Review:

This palette is easy to work with, different finishes for different looks. I didn’t experienced any fall out. I apply metallic colors with a flat brush or my fingers; if I want more intensity I wet the brush. If I use the matte colors I can use a fluffy, a flat, a detail brush or my fingers. Smooth to the touch. Nice quality and rich pigmentation. Stay put all day. Numerous looks from simple to more "night out" (smokey). When I pick any color with the brush, might kick some powder, but nothing major. As I use the palette on a flat surface, the powder that might be left I pick it with the brush for the other eye. I store the palette horizontally, so next time the remaining "loose powder" might be useful; but once more, nothing major.  I didn't notice any scent.

The Shades:

I will do my best to describe the colors of this palette.

La Palette Nude: Warm toned palette.

1- Shimmery light champagne pink. So beautiful all over the lid.

2- Metallic warm toned pink. So beautiful.

3- Matte Light/medium brown. This is a good transition shade.

4- Metallic gold. Stunning!!

5- Matte light/medium warm toned brown. Another good transition shade

6- Matte medium/dark brown. For defition, this is great.

7- Metallic bronzy gold. Nice for a night look.

8- Satin dark brown. More definition or smokey eye effect.

9- Metallic light silvery brown(ish). Honestly, this color is beautiful but I have no idea how to describe it. So beautiful all over the lid.

10- Metallic silvery champagne pink. It is so gorgeous over the lid.

Note: the metallics have some fine milled glitter, I call them shimmery or metallic for some reason, but you cannot notice them all over your face. For more intensity you can use a setting spray or wet your brush.

There's another eyeshadow palette, which I don't have, specifically created for smokey eyes. I cannot say anything about something I've never tested nor tried.

It belongs to a permanent collection: Colour Riche.

Price

USA: USD 19.99

UK: £ 14.99

Australia: AUD 29.95

I totally recommend these products.

Note: I couldn't get the smokey palette. I bought this one on Amazon. You can get good deals on that website. A couple of months ago the Nude Intense (to be reviewed in the future) was only around USD 5. 5!!!

If you ask me, I want to make a comparisson between the USA version to the UK version (L'Oréal can you hear me? Can you make this possible? And also the USA version of the smokey eye palette).

Rimmel London - Fresher Skin foundation. Reseña y Muestreo.

Rimmel London - Fresher Skin foundation.

Sitios Web: EEUU (Este producto no está disponible aún) - Reino Unido- Australia - Argentina

Tono de la reseña: 100 Ivory. (el más claro que se puede encontrar en Argentina).

Peso: 0.84 fl. oz. - 25 ml.

Muestreo (Sin flash y con flash; sólo utilicé mis dedos para aplicar esta base y para esparcirla y difuminarla, así como he hecho con todas las beses que ya reseñé y como seguiré haciendo con las futuras que reseñaré).

Antes del muestreo.

Muestreo y esparcido.

Muestreo y esparcido (y luego de difuminarlo aún más)

Muestreo y esparcido (luego de 10 minutos)

Comparación entre el que estaba sin esparcir (ahora esparcido y difuminado) con el que ya se mostraba en las fotos anteriores.

Reseña:

Viene en un frasco de vidrio. Tiene dentro un divisor de plástico blanco que evita que la tapa esté en contacto con el producto. Tiene una tapa gris. Posee un leve aroma. Esta es una base de maquillaje en gel. Se oxida hasta dos tonos. Se transfiere a la ropa. Cuando es aplicada, no importa el método que utilices ni los elementos (brochas, esponjas, etc.) la base no se esparce de manera pareja y se mueve por toda la cara. La mejor manera que he encontrado es utilizando un brocha "stippling" "stippler" y dar golpecitos en todo el rostro. Queda desnivelada, despareja en cobertura. Y se asienta sobre la piel en forma extraña. Si quieres aplicar más en una zona para nivelarla o tener mejor cobertura, queda aún más despareja. Luego de terminar con mi maquillaje, cuando aplico un "Setting Spray" (fijador de maquillaje en spray), como un último toque, queda húmeda y comienza a escurrirse levemente haciendo que quede todo hecho un "completo desastre". Esta base está pensada para personas con piel normal a grasa. Esta base no es para nada "waterproof" (resistente al agua; incluso luego de fijarla con un polvo volátil o compacto). He notado oleosidad luego de algunas horas de haberla aplicado. Enfatiza líneas de expresión (o cualquier fina línea del rostro). Su terminación es natural. Le toma bastante tiempo secarse, pero jamás se seca por completo. No puedo decir si esta base causa granitos; he tenido algunos, pero no creo que sea por usar esta base (no puedo decir mucho al respecto). Este producto no es sanitario, a no ser que no introduzcas los dedos en el frasco. Si te tocas la cara durante el día, tendrás base de maquillaje en los dedos y manos y en la zona donde tocaste habrá desaparecido. No puedes saber con exactitud la cantidad de producto a utilizar en cada aplicación, puede ser mucho o poco. Esta base no es de larga duración y se "derrite" del rostro a las pocas horas. Aspectos positivos: contiene FPS 15 y no da flashback en fotografías.

Las siguientes fotos muestran qué es lo que sucede cuando aplicas el fijador en spray cuando quieres fijar el maquillaje luego de haber terminado de maquillarte. Yo utilizo este Polvo Volátil para fijar maquillaje. Antes y luego de haber aplicado el Setting Spray (sin flash)

Como puedes ver en la primer foto no he aplicado aún el fijador en spray, en la segunda sólo apliqué una pequeña cantidad (1 sólo spray) y en la tercera he aplicado un par más. No sólo no lo fijó, sino que lo ha vuelto húmedo nuevamente.

Swatches (No flash and with flash; I only used my fingers for application and blending, like all the foundations that I already reviewed and the ones that I will review in the future).

Review:

It comes in a glass jar. There's a white cap (blockage) that separates the product from the actual product's gray cap. It has a soft scent to it. This is a gel foundation. Oxidazes at least two shades, not more than that. Transfers to your clothes. When it is applied, no matter what I used (sponges, fingers, different foundation brushes) the foundation moves around and I could get a better application dabbing with a stippling brush. Not really blendable. Patchy. Sets weird on the face. Cannot be built: when you try to build its coverage, the foundation that you already applied moves around and the area will be "a hot mess". After I finished my makeup, when I set it with a setting spray, as a final touch, gets wet, and drips down, leaving patchy areas again when "dries". This is not by any means a waterproof foundation (even after setting it with powder). This foundation is meant for combination skin (normal to oily). I got oily after a couple of hours of wearing it. It emphasizes fine lines.  Its finish is natural. It takes too much to dry, but it never fully dries. I cannot say if this foundation can cause some blemishes, I got a couple of pimples, but I think it wasn't this product (I really cannot say anything about it). The product is not sanitary, as long as you don't grab product with your fingers. If you touch your face throughtout the day, you'll get foundation on your fingers/hands and where you touched the product will be rubbed off. You cannot measure the ammount of product used in every application, it could be too much or too little. This foundation's not long lasting, and it melts off after a couple of hours in. Something possitive: it has SPF 15 and it doesn't flashback.

The following pictures show what happens when you use a setting spray for setting your foundation and powders (the very last step). I set it with a Loose Powder. Before and after applying setting spray (no flash).

As you can see, on the first picture was with no setting spray applied, on the second was only one spray and on the third I added another spray. It didn't set it, it made it wet again.
