Mirenesse Cat Eyes liner giveaway and products review



a Rafflecopter giveaway

Giving away a Mirenesse Cat Eyes Liner in Havana Green- a $26 value!





And then here's the other products I have to show off!


Powder/Blush/Foundation Brush Set 3Pce

Brush set (value $71) These Taklon brushes are incredibly soft. They don't shed and they give excellent coverage. they're all the exact perfect density for their assigned jobs, if that makes sense. The foundation brush doesn't gloop your foundation on, the powder brush gives a perfect dusting without caking and the blush brush gives an even application with no streakiness or heavy look. They are my go to brushes now.


Magic Touch foundation (value $43) I use the shade vanilla which is perfect for my fair skin. It doesn't leave the dreaded application line; it blends in seamlessly. It doesn't irritate my sensitive skin and it makes pores seem to disappear. Gives a seriously airbrushed look! It has great coverage- normally I have to use concealer on my cheek that has scarring to cover up the redness, but not with this. it's buildable, so you can go as heavy or as light as you'd like (though this isn't for those who want next to nothing foundation.) many people have complained about the attached sponge applicator, but I think it gives a good application, you just have to wash it like you would any other applicator. plus, the sponge cap is removable. My one suggestion- they need to come out with darker shades. This doesn't affect albino me, but I have some beauty sisters out there that are too dark skinned for their available shades.
Magic Touch Moisture Foundation SPF15  40g

Airbrush Soft Focus Mineral Highlighter in Mata Hari (retail $44) This is gorgeous and this giant bottle will last forever. I will probably still be using this highlighter at my great grandchildren's high school graduations. So light and airy, it gives a beautiful, otherworldly glow.
Airbrush Minerals Soft Focus Blush Highlighter 11g


Airbrush Skin Clone Soft Focus Foundation (retail $44) I SOOO wanted to like this, but it looks exactly like a highlighter on me. It makes my skin look very sparkly and glittery. Ziggy played guitar.

Airbrush Minerals. Skin Clone Soft Focus Foundation 11g

Superlong Wear Gel mineral Color in Emerald (retail $35) Oh MAN do I love these! You can use them as a liner, as a shadow, as face paint! Super versatile, creamy and with an intense color payout. Once they've dried you are set for whatever the day or night has to throw at you. I would be totally happy to have one in every color.

Sponge Mattia Firming Eye Gel - OUCH!



You know what this stuff does? It firms and brightens! You know what else it does? It burns and makes you scream! Okay, seriously- this a really pricey brand so I was reluctant to not keep giving it a shot, but finally I had to chuck it. The pain just wasn't worth the results. The first time I put it on, at first I was very happy. There was an instant cooling sensation that was really soothing and I could feel the skin tightening. Within about a minute however, the cooling turned into an intensely painful burning sensation that literally made my eyes tear up. I thought maybe my skin just needed time to adjust to using a new eye product, but after a week of the same results, I finally gave up. Maybe it works great for others, but if you have sensitive skin, I recommend giving this a wide berth.
