SUQQU

As I get older I have become pickier and pickier about which powders I use on my face, because some powders can easily sit into and emphasize fine lines and texture. This loose powder is great for both the Tzone and the under eyes. It removes unwanted shine and sets concealer really well without looking unnatural and cake like. It’s not cheap, but considering the quantity and quality, it’s well worth the price.

My favorite makeup item is blush and I am a sucker for cream and liquid blushes, so when Suqqu came out with these liquid blushes this spring, I was on board. I got two shades, Raspberry Red and Hot Orange. They are GORGEOUS! I use them on the cheeks, on the eyes and on the lips, package directions be damned! (the package indicates to use only on the cheeks). As a blush, eyeshadow and lipstick, this is vibrant and lasts very well on me. It does not irritate or break me out, it has no scent and the shimmer is so subtle, so the finish is skin-like and satiny. I LOVE these! My only issue is with the pump: it dispenses far too much product. The good thing is that I can use it all, as I also apply on the lids and lips, but if you don`t, you will find yourself wasting product. So, yeah, Suqqu, please take note and fix that pump, cause otherwise this product is amazing.

I love cream eyeshadows and these Suqqu ones are some of the best I have tried. The consistency is more like a light gel and you can sheer them out or build them up very easily. I like to use my fingers with these, but a brush works just as well. The color is very easy to blend and applying more layers is so easy: there is no cracking or drying or creasing with these. I bought the limited edition Spring 2019 grape color, but there is a range of 6 colors that are part of the permanent collection. I have mature, oily lids, but this lasts on me with or without primer for up to 8-9 hours without fading, They work great as a base for other make up, too. A little pricy, but no more than Tom Ford creams, which really disappointed me.
