New makeup- Velvet 59, Cargo Cosmetics, Whitening Lightning, Sedona lace and Gerard Cosmetics




Hi beauties! 

So i know a blog post has now been long overdue so i thought i would share with you all some exciting new makeup goodies i have recieved this week from some amazing brands! 

First up is Velvet 59 by Paris Manning. The concept behind this brand is all about capturing vintage glamour from a bygone era and bringing it to the Modern World, while sourcing sustainable, 100% vegan ingredients. 






The main thing that grabbed me the most was The Exotic lotus eyeshadow palette, it is so pretty has a great mixture of warm tone mattes and shimmer. I have swatched all the colours and they all performed pretty well, very pigmented, buttery, smooth and easy to blend, except for two of the shadows that were slightly difficult to work with and came off a little patchy- they were 'Princess of china' and 'saks plum'. The rest were very easy to use. 

Liquid lipsticks that dry matte, again very pigmented and beautiful colours, they didnt take too long to dry down which is great as i hate having to sit there with my mouth open waiting for it to dry lol. Also there is none of that sticky tacky feeling with these liquid lipsticks once dried they feel very comfortable and very long-lasting.

Bottom- liquid lipsticks in 'Kai-lea and Gigi'. I absoulutely loveee kai-lea!! Very popular shade, with everyone currently being obsessed with mauvey, rose tones. 

CARGO COSMETICS 


Cargo Cosmetics have well and truly established themselve as a professional makeup line that is used by the industry's top artists. The concept: simple, professional results that would be easy enough for all women to achieve.

Whatsmore cargo went on to launch a multitude of award winning products, formulations and innovative packaging which gave them worldwide recognition for being the most creative and innovative brands on the beauty scene.




The Essentials eyeshadow palette, comes with 12 neutral tone shadows, a dual end brush and a black eye pencil making this very travel friendly and popping in your handbag for on the go touch ups. 

The Texas lash mascara, which consists of a rather large and oversize brush. This heavily coats each lash for immediate volume in one application. 3D Polymer creates small tubes around the lashes for a flexible "lash-fattening" effect that won't flake or smudge. Builds lashes to the max without clumping or flaking.


Cargo Swimmables eye pencil is the ultra-creamy, richly pigmented formula that glides on effortlessly for precise lining. This also allows you to blend and smoke out your lashline and once set, this liner is waterproof and smudge proof! 


Now the product i was most intrigued about was the water resistant bronzer! Yes this bronzer claims to have a silky powder formula that glides over the skin for a subtle radiant glow and won't streak or fade; it's sweat-proof and weatherproof! Will definetly be putting this to use this summer! 


SEDONA LACE 



Moving on to sedona lace... I recieved two of thier quite popular brushes the FB05 contour brush and FB07 flat top foundation brush. I love how soft and great quality these brushes are, i have not had no issues with shredding and are generally very easy to use and blend.

 WHITENING LIGHTNING 



Whitening lightning dial a smile professional teeth whitening kit, pen and kit combo. Now i have tried this out and posted a review on my instagram page a while back and depending on what shade you are according to the little shade chart to begin with, you can expect to go atleast 2-3 shades lighter! 

The home kit contains 3 complete professional whitening treatments so you can achieve your ideal brightness quickly and effortlessly. Each session takes 20 minutes without the mess, inconvenience and sensitivity. 

The SUPER BOOSTER pen is the perfect product to maintain your results and works within 7-14 days. Apply before bedtime and whiten while you sleep. Just paint on the gel and say goodbye to your strips and trays.


GERARD COSMETICS 


The joy i feel when i recieve new makeup goodies from gerard cosmetics is like a kid in a candy shop! Hehe ;) 
No but seriously as i mentioned in my previous review on gerard cosmetics - this brand only gets better and better with every new launch and it is just amazing to see how far they have come!

So without rambling on too much.. Gerards have bought out new supreme lip cremes that come in a variety of enchanting shades. Supreme Lip Creme utilises a light-as-air formula to ensure precise application and weightless stay-on power, Coating the lips in a mousse-like emulsion, this revolutionary lip enhancing lipstick delivers truly opaque results without drying-out the lips.
