Review: Vapour Organic Beauty

Are you tired of powder, liquid or cream foundation? LOL I know what you thought if I don't like those maybe I shouldn't wear makeup right? Well no, there are other options on the market, two of them being Vapour Atmosphere Luminous Foundation & Atmospere Soft Focus Foundation. 

Vapour’s Atmosphere Luminous Foundation and Atmosphere Soft Focus Foundation instantly transform skin while diminishing the appearance of fine lines, while infusing skin with a blend of anti-oxidants, moisturizing botanicals and rich mineral pigments for a youthful and glowing appearance.


from L-R atmosphere Luminous Foundation, Atmosphere Soft Focus Foundation, Stratus Gold Soft Focus and Stratus Instant Skin Perfector 
                           


L-R S140, S150, and S160 (I didn't shake the 160 ) 

Luminous Foundation in l-r in 150 & 160





Here is my face after just moisturizing with Merlot non oily moisturizer


Here is the Stratus 11 Gold Soft Focus

And here is after application as you can see the skin perfector has lightened the blemishes on my face and has basically evened my skin tone WOW! I would use this all alone on a lazy day. I'm very impressed. 



Now using the Atmosphere Soft Focus Foundation in both S 150 and S 160 ( I mixed it) here are the results



As you can see the blemish on my forehead has been further diminished with application my skin feels super silky and smooth and I love the glow that I get as if I've been kissed by the sun


I think I'm in love! 





Now to test out Stratus Instant Skin Perfector 

Here is my skin after the Perfector by its self. Again I'm blow away by it's ability to even my tone and diminish my imperfections. 



Using the Lumnious Foundation Stick in 150 in the middle of my face( cheeks, t-zone, lip area) and the 160 in the outside portion of my face here are the results
Again a great easy breezy application a little less coverage but never the less I do love it for the on the go no brush necessary application. Do make sure you blend properly.



Pros


  • I was impressed with the touch and feel of both the Luminous and Soft Focus Foundation which had little to no transference on my clothing. 
  • I also loved the fact that if wasn't greasy feeling but gave a look of brightened skin yet I didn't look like I slathered baby oil on my face. 
  • The ability to just use the skin perfector  as well as the Stratus 11 Gold Soft Focus is a plus
  • Whether you have oily, dry or combination skin Vapour Organic Beauty has you covered 
  •  I would advise using the Stratus Soft Focus along with the Atmosphere Soft Focus Foundation for normal, combination to dry skin, if you want more coverage. 
  • For oily skin I'd skip the Stratus Gold Soft Focus and use the Foundation solo.  Or I'd use the Instant Skin Perfector and Soft Focus Foundation combo 


Cons


For me there are no cons although one would say that having to mix two colors to get my complexion is one in itself. Unfortunately I do have to use two but in reality only a few people are one shade.

Merli says: 

This is a must have if you're an organic chica and/or are looking for foundation and a perfector that makes you look like a 2.0 of yourself without the extra chemicals. The Vapour line feels like a second skin and I will be sure to use it on myself and clients who push mineralize cause it's natural, you know who I'm talking about. In short I say Go Get it!

 What are your fave foundation and skin perfecting products to use in the summer or do you go with the no makeup look all summer long?

Beauty Review: Nail Fraud polish strips

Hi Beautiful People,

As the year 2011 comes to a close it brings me great happiness to share one more beauty review with you, certainly it won't be the last. My promise is to bring you bigger and better posts next year I can't wait and in advance and as always thank you for reading, subscribing and commenting your continued support is amazing. Now unto the review. Well... the video that I recorded speaks for itself, sadly Nail Fraud decals while cute doesn't have the staying power that I thought it would. I'm well aware that it is quite possible that I didn't do it right or there was a product malfunction but for now I'll have to give Nail Fraud a 0. The beautiful polish strips didn't last a whole 24 hours, I hadn't even washed a sink full of dishes nor had I used any substantial moisturizer. Maybe someone has a tip that I can use to make it last longer than a day... not sure but while I love shopping I hate wasting money. I will try the other decals and bring another review to you, I believe in second chances. Have you tried Nail Fraud? Let me know how long it lasted for you.


Live, laugh, X &O's
Merli
