This is round two of my H&M Makeup Haul. The is the face products round 🙂 If you want to see the eye products I picked up, just click on the link here and you can see them up close and swatched. Again, I’ll link the UK H&M website here for all price listings as I bought these in Norway and was probably ripped off 🙂 Everything is pretty reasonable price wise .
First up in my H&M makeup haul part two is the Cover-Up Concealer.
Now, I wanted this in Ivory, but I couldn’t find one on the stand to save my life, so I got Vanilla, that’s a tad dark for my skin, but sure I’ll make it work. This would be an all over skin concealer, however I think I will chance it as an under eye one and see how it works.
It has a thin consistency and seems to blend really well into the skin. On first swatch it hasn’t a huge amount of coverage, but it definitely seems like it could be build-able.
I just blended it really softly here
Next up is their Immaculate Compact Foundation.
I chose this over one of their setting powders because I tend to like a bit of coverage with my face powders.
This is in the shade Ivory and I adore the packaging.
It comes with a mirror, the powder and than a sponge underneath.
The powder is really finely milled. There is a bit of a weird scent to it but nothing to crazy. After swatching it, the shade Ivory which I believe is the lightest shade they do may be slightly to dark for my natural (MacNC20) skin tone.
This is a bit annoying considering there are paler people than me out there.
I also got their Solar Flair Bronzing Powder. I had actually seen Lily Pebbles talk fondly of this so I knew it was something I wanted to try.
Again, I love the sleek packaging and it comes with a good sized mirror.
I got the shade ‘Sheer Tan’. I think this was the lightest bronzing shade they do. I really like that they do different colours. That is not a regular thing within a beauty brand.
I can detect a really really subtle sheen to the powder when swatched and like the powder foundation it is a really finely milled powder. I think I’m really going to like this 🙂
The last thing I have to show is one of the H&M Pure Radiance Powder Blushers.
Again, I’ll address the packaging, it’s super pretty and these have a gold bottom which I really love.
I chose the shade ‘Sunrise Pink’. I thought this was the most wearable shade for me.
It’s a dusky pink with a fleck of gold sparkle running through it. When you apply it though, the shimmer doesn’t seem to translate too much.
Personally, I’m happy about this, but if you’re looking for the sparkle you might not be.
Overall, on first impressions, I am really pleased with my H&M makeup purchases. The packaging, the products themselves and the price points are really great. I look forward to actually applying these to my mug now and seeing how they fare 🙂
Thanks for reading.
