Face of Australia Duo's in Minx and Leopardess



If you follow me on Instagram, then you would of seen that a couple days ago I brought these Face of Australia Duo's for $9.95 each from Priceline. I got suckered in by the packaging. Now I wish I hadn't.
I was looking more for Retail Blushes and Contours as I really don't own many from Retail lines.
I have like one Revlon Blush, and an Australis and Revlon Highlighter. That's it.
When I seen these, I loved the packaging, and the colours looked great in the pan.
The pink one, was a pink I wouldn't normally choose, and I brought the contour as I normally just don't contour but I want to start trying it again.

Minx

Blush and Highlight Kit


Out of the two, I am really disappointed in this duo.
Personally, with my skin colour, there isn't much colour pay off.
I was really not happy. The formulation is great, it is very smooth, and doesn't smell weird or overly potent, but I am extremely not happy about the colour.
I think this one would be better with fairer skin tones. Not tan or dark.

Leopardess

Contour and Highlight Kit


Leopardess is a lot better than Minx.
Not overly pigmentented but a lot better than the blush and highlight duo.
This is perfect for the beginner who is learning contour or just for a light contour.
With the highlight, I love it! The highlight in Leopardess almost compensates for the lack of pigmentation in both of the duo's. So smooth in application, and reflects light very well. I am really happy with the Leopardess Duo.

Once again, thank-you for reading everyone, and have a good day!

Revlon Photoready Skinlights Face Illuminator in 200 Pink Light


I love this face Illumnator.
It is really good for highlighting.
I do apply this after I have applied foundation.


It may look like an overkill in sparkle and too light for me.
But once applied it isn't as strong, and blends really well.

All I simply do is get some out onto the back of my hand.
Dip my finger into it, and dab it on the area's I want (a little goes a long way)
and blend it with my finger then follow with blending with a fluffy brush.

This product is really good, and will most likely last me a year, because there is a huge amount of product, I don't wear makeup regularly as my skin gets irritated, and a little goes a very long way as I stated before.

definitely a 5/5 for this product.

How to Highlight the Face xx

 
 
 
I was going to make my own version of this a little while ago, but decided to share a video by thebeautiful Kandee Johnson, whom is amazing at explaining everything there is to know about make-up. Lets just say she is amazing!
Everytime I do my make-up, I wear a bit of highlighter. It gives a glow to the face and gives off radiance and a healthy glow :)
 
The product that is use is:
 
Sorry that I didn't use my own photo, as I can't bothered taking my own.
But I have this in Pearl. As Kandee said, the more expensive ranges are of a better quality, but for a cheap one, this is a nice consistence, and the glittery particles are average is size :)
It is $14.95 at Australis Online Store
 
So watch the video, and try it on yourself :) xxx
