Beauty Review - REVLON'S PHOTO READY FOUNDATION

It's been a while since I've posted a beauty review and I want to stop that so every so often I will do my best more and more reviews on tons of beauty products that I have in my collection. I love makeup so doing reviews are fun, this could also be helpful to those who are considering getting this product or who just want to hear my personal opinion on the product. Today I am reviewing the Revlon 'Photo Ready' Foundation, I bought two shades 010 Carmel & 011 Cappuccino. Check out my review below, XO Andrea

REVIEW:

 *Revlon's States - For poreless, airbrushed skin in any light

 *My Overall Opinion - I bought these two last year in December and never used them so yesterday when I went to work I decided to test these two out. I ended up having to mix the two because Carmel was too light and then Cappuccino had a dark yet slight orange tint to it so I said whatever I'll just see you know and test them out. I do not like this foundation at all, I always prep my skin with a moisturizer and a setting spray anytime I put on foundation and in this case after prepping, you could visibly see some of my pores. I noticed that this foundation also has a tint of shimmer in it which I thought was okay but it appeared almost cakey as if I put on powder after applying the foundation and in my book that's a no-no. Now Revlon states this gives off an 'airbrushed' finished and I didn't get that effect neither did I see my a glow on my face after wearing this product for an hour.Being that my skin tone is darker I also noticed the color shade is off when it comes to the darker shades but that's just my opinion. What I do like about this foundation however is that it's liquid and it has a pump. The pump actually gives you a dime size amount which to me is perfect, just enough! This product is also SPF 20 and being that it's 1. FL OZ, you get a nice amount of product. Personally, this product didn't cut it for me and I don't ever plan to purchase this foundation again. Check out more picture below and my overall conclusion! XO

Get Beyoncé's Glowing 20/20 Makeup Look.

Beyoncé sat down with Katie Couric on for her recent interview on  20/20 to talk about her latest career ventures and excitement surrounding her pregnancy. Beyoncé, who is known for her glowy skin, looked as stunning as ever. And it's thanks in part to makeup artist Mally Roncal, who created this look. To get the look:

1. Use concealer to brighten under the eyes and around any areas that need extra help.
2. Use a highlighter and contour powder: the highlighter lifts the face and illuminates the eye area, and the contour powder slims the face.
3. For the eyes, Roncal used the creamy, shimmery shadow from her Mally Beauty My Favorite Things Collection ($60), available starting this Friday on QVC. She then followed with a smudgeproof eyeliner and volumizing mascara.
4. And for glossy, "Beyoncé-worthy lips," Roncal used her High Shine Liquid Lipstick, also from the upcoming collection.

My July Favorites 2011! Kinda-Late

I know it's kind of late but here are my beauty favorites from the month of July.

 

E.L.F Hypershine Lip gloss in Flirt $1

E.L.F Healthy Glow Bronzing Powder in Warm Tan $1, I love this bronzer because it's a substitute the days I don't want to were blush and gives off the bronzed goddess look which I love.

Nivea Creme for $1, This is my favorite Moisturizer 

Almay One coat Nourishing Mascara in Black, I got mines from Big Lots for $3.50 compared to CVS or Wall-mart for $6.50 and this mascara only has one side of bristles which makes it easier to apply and gives 2X Volume without wearing false eyelashes which is great.

                                                                            

Maybelline Expert Wear Blush in Pinch of Coral, which I also got from Big Lots for only $1.50 and I think they don't even sell this anymore but I love this color it's perfect for summer and year around and not bad for the price.
