facebook and Twitter along with their website.

[REVIEW] Essence Gel Eyeliner in 01 Midnight in Paris

Kohl eyeliners never work for me. I find that no matter what brand I use after a few hours I end up having raccoon eyes. No matter how much black eyeshadow I set it with they never last long and end up smudging through the day. Liquid eyeliners are a bit better but I find that they end up fading through the day. Thus comes the gel eyeliner known for being the longest wearing product for eyeliner. The Essence Gel Liner in 01 Midnight in Paris is opaque, jet black and has a creamy consistency. I picked this up after visiting their launch at Naheed's Super Market here in Karachi I knew I wanted to try this gel liner.
I love this brand! Their packaging is so adorable and the quality is just amazing. Their general market is for teenage girls since their products have such low prices. 


01 Midnight in Paris is a smooth mousse-like jet black gel liner that dries to a semi-matte finish. The product comes in a glass pot with a plastic lid. This is one of those products where a little goes a long way! Just the tiniest dab if product can line your entire eye.

Essence Says:
It's ultra-smooth gel formula allows an accurate application similar to liquid eyeliner. The range offers various effects, such as matte or shimmering. Simply dip the special Essence Gel Eyeliner Brush into the pot and effortlessly paint a perfect quick drying line. You're left with an ultra long-lasting, smudge and waterproof look! Available in three colors.


The product is super creamy, more like a mousse texture. It dries within couple of seconds once dried its completely smudge-proof and fade-proof. I find that when I apply a thick layer it doesn't dry completely and it transfers to my lid. The color doesn't fade at all and its super waterproof! I really like using this in my upper lashline, it doesn't irritate my eye at all which most products do when I apply product there.

To Sum it Up:
Overall a great product. The product applies really smoothly, it takes the tiniest bit of product to line your entire eye so the pot will last you a very long time.  It lasts a very long time on my eyes without budging. I love using this product, the application is really easy and I find that it doesn't make my eyes water which has been an issue with my sensitive eyes. Since it is a waterproof product my oil based makeup remover didn't work that well however extra virgin olive oil easily removed the product. 


It comes in 3 other colors London Baby (brown), Berlin Rocks (deep plum) and I Love NYC (green).


Likes:
- Pigmented
- Soft texture
- Easy application
- Waterproof
- Doesn't fade


Dislikes:
- Difficult to remove
- Smudges when applied too much


Price: 
PKR 460 available at Naheed's Super Market in Karachi
$3.49 available at Ulta

2012 Beauty Resolutions!

Since the new year has arrived I've been reading numerous blog posts on new years resolutions! So I have been inspired to implement some beauty resolutions to really improve the way I use makeup
Image taken from Google
 

Finish a product!
Ever since I got into makeup I always like to try out new things or try out my moms products. I think sometimes I end up NOT using a product because I like it so much so I don't want it to run out...psychologically insane. I honestly can think of only 2 products that I have ever come close to finishing. I think using up a product in its entirety should be implemented because makeup ends up expiring especially with creams that dry up.

Learn to contour!
I can never for the life of me contour my face. I am always afraid of doing a bad job so I will start practicing more. 


Toss out the old!
Before beauty blogging I didn't really own a wide selection of products. I used my moms lipsticks and blushes which were ancient.  So with the start of the new year I have already tossed out a few lipsticks, eyeshadows and blushes.


Keep it clean!
Hygiene. We never really think about the germs and bacteria in our makeup. Just like in science, if we use a product and start double dipping into them or use our fingers we are adding more and more germs to our makeup. So I will definitely keep a makeup sponge to whip off my brush with.


Moisturize those nails!
Before blogging I never took care of my nails. When I started doing nails of the day I noticed my cuticles were extremely dry and were all over my nailbed. I have started to make a habit of applying some olive oil on my cuticles before I go to sleep which is helping really well. 


Files nails every week!
Again, I never took care of my nails and even now my nails are chipping which is due to not filing them. So at least once a week I want to keep them in a neat shape.




So I hope that my beauty resolutions gave you all some ideas! What are some resolutions that you are planning on implementing this year?
