A Hint Of Cuba : Cheek And Lip Stain From W7

For those who have been following my blog, I had posted my first review of W7 Makeup. I was thoroughly impressed by the quality and ease of application. The foundation still remains amongst my favorites. The cheek blush stick and bronzer and always in my carry bag for quick touch-ups.

This is another one such product. In a 10 ml bottle, it appears more like a traditional but flashy nail polish.
Inside is a thick nail polish brush and a color to make your cheeks blush!

A hint of Cuba is a Coral/Orange tinted color, and although it appears rather bright to look at, on blending it gives a subtle tint of Spring blossoms on your cheeks. For lips I have noticed that the best way is dabbing on lips with the brush and blending with do her tips for an orange Popsicle colored tinted lip color.

It appears to be excessive but it blends to very subtle touch of color. Blending is effortlessly perfected with using your fingertips, no tools needed, Hence perfect addition to your cosmetic bag.

OVERALL: I would compare them to the widely popular Cheek Stains from Benefits Cosmetics but for a fraction of the price. It lasts hours without the need to touch up. They can be purchased online via EBay, Amazon, Directly from the W7 Cosmetics. Check out the other products from the brand, I highly recommend trying them out.

For those who are new to the brand W7 Make Up,

the inspiration of two entrepreneurial young men from West London was created in 2002. Their aim – that every woman should have access to an extensive range of high quality cosmetics at an affordable price.

The company has grown year on year and now W7 boasts a collection of over 500 products including: nail polish, lipsticks and glosses, eyeshadows and more mascaras than you could dream off.

The first thing about the products are the way they are designed. Super simple to use, neat and needs NO beauty tools !!! (YAY!!)

The blush and the bronzer stick comes in a lipstick like form, where it can be twisted at the bottom to being out more product. It’s easy to apply directly to the face and blends very easily with the finger tips. I have noticed that no matter how much you apply, there is no way that it can over-applied.

Swatches are heavily applied and easily blended with fingertips.

The one thing I was most impressed was by the Foundation. Oh wow! It comes in a nozzle tube, you squeeze only as needed. I never need to use a concealer as it’s very high coverage. It forms a perfect dewy skin finish. Again, cannot be over applied and blends with fingertips. The formula has a cooling sensation on skin and lasts really well without the need to powder.
