Jouer Blush Bouquet in Flirt

April 9, 2018 | Beauty, Jouer | 12 Comments »

I’ve talked about Jouer on the blog quite a bit. I absolutely love their face products! Their blushes and highlighters are wonderful. I wasn’t exactly blown away with their liquid lipsticks, but their metallic liquid lipsticks are amazing. However, I’m beginning to think that I may have been too quick to judge because the more I try from the brand the more I love them. I guess I didn’t choose well the first time around.

I feel like their new product launches aren’t so over the top yet they still call to me. Their products are so elegant and beautiful on their own that they really speak for themselves. And because of that I find myself wanting it all. Even when I’m on a bit of a no-buy. I’m sure you see where I’m going with this.

When I first saw promo photos of the Blush Bouquet duos I knew I was going to break my no-buy. They come in 3 shades; Coquette, Adore, and Flirt. I purchased Flirt. This duo contains 2 complimentary blushes that are said to deliver full pigment color and blend to a perfect finish. The 2 blushes included in Flirt are Kiss Me which is a warm carnation pink with a matte finish and Touch Me which is a shimmering warm light peach. Both shades really do compliment each other beautifully. You can use them individually, swirl together, or do what I did which is layer the shimmer shade on top of the matte. I pretty much treated it like a blush/highlighter duo and the end result was a beautiful, more natural look.

Touch Me was very soft and velvety. Kiss Me was a little stiffer, but not overly so. They both applied and blended beautifully! They’re nicely pigmented and build up easily for a bolder look. The packaging really brings this whole duo together. It’s easily the most elegant looking blush duo in my collection. If you’re going to break a no-buy, it had better be for something as beautiful as the Blush Bouquet duo. Because really who can blame you? Look at it!

Jouer Spring Collection 2017

August 17, 2017 | Beauty, Jouer | 6 Comments »

I’m still making my way through all of my purchases since the move. So it shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise to see a post about a Spring Collection when I should be posting about Fall Collections. I just felt this one was too pretty to skip over.

I was really tempted to purchase the entire Jouer Spring Collection, but after seeing swatches and reading reviews I settled on the Long-Wear Lip Creme Liquid Lipstick in Rose Gold and the Powder Highlighter also in Rose Gold.

I know I said I wouldn’t purchase any more of Jouer’s liquid lipsticks because I just wasn’t a fan. However, I did say that I loved the formula of the metallic shades. And Rose Gold is a metallic shade. It’s described as a metallic deep rose gold. It applied beautifully. It had the most wonderfully creamy texture. I really do love the way the metallic shades feel on my lips. They’re so comfortable! Thankfully this shade was a little more wearable than Praline.

I think the real winner in this collection is the Powder Highlighter in Rose Gold. It’s the most beautiful shimmering rose gold shade! I had to move my hand around quite a bit just to capture the perfect shot. I’m never truly satisfied with my shots, but this time I believe I captured it perfectly. You can see the pretty gold at the bottom leading to the beautiful rose shade at the top of the swatch. This truly is a gorgeous highlighter. One I’ll be reaching for quite often.

Jouer Lip Crème Liquid Lipstick in Fruit De La Passion

September 22, 2016 | Beauty, Jouer | 20 Comments »

I guess at this point I should just call this Jouer Cosmetics month. These products have been sitting on top of my tool box for weeks now and I figured I may was well work my way through them. Especially since I have a ton of new items coming in soon.

Fruit De La Passion was an easy choice for me. It’s described as a cool bright pink. Even though I have a ton of similar shades I just can’t say no to a beautiful bright pink. Fruit De La Passion has the same vanilla scent as Praline. It has a really nice creamy texture and applied nicely. It dries down pretty fast so I really had to work fast. It feels awkward as it’s drying and you’re still working on applying it. But once it fully dries down it’s not so bad. For the most part it was a nice comfortable wear. It’s a pretty lightweight lipstick. And it held up pretty well with food and drink throughout the day. Toward the end of the day it started to feel pretty dry and even flake a bit, but the color was still going strong.

I could do without the flaking because that is so not a good look. But it wasn’t really noticeable to anyone but me. I definitely prefer the formula of Praline and wish this was exactly like it. But it’s still an ok lipstick and one that I’ll definitely get use out of. But if I’m being completely honest, I don’t see myself purchasing any more of their liquid lipsticks. I’m just not a fan of them. You can see Fruit De La Passion in action below!
