Studio Gear CC Cream

Got another CC cream review for you today. Yesterday I did a drug store brand and today I decided to do a more pricey brand to see how it would compare. So excited I was able to review this brand as I am just starting to try their products.

Just recently released the Studio Gear CC cream. The collection consists of 3 shades- Linen, Natural and Wheat. The goals of this cream is to brighten and luminate the skin.

The formula is very similar to the L'Oreal BB cream I tried a while ago. While the cream is white it has little pigment beads that will transform it to your shade

Here is how the CC cream first looke when I applied to my hand

After I blended it you can see it adjusted to my skin
tone (right side) and def lightened it as compared to my left side which has no CC cream on it. I honestly feel that this swatch doesn't do justice as it def gives you great coverage.


So compared to the drug store CC cream would I use this one? The answer is...yes. I felt it had better coverage, it moisturized better and I just loved how it adjusted to my skin tone. As compared to a similar texture BB cream would I use this one? Yes again. The BB drug store brand I tried also adjusted to my skin tone but I felt when blended it gave me that cakey look and when I applied foundation it just wasn't right. The only thing I don't care for is the price as it's a little high for me as a student. But, I def do enjoy it and if I can ever buy one I will use it sparingly. 

Price-$34
Where to find- Department stores such as Ulta, Dillards and maybe sephora.

Studio Gear Cosmetics

I have always wanted to try some products from Studio Gear Cosmetics. So when I was got the opportunity to review some of the most popularist products of theirs I jumped on it quick.

Today I will be reviewing an eyeshadow, face primer and mascara!

IMG_3286
The first product is a 3:1 Harmonic Eyeshadow Palette
IMG_3290
Containing a contour, highlight and accent color this 3:1 shadow has colors that when combined will give your a perfect look 

IMG_3295
There is a darker brown for the crease, lighter brown for the base lid and a lighter brown/beige for the under eyebrow area

IMG_3291
The second product I tried was the SPF-20 face primer. This light non greasy primer works to balance and protect the skin from environmental stress while helping to diminish fine lines and wrinkles

IMG_3292
The last product I tried was the Impact Full Pro LTS mascara

IMG_3294
The brush looked nice and fluffy!

I am so sorry that tiny part of my bangs came out but what can you so. to the left contains the Impact full mascara that was simply applied (did NOT curl lashes prior or after application) and my normal lashes. I do have long lashes but they are normally flat and lets just say I need a good volumizing mascara to get the job done.

Here is after application of the mascara on both eyelashes.

Here is my overall look using the 3:1 shadow with the lighter beige underneath the eyebrows, the medium brown on the base and the darker brown on the crease. When used with a primer the shadows lasted well.

Overall, if I had to pick my favorite product it would be the mascara hands down! I didn't think I would get much length let alone volume but my lashes look amazing! The applicator puts mascara on great with little/no clumps! My second favorite was the eyeshadows. I liked how well they go together to create my look and they are pretty pigmented. Well I thought the face primer was good for SPF coverage I am not sure about the diminishing of fine line and wrinkles as I have neither yet so I really can't conclude on if it worked. But I did not break out or anything when using it.

Eyshadow Price- $24
Face Primer-$35
Mascara-$17
