Review & FOTD with Mia Mariu Cosmetics - My Highest Self

Review & FOTD with Mia Mariu Cosmetics

This past week, I have been playing around with Mia Mariu Cosmetics! I was pleasantly surprised with the items I received and thought they worked well together for a Face of the Day (FOTD) post.

First up is the Mineral Eye Shadow Duo in Luna de Miel ($18):

This duo has two lovely colors that work beautifully together.  If using an eyeshadow brush, use a light hand or you will find a lot of fallout.  When using a light hand, all was well in applying/blending.  I wore these with a primer and experienced no fading or creasing during a 10 hour day.

Next is the Mineral Blush in Flor de Canela ($17):

This blush blends into a totally natural flush, love it!

Hydrating Stick Gloss in Tango and Encanto ($15):

I cannot say enough good things about both lipsticks, gorgeous pigmentation, a glossy look, light-as-air and creamy on the lips.  These will fade some when drinking/eating, just reapply and go!

Luminous Lip Gloss in Romance and Dulzura $13); Magic Satin in Magic Satin II

The lipglosses are another favorite of mine!  Both colors have the perfect amount of shimmer and touch of color to be added to all of my favorite lip colors.  The Magic Satin is a cream highlighter that seemed to be a bit too light even for my skin tone.  I don’t know that I will get a lot of use out of this one.
