My thoughts
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.

Sigma Beauty Enlight Collection is an L.E and is priced at $165. It can be purchased directly from the website. To purchase products individually from this collection follow the link here. Sigma ships worldwide.

Senna Fall Midnight Wine Collection – Swatches & a look


Yet another beautiful collection for fall this year by Senna. The Midnight Wine Collection features two distinct looks: Ravishing Ruby and Neo Copper.

The Midnight Wine Collection depicts the true essence of fall/winter. I am in love with the deep berry tones of Ravishing Ruby. Overall all the products have good color payoff, texture and decent longevity. My favorites have to be Cream Lipstick in Ruby, Sheer Face Color in Moonberry and Glow Eye Color in Cordovan Glow.

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.

My thoughts
The collection includes an eye shadow palette and three blushes. I love the packaging – I think it’s very elegant and feminine. Kicking off with the palette which contains an array of soft and bright colors; not so wearable but fun to use nonetheless. I am astounded by the pigmentation and texture on these. All shadows are matte, buttery soft and buildable without being chalky. You might notice some fall out though. The color pay off is excellent considering these have a matte feel which typically lacks pigmentation. Overall, this palette is definitely something to get your hands on if you like using colorful and girly shadows.

The blushes come in three shades: Cherry Apple (coral pink), Strawberry Ambrosia (cotton candy pink) and Blackberry Essence (pale purple). All of these have a matte formula and feel silky to the touch. I love how all three of them are so buildable and blend without much effort. The longevity of the blushes is about 6-7 hours after which they start losing some intensity. My favorite is Cherry Apple; I have been wearing it a lot lately. It’s such a beautiful shade and complements my complexion so nicely. I think this color will look good on a wide range of skin tones. Strawberry Ambrosia appears quite light and cool-toned on me. I believe it would suit fairer complexions the most. I am not sure if I will ever be sporting Blackberry Essence; it is just not my color but looks interesting nevertheless.

All in all, Crème De Couture is a fantastic creation by Sigma. The packaging, texture pigmentation, everything is just wonderful!

Sigma Beauty Crème De Couture Collection is priced at $55 and can be purchased online from the website. You can get individual products from the collection as well. Sigma ships worldwide!
