Review - Rimmel's Lasting Finish - 25 Hour Foundation

I have recently become a fan of liquid foundations and can't stop experimenting with 'em. I previously used to use stick foundation on my clients (that's what is prevalent here and I do use it on clients who need extra coverage) but many of my clients did not need alot of coverage. So as per my make-up philosophy "less is more" I'm on a hunt to find best possible solution for my different clients with different skin needs to give them natural and comfortable base that they'd love me for.

I have recently added Rimmel's Lasting Finish 25 hour foundation to my vanity. Starting with 3 shades:

These can cover fair to tan skin tone after I mix and match and will work on most of my clients but you can never have enough. All 3 have yellow undertones which is again Okay for Asian skin but this line offer foundations with pink undertone as well so you have a good variety to choose from. 

Review: It gives medium coverage and I have to use concealer on problem areas to get a flawless base. It's great for normal to combination skin with its semi-matte finish but I wouldn't recommend it to people who have oily or dry skin. It is a longwear foundation as it says; wouldn't melt away and is light weight.

My lip shade pick for 2013 - Addicted!

Im obsessed with this lipstick shade and the best part.. it goes with almost any color you're wearing! Only when wearing during the daytime I lighten it a bit by pressing a tissue paper in between my lips.

Get great lashes.. Naturally! Tried & Tested

I have been considering lash extensions and lash perming for a while but couldn't get myself to all the chemical treatment. Then I discovered mother nature's beauty fix - Castor Oil. It works like magic! 

I am a little impatient and I need to see the result in days; so take my words for it. With in less than 2 weeks my lashes were thicker, healthier and longer! For my ease, I stored Castor oil (plain Castor oil) in an empty mascara container:

Apply it to your lashes before you go to bed as part of your nightly beauty regimen and let it work over the night. 

You'd see the results for yourself. And when you do, don't forget to share it with me ;) at https://www.facebook.com/sakt88
