Make Up For Ever Wild & Chic Aqua Eyes Collection- Limited Edition

If someone asked me what I wanted for Christmas I would put this baby at the top of my list!

I honestly have anywhere from two to five minutes in the morning (If I'm lucky) to do my makeup. Liner is a huge part of my routine. I need it to last long, not smudge or even fade. Nothing is more disturbing than looking at yourself four hours into your shift and noticing raccoon eyes. Definitely not cute. 

I'm proud to report back that MUFE Aqua Eyes Collection is honestly all I needed.

Waterproof, smudge-proof, and fade-proof, Aqua Eyes is an award-winning, creamy, long-lasting eyeliner that truly stays put.

This set contains:
- Full Size Aqua Eyes in Mat Black 0L (black)
- 5 x Travel-size Aqua Eyes in Dark Grey 21L (dark metallic grey), Iridescent Navy Blue 3L (navy blue sheen), Blue With Green Highlights 12L (metallic teal blue), Pearly Brown 2L (golden brown sheen), Purple 11L (metallic purple)

Aqua Eyes Liner Breakdown:

Consistency/ Color Pay off:

• Creamy- They glide on smoothly.
• Rich Vibrant colors- You don't need to go over your line twice.

 Endurance:

• Long Lasting - Over eight hours: They last my whole shift!
• Smudge-proof - It didn't smudge on my lid.

These liners truly live up to the hype. I've tried a lot of eyeliners and currently these are working out the best for me. I gravitate towards the black because I work in an office but it's good to know that I have colors to switch it up with on Friday and the weekends.

At the price of $40.00 CDN which equals $6.67 is a great deal for variation six great liners.

 SWATCHES:

Ladies this is a Limited Edition item! 

So rush to your local Sephora to pick one up ASAP.

Have you tried these liners before?

Make Up For Ever Smoky Lash Mascara Review

One of the most popular MUFE mascaras is their Smoky Lash formula ($22US). Last November at IMATS I got my hands on one for the discounted price of $15.00 CDN. Honestly I had so much mascaras open at the time, so I didn't open this one for a few months.

OMG!!!

I was totally missing out this mascara is freaking amazing!

A mascara that gives the lashes curl, volume, length, and intense pigment.

Lets face it most curl-lengthening-voluminous mascara clump after the first coat! I was able to do up to three coats and get a great look. Also the color was a true black, not grey like other mascaras.

Lashes with NO Mascara:

My lashes are pretty full & decent length

WITH Mascara:

Much better!

Overall:
I would definitely recommend this mascara. I know its not your typical drugstore mascara price but sometimes you need to treat yourself. The formula is creamy and not super wet. This makes building coats easier to achieve your desired look.

You can find this mascara at Sephora.

Foundation Series: Make Up For Ever - HD High Definition Foundation

I'm so excited to start my foundation series. At least once a month I will highlight a foundation that I truly love. Since I work a early 8-3 I don`t have time to put on apply foundation..so weekends is my time to play. The first foundation I fell in love with was Make Up For Ever - HD High Definition Foundation in 178.

If you follow me on twitter you will constantly hear me fave about this product. Yes, its pricey for the drugstore consumer but its really worth it.

Here is a picture of me wearing MUFE-HD in natural day light. Its so easy to rave about this product with flash but natural light is where you get to see the true beauty! As you can tell there is NO white cast..

The formula is light and I usually apply it with a sponge or my Sigma F80. Lastly my favorite setting powder when I`m using it is MAC mineralized finish natural deep dark.

Here is a picture with flash. As you can see again, NO white cast. Also the foundation is blendable! In the summer I use it with a wet sponge to get light coverage.

Have you used Make Up For Ever - HD High Definition Foundation? What do you think?
