I remember seeing the brand ‘Focallure‘ pop up on my Instagram feed a while ago and thought that their palettes looked gorgeous and I was really intrigued however as it goes, time got the better of me and I didn’t end up purchasing anything. A couple of months ago, one of the lovely ladies from their marketing team reached out to me and asked if I’d like to try out some of their products and of course I jumped at the chance as they really do have some gorgeous makeup products in their range. After having a look on their site, I could see that the price range is very affordable which I love – but are they worth the hype? Let’s find out..
First up is the Diamond Glow highlighter in the shade ‘Golden Crystal’, which I need to address before we move on to the actual formula and application – Yes, you’re not hallucinating, there is a typo on mine ‘Golw’ rather than ‘Glow’ which I found incredibly amusing! I understand this was most likely a factory issue/mistake but I don’t actually mind too much as it’s definitely unique! Just something to consider on quality control here.
This highlighter sells for £7.73 at the time of writing this blogpost on the site here, which I think is a really good price. The packaging feels very standard, but simple and it works – the highlighter pan itself is so pretty and has an embossed diamond in the middle which is so cute. The embossed diamond is a slightly more pink colour, when swirled together it creates a really beautiful champagne highlight shade, perfect for fairer skin tones – it also feels really silky and isn’t glittery at all.
Brows, brows, brows – gosh they’re just so important aren’t they. Initially, when I saw this ‘Brow Gel Cream’ in the pan, I was a little apprehensive as it looked very dark. I received the shade ‘chocolate’ which they must’ve colour matched me from my Instagram photos. The brow gel cream sells for £3.47 at the time of writing this blogpost from the site here, which is such an insanely good price!
On application, I was pleasantly surprised that the shade is actually perfect for me and just looks darker in the pot – my guess is due to the pigment being so intense. It doesn’t feel too waxy and is easy to use – definitely a thumbs up from me on this one and I shall be reaching for this from day to day.
