BEAUTY: REVIEW ON ABSOLUTE NEW YORK #ABSOLUTELYICONIC



Hai readers, I’m back again with Absolute New York, my all-time favourite brand. Concisely, they have a lot of various -products for eyes, face and lips which made me want to bring all home indeed. The reasons I love about their products are, they come with several of choices & colors, affordable prices with good qualities and they always have something new that can impress me. Still remember about my last makeup competition with Absolute New York in instagram #ABSOLUTELYICONIC ? It was fun and challenging indeed, and I got some gift from them that made me very excited as I opened it. Guess what? Here we go!

ICON PALETTE 
ABSOLUTE NEW YORK: ICON PALETTE "EXPOSED"
ICON PALETTE comes in 4 option-series (exposed, twilight, smoked and matte exposed) and mine is “exposed” which has shimmer & matte colors in one palette. Well, I was so happy when I got this, obviously because it’s one of my wistlist-item I want.
 R e v i e w s:

  • About the packaging, it made of aluminum, but still doesn’t look like cheaper palette because of the design and made of thick aluminum (it’s still feel lightweight anyway).
  • Inside the palette, you will get a large mirror and dual-brush which is blending brush and flat brush. Personally, I really like it, not like other free-brush that come from the palette. This ICON’s brush is very soft, easy to pick up the products and do the blending task smoothly ( you should try it!).
  • Overall, the palette comes with cool-tone, has 2 matte colors which is suit for base and 10 shimmer colors. I think it still lack of matte-color but overall all the colors are wearable and suits for day & night makeup look.
  • Even it’s too powdery and many fall out, most of the shimmer-colors are pigmented, easy to blend, also the shimmer are very smooth (not messy) after I applied on my lid. And for the matte colors, it’s not too pigmented, you need to apply primer before so the color will pop up.
  • For you who are still beginner in makeup, I’m very recommended this palette for you. You can play safe with this palette.
  • Affordable price, it costs IDR 225K and you can get this at Absolute new York’s counter. 

MODEST MATTE LIQUID LIPSTICK
Well, I think this is the most wanted product so far, matte lipcream will always be a must item for every makeup jungkies, doesn’t it? And I guess most of you will say, lipcream makes lips dry?  Actually, I was agree until I meet Absolute New York Modest Matte lipcream, I change my mind.

R e v i e w s:
  • About the packaging, it comes in long tube and a long stiff applicator, Tbh, I don’t really like the applicator but still easy to apply on lips.
  • Full coverage and stay on like a lipstick.
  • Weightless-matte-finish
  • longlasting
  • It’s Kiss-proof and waterproof.
  • Easy to clean up (you must use a lip remover, not water because it won't work) and doesn’t get messy/smudge everywhere.
  • You will never get bored because it comes with various of colors. 12 colors to choose! 
ABSOLUTE NEW YORK MODEST MATTE: MML01 LACY

Because I got lacy color and it doesn’t really suit me. It looks like ginger color on the picture but actually after I applied on my lips it became too pale like beige color. So for you who has the same skintone like me, I don’t really recommend this color for you (it’s too pale). And for you who has a darker lip color, this Lacy color suits for your base color.

ALL PURPOSE PENCIL
Last but not least, all purpose pencil, “a must-have versatile tool for beauty arsenal”, I agreed indeed.

It designs to be used in three-ways;
  • Concealing blemishes and imperfections, 
  • Brighten inner water line,
  • As a Lip liner
  • Let me add some again, it’s useful for correcting, make brows in a good shape or shape up cut-crease.
I don’t really recommend this to concealing blemishes, it will turn cakey because you need re-apply repeatedly. And personally, I think it's more suitable for shaping than concealing. Moreover, it comes in 4 creamy-colors that flawlessly fit any skin tones.

here's my date look with ICON PALETTE
anw, I'm using Absolute New York Perfect Pair - Duo Parfait in Old Hollywood for my lips.
