Colourpop No Filter Line Review

Hello everyone and welcome back to my website! Sorry I have been gone for over a week, I was doing some family stuff and had to take a short break from my website. I hated not being able to post, but I'm back and in full force! Today I have another review for you, I'm honestly really enjoying the reviews. Today I'm reviewing the ColourPop No Filter Foundation, Concealer and Translucent Setting Powder. I've gotten all three of them, and could not wait to use them! The hype behind them has been crazy. I'll get into everything I thought about the packaging, quality of the components. For the makeup products themselves I'm going to get into color matching, fragrance, longevity and general quality of the products.









Packaging: 
The exterior packaging is so cute on this set. It’s matte baby pink with diagonal white glossy stripes and silver embossed writing. This is seriously my aesthetic! The packaging of the products themselves is super simple and nice. The foundation is a clear glass bottle with a white plastic locking pump, white text and white stars, it’s so cute! The concealer is clear plastic, with a white handle, a flat paddle applicator tip, and silver text. The translucent setting powder is again clear with a white cap and silver text. The whole line is made super simple and clean looking. Not too crazy or confusing like I’ve seen on other packaging from different brands.




Products: 
The foundation, one thing I noticed is that it’s darker in the bottle than it is applied. I was scared I was about to look like a sheet of paper! Once the formula was set, it oxidized and got a little darker and looked how I thought it looked in the bottle. I was spooked for a good few minutes thinking I had the wrong shade. The formula is kind of on the more thin side. There is a light foundation scent, but it’s nothing strong or obnoxious. It literally just smells like a liquid foundation. For the pigmentation, I’ve heard people claim it being medium to full, I found it to be a mid-range medium coverage. I have acne spots, redness and scarring, I had to build up the foundation to cover them. Luckily it built up really nice and didn’t pull up or go patchy! 

The concealer is about the same as the foundation for scent, but I found it to be a higher medium coverage. It didn’t quite cover my dark circles, but I’ve never found anything that does. The shade in the tube is pretty accurate to what it looks like on. It blends out beautifully, although it is a touch too light. That’s my fault though lol. The consistency is a medium thickness and really creamy. 

The setting powder was pretty nice too. It’s a really finely milled powder that does on really smoothly. I did notice that although I got the shade Translucent, it did have a slight color to it. There was no flash back or anything like that, but it did lighten the shade of my foundation without adding any coverage. Which it isn’t supposed to, but I thought it was a good thing to mention! 

In conclusion, do I recommend these? Yes, honestly you can’t go wrong with these products especially for the price point. I did notice however that you should make sure you moisturize your skin before using the foundation, it did slightly cling to a dry patch near a break out. I hid it easily enough by patting in a little more of the foundation with my sponge and it seemed to hide it completely. I’ll have an unedited photo below for you to see it. My skin has texture and anything I wear will sit in my smile lines. It’s not the foundations fault. It’s literally just my face lol. By the way, I had the products on for over 8 hours, nothing broke up or went oily. I have combo skin with an oily t-zone.

Thank you all so much for stopping by and checking out this review! I love doing reviews so much. I have some new stuff I was to test out and give a wear test on. I can’t wait to get back into my beauty room! I’ve been in a funk, dealing with my anxiety and depression. I’m okay, but it’s not something that’ll ever go away and I’ve made my peace with that! I’ve also been helping babysit for my sister in law. This coming Friday I plan on going in there and playing in some new makeup! I can’t wait!

Sunrise Eyes Tutorial (a year later)

Sunrise Eyes Tutorial

Sunrise Eyes Tutorial 

(a year later)

Hello everyone and welcome back to my website! Today's eyeshadow tutorial I have for you was one I was super excited to do! About a year ago I did a similar look using the BH Cosmetics Take Me Back to Brazil palette, which turned out beautiful. I decided to give it a second attempt, using the James Charles x Morphe palette! With the difference in quality of the eyeshadows and my skills improving, I thought it'd be a fun idea! I did do this look about two weeks ago and honestly forgot I had done it and realized it a few days ago. This look is so much more pigmented and blown out looking. It does look like it has less purple, but that's due to the lighting being a little weird and the purple being taken over by the red lol. In the regular selfie (not the close up) you can see more of the purple! Let's get into this boi's!


Sunrise Eyes Tutorial

Stating out the look, I primed my eyelids with the Wet n Wild Photofocus Eye Primer. A tacky base makes all the world of difference when using this palette! Concealer does this weird thing with the pigments and makes them go dark. Here in the image of the palette, I have all 6 shades I used circled and numbered to make things a little easier. On a large blending brush I picked up the shade Bee (1) and backed it into the outer corner and the buffed it out almost to the brow bone. Leave a little room so you have space to put a highlight shade. On a medium size blending brush, I picked up 518 & You're Kidding (2 and 3) and blew them out on the crease, making sure the yellow was still visible. On a flat shader brush I picked up Love That (4) and packed it all over the lid, avoiding the outer corner. On a smaller blending brush I blended the edges of Love That into the crease. I then used it to pick up the shade Escape (5) and darkened up the outer corner to bring in some more depth. On a pencil brush I picked up Ring Light (6) and put it on the brow bone and inner corner. Using the same pencil brush, I took Escape and Ring Light and put them on the bottom lash line, blending them into each other!




Sunrise Eyes Tutorial

That is the final look for the eyes! The rest of my face I did like I normally do, Which you can see me do in any of my YouTube videos! Linked below. I hope you love this look as much as I do. If you want to recreate this look, Tag me on social media! I'd love to see that yours turns out! Please remember to follow me on social media, I just hit 1k on Instagram and i'm so excited! 
Xoxo Lulu.

Morphe Fluidity Foundation & Concealer Review!

Morphe Fluidity Foundation & Concealer
Fresh Application.

Morphe Fluidity Foundation & Concealer Review!


Hello everyone and welcome back to my website! Today I am reviewing the new Morphe Fluidity Foundation and Concealer! I did an all day wear test and I have photos to share with you, along swatches of the two products. I'm going to go over the claims on their website and tell you how accurate I felt they were. The photo I have here is after I had done my makeup and was in front of a window. It's a bit snowy outside so the lighting was really soft and bright! This was the makeup fresh with about half hour of wear time.

Finally. A foundation throwing major shade. Meet Morphe Fluidity, the long-wearing, full-coverage matte foundation that performs like a boss and is not caught in the middle or playing sides.

My Shade: 
F1.50 Neutral (fair with neutral undertones)

My Thoughts:
Morphe Fluidity Foundation & Concealer
After 6 Hours of Wear.
First impression of the foundation is it has a medium thickness. There isn't much of a scent and appeared to be pretty full coverage. I decided to buff in the foundation with a flat top brush by BH Cosmetics. Using a brush will give you slightly better coverage than a sponge will. Sponge's tend to pick up more of the product, giving you less coverage. Buffed out this foundation is absolutely flawless, and smooth! I have a lot of texture and it seemed to hide a lot of it. A lot of reviews had said it made their texture show up more. I for one, did not have that issue thankful. For my skin type, I have an oily t-zone and dryness on my jaw line and around my acne breakouts. It did a beautiful job hiding my breakouts and redness. By the end of the night, after 6 hrs of wear I looked shiny. But for some reason I wasn't greasy feeling... I just looked shiny, It was more of a glow, not sure if I mind it. One thing to note is the foundation oxidized and did turn a little darker. The foundation is kind of yellow toned and almost turns a little warm once it's actually dried down and set. But it doesn't look orange on the skin. I didn't have any transfer on my clothes or any break up in the formula.

My Shade:
C1.25 (Neutral)

My Thoughts:

Morphe Fluidity Foundation & Concealer
F1.50 & C1.25
The texture of this concealer is kind of thick but super creamy and smooth. I thought this concealer was going to be way too light based on the foundation shade, but once everything was blended out and set, it was a perfect match! The concealer slightly oxidized, but not as much as the foundation, which still wasn't very much. I did purchase the lightest neutral foundation and concealer shades, and they're both kind of yellow in tone. Luckily my Italian genes pull slightly yellow, but i'm still more on the neutral side. There wasn't much of a scent, other than the general makeup smell. All cream makeup products have that basic scent, that isn't fragrant. It was definitely full coverage. I have awful dark circles that almost look like bruises, and the concealer covered everything.

Here you can see them swatched on the back of my hand. The fresh swatch was slightly patted out and as you can see the coverage is still very full. Yes, my hands are very light compared to my face and chest. The swatches of them dried was after 20 minutes and I let them dry naturally. They're not set at all and have no transfer or smearing. They're matte and soft, They don't have a drying feel to them.



Thank you all so much for stopping by and checking out this review. I hope you found it informative, if you have any questions feel free to ask me in the comments or you can always DM me on any of my social media platforms which will all be linked below. If you can't tell, I loved the foundation and concealer! Yes I set them, I used the Makeup Revolution Baking Powder in Translucent. I used a light amount of powder just to make sure nothing creased or got greasy through my t-zone.
