MUFE Flash Color Base Review

Hello Biuties!
Today's review is on this marvelous little colored case from Make Up For Ever!


This palette contains creamy and pigmented flashy colors to create an array of looks, they can be used on the eyes, lips and cheeks (be aware that some colors are not advised to be used on the eyes or the lips) on their own or as bases.
Just imagine the number of things that can be done with this!!!
You get 70g of products in a clear case and each color is contained in its own "box".
These Flash colors come in various forms, individual pots (7g) or in stick form (20g). Also the colors in this palette aren't the only colors available, you can get purple, lighter greens or pinks, or various shades of green and blue if you buy them individually.

Onto the good, the bad and the ugly truth!

MAC Prolongwear Foundation Review

Hello Biuties!
I know that this review has been long overdue but rather late than never right!
For a review of the Pro Longwear concealer just click HERE!

MAC says:
A long-wear foundation that gives up to 15 hours of wear in any environmental condition. Lightweight and creamy, applies smoothly to provide sheer to medium coverage. Even in hot and humid conditions, controls oil to keep skin fresh, natural and flawless. Provides everyday SPF protection.

Pro Longwear Foundation

{ LOVE }
  • The coverage: A lot of people say that it is medium coverage but on me I find that it gives medium to full coverage. I also think that although it is lighter than the studio fix fluid (which to me is quite a thick formula) it gives me better and fuller coverage than its sister.
  • Longevity: This foundation stays on all day! I live in a really humid and hot place and despite that the foundation doesn't melt and stays put no matter what! When I sweat I no longer have to worry about my foundation melting and leaving streaks all over my face which is such a relief! I can wipe my face with a tissue and know that the foundation won't rub off. Heaven! 
  • Something that should also be said is that since I have oily skin it isn't easy to keep the oily T-zone oil free for longer than 3 hours but with this foundation I can go on for 4-5 hours without needing much of a touch up and this is major!

    MAC Prolongwear Concealer Review

    For a review of the Pro Longwear foundation just click HERE!
    MAC Says:
    A lightweight fluid concealer that provides medium to full coverage with a comfortable, natural matte finish. Colour-true formula lasts up to 15 hours. Helps conceal and correct the look of under-eye circles, and discolorations. Comes in a clear glass vial with a matte black pump.

    { LOVE }
    • The coverage: Nice absolute full coverage concealer. I swear I've never used such a full coverage product. I have bags under my eyes and they can be quite dark and puffy but this concealer completely covers them. I've tried the select moisturecover and studio sculpt concealers and this one is the best by a mile.
    • Longevity: Just like the foundation it lasts a very longtime on the face. I tend to tear up quite a lot specially when its windy or I have the aircon on the face therefore I spend my days taping the tears away and rubbing my lashline and at the end of the day the concealer is still there! Even if I don't set it with a powder it still last a pretty long time and most importantly doesn't crease.
    • Feel: Although it is full coverage it doesn't feel heavy on the face. I love that I can build it up and without feeling that I have way too much on. However once applied it does feel sticky to the touch but as it dries it becomes a lot smoother and doesn't transfer.
