Look and Feel Radiant with Cosmetics by Vasanti

I love makeup.  I don’t wear it every day, but there’s something about taking time to do my makeup that makes me feel better.  Not to mention it’s really fun to play around with makeup and come up with new looks!

I’m always happy when I get to try new makeup, so I was super excited when Vasanti Cosmetics offered to send over a few products to take for a test drive.

Vasanti is one of the top cosmetic brands in Canada.  In addition to offering products with terrific colors and quality, their cosmetics are exactly the kind of product we look for here at Game on Mom: they’re paraben-free, not tested on animals, and some of them are even vegan-friendly!

I have been using the Blush Duo, Lipline Extreme Lip Pencil, and the Love Brights Gel Matte Lipstick, and I can highly recommend them without hesitation!

My blush duo is the Set for Life color combo, which is a really natural-looking, peachy/pink blush duo.  I didn’t realize how bad my old blush was until I used this Vasanti blush for the first time.  It’s highly pigmented and has a gorgeous hint of sheen that really makes your skin glow without looking glittery or too shimmery.  The advantage of having two separate colors is that you can blend them for the perfect custom color.  The color is buildable, so you can have a totally natural look or go for a bigger pop of color if you want.

The lip pencil color I’m using is called Sweet Plum, which is a rich taupe berry tone that I love.  The lip pencil can serve double duty:  you can use it as a liner or a lipstick.  As a liner, it prevents your lipstick from feathering and wearing off, and as a lipstick it provides an amazing, rich, long-lasting color that can be worn alone or underneath another color to customize your look.  It glides smoothly thanks to an infusion of Marula Oil, and it offers a matte look without drying out your lips.  In fact, it even hydrates them!

Finally, my gel lipstick is in the Crazy in Love color, and it’s so bold an fun!  It’s a pretty shade of hot pink (it looks more red in the picture) that adds a bold punch of color to any makeup look.  This lipstick also has a matte finish that really makes me happy.  Many matte lipsticks just don’t do the job, or they don’t look matte enough, or the dry out my lips, but not this one; it has the perfect amount of moisture to keep your lips hydrated without compromising on the richness of the color or the long-lasting staying power.  Also, this lipstick tastes better than any lipstick I’ve ever used, hands down.  It’s fruity!

The lip liner and lipstick colors I’m using are pretty bold, and I realize not everyone wants to go that route, but fret not – Vasanti’s products come in a wide range of colors, from neutrals to brights!  They also have an entire line of cosmetics, so you’ll find something for face, eyes, and lips, and even elixirs and creams that help brighten, invigorate, and rejuvenate your skin.  I hope you’ll give them a try, because I think this will be some of your newest favorite makeup!
