To be lighter or To be darker.....

So my recent visit to The Body shop


 for a body fix has left me mesmerized at the new found development in foundation and skin matching at The Body Shop. Their foundation is available in 16 nature inspired shades and now can be modified with shade adjusters to match your skin tone perfectly. here's a mini review on their foundation and the shade adjusters. I will be adding a follow up personal pic review later next week.






Fresh Nude Foundation




Makeup and looking fabulous every day should be a  easy and painless. according to The Body Shop their  Fresh Nude Foundation, enriched with English rose water and aloe vera, this hydrating formula leaves skin feeling beautifully fresh and comfortable all day. It also contains SPF 15 to help protect your skin. With a semi-matte finish, each of these 16 nature-inspired shades mimics the look of fresh-faced natural skin with a nude glow. It has up to 24H moisturisation and SPF 15.  It is suitable for sensitive skin & dermatological tested

Now....

That they have realised that their 16 nature inspired shades do not cater to all skin tones, they have launched 2 products to assist in the adjustment of shades to acquire your perfect shade.

Introducing...
SHADE ADJUSTING DROPS


No one likes to settle for second best, or not the perfect fit.... now The Body Shop has launched their Shade Adjusting Drops help turn an almost there foundation into the perfect one. 


This is their review from their website....

                                              LIGHTENING DROPS


If you have light to medium skin you may find your foundation looks too dark or orange. A concentration of white and pink pigments in our Lightening Drops helps neutralise yellowness while lightening. Simply add a drop to lighten light to medium shades.
• For use with light to medium foundation shades 
• Transform an “almost right” foundation shade into the perfect one 
• 1 drop = ½ a shade lighter
• Works with most liquid foundations
                                        
DARKENING DROPS 

If you have dark to deep skin you may find your foundation looks too light or ashy. A concentration of black and red pigments in our Darkening Drops helps darken while keeping the natural depth. Simply add a drop to darken dark to deep foundation shades. 
• For use with dark to deep foundation tones 
• Transform an “almost right” foundation shade into the perfect one 
• 1 drop = ½ a shade darker 
• Works with most liquid foundations




This basic review from the store and the website, this makes me wants to purchase it and test it.

Stay tuned for the personal review, that i shall test on myself and my favourite 2 assistants, my lovely and always eager elder sisters....

I personally can't wait...

“Great Makeup begins With Great Skin”

Makeup, as girls we long for the day to finally wear our own makeup, but do we understand the use of it? Do we realize the perfect makeup look is achieved from great skincare? Do we know what our skin requires? I want to take you along on a journey of “Great Makeup begins With Great Skin” Makeup is meant to enhance your best features, not cover them. The first thing people should notice when they look at you is how radiant and gorgeous you look, not your makeup. More often than not, less is more when it comes to makeup, but for most of us, wearing less makeup is easier done when you have great skin. Few people have naturally perfect skin. The condition of the skin changes from day to day and season to season, but you can always improve it by taking good care of yourself. Beautiful skin begins with a healthy lifestyle. Oooh!, not all of us are on that track yet, especially not me. Skincare basics include: 1.   Nutrition -your diet has a direct impact on not on...

 Lil spice never stop the sun from shining... 😂😂😂 In my previous post named "Turmeric for clear, bright and acne free skin" posted on the mid 2017, are some variations to this haldi ubtan, used for various skin types and conditions.

Ubtan masks are in fact the very first cosmetic product ever used in the world. Ubtan is a mix of various herbs, p...
