STUNNA | FENTY BEAUTY LIP PAINT

FENTY STUNNA LIP“lol. still ashy.  Shook.” _Rihanna (In response to Make Up For Ever’s IG post)

.

.

The third launch from the Fenty Beauty brand will bring us the lip paint “Stunna”.  The lip paint follows up the initial face launch that gave us Fenty foundation and the much talked about Trophy Wife.  Next up was the holiday Galaxy Collection.  Now we have Stunna the red lip.  I’m just going to tell you know I’m very excited for this lip paint.  The last time Rihanna dipped her toe into the making of a bold red lip color it during her collaboration with M.A.C.  That’s when the cult favorite “Riri Woo” was born.  It was the prefect red matte lip for every girl in the world.  I’m exciting Stunna lip paint should give us nothing less.

.

.

.

.

The tube looks opaque, bold red lip product. The lip paint doesn’t come the same packaging as the gloss.  The lip paint has a long, facetted conical top instead of the shorter, flat-topped version on the gloss.  I seems that this is a one of lip paint drop but others are speculating this intense red liquid lipstick is only part of the brand’s next generation of launches.  Rihanna has hinted at plans for an expanded lip collection in future.  I’ll be in line November 23rd to see.  Oh did I mention the lip paint price point is $24.

GabiFresh X Playful Promise .

Gabi Fresh speaking on plus size and working with Playful Promises.  “As a plus size woman with a 38HH bust, finding stylish, supportive and sexy lingerie options has always been an issue for me. So often people my size are left with boring beige options, and I’m honored to help change that. Body positivity is a core part of my belief system and brand, and designing lingerie that makes women feel good in their skin is a natural progression for me after doing the same with my swimwear collections. I’m so excited to be working with Playful Promises! They’re a great partner because they take risks with design and truly stand apart from what is currently being offered in extended sizes.”

Muslim Girl Teams Up With Orly To Create #HALALPAINT

Orlynails 2“This line is important because there are so many girls and young women who aren’t represented in mainstream beauty. They either don’t fit that definition or see things about them that are designed without them, instead of for them and by them, This is our way of bridging that gap.”_Azmia Magane MuslimGirl.com chief of staff

 

.

.

Orlynails 5

.

.

Los Angeles-based Orly has teamed up with lifestyle website MuslimGirl.com to create a limited-edition set of nail polishes called #HalalPaint.  The collection has been released at the idea time.  This is the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.  The collection polishes are made from 100 percent halal ingredients.  The Halal paint have been certified halal by the Islamic Society of The Washington Area. The Arabic word “halal” simply means permissible, and is used to denote items that fit within various religious requirements.  The ORLY polishes are permeable to water and air. This is important because of a ritual washing, called wudhu, that Muslims perform before prayers.

 

As part of the prayer ritual, Muslims are instructed to wash their hands and arms, up to the elbow. Water must reach all parts of the hands. Some Muslim women forego wearing nail polish because they are concerned it may interfere with this requirement, since it may act as a barrier and prevent water from reaching their nails. For those who have this concern, “halal” nail polish is a potential solution.  The collaboration with MuslimGirl.com aims to present a viable beauty solution for Muslim women, as well as a new way to promote nail health.

 

Orlynails 4Orlynails 3WATER PERMEABLE. HALAL-CERTIFIED – VITAMIN-INFUSED – OFFICIALLY HALAL-CERTIFIED – FEATURES 100% HALAL INGREDIENTS – WATER & AIR PERMEABLE

 

 

#HalalPaint is named after the Muslim Girl Army itself, featuring shades like “What The Fatima?”, “Ig-Noor The Haters”, “Haram Bae”, and “Wallah Bro Wipeout.”

ORLY’s #HalalPaint’s “breathable” formula technology claims to result in longer wear and less chipping, and eliminates the need for basecoats or topcoats. It’s also infused with nutrients like argan oil and vitamin C.

REVIEW OF KYLIE COSMETICS’ #KKWxKYLIE CREME LIQUID LIPSTICKS

kkw X kylieREVIEW OF KYLIE COSMETICS’ KKWxKYLIE CREME LIQUID LIPSTICKS.  MAKEUP REVIEWS DONE BY WOMEN OF COLOR FOR WOMEN OF COLOR.

 

 

Kim and Kylie teamed up to create the KKWxKylie creme liquid 4pc lip kit.  These creme lipstick were suppose to be 4 nude lip.  Kim is known for her nude makeup.  It’s often called the “no makeup‘ look.  Knowing Kim constantly wears nude lips I was happy to finally jump on the Kylie Cosmetics wave.  Kim promoted on her Instagram that the kits came with the new creme liquid formula Kiki: Pinky Nude, Kim: Peachy Nude, Kimmie: Deep Nude and Kimberly: True Nude.

 

 

This collection is not nude.  On brown skin none of the 4 lipsticks look nude.  The color nude as defined by Merriam-Webster is 2a :  devoid of a natural or conventional covering; especially :  not covered by clothing or a drapeb (1) :  having a color (such as pale beige or tan) that matches the wearer’s skin tones nude pantyhose nude lipstick (2) :  giving the appearance of nudity a nude dressc :  featuring nudes a nude movied :  frequented by naked people a nude beach.  To me all four of these color are pink and not nude as defined by Merriam-Webster or my eyes.

 

.

 

kkwxkylie 10
kkwxkylie 11

Colors in swatch order: Kimberly, Kim, Kiki and Kimmie

.

The colors look fleshy on my brown skin and don’t deposit enough color to work alone as a pink lip color.  I not happy with product.  The total cost was $45.  There was no tax or shipping cost.  Which comes to $11.25 each lipstick. That’s not a bad price for non drug store liquid lipstick.  However with the false color promotion and bad formula I feel cheated.  The KKWxKylie creme liquid is not FatGirl approved.

 

Beauties have you jumped on the Kylie cosmetics wave? If so what product did you get?

 

Product purchased and all opinions are my own.

Her easy glamour and confident eclecticism come together in a bright purple-pink Iridescent Powder for those ready for as much colour and charisma as Skye herself.  Justine SkyeXMAC iridescent pressed powder is now available.

Lately I’ve been obsessed with everything iridescent.  So when I saw the new Justine Skye by M.A.C. iridescent pressed powder I know I had to try it.  Pressed powers can be used in many ways.  I’m choosing to use this press power as a highlight.  The color is called Justine Skye offers a hint of soft purple along with shimmering pink pearl sheen.  This fun shade is long-wearing with buildable coverage and shimmery finish.  It comes in special packaging that features a purple glitter design with holographic silver accents and Justine Skye’s logo.

 

 

 

I love it.  It ready pops without having to use a ton of the product.  I used a slight hand and it showing up well on my brown skin.  I can see myself putting this press power on wet to get an extra glow.  This is a limited edition item from M.A.C. so I’m going to run out and get another one so I can have a backup.  I like it that much! You can get your own here.

 





As for the Starbucks’ unicorn drink. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm don’t waste your money.  It taste like food coloring and whip cream.  This is the first special Starbucks drink I purchase and didn’t like.  Unicorn are everything good and sweet and this drink simply wasn’t.  Sorry to report such bad news.  However I hope this save you money and taste buds, lol.

 

 

Beauties will you be getting Justine Skye iridescent pressed powder?  Will you trying the unicorn drink from Starbucks?

#FatGirlMagic is a real thing!  I see women of size slaying daily.   I wanted to offer my take on this magical wave.  My core style has always been whimsical so this look is how I feel in my head all the time.  Some women may say “I don’t have the confidence.”  I say put of your crown and work your magic.

I say this in all my post.  I’m cheerleader for women wearing what they want.  It doesn’t have to be a two piece swimsuit it could be that bodycon you have in the closet that you’ve never worn.  Or those jeans you love but feel people might stare.   At the end of the day you must do what’s best for you.  Make yourself happy.  It’s just clothes you’ll have on something completely different tomorrow.

Use the hashtag #FatGirlMagic to be featured on thefatgirloffashion’s Facebook Page.  Show the world that beautiful, creative, sexy and bold plus size women aren’t unicorns.  We can be found in every city everywhere living life to the fullest.
