Emaze lipstick- review, swatches

I've already introduced you all to Emaze Cosmetics, a lovely French brand with a number of promising products! Today, I'm reviewing a shade of Emaze lipsticks: 522 Plum berry. Emaze lipsticks are available in 40 shades...yes, that's a pretty vast collection!

Very true to its name, this shade is a deep berry color. Perfect for chilly weather, I'll write about its quality but let me come first on its packaging.

As you can see their beautiful packaging which can be compared some luxury brand's packaging. It comes in a black packaging box, inside the lipstick case, matte black, is also very beautiful with the brand name written boldly...the cap makes the case airtight & you can feel that while opening & closing it. Very secure, travel friendly packaging!

The formula is not completely matte but almost matte with slight shimmer. Though I don't usually admire a shimmery texture but in this lipstick you hardly notice the shimmers so it's nice. Though it looks quite shimmery in pictures but actually is not.The texture is quite moisturizing too so if you do not have very dry lips, can apply without any lip balm.

It is super pigmented, just one coat will be fine on your lips. The shade is quite deep so one coat of application will be perfect if you are not fond of too deep a shade.

I recently applied it on some occasions and came to know that it has an impressive lasting power too. It can last 5-6 hours easily without fading. I didn't notice any dirty patches even after the lipstick faded on my lips so it has tremendous lasting power.

Finally, I love this brand's lipstick, not only this product but also the other products from this brand, that my readers have read about. I would love to buy their products especially the lipsticks and glosses in some other shades. They are reasonably priced too!

Emaze Crushed eyeshadow- review, swatches

Sometimes a new brand wins your heart so badly that you want to test all its products. Emaze Cosmetics is one of those new brands that has impressed me a lot. I have reviewed one its products before and I'm happy that all my readers loved it. They all want to read about more products of this brand.

Today I have come up with another Emaze product and this time it's Emaze Mineral Eyeshadow Crushed which is purely high mineral powder.

These pigments are available in 20 lovely shades. I have picked Surge 233 no shade which is really a beautiful shade.

My first view is of course on the packaging and here without any hesitation I can say that Emaze Cosmetics can compete any high end brand. The pigment comes in black carton which has a wide vent through which you can see the pigment jar clearly. Inside it we find the lovely wide jar of crushed eye shadow with a wide black cap. When you open the cap you find the applicator with soft brush which is helpful for applying the pigment. The brush applicator concept is quite similar to Rouge Bunny Rouge Glitter Pigments but personally I prefer a sponge tip applicator. Anyways, I love the packaging which is light weight and travel friendly too.

The brush is pretty soft but I won't prefer using it for applying in the minute areas of my eyes

The texture is soft silky and very blend able. Emaze Cosmetics says that you can mix it with your body lotion for applying and highlighting the open areas of your body. I really love this idea because in this way, you can use your pigment in a different manner. You can mix it in your foundation too to give your face a sparkling effect.

The shade Surge 233 is a greenish golden which is really a pretty color. I can apply it with many dark shade pigments or use it alone on my lids to give them a natural sheen.

The shadow is highly pigmented and clearly noticeable on my lids without any primer. With primer it appears even more beautiful. The good thing is that these are all natural mineral based. The only problem that I faced with this shadow is it fall out. You should apply it a bit carefully due to fallout but I’ll not blame much because you face this problem with most of the loose powders. It does not settle into the crease which is really impressive. It’s very buildable too. I'm also impressed with its long lasting power, It stays on my lids for about 5-6 hours easily so I love its staying power. If you have oily skin, you should apply it after a good base on your lids.

Finally, It’s another product from Emaze Cosmetics which I love, I would love to try out some more shades from these eye shadows. It can easily remove with a cleanser, the good thing is that it’s all mineral based so you can apply without any hesitation for many hours. Apart from its quality, it’s quite reasonably priced. You can purchase it very easily because they ship worldwide.

I'll highly recommend it to my readers and friends.

Emaze lipgloss- review, swatches & photos

Hi pretty ladies,

Today I want introduce my readers to a new and exciting brand which is a purely a mineral makeup brand. They have some fantastic products but at first I want to say something about this new brand.

Emaze Cosmetics is a mineral makeup brand that I've met recently. This French brand offers a wide range of high quality cosmetic products. The vast majority of their products are 100% minerals, which do not clog the pores of the skin and helps to take care of your face.

There are specific products for sensitive and allergy-prone. It offers products such as eye shadows, foundations, blushes, bronzers, lipsticks, etc.. All pigments and rich with UVA and UVB protection.

They are hypoallergenic and noncomedogenic. Free talc, essential oils, preservatives and parabens. So they are rich in vitamin E and jojoba oil.

Now I'll come on to the product. Emaze Cosmetics has a wide range of lip colors, lip primer,lipsticks, lip glosses, lip lacquers to lip liners.

I really love their lip gloss range which is available in four formulas - cream (C), glitter (G), opal (O) and sheer (S). The company claims their product all to be Fragrance & Paraben free and enriched with Vitamin E that has healing and smoothing properties. Be emazed by our glossware lip-glosses that give extreme shine and long-lasting colour.

But at first let's talk about the packaging. Emaze Lip gloss comes in a black packaging box with the ingredient and product description. The packaging is simple but elegant. You can see the gloss shade even from outside the box through an oval shape hole which is made in the box for convenience.

Inside the box it's a simple round gloss tube with black cap.

The gloss applicator is the regular slanted tip sponge tip applicator that applies gloss evenly on the lips.

The texture of the lip gloss is a bit sticky but weightless, though a little runny. It glides easily on the lips to give intense color and nice medium coverage. Since the shade is quite deep, medium coverage is enough to cover up any pigmentation on the lips.

The lip gloss feels light and comfortable on the lips. It has a creamy texture which is moisturizing and gives a wet glossy finish to the lips. The lip gloss stays on the lips for a good 4-5 hrs! Most products that stay this long impart some degree of stickiness or dryness but this gloss feels moisturizing, light and comfortable. One small con is that since its a little runny, one needs to go over with the lips with the applicator 2-3 times for the color to look even.
