VITAMIN C FACIAL TONER, HYALURONIC ACID SERUM,  AND YOUTH EXPRESS EYE GEL!!

I started using all of these products immediately upon arrival. 

Here are my before and after pictures.

@MrsElegantBeauty

**After washing my face and patting it dry I began with the Vitamin C Facial Toner.

The toner has a light orange smell that I found to be pleasant. I held the product 6-8 inches from my face and sprayed about 3 times. Taking a cotton ball I dabbed the product all over my face and neck area. It dries very quickly. 

I would describe the feeling this product gives as light and refreshing. I could feel my skin was developing more moisture each day. My dry skin doesn't seem as dry any more. I overall love this product. 

 I would rather it not have a spray nozzle but I can see it creates a quick application for those in a hurry. 

**After the toner I applied the Hyaluronic Acid Serum. 

The serum has a light feel. It is not overly sticky. I apply about a half a dropper to my finger and that amount covers my face and neck. This product takes about a min to dry. This product definitely made my skin look more radiant. I felt like the life was coming back. My skin is evening out so well. It also does a fantastic job filling in pores. This product works very well with the toner.

This product does have a light scent to it. It is neither bad or good. The smell does fade upon drying.

**The last product I applied was the Youth Express Eye Gel.

For years I have had horrible under eye circles and have struggled with wrinkles that crease my makeup under my eyes. I have tried several product and none has helped like this one. In the short time I have used this product my circles have faded, my skin tone has evened out, and my whole face just seems brighter and younger. Only being 27 and having people constantly making remarks about you looking tired is definitely a self confidence killer. I full recommend this product to everyone!

This product is a bit sticky when you start to dab it on but dries matte within 3 minutes.

ALL OF THESE PRODUCTS CAN BE APPLIED TO THE SKIN BEFORE MAKEUP APPLICATION. 

I personally have found they help my makeup go on smoother and prefer to put them on about 15 mins before my primer and foundation.

Overall my review is an incredibly positive one. I am so glad I took the opportunity to work with this company.

Please be sure to check out these products and many others from InstaNatural. I can not wait to work with the rest of their products.

Surreal Makeup is 100% Pure Mineral Makeup. It contains no Lake, Dyes, Organic Fillers or Harsh Chemicals and it is naturally water resistant and hypo-allergenic.

Surreal Makeup is super pigmented and the color will last all day without fading and will not fold into the creases of the eye lid, yet cleans up easily with soap & water or a baby wipe. One jar of eye shadow will normally will last six months to a year depending on frequency of use since a little bit goes a long way!

My Review

Surreal Makeup is an incredible company. I was very impressed with how fast my package was shipped. I always look when I open a package to make sure there is no fallout. 

The package was very clean and each jar was shrink wrapped, had a sifter, and there was a sticker over the sifters.

The 5 gram jars were full and easy to use once I had them open. I put the lid on, tapped a couple times lightly, and had enough pigment to use for my entire look.

I was impressed with how each and every color had its own special sparkle to it. My favorites were most definitely Rock Star which is a  dark grey purple shadow with blue and purple sparkles in it, Feather is a shimmery teal shadow like no other I have seen, & Crystalline a pretty pink with loads of pink sparkles!

I loved all the colors so much it was hard to pick favorites. I would recommend this company for its obvious expertise for making quality makeup.  

With this company a little pigment goes a long way & the beauty lasts for hours!

Plus I thought it was super nice for them to send an adorable packaged 5 gram jar of flirt to giveaway to one of my lucky fans! Be sure to check out my facebook page for that upcoming giveaway.

Something New:
 The company includes a tooth pick in each package. Instead of removing the sticker over the sifter you just poke a hole in one of the holes while leaving the other holes covered. This way the product doesn't get all over the lid and eventually in your makeup bag.

I most definitely recommend you check out this company very soon!

Be sure to stop by Surreal Makeup soon and tell them MrsElegantBeauty sent you!

My Review:

Just FAB Cosmetics not only has a friendly owner but very fast shipping. The pigments were packaged well and there was no fallout in the envelope or in the jar lids.

Each jar was full and packaged well. They were all shrink wrapped and easy to open. The packaging was very classy and welcoming. I could read everything on the jar clearly and it looked very professional.

I loved both the pigment and shadows. 
The colors were very true to the online pictures and very satisfying.

I had to use very little to get my desired color and coverage. Fallout was minimal.
When the shadows and pigment were mixed with water the easily glided on to create and eyeliner effect. 

I would recommend this product.

MY REVIEW:

I have heard some great stuff about this product so naturally I was very excited to try it. I was a little disappointed in it but it wasn't the products fault :-/ The product I received from influenster for review was for scrunching hair that I imagine is already wavy or curly hair. I have seen women with curly hair use it and it curls right up and does its job! I unfortunately do not have curly hair. I tried it once as directed after towel drying with a quarter sized amount. It did nothing but make my hair look a little greasy. The next time I made sure my hair was more damp and dumped a large amount in my hands and saturated my hair. I then blow dried and got the kinky moves i was looking for. For me it turned out to be more beach wavy. I would recommend this imparticular product for women with curly hair. For me not so much!  Although it does have a fabulous smell and doesn't make your hair hard when you use it like gels or sprays. Give it a try if you have naturally wavy or curly hair!

SWATCHES OF DARK SHADOWS PALLET! 

Over the primer included.

MY REVIEW!

 I really like this product it is very good quality. I think it has great pigmentation especially over a NYX jumbo pencil in milk. Although it does work good with the included primer!

I love the variety of colors and the ease of blending. The slight sparkle gives my smokey eye something special and I love that.

There is one downfall to this product for me. I really really don't like the fact that the shadows are next to the creamy illuminating cream & primer. The shadow sticks to it and eventually ruins the ability to use the primer and illuminating cream. No matter what I did I couldn't keep them separated. I would have been happy just to buy the shadows.. and then purchase the primer separately. The illuminating cream felt unnecessary to me. Over all I really love the product and think that it is well worth the price just for the shadows. I would buy the other pallet's!
