Askmewhats Reviews: Inuovi Colours D36 in Lollipop

Great day everyone! How's the middle part of the week treating you? Me, I've been looking stressed the past few weeks because of some challenges that came my way, though I survived it, my face is still recovering and getting back to its LIFE! In times like these, the least cosmetics used on the face is the best option! So I've been using mostly blushes and lipsticks the past few days just to give myself a temporary face lift! Getting the right kind of "blush" and "glow" helps a lot!

I have been using iNuovi Colours D36 in Lollipop the past few days! So it's time for me to share what's on my mind for this "space aged" looking product :D

Pros

  • pigmented
  • natural looking
  • multi-functional, can be used as eyeshadow and blush
  • can be depotted and can fit an ELIANTO e/s palette
  • color looks very natural on cheeks
  • lasts quite sometime, no need to retouch too much
  • very soft on skin when applied, the pressed pigment is finely milled
  • I like it that this blush is not too matte and not too shimmery
Cons
  • not readily available locally! iNuovi, come to the Philippines please! :P
  • packaging! I had a hard time putting this inside the traincase! Too bulky

Overall

I love blush colors that looks natural! I like the "inner glow" instead of the "POW! Look at me! I'm wearing a blush" kind of cheeks!

Lollipop is such a sweet color, it's a peachy color with a very tiny hint of "shimmer" that's almost invisible to the eye but came out really soft and natural on photos!


Tips
  • apply this using a big fan brush for lighter glow and a blush brush for a nice "blush" on the apples of the cheeks
  • swirl once or twice, do not swirl too much as you don't need that much of a blusher!
  • depot this if you may to save up storage space
  • always make sure to apply powder or foundation all over face before applying blush to make the overall look neat
  • for fairer skin: Apply sparingly for a natural look, apply more to get a more dramatic blush
  • for darker skin: Apply more for the Lollipop shade to show up.
Will I repurchase?

YES! If I chance up their store again, I will definitely repurchase!

  3. pretty! I get a similar effect with Chiffon too :) You should try their cheekblush (cream blush). It's amazing stuff. I personally like that more than the D36. The glow is superb!

  7. Inuovi was already available before in the Philippines...in First Aid in Greenbelt. I don't know if they already discontinued it. I used the brand way back in college! Their blushes are very pretty, I remember Kinny Salas posting an article about it. :)

  24. The packaging pretty cute and looks very natural peach on you! Great stuff!

  25. I have never heard about Inuovi, but it looks really nice. The packaging is also very cute.

    I like the color a lot, since I prefer sheer and bright colors for my cheeks. It looks very nice on your fair skin, Nikki!

    My favorite makeup item this week (and probably for the rest of the coming 2 months that I'm working at the restaurant) are concealer, (cream shadow), mascara, blush and lipstick. :) Because they are the essential makeup items that I'd never skip, hehe...

  32. Inuovi was here before. Yung First Aid at Greenbelt3 used to carry Inuovi. When they were closing out I was able to buy some products at almost 80% off. I still have the eyeliner i bought there and that's one of my favorite pencil liners.

  33. Thanks Anonymous, actually i was able to confirm it with the iNuovi people and you're right, we have a distributor before who distributes iNuovi products but I guess it didn't work out before, they came in at the wrong time! :D
