YSL vernis a levres no 31 review and swatch

YSL vernis a levres no 31 which i got as a tester for review on my blog. You can see on the cover it is written tester / not for sale. And i am really happy they gave me the full size of it (6ml). The cost of the product is 30euro. Let's see what YSL says about this product and what is my opinion. Hope You will like it.

On douglas the brand says "From now on there are no more compromises - Yves Saint Laurent combines the durability of a Lipstains, the brilliance of a lipstick and the intense shine of a gloss in a single product: Vernis à Levres. The revolutionary formula with ethyl cellulose and nourishing oils provides extreme shine and durability, leaving a soft, lightweight feel on the lips."

My opinion: The gloss is very thin. For that the color of gloss look so light on lips. That's why you need to apply the gloss on lips 2-3 times for more dark shade. It spread on lips so easily because of its liquid gel texture.  I love the brush because of it softness. But it also take out excess gloss when you try to take out the brush from the tube. Sometimes you need to reduce the gloss from the tube. Most interesting is that after using the gloss it's become dry on lips. But after getting dry it will not make your lips cracky, you will fell soft.  The color on my lips look like coral red. The swatch on my hand i apply the gloss 3 times. I will say this shade is a definite must-have for summer.

essence eyeliner pen waterproof 01 review and swatch

After using alverde eyeliner i was really depressed for their lasting power and was searching for long lasting eyeliner and of-course which is water proof. Because i have to stay whole day in university for my hiwi job and for my masters program. essence brand is really cheap brand in Germany. I am a big fan of their nail-polish. This is the first time i brought their cosmetic stuff which essence eyeliner pen.  For the beginner who cannot make perfect wings i think this pen is perfect for learning.




The pen head is really thin and easy to draw a curve on eye. And it also dry so fast after using on eye. The color is so dark and perfect for black skin tone. And of-course it is long lasting. I use it in morning and went to university than come back at home at night. So it easily last 8-10 hours. Now let come to main point that is it water proof as the brand claim it is water proof? Now the answer is "Not really". If you try to draw a line just using the eye liner only one time  and don't continue the eyeliner second time on top of the same line than after one wash it goes fade totally. But If you draw a line by putting eyeliner 2/3 times on top of the same line than it didn't fade up by one wash.




Hope you enjoy my review!!
