MAC X Mariah Carey Collection

Hi everyone!

image2

Look how gorgeous this MACxMariahCarey Collection! I love the boxes and packaging it is super glam! But i have to say i expected more of the quality, the packages are very “plastic” in real if you know what i mean.

image3

I tried my best to hold myself and not to buy the entire collection! so i picked the colors that i would truly use, which btw i couldnt let myself touch or swatch anything when i first got them, my heart broke when i had o swatch them like two weeks later.

Anyways, this is what i got from MACxMariahCarey collection, i got everything online from www.maccosmetics.ae (now you can order online, pay by card or cash on delivery if you are in the UAE), i am not sure yet if this is open for the GCC.

As for “My Mimi” Extra Dimension Skinfinish i got it from a seller on instagram, you can check my ig page for other pics and related accounts (ig: @thejulybloom).

Lancome Juicy Shakers

image3

Im sooo in love with Lancome Juicy Shakers! My sister introduced me to it, of course i have seen this product before and know what it is and how it works but never tried it until my sister raved about it.

 

What it actually is a mixture of beneficial oils and a color tint, all in this tiny bottle, before using it you have to shake it very well then open the lid, with the sponge apply it all over lips.

Now the oil will super moisturize the lips and the color tint will give you a hint of color, i went for dark colors to get the maximum tint possible, so i went for red which is Cherry Symphony 151, and berry which is Berry in Love 283.

I ordered them both online at www.sephora.ae and each one is for AED 120/-

Jade 180 Glam Sculpting Set

FullSizeRender

 

This sculpting set by Luxie Beauty in collaboration with Jade (aka @jadeywadey180) was on my wishlist since it was launched, i loved the pink color and the brushes look soft and fluffy, Jade herself made it look like a must have for every girl who loves contouring and highlighting.

I didn’t get it at the beginning for so many reasons (mainly because i had other items on my wishlist which i wanted to get before) but then there was a discount code, i cannot remember who posted it but i thought it would be great to buy the whole set for such a good discount, i believe it was on 30% discount.

The original price of the set if $80 and after discount i got it for $52 !! which i believe is amazing for the whole set. Now i got the set around 2 months ago but i didn’t get the chance to use it yet, so i will leave the review for another post once i use them.

Dior Nude Air Foundation

IMG_1888

Just got this new Dior Nude Air foundation last week and i have only tried once, i still cannot build an opinion just from one use, i have to at least be wearing it for 3 days in a row to make sure it doesnt break me out too. Will let you know how i feel about it in few days.

الاسبوع الي طاف اخذت فونديشن جديد من ديور اسمه ديور نود اير واستخدمته مرة وحدة بس فماقدر احكم عليه من استخدام مرة وحدة، بالعادة عشان احكم على اي فونديشن لازم استخدم على الاقل ٣ ايام ورا بعض عشان اشوف بعد اذا يطلع لي حبوب في ويهي او لا فان شاء الله رح انزل لكم ريفيو قريبا.

Beauty Blender Micro.Mini

image2

This tiny beauty blender is made to be used for small and narrow areas like applying concealer, highlight and contour.

It is used exactly like a regular beauty blender but as i said for small and narrow areas.

Look at the difference in size, the one on left is how it looks dry and on right how it expands when its wet.

image6

This was a first failure attempt to use the micro.mini beauty blender to blend concealer, the amount of product was too much for its small size, it works better with much thicker formula like cream highlight or contour.

CHANEL Dentelle Precieuse Illuminating Powder

image8

Hello everyone, i know i have been away for a while and sorry about that!! its just me being lazy and posting more on instagram, if you dont follow me please do i post there almost on a daily basis and this is my name TheJulyBoom

Today i will just show you a couple of photos of Chanel Dentelle Illuminating Powder, i havent used it yet and i dont think i will use it anytime soon, i dont even want to swatch it and ruin this beautiful dentelle-like design, i will keep it untouched for a few months until i get bored of its look and start using it

I heard that it was launched exclusively in Bloomingdales Dubai for a short period of time, i dont have any more details about it, but i got mine from a seller on instagram and i waited a really long time for it to arrive, i believe it was about a month or so.

Hello everyone and sorry for being late in posting anything, honestly i have been facing a problem with WordPress. I used to upload everything directly from my iPhone through WordPress app and i used to resize the images within the app but after the last app update there isnt any resize option anymore and honestly working from my laptop is a bit tiring so that’s why it took me a while to update.

مرحبا يا بنات وسوري أدري اني وايد طولت هل مرة بس والله مب بيدي كنت قبل استخدم برنامج ووردبرس مباشرة من تلفوني وكنت انزل الصور واغير حجمهم مباشرة من البرنامج بس بعد التحديت الأخير غيروا فيه كم شغلة ومن بينهم تغيير حجم الصور وعشان جي تأخرت لاني بالنهاية اضطريت اني انزل كل الصور في اللابتوب واشتغل منه وهذا بصراحة ياخذ مني وقت وتعب وايد

My picks from the collection

So my post today will be about my picks from MAC X Sharon and Kelly Osbourne collection, it was launched online and i ordered what i wanted but i mentioned this on my instagram account that the launch was a bit shady, the products was already on website and nobody knew about it, there wasnt an email nor there was anything on MAC’s front page, so people who knew already ordered what they wanted and many products were out of stock by the time it was “officially” launched. I knew from an instagramer that the products were available during that “shady” launch and i checked the website, the lipsticks were gone and i only found one shade, also the small buffer brush was also sold out. I managed to get them later because MAC sometimes restocks some of the items days or weeks later but when i took the photos i still didnt have them so there will be another post dedicated to the missing pieces.

موضوع اليوم بيكون عن مشترياتي من كولكشن ماك بالتعاون مع شارون وكيلي اوزبورن، طلبت المنتجات من موقع ماك الأمريكي وانا تكلمت عن هل موضوع في انستجرام بس الطريقة الي نزلت فيها الكولكشن كانت جدا مبهمة وغامضة وعلى قولتنا “من تحت لتحت” ، الله يجزاها خير وحدة في انستجرام نبهت البنات انه المكياج موجود في الموقع من قبل لاينزل رسمي لا ايميل ولا حتى كان موجود في صفحة ماك الرئيسية والي كانوا عندهم خبر طلبوا الي يبونه وانا اول ماعرفت على طول جيكت الموقع وخذت الي أبيه بس للأسف كانت الأرواج مخلصة بس حصلت لون واحد وبعد الفرشاة الصغيرة كانت مخلصة. أنا رجعت بعد فترة طلبتهم من الموقع لما ماك نزلت ستوك جديد لبعض المنتجات وخذت الباقي بس لما صورت الصور بعدهم ماوصلوني فان شاء الله بيكون لهم بوست منفصل

So now i will leave you with pictures of the lovely products, i havent used all of them yet but generally they are beautiful and i am in love with them, i havent regretted buying anything from this collection and i am glad i did get what i got. If you got a chance to find it anywhere then dont miss it because it is totally worth it. I will post swatches of them after this post in a different post.

الحين بخلكم مع صور الكولكشن الي خذته بصراحة بعدني ماجربت كل المنتجات بس وايد حبيتهم نوعهم وجودتهم وايد حلوة وماندمت اني خذت شي منهم بالعكس وايد فرحانة اني خذت الي أبيه وطلعوا حلوين لما شفتهم جدامي. اذا حصلتوا هل كولكشن في اي مكان او لما ينزل عندنا في الخليج لاتفوتونه لانه فعلا يستاهل. بعد هذا البوست بحط وراه مباشرة بوست ثاني فيه سواتش للألوان

My Picks! MAC By Request 2014

20140416-195208.jpg

 

I was never interested in purchasing any of the previous MAC By Request releases until the last one i had to buy the lipsticks and the glosses, i got all three lipsticks in Glam, Hoop and Pink Poodle in addition to the glosses in Hoop and Pink Poodle, i didnt get Glam because i never use red glosses and i got a couple i didnt use so far, also there were three eyeshadows but i skipped them.

ماك من فترة بسيطة منزلين كولكشن اسمه باي ركويست وهذا النوع من الكولكشن يكون اختيار مكياج نازل في كولكشنات قديمة من ماك ويكون فيه تصويت عليهم والي يفوز بأعلى نسبة تصويت ينزل في الكولكشن، ولامرة خذت اي شي نازل من باي ركويست الا هل مرة وايد حبيت الألوان فخذت الأرواج الثلاثة اسماءهم جلام  وهووب وبينك بودل وبعد خذت جلوسين اسماءهم هووب وبينك بودل. ماخذت الجلوس الأحمر لاني ماستخدمهم واصلا عندي اثنين من قبل ماستخدمتهم وغير هذا كان نازل معاهم ثلاث ايشادو بس ماخذت منهم

After swatching them and using a couple i fell in love with Hoop, it is pink with a hint of coral, very bright and summery and has a Satin finish, i couldnt believe that this came on top of the list of my favorite lipsticks!! I wanted to buy more but unfortunately they were already sold out so i checked ebay and ordered 3 more! Yes i loved it this much!

اول ماجربت الألوان عرفت بالضبط شو اللون الي حبيته وشو الي ماحبيته، كبداية لون هووب ورري وفيه شوي لون بطيخي وملمسه ساتان ولونه وايد حلو للصيف كان رهيب جدا واستخدمته على طول وهو الحين من الأرواج المفضلة عندي وادري انه بيخلص بسرعة فجيكت الموقع مرة ثانية بس كان مخلص وفاضطريت اني اجيك موقع اي باي وحصلته وطلبت منه ٣ زيادة!! لهرجة حبيت اللون

As for Pink Poodle i was really disappointed because i heard so many good reviews about it, first of all i was disappointed to see that the finish is Glaze! i dont even what this means!! There is nothing special about the color but it is very bright fuschia and very similar to alot of colors so it can be easily duped, but the thing i didnt like about it that it feels alot like gloss, even Cremsheen finish which i dont like by MAC has feels alot better than this Glaze!! I will find a way to use it like adding it on a top of matte color or something.

بالنسبة للروج الثاني الي هو بينك بودل هو وردي فاقع ومافيه اي شي مميز وممكن يتكرر اللون وايد وفي كل ماركة بس الشي الي ماحبيته فيه هو انه وصفه كان جليز! أصلا مافهمت شو هذا ماحبيته خفيف مثل الجلوس ووايد يشابه ملمس أرواج ماك الكريم شين الي يكونون فاتحين ومايعطون لون قوي وايد، ماحس نفسي بستخدمه بروحه بس ممكن اني احطه فوق روج نود أو فاتح او ممكن اخلطه مع روج ثاني

Glam is a matte red, very beautiful! I can easily see myself wearing it in a special occasion, i love this shade of Red, very beautiful and gorgeous red. I am glad that i got this shade but since i dont wear red alot i didnt worry much about having a back up.

الروج الثالث اسمه جلام وهو مات مطفي وأحمر، اللون وايد حلو وعجيب ودرجة الأحمر الي أنا أحبها ومب ندمانة اني اشتزيت هذا اللون، بس ماقكرت اني باخذ زيادة منه لاني ماستخدم الأحمر وايد وأدري انه بيطول عندي

As for the glosses, i got the shades Hoop and Pink Poodle, both were very nice even for Pink Poodle!! i like using those bright glosses over nude and light lipsticks to add a pop of color or sometimes i change a color by adding a different tone on top, like pink over orange.

بالنسبة للجلوسات خذت لونين منهم اسماءهم هووب و بينك بودل مثل الأرواج، حبيتهم وايد الوانهم قوية ومبينة عدل واحب استخدمهم فوق روج نود او لون خفيف عشان يعطيه لون او اخلط مع لون ثاني مثل روج برتقالي وفوقه جلوس وردي
