In our latest beauty review we look at Big Eyes Eyeliner black/white and Buff n Tuff Color Tattoo eyeshadow by Maybelline New York, and Nude Magique Blur Cream by L’Oreal Paris.
Big Eyes Eyeliner from Maybelline New York
Ok, well I’m happy to report that the Big Eyes Eyeliner in white/black from Maybelline New York is indeed a winner. It went on smoothly and had a great intensity and depth. At the end of the evening, smudging was minimal and ‘bleeding’ was non-existant. This was a huge success for me as now that I am getting older (37) and my skin is getting more delicate and wrinkled around the eyes, smudging and makeup bleeding into creases is a constant threat. I am happy to report that after a long evening of drinking, eating, mingling and laughing, Big Eyes Eyeliner stayed put.
Color Tattoo eyeshadow
Furthermore, I really love the Buff & Tuff Color Tattoo eyeshadow. It lived up to its promise and also stayed put, not gathering in any creases. I was able to get the desired coverage and intensity by applying with a damp brush. The eyeshadow and eyeliner combination helped me achieve a smokey yet metallic look.
L’Oreal Paris Nude Magique Blur Cream
The L’Oreal Paris Nude Magique Blur Cream IS MAGIC. I love it. Glides on and feels divine. Hard to tell if it actually does blur my imperfections but I feel like it does. It takes away any shine and it feels amazing at the very least.
I tried taking a photo at the end of the evening so that you could see the “tried and tested” result. It’s not a brilliant photo but I wanted to show that it all held together well despite a sometimes humid evening.
