Annabelle Cosmetics TWISTUP Retractable Lipstick Crayons in Royale

Back in June, I attended a Annabelle/ Marcelle Cosmetics launch. They're one of my favourite Canadian Beauty brands which I think is pigmented and has a vast amount of products to choose from.

Thank you to Rasilla who took this picture. Look at me pointing and drooling over their new setup.

Above everything, I fell in love with their new TWISTUP Retractable Lipstick Crayons. I adore lip crayons but I hate the fact that once they get dull you have to go on a wild goose hunt to find a sharpener to sharpen them. 

Thankfully, Annabelle has eliminated this issue with their new TWISTUPS.  Royale was the color which I fell in love with immediately! Has anyone noticed that I've been gravitating to fuchsia purples lately?!

This Lipstick is creamy and moisturizing.
I really want to try out the 11 other shades!

Would you wear this color?

Canadian Face of the Day featuring Annabelle & Marcelle

Happy Canada Day!

To Celebrate it's only right to share a look I did featuring Canadian brand Annabelle & Marcelle.

I shared this look in a previous post but now I will share details on what I used!

I have reviewed a lot of Annabelle & Marcelle products on my blog in the past. If someone asks me which products are definate must haves, I would recommend: Annabelle Smoothies & Marcelle Waterproof eyeliners.

The smoothies can be used as over the eye as a highlighter, shadow or liner. Once they set, they don't budge. To top it off they are crease free & waterproof.

 
The color I used is called melonade. I use it in my inner corners daily. I also blend it out as a highlighter.

 The waterproof eyeliners comes in 16 colors!
I chose Electric Blue because it compliments my skin tone.

Up-close

Happy Canada Day!

Annabelle and Marcelle Beauty Premier Party!

A few weeks ago Annabelle and Marcelle Cosmetics came to Toronto for their beauty premier for Spring 2012. I'm lucky enough to have gone to several beauty event in the past but this one was truly amazing. There was makeup, food, drinks and most importantly engagement from Marcelle/Annabelle with us(bloggers).

I loved how there was different modules set up to learn about each launch. The most popular table was the make your own lip gloss table. This idea was purely genius!  Every girl Well I wish I could design my own lip gloss and I'm ecstatic that I got that opportunity to do so. We were given two bottles of our special concoctions.

The beautiful Robin from Fashionsta514 was at the table explaining the whole process.

Look at how long the line got at one point!

Close up of the color wheel.

We had to pick a minimum of 4 colors to mix our lip glosses.

Another amazing idea was offering us makeup on a platter!

I can't tell you how tempting it was not to empty it all in your purse..LOL

On to the launches for Spring 2012!

Each product set up was accomanied by an Annbelle/Marcelle employee. 

It was really cool to get your answers answered on the spot.

Fall 2011 Beauty: Annabelle Smudgepaint in Skyline Review

I've been on the hunt for a Navy blue eyeliner since I seen this picture of Rihanna.

Every product I used so far to get this look has been either too dark, light,dry or just plain ugly. 

I gave up recently until I got the chance to try out Annabelle Smudgepaint in Skyline!

 

Creamy gel-shadow + liner with a velvety smooth, crease free, smudge free texture that will survive anything life throws at you! Its long-lasting waterproof formula glides on easily for a mess free look.

Liner Breakdown:

PROS: 

Multifunction- can be used as a liner and "shadow"

Rich pigmented color

Creamy & easy to use

Pretty long lasting

CONS:

Some may forget to clean the brush because it's built inside the handle.

Here is a picture of skyline. I didn't line my bottom lid heavily because I was going out to dinner.

Love this color on my skintone!

Ladies if you see these in stores.. pick them up!! 

I think these are definitely some of my Fall must haves.

Are you a fan of Navy blue eyeliner?
