Innoxa Australia Makeup Review

Hey guys!

I was lucky enough to kindly receive some goodies from Innoxa Australia today. I have heard excellent reviews on Innoxa products so was really happy when Innoxa got in contact with us to try some products out.

We received a:
- Lush Lash Mascara in Navy RRP $19.95
- Nude limited edition Lipglaze RRP $14.95
- Nude limited edition Lipstick RRP $14.95




Lush Lash Mascara in Navy:

I was so excited when i received this as I've never tried a different coloured mascara other then black. Its a great colour as its not bright blue but a dark navy blue which gives a really nice hint of colour for a wearable everyday look. My package also came with an info sheet explaining what the mascara does. The mascara is a conditioning and treatment mascara formulated to create volume, curl, definition whilst conditioning lashes. It claims eyelashes are increased 32% in 15 days and the volume of your eyelashes are increased up to 33%. Im really excited to try out this product and keep you guys posted on what it does to my eyelashes. I'm not to fond on the white packaging though. It definitely stands out amougst all my black mascaras but I can see this getting real dirty real soon.
         


Nude limited edition lip glaze:
This lipgloss has a subtle pink/peach undertone so its adds this beautiful hint of colour to the lips whilst adding shine, shimmer and gloss. It's not a heavy colour to wear and adds this really nice nude sheer colour to the lips. The lip glaze also smells great! It smells just like the nyx butter glosses do- like cake batter!
      
 


Nude limited edition lipstick:
Im always cautious when it comes to nude lip products as I'm so pale it can completly wash my lip out. This nude has a slight orange/brown undertone so it wouldn't be my first option for a nude lipstick but i can see this looking wonderful on someone with a darker complexion. This colour applys really creamy to the lips but there was some settling of the lipstick around some lines in my lips.

Overall I'm really impressed with these products! After trying them i think I'm going to have to purachse some more lip glazes as I'm loving the texture, colour and smell of them! Also might have to get the black version of this mascara as my lashes need all the help they can get when it comes to conditioning and treating!

Till next time,

May Favourites!



1. Mac Prolong Concealer in NC15: This concealer is am-ma-zing! Our first try of this we pumped one little pump onto the back of our hand only to realise that we could cover like 3 entire faces with the amount we got- a little goes a long way! It is so long wearing and i even find it difficult getting it of as it lasts forever and doesn't crease. The only thing i don't like is the packaging as it is really hard to get a tiny bit out and you end up wasting lots. But this has defiantly been a favourite this month!


2. Rimmel Translucent powder: As my skin hasn't been as bad as it has been I've been reaching for this translucent powder over my beloved Australis Fresh and Flawless powder to set my foundation. I feel its a little bit more lighter and it sets my foundation and under eye concealer amazingly! It makes me makeup last all day without looking cakey


3. NYX Soft matte lip cream in Antwerp: This has become an autumn favourite of mine. It is the most beautiful coral shade with a slight red colour. Been wearing it like crazy! Also the smell of these are so good- like vanilla cake batter.


4. Chaptick Mixstix in Lemon Berry Sorbet: I could just eat this stick it tastes amazing. I love the waxy formula as i find it lasts on my lips so much more as its nice and thick and moisturising on the lips. Its great how its double ended so you can mix it up but save space in your makeup bag.


5. Ibeauty Cosmetics eyeshadow palette: This was a custom made eyeshadow palette bought from here.  I have the shades from the top L-R: Polar, Barley There, Tickled Pink, Stardust. Bottom Row L-R: Coco, Black Widow, Dusk and Mischief. The eyeshadows are really pigmented and great to create a natural or smokey eye. The eyeshadows are only $3 each as well so i think there great! My purchase also came with 4 free mini samples as shown below but i can't remember the names of them- whoops!


6. Nude by Nature Kabuki Brush: I have had this brush for about 3 years and it is my go to brush for applying powder to face. Its so dense and creates a great flawless base. Its lasted through numerous washes and just applies and picks up product effortlessly.

7. Benefit Highbeam: So pigmented and gives the most amazing glow to the face. A little goes a long way so we just place three little dots on each cheek and blend it out. I also use this as an eyeshadow (yay for for multipurpose)!

8. Australis Lipliner in Tickled Pink: A really natural lipliner with a touch of pink! Great for a everyday look as i line my lips and blend it in creating the illusion my lips are a touch bigger. I do wish it was a little more creamy though as it has a very waxy formula but i just love the colour it gives to my lips.


Hope you enjoyed our May Favourites! What products have you been loving this month?
