L.A Girl Make up Review
Hi friends how are you all?? Hope you are doing well. I have been so busy over the summer holidays, that I havn't had time to blog much. I have been upto so many things, did so much travelling and shopping, going places, etc. Literally it's so exhausting! π§
I have a lot of catching up to do right now, so do excuse some of my posts, as I am trying to backdate as many events as possible! π
Anyways back to the blog. Today's post will be about L.A Girl cosmetics.
L.A Girl cosmetics have become a recent obsession for me. Over the summer period during my travels to various places, I have got quite a few L.A. Girl cosmetics. After trying and using these products, i have developed a liking for this brand that I actually have a small collection now! π L.A Girl cosmetics have been around for some length of time, it just happens that I discovered them recently.
For me L.A Girl cosmetics cannot be found locally, so either I order them online from Beauty retailers or go physically to other towns to get them. And so that's exactly what I did.
At first I used to order some products from Beauty Bay. Obviously not knowing the true color of some shades, I often made wrong decisions, resulting in returns or keeping it anyway. Also there was some noticable price differences. Online would be slightly more costly, unlike if I physically go get it from a shop it would be more cheaper. For example; the HD Pro foundation costs £11.00 online on Beauty Bay. But the same foundation in a beauty shop cost me £7.99 π±
That is quite a bit of price difference, but at least I am able to see the shade for myself aswell as test it. So basically, I am making a saving aswell as making a right choice, as I won't be getting the wrong shade! And there wont be the need for returns either! π So by doing this I saved myself some money aswell as buy some products in bulk. Not to mention the correct shades! Although it was a bit of a travel to the beauty shop, it was well worth it! Simply because I had more choice and variety. I could see the shades/colors for myself, I was saving some money and also the fabulous offers that were available at the shop, which made me want to buy in bulk! π
Okay so let me tell you about this awesome beauty shop that I discovered! It's called ' Beauty Queen Cosmetics '. This shop is in Bedford. It's based around the Bedford shopping centre, on the outside. It specialises in make up, beauty products, and wigs & hair accessories for black/african people. I have seen may asian people go into this shop aswell, maybe not necessarily for wigs or hair products. But maybe for beauty products and most obviously make up. The first time I came to this shop, I was amazed at all their make up brands. They have soo much variety, lots of funky colors, and amazing offers too!
They had brands that you know well aswell as not heard of before.
Nevertheless, they had testers available so you can test & make the correct color choice.
The variety of products in the shop was Huge!! π€
The best bit of this shop is that although they had many offers like buy one get one free, 3 for £10 etc, I was able to mix and match accross the range! Which is why I love this shop even more! π From the outside the shop doesn't look all that major, although people will just go in for a specific item, or curious to know what else is available. But inside the shop, it's a really big place with at least 3 aisles displaying so many brands, products and accessories. L.A Girl make up is a decent brand with good quality products. I have used a many of their products, satisfied by the quality and most importantly the price. Although having to travel a bit to get to my favourite shop, it is well worth it! You also get to check out the area, and do other shopping, saving money and also enjoying yourself.
I really like this area, it's different with some history & culture and you can escape to a different town than your normal boring hometown! π
From Beauty Queen Cosmetics store, I have purchased liquid foundations, compact powders, lipsticks, lipglosses, lipliners etc. But today I will only talk about the L.A Girl brand. Here are some of the products that I have bought:
♧ L.A Girl HD Pro Foundation shade #Beige £7.99
♧ Matte Velvet lipstick shade #Snuggle £3.99
♧ L.A Girl Pro B.B Cream shade #light to medium £4.99
♧ Matte Velvet lipstick in shade # Va-Voom £3.99
♧ L.A Girl Pressed powder compact in shade #Buff £4.99
♧ Matte flat finish pigment gloss in shade #Backstage. £3.99
All these products were bought from Beauty Queen Cosmetics store in Bedfrod over the course of a few weeks during the Summer holidays. That was when I first discovered them there & went crazy to get some more etc! π
HD Pro Foundation
I really love this foundation. It's a really good high coverage foundation that feels soft & lightweight. Easily blendable, lasts most of the day and is suitable for all skin types. The 1st time I used this, it reminded me of Maybelline's 24hr foundation. The formula is more or less like that aswell as coverage & blendability. The price is almost similar too, just that Maybelline has 30ml of product, & L.A Girl has 28ml of product. But being an American brand, I like it & would recommend it π
Matte flat finish Pigment Gloss
This lipgloss is quite good. The pigmentation of it is very nice. I just feel the application of it doesn't seem to go on smoothly. Looks patchy but after it dries up, doesn't look too bad. The formula feels slippery against the lips when first applied, but dries smoothly and doesn't feel bad afterwards. It lasts sometime even after eating & drinking. So not that bad of a product. But I must say the color shades available are amazing, as all the colors are gorgeous! π
HD Pro Pressed powder Compact
I really like this powder. It delivers a great finish just like the foundation. Soft lightweight silky powder, easily blendable. Doesn't clog pores and mattifies with a good amount of coverage time. This powder is suitable for on the go applications, as it has a handy built in mirror and a sponge to keep you looking your best wherever you may be! π
Matte Velvet Lipsticks
Oh my goodness what can I say about these lipsticks?? I absolutely love them! π I have never worn anything like these, and I must say I am π―% satisfied with these! Available in over 20 shades, these lipsticks are a must for every lipstick lover! A smooth creamy formula, has a matte look effect. Glides on without tugging & has a good amount of wearabilty. The pigment is awesome & every single shade is gorgeous! It's such a comfortable feeling of matte, 1 lipstick wasn't enough! I highly recommend these lipsticks, as even i'm sure you will agree that it's nothing like what you've worn before! π
Pro B.B Cream
This B.B cream by L.A Girl is also not too bad either. It's like the normal B.B creams, except being their version. A lightweight creamy formula, giving somewhat coverage. Feel's smooth and does not clog pores. A fresh feeling B.B cream ideal when you don't want a heavy feeling on your face. Moisturises and gives a clean looking finish on your face. So not to bad, ideal for people who don't wear alot of make up π€
