TOP 6 BRONZERS: Mis favoritos.


Escogí estos de distintos acabados, de diferentes texturas y marcas. La variedad de precios no es mucha, todos son productos "high-end". Tengo más bronceadores que cualquier cosa en mi colección.  Estos seis los volvería a comprar cada vez que se acaben. Si solo quieres uno que te sirva para contorno y calidez en el rostro escoge uno matte y en polvo como Hoola o Laguna. Si quieres poder verte mas natural el de Chanel que es en crema puede ser tanto sutil como fuerte, pero si lo que prefieres es solo bronceado y tu piel no es grasa puedes usar uno que tenga más brillo como Betty-Loumanizer o Givenchy croisiere.


















1. Givenchy Croisiere. #3 Amber Croisière.

2. Chanel. Soleil Tan de Chanel.

Becca Powder highlighters


These powders do not need a lot of explanation they are amazing and the swatches don't leave anything to our imagination. The formulation of these is perfect, amazing pigmentation and buttery goodness.


The packaging is not my favorite but it is sturdy and durable... But I have a lot of highliters and without a doubt these are my favorite. 

5 shades are available, I think the "champagne gold" one is a limited edition  shade for the holidays but I haven't seen it going out of stock on the sephora website so if you like it you can still grab it. 

Use a light hand with this product ... Or look like a disco ball. 

Moonstone. The lightest shade... I thought this would be my favorite but even though it isn't it gets your cheekbones high and perfect. 


Opal. My favorite ... Well loved, it is the best highliter I have ever used. Perfection. If you are too fair you can use it on the summer as a blush topper. I'm fair but I don't care it looks amazing and I always get compliments on it when I use it on my clients. 


Topaz. It is the darkest shade. Very beautiful on deep skin tones but as a bronze goddess kind of summer glow it is incredible too... And I have used these as eyeshadows with my fingers and they are incredible. 


Rose gold. This is the latest permanent shade and I like it not as a highlight per se but as a blush topper... If you love Nars Orgasm Bush, you can turn any boring pink, coral or neutral blush into a way better than "orgasm" if you mix it well. 


Champagne gold. Holiday limited edition shade. I haven't played with it a lot and it seems to be too yellow but I think it can be used on a gold look with red lips for Christmas or NYE. The finish is beautiful as well. 



Hope you liked it. 
Kisses my loves,

TOO FACED CHOCOLATE BAR EYESHADOW PALETTE

14 Eyeshadows that smell like chocolate. Every eyeshadow name is chocolate related and the tin box palette looks like metal chocolate. If you don´t like scented makeup you will hate this, but if you love chocolate you are gonna love these beautiful shades.



The pigmentation is buttery, the colors are buildable, you can create neutral looks, smokey eyes, simple eye looks with pops of color, play with mattes, satins and shimmery eyeshadows. It has a decent mirror if you are planning to travel with it and the new and improved version is really slim, travel friendly.



Cons: it is a noisy palette and the names are displayed on a sheet something like the Sleek palettes, the difference is that this is a $50.oo dollars palette and nothing about it is suppose to be cheap looking.

The Swatches will be soft and heavy so that you can see how well pigmented they really are and what they will look like if you wish to pack them :

1. Gilded Ganache, Salted Caramel and Hazelnut.



2. White Chocolate, Marzipan, Creme Brûlée.



3. Semi-sweet, Haute Chocolate.



4. Milk Chocolate, Strawberry Bon Bon, Cherry cordial.



5. Black Forest Truffle, Candied Violet.



6. Triple fudge, Amaretto, Champagne truffle.




You can buy this palette at Ulta, Sephora and Amazon. Here are the links if you want to check it out for yourself.
