 THE VERDICT:

Maquillage, in my opinion, is one of the brands with the most whimsical packaging; but don't let all this cuteness fool you because inside each precious compact is a hardworking product; I've recently been sent the Spring 2017 makeup collection and it's all keep, no throw, srsly.

WHAT IS IT:

Dramatic Loose Powder promises to prolong makeup wear by controlling sebum; it comes in a lightweight, plastic jar with a vintage vibe; the puff that comes along with it is divine and you can purchase it separately as well.

There are two shades for this: Lucent and Natural Beige; I got Lucent, which means translucent. The powder has a soft, silky texture; it's a low- dusting powder that's unscented, lightweight, and softens the texture of the skin as it sets makeup. 

Dramatic Mood Veil is a finishing powder that provides a 'lit-from'within' look and balances features with the play of light and shadow. I have already reviewed this product way back so please click HERE for the review.

This shade is called Silky.

L-R: Lavender, Cream, Pink, White, Peach, all colors combined

Compared to the first Dramatic Mood Veil that I have, which is predominantly roses and pinks, this one features tone- correcting shades. I also like the packaging better now because it has become refillable and the case has gotten less bulkier.

 Flat Change Base is a spot- specific primer; this is meant to be used on the Diamond zone of the face (eyelids, T-Zone, and lips) to smooth out rough texture and prolong makeup for up to 13 hours.

Texture is a solid balm with a silicone feel to it; it's lightweight, blurs pores in an instant, quickly mattifies skin, and does keep makeup intact for hours with very minimal fading; I've noticed that on the side crevices of my nose, foundation would stay on longer if I have this on. The only con is the form of the product; takes an effort to get some product to put on your face.

 Perfect Black Liner promises to give soft, sharp, smooth lines.

This is the first eyeliner of its kind that I've invented; it resembles fountain pen and how you put together that thing; I like this format because it keeps the ink fresh and rich before usage.

The secret to this eyeliner's perfect line is the precise brush; it's nylon bristles gathered together to  form a precise brush. Nylon is a good brush material because it springs back into shape asap and is sturdy, but still has some flexibility to it.

Watery Rouge is a plumping, hydrating liquid lip color with a glossy finish. This is in a shade called BE 332.

HOW IS IT? HOW DO THE PRODUCTS WORK?

Eye line made by Perfect Black Liner; the brush is really nice and it's the reason why I used this everyday; it does help create solid, clean lines, whether it's thin or thick.

Formula is long- wearing, although I don't think it's waterproof.

Watery Rouge BE332

BE 332 is a nude shade with a hint of peach; texture is bursting with watery goodness and keeps lips soft and moist even if coverage has come off; this is also a great topper for matte lipsticks.

Dramatic Loose Powder is one of my favorite setting powders to date; it's soft to touch, easy to use, and a small amount is enough to seal makeup, making it economical. It helps keep my T-Zone oil- free for 5 hours, plus I like that it doesn't look too powdery!

I love everything in Maquillage's Spring 2017 collection; definitely perfect for girls who like keeping it light and for this warm weather of ours!
