New York Color Smooth Skin Bronzing Face Powder in Sunny (Review)

New York Color Smooth Skin Bronzing Face Powder in Sunny (Review)





I want to start off saying that these product was sent to me from Influenster for review purpose only This will not effect me in any way shape or form how I feel about this product. I will give my honest opinion how I feel and how the product performed in me.

I was using NYC's Sunny bronzer for many years?  So I’am no stranger to this product. I was glad to see this product in my Infuenster cause I have not used this product in such a long time cause I had moved up to bigger and higher end for my bronzer and contouring needs.  

I use to use it as a allover setting powder in the winter time cause I seem to lose a lot a color in my face . But in the summer I use it as my bronzer /contour. After I apply my foundation, concealer, and powder, I use a brush to apply this near my temples, cheeks, and neckline . . . then do my bronzing and contouring over it. It just helps warm up my face, and helps my other products to blend easier.

I'm tanned (NC45 in MAC?) If you want to use that as a reference, this produce is not orange on me. I've never had any problems with this breaking me out or causing any skin issues. 

I have repurchased this produce many times. This may not be THE BEST out there, but it works well for me. So if you are looking for a drug store inexpensive product. This product might just do the trick it worth checking out at your local drug store.

Pros
-Price it very low 
-Can be found in almost every drug store
-Does not have a scent that I am able to detect
-Finely milled  and not powdery


Con
-Can be a little orange on some people 
-May not work on darker skin 


Verdict

If you are just starting out with makeup and you don't know where to begin this is the brand for you. It is affordable and easily accessible for the makeup lover in you. So please give it a shot and I hope you love it as much I did.  Good luck


This product can be found in 
CVS, Rite Aid, Walgreen, Duane Reade and some Drug Stores and of course NYC website which there will be a link below

NYC LIQUID LIP SHINE NUDE YORK CITY REVIEW


Before I get started with the review. I just remind you that I had gotten this product as part of  my Influenster latina beauty voxbox for review purposes. This will not change my opinion in any matter what so ever as to what I think about this product.

Now the only product that I have ever tried from NYC was their bronzer in sunny and some of their liquid lip shine. So I was so excited to try out this product in this shade. This product claims to keep your lip soft. It's pure pigment ingredients create a 3-D gloss effect while vitamin E provides shine and moisture. The non-sticky formula creates the ultimate creamy and soft textured feel.

This product is available in 10 shades in stores like Rite Aid, Walgreen, CVS, Duane Read and anywhere NYC product are sold.

You can also can get it on there website which is (http://www.newyorkcolor.com)


The price for this item is 2.49


It states NYC New York Color offers products with uptown style at down-to-earth prices, from $.99 - $4.99. The energy, style and color of New York City shines through the wide range of shades, textures and innovative products. NYC always delivers the most on-trend products & shades hot off the runway!

A beauty-editor favorite is Liquid Lipshine ($2.49). It has pure pigments that created a 3-D gloss effect. Vitamin E provides shine and a moisturizing feel. The formula is non-sticky, super shiny & soft. Available in 10 on-trend shades from neutral nudes, to berries & fuchsias.


The color that I have gotten is called Nude York City #582 it a nice nude color. I think this was the stander color that everyone had gotten in there Influenster Voxbox.



As you can see it has a doe foot applicator. I notice that the applicator is very flexible and very soft when in use. The color is a lovely nude with peachy undertones. It is sheer but build able. I also notice that when you apply the lip gloss the color that's in the tube is not what you get. it is very sheer but it does have shine and a bit of shimmer that does transfer on to the lips. The texture has a smooth consistency and only slightly sticky.


Hope you can see the shine that it brings. Since I had so many things going on with the eyes. I wanted to keep the lips more natural looking and this lip gloss really did the trick.

Be warn the lip gloss does have a scent to it. The gloss smells wonderful, I believe it has vanilla, coconut and a hint of chocolate, which really makes for a great combination. But only if you like that type of thing. The scent does last for about an hour or so.

One downside for some people is that this product uses paraben preservatives. Some care, some don’t. It’s really a personal preference.
