hidden treasures of drugstore

hi again gorgeous girls and boys!

today i want to start some sort of series on my blog:  ''hidden treasures of drugstore''. once a week i will choose a great product from the shelves of the drugstore and bring it in front of you with swatches, reviews, makeup ideas and so on. i started this blog because i do believe beauty is not supposed to be a luxury. beauty has to be affordable. we are all naturally beautiful and we all deserve to...well, you know... ''enhance'' that beauty. i would also be really glad to hear what awesome products you found in the drugstore.

that being said, today i'm very excited to talk about Rimmel London' s Magnif'Eyes eyeshadow & khol kajal. i've just bought it 2 days ago from Auchan. the price is only 21 lei (4,5 $). that's great because for little money you get great value. i have that product in no 2 ''kissed by a rose gold'' and that means 0,7 g of a beautiful rose gold eyeshadow and 0,9 g of brown pencil.

 both products are very pigmented and shimmery (the pencil is less shimmery). the eyeshadow is extremly long wearing. when i swatched it on my hand at Auchan, i couldn't believe my eyes: i rubbed my skin and it didn't budge or fade. that was the moment when i knew it had to be mine 😀 at home, i washed my hands with warm water and soap and it didn't move. i used my micellar gel from l'oreal and it was still there, almost intact. it went away only when i applied some jojoba oil.  here is a swatch that i made few minutes ago:

i wore both the eyeshadow and the pencil today and they lasted from 8 a.m until now . it is 7 p.m. and i've just took my makeup off they looked intact so i guess they could last for more than 12 hours which is absolutely amazing for that price! only 4,5 $! Here's the look I created with Rimmel Magnif'eyes eyeshadow and khol kajal:

i primed my eyes with Too faced shadow insurance, then as a transition colour i used '' Substitute for love'' from Zoeva's Cocoa blend, i blended that colour into my crease up, close to the brow bone. to give more dimension to my eyes i used ''Infusion '' also from Cocoa blend and blended very well in the outer side of the lid and into the crease with a small blending brush from Elf. I put the same color  on the upper lid, close to the inner corner and blended with a small brush from Melkior. then, in the middle of the upper lid i placed that beautiful rose gold from Rimmel, applied mascara and used the Rimmel Magnif'eyes kohl kajal on my lower lid as close to the waterline as i could.

i highlighted the browbone and the inner corner with Bitterstart, also from Cocoa blend palette.

i'm thinking about trying a look with some purples and Rimmel Magnif'eyes, the shade that i have is pretty versatile and can be used to create different kind of  looks, from.the most simple to the eleborated ones. for example, if you are in a big hurry in the morning, you can use the Rimmel eyeshadow on your upper lid, apply mascara, a lipstick and you're good to go 😉

I will buy some other colours of Rimmel Magnif'eyes, the black and the pink one are also good options😀

that's all for today, if you used that product or any other great product from drugstore please comment down bellow and share together information & inspiration 😍
