Product Review: Iman Stick Foundation

Friday, November 19, 2010


This is my first ever stick foundation (in Earth 5) from Iman. I use it to contour my face instead of applying it as foundation as this color is too dark for my skin. That's why I decided to use it as face contouring. This foundation is easy to blend and apply. It's definitely suitable for people with darker skin as it gives them a beautiful even glow for a flawless look. Basically, there are three different shades offered, namely Sand (light), Clay (medium) and Earth (deep).


About Iman Cosmetics

Iman Cosmetics, Skincare and Fragrances are designed for African American, Asian, Latina and multi-cultural women with skin tones in a myriad of shades. The brand offers skincare and cosmetics, including 16 foundation shades. Iman Cosmetics, Skincare and Fragrances are sold throughout the world including the United States, Canada, UK, France, Brazil, Africa, and the Caribbean.

You can put Iman Cosmetics to the test over your current foundation in L'Oreal, Revlon, Fashion Fair, Black Opal, or MAC to find a comparable Iman Cosmetics shade.

Iman products can be found at mass retailers like Target, Wal-Mart, Ulta, Walgreens and Duane Reade.

Product Review: DUO Adhesive

Friday, November 12, 2010


"A safe, latex adhesive to use with M·A·C Lashes and all M·A·C body decoration" - MAC

So far, DUO Adhesive (picture above) is the best lash glues I've ever used and it can be found at MAC stores (please don't confuse this as DON, which can be found at Sasa, because it looks more or less like DUO). I'm not sure how good DON is as I haven't tried it yet!
Now, going back to DUO, it has two tone versions - clear and dark. Somehow, MAC stores in Malaysia don't carry the dark tone version and I don't know why that is! So, I have no choice but to buy the clear tone version. Why do I like this product? Because it's white-colored glue that dries almost clear (even if you use a lot ) and it works amazingly well! The glue lasts all day and won't come off until you remove it. The packaging gets clogged with dried glue, but it's easy to pull the dry piece out.
