Review: eos balm

Hello beautifuls,

I have a new blog post for you. A quick review on the eos balm :)
You may know that I did a post a year ago on the Balmi which I would consider to look similar to the eos but there are differences between the two. I actually prefer the eos 100% more. It is the ultimate lip balm. I love the flavors it comes in. I own Blueberry (Blueberry Acai). Which is my favorite smell ever. They are all very different, imaginative and smell so fruitful mmmm. I love the shape of the balm it fits perfectly between the fingers and the shape of the balm is more of an (almond) shape compared to the balmi which is more of a round shape. This makes it more easier to apply on your lips. 
The eos gives a matte (no product) texture when applied which is amazing. I haven't been able to find a product before the eos which gives that matte (natural) lip feeling and not that greasy feeling. So this product can be applied before you want to apply your lipstick. :))

Review: Smashbox Camera Ready BB Cream




I've been looking for a Beauty Balm Cream which I can rely on through the fall, as I feel I need something of a lighter coverage for everyday use. I came across a youtube guru who I adore and she really recommended this product so I decided to purchase one for myself. It was very much priced as a luxury brand. I was so excited to try it out. When it arrived it was wrapped up very nicely. They also gave me a free sample of their photo finish foundation primer which I thought was kind. The packaging itself is quite simple. I ordered the Camera Ready BB cream in light. The colour match was perfect. When I first used it, I applied the cream with a foundation brush. I found that the cream was actually quite thick in texture and you had to really work hard with the brush to blend it in. I would describe the texture to a Mac Studio Fix Foundation. The coverage was very good. My skin did look flawless. It felt lightweight and I did not get shiny all day. I would say it's best to apply with fingers as it's alot easier to blend the product in. I was a little disappointed as I was looking for a light coverage beauty balm. I wouldn't be discouraged to use it again. But if you are looking for a Beauty Balm with a heavy coverage I would recommend this product as it does do what it says and Iooks beautiful on but it wouldn't be my preference.

The everyday lip

If you are looking for a lip product which is more wearable on a daily basis but still giving you that bold look a lipstick can give you. I would recommend these beauties. Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain. A lightweight lipstain in an adorable chubby crayon. Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain gives you softer, smoother lips with a perfect flush of color that lasts all day. The balm stain hydrates and gives you the look of a lustre lipstick. They come in a variety of colors. My favourites would be Romantic and Crush. A summery red and a deep purple.

Balmi

Balmi. The round lip balm with cooling effect in mint. This is my favourite lip product. I discovered this product a few months ago and I can't stop using it. I love it so much. I love the packaging, the round shape makes it easy to apply. The cooling after effect sure makes my lips feel good. It also has SPF 15 so you can be sure your lips are protected. It comes in four flavours; Mint, strawberry, coconut and raspberry. The mint is my favourite as I feel it feels more cooling on the lips. Pop to your local Boots and purchase this lip balm. Try it out for yourself, it's truly amazing!
