I have three shades, and while I've never tried any of them on the lips, I can readily attest to how well they work on both the face and eyes.
Glow - is a bright, watermelon pink, with a noticeable sheen. I barely even need to touch my brush into this color to get enough product to use as a blush.
Rose Gold - is a bronzy peach, also with a pretty heavy sheen. I like to use this one on the cheeks - again, with a light hand - and since I also love doing peachy eye looks, I regularly use it as an eye shadow too.
Taupe - is an interesting medium brown shade. It looks like a cool-toned brown in the pan, but on the skin it has a golden glow that warms the colour up a good deal. Of the three shades, I've definitely used this one the most. It's a very versatile, medium crease shade and works great to blend out almost any eye look. I find myself reaching for it all the time.
Pure + Simple's Face Colours are some of the most pigmented pressed makeup items in my collection. If you're fair like me - and maybe even if you're not - you really need to be careful not to pick up too much product when using them on the face. Otherwise, you can very easily end up in clown cheek territory. In all three shades I've used, the shimmer is very finely milled, so while the colours give off a beautiful sheen, there's no actual sparkles or glitter on your face. They're also buttery soft and blend easily, so even being so pigmented, they aren't a difficult product to work with.
Have you used anything from Pure + Simple?
These look gorgeous, especially Taupe and Glow! I love the versatility of these products and definitely have them on my radar now.
ReplyDeleteGreat! Let me know if you end up trying them :)
DeleteNew to me, thank you for introducing! So far I've only tried Pure + Simple skincare products, which are also great, but the makeup looks impressive. Glow and Rose gold will be put on my wishlist :) xx
ReplyDeleteVery welcome! I haven't used a lot from P+S, but what I have has been great! What skincare did you try?
DeleteOoh not heard of these before! Love that Taupe shade! x
ReplyDeleteI don't think they're very well known outside Canada, but hopefully that will change! I love Taupe too :)
DeleteI LOVE these blushes. I've been getting super into the rose gold lately...it imparts such a beautiful glow during this time of year. Never knew about the Taupe shade! Looks great!!!
ReplyDeleteYes! I was especially stuck on the Rose Gold during the summer, but I think it works great any time of year :)
