Makeupholic's Diary

Hello everyone! Hope you are all doing good. Today I sat down to write another review for you. I will be reviewing Benefit Cosmetics Galifornia Blush which I have been using for quite sometime and have alot to say about it. So let's get started! Benefit Cosmetics Galifornia Blush launched in 2017 and I have been eyeing it since then because of its beautiful, fun and colorful packaging so one day I finally decided to purchase it. Benefit Galifornia Blush Ever since I got my hands on this, I cannot stop obsessing over its packaging! It looks absolutely gorgeous in my makeup vanity. It comes in a square cardboard box with a mirror and a good quality brush inside just like the standard benefit blushes. The brush that comes along is very useful when you're on the go. In addition to that, one thing that immediately caught my attention when I opened it for the first time was the smell. It smells very fruity, just like grapefruit to be exact which I really enjoy but if you do

Hey guys! Hope everyone is doing well and taking all the necessary precautions to stay safe and healthy. As all of us are locked up in our homes, I have decided to post more often to keep you guys entertained as I have alot more time than I used to have. So, today I decided to pen down another review and this time it is of something which is every girl's favourite makeup product, easily available in Pakistan and is very affordable aswell. Yess I am talking about blushes and specifially St London's blush which won't cost an arm and leg and is easily available at any supermarket or drugstore in Pakistan. Coming to the packaging, this comes in a good quality, sturdy black hard plastic packaging which looks very appealing in my makeup kit. Its packaging reminds me of Sephora single blushes and Inglot's round blushes. It has a mirror inside which I do appreciate. Shade and shelf life of the product are mentioned on the back of the blush. Now let's talk about the

Good day everyone! Today I will be reviewing my most favourite eyeshadow palette that I can't stop using since the day I bought it and it is the one and only Anastasia Beverly Hills Soft Glam! I kid you not guys, if you are not a makeup junkie and just want that one eyeshadow palette that would be enough for every occassion, which has nice soft earthy tones that would suit every skin tone, has great pigmentation and longevity, has beautiful mattes and amazing shimmery shades, look no further! this is the only eyeshadow palette that would actually need. Coming to the packaging, it has a nice velvet top which has soft glam written over same as the modern rennaisance palette by anastasia. It has a nice big mirror inside which really comes handy, it has a very nice double sided brush. On one side, there is a small densely packed brush which you can use for precision, smaller areas of the eyes or for eyeshadow placement and on the other side there is a fluffy brush which is perfec

Hey everyone! I hope you are all doing great :) Today I have an eyeshadow review for you guys and I am really excited for this one. Excited because it is a dual purpose product, it is an eyeshadow that works great as a contour powder because it is a cool toned grey shade. Finding a grey contour powder in drugstore is very difficult I wonder why they make such muddy orangey contour powders. People often use bronzers to contour but that is totally wrong. Bronzer is for warming up the face and contour is for slimming down the face by creating natural looking shadows. As shadows are grey in color so a grey toned powder is perfect to mimic those shadows and achieve that sculpted look. This eyeshadow's quality is no less than a high end one. Great pigmentation, silky smooth texture, very less fall out and plus it is super inexpensive with almost double quantity than the regular eyeshadows. Apart from eyeshadow it can be used as a contour especially on our desi skintones. But you ha

Happy friday everyone! Today I will be reviewing my go to eyeliner that I use almost daily because I don't like gel eyeliners for everyday use as liquid liners are alot easy to apply. I had Maybelline gel eyeliner before but that one dried out so quickly I even tried several methods to revive it but all failed. So I switched to this liquid liner and so far I am really enjoying using it. Coming to the packaging, It comes in a short silver and black bottle which looks very attractive. It has a very fine brush tip which makes it very easy to draw sharp and precise lines especially when applying a winged eyeliner. I like thinner brushes more than the thicker ones as they provide more control and there is less chance of messing up. It has an intense black colour which is why I adore this! It applies wet and dries down to a matte finish within a minute. It does not dry super fast on the eyes so you have to be careful and until it gets completely dry because there is a chance that i

Hey everyone! Today I will be reviewing the colourpop ultra metallic eyeshadow that I ordered a few days back after hearing so many good things about it. So I had to try it out to find out what the hype is all about. Firstly, I really like the cute little plastic packaging that it comes in. I got the shade "Get lucky" which is a beautiful mid tone gold metallic shade. The texture of this eyeshadow is very creamy and smooth and you can get the most pigmentation out of it if you apply it with your fingers. The lasting power of this eyeshadow is amazing too I applied it in the morning and took it off after more than 8 hours and it still looked vibrant. And because it has a creamy texture, the fall out is alot less than the usual powder eyeshadows but you have to be careful and close the lid properly after use inorder to retain its creamy texture and prevent it from drying out. I will definitely be buying more of their eyeshadows especially the matte ones as I have not tried th

Hi lovelies ! I hope you are all doing well. I am back with another review for you guys. And this time it is of a new blusher! You all must be aware of wet n wild color icon blushes, yeah they are pretty old but recently they reformulated their blushes, revamped the packaging and added some new shades in their color icon blush line. So I ordered one for myself and decided to test this product for a couple of days and write a review for you guys and here are my findings! First off this blush is very inexpensive ! Only 500 rupees in pakistan which is super inexpensive as compared to other nyx and milani blushes. You get 5.85g of the product which is going to last you for a long time as you only need a tiny amount of this product because it is super pigmented. So coming to the packaging, it looks totally different as compared to the previous packaging that they had. I really like the new one as it is very cute sleek and sturdy with a cute little animal cruelty sticker on top of i
