I don’t think I ever purposefully bought anything from 3ina (pronounced mina, fyi, ’cause I know that’s been bothering you if you didn’t know). Everything I have I got in advent calendars or subscription boxes. But there hasn’t been a product yet that I haven’t liked.
I’m never tired of baked blushes. I blame the Mineralize Skinfinish frenzy the world was going through when I first got interested in makeup and MAC was the sh*t. I’ll forever be attracted to the domed, shimmery, multicoloured beauty powders. This time I’m reviewing a blush from a Greek makeup brand, Erre Due (not affiliated); they have a website and ship worldwide, so no need to wait for a trip to Greece to get your hands on their stuff.
After reviewing the new Guerlain powder, I thought I’d revisit a less expensive blush/bronzer hybrid alternative. This is one of Flormar’s products that I haven’t gotten around to review, yet it’s my most used from them.
I don’t know if it is because when I started to get into makeup MAC’s Mineralized Skinfinishes were all the rage, but I have a soft spot for a baked cheek product with a marble looking pan. So I had to try Flormar’s version. Even though these two shades are very similar. Hey, at least I can write a review about them (this is becoming a dangerously enabling excuse).
Ever heard of this brand? Me neither. I saw a small stand for Zao Essence of Beauty at a beauty store when we travelled to Biarritz earlier this summer. This French brand is all about being sustainable and ecological. They aim to reduce plastic and the packaging is made of bamboo.
All of the makeup if refillable. And expensive.
A while back I made a post about all the beauty shopping I did on my honeymoon trip to Santorini. On that haul, there were some Tommy G eyeshadows that I meant to review. And it only took me more than a year to write that review.
At least these are all still available.
