Vapour Organic Beauty

Lately, i got a "hot" for mineral make up. Probably it is because my blusher is running low and present me a reason to buy.  I was keeping a keen look out for it and had the opportunity to chance upon Vapour Organic Beauty

Personallyi do not like powder make up. i have tried organic mineral make up in powder form and it doesnt work well for me. Firstly, it dries up my skin making it looking blotchy and make my laiugher lines more obvious. Secondly, all those dusting and particles flying the air never fails to send a picture of clogged lungs into my mind. Better to be safe than sorry.

The perfect makeup to me should made a person look glowing and radiant with no/little hint of make up.  Dark cicles concealer  is a must for me. I look ghastly without it.  Lip and cheeks color makes me look less tired than i am.

When i read Vapour Organic Beauty product's ingredient, it got me interested as it is not made up of powder. The products are as organic as it can be with the % of organic content indicated. The claim made by each product should seem highly credible.

I quickly place an order (since my blusher is running low and their instant skin perfecter is calling out to me urgently to get it). As efficient as i could be in placing an order, theirs wasn't. Unfortunuately, their ordering system is not as responsive as i like.  they replied only after i had sent a 2nd email. All in all, it took them almost 2  weeks to reply. After which i have secured my order and paid, it took them another 2 emails from me to send me the invoice. By the time, i receive my product (at last!), it was almost 3.5 weeks. hmm... nevertheless, i was all bubbly and hyper to receive the products. it was wrapped up nicely in blue wrapping paper with a personal postcard in it.

I purchased their Stratus Instant Skin Perfector and Aura Multi Use Blush.

Stratus Instant Skin Perfector contains 70% organics ingredients with the rest of the ingredients are not available in organic form.

The next day, i applied the skin perfector neat. i asked my usually critical husband if he noticed anything different about my skin. He replied with this " Looks the same but matter". Personally, i feel that this product does really make my skin looks more matt like a powdery veil over it. The feel is good too but there is a peculiar scent to it which goes off after a while . Well, to start with, my skin is quite good thus the difference it makes on my skin is not BIG. It will probably work better for someone with more obvious lines on the skin as it claimed to make lines less obvious. It is a skin perfector but not a foundation thus it will NOT cover blemishes or uneven skin tone. I reckon that it might feel too "heavy" with both perfector + foundation as the skin perfector's first ingredient is evening primrose oil. My forehead gets just alittle oily at the end of the day which is quite a feat for a product with OIL as the first ingredient. Application wise, it needs some gettng used to to prevent "dragging" of the skin. All in all, it makes the skin looks velvety and i will certainty still continue using it.

A multi use blush that acts like a blush and lipstick. Perfect! A product that you can definitely bring along for travelling. No worries about liquid limit up on board. Application wise, will need some getting used too as you will need to smooth it out towards the side of your face.i would say that you will need to apply quite abit for the colors to show. however, the colors do not stay on so well. it fades off by mid day. Nevertheless, this cute handy stick is good for travelling especially if you are planning to travel light.
