Chinovi Cosmetics - Haul & Review!

 Ello Lovelies!
If you've seen my latest haul post you would of noticed the goodies i picked up from Chinovi Cosmetics, well I've finally given them a fair trial and thought it was about time i reviewed the beauties. I used a few shades in my last FOTD post which you can see here.

Chinovi Cosmetics as a relatively new indie cosmetics company, and so far I'm thoroughly impressed! The website is really user friendly and easy to navigate and has soooo many shade choices to choose from, it took me a good while to narrow it down to just eight! I opted for the clam shell sample size which are priced at an extremely reasonable $1.25 and hold a very generous amount of product. The only downside is that with me being clumsy its VERY easy to spill, but a minor downside in my opinion.


My package arrived in a little over a week, which is pretty damn good for shipping from the USA and had some of neatest packaging i have ever seen! Everything was neatly packaged in baggies, with an extra baggie sample (which i forgot to photopgraph, doh!) and my order came with a small selection of American sweeties, which was a lovely (yummy) touch! Postage and packaging is also really reasonable at around $5 to the UK.

Now, onto the shadows!
 Party - Speechless - Nude Pearl + - Smoke Out
 For a little over a dollar that is a LOT of product. I can see myself getting a good 10 uses at least out of these before i repurchase full sizes of a few. Yep, I'm already sold on full sizes of Nude Pearl + and Smoke Out. Those two make the easiest day time smokey eye combo, i am slightly obsessed with them! I seriously need more taupey browns in my collection...

Cool Runnings - Dream - Tree - Fun Day
 
I'm such a sucker for greens and i've been lusting over a shimmery lime green and yellow for quite some time now, so Cool Runnings and Fun Day have sated my obsession for now. I won't try and describe colours too much, because frankly, i suck at it, but as usual the pictures don't do these justice. They are gorgeous!
 Cool Runnings - Dream - Tree - Fun Day
They are all so pigmented, soft and blend beautifully, i am REALLY enjoying using them. My go to colours this week have been exactly the same as my last FOTD (lazy, i know) I've been loving it that much! Think i may have to place another cheeky order to try out a few more neutrals!

  5. Beautiful shades. Tree definitely has to be my favourite. Do the full size versions also come in plastic containers? Like yourself, I think that would be an accident waiting to happen for me!

    1. Yeah the clam shells can be a little tricky! But yes, full sizes come in jars with or without sifters :)

  6. I love 'Tree', I wish I had seen this company before prom because that colour is really similar to the colour of my prom dress. These look great and I would really like to try them!

  8. I'm in love with that yellow and those greens! I have been fairly interested in indie makeup brands that are more natural and cruelty free. Have you tried Pumpkin and Poppy, if so, what is your opinion of the brand?
