Another lovely collection from Natasha Denona! These are so easy to use and you surely make you fall in love! The Mini Love Story Collection.
First up is the Natasha Denona Love Cheek Duo.
Brand’s description: Inspired by the midi-sized LOVE STORY Collection, ND has paired her ever-coveted Cream Blush from the Diamond & Blush Glow Palette in shade Darya, with a NEW! Shade of her iconic Highlighting Impact Powder – a warm, pinkish Duo Chrome that shifts from pink to champagne.
The cover of the compact has a surface with cute floating glitter.
CREAM BLUSH- Pink Coral
A rich & creamy texture that gives cheeks a flush of color, formulated with a powder-soft finish for longwearing, natural luminosity.
CREAM BLUSH- Rich and creamy compact formula that melts into skin & blends evenly and seamlessly for immediate homogeneity, while delivering high color payoff.
Featherweight, buildable, long-lasting formula with a brightly pigmented, yet “silky skin” finish. No oil sensation & ultra-light ester emollient for an extremely smooth & velvety texture. Compact texture blends on with a melting touch, transforming into a translucent and weightless film.
GLOW IMPACT POWDER- Pink & Golden Champagne Duo Chrome
A gel-powder texture that fuses to skin for a polished, radiant, high shine.
GLOW IMPACT POWDER - Purely luminous veil wears like silk, with a lightweight & seamless application due to its advanced smoothing technology.
Bright, gleaming, mica-based pearl pigments for a satin, silky look and feel. Pearlescent, glistening pigments guarantee true-to-life color and radiance on skin. Color fuses to the skin for an even, weightless & porcelain finish
Both the blush and the glow powder compliment each other so well. Just a little dab of the blush and finish with the glow powder. They are non-greasy and feel very comfortable on my skin.

Lastly, #36NP Amorosa I Need A Nude Lipstick– Medium warm mauve with a neutral pink undertone
Brand’s description: Treat & smooth your lips with the latest addition to ND’s 20 classic I Need A Nude Lipstick shades. Introducing, Amorosa, a perfect natural mauve lipstick shade to fit all skin tones. Coveted by fans across the globe, Natasha’s iconic nude lip looks come to life with a collection of universally flattering shades. Natasha was compelled to create this gorgeous collection after spending years mixing nude lipsticks together to achieve her vision; a nude that would flatter everyone and complement her signature smokey eyes.
A luxurious texture with a lightweight creamy formula that will give you that nude lip you’ve been dreaming of while simultaneously hydrating and repairing your lips. Hydrating formula envelops lips in a luminous, “your lips, but better” finish.
OK the formula is a gorgeous cream formula, too bad its a tad too pale for my skin. For me, this needed to be paired with a smokey eye.
