    #GOSHGoddess Makeup Collection #review

    I love my makeup – in fact I am a bit of a makeup hoarder! I am constantly checking out the newest selections and purchasing them (even if I don’t need them!). When I was chosen to try out GOSH cosmetics through Chick Advisor I was beyond excited. This was my first time trying out the GOSH line and I couldn’t wait to get my #GOSHGoddess on!

    My favourite item in the #GOSHGoddess collection I received was the Lip Lacquer #6. This has to be the brightest lip colour I have ever tried but it looks stunning on. A small amount is needed and it applies extremely well and evenly. It has the most amazing shine and lasts well into the lunch hour (I applied at seven in the morning!).

    The second product was GOSH Mineral Powder 004. I don’t usually use a loose powder so this was also new for me (I almost always purchase a compact powder). The coverage was light but covered very well. I am going through a current breakout (no one warned me about the adult acne breakouts!) and had to use just the mineral powder one day and it helped to soften the redness around my nose perfectly.

    I also tried out the GOSH double precision mascara – one side for the top lashes and the opposite for the lower lashes. This is the perfect solution as the bristle lengths are shorter for the lower lashes which is usually such a problem to deal with if using a larger brush. It allowed for better definition of the lower lashes. The coverage is nice and dark which is my favourite!

    The last product I was able to try was the brow defining gel. This is a product I would have never even thought of buying before but it blew me away. It truly makes the difference when you are aiming for a more polished look. It was easy to apply (just like a mascara wand) and gave greater definition and shape to my eyebrows. I was actually complimented at work where a supervisor thought my makeup was done professionally! It truly made my day!

    Here is my favourite #GOSHGoddess look (sorry for the blurry image my iPhone doesn’t always capture the best images!)

    Are you familiar with the GOSH product line? What is your must have makeup product?

    Disclosure: I received the above mentioned products free of charge. I was not obligated to post about my experiences but wanted to share my love of them with you!
