Move to the upper arch and blend using the spoolie.
To add detail and dimension, add hair like strokes to the front of the brow.
With the tip of the pencil, lightly sketch in the same direction as the hair’s natural growth.
Use this technique on sparse areas throughout the brow and blend using the spoolie for a natural finish.
Remember that all ABH products are highly pigmented, so little pressure is required when applying.

Stay Quirky Unicorn Blood Lipstick

My experience with Stay Quirky Unicorn Blood Lipstick

Packaging:

This lipstick comes in a cute rectangular turn open tube and has got a classy matte black plastic cap with a silver body. On the bottom of the lipstick, the shade code, name and other details are mentioned. The packaging of this product is quite convenient and pretty at the same time, also, it is sturdy and travels friendly.

Texture :

The lipstick has got a really smooth finish, it is not entirely a matte lipstick though. The lipstick glides easily and fills up the fine lines of the lips making them less visible.

It is well pigmented and thus a single stroke or swipe is more than enough to get the perfect bold, defining red lips. This lipstick gives a very natural finish and also moisturizes the lips well.

Sivanna Colors Eye Shadow 15 Review

by Nikhita Ferreira November 1, 2023

written by Nikhita Ferreira

Who is it for? Sivanna Colors Eye Shadow 15 is For those looking for a pocket-friendly eye shadow in an orange shimmer shade that is extremely pigmented.

Price

Approximately INR 200

Sensitivity Alert

Off late, my eyes and skin haS gotten rather sensitive. But, with this particular eye shadow, I had no issue at all.

How to use

So the instructions are the same as all other eye shadows. You can also use a damp brush to apply, to make the shade stronger.

Sivanna Colors Eye Shadow 15

My experience with the Sivanna Colors Eye Shadow 15

Packaging

So most single eye shadows come in very basic packaging, but they look presentable. Not that I’m saying that this doesn’t look presentable but they couldn’t have worked on making it look a little more professional. The front transparent lid has the branding on it while the back just has a sticker mentioning the shade number.

Fragrance

To be very honest, I’ve not really gone up close to an eye shadow from a professional brand so I don’t know if it has a fragrance. But this one does, and its not pleasing. It has that very subtle fragrance that a lot of cheap makeup products do.

Texture/Consistency

It’s got a very smooth texture to it. I wouldn’t say butter like but it doesn’t feel like you have a product on.

Shade

I loved the shade the minute I saw it at the counter. It’s an orange shade that will suit all skin tones.

Pigmentation

For the price that it comes at, I think the pigmentation is really strong. When applying the product, a very small amount is required or else it will be a little too much.

Application

It’s easy to use eye shadow that glides on well and blends easily.

My Experience

I’m very happy with this purchase. The shade looks beautiful and adds a whole lot of glam

Overall performance of Sivanna Colors Eye Shadow 15

Pros

Beautiful shade
Blends easily
Strong pigment
Affordable

Cons

The packaging is not great
The fragrance isn’t pleasing

Would I recommend & repurchase?

Definitely.

Puna Store Brushes Review

by Somya Satija November 1, 2023

written by Somya Satija

Who is it for? Puna Store Brushes Set is a mini makeup brush set for people who prefer inexpensive, quality mini brushes. As they are small in size, you can travel with them easily. It includes a Blending brush, Eye bending blush, eye flat brush and a Kabuki brush.

Price:

I got it for INR 250 but the price keeps on changing

How to use?

It has 4 brushes.

Blending brush: I use it for both applying foundation as well as for applying blushes.
Eye Blending Brush: Due to the long bristles of this, I hardly use it for blending but instead use it for applying highlighter on cheekbones.
Eye Flat brush: This is used to apply pigments on eyelids.
Kabuki Brush: It is the best brush of the lot. A multi-purpose brush and can be used for anything.

Puna Store Brushes

My experience with Puna Store Brushes:

Packaging:

It comes in a beige jute bag. The bad is not an airtight bag. The brushes are very tiny and there is no shedding after washing.

Ease Of Application:

I am not much into makeup. This is the first brush set which I have bought. According to me, they are quite fantastic.

My Experience:

I was a little skeptical while buying this, but they turned out fine. I still prefer my fingers for applying makeup as I have full control during application, but this set comes in handy. My favorite is the Kabuki brush. I carry it in my purse. I use it to apply my Cushion Foundation, as a compact applicator, and as a blush brush. The set is a mini set; it is handy, compact, and useful. For INR250 you get 4 multi-purpose brushes. Quality wise I have nothing to compare it too as these are the first brushes, which I have purchased. Go for it if you are new to makeup and want to try a variety of things.

Pros:

Compact size
Multi-Purpose brushes
Beginner friendly
Inexpensive
Four brushes in a set
Soft brushes
No shedding
Availability

Cons:

Some people may not like the small size
No zip lock bag available

Will I repurchase?

Not this set. Puna Store offers a variety of sets. I might choose some other one.

Won’t lie but the packaging of these wipes are what that caught my attention. It comes in a white plastic pack with a box lid like opening and when opened is followed by sticky reseal flap under it.

PAC Diamond Eye shadow No 216 Review

by Nikhita Ferreira November 1, 2023

written by Nikhita Ferreira

Who is it for? PAC Diamond Eye shadow No 216 is For those looking for a wine like an eye shadow with some shimmer in it that can be used to glam up your look.

Price

Again, I’m not so sure of the exact pricing. But, it’s between INR 300- 450.

Sensitivity Alert

I haven’t faced any issue with this and neither have any of my clients. So I’d say it’s safe!

PAC Diamond Eye shadow No 216

My experience with the PAC Diamond Eye shadow No 216

Packaging

The eye shadow comes in the usual metallic refill pan, which is placed in a plastic casing. I have no issue with the packaging, only thing is, I wish the pan came with a magnet to it. It would have made storing easier.

Shade

Now, this is one beautiful shade that you don’t find very easily. It’s sort of like a wine/burgundy shade that has a lot of gold shimmer specs to it. So, if you’re looking to glam up your look for a night out, it will work beautifully.

Texture

So, I usually like eye shadows that feel buttery between the fingers. Basically, when you can’t tell that you have a product in your hands. But, with this one, due to the shimmer, it does feel a tad bit grainy.

Application

Now here’s the tricky part. This particular PAC eye shadow doesn’t blend with as much ease. It needs to be patted on to the lid or has to be used with glue as there’s quite a bit of fall out.

Affordability

A lot of people have told me that they find it a little pricey. But, for me, since I do makeup professionally, I think it’s a real steal.

Pigmentation

Like all other PAC products, this one too has a very strong pigment.

My experience

I’m extremely happy with this product. I haven’t used it on myself, but I’ve used it on clients and they’ve all loved it. It looks gorgeous on the eyes and adds so much of glam to the look. It completely ups your game.

My overall experience with the PAC Diamond Eye Shadow No 216

Pros

Strong pigment
Not expensive
Beautiful shade
Decent packaging

Cons

No magnet to the pan
Lots of fall out

Would I repurchase & recommend?

Of course. I love the shade and its great quality too. So guys, go get it!!

Lakme Insta Eyeliner Green Review

by Sakshi Pandey October 31, 2023

written by Sakshi Pandey

Who is it for? This Lakme Insta Eyeliner Green is for those who are looking for a Matte green colored waterproof Eyeliner which gives a funky, chic look and accentuates eye make up.

Price and quantity :

This Eyeliner retails for INR 115/- for 9 ml.

How to apply?

There are several ways one can use this Eyeliner, that is in combination with black or golden liner by outlining.
However, one needs to draw a uniform line from the innermost corner of the upper eyelid till the outermost corner of the eyelid.

Lakme Insta Eyeliner Green

My experience with Lakme Insta Eyeliner Green

Packaging :

This product comes in a sturdy glass transparent bottle of 9ml, like that of a nail polish bottle and has a wand Brush Applicator. The small size and leak-proof feature make it travel-friendly thus, can even be carried in my purse.

Fragrance :

There is very slight almost negligible smell like that of acetone.

Shade:

This is a Matte finish green liner which looks cool and stunning and is perfect for a sunny day or for beach looks. This is not for people who prefer glossy or glittery shades.

Texture:

This liner has a runny consistency and smooth texture which sets perfectly over the eyelids, though it takes some time to dry up.

Lasting power :

Although this product claims to be water resistant, it does not do justice to its claims. This eyeliner sets in place for almost up to 5 hours thereafter it starts withering away because of perspiration.

Why do I like this Eyeliner?

The matte green shade.
Nonallergic.
Looks amazing.
Waterproof.
Affordable
Quantity with accordance to quality.
Easily available

What I don’t like about this Eyeliner?

Doesn’t lasts long

Would I recommend or repurchase?

I give a thumbs up to this product and would recommend to everyone who is willing to get an affordable yet unique and stylish Eyeliner or want to experiment with their regular black liner. As far as repurchasing is concerned I would like to experience the green Eyeliner from other brands as well.

Effectiveness:

My Experience:

I have never been a mascara person. I usually do not use the mascara either. This mascara caught my eye but I was apprehensive as it was expensive and the swatches on the hand did not look very impressive. I do not have voluminous or thick eyelashes and the mascara did not help much either. The lashes would get stuck or would look weird at times. Moreover, they smudge even. I feel there are better mascaras in the market at better prices.

Overall Performance of the Benefit Badgal Bang! Mascara

Pros:

Attractive and sturdy packaging
Easy to carry
Contains Vitamin B5 for healthy eyelashes
Easy to apply
Extremely light weighted
Available on Nykaa

Cons:

Expensive
The mascara smudges
The eyelashes stick together on the application

Recommendation

I would not recommend this mascara to all. Only if you are very keen on trying this particular mascara from Benefit then you should buy it.

Product rating: I would give the mascara 3 stars out of 5 stars.
