Tarte Buffer Brush Dupe - Review !!!

Hi Girlz,

Today I am back with another amazing bargain from ebay to share it with you all and it is the dupe for the ‘Tarte Bamboo Buffer Brush’



Price – The Original brush retails for $34 but the dupe is for $3.81 isn't that amazing and it also has Tarte imprinted on the handle.You can CLICK HERE for purchase.



Quality- I do not own the original but have felt the bristle’s at Sephora a couple of times and believe me you guys they feel exactly the same.The bristle’s are very densely packed and are super soft .The brush is very sturdy.I have washed this brush multiple times and have not notice any shedding while washing or application.The Ferrule of the brush is still holding strong.



Application- I used this brush to apply my Loreal Lumi foundation and it did an amazing job and applied the foundation evenly with no streakiness whatsoever.Since it is a fairly large size brush it covers a big area of the face at one time and thus makes application of foundation very quick and easy.I have also applied powder foundation with it and it did apply the powder pretty evenly.

RRWS Rating- 10/10 since I did not find anything that I could change about this brush.

Overall I really recommend you guys to give this brush a shot ,it being so budget friendly.I really don’t think that you have to spend 100 of dollars on brushes when you can achieve the same look with decently priced brushes.

That’s it for this you guys,till my next,have a fantastic 4th of july.

P.S - The brush was purchased by my own money and opinions expressed are purely based on my experience.

MakeupBrushes Drying Method-Easy,Budget Friendly,Safe Way !!

Hi Girlz,

Today i am back with a quick post on how to dry your brushes on a budget without damaging them .We often lay the brushes on a towel after washing or we tend to make them stand up upside down leaning against a wall.What i observed in both these methods is -

  • In the First Case-laying the brushes on a towel after washing-resulted in some of the water going back in the ferrule of the brush ,thus affecting the glue and in turn loosening the ferrule.Ultimately destroying the brush.
  • In the second case-make them stand up upside down leaning against a wall-all the pressure was coming on the bristles of my brushes ,thus affecting and ruining the bristles.
Ultimately one day i came up this solution.As shown in the picture below i use rubber bands to hold the brushes upside down against a towel drying bar.





I just stretch the rubber-band under the bar and hold the brush in the front end of the band.Then i stretch the other end of the rubber band from behind the bar to go over the brush in the front of the bar,thus holding the brush tightly with the bar in an upside down position.






In this manner i dry my brushes without damaging the bristles or the ferrule of the brushes.
I have been doing this technique at home as well as in hotels when i am travelling. 

That's it for this one,till my next,do let me know if you try this technique in the comments below or tag me on Instagram.

Keep Smiling,

The Bargains -Benjabelle Brush Drying Tree Dupe !!

Hi beauties,

Today i have found an amazing dupe which i want to share with you guys.I have partly shared it with you in my Wish list which you can check out by clicking here.So i finally got all the products i have been eyeing over and one of them is the 'Brush Tree'

This brush tree is clearly a dupe for the 'Benjabelle Brush Drying Tree ' . Lets look into the tree i got from Dress Link.Click here to have a look.

It has three parts as you can see in the picture's.



Part A goes in Part B and then they are both attached to part c.Its super easy to put them together.





  • The tree is made of Acrylic and Rubber.
  • It has slots for drying 4 large,4 medium and 12 thin brushes.
  • The slots hold the brushes well in place at the time of drying.
  • Major advantage is since the brushes are dried upside down it prevents water seeping into the ferrule of the brush.
  • It is available at Dresslink.com for $ 10.34 which is fraction of the price of the Benjabelle brush tree.
  • Its can be safely collapsed for storage purposes.
  • It is not as pretty as the Benjabelle Brush tree but totally solves the purpose.
All in all it perform the job very well and is totally worth it.

That's it for this one,till my very next,love to all.

Review and Swatches of the Ellefar Princess Chiffon Eyeshadow Quad !!

Hi Girlz,

Today i am sharing my thoughts on the 'Ellefar Princess Chiffon Eyeshadow Quad' that i bought from Daiso Japan Store in my haul.If you want to see my haul you can click here.

Price- I got this for $1.50 from Daiso Japan Store.



Packaging-It has super cute packaging as you can see in the pictures.The only thing i don't like about is that the eyeshadow colors have no name.Also the Company name is printed on the plastic packaging only.Once you rip it off the actual eyeshadow quad has no name on it.




Product-It comes with a sponge tip applicator which is larger on one end than the other end.I really like it for putting the highlighting shades in the inner corner of my eyes.



The quad has all shimmery eyeshadows.Top left to right we have a white color and a creamy champagne color.Bottom left to right we have Bronze color and a grey color with blue undertones.
All the colors are soft to touch but the top two are a little chalky for my liking.
Also the top two colors are not that pigmented but the bottom two are pigmented and are my favorite in this quad.
All the colors are easily blendable .They last on the lids with a primer for about 4 to 5 hours.


All in all its a decent quad for the price you pay but obviously not a must have.

That's it for this short and sweet review,till my next,stay healthy and happy.

Rashi.

LA Colors Eyeshadow Palette In Trendy-Review !!!

Hi Girls,

Today ,as the tittle suggests, i am sharing my thoughts over the $1 'Trendy' eye shadow palette from LA Colors.I got this recently from the dollar tree as you must have seen in my dollar tree haul.If you missed on that you can check it out by clicking here.

I wore this palette twice over the last weekend.So lets get into what i think about this palette.

Firstly,there are 12 colors in this palette and all are neutral colors as you can see in the pic below.









The palette comes with a regular two ended sponge applicator and a plastic protective sheet over the eyeshadows.



Packaging

This is a very light in weight palette and the packaging is very cheaply made.Keeping in mind it is just for a $1 i do not mind the packaging as i was more keen on the product inside.The top cover is so light that if you drop it a few times it would definitely shatter into pieces.

Swatches 

Below is a picture of the swatches of all the colors without any primer.

First Row from the Top of the palette-Colors from Left to right.



Second row from Left to Right-



Third row from Left to Right-


Some of the colors are extremely similar when swatched.

As you may be able to see the colors have a decent pigmentation if not intense but i like to use the palette on no makeup ,makeup days or on days where you want to go subtle on eye-makeup and want to go with bold lips.This palette has no shimmer or glitter but the eyeshadows have a subtle sheen to them which i really like.

You can intensify the pigmentation of the eyeshadow colors a little if applied over a primer .

This palette can be good for beginners keeping in mind the price.The eyeshadows are easily blendable though but do not last for a long time.They lasted for 3 to 4 hours.

Conclusion

Pros:-


  • Super affordable -just for $1
  • Decent Pigmentation
  • Easily available at dollar tree
  • Wide variety of colors
  • Excellent for beginners or makeup lovers on a budget
  • Good for minimal makeup days 
  • Compact and lightweight ,so good for travelling

Cons-


  • Cheap packaging
  • Last only for 3 to 4 hours

All in all,its a good bang for your buck,specially if you are on a budget. The only thing I don't understand is why have they kept the name of this palette as 'Trendy' as there is nothing trendy about the colors.. ;)).I would definitely recommend it to try .For $1 its a decent palette to add to your collection.

That's it for this one,till my very next,wrap yourself with warmth of love and affection.

Stay healthy,
Cheers
Rashi

ColourPop eyeshadows mini haul and review !!!

Hi Girls,

Today i am sharing with you all my recent Colourpop eyeshadows haul .I have been hearing really good reviews about these eyeshadows from youtubers and fellow bloggers .So finally decided to give them a try .As i was not sure if will be able to work with a different type of texture of eyeshadows i ordered only two.




When you first receive them they have a really nice snake print on them but it lasts only till the first touch on them.The texture of these eyeshadows is really soft and creamy.I would compare them to the maybelline dream bouncy blush.The moment you touch them ,they are so soft,that you will want to touch them again and again.I love it.

So the shades that i got are 'Sequin' and 'So Quiche ' .
Sequin is a beautiful penny like shade with gold and silver glitters.Its a beautiful rose gold shade.




So quiche is a unique soft olive shade which has dual chrome metallic finish with gold and pink reflective glitters.



Swatches on my arm without a primer and without flash.From left to right sequin and So quiche.


Swatches with flash.




These shades are so unique that i don't have anything like these in my collection.

Price-The price of these eyeshadows are $5 each.Also i got a $5 off coupon code.The $5 off offer is still valid on their website if you sign up with your email.They also have free shipping on orders of $30 or more.

Application-As per the instruction card that you get with these shadows ,it is advised that you use your fingers or a synthetic brush for the application.As for me,i used my fingers and it worked great.These shadows have great pigmentation and lasted for all day.I used it only on the moving part of my eyelids and used matte shadows in the crease and outer V.

To sum up :-

  • Apply easily 
  • Super affordable
  • They have some really unique and beautiful shades.
  • Cruelty free i.e no animal testing.
  • It has a creamy texture with almost no fall out.
  • After applying do blend them right away otherwise they tend to set .
  • Hands are the best tool to apply them.
  • The colors are so intense that you don't need a primer.
  • You have to keep their containers tight so that do not dry up.


Overall,I loved these eyeshadows and they are super gorgeous colors.I am looking forward to try some more products from this company.

That's it for this post,till my very next,take good care of yourself so that you can take care of your loved one's .

Cheers,
Rashi

The Bargains -Part1(a)-Ebay beauty bargains !!!

Hi Girlz,

From today i am starting a new series on my blog called 'The Bargains' .As the tittle suggests it will be all about the different bargains on different products i come across whether in drugstore or online.So today ,part 1(a), is about the Ebay beauty bargains.I will continue this series and will be adding sub-parts to it as i continue to hunt for more and more bargains.Part 1 will always be exclusive to Ebay bargains of any kind.I will further be adding sub parts as we continue,example.. Part1(b),Part1(c) and so on.I will be changing it to Part 2 only if the bargain is from any other place other than ebay.Hope you got it.So if you wanna have a look at only the ebay bargains you can click on part 1 in the labels section.

So today's Ebay beauty bargain is about these amazing makeup brushes i bought from ebay two years ago when i was a newbie in the makeup world.I wanted all the fancy stuff for makeup but still was not prepared to spend 100 of dollars on makeup brushes,since i was in the learning phase.So i decided to buy some makeup brushes from eBay and started searching eBay.I finally came accross these and bought these 4 brushes for $11.



Closer Pics 

  • Flat Top Kabuki Brush




Side Angle




  • Round Top Kabuki brush



I could not find the same seller from whom i purchased but now there are tons of sellers selling these kind of brushes at +eBay .Just attaching a link of one of the random sellers for you guys.You can click here to have a look.

Pros :-

  • Professional Looking
  • Densely packed(You can see in the close up pics above )
  • Uber soft
  • Inexpensive as compared to other brands in the market keeping in mind their quality.
  • They do not shed at all i would say .I wash them pretty often.
  • Even after two years they are still going strong.
  • Still love to use them.
  • Apply makeup amazingly.
  • Available in variety of colors.

Cons :-
  • Take at least three to four weeks to arrive since they are shipped from China.
  • They smell horrible when they arrive but after first wash they do not smell at all.

All in all, i love to use them.Even after having a decent experience on makeup application now , i do not feel the need of buying big brand name makeup brushes , as these solve the purpose.

That's it for this post.I hope you like my new series.Please leave your inputs in the comment section below.Till my very next,always remember to count your blessings and thank GOD.

Thank You all for your support,
Rashi
