The Very kind people over at Chalk PR, kindly sent me 3 of their Vegan products to review.
EYES!
Lets start off with the truly Organic Eye Makeup remover.

Girly's...how annoying is removing Makeup at the end of the day...especially if you wear Waterproof Mascara and Eye Liner?! Its one of my worst things to do!!

For a long time now, i have used Eye Make-up wipes or Cotton Wool Pads..but they never seem to do the Job.

This Makeup remover is Free From Talc, Parabens, Bismuth, Oxycloride, Fragrance, Mineral Oils, Fillers and GM ingredients! (thumbs up from me!!!)

This lovely little Product is magnificent!

First of all, it comes in a stunning Black/Gold classy looking Tube. It dispenses the product through a pump (just like Liquid Foundation) so its very quick and easy to use.

I pumped a small amount of the product onto a cotton wool Pad and wiped across my Eyes & Face....thats it! Depending on makeup coverage, you may need an extra pump.

Its not too creamy, but not too Liquidy...just smack bang in the middle. It glides across your Eye, without tugging or rubbing the Skin. It took my Eye Makeup off extremely quickly, and left the area all around my Eye moisturised, not dry at all, and with no reidue or Dark patches!

I found it also has a nice Natural scent to it.

Eye makeup Remover ingredients-

Aloe Vera (Aloe Barbadensis) Leaf Juice*; Glycerin; Cetearyl Olivate; Sorbitan Olivate; Jojoba (Simmondsia Chinensis) Seed Oil*; Coconut (Cocos Nucifera) Oil*; Cetearyl Alcohol; Coco-Glucoside; Aqua; Xanthan Gum; Potassium Sorbate; Natural Vitamin E (Tocopherol); Citric Acid; Calendula Officinalis Flower Infusion*; Matricaria (Chamomilla Recutita) Flower Oil*.

LIPS!

Everyone who knows me, knows how much i love my Lipsticks, Tints and Glosses. The Feel, taste and overall Look.

This little product is a Lip Tint. A Lip tint is lighter than Lipstick (its more like a Chapstick) but leaves a slight colour to your Lips.

''Our certified organic, vegan lip balm tint promises soft, nourished lips with a flush of natural colour. Our amazing certified organic lip balm just got colourful with three gorgeous tints to choose from! INIKA’s Certified Organic ultimate lip tints meet the strict manufacturing guidelines as specified by the organic body, NSF''

The Tint is incredibly Soft and creamy, and is intensely ,moisturising, as well as being very light, with a clear shiny finish! Its a very light dusty Pink. It also has a strong Peppermint flavour & taste, which i personally love.It is also quite cooling, which may be due to the Peppermint.

I'd say its for any age, as its a light colour (not like a Lipstick)

It comes in a small twisty Tube. Its the ideal size to keep in your School Bag or Handbag.

Inika LipTints come in 3 colours-

-Candy (Pink)

-Cherish (Purple)

-Cosmic (Red)

Lip Tint Ingredients-

Helianthus Annus (Sunflower) Seed Oil*, Euphorbia Cerifera (Candelilla) Wax, Rincinus Communis (Castor) Oil*, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil*, Copernicia Cerifera Carnauba Wax*, Theobroma Cacao (Shea) Butter*, Mentha Piperita (Peppermint Oil)*, Natural Flavours, Tocopherol (Vitamin E), Silicon Dioxide, Mica (CI 77019), Iron Oxide (CI 77491, CI77492, CI 77499).

As you can see, there is a whole heap of Moisturing & Natural ingredients in these Lip tints which your Lips will love!

Face

Ahh the Kaboki Brush :D

This Brush is Award winning!!!!

Do you know that Animal Hair can trap dirt & bacteria which when wiped on the face, can cause irritation to the Skin (and we don't want that!!)

I am 100% against Cruelty to Animals, so i feel great using these Brushes, they make me look good whilst no animal has been hurt! :)

I mostly use Powder and Blusher on my Face. This Brush provides an even and airbrushed finish, without leaving lines or brush hairs on my Face.

As the Brush is thick with a thick handle, it makes it easy to apply your Powder/Make-up. The Bristles are baby soft. All of Inika Brushes are made from 100% Sinthetic fibres, and the handle is made from Wood which has been sourced through sustainable forest...which makes these beautiful brushes 100% Vegan and 100% Ethical (thats what we want to hear :) )

An ideal component for your Makeup Bag,dressing table :)
