One of these collections, I received the Take Me Home Collection.  Inside, it contains 6 items: lipstick, nailpolish, eyeshadow palette, lip gloss, mascara, eye and body crayon, and a 5 decorator stencil.

Last First Kiss

Kiss You

Live While Were Young

I Wish

4+1 Eyeshadow Palette


Little Black Dress
"Last First Kiss" is a nude-pink sheer lipstick.

"Live While Were Young" is a multi-dimensional gold glitter nail varnish.

"4+1 Eyeshadow Palette" has 5 shades in "Back for you" which is a velvet creme,  "Change My Mind" is a peachy shimmer,  "C'mon, C'mon" is a soft taupe,  "Little Things" is a smoky brown, and "Take Me Home" is a  golden glitter creme.

"Kiss You" is a Liquilights Glow Gloss which is an orange glitter rush lip gloss that glows to neon yellow under UV light.

"I Wish" is a warm chocolate brown eye and body crayon.

"Little Black Dress" is a volumizing mascara in perfectly black.

Here are two pictures of myself with One Direction "Take Me Home" Collection.




I love how the "4+1 Eyeshadow Palette" shades are neutral.  It has a really good finish and perfect for everyday makeup.  The lipstick didn't really went with my skin tone, but I added the lip gloss on top of it and I think that it worked out just fine.  The mascara wasn't too bad, it didn't clump up my lashes and I think it did volumize my lashes a bit.  My lashes are just really short and thin.  I would usually wear false lashes, but I wanted to see how the mascara is on my lashes.  The only products I didn't use with this look are the pencil, nail polish, and the decorator stencils, which I forgot to take pictures of.

I hope that you'll try out their new makeup line and feel free to share it on my facebook page @conchico.  Intagram @conchico and tag me.  I would love to see the looks you did with their collections.

Marinas Ambrosia Swatches and Review

Marina Ambrosia's "makeup products are 100% pure and organic.  There are no fillers, is hypo-allergenic, Free of- preservatives, bismuth, talc, dyes, parabens, carmine, fragrances, and fillers."- Marina Ambrosia

Marina Ambrosia not only carry makeup, but also skin care.

Here are some swatches of the eyeshadows that was sent to me.





The pigmentation of the mineral eyeshadows are amazing!!! they glide on so smoothly.  Can be applied wet too.  The foundation, concealer, and bronzer are amazing too.  They feel a bit chalky, but once you let it set on your skin, it looks so natural.  

Here is the look I created using all products that was sent to me by Marina Ambrosia herself.


Marina Ambrosia mineral makeup is a must have.  They are pricey, but really worth it.  I highly recommend everyone to try her makeup.

Check out www.marinasambrosia.com and when you purchase leave a note that connie domingo (me) sent you.

Have a wonderful day,
Connie
