MY GO TO MAKEUP MATCH BOOK

Lately when it comes to makeup, I am all about convenience and natural, but still pretty. I don't take myself a lot of time to get ready and apply my makeup, but I still want to look presentable and good about myself. I have discovered the easiest way to apply makeup especially when I am in a hurry or traveling. It is the Match Book by TINte Cosmetics. They carry a three of them: Smokey Eyes, Natural Beauty and Blushed Beauty. I decided to go with a Blushed Beauty, that includes two eyeshadow colours, blusher, eye liner, two lip glosses and two tiny brushes. It all comes in hard cardboard box with the mirror. It closes with the magnet, so no makeup stains in my handbag, because I carry it with me all the time.


I think that Blushed Beauty one is perfect for fall. It definitely adds a warmth and colour into face while staying subtle and natural. Eye shadows are not matte, but shimmery. They have that slight sheen to it. Lighter colour is a pink vanilla like shade that will make a good base and highlight colour. Darker one is a natural brown that fits perfectly into crease or makes a good all over lid shade. Cream eyeliner is the most beautiful dark purple plum colour.
Rosy blusher gives that healthy complexion on cheeks with only one swipe, because it is quite pigmented.
Lip glosses are more like lip lacquers, they stay on without any problem. You can drink at least two cups of coffee, they don't smear anywhere. With lacquers like that you can experience a slight stickiness, but it is not super sticky or gross. Pink gloss is perfect for daytime, darker can be perfect for that extra push or if you feel that it is just one of these days if you need more colour in your life.



I am little bit unsure about these brushes. Eye shadow brush could be more thicker in my opinion, but it does its job if you don't want to carry extra brushes or sponge applicators with you. I personally think that with these shadows you can't make mistakes even when you apply them with your fingers. Outcome will be perfect! Eyeliner brush does its job extremely well, nothing to complain about. It is not angled brush, but cream liner goes on without unnecessary struggle. Lip brush is like any other lip brush- synthetic and small. Other than that it is noticeable that these are good quality brushes, they don't shed or fall apart. It is not easy to have good brushes with makeup palettes.

With the good size mirror and whole concept of this palette I think that it is incredibly good to have this. Ladies with a busy lifestyle or ladies who don't want to invest a lot of time into makeup application would make the most of this product.
