MUFE (makeupforever) Artist Plexi Gloss: Review/Swatch

Hello Beauties

Make Up For Ever recently launch a entire new range of lip gloss " Artist Plexi-Gloss" which is available in 35 shades.Being beauty junkie we wanted to try some of the shades but we end up buying one shade only.

                                                     shade no 204

The lip gloss comes with Superflex applicator, which allows you to apply the product in one swipe.

Now coming to the actual product.
We like it how easily it glides on plus it is too Pigmented.The staying power is also great.The texture of lip gloss is lightweight, bit sticky and ultra shining.But the downside is they are bit expensive.


Retail for AED 99
Available across all Sephora (UAE) and MUFE counters

OLAY Regenerist Advanced Anti-Ageing Cleansing System

Hello Beauties

Today I will be doing review on the new Olay Cleanser. I got mine from Carrefour for Aed 137 which is amazing price comparatively to clarisonic which is around 700 + Aed. Coming back to the review, it's Kit which comes with 2 speed rotating system (water resistant), 1unique gentle brush head, 2 AA battery, 1deluxe size skin perfecting cleanser.

Firstly insert the battery at the bottom of the device,then place the brush head ( it is recommended to replace the brush head every 3 month plus you can buy it separately). The device has two button,top one is for on/off, the down button is for speed control.

How do I use it
-  I will remove my makeup first with makeup remover wipes then I will wet my face and brush.
-  I will then apply the face cleanser( you can use any cleanser or you can try cleanser given in the kit) and turn on the device
- Move the brush around slowly to another section of the face after every 15 sec.
- I use it at night every other day because I have sensitive skin. Every day exfoliation will be too much for my skin.

Do I Recommend it??
Yes,because it does what it claims plus it is very affordable and light weight.

Why do we love perfume samples ???

Hello Beauties

Recently we have started doing new thing, which is buying or getting it for free the new perfume sample, do you want to know why???

Why perfume samples???? 

1. We love perfumes and every month there will be new perfume in the market and we want try as many as possible, but full size bottle can be too                   expensive sometimes.
2. The body chemistry can make a perfume smell slightly different on each person. 
3. While buying new perfume, we always overdo so many samples at the store that we end up purchasing the scent in combination with other scent that we don't enjoy later.
4. Buying scent unsniffed online can be very tricky too.

Types of perfume samples.
 Roller-balls,mini bottle & postcard form.

How to get the samples???
1. Buy samples online (don't worry it is cheap)
2. Perfume shop
3. Magazines
4. Subscription beauty/perfume boxes

We hope this post was helpful, Happy sampling :D

GLAMGALS COSMETICS PRODUCTS : REVIEW

Hello Everyone 

Today I will be reviewing few products from GlamGals Cosmetics 

Lets start off with the Eye shadow Base :)

It comes in a little cute transparent pump bottle which makes it easier to get the product as desired on your finger tip. I used to hate wearing eyeliner and eye shadow because no matter what I did my eyelids got so oily that all of it would ware off. But, with this that's all history. It really does work. I just take my finger and  then apply the product directly to my lids and brow bone, and my eye shadow stays in place the whole day ;) the consistency is pretty glue-like at the beginning but as you blend, it dries off completely without any hassle. It has a smell to it but that too dissipates very quick. You only need a small amount and it goes a long long way. A small dab covers both eyelids. It dries very easily and quickly. I have very sensitive skin and my eye skin area is no different. I have never had any reaction or irritation due to this product.

Retails for AED 35

Liquid Metal Eye shadow.

I love this eye shadow which is great for a bold, metallic eye look just on its own, but it looks especially stunning when applied to the eyelid with a brown color in the crease. This stuff is gorgeous, with the metallic shine it gives, it stays true to its name. It provides the advantage of going as sheer as you want it, and you can build up with the wand provided depending on whether its used for casual day wear or evening wear. 

For day wear, a touch of the product suffices, and then i spread it a bit using my little finger. Very easy and convenient on the go. They truly deliver a shimmery effect, unlike others that merely claim to be shimmery

Retails for AED 30

Dual Mascara ( Mascara+ Liner)

The main benefit we derive from this certain product is two most essential eye makeup tools in 1!!!!!! I really like the way this mascara makes my lashes look. No clumps, and keeps my lashes curled. The only thing I don't like is the difficulty in removing it. It's so thick that it flakes and gets in your eyes. You can build well with this mascara but not really flexible. Love this liquid eye liner! It's in blue color with a very fine brush which makes it very easy to get a clean sharp fine line, including a little 'cat eye' flick.Dries fast but not too fast. It doesn't smudge on my upper eye area, and gives a matte finish. Goes on smoothly, sometimes a little patchy, but if you leave it to dry properly you can go back over it to darken it up.

Retails for AED 35

Available at Dubai City Center

Hope you all liked this review :)

MAX FACTORX "FACEFINITY PRIMER" Review

Hello Beauties

Today I will be reviewing  "Max FactorX Facefinity All Day Primer SPF 20"

Let's start with the packaging, I love the glass pump bottle, this makes dispensing the perfect amount of product easy and it is hygienic too. Two pump should be enough for your entire face.I did notice my foundation and the rest of my makeup  stayed longer in place and that my face remained oil-free for a noticeable longer time. The SPF is a nice added bonus, though I wouldn't go relying on this for adequate sun protection, because it can't possibly be enough product to expect any huge SPF benefits. But, it is a nice added bonus to know there is some sun protection overall. 

The texture of the primer kind of feels like liquid at first, but in a few seconds the product dries down perfectly matte very quickly. Once it sets, it's virtually undetectable on my skin and doesn't feel heavy at all. It has an ok scent, almost like glue honestly, but the scent dissipates entirely once the product has set in. I use this primer either under or mixed with my foundation. As though  my skin is towards the scale of  dry side, I am not so fond of the matte finish but with a moisturizer underneath, and then applying this primer, my face gives a smooth clean finish. Thereby, I totally recommend this product to those who have oily skin or combination skin types.

JUICE DELIGHT : Review

Hello Loveliess

So the count down begins until Eid Ul Adha, I'm sure all of you want to look your best that day so I think this is the perfect time to Review Juice Delight.

Detox? What's that supposed to mean??? Let me tell you, Detox basically means internal cleansing. So these juices technically cleanses, that help the body to regenerate and restore its natural equilibrium gently. And let me tell you ladies, it's not only healthy but delicious too!!! They are packed full of vitamins, minerals, living enzymes, trace elements helping you to stay slim and healthy plus there are different bottles that serve different purposes.

Juice Delight Menu.

Lemonade [apple, water, lime, mint], Orange detox [apple, carrot, fenmel, orange, lemon],  Pink detox [apple, carrot, beetroot, grapes, strawberry, lemon], Green Detox [apple, zucchini, spinach, lemon, mint], Yellow Detox [apple, pineapple, zucchini, coconut water, lime, lemongrass] & Nut milk [cashews, water, cinnamon, vanilla aroma,stevia]

You will notice quick and best results if you completely depend upon the Detox Delight juices, but if you can't resist the urge to eat sometime like me :( then in that case there are some cheat snacks to help you :D

1 Apple.

Vegetable sticks ( carrots, celery, cucumber).

1/4 avacado with 1tsp linseed oil & lemon. 

10-15g untreated nuts or seeds ( cashew nuts, hazelnuts, walnuts, pumpkin seeds- no peanuts).

100g soy yogurts.

1-2 rice cakes.

1 cup warm veg broth. 

P.S. Don't exceed more than 3 items a day. 

During the process  you might notice a few symptoms such as headache, bloating, fatigue etc but that's nothing to panic about because your body is eliminating the waste products and toxins as a result this symptoms appear. 

I did a 3 day detox and I already feel so light & full energetic. 

The program isn't cheap, but  eating healthier usually isn't. Just the way we set aside money for purchasing high quality clothing and accessories, why not for our body too? I will 100% do this cleanse again & try there different program too,but when are you getting yours?

OLAY REVIEW : Regenerist Micro Sculpting Super Firming Serum & Anti-ageing Cream

Welcome Back Beauties

Today I will be reviewing none other than OLAY products :)

1) Micro-Sculpting Super firming Serum. 
Let's start off with the Packaging, I seriously love it, the color combination black and red just compliments each other pretty well, the pump bottle makes it both hygienic and really easy to apply eliminating mess. It has a pleasant smell, easy to blend and fast to absorb (time effective), so hydrating and not at all sticky plus leaves my face glowing Slightly. Usually serums are oily and have a very liquid like consistency but this certain product is more like a lotion or a moisturizer and that's what I loved about it. I also really like that it has mineral pigments which give off a glowy and radiant appearance.I like to apply it in the night on my forehead,jaw & on my neck. 

2) Olay Micro Sculpting Super Anti-ageing Cream.
I Basically love anything that say's anti ageing because who like to have saggy and old skin :)
Let Start with the Packing it is lovely just like the above product. Coming to the main product, the cream has a soft and gentle floral like smell to it! As I kept using it I could feel it deeply penetrating and hydrating my skin leaving it firm and smooth. The consistency here too was not at all greasy and was easy to blend with the thumb gently.I like to apply this at night after the above serum.

Overall I have been using both the products for the past one week & seriously I am liking it. My skin feel tight and it looks fresh plus glowy. I will definitely recommend it.

IMP NOTE :Make sure you do a patch test if you have sensitive skin and leave it for a couple of hours preferably overnight to see if it suits the skin & you don't get any pimples :D

GLAMGLOW "ThirstyCleanse" Daily Hydrating Cleanser

Hello Loves

Few months back our favorite cleanser Philosophy Purity got discontinued in Sephora and almost everywhere in Dubai which was totally shocking and sad news for us because we have been using it for almost 2 years. It was the PERFECT cleanser for us therefore we had no choice but to order it online.But mean while we had to use new cleanser or else been beauty blogger our face would have gone crazy. So we bought GLAMGLOW Thirstycleanser from sephora because it is perfect for dry & dehydrated skin which we have :(plus we love all GlamGlow mud masks and we trust the Brand.

According to Sephora site the Ingredient are:
rare Brazilian yellow clay to help to remineralize the skin, pure green coconut water to immediately boost skin for intense hydration, olive milk rich in olive lipids and proteins to replenish skin, and plumeria flower blossom extract rich in omega 3, 6, and 9 to restore the skin barrier function. Indian gooseberry revitalizes and restores natural skin clarity while TEAOXI® olive leaf powder delivers natural linoleic acid to maintain moisture

How to Use:
Apply one or two pumps on the fingertips and then gently apply Mud all over the face.Take little water in the hands and begin massaging the mud it will start the foaming lather then rinse with warm water.

We found our new perfect cleanser. Our face feels soft and hydrated every time when we use it.We had no dryness or breakouts Alhamdulilah with this cleanser.It also remove makeup easily. 
We will definitely purchase it again.Overall amazing cleanser,with good packaging and amazing smell OMG seriously,the only downside is that it is expensive that why we use it alternatively with Eslor cleanser( full review is on blog) but we hope soon they will sell sample size bottle as they do with mud mask tube so that everyone can try them and see how amazing it works.

LUSH "NEW' Solid Shampoo Bar Review

Hey Dolls
Welcome back!!!

In past we never tried any solid shampoo Bar because we were always hesitate and we had too many ???? for examples if it will work, will it create nice lather and how long will it last because your going to pay little more money here comparatively to your daily liquid shampoo.

But after trying this beauty for some times now we are kindly suprise and happy. It's easy to use, just wet the bar and rub between your hand and gently message it into the scalp, by doing this the bar will last longer too.
Note - But never leave it in shower always store it in tin container that also available at lush store.

Our Though
It thoroughly clean our hair by washing out all greasiness,dirt etc making our hair look fresh and clean.It creates nice lather and you don't need a lot. It didn't damage our hair but yes it did dry out uzma hair bit so in that case try conditioner afterwards.But the best part is we see no hair fall now.The only downside is the scent which is so strong but we don't mind because it doesn't linger in the hair after sometime.Its perfect gift for someone who loves travelling. If your having hair loss issue definitely try this shampoo.

Retails for AED 68

LUSH "Charisma Skin Tint" Review

Hello Angels

Welcome back!!!!
Today we will be Reviewing Lush Product "Charisma Skin Tint"

Let start with the Packaging:
It comes in small glass jar with good tied top lid which definitely makes it safe and of-course travel friendly.Overall nice packaging

Our Thoughts:
Charisma Skin Tint is gorgeous creamy bronzer shade. It is meant to be use under any foundation or your daily moisturizer to get that glowing complexion. The product is super pigmented, so little goes long way,it's not at all shimmery.But the best part is the formula which is amazing out of the world that makes product so easy to mix and blend. Beauties you can use it under any powder bronzer too for longer effect specially now during summer or on any special occasions.
We personally like it for two reason. Firstly because we have dry skin and it makes our skin look smoother and soft. Secondly we use on our cheekbones after our BB cream for that sun kissed glow.


Overall amazing product,worth of every penny and great for pale skin or anyone who loves contouring.Hope you all liked review & it was helpful.

Bourjois new "ROUGE EDITION AQUA LAQUE" : Review/Swatches

Hello Beauties

Recently Bourjois release there New ROUGE EDITION AQUA LAQUE. It is available in 8 colors from soft nudes to statement bright. According to the Bourjois site it will provide mirror like shine,intense color and 10 hr hydration.
We picked just two shades so see if would like it or not.

First color we pick is 02 rose on the rocks & the second color is 03 Brun croyable. The Packaging is same as Rouge Edition Velvet but the only difference is metallic shiny cap.Applicator is just the right size which makes it easy to apply and felt tip is very soft.

Moving on to the actual product now..
02 rose on the rock is nice nude pinkish color 03 Brun croyable is dark red color.

The texture of both is comfortable, watery-like, lightweight and shiny.The formula is not too sticky or not too slippery. We like it how easily it glides on.The only down side is the pigmentation which is okay not that great. Reapplication is must to get that perfect color & to have the glossy look.

Have you tried Bourjois AQUA LAQUE ???

Valentino "Valentina Pink" Perfume : Review

Hello Angels
Welcome Back to Glamourholik sisters!!!!

Lets started with Review :)
We Bought this perfume two weeks ago. It's the new limited edition Valentino perfume for womens called "Valentina Pink".

Packaging: It is all most similar to Valentino perfume "Valentina" but the only difference is the color of the bottle which is matte pink with one pink rose detailing on it. Overall the packaging it is very beautiful & sleek.

Smells like:
Top notes:Strawberry, Blackberry,Musk
Middle notes: Rose

Our thoughts:
The sillage of this perfume is very unique its between fruity/floral. At first it can be too strong scent for someone but hour later it will becomes soft floral scent plus longevity is just amazing. It is perfect for day time or night time. Definitely Perfect for summers. It looks stunning on my vanity.

OVERALL : If your looking for new scent then definitely try this, we rate it 5/5

"Summer Beauty Essential "

Hello Angels

We really hope your weekend is going wonderful so far!!!
The weather is way too hot now days in Dubai so we thought its the perfect time to talked about some of our summer beauty Essential.

Lets Start.....

Sunscreen: is must,wear on all the exposed areas of your body. Sunburn is not good its sign of skin damage that can lead to skin aging and skin cancer.Apply sunscreen 30 min before going out this give sunscreen time to be absorbed by your skin.

BB cream/Tinted Moisturizer: is best during summer if you want hydrating,lightweight and good coverage.

Concealer: use waterproof concealer if you have serious blemishes & dark circles or else u can skip this step because no one wants layer of makeup in summers

Setting powder: is must because it  will helps to keep your makeup all day without  looking too cakey and greasy.

Blush: Use only cream or liquid blush in summer to get natural blushing effect.

Mascara :use waterproof mascara only that means no smudging,no running and no clumping.

Lip Balm with SPF : is must to keep your lips soft and hydrated through out the day in summer because just like your face even your lips need protection from sun, you can even use lip balm with bit of tint for color.

Evian Spray : this help skin to re-hydrate and refresh in the hot humid summer without removing the makeup.

Lastly cute pairs of sunglasses & floral scene perfume. Hope you all liked this post. We would love to know your summer essential.

Stay gorgeous 
XOXO
