This summer, in August, we will be taking a vacation somewhere brand new - Cape May, NJ! My husband and I have never traveled there so we rented a condo for a week and I am SO excited!

Summer Makeup with Profusion Cosmetics

Life is full of rules. Pay your bills. Go to work. Skip the makeup during the summer. Some more rules are important than the others but I find that makeup is an essential part of a women's repertoire. I wear makeup everyday to work and when Profusion Cosmetics reached out and asked if I wanted to check out some of their products, I had to say yes!  

The highlight & contour palette contains six shades to created a naturally radiant look or glowy look for a hot, summers night out. It retails for only $5.00 USD!!

The Mixed Metals Peach palette contains nine eyeshadows to create the perfect edgy look! It retails for only $10.00 USD!

The mixed metals lip creme can be worn alone or layered with the mixed metals lip liner to create the perfect metallic look. 


I swatched both the mixed metals liner and lip creme and was very impressed! The consistency is a little sticky but most liquid products are! I thought the color was gorgeous and is something I wouldn't necessarily gravitate towards myself. The lip liner did not hurt when I applied to my wrist like some liners can!


I also decided to swatch all of the eyeshadows from the Mixed Metals Peach palette. I did not use a primer on my skin to prep for the shadows. I have to say the colors are very beautiful and pigmented but that did not translate when swatched on my skin. They had a very dry and chalky texture and were not buttery. The more glittery shades, Certain and Bordeaux, were very pigmented and the texture for much more buttery. 


So do I like these products? I think these would be great for somebody who is just getting start with makeup and wants to buy products without breaking the bank. They are also cruelty-free which is pretty awesome too!
Would I repurchase? I sent was these products for review purposes. I am not affiliated with Profusion cosmetics. This are my honest review of the products I was sent.
Do I recommend? I would recommend the lip creme and lip liner. Skip the eyeshadows.

You can find Profusion Cosmetics online are at your local Target store!
