Flormar Silk Matte Lipstick in Undressed and Autumn Timber

I realized, I have 2 NEW Flormar Silk Matte Lipstick shades in my bag that I haven't used when I packed for a short staycation last week!  It was perfect timing so I decided to give them a roadtest!

My first from the brand is a very dark lip color called Hot Cocoa, most of you liked it, but Kyle doesn't!  He kept on asking "What happened to Mommy's lips?" whenever I wear it so I try to steer clear from dark shades whenever I'm with him.

So let's get back to the sweet side!

Let's Go To the Dark Side Shall We?

So I've been wearing nudes, pinks, MLBB shades for a couple of weeks now!  True to what my blog title says : "Let's go to the dark side shall we?"

Flormar Wet & Dry Compact Powder Review

Have you really tried using a 2-way foundation in 2 ways?
I usually don't!  But for this particular one from Flormar, I've used this both Wet and Dry and I have my final say!

Housed in a plain black matte packaging, I like it that it comes with a separate sponge compartment.  I got myself a Medium Caramel based from the shade on pan!  Thankfully, I picked the right shade!

Flormar Wet & Dry Compact Powder Says ---

The powder that can be use wet or dry according to the need provides a velvety smoothness and smooth look with its special formula, it is easy to apply with the silky texture, prevents the shine on the skin, covers skin defects such as pores and spots, stays on for a long time.

A Peach and Pink Blush is All You Need!

If there's such thing as "a must" blush to own, I highly recommend a peach blush and pink blush to save the day!

Of course, if you have excess budget, go for a bronzer to warm up those cheeks especially during summer season.

I recently chanced upon 2 blush colors from Flormar Cosmetics under the Satin Matte Blush line.  Matte blush isn't really my thing as I find them fake-looking.  I like them in matte but with a unique finish, somewhat Satin...and Flormar did it well for this particular line!

Flormar HD Invisible Cover Foundation Review

I knew Flormar cosmetics had it when I tried their Perfect Coverage Liquid Concealer, Lip Primer, etc... because they all earned positive reviews from me.

And after trying their newest HD Invisible Cover Foundation, that's when I thought this brand has to be OUT there!  For a drugstore brand that can deliver like High End cosmetics, you know that's what WE ALL WANT and I'm telling you, this is one of them!

Housed in a glass bottle with a couple of shades available, this can be an alternative foundation for those who are studying make up artistry and this can also be used on a professional level!

Of course, with the lightweight feel and texture, this is a nice daily foundation too!

Flormar Prime N' Lips on my lips!

When I've done Beauty Training with the brand Flormar, I was given a couple of makeup samples to test before I do the training.  One product that caught my attention is a lip product called Prime N' Lips.  It is said to be new in the market and I gave this a test immediately!

Thankfully, I got 3 lovely shades to try and I already found my daily favorite!  Can you spot it?

The Coconut, Monoi and Tahiti oils in its formula moisturize and protect your lips. Available in 8 different colors, Flormar lipstick will help you achieve a smooth lip make-up.

Flormar Lip Primer Review

I rubbed my eyes a couple of times when I saw this product.
I originally thought this is a concealer - check out the packaging and the shade!
But lo and behold!  The name clearly states LIP PRIMER and I knew I have to grab and test this out immediately!

What does a lip primer do?

At the back of my head I was thinking maybe, this helps blur out my pigmented lips and make it more even for lipsticks (especially light nude ones) will appear more even?

Also, I am expecting this product to help keep my lip product stay longer at the same time, keep the lips hydrated all through the day!

With a bit of research on Flomar website, I am right!  But the most important thing is, does it deliver?



Flormar Lip Primer Says ---

Lip Primer creates the best base for lip make-up. Thanks to the Vitamin E and panthenol in its formula, it protects the moisture balance of your lips, and make them look smooth. Apply Flormar lip primer to increase the effect of the lipstick prior to your lip make-up..Apply a fine layer of product on your lips before putting on make-up.

Flormar Perfect Coverage Liquid Concealer Review

So I've tried a couple of Flormar products and when I saw the Perfect Coverage Liquid Concealer, because, concealer really is a basic necessity of mine when it comes to base makeup!  

When you visit the Flormar counter, you'll see a LOT of makeup products but what made me pick this particular one up for review is because of the simple concealer packaging that I like.  A lipgloss-type of plastic tube packaging (transparent friends!) and....

A doe-foot applicator, which in my humble opinion, the BEST concealer applicator for liquid concealers!

Flormar Perfect Coverage Liquid Concealer Says ---

A creamy yet thin concealer that is easy to apply, provides a smooth, natural look and helps to temporarily reduce the appearance of dark circles or blemishes. This concealer also helps prevent premature signs of aging, while the covers and feels light on the skin.

How To Fix Your Brows --- First-timers Edition

I've had a couple of clients who literally prevents me from touching their brows.  One example closest to me that I can share is... *ahem* my sister-in-law!  (Hi Grace!) 

As much as I want to talk them out of their comfort zone, I respect their decision to keep their brows in their natural-looking state until they are ready.  So what do I do to keep their brows looking decent without makeing them uncomfortable?

I use Brow Mascaras!  The clear ones!  Just to "groom" and keep their brows in place.

One brand that I've relied on is from Flormar called Eyebrow Fixator Mascara.

"Eyebrow Fixator Mascara helps you shape your eyebrows easily by making your eyebrows fuller and makes your eye make-up long-lasting. It sets the shape after eyebrow powder or eyebrow pencil application. Providing the eyebrows with care thanks to Aloe Vera, sweet almond oil and panthenol in its formula, it also helps your eyebrows to a natural look with its transparent gel texture. You need to apply the Flormar eyebrow setter starting from the inside out. By doing so, your eyebrow shape will stay the same."

What's unique with the Brow Fixator from Flormar is their brush applicator.  As opposed to the usual "mascara wand", this comes in a short comb as shown on photo below making it easy to get into each brow strands.

Brands to Watch Out For from Bhagi's International

I was invited a couple of days ago experience, swatch, play and get-to know professional quality European and US brands distributed by Bhagi's International.  Yes AMW friends, Bhagi's International is a company to thank for because brands that we only get to read from our favorite international beauty bloggers are finally within reach!  Brands like Catrice Cosmetics, Deborah Milano, Essence Cosmetics, Flormar Cosmetics, Jordana USA and Il Salone.  Adding up to these brands are fragrance brands called Joe of London and Entity.
