Ten Dollar Challenge #4: Powder Brushes

Here we are again!

For this comparison I will review 3 powder brushes all of which I found for under $10AUD. Now these are obviously going to be completely different in quality to these you would pay $30+, but if you just want something that can put powder on your face and not make you look like you have sprouted a million black hair, $10 is fairly reasonable.

Ten Dollar Challenge #3: Concealer (again!)

Hello all!

For this first comparison I will review 2 concealers of which I found for under $10AUD. You know the drill so lets get into it!

Boudoir Eyes

The Boudoir Eyes Palette by Too Faced is VERY cute. The packaging is probably half the reason I bought it. It comes with 9 shades, 5 of which are new, all of a pink/purple variety. Three shades are matte, four are satin and two are super glittery. 

The palette also comes with a how-to-guide which can be useful for both beginners and those in a makeup rut. 

I wont go into too much detail until I start using the palette, just thought I would throw some photos your way :)

Nars Palette: Adult Content

This is a brief look into the Limited Edition  'Adult Content' Palette By Nars. It comes with four cheek products, 2 blushes, a bronzer and a highlighter. The shades are as follows Zen (bronzer), Miss Liberty (highlighter) Desire (blush) and Deep Throat (blush). All swatches are below. 

The packaging is a good size for travelling, however the small size of Zen means it only works as a contour not a bronzer. When I tried to stick my big fluffy bronzer blush in, half of Desire mixed in. I didn't really enjoy smearing bright pink on my forehead. 

I love the highlight shade, and all are super pigmented. 

I may do a further review when I use them more, but I just wanted to get this out before it sold out!

Brand Blurb #4: Michael Todd True Organics

Hello blog world!

This is a review on Michael Todd True Organics. I like everyone else jumped onto the beauty guru obsessed bandwagon and bought the entire dry/sensitive skincare line.  
I think you should know the deal by now so here is the photo of my currents products (expect the shower ones because I forgot to grab them!):

Ten Dollar Challenge #1: Stick Concealer

Hello all!

This string of posts is because although ten dollars may not seem like a lot of money to some of you, when you are still in school, or generally don't like parting with money, ten dollars can be a lot. Plus whether you think it is a little or a lot you should always be getting your moneys worth, hence the invention of this serious.

For this first comparison I will review 3 stick concealers all of which I found for under $10AUD. Now these are obviously going to be completely different in quality to these you would pay $30+, but if you just want something that can cover up dark circles and few spots without looking like little orange splotches all over your face, $10 is fairly reasonable.

I wanted to try these out because I normally not a fan of stick concealers  always opting for cream or liquid types. The 'challenge' part is that I will give my best recommendation out of the 3 (or how ever many I try). Lets get on with the mini reviews!

Note: Sorry for the two super blurry photos! I was going to retake them when I started editing on my computer, but with such a busy schedule I decided there was no point. This is all about the review, not my crappy photos :)
