Hope you're all well.
I don't usually use any of the products from the Vivo Cosmetics line although I have heard good things in the online beauty world about them so when I saw they were offering 40% off, I jumped at the chance to try a few!
The first thing I got was the Colour Block Eye Pallet in Unprotected which at first glance is yet another dupe for the Urban Decay Naked 2 Pallet. However, the colours in this pallet are just beautiful, really rich and highly pigmented and there's a good mix of shimmers and matte shades as well. I particularly like the colour on the top row, second from the left which is a lovely dusky rose/beige colour, so pretty.
I've not tried this pallet out yet although I have swatched on the back of my hand and they are really nicely pigmented. I've not been this excited about an eye pallet for a while!!
Next I chose one of the matte lipsticks in Wow Pink. The colour of this is very bubble gum/Barbie-esque and I really love it. It's not as matte as I would have expected it to be, it's more of a satin finish but I don't mind that at all. Like the eyeshadows, this product is very pigmented and lasted well on me, I found that it stained my lips which I liked as it lasted for hours!! Very moisturising as well which is nice as I usually find matte lipsticks to be quite drying. It's a bit too bright to wear in the office but a definite contender for a night out!
Ok next I picked up a gel liner in the colour Black Swan. I haven't used this yet so can't say too much. However, I will be doing a review when I've given it a good test drive so watch this space!!
Lastly I picked up the eyebrow pencil in Dark Brown. This is very pigmented and very soft and easy to use. The pencil also has a bonus brush on one end to really push the colour through your brows. Nice little pencil in my opinion!
I've got to say, I'm so impressed with this cosmetics line. I just wish it was a little more readily available as the Tesco in the small town I live in doesn't stock it, so I have to buy online which is a pain when you want to look at colours etc.
All in all though, I'll definitely be adding to my collection next time I shop and can't wait to properly try out all my new toys!!
Hope you enjoyed this post.
Lotsa love
