Review: Profusion Cosmetics





I found this brand of makeup while looking around the beauty section. I decided to try it because the price of the product. For only 4.99 you get 39 eyeshadows and three blushes.

The shadows you get are quite pigmented and you can use the wet or dry. In the swatches above I did not use a primer so when a primer is used the color will be much richer. The blushes on the right are pretty pigmented as well although they come off a little bit chalky so you have to blend them well.


You can buy Profusion products at walgreens if you are interested or on their website.I am in no way sponsored by this company and payed for the products myself.

Brown Dramatic Eye For Fall

This is a great look for fall using the Urban Decays Naked Palette.


Start out with a fresh clean face and then apply a moisturizer and a primer.

Then apply your foundation and concealer and set it with powder. [The flash makes my face look tan in the first picture but its actually pale like this] I used mac's mineralize foundation in NC20, select cover-up in NW20, and mineralize skin finish natural in Medium.

Apply a bronzer in a 3 formation on the contours of the sides of your face. I used N.Y.C smooth skin bronzing face powder.
Then apply a light dusting of a light bronzer to your entire face. I used N.Y.C. smooth skin bronzing face powder.

Apply a peach or bronze blush color to the apples of your cheeks and work it into your hairline. I used mac's melba.

Add a highlight color to your cheek bones, bridge of the nose, chin, above the brows and in the inner corners of the eyes. I used mac's Perfect Topping.
Fill in your brows. I used naked and buck from urban decay.

Apply a light champagne shade onto the lid. I used Macs mineralize skin finish natural in medium for an eyeshadow.

Apply a coppery brown to your crease and outer v. I used smog from Urban Decay.
Blend a darker brown into the outer V. I used Hustle by Urban Decay.
Apply a highlight to your brow bone. I used Virgin by Urban Decay.
Smudge a black shadow across the upper lash line and wing it out a bit. I used creep by Urban Decay.
Smudge a brown shadow on your lower lash line, curl your lashes and apply a black mascara. I used smog by Urban Decay. I used L'Oreal Telescopic Carbon Black Mascara.
Line your lips with a plum lip liner. I used Baby Berry by Jordana.
