Skin Talk With Dee

Hey Beauties, Today, i decided to write about some of the Classic Makeup USA products i recently tried and fell in love with. Classic makeup brand is one of the drugstore brands in Nigeria, they have some cool products especially if you want makeup on a budget. This post is not sponsored but i feel everyone should know this information. Classic makeup face contour kit So, the first product i tried recently is the Classic makeup face contour kit. It comes in a black cardboard back cover with their company name in gold and product name and description written in white. The face definer itself also comes in a black packaging with face definer written on it. Inside the face definer you get a contour powder, a bronzer/highlighter and setting powder. It comes in different shades from light, to medium and dark. The contour powder is pigmented so a little goes a long way. The bronzer / highlighter is fantastic and smooth. The setting powder is bright and smooth. So if you want a...

Hey beauties! Welcome back to to my blog hope you are enjoying the weekend? Today's review is on the La pride Diamond Eyeshadow Palette. Let's go, La Pride 12  color Diamond Eyeshadow Palette Packaging: The pack of the eyeshadow palette is made up of black cardboard paper with an infusion of brown. The palette itself is made up of the same black cardboard paper but is thicker than the pack. Both the palette and the pack has the brand name inscribed all over in brown and white. The palette has no mirror. I generally like their packing because it simple and classy. A look i created using the palette  The shadows: the palette consist of 12 eyeshadows in total. The shadows have no shade names. It is a very vibrant eyeshadow palette with some shades having a mix of two colors. A picture of the shades swatched is below. My thought's 1, The shadows are very pigmented and blends smoothly and easily. 2, The quantity of each shadow in the pale...

Hey Beauties, How are you all enjoying the month of May? Hope you all are doing great? I went to a cosmetic store in Kaduna to get a face definer. I had two brands in mind to get. The sales lady at the store said forget those definers you had in mind to buy try the Zikel face definer, I was like Zikel which brand is that? I have never heard of it. She said it's a new brand owned by a Nigerian trust me i was already interested this was around December 2017. I am always happy whenever i see Nigerians producing our own beauty products because we understand our skin, our climate and our overall needs better. It is easier to find your shade of foundation in a Nigerian owned brand. I used the Zikel face definer here Enough of the too much talk. So I bought the foundation for 2500 which is not bad at all. I got it in the shade beautiful bronze. The packaging comes in all black with the brand name written in red, it is a 3 in 1 face definer. It comes with a bronze...

Hey beauties,          How are you all doing? Easter is around the corner and lent will soon be over. Here is a review to help you change your makeup game to the next level. In my previous review about Zaron i expressed my love for this brand which led me to buy their concealer. How it looks  My shade is Az10 What i love about the concealer 1. It is very light weight. 2. It is very bright so it does the job of highlighting perfectly. 3. Blends easily with a beauty blender and brush giving a very smooth finish. 4. It is matte so you might need to work quickly. 5. The price is awesome I got it for 1500 naira at their store in shopright Abuja. 6. It has a scent which i don't mind. 7. The applicator wand is thin and easy to use under the eye.    Beauties this Concealer needs to be in your kit it is a game changer. You can purchase this concealer from their stores Nationwide or from any trusted distributor.   ...

Hey beauties,                         Am back again with another review. This time my review will be on the classic makeup USA eyeshadow pallette. I got this pallette sometime in early 2018 when i enrolled for makeup training as a beginner because it was cheap. I didn't really know too many eyeshadow brands just starting out so for me then it was perfect. How it looks,  Pls I know the pallete doesn't look neat and new because i have had it since 2018 and i want this review to be honest and real. Price: 1800 naira From the pictures above you can see it comes in an all black packaging. The only turn off i have for the packaging is the front of the pallete, it has a rubber feel and it stains easily. The shades are vibrant and beautiful. It swatches well with or without primer as shown in the picture above. Some of the shades though were hard to swatch because they were very hard or dry. On the ey...

It...

Hey beauties,        I trust you all are doing good. Today i would be writing about what a lot of people ask me whenever i say my package just arrived from Aliexpress. Two frequent questions i am mostly asked are: 1. How trust worthy is Aliexpress? 2. Do i always get what i ordered exactly as described? So i decided to write about shopping on Aliexpress. The first thing to do is to go on google and search for the Aliexpress website or you can download the app on your phone from google play store or app store if you are an iPhone user. The app is easy and simple to use and records of your activities on the site can be easy accessed by you. Then you would be asked to creat an account either with your email or Facebook. Do remember to choose Nigeria as your country of residence this is very important to view the prices in naira then you can enjoy everything that aliexpress has to offer, the mobile interface would look like this   In the picture above...

Hey beauties,            Its great to have you back! As a makeup artist whether you are a beginner or a professional makeup artist, it is important to have a powder pallette that has different shades of powder to suite the different skin colour of your clients. A powder pallette helps you save some coins that you would have spent if you decide to purchase single powders for every skin colour especially if you are just starting out plus it is easy to carry around in your makeup kit. I know you are like oya to the review jo hahahah..... Beauties today's review will be on the LA pride 6 in 1 oil control powder pallette yea!!! Drum rolls!!! Hahaha....

Hello beauties, welcome to my blog. This is my first review on my blog. Enjoy!         I found out about LA pride cosmetics then when i was still in the university through my roomy. She was using their 2 in 1 conceal and foundation. I loved how it looked on her. I wanted to add a glow kit to my makeup kit since i never really had one. One thing was sure, i only wanted a drugstore brand. So my search for affordable glow kit began. I went on YouTube and google to see if I could find reviews on any affordable Glow kit available in Nigeria. I saw a few reviews on different brands so i decided to settle for the LA pride 4 in 1 glow kit.              I love the packaging It has four shades of highlighters (sunburst 1st, Golden bronze 2nd, Bubbly 3rd, and the 4th is Gold) I swatched each shade from 1st to last I really love this glowkit, I have used it twice since i got it. My favourite so far is sunburst and golden...
