TOO FACED - PAPA DON'T PEACH BLUSH

Too Faced released an entire Sweet Peach range earlier this year, and in doing so re-released a cult favourite: Papa Don't Peach. This blush was an instant must have for me and had me racing down to Mecca with the last of my Christmas and birthday money on the day of it's release. This blush did not disappoint beauties, and has become one of my daily staples since being added to my collection. 



'Reinvented with nourishing peach essence and a punchy, mouthwatering scent' - MECCA



Packaging

Papa Don't Peach comes in a beautiful cardboard box, mimicking those peachy tones and colouring, that the compact slips inside with ease.

The compact itself is metal and contains a mirror within. The only criticism I have about the packaging is that it doesn't have a magnetic closure.



'Inspired by a caramelised peach trifle, this universally flattering, bronzey peach hue adorns cheekc with warm and luminosity for a healthy-looking complexion' - MECCA



Formula & Pigmentation

This blush has a beautiful peachy smell that honestly smells like the real deal. I'm obsessed with it's scent, and I don't even each peaches!

Papa Don't Peach is described as a peachy-bronze. Personally, I'm not too sure about the bronze factor. I find that this blush looks very natural on my super pale skin. The pigmentation is beautiful when applied and can be built up as desired. 



Affordability & Retailers

You can purchase your own Papa Don't Peach Blush from Mecca for $44.00 AUD.


Final Verdict

If you're a pale beauty, then Papa Don't Peach is a must as it creates such a beautiful and natural looking blushed cheeks look. I love this product and I recommend it to anyone who loves peachy tones and peachy scents.

LIME CRIME - SUPERFOILS

In 2016, Lime Crime released a unique eyeshadow dual pan known as Superfoils. Superfoils are a specialised eyeshadow that can either be applied dry, or can be applied wet for a foiled look. Needless to say, they are absolutely beautiful when they become foiled and the main reason why I purchased them. 


'New generation of eyeshadow is here!' - LIME CRIME



Packaging

Superfoils comes in cute round pink packaging, with a matching cardboard box, and feature  a split pan with two shadows and a mirror.

Each shadow can be identified by name on the back of the product and the back of the cardboard box.


'Superfoils can be worn wet or dry - to equally dope results. Wear it dry if you're in the mood to sparkle or activate with water to watch it transform into liquid foil' - LIME CRIME



Formula & Pigmentation

Good and bad news beauties; Lime Crime have officially pulled their Superfoils off of the market. There was a bit of drama and a few issues late last year about the formula and what looked like rust and bubbles forming in the product. Lime Crime have issued a statement denying that there has been any contamination however have pulled the product from the market to re-formulate it. You can read more on Lime Crimes statement here.



Affordability & Retailers

Superfoils are currently not available through any retailer due to being re-formulated.





Final Verdict

At this point in time, my Superfoils have virtually been rendered useless. Although I personally have had no issues with them, I'm still wary that there may be some issues with the formula that may impact on my skin and my overall health. 

If you do have your own Superfoils or are willing to try someone elses, I'd advise getting the product onto your brush before adding your Fix+ spray to the mixture as it is recommended not to add any liquids to the actual pan. By not adding liquid to the pan you may avoid any issues, as I have.
