Mini Haul: H.O.T

Hello everyone :)

Here's believing y'all are having a pleasant holiday.

So... 2days ago, i happened to be around the House of Tara school I was trained at and decided to "branch" and say a quick hello.

That's how "quick hello" carried me to the studio and there! Products! New products! Screaming my name! 

What i got...

1.

Foundation

This they said it's a medium coverage foundation. I got the shade TF314 (i'll tell you soon what the equivalent in Mary Kay medium coverage should be, i know everyone's used that one time), it's written for normal to oily skin, suitable for sensitive skin, oil free and non comedogenic (if this is true after i try it, i guess i've found "the foundation").

2.

Lip pencil

I've used this brown lip pencil severally and this particular shade is called "Afia". Perfect for a nude lipstick. 

3.

High pigment lipgloss

I have used other shades but not this particular one. I'm a sucker for nude lips and wanted something i could wear over a nude lipstick. I hope this works well. This shade is called "Okenne".

4.

Bronzer

Yuuup! They have a bronzer now and i totally love the packing! Looks serious and like a high end product. The bronzer comes in two shades. I got the "light", the second is probably called medium or dark, can't remember but its darker than the light anyway. Really can't wait to try this!

5.

Blusher

This was the first product that screamed my name lol! Talking 'bout "Bemi, come get meeeeeeeeeee" (in Usher's voice). I have the Tara blush palette but this shade isn't there (these people just know how to make you buy and buy). Dunno if my iPhone camera did justice to the colour this beauty is, but it's gorrrrg! It's in the shade "Gimbiya".

See!

I'll try those i haven't and get back to say what i think about them!

Enjoy the holidays!

 

Mmmmwah!

Bemi.

Crazy title right? 

I know... I know... LOL!

 Yeah! So i felt like creating a different look for myself... I'm really not a colour-colour person on a norm (i love nudes and black) and i thought "pink" and then came up with this 

Took so many photos with some "not normal" (lol) facial expressions

....and then the joke came
