Technic Cosmetics | Reviews

When it comes to makeup, my two most important things are the base and the application to achieve a flawless finish.
Over the past few weeks I have been using these four brushes by the brand 'Techinc' to apply my makeup.
From the top down, I have the 'Smudger Brush'* £2.99, this brush is great for blending eyeshadow into the crease. It isn't an overly fluffy brush but does the job perfectly.

Next I have the 'Foundation Brush'* £3.99, this is a fairly small foundation brush compared to others I have used. It is to be used with liquid foundation although I find it can leave foundation looking slightly streaky but can be helped by blending the foundation in lots.

Next I have the 'Lash comb and Brow brush'* £2.99, which is used to brush eyebrows into place and comb lashes through. I find the brow brush really handy to brush my brows into place and after I have applied my brow products to give a more natural look. 

Finally I have the 'Blusher Brush'* £3.99, used to add a touch of colour to your cheeks. This brush is my favourite out of the four, it picks up a good amount of the product, feels super soft and applies perfectly! 


Before putting any makeup on I like to prep my skin with a primer at least 5 minutes before hand.
 Above I have the 'Smooth it Primer'* £3.99, this product is a smooth resurfacing primer to create a pore less finish. It has a really light, silky texture which leaves my skin feeling soft and smooth.

These products are really affordable and under £4!
They are sold all online at Lovethymakeup and some in store at Bodycare.

Technic cosmetics | Review

Today I am going to be reviewing some products by a brand called Technic. 
 
The first product I'm going to review is 'High Lights'* £1.99. This product is great to highlight your cheeks, eyes and lips and is easy to use by dabbing onto the area then blending with your fingers to give a subtle shimmer. The packaging is very similar to Benefit 'High Beam' although I haven't used the benefit highlighter to compare the formula. This product is super affordable and great to add some glow to your complexion!

The next product is the 'Lashitude' Mascara* £3.99. First 
impressions of the product are that the packaging looks sleek and appealing. In terms of the actual mascara it added volume to my lashes but like other mascaras that aren't waterproof it didn't hold the curl I had achieved with eyelash curlers and flaked leaving smudges under my eyes. Apart from that it would probably be great for someone looking for volume rather than big, curled lashes. 

The next product is this Eyeshadow Palette called 'Sultry'* £1.49. The palette comes with six different coloured eye shadows and is really affordable for only £1.49. The palette contains earthy colours that have a slight shimmer, great for day and night wear.

The next product is the 'Beauty Boost Foundation'* £3.99. The product is a brightening foundation, I think the foundation is a light coverage but covers blemishes and spots with a small amount of the product. It did leave my skin with a slight shine which is probably best for people with dry or normal skin but can always be powdered down to reduce the shine. 



The next product is the 'Colourmax' lipgloss* £2.99. Although I wouldn't personally choose this colour lipgloss, it gives off great colour and coverage, with a glossy finish. The lipgloss has a fruity scent which is appealing and is easy to apply. 

The next product is the 'Colour Fix' Fine pressed powder* (Price Unknown). This powder comes with a mirror and a sponge which is great for application when on the go. With the powder being fine I've found that it isn't cakey but unfortunately due to me having oily/combination skin it didn't keep my face matt for very long but would be great for someone who doesn't have this problem. 

The last product is the 'Brilliant touch highlighter & blemish concealer'* £2.99. Firstly, this is really easy to use, just 2 or 3 turns of the dial, brush the product onto the area then blend with your fingertips or a brush. I've found that not much of the product is needed to cover blemishes and it didn't crease when used under my eyes. 


Overall I think Technic's products are a good quality and super affordable but only have a limited choice of colours in some of their products.
