First Impression: Black Up Cosmetics at Sephora USA
Hello!
I am SO late to the “game,” but I absolutely LOVE Black UP products! I just found them about 3 mos ago (Nov 2018). I have given away most of my foundations and use only theirs. (i.e. the full coverage cream in 09 for the winter, and 08 for the summer), and the mattyfying liquid foundation (i.e. 09 in the winter, and 10 in late spring and summer). Their tinted moisturizer is the business! I use 03 in the winter, and will use 04 in the warmer months. In MAC I am NC44 or 45 (lancome 510 C) , and in the winter I am MAC NC 50 (lancome 500 W). Their lipsticks, and liquid mattes are so pigmented and creamy not dry, and their eyeshadows are not for the meek at heart! Love this stuff, and get so many compliments on my look. You can go natural, or dramatic with the black, green, or grey lippies. Lastly, the sublime powder is SO special and elegant. I have 03, 04,….. and 05 for the summer and when my foundation is a little bit too warm ( I need a hint of red). A light dusting does the trick! The 2 way cake makes my face look SO smooth, and the color is spot on as if it were made for me! I use 05 in the winter, and 15B for the summer. NOTE: the foundation finder selected 04 in the 2 way cake, but that was a little too light, powdery, and somewhat ashy! I use the contour stick in 02.
So glad you are loving them too! I love their creamy lipstick formula too! And their sublime powders are so beautiful. If you haven’t tried those, I highly suggest you give it a go!
