Special FX order and review from Camerareadycosmetics.com

This is a review of the order I received Monday from Camerareadycosmetics.com. I took my time to write this review because I wanted to really have the opportunity to work with each of these products and then give my opinion.

PPI Special FX palette:
I bought this palette and received it last Monday and I played with it and was amazed at how versatile the colors were and how easy it was to use them with a sponge or a brush. I was able to create bruises on my arms that were very realistic. It's a product that is smart in the way that it lets us be intuitive with the way it works. You use 99% alcohol (ONLY 99%) and either spray in the color you want or spray the tool you are using. This is the first palette I bought from PPI on the recommendation of Ally who works at CRC but this is not the last one. I really love it and it's great to build my FX kit.

Graftobian wax works and bruises kit:
received this great kit this week on Monday and have had the time to "play" with it and get to know more about the way it works. with the wax, I created a false scar that I build more using the liquid latex (it comes with a brush) and when it looked the way I wanted (my scar), I ripped the latex with a spatula and used the blood to make it realistic. I also used my PPI Special FX palette. I recommend this kit for someone who is starting FX, whether for fun or for work. Because in my next order, there will be a big bottle of liquid latex and some type of wax and more blood.

CS Super sealer:
I have tried soo many makeup sealer in my job as a makeup-artist but this one from Cinema Secret is the best I've ever encountered. It's been very hot and humid in Quebec where I'm from and it was hard for my makeup not to melt off my face but when I used it everyday since I got it (Monday the 4 of august), my makeup stays on ALL day until "I" decide to remove it. You don't need to spray yourself 8 times like with other makeup sealer I've tried before. One spray before applying my makeup and letting it dry and one spray when I'm done keeps me oil free and with a clean face ALL day. I bought the refill size and I already put in in a spritz bottle and will keep this in my kit forever and will repurchase as soon as I see that I don't have much left. Thanks CS for this product and Camera ready cosmetics for the great advice when I asked about the product and it was recommended. Like every time, you guys are right when it comes to the products you carry. I'm very happy and it was less expensive than all the other sprays I've tried before. That's a plus when you are a freelance makeup-artist.

La femme Cake mascara:

As a freelance makeup artist, I have clients allergic to latex. I wanted to carry an mascara option for them. I tried it few times since I bought it and I'm amazed how much it coats my lashes and there is no clumps. I bought the sealer to make it waterproof and assure that it was going to stay all day. I always test products on myself before using them on my clients. I may use it on clients who don't have a latex allergy but that are not used to wearing mascara. This will be easy for them to wear on their lashes and I had no problem with it drying. I curled my lashes before and applied it after with a disposable wand. I give the product 10/10 and with the sealer, it's 12/10. 

Cinema Secret eyeliner sealer:

I bought the SC eyeliner sealer to use with my La femme cake mascara. It's an amazing sealer that keeps the mascara on all day and it waterproofs it. I will get a cake eyeliner for my kit and will already have the sealer that goes with it hand in hand. It's the perfect product to use with the La femme cake mascara and I used it with a regular eyeliner and it made it last all day. (I have non-waterproof eye liners in my pro kit and my personal kit) This product is AWESOME!

Bdelium tools SFX 12 brushes kit with pouches:

I've been building my FX kit and wanted to get the best brushes made for FX makeup. I looked up the Bdellium tools SFX 12 brushes set and fell in love. When it arrived, it didn't disappoint me. I knew I was going to like it but I LOVE it. There's a brush for everything and it comes with these 2 awesome robust pouches. I put my 12 brushes in 1 of them and in the other one, I put several smaller FX products and I can clip them together. It's well worth the investment to have the right tools especially when you are doing detailed work as SFX. I used these this week when I created wounds and looks on myself with the rest of the products I ordered and they were fantastic. I highly recommend this kit for makeup artist who want to do special FX. Bdellium tools is a great brand of makeup brushes. I'm giving this kit a 10/10.

Mehron ADMED adhesive remover:

I'm happy I bought this adhesive removers because it was very useful this week when I tested latex and other adhesives. This took care of them all and even the wax that is sticky and hard to remove. It's a must-have product in an SFX kit for any makeup artist or SFX lover. This is going to be useful for every SFX makeup I'll do when I'll use adhesives. Highly recommend.

MAQPRO fard flashy palette:
When I got the palette, I couldn't imagine how pigmented this small kit was. I tried several of the colors when doing fake injuries on myself with the rest of my SFX products and these fards gave me great pigmentation and it's not going to take too much place in my kit, which is always a positive thing. I highly recommend the MAQPro flashy palette for the pigmentation and the price.

Ben nye stage blood:
I bought a smaller size of the blood to test it out. It looked realistic and didn't taste bad at all. I will get a bigger size of this stage blood and also the BN thicker blood, I want both options. Overall, I'm really satisfied and I think for starting in SFX it's awesome. (the size) But it looks soo realistic, I am very happy with this product. 

Ben nye clown white makeup:

I bought it recently and tested it on a side of my face and it didn't take a loot to give me FULL coverage (white, totally). I'm very happy with the product and can't wait to play with it more. As a makeup-artist, all of my products are things I play with when it's something new. Playing as in testing it out.  Great product and it took such a small amount to cover half of my adult face. It was great!

Ben Nye effects gels kit:

I bought the big kit containing the 3 gels in the 2 oz bottles. This week I used one of them (the flesh tone one) and created something very creepy with in on my arm. I used a bain-marie (double-boiler) to heat up the gel and there was no problem with that method and it was easy to heat. It's such an amazing thing to work with. you can do soo much wih it. I used it in conjunction with my PPI FX palette and my MAQpro flashy palette and my wounds were very realistic. This is a must have in a makeup artist special FX kit.

This is not going to be my last order. I love love my CRC and won't go elsewhere because when you have the best, why go look anywhere else? https://camerareadycosmetics.com

camerareadycosmetics.com review

I placed an order at Camerareadycosmetics.com last week (on Thursday I think) and received my package yesterday. I was soo happy!!! Now for the more serious part, I'm going to do a review. 
I ordered the Cinema Secret palette #1 (corrector) and it is awesome. I was using another brand before but after trying their foundation, I'm also sold on their corrector/concealer. They are creamy and you need soo little to correct and conceal. My issues are redness left from previous breakouts and it took a tiny bit to conceal them. I will be ordering soon my foundation color from cinema secret, it's just been unavailable in the past week or so (in the 500, the #11) 
I ordered also the Graftobian lipstick palette in "cool". I tested it today and it is AWESOME, the lipstick blends perfectly, has good coverage, has no scent and doesn't fade (been wearing it for 4 hours in which I drank 2 coffee and smoked a cigarette. (I know it's bad but to let you know how amazing the lipstick is, I have to be honest). I will be ordering the other palettes or the bigger one with 18 lipstick in it. Need to think about it. :-)
I got 2 lip pencils from Cinema Secrets, one in "car wash" (same as last time because I want one in my professional kit and one in my own personnal kit) and the other color is "persimmon" and they are not only creamy but they are really pigmented and SOO affordable.
Because of youtube, I wanted to try to DUO adhesive lash glue and couldn't find it anywhere in store, so I ordered it and yesterday I put some falsies on and ALLELUIA, ALLELUIA, ALLELUIA, I know why people love the glue soo much. It's the best I've tried yet. 
The last thing I bought is the "Japonesque set bag", which will help me on jobs when I want to carry some of my products but not all of them, like if the person needs to be retouched but without me carrying my whole kit. I love the fact that there's 3 BIG pockets on each side of the bag (with an elastic to make sure the bottles or the product doensn't go over and fall, and 2 HUGE velcro pockets on the extremities of the bags (one on each). I have tried the bag yesterday, testing by putting different things in it and I'm thrilled. This is a good investment. It contains a LOT and is made of a solid material. 

I'm joining pictures of my haul, all taken this morning.

Once again I'm very satisfied by Camera ready cosmetics.com and will review each of the products. 
See you soon!

Commande de produits chez Camera Ready Cosmetics et opinion sur les produits reçus.

La semaine dernière j'ai passé une commande sur le site internet Camera Ready Cosmetics (site de cosmétiques pour les professionnels) et j'ai reçu mon paquet hier. Ma commande était 3 palettes de fond de teint en crème de la marque Cinema Secret (#3, 7, 10) qui étaient chaudement recommandés par KJ Bennett sur son site IN MY KIT (un site pour aider les artistes-maquilleurs à bâtir un kit professionnel de qualité et au meilleur prix possible), site qui en passant m'a beaucoup aidée.

Premièrement, le service à la clientèle offert par Camera Ready Cosmetics était incroyable. Mary, la propriétaire du magasin a non seulement pris ma commande mais a répondu à toutes mes questions rapidement et avec le plus de précision pour bien me guider. En passant, je tiens à préciser que j'ai payé pour tous les produits de ma commande chez CRC et que personne ne me paie pour faire ce compte-rendu.

J'ADORE le fond de teint de la marque CINEMA SECRET. Je l'ai testé en essayant une des palettes qui avait ma couleur exacte et je me suis servie d'une autre couleur comme cache-imperfection. Le fond de teint est pigmenté, il ne faut qu'un petit pois pour couvrir le visage au complet. Je me suis servie de ma spatule et de la palette de chez QOSMEDIX pour prendre l'infime quantité nécessaire pour couvrir mon visage en entier. La spatule et la palette en stainless steel sont tellement plus facile d'utilisation et beaucoup plus hygiénique que ce que j'utilisais avant qui était en plastique (ça se désinfecte beaucoup mieux). Je me suis servie d'une seconde couleur pour cacher mes imperfections et ça a fonctionné à merveille. J'ai utilisé l'éponge mauve de chez QOSMEDIX qui est comme un Beauty Blender mais au lieu de couter 26$, elle coûte seulement 1,95$ et contrairement aux éponges vendues en pharmacies, elle fonctionne à merveille. Pour revenir au sujet du fond de teint, il offre une couverture totale et cache à merveille toutes les imperfections et une personne qui n'a besoin que d'un fini léger ou moyen, le fond de teint est fait pour être dilué avec une lotion hydratante, vraiment, je ne pourrais pas être plus contente de mes achats.

J'ai aussi acheté à moins de 3$ du crayons à lèvre de la marque CINEMA SECRET, 2 crayons à lèvres des couleurs "car wash" et "neked". Le crayon que j'ai testé "car wash" est la couleur exacte de mes lèvres, il est doux, crémeux et s'applique comme un charme. Je l'ai utilisé avec mon rouge à lèvre préféré de Lise Watier "Jennifer" et tout ça faisait super beau. Ce qui est pratique avec ces crayons c'est qu'ont peut les aiguiser donc facile à désinfecter car après les avoir aiguisés et les avoir vaporiser avec de l'alcool à friction 99%, je peux les utiliser sur une autre personne de façon hygiénique et sanitaire. (dans les règles de l'art) La dernière chose que j'ai acheté sur le site Camera Ready Cosmetics c'est une poudre translucide de Ben Nye (compagnie de maquillage professionnel qui dessert les productions cinématographiques et les théâtres partout dans le monde) que j'ai testé et qui fait magnifiquement bien. Elle matifie (rend le visage sans luisance) et ne paraît pas du tout. Je donne 10/10 à cette commande et j'en passerai une autre dès demain lorsque sera ouvert l'endroit où j'achète mes cartes de crédit pré-payées. Je passerai également une commande pour tous mes pinceaux et outils jetables pour maquiller chez QOSMEDIX, la même compagnie d'où j'ai pris les produits dont j'ai parlé la semaine dernière sur mon blogue. Ça ne paraît pas mais pour être hygiénique, il est nécessaire d'avoir tous les produits jetables (bons pour une utilisation) lorsque l'on maquille les gens. Parlant de QOSMEDIX, j'ai eu un excellent service à la clientèle provenant d'une madame appelée Courtney M. représentante aux ventes et au marketing de la compagnie.

Une dernière review, hier en me faisant mes commissions j'ai acheté la palette "The Nudes" de Maybelline. Elle ne contient que des couleurs neutres et naturelles, ce qui est le plus demandé par mes clientes. J'ai testé la palette ce matin et les couleurs ont une bonne pigmentation, 6 des 12 couleurs s'utilisent sans base mais avec une base, elles sont toutes magnifiques. Je la recommande à tous et toutes, elle m'a coutée 13,99$ chez Uniprix. Je vais la mettre dans mon kit professionnel même si j'ai déjà plusieurs palettes de couleurs neutres, une de plus (de qualité;) c'est toujours utille pour donner le choix à mes clientes du look qu'elles veulent. J'ai une majorité de produits dits de "haute-gamme" dans mon kit professionnel mais tout produit de qualité a sa place dedans, qu'il soit de haute gamme ou un produit de pharmacie. Pour moi, c'est ce qui est important c'est la qualité du produit.





Camera Ready Cosmetics haul and review

I bought from Camera Ready Cosmetics last week and received it yesterday 3 Cinema secrets foundation palette (number 3-7-10) I took the recommation on which palette to get from the website IN MY KIT from celebrity makeup-artist KJ Bennett. 
First of all, the customer service offered by CRC was amazing. Mary (the owner) took care of my order and answered my questions really fast and it made me feel like I could trust them. (By the way, this review is my own opinion, I have paid for each products ordered) 
I ADORE the foundation, as you will see in the picture, I have tested one of the palette using my spatula and my palette from QOSMEDIX and man they were useful, nothing compared to the plastic spatulas I was using before. The foundation like it said on the reviews offers full coverage and doesn't need a lot of product. I have tried it yesterday and today and I'm in love. I will re-order the palette I used and the foundation itself. It's affordable and amazing and will cover the wide-range of my clientele. I will get the remaining palettes in KJ Bennett's recommendation. (1 and 11). I also ordered 2 lip pencils from Cinema Secret in "Car wash" and "neked", they are soo smooth and the one I tested "car wash" was exactly my lip color and I used it with my favorite Lise Watier lipstick in "Jennifer". The last thing I ordered was the Ben nye colorless powder in his neutral set collection.
I give my order 10/10, I will order again from Camera Ready Cosmetics, by again I mean tomorrow (today is Canada day and the place I get my pre-paid credit cards is closed) and I will place an order from QOSMEDIX to get all of my disposables. I have had awesome customer service with them exchanging emails with a lady named Courtney M who works as a Marketing and Sales assistant. I doubt she will read my blog but she was as helpful as Mary from Camera Ready Cosmetics was.
I bought yesterday the Maybelline palette "The nudes" that I had heard about from Emily Noel's Youtube review. I have used it only today but I loved the pigmentation of most shadows and with a primer, all of the colors are good (some, I would say half of the 12 have awesome pigmentation without a primer) but for 13,99$ (CAD) and 12 eyeshadow in neutral colors, I feel it was a good buy and I would recommend it to anyone. I will put this in my kit. I have other nude/neutral palettes in my kit but the more, the better (as long as it is pigmented and does the job the brand whether it's high-end or drugstore products. What matters is quality, well in my own opinion anyway.
So attached are the pictures of my haul.

QOSMEDIX haul/review

 I was lucky enough to be able to test some of the quality products offered by QOSMEDIX. They are a well-known manufacturer of beauty-related products. In our field, we need brushes for makeup, we also need to use disposables when doing client's makeup to be sanitary and QOSMEDIX is a company that does that and much more products. 

The products in my haul and that I am reviewing for you are: falses lashes that were demi (I would say they have a demi wispy style) and it was 6 pairs for 8,55$. I just used a pair on myself and they were easy to apply and are giving me a great eye look. In my haul there was an oblong blending sponge that feels exactly like the beauty blender but the price is... you won't believe it: 1,95$ instead of the 26$ that is the cost for the Beauty blender. I know, isn't that amazing? I wanted to keep it for my clients but I had to try it and it is perfect. I have a drugstore fake beauty blender (same color, same size but very dense and not fun to work with. I still regret the 10$ I paid for the "fake one" but this one was a charm to apply foundation with and I will get more of the QOSMEDIX ones for my pro kit.


I also had sphere shaped head mascara wands.What is soo great about them is that because of the shape of the head, it makes it easy to reach every lashes, starting very close to the lashline. Usually it is difficult to reach the inner lashline without making a mess with the mascara. Their cost is only 5,50$ for 50 wands. When I have clients, I need makeup sponges, I always get the latex-free ones and usually a bag costs me 7$ CAD, this block of 12 trapezoid shaped thick makeup sponge costed only 1,10$ and their shape was very helpful to highlight the under eye area with some creamy highlighter (Boots #7 highlighter) .


The 2 last things in my haul are a must for every makeup artist or even anyone who uses makeup regularly. A dual ended mixing spatula in stainless steel, on one of the side I scooped out my cream foundation and with the other side I mixed it with my liquid foundation before applying it with my new fabulous purple blending sponge. The spatula is sold for only 5,00$ which is a steal when you look at every other places where you get makeup-artist materials and disposables. The last one I use to mix my cream foundation with my liquid one is a rectangular mixing palette with a mirror finish (and the mirror works, you see it on my Youtube haul/review video). The mixing palette, made of stainless steel is only 4,00$ and it is a charm to clean up after with 99% alcohol which is what you need to do when you are a makeup-artist or someone who uses a mixing palette because it disinfect and cleans so there is no germs left. This baby and the rest of my haul is already in my kit


I will post pictures of all of the products but let me tell you that all of these items are amazing AND the prices are very affordable for us, makeup-artist who need to buy them constantly to replenish our case because we use them on clients on a daily basis. If you want to go and purchase from them, the link is http://www.qosmedix.com/ . And it is not an affiliate link, I make no money if you click on my link. It's simply that I was amazed at the quality of the products.












Thursday, June 19, 2014

OK, this is my ELF haul, I will post the name of each item with it's price and give you my honest opinion. I purchased with my own money all of the products. But even if they had been send to me, I'd still be giving you my honest opinion. For those who know me, you know I'm as authentic as can be. What you see is what you get. :-)

Ok, voici la revue des produits achetés chez E.L.F. par internet. J'écris le nom de chaque produit, son prix et mon opinion. J'ai acheté avec mon propre argent chacun de ces produits. Mais même s'ils m'avaient été envoyés pour être revus, mon opinion serait la même. Je suis authentique, pour ceux et celles qui me connaissent vous me savez transparente.

Ils viennent en paquet de 12 applicateurs et ils sont géniaux pour mes clientes (pour des raisons d'hygiène). Encore une fois, je me tape sur la tête de ne pas en avoir acheté plus. J'ai l'impression d'en avoir besoin d'une dizaine (de paquets).

Makeup Mist & Set:

Brumisateur qui rafraichit et fixe le maquillage:

Cost/coût : $3.00

Love love love for using on my client to set their makeup but as a mixing medium to foil eyeshadows. I bought 2 of them and beat myself up for not getting more than that.

J'adore ce produit, je m'en sers sur mes clientes pour fixer leur maquillage (comme un fixatif à cheveux mais pour le maquillage et fait de produits naturels: aloe vera, vitamine a et e) mais aussi comme "mixing medium" pour faire vibrer les ombres à paupières sur mes clientes. J'en ai acheté deux seulement et je me dis que j'aurais dû en commander plusieurs autres. C'est le même concet que Lise Watier Magnifix ou Mac Fix Plus mais à seulement 3$.




Contouring Blush & Bronzing Cream: color is St. Lucia

Crème pour contourer le visage et blush dans la couleur: St-Lucia

Cost/coût : $3.00


I’m very impressed. I use both colors as blushes and on some lighter skin I can contour with the darker one. I will buy the powder version also. I have one in my kit and I gave the other one to my friend Line who was crazy about the colors when I did her makeup.

Je suis très impressionnée. J'utilise les deux couleurs comme blush et sur certains teints plus pâles je peux me servir de la couleur plus foncée pour faire le contour du visage. Je vais acheter la même chose mais en poudre. J'en avais commandé deux, j'en ai donné 1 à mon amie Line qui est tombée en amour avec ce produit lorsque je l'ai maquillée.



Zit Zapper

Le Zit Zapper (pour faire partir les boutons)

Cos/coûtt : $1.00


The Zit Zapper didn't worked on me but I gave the second one to a friend who swears by it. It depends on the skin type I think.

Ce produit n'a pas fonctionné pour moi mais j'ai donné le second à une amie qui ne jure que par ce produit. J'imagine que ça dépends du type de peau.



High Definition Powder: color in sheer

Poudre HD (Haute Définition): couleur translucide

Cost/coût : $6.00


I love love love it. And even if I bought 2 of them, I plan to purchase backups, I want to try the yellow one. (some say it's a dupe for a well-known brand) We shall see when I buy it.

J'ADORE ce produit et même si j'en ai acheté deux, je planifie de m'en acheter quelques uns à l'avance. Je veux essayer celui dont la poudre est jaune. (on dit que ce serait une immitation d'une poudre jaune bien connue) Nous le saurons lorsque je l'achèterai ainsi que la poudre en question.




Custom Eyes Refill Pan: Moondust (eyeshadow)

Ombre à paupière en recharge: couleur Moondust

Cost/coût :$1.00


I love the color and it's pigmentation.

J'aime la couleur et sa pigmentation.



Smudge pot: Hit the town

Ombre à paupière en crème: couleur Hit the town (gris foncé/noir)

Cost/coût : $ 2.00


I loved the Smudge Pot in Hit the Town, it's soo pigmented. I adore it and will buy more colors of these babies.... I had just bought the quartlet of Lise Watier in "Les Charbons" (for black smokey looks) and this was an AWESOME base and it did amazing looks. Let me know if you want me to post a picture of me wearing any of those products.

J'aime cette ombre à paupière dans la couleur "hit the town" parce qu'elle est vraiment pigmentée. Je l'aime tant que je planifie déjà d'acheter d'autres ombres à pauières en crème d'ELF. Je venais juste de m'acheter le quatuor "Les Charbons" de Lise Watier, quatre couleurs pour un beau look charbonneux et je me suis servie de cette ombre à paupière comme base et les résultats ont été GÉNIAUX. Dites-moi si vous voulez voir des photos....

.

Small Stipple Brush

Le petit pinceau '"stipple" (je ne trouve aucune traduction qui me plait)

Cost/coût : $3.00

The small stipple brush is very versatile. I love love love it and will buy more. I love to have more than one of my favorite brush. I have one in my personal kit and one for freelancing

Ce petit pinceau est très versatile autant pour appliquer des produits liquides, que des produits en crème que des poudres. Je l'aime vraiment et j'aime avoir plus qu'un de mes pinceaux préférés. J'en ai un dans mon kit personnel et dans mon kit professionnel.



Powder Brush

Pinceau à poudre:

Cost/coût : $3.00

This powder brush is amazing. I love love love it! I have one in my personal kit and one for freelancing.

Ce pinceau à poudre est incroyable. Je l'adore tant il s'utilise facilement et fait son travail correctement. J'en ai un dans mon kit personnel et dans mon kit professionnel.


I will order again from E.L.F and I know I can count on Kay on customer support if I have a problem. I am dying to try all of the other custom eyeshadow refill pan in every other color and their studio brushes. I saw the brush belt, I need this also, I don't have one. Man it felt like Christmas when I opened the box. Nothing was broken, everything was package well. I got a little bonus, it was an eyeshadow trio I think, I don't know because my dearest friend M-J got it because these were her colors.

Je vais commander à nouveau de chez ELF et je sais que je peux compter sur Kay, au service à la clientèle si jamais j'ai un problème. (Elle a répondu à toutes mes questions lorsque j'ai appelé;) Je meurs d'envie d'essayer d'autres couleurs d'ombres à paupière et d'autres pinceaux de la ligne Studio. J'avais l'impression que c'était Noël lorsque j'ai ouvert ma boîte. Tout était bien emballé et rien n'était brisé. J'ai reçu un petit bonus, je pense que c'était un trio d'ombres à paupière, je ne me rappelle plus car je l'ai offert à mon amie M-Josée parce qu'il était dans ses couleurs...

E.L.F is not known in the Saguenay Lac St-Jean area so I'm sharing with my friends and my clients the quality of their products.

La compagnie ELF n'est pas connue au Saguenay Lac St-Jean alors je partage avec mes amis-es et mes clientes ces produits géniaux et de grande qualité à prix plus qu'abordables.
