Rimmel London's Stay Matte Pressed Powder Review (Recommended product for *Makeup Diaries*)

Hello everyone! Today I'm going to be reviewing a pressed powder (duh right ^ ?) 
 So what this product claims..VV          (pictures at the end!! :) (No photos are mine..also the swatch pictures are not the color I have! :) I have..001 transparent     ;)

                                                     Claims:
  • Up to 5 hours natural shine control (with natural minerals)
  •  Helps minimize the appearance of pores. 


                          Do I believe thats what this product really does? Well...

 I think that this powder doesn't even have up to 5 hours of keeping the face matte. Maybe 3? I have to redo my face several times during the day (even if I packed on my first application) But when I reapply, I go ahead and use a heavier powder so it will help the horrible shiniess. This powder makes your face look smooth, but it can be easy to look chalky and cakey. I don't like this product very well but, if you don't have an oily face like mine, and you want natural, light, coverage, I say go for it. Its cheap ($ 3-5) and natural. Also it doesn't break ME out, but everyones different & I've heard different stories. Overall, if your face is oily/dry I wouldn't recommend. It will make the dry skin look noticeable! Other than that, if your a beginner, want something cheap, & natural looking coverage, you should be good! :) I also don't beleive they have a good color selection! 


Pros:

  • Price
  • (Can be) smooth & natural coverage (depends)
  • Doesn't break me out


Cons:
  • Doesn't keep face matte for long (also makes dry skin look noticeable)
  • (Can be) cakey/chalky (depends)
  • Not good color selection 

                                                                   Now for pictures!                                                              (see the dry patches..?)                    VVV
                                                           


                                                                                      Swatch:

Elf HD Blush Review

Hey guys I'm back with another review!! This one I been excited to do to see how the results turned out (because this product is sooo cheap!) 
 So I am excited to announce the results......(PICS & SWATCHES AT THE END..ALSO NOT MY PHOTOS..)


THIS BLUSH IS AMAZING! ALL DAY WEAR!! It will last you through school,work, etc. and you will not have to touch it up! At the end of the day it still looks fresh!! I TOTALLY RECOMMEND this product if you don't have time to touch up or hate to. I love how CONVENIENT the pump is. It is also SUPPPPER pigmented! AND it is ONLY 3 DOLLARS!! LOVEE! <3

 There are a few complications to this blush though..
     Getting back to its super pigmented..if your a beginner in makeup it might be extremely hard for you to control the spreading of the pigmentation on the cheeks. I don't have the darkest shade (which is pretty much encore but diva is the B R I G H T E S T shade) I have superstar like a rosy lightish pink and I still have to be EXTREMELY careful when applying so I won't end up looking unnatural and like a clown. (YOU ONLY NEED A VERRRRY SMALL DAB!)  Also after a few months of purchasing this product I noticed it started to look cracked..at least it still works fine. :P (I also wish elf would come out with more colors & go away from just all pink-purple colors and add some CORAL-light pink colors.) 

                                        OVERALL, I <3 THIS PRODUCT & WOULD DEFINETLY RECOMMEND!! <3 <3 
                                         
   PROS:
  • CHEAP -ONLY $3 (3 DOLLARS) (OH YEAH!)
  • AMAZING PIGMENTATION 
  • COLOR LAST ALL DAY & LOOKS FRESH (IT REALLY IS HD!)
  • NICE PACKAGING -WITH PUMP!


CONS:
  • Not very good SHADES of colors (mainly just pinks no corals)
  • Can easily look unnatural 
  • cracks in packaging 
   ALL SWATCHES:           



COLOR I HAVE: (SUPERSTAR)

(ALSO SEE HOW ITS A LITTLE CRACKED?)


& FINALLY..PACKAGING (THE PUMP):
