PRODUCT REVIEW: SLEEK FLASH 'A' POUT LIPSTAIN IN FORBIDDEN

After a very tiring day in makeup school I was getting ready to go home and I heard one of my friends ask one of the sales rep that come to advertise their different makeup brands for lipstick and the sales rep said she had sleek and  I was like sleek, REALLY!!! (didn’t expect it to be good) and she then added that it’s matte and it’s very good and then my instructor whose judgement I trust consigned and said they have re-branded. Then I said bring OK lets see and as luck would have it she brought this bad boy 
I mean that was the first shade she brought out was forbidden which is a dark red the shade after my own heart at that stage I knew I was going to get it even without trying it. I opened it and saw how thick it was so because I had not paid for it yet I applied to the hand of my hand( we makeup artist are kind of used to that) and applied it to my lips with a lip brush a little of this goes a long way and it dried even before I finished applying it, it’s so matte it had this little sticky feeling after applying but nothing that can’t be ignored, then I looked in the mirror and this is what I see 

I couldn’t  resist taking a picture. I didn’t  notice the 'with led light written' on it so while trying to close it I noticed a small button on top and was wondering what does this do and I pressed it and the light came on 

And at that stage I knew I was not going to let this one go there are six shades all together: dude, siren, naivety, revolution, coined and the amazing forbidden. I plan on getting the duke too which is a dark purple shade I love this, it’s bold and it’s a dominating color 

Another positive thing  is the fact that getting this off was a struggle like I had to use Vaseline when I couldn't fully get it off with just wipes. So you can kiss, eat, drink, kiss again and this will still be there. I am definitely going to get this again. You can get it here here for just #1500. 


HAVE A LOVELY WEEK SUGARS

I'm currently attending the House of Tara makeup school ( that's why I have not had time to post), when we were given our starter kit the eye shadow primer was sold out then  and I needed one so I went in search of one that was affordable, I went to Ikeja City Mall to see which one I can get and I saw this beauty I had not seen any previous reviews on this product so I didn't even know what it could do, I bought it because of the packaging. This primer comes in three shades; white, nude and black.

Concealer: Before or After Foundation?

Prior to my enrollment in makeup school, I always knew concealer should be applied after foundation but when my instructor was creating the first look, she said concealer should go first and I was startled like 'what is she saying, this is just wrong'. This was going on in my head anyways (I didn't say it out but had my poker face on), even though I felt she was doing the wrong thing. Next day I got to school early and a couple of other trainees that were around, so I randomly asked; "should concealer be applied before or after foundation and they both said it should be before foundation with so much confidence". Well... I wasn't going to back down because I still didn't agree with the rationale behind their position but I don't enjoy arguing, so I just let it pass and more so, I wasn't about to make concealer an issue. Moving on,  I was working on my models and I decided to try out both methods, "before and after foundation" and I realis...
