After gawking at the Victoria's Secret website, I've finally decided to get off my ass and go to the store to check out their Brazil inspired beauty collection. It also helped that I got a little gift card for $10 bucks off. If you remember from this post, I put in pictures of the two eye palettes and the bronzer.
Anyway, so I went to the store and found out that the collection actually comes with moisturizers that gradually tan & firm the skin, shimmering lotions, and lip glosses. The moisturizer didn't really impress me because I thought that maybe I'll tan faster than I firm up, so yea... and the shimmering lotion, well, I'm not a fan of glitter on my skin. I like to have a nice sheen, or a glow, but I don't really wanna glisten or shimmer. And the lippies, there were only 3 to choose from and none of them turned me on.
Now, about the eye palettes, I reaaally liked them. The colors were quite pigmented, the powder was velvety, and oh... they were just a dream! But, I didn't get them because I already have all those colors (or something similar to them), and I haven't even really been using the ones that I have. SO if I got the palettes, they'd just got to waste.
Now the bronzers... I love the bronzer so much that I took one home with me. I found out there were actually TWO bronzers. "Ipanema" is the one I got, and also the lighter of the two. The other one is "Copacabana", which frankly, looked a little muddy when I put it on my skin.
So without further adieu, PICTURE TIME!
Look at that, even the box is pretty.
This is what it says on the back, plus ingredients.
Teeheeee... I love this little compact!!!
And this is how it looks.
And just like the MAC Studio Fix powder, you can open it up at the bottom...
And find the brush/applicator that comes with it. NOTE: I don't like this brush, the bristles are too stiff and they feel harsh against my face. But, it's nice to have =)
That's it =) Y'all like how I stretched my post about my one little item? LOL.
HAVE A BEAUTIFUL WEEKEND
&
HAPPY EASTER!
