NEW COVERGIRL Flamed Out Shadow Pencils

COVERGIRL Flamed Out Shadow Pencil in Ashen Glow Flame (L) and Silver Flame (R).

The latest addition to the COVERGIRL cosmetic line is the fierce and exotic Flamed Out Shadow Pencils (A$9.95), which help to heat up your look for any hot occasion! COVERGIRL P!NK is the gorgeous gal who has been rocking these fabulous new Flamed Out Shadow Pencils. These Flamed Out Shadow Pencils are available in 6 beautiful shades. 

Covergirl P!NK - ''I like my makeup to be colourful, smokey, sexy and the new Flamed Out Collection from COVERGIRL is all those things ... The Shadow Pencils complement each other to make a dramatic statement - perfect for the kind of looks I like to wear on stage! Hot enough for you?''

I have with me two shades of the Flamed Out Shadow Pencils to review and swatch:

#335 Ashen Glow Flame - a metallic light gold

#300 Silver Flame - a metallic gunmetal grey

I love how chunky these shadow pencils are as they make application so quick and easy! Once applied to the eye lids, I could feel a nice cooling sensation which makes these shadow pencils feel like an eye gel! 

The texture of the shadow pencils is very creamy and smooth despite the high intensity of metallic finish they provide. These pencils glide on oh soo smoothly and effortlessly along my eye lid, I was amazed as to how easy it was use. The pigmentation is quite buildable, however, the longevity was just mediocre. I've had to apply an eye primer to prolong the lasting power of these shadow pencils. 

These pencils are so versatile as they could be used as an eye liner or shadow. You could even apply these pencils to the inner corners of the eye, depending on the shade of course! The shade Silver Flame works beautifully when applied to the inner corners of the eyes to give a little spark and pop to a smokey eye look. Both of these metallic shades also complement one another to create a goddess eye look!

NEW Olay Fresh Effects 'Shine, Shine Go Away' and 'Bead Me Up'

Olay have unveiled their brand new range of skin care called Olay Fresh Effects, which is targeted to those aged between 18 and 30. Olay Fresh Effects skin care range aims to keep skin looking and feeling fresh 24/7. The main components of this fun and vibrant new skin care range includes citrus extracts to awaken and refresh tired skin and also flower essences to hydrate and nourish the skin. I love the look of this fun, bright and fresh new range as this is the first time Olay have formulated skin care products for young skin. 

Olay Fresh Effects Shine, Shine Go Away Cleanser

Shine, Shine Go Away (A$14.49/150ml) is a shine minimizing cleanser which helps to purify the skin the same way a facial mask draws impurities from the outer-most layer of the skin. The formula contains kaolin clay, a common ingredient found in facial masks, which helps to draw impurities deep within pores and ensure the skin stays shine-free during the day. Basically, this cleanser works like a facial mask but it's to be used as a facial cleanser. 

The lightweight formula is oil-free and feels gentle against my skin. I find the colour of the formula quite intriguing, as I've never come across a cleanser which is metallic grey in colour. The colour doesn't bother me at all, as the formula worked well to gently cleanse my combination/oily skin. The formula does lather up quite nicely and doesn't strip away the essential oils on my skin. My skin feels refreshed, hydrated and squeaky clean!

Olay Fresh Effects Bead Me Up Exfoliating Cleanser

Bead Me Up Exfoliating Cleanser (A$14.49/150ml) which contains exfoliating micro-beads to help refresh and revitalise the skin. The exfoliating beads are so gentle to my skin that my skin can tolerate the exfoliating action of the beads when used on a daily basis. The formula actually lather up slightly to thoroughly lift away impurities caught deep within the pores and skin and leaves my skin feeling smooth and soft to touch. I really enjoyed using this exfoliator and it worked like a dream and didn't irritate my skin.

Sukin Purifying Body Scrub

Sukin products always deliver with positive results and the latest product by Sukin that has left a smile to my dial is the Purifying Body Scrub (A$21.9 /200ml). Sukin Purifying Body Scrub is sulphate and paraben free and is formulated with micro particles of bamboo extract and ground walnut shells to purify the skin and aloe vera, chamomile, rose hip, jojoba and sesame to hydrate the skin. I am amazed at the list of luxuriously hydrating ingredients formulated within this body scrub as the formula works magnificently to moisturise and hydrate dry areas of my body. I've been using this body scrub twice a week by just massaging a generous amount to damp skin and then finish off by rinsing with lukewarm water. I absolutely love the scent of this body scrub as it reminds me of almond filled croissants! The granules are relatively fine and they work well to slough away dry and rough skin, particularly around the elbows and knees. My skin feels beautifully polished and it does leave a subtle sweet scent after application! This body was so easy to apply to deliver beautifully smooth and soft looking skin!
