Sigma Standout Eyes Gel Liner Collection – Review & swatches

I prefer using gel liners as opposed to liquid or pencil ones. Gel liners, in general, apply smoothly and appear intense. With the right brush, you can apply like a pro with no trouble at all.

Standout Eyes Gel Liner Collection
The Sigma Beauty Standout Eyes Gel Liner Collection features an array of long-wearing, opaque and saturated colors. All gel liners are versatile, yet unique and unexpected with intense pigmentation and a smooth, fluid-like finish. Paraben-free.

Sigma Standout Eyes Gel Liner Collection Swatches (L-R): Unexpected, Liberally Toasted & Stunningly Ladylike

Sigma Standout Eyes Gel Liner Collection Swatches (L-R): Royally Striking, Standout Peacock & Wicked

My thoughts
The Standout Eyes Gel Liner Collection includes six shades: Unexpected, described as a neutral stony grey, Liberally Toasted, described as toasty warm brown, Stunningly Ladylike which is described as a dark brown-black, Royally Striking which is bright purple, Standout Peacock which is a deep indigo blue and Wicked which is a jet-black shade. The collection also contains two angled eye liners brushes.

The gel liners are creamy and glide smoothly. The brushes that come with the collection make application a piece of cake, believe me. I don’t think they’re very pigmented; you need two swipes to achieve absolute intensity. Do not build more than twice. I am saying this because it has tendency to flake and that looks pretty ugly in my opinion. Once it is set, it doesn’t budge and stay put for hours though on a hot and humid day, it might transfer onto the crease so watch out for that. Standout Peacock is my favorite from the collection. Pigmentation wise, Wicked is my second favorite.

Overall, I like the collection for its nice colors. Formula wise, it didn’t tickle me much to be honest. Maybe I was expecting more.

A single Sigma Standout Eyes Gel Liner is priced at $14 and you can purchase it from the website. If you live in Pakistan, you can order through Rouge.

This year we saw some amazing products one after the other by Sigma and this collection is no exception. The eye shadow palette is my favorite. It has got matte and shimmer shadows with good pigmentation and soft texture – very pleased with the matte shades. Though there is some fallout in the pan but that doesn’t break my heart.

The blushes too are pigmented, soft and blendable. I love Serene. It looks gorgeous on my skin. Every single thing from the collection has got incredible color pay off so no complaints. The brushes that come with the collection are great – they’re soft, dense and the handles are perfect.

All in all, the Enlight Collection is a winner in my books.

Senna Summer Glow Collection Bronzelite – Review & swatches

Today, I am going to talk about the new Summer Glow Collection by Senna Cosmetics.

Brilliant Bronze
This featherweight baked mineral powder kisses skin with the sheerest touch of radiant warmth and illumination. The shimmering bronzer can be worn very sheer or layered on for a deep sunny tan while remaining totally natural looking. The brightening highlighter makes skin look luminous. This delicate mineral veil contains specially cultivated fresh water pearls with amino acids and proteins to hydrate and nourish skin, keeping it luxuriously soft and smooth. Each bronzer pattern is hand drawn and baked on terracotta for a rich one-of-a-kind beauty. Free of oils, talc, fragrance and parabens.

Powder Point 33 Brush
Luxe full, soft tip brush sweeps face powders and bronzers smoothly over the face, reaching every spot. Natural hair.

My thoughts
As described on the website, the Brilliant Bronze Baked Mineral Bronzer & Higlighter in dawn is a light bronze with a sea shell pink highlighter. It looks absolutely natural-looking on my skin which is good. It has a soft and silky texture that applies with ease. My only gripe – it’s too sparkly for my liking. Since the texture is soft, there is product fallout in the pan too.

The Powder Point 33 has become one of my favorites. It’s such a wonderful brush to have. I love how it’s shaped; the pointy shape really helps with precise application of color. The bristles are also soft and the handle provides a firm grip.

Cream Lipstick
This creamy cushion lipstick formula is velvety smooth, hydrating and comfortable with maximum color impact and long lasting wear. Hyaluronic Acid filling spheres, Vitamin E, Shea Butter and Jojoba Oil hydrate, condition and protect.

Lip Lacquer
This moist and smooth vanilla flavored lipgloss formula applies high shine and color. Shea Butter, Grape Seed Oil, Jojoba Oil and Mango Seed Butter infused with mega vitamins helps to moisturize and protect lips.

Senna Summer Glow Collection Lip Lacquer in Sunstone  - Swatch

My thoughts
Down To Earth is described as warm golden chocolate and Midas as gold metallic glow. I really like the formula on these. Down To Earth is packed with pigment however Midas seems to lack that rich color that I was hoping for. I think it’s meant to be applied on top of a lip color to highlight and not just alone.

The texture is creamy, feels comfortable and glides smoothly over my lips without accentuating my lip lines. I feel that it also hydrates my lips a little. In addition to that, I have noticed that the color lasts long on me which is amazing.

The lip lacquer in Sunstone is described as sparkling golden amber. I admire the fact that it stays long on my lips though I do not like how it feels slightly sticky when applied.

Glow Eye Color
Beautiful light reflective finish gives buildable coverage that can be soft on the eyes or richly intense. The glossy surface and depth of color and dimension make these colors wearable. 

Ultra Last Eyeliner
This long lasting eyelining pencil delivers a soft and smooth application with high pigment payoff. Waterproof and smudgeproof for up to 14 hours of wear.

Senna Summer Glow Collection Glow Eye Color: Rose Gold

My thoughts
Rose Gold is a golden pink shimmer eye shadow. It’s a beautiful and wearable color that can be worn daily. The product has a soft texture that is easy to blend. The shimmer is tiny compared to the baked powder bronzer.

The Ultra Last Eyeliner is truly long lasting; I love it! For starters, it’s creamy and applies easily. It doesn’t smudge or fade and stay puts through the day. I’ve literally ditched my black eyeliner because of this; great stuff!

Senna Summer Glow Collection Bronzelite can be purchased online from the website. Follow Senna on Facebook to stay updated.

My thoughts
I love how Sigma has released individual pencils and kits and how they’ve labeled warm, neutral and cool colors. Each kit comes with an exclusive brush. I’ve got E20 Short Shader that came with the warm kit. It’s perfect for blending out the shade on your lids for a sexy smoldering effect.

The pencils are soft, creamy and go on smooth without tugging or skipping. Since the tip is soft, I suggest keeping a light hand during application so it doesn’t break. Also, you need to sharpen every time for a thin stroke.

All eye liners are metallic except 'Boost' – a rich matte black. The metallic shades aren’t as pigmented as I had hoped for however, I discovered that these are quite buildable actually. After the first layer sets, I simply put on a second one to make it appear more intense. The second stroke applies just as effortlessly as the first so no complaints. I like the fact that they apply wonderfully over an eyeshadow. You could also wear these alone if you desire.

Once it's set, the color doesn’t smear and lasts all day which is brilliant however, if you rub your eyes too hard, you might notice some loss of color. I tried on my water line where it fades after a couple of hours which isn't so bad. My favorite ones are Boost, Electrify, Flirt, Declare and Enlighten.

Overall, I really like these pencils! Colored eye liners are fun so I know I'd be reaching for them a lot this season.

Sigma Beauty Extended Wear Eye Liner costs $9 each. A kit is priced at $33 and can be purchased online through Sigma's website here. Sigma ships worldwide. You can get 10% off your purchase by using the code given on the sidebar.
