L'BRI Giveaway & Review!

**This was not a paid post. My honest opinions were used, they are solely my own & they may vary from others.The products mentioned below have been provided by L'BRI for the review & giveaway free of charge.**


I don't get break outs on my face often but I do get a lot of small black heads on my nose so I like keeping a daily skin routine of keeping my face clean to help prevent any break outs or larger black heads.  My skin is pretty sensitive so I try not to use facial products that are too strongly scented, or that create a dry feeling so I test out everything on my hand before applying it to my face to prevent blemishes or redness from irritation. Anytime I get a product that doesn't agree with me I will let you all know as well, but that isn't the case with this collection of products they all feel great. I was recently sent some great products from a company called L'BRI to test out and I have to admit the gentle cleansing wash I received is neck and neck with my favorite face wash of all time.

                 

Gentle Skin Care Trio: This set comes with a cleanser, freshener and a lotion all designed to help normal and dry skin, it retails for $56.95. The cleanser has a thin formula so you only need about a dime sized amount for your whole face so the 6oz bottle will last you quite some time. It has a light rose smell which is actually quite pleasant and it leaves my skin feeling moisturized, refreshed, light and silky smooth. Instead of leaving my face feeling tight due to the face wash drying it out or feeling greasy my face is almost left feeling fluffy and clean and the smell gives it an airy feel. The fresher is a  moisturizing mist meant to help keep your face feeling fresh through out the day, to be honest I don't see myself using this once much because the cleanser and lotion do an excellent job. The lotion I love using on my face and my hands, which I normally don't like doing because most lotions give me blemishes but this is light, non-greasy or oily and doesn't have any strong scents to irritate my skin.

Exfoliating face and body wash: This product offers a great mixture between a bead filled scrub and a normal face wash. The formula spreads out quite a bit and there isn't an overwhelming amount of scrub in it which is nice for the face, neck, back, etc. It has a light floral and almost coco scent to it which is nice. The bottle is a great shape to help get all of the product out as you are using up the bottle.

Oil-Free Moisturizer with Sunscreen: I like applying this to my face in the morning because I get ready to go out for the day, it does have a light sunscreen smell to it but it isn't overpowering and doesn't have any kind of odd funky smell to it. Much like their other products the formula used is light weight so you will need very little of this to cover your face. It does not leave my face feeling greasy and oily just clean and moist, it absorbs into the skin quickly and you can really feel it sinking in. It makes a great base under foundation and is a product my skin really seems to agree with. Since I've started using the gentle cleanser and this moisturizer I can tell a bit of a difference in the way my skin looks, from time to time I get dry patches on my nose but I haven't had any issues with that since using these products. I've been using these products for about a week now and I do really enjoy them.



Eye shadow collection for Brown eyes: This collection of eye shadows comes with four different colors which are Flax a caramel color, Eucalyptus a almost forest green, Bisque a white, and Smoked plum a purplish brown. The case they came in is pretty sturdy and actually a little difficult to open but that is also a good thing because it means it won't pop open in my makeup bag. Two of the color tins are a little lose in the packaging and wiggle around when using that specific color but so far they don't seem to be going anywhere just a little wiggly. The eye shadow formula is smooth and soft to the touch when applying it to your skin, all of the colors are pretty light so I would suggest using a eye primer under the shadow. The image shown above is 2-3 layers of the shadows included in the set out in the sunlight. This retails for $33.95



Velvet touch retractable eyeliner in Teal shimmer: I like the product packaging for this liner, the liner end is a little thinner than the twisting end which helps you get a better grip on the eyeliner. The cap stays in place and requires a little force to get off so you won't need to worry about the cap randomly falling off. This teal liner is a little more on the green side than blue and has silver shimmer sparkles through out. You can create thin lines using this product or if you want to blend it the product blends easily. There is a small sharpener tucked away in the end of this which is nice for when you want to keep it sharp to achieve thin lines.

Five Piece Brush Set: The carrying case this comes in is fantastic, it is a faux leather wallet sized case that has a magnetic close and a flap that goes over your brushes both to keep them protected and help keep any loose pigments from falling out everywhere. It comes with five essential pieces you would want to take with you while traveling which includes a nylon bristle Powder Brush, Shading Brush, Lip Brush, Angled Eyebrow Brush, Eyebrow & Eyelash w/Comb. The brushes are soft and seems to be well made the only brush that had any bristles coming lose or out of place was the eyebrow brush. This set retails for $40
