Today we are getting back to basics with an old style of blog post that I haven't done in ages! If you're a new reader here, my brand spotlights consist of a little back story of the brand I'm trying, along with a make-up look using the various products the brand carries.
Lucky me, I got the chance to review some new make-up goodies that have just released. Maison Jacynthe is a company based out of Quebec, Canada, that originates from the brand Les Soins de Jacynthe. The name of the company comes from the founder; Jacynthe Rene; a famous actress from Quebec, a writer of Jmagazine, and also a producer.
The brand itself focuses on providing cruelty free products, and being all natural.
I got the opportunity to choose three products, so I went with a blush, eyeshadow and lipstick.
Blush - 01 Romeo
I was a bit shocked to see how much darker this blush was in person. The colour payoff is absolutely amazing, and a little does go a long way. I thought the blush colour would be too dark for me, but with a light hand, it gives you a gorgeous, natural deep glow. Along with the great colour, the blush also has a very nice, natural scent to it. It's subtle and not at all overpowering.
Eyeshadow - 03 Italiano
The eyeshadow is super creamy and silky. It's easily blendable and easy to work with. A great all over the lid shade.
Lipstick - 03 Garnet
The lipstick comes in a beautiful aluminum and wood casing, definitely showcasing the natural look. The shade I chose is a pretty strawberry pink with a frost finish.
Here you can see the eyeshadow all over my lid, which I applied with my finger. The blush is the only thing on my cheek.
Here is the overall look. Very simple and great for everyday.
