Winners, Make Up, 2017

Jane Iredale, Active Light Under Eye Concealer in 2

“My first impressions were ‘impressed’. The concealer definitely helped to reduce my dark circles. My eye area looked more rested, lines were not as apparent. I dotted it over other areas and it concealed very well without being too heavy or mask like. I loved the finished effect, it was soft, light with enough coverage.”

“This product works well with make-up in that it prevents make-up ‘bleeding’, but also ensures an even skin tone if spread across the face. Product lasted  – no top-ups needed. I felt my eye area looked brighter.”

 

Silver Award

Benecos, Beautiful Eyes Quattro eyeshadow

“The texture is smooth and creamy and blends well. It stayed in place as well as any other brand, for five or six hours. The final effect was good and it stayed that way all day without creping or fading. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the eyeshadows. Excellent value for money and delighted it is vegan and has ethical qualities.”

 

Bronze Award

Jane Iredale, 24k Karat Gold Dust in Gold

“Fine silky power. Lovely shimmer. It worked over body cream on the décolletage and over foundation on eyelids and cheek areas. I was impressed having been more than a little sceptical about using gold shimmer powder in my 50’s. The results were subtle and I found myself really liking the effect. Exceeded my expectations.”

Odylique, Rose Parfait Lipstick

“It has been a long while since I’ve chosen a lipstick over a lip gloss but this has changed that. I love the colour, I’m impressed by the staying power and the natural element rounds it off to be my lipstick of choice. I love the product’s natural credentials – to have a product deliver on quality in the natural range is brilliant.”
