Rouge Bunny Rouge Swatches, Reviews and Other Things!

Rouge Bunny Rouge. I've had some failures with this brand and some successes. Regardless I'm constantly drawn to the brand, the beautiful packaging, the gorgeous descriptions and some fabulous products.

As they do, they periodically produce "looks" itemising all the products used and the latest look is A Cappella. A Cappella is all about the nude and natural face and the products they recommend to create this look are as follows:

FACE

DELIQUESCE Make-up Melt Cleanser

METAMORPHOSES Mattifiying Primer

NAKED DISGUISE Glide Concealer

FINE-SPUN LIGHT Luminous Skin Wand

EYES

EYES WIDE OPEN Brightening Liner Duo

SILK AETHER Long-lasting Cream Eye Shadow ‘Brocade Skipper’

SMITHEREENS OF STARS Eye Gloss ‘Angels Play’

CHEEKS & LIPS

JOYS & DESIRES Decadent Duo ‘Flamenco – Duende’

SWELL BLISS XXX Lip Gloss

Now I don't have all of those products but I was sent a few samples to have a play with.
L-R - Prelude in the Clouds Aqua Primer, Metamorphoses Mattifying Primer, Deliquesce Make-Up Melt Cleanser and Seas of Illumination Highlighting Liquid in Sea of Nectar.

 I was also sent Silk Aether Long-lasting Cream Eye Shadow in Brocade Skipper.

 And here are swatches of the Cream Eye Shadow and the Highlighting Liquid.

 So using these products (although only one of the primers (the Aqua Primer)) and a selection of RBR products I already I own I attempted to create a nude look of my own.

Alas I didn't do a great job, and I took even worse photos (hello double chin!) but still here it is.

I used the Aqua Primer, Clinique Moisture Surge Tinted Moisturiser, on my cheeks and lips I used the RBR Decadent Duo in Tango - Argentino, the Liquid Highlighter on my cheekbones and on my eyes I used the Cream Shadow in Brocade Skipper and added just a touch of Rouge Bunny Rouge Long-lasting eye Shadow in Tantalising Lovebird in the crease and that was it. I must say it does make a very refreshing change to wear such a natural look! You know me and my heavy eye make up!

So what of the products I was sent to try, well, lets start with the cream eyeshadow. Brocade Skipper, it's a champagne kind of a shade and not something I'd wear alone but it works amazingly with other colours or as a base. I wore it all day and it was still firmly in place with no creasing at the end of the day. Fab product, I'm tempted to get the grey one next, Batiste Grayling.

Next, the primers. Well they both work very well but I'm head over heels in love with the Aqua Primer, Prelude in the Clouds. What can I say... well firstly you guys know I've been moaning about light foundations clogging on my nose and making it look a) like it has huge pores and b) very flaky? Well this stuff fixes it. I've now tried all the foundations that haven't worked for me with this primer and the problem is no more.  Not only that but it feels fab on. It is, as the name suggests, water based and is weightless on your skin. Secondly, it's not matte. I do like the Mattifying Primer I was also sent a sample of, but really this is the one, it keeps my make up looking fresh and natural. Lastly my make up stays put. No shiny nose at the end of the day with no foundation left on it. This just keeps it there. I cannot sing the praises of this enough. As such I'm about to order a full size bottle from www.zuneta.com (when I can make up my mind which other bits I want). And that is the downside, this miracle in a bottle is £48. I'll pay it though. Not bothered, I'm so amazed by it!

And lastly the Liquid Highlighter. Well, in the pot this just looks scarily dark for me and very shimmery. I literally dabbed the end of my finger into the pot and and patted along my cheekbone and it just melts in...amazing. I want to order this in another shade but I'm a bit put off by the fact it's a pump bottle and actually I need such a minute amount I think it could be wasteful. Going to mull that purchase over for a while, but the product itself is wonderful.

So before I go, there were a few other things I quickly wanted to mention and might as well do it all in one post!

There's a new Gentle Cleansing Water added to the range "Captured Mist of Serenity", designed for sensitive skin but suitable for all it includes Cornflower water to calm. Would love to try this but I fear I need to get through the other bottles of cleansing waters I have here first.

There are also new Long-lasting Eye Pencils "Feline Gaze" that are waterproof apparently. There are three colours, but the one I have my eye on is the gorgeous sounding Salome. A creamy jet black base with light pure silver and aqua blue reflection. Sounds so good!

Anyway, I won't go on any more, although I easily could. I just need to get on and decide what I want to buy in addition to the Aqua Primer and go shopping!

All products are available from the fabulous www.zuneta.com.
