Hi lovelies! I’ve had chance to pick up a few beauty bits since I’ve been back and I'm here with a review. Most of my beauty purchases in Kenya tend to be on impulse. I occasionally pop into a Super Cosmetics or into Our Price next to Jamia Mall (speaking of which, can somebody tell me what’s happened to Our Price, it’s closed!!) to have a proper browse, but that’s maybe once or twice a month.
The first two goodies I picked up were from Suzie Beauty. I’ve been monitoring the Suzie Beauty line while I’ve been away and I’ve been dying to get my hands on this Kenyan brand! I made a dedicated stop at my nearest stockist (find your local stockist HERE) to check out the products. I tested out the foundations (although I couldn’t find a colour match, SB do promise to release two more shades in September, so fingers crossed I come up lucky), lipsticks, eye shadows and make up brushes.
After a lot of uhm-ing and ah-ing over the eyes
shadow shades, I opted for the colour ‘Usi’. Usi is a highly pigmented blue-black
matte shadow, with tiny multi-coloured shimmers running through it. But as you
can see from the picture, it’s really not a shimmer/metallic shadow per se –
the shimmery flecks are so tiny, they act as almost to deepen the colour and
give some depth to the solid matte look. You only really see the shimmer quite
close up and when moving in the light.
