~Lumiere Skin & Beauty Bar - Blush Review!~

Hey everyone!


This is a review on the Lumiere Skin & Beauty Bar Blush in the shade Poppy.

The texture of this blush is extremely silky and smooth. The powder is very fine, which means that it will not appear cakey on your skin. When you apply this blush, your skin feels very soft and smooth.

The shade Poppy is a beautiful soft natural nude light pink color.


This product can be used as a: blush, eye shadow, and a soft all-over face color. The blush gives you a soft, healthy, pink appearance without being too harsh on your skin.

As an eye shadow, I find that this product works great blended with other eye shadows, or by itself. It will last on my lids for 3-4 hours without needing touchups or creasing.

As a blush and all-over face color, the color can last all day. However, I have noticed that on my oily skin, the color and product will fade within a few hours.

Since the powder is so fine, it can become messy during application.

This retails for:
~Large Jar - $12.00
~Sample Bag - $1.00

Pros:
~Beautiful color
~Smooth/silky texture
~Multi-purpose

Cons:
~Messy application
~Color can fade on oily skin

Overall, I rate the Lumiere Skin & Beauty Bar Blush at 4.25 out of 5 sugarcubes! This is a good multi-purpose product to keep in your makeup bag.

~Lumiere Skin & Beauty Bar - Mineral Foundation Review!~

Hey everyone!


This is a review on the Lumiere Skin & Beauty Bar Mineral Foundation.

The foundation powder is very fine and soft in texture. It blends into the skin with ease and does not appear cakey. However, due to the fineness of the powder, I find that application can be a bit messy, if you are not careful.

Besides using this as a foundation, I use it as an under eye concealer. I just dab a little extra with my fingers underneath my eyes and gently blend. This little step instantly brightens my under eye circles, and makes me appear awake!

The coverage of the foundation is light to medium.

I use one of my kabuki brushes to apply it. This is the best type of brush to use, because I can quickly and easily buff the Mineral Foundation into my skin.

This foundation can be a bit drying on skin, but with my oiliness, it is not a big problem for me.

Lumiere Skin & Beauty Bar has several foundation shades, which means you can find your perfect match!


This retails for:
XX Large Jar (12 gm) - $18.00
Large Jar (14 gm) - $12.00
Sample Bag - $1.00

Pros:
~Multi-purpose
~Fine/smooth texture
~Does not appear cakey
~Easy/quick to buff in

Cons:
~Can be a bit messy
~Can be drying on skin

Overall, I rate the Lumiere Skin & Beauty Bar Mineral Foundation at 3.75 out of 5 stars. I think the foundation has great coverage, and I love the fact that I can use it as an under eye concealer as well!

~Lumiere Skin & Beauty Bar - Eye Shadow Pigment Review!~

Hey everyone!

This is a review on the Lumiere Skin & Beauty Bar eye pigments.

These eye pigments are absolutely gorgeous! When you apply them on your eyes, they catch the light, giving you a beautiful sheen on your lids!

They are great to use by themselves, or with any other eye shadows you have. You can easily build-up the intensity of color on your lids. These eye pigments can be used either dry for a more subtle look, or wet for a more foil/dramatic look.

The texture is extremely fine and silky. I use either a brush or my finger to apply the pigments.

I find that these eye pigments will stay vibrant and creaseless for about 4-5 hours. After that, I will normally do a quick touchup.

There can be a slight issue with fallout, if you do not tap off your brush well. Also, the sample size jars do not have shifters, so if you drop the jar with the lid off, you could have a huge mess on your hands.



Top to Bottom:
~Twilight Green
~Purple Haze

This retails for:
~Large Jar (2 gm) - $8.00
~Mini Jar Sample (1 gm) - $5.00
~Refill Vial (2 gm) - $8.00

Pros:
~Vibrant, beautiful colors
~Lasts for hours without touchups
~Silky texture
~Easy to use wet or dry

Cons:
~Can have slight fallout
~No shifter in sample jars

Overall, I rate these eye pigments at 4.75 out of 5 sugarcubes! They are extremely vibrant and beautiful colors that will easily complete your makeup collection! Plus, they are affordable!

~Lumiere Skin & Beauty Bar - Lumi Lip Gloss Review!~

Hey everyone!

This is a review on the Lumiere Skin & Beauty Bar Lumi Lips Gloss in the shade Violaceous.

I received a small sample size of the lip gloss, and I must say the sample is adorable! This is the perfect size to take on a vacation, or to carry in your purse!



Violaceous is a stunning plum color with a light shimmer.


The texture of the gloss is non-sticky and very smooth. It is a very light weight gloss, and at times I do not even feel as if I have any on!


The gloss looks beautiful by itself or over any lip color. I find that without eating or drinking, the gloss will last 3-4 hours without needing touchups.

There is a very slight plastic smell to the gloss, but the smell disappears during application.

Retail prices are:
~Mini Size Lip Wand - $3.00
~Large Lip Wand - $8.50
~Large Squeeze Tube - $8.50

Pros:
~Non-sticky
~Very smooth/silky
~Gorgeous colors available
~Lasts for hours without touchups
~Different sizes available

Cons:
~Slight plastic smell

Overall, I rate the Lumiere Skin & Beauty Bar Lumi Lip Gloss at 4.25 out of 5 sugarcubes! I think it is one of the non-stickiest glosses I have come across!
