Bounty for The Body "JLO Miami Glow Body Lotion" ;-)

Today, i am sharing something very interseting, very girly & very fancy :) jennefer Lopez Miami Glow Body Lotion. I know you all must be familiar with JLO about thier girly, dreamy & fruity Fragrance. I had JLO's scent for a long period of time so from that time it was my priority. Well about this lotion i have alot to tell you :)
The best thing is that it was gifted me by my close one. 
The lotion is a rich body treatment especially in this season when you have to apply lotion again & again. Once applied you dont want to retouch. It will leave your skin like smooth, silky with soft touch. Regular use of this will make your skin feel like a petal of rose or some touch of satin silk. Eversince i have got this lotion i never leave home without applying this lotion and never sleeps without applying it on my arms and neck, & when i wake up in the morning the fragrance is as fresh as the breeze of the new morning. It really leaves a dewy finish. Also i have noticed in couple of weeks that it also improves the skin colour.
 As far as the packaging is concerned its in wide tubed form, Desired amount swiftly comes out of the bottle when squeezed. Design of the tube is also very stylish very spicy with the usage of bold colours, will definetly make your vanity table fancy & up ;-) Also the size is great , Contain 200ml which is quite enough & would last for ages.
Well, the sad part is that its not available in pakistan :( You will have to hunt about the product & price in internet. They have other stuff which features thier skin care, fragrance, colour cosmetics etc.
So, are you girls ready to prepare youself for getting addicted ;-) then try this out, i am sure you all would be loving it.
CHEERS!

Glamorama Shares Her Review About Her Artdeco Blushons!

"ARTDECO BLUSH REVIEW"



Artdeco is expensive and I have so many blushes that I hesitated to try this one. But pressure over took me plus curiosity made me want to know if this blush was really all that. It is. It is a translucent powder blush that is very subtle and very natural. I don't see much shimmer at all in this. I thought it was too light for me at first but, after trying it a few times, I saw the natural flush of my cheeks and realized it looked completely natural, not as if I were wearing blush. I have many, many blushes and some are really pigmented or not too natural looking. Others are too subtle. Some are just right. This one falls in the just right category.

Artdeco blushes come with a magnet on their bottom to be placed in their magnet boxes.

Number 16: This blush looks good on almost any skin tone. It is a soft pink (None of the pics do it justice) that gives a pinched cheek effect.. It is of RS.730/-. It's worth it. Plus a little is all I need all day.

Number 29 : I use this one for contouring of my cheeks , Its a bit brownish blush , but can wear it on cheeks too , for that extra oomph , and on-the-go look .. But for daily wear ,It's a bit darker for me .

Overall :
Very nice blushes with a good range , and variety of colour, I'm soon hunting for a peach blush by artdeco for Summer look : )



I am Loving It! Luscious " Mineral Eyeshadows"

LUSCIOUS's MINERAL EYESHADOWS IN  "SUMMER HOLIDAYS"
                                                                                                                  
  So today i am writing about Luscious precious mineral, eyeshadow which i recently bought online from thier site. As i am LUSCIOUS hard core fan so i just bought to try them out, but i was amazed to see the consistency of the powder also the quality, the pigment and the rich formula which give that STUNNING look to the eyes if even one shade is applied. I am too excited to share the reviews with you guys.

WHAT THE COMPANY SAYS:   " range of silky, pure mineral pigment eyeshadows, created with minerals for out-of-this-world color delivery. We all know that mineral pigment eyeshadows are the most sought after in the world due to the vibrant results they create in eye makeup.Pigments are also extremely expensive and each shade is normally sold separately by other beauty brands. Hundreds of Luscious fans have emailed me to complain about the high price of pure pigments and requested to create them for my brand. One of my main concerns is to keep Luscious products as affordable as possible, so our Precious Metals Pure Mineral Eyeshadows (3 shades in each set) will be available at a quarter of the price of a single shade sold by other beauty brands! Now that's what I call celebrating beauty, don't you agree? "



MY HONEST COMMENTS: I honestly find these powders very great very high pigmented and stay on stuff. The powder is mineralized formula that means its very safe sensitive skin & eyes. The consistency of the powder is thick and cream to powder kind of. While applied adequatly i am 100% sure you wont experiance much fall outs as compared to other powdered eyeshadows. Even with out applying primer or eyeshadow base you can get best result on eyes by having the same shade you see in 
the jar. 
You can do a combination with these 3 pretty shades. As i have applied the gold one on brow area, Pink one on eyelids and the turqouise one in lower eyelid area. Lined my eyes with luscious eyeliner and applied few coates of Luscious's incredible lash mascara  :)
Also you can apply any one of the beautifull shade on your eyelids it will also look pretty. As i have applied the 
turquoise one in my eyelid area and smudged the luscious's compact eyeshadow in "Smoke" on my upper and lower eyelids with pencil brush. And applied incredible lash mascara.


The colours are very pretty, Perfect for this season. They are really girly shades.            
   

I just love this colour, Its kind of sea green/Turqouise.



 This one is best for high lighting the brow area, can be applied as single shade on lids for day time. Its kind of earthy toned gold shade. Hint of this shade can add glow to the nose bridge, tear ducts and also cheek bones :)




This shade is also pretty. Its kind of peachy pink or "Gajri colour". Great for lid colour & hint of this shimmer can add glow to the cheeks:) 




There are 4 different combinations, each stackable pot featuring three gorgeous perfectly co-ordinated shades!   Enchanted summer holidays pop art star dust Each shade glides on like silk so you can use a single shade for a pop of colour on your eyes or layer each shade for ulta-glam looks.




I hope you girls liked my review about this beautifull recently launched product by Luscious cosmetics. The price of each stack of mineral eyeshadow is  575/- PKR . Its very reasonable that in this price we get three beautifull shade and trust me jar is large enough and would take ages to get finished ;-)

Cheers!

Glamorama Makeup & Beauty Shares Her Review About Her Favourite Primer "That Girl" Brightening Face Primer by Benefit

REVIEW : BENEFIT " THAT GAL" BRIGHTENING FACE PRIMER

REVIEW : BENEFIT " THAT GAL" BRIGHTENING FACE PRIMER

Hello , Glam girlz  , I hope you had a fantastic Sunday , Sorry about delay of this review , I had written it quite a few days back , but my dead speed net waz not allowing me to upload pictures ! ewww :P

Anyways , Finally I'm here with this wonder product, I have fallen in love with this.



My sister brought this from Dubai for me , it was of 138 DH.
On Benefit Cosmetics Website , its price is 28$.
It is not available anywhere in Pakistan :( , I know that's a sad thing for many of you... I am lucky I got this , and really this primer really brightens my skin , I just love it.


It comes in lovely twistable container , you have to roll , for exact amount of product you want , and it gives you only that much you want :) No extra product comes out , you got perfect control over it ;)


You just remove cap , and see many holes on top , from where the product is expelled out when you twist from bottom.




Once product is out of holes , you see it's just like any moisturizer , but it is not greasy at all.
It is pink , you can say liquid , but I would say it semi-solid , It's not too creamy , not too watery , not too think.. Perfect consistency , and superb texture .


It is pink , so it combats my yellow n pale skin very beautifully. I don't know it is brightening as it claims , or not , but it does make my skin very smooth and preps it for application of foundation.





Even without foundation , for a just-too-normal day , I just wear this , and dab my skin with little of loose powder , and I get perfect results. 



 It has a very lovely berry type , bubble gum like fragrance , which refreshens u :)
I absolutely recommend it.


PROS :
1. Lovely fragrance
2. Easily blendable
3. Great texture
4. Easy to use container

CONS :
1. Very high priced
2. Not available in Pakistan :(

I hope you like my review :) You can buy it HERE
