sculpt and contour review

make up revolution contour, highlight and blush

 

recently I discovered makeup revolution, its a newish brand out and incredible prices as low as £1.00, I've read and heard amazing things about this particular brand of makeup such as it being amazing pricing, durability and most of all INCREDIBLE dupes for mac and sleek makeup.

 

 

now I've always had that goodness and the annoyingness of having a December birthday, now everyone can obviously see why having a December birthday would be frustrating. I have to wait a whole year for my birthday and Christmas, but, its also amazing because its that time of year where all the makeup and beauty gift boxes come out so I have a great selection of make up every year.

and this birthday (last year)I was lucky enough to get my hand on one of the makeup revolution Christmas gift boxes, I absolutely loved it came with such amazing items such as blusher, eyeliner, bronzer, nail vanish and lip glosses, but this post is all about the sculpt and contour kit.

 

 

The sculpt and contour kit comes with three different powders, a bronzer (brown), blusher(pinkish) and a highlighter (white).

on the make up revolution web page there description is written as follows:

 

"Achieve SCULPTED & CONTOURED Professional Excellence
Our amazing kit provides everything you need for a professional sculpted and contoured finish. This Multi-tasking Handbag Favourite does everything, to be used Together to shape, or individually to freshen up and brighten throughout the day.
Bronze and Blush Powders to achieve a precise contour, and new shades of our amazing HIGHLIGHTERS to finish by BRIGHTENING and illuminating"

 

the above text is written on the makeup revolution website and I can 100% agree with everything they say. at first the contour kit was a bit of a odd colour for my skin type but then I realised just how amazingly pigmented the whole makeup rev collection was, it made me realise that I was adding far to much bronzer to my brush and needed to apply it more delicate, the bronzer is rather brown but it looks amazing on and beautiful light once applied correctly.

 

you apply this bronzer is a down ward angel starting from the top of your checks following down the just underneath the check bone in the hollows of your checks.

 

the highlighter appears to be really white it you apply to much to your brush but theres a technique to applying this istead of brushing like strokes you brush the brush along really fast across the highlighter to gain some on the brush but not loads to make the skin a different colour, you apply this item to the hollows of your cheeks and to 0the none bronzed sections to give that highlighted contoured effect.

 

the blusher in my palette comes in a beige, pink which matches perfectly to my skin and doesn't make me looked washed out due to my irritable skin tone of pale and beige, its very tricky to match them u, but I've found a great item which works with the tone of the skin.

make up revolution birthday haul

(warning contains loads of pictures and swatches on my arms, also tattoos)
 this is not a review (review to come soon) this is a birthday haul
 

when I saw a few reviews on make-up revolution I thought this make up brand looks amazing and I decided to get my little bum down to Superdrug and have a look at there awesome collection, when i went to Superdrug though it was actually a lot harder then I thought to get a hold of the product as not every Superdrug store actually stocks the brand.

 

after i visted about 5 different stores i finally found 2 stores that stock Make-up revolution, YES YES i know i could of ordered them online and picked them up in store or even had them delivered, but im the type of person (when trying a new brand) who likes to look and actually decided if i like the colour as things online always look different in person.

 

 

the items i brought are
box set #1 contour kit £10.00

when I saw the box set #1 contour kit I knew I had to have it this kit is amazing in every way, I've always had great difficulty finding a kit that works great for my skin type, when I was in superdrug I had picked up a few makeup brushes and a contouring kit and as it being so close to Christmas I thought i'd go take a look at the box sets they always do at Christmas and I saw this and it just jumped out at me I had heard so much about how good the contour kit was from other peoples reviews and I thought why not its £10.00 you cant go wrong with it.
this kit contains a large bronzer, a little bronzer, blusher, highlighter and a 3 piece brush set.
(review to come soon)
 
box set #2 eye set £12.50

when I saw this kit I thought wow 12.50 that is incredibly cheap and looks absolutely beautiful, I was going to be buying the eye shadow pallet anyway as I heard there a good company for dupe eye shadow of larger more expensive brands. (other peoples views) and when I saw the kit it was a lot better value for money buying the kit rather then buying everything separately and from what I can see from the swatches I've done the eye shadow is incredibly pigmented which is great as you always what your eye shadow on show, also the lip gloss is beautifully bright and shinny.

 this kit contains  a black liquid eyeliner, a pencil liner, a glitter eyeliner, a mirror, 3 lip gloss, 3 nail polishes and a 12 shade eye shadow palate and also a contour pallet 3 piece (same as above picture) .

 

 cover and conceal palette shade light £6.00

a friend of mine brought the cover and conceal pallet and she absolutely adored it, she suggested it to me as I suffer with terrible bags under my eyes and have always struggled to be able to cover them

up, i've used this once and I can happily say WOW it worked incredibly.

light pallet containing 6 concealers.

 

 lipstick shades the one and vamp £1.00 each

I saw these 2 lipsticks and loved the colours they are adorable and perfect for the winter months.
