This is a review on the Zuii Organics’ Flora Eye Shadows in the shades Mustard, Rose Mist, Bronze, and Jade!
These flora eye shadows from Zuii are absolutely dazzling! I love the fact that they are made with 100% all natural products. Their smooth velvety texture lasts all day, and doesn’t crease as long as a base is used. Zuii’s eye shadows are available in a wide range of colors to suit all skin tones.
Mustard is a stunning grain color with a sophisticated polish that looks completely natural, and perfect for a day look!
Rose Mist is a shimmering rose/bronze color that lends a little extra flair to my lids when I want to be noticed.
Bronze is a rich, chocolate brown hue that is perfect as a wash all over my lids. I like to couple it with the Mustard shade for a striking appearance.
Jade is a soft sea-green color with a beautiful sheen. I love to use this eye-catching color to wash all over my lids for a smokey, sexy appearance.
This product retails for $21.75.
Pros:
~Soft, smooth texture
~Lasts all day
~Doesn’t crease
~Gorgeous, rich colors
Cons:
~ Top layer of each eye shadow needed to be rubbed off to achieve its color
Overall, I rate this product at 4 out of 5 sugarcubes! Zuii’s eye shadows are perfect to use when I want my eyes to be the star of the show!

Whitney

This is a review on the Zuii Organic Flora Lipstick in the shades Mandarin and Cashmere!
These sophisticated matte lipsticks can be worn anytime, day or night! Their silky, smooth formulation stands out above the rest. By far, they are my favorite lip products with their exceptional quality and creamy texture.
Mandarin is a rich nude/peach color that looks fabulous by itself, or topped with a complimenting lip gloss.
Cashmere is a gorgeous muted pink hue that is absolutely stunning worn alone!
From Top to Bottom:
~Mandarin
~Cashmere
The packaging of the lipstick is sleek and sophisticated with a hint of fun. The case is perfect to pull out in front of my friends to make them green with envy, while my lips stay kissable for any occasion!
From Left to Right:
~Cashmere
~Mandarin
This product retails for $29.95.
Pros:
~Beautiful, natural color
~Smooth formulation
~Moisturizes lips
~Organic
~Lasts all day
Cons:
~Absolutely none!
Overall I rate this product at 5 out of 5 sugarcubes! These lipsticks are perfect to wear when I want my lip color to last all day!

This is a review on the Smashbox Cosmetics’ #1 Powder Brush.
This makeup brush is wonderful! It’s super soft and smooth, and feels as if I’m moving a powder puff along my skin.
I use it to apply my mineral foundation, bronzer, blush, and highlight. It works fantastically; because the brush gathers just the right amount of product to use on my face, without leaving a heavy cakey appearance.
I love the classy and sophisticated appearance of Smashbox’s #1 Powder brush. Whenever I use it, I feel as if I’m pampering myself! Moreover, I haven’t had a single bristle fallout from this brush!
This brush retails for $48.00, but I purchased it on sale for $24.00.
Pros:
~Extremely soft bristles
~Sturdy handle
~No bristle fallout
~Classy and sophisticated appearance
Cons:
~Absolutely none!
Overall, I rate the #1 Powder brush at 5 out of 5 sugarcubes! This brush is perfect to achieve flawless beauty!
This is a review on the Smashbox Cosmetics’ #3 Blending Brush.
Sadly, there are those reviews that are not good, and this is one of them. I thought adding Smashbox’s #3 Blending brush to my brush collection seemed like a great idea. It looked as if it would be the perfect brush to use when applying eye shadows. However, I was sadly mistaken because it did not live up to my expectations. Smashbox’s #3 Blending brush left my eye colors muddy, and even lost some of its bristles!
I purchased Smashbox’s # 3 Blending brush on sale directly from Smashbox.com. I had 30 days to return the brush for an exchange or full refund with no questions asked. I have not done so because their return policy did not include return shipping. They recommend returning the merchandise UPS ground insured, or use US Postal Service insured ground shipment because they are not responsible for items lost in the mail. This remedy would not be cost effective for me because by the time I mailed it, I would come close to paying full retail for it.
This product retails for $32.00, but I purchased it on sale for $16.00.
Pros:
~None
Cons:
~Does not blend eye shadows well
~Loses bristles
~Handle is not as sturdy as other brushes
Overall, I rate the Smashbox’s #3 Blending brush at 1 out of 5 sugarcubes. I found it very disappointing that Smashbox would offer such a low quality product. Regrettably, I would not be able to recommend it.
I found this delicious recipe, and thought I would share!
