Flirt ! Cosmetics Totally Bronze Style Box : Review & Swatches

The Totally Bronze Style Box is part of Flirt's summer release. I am loving this year's summer releases - its all about keeping it fresh & light ! As much as I love my teal eyeliners and purple shadows - the nude bronze thing is what I do love the most.


All About The Natural Look

The box comes with three eye shadows and one blush/bronzer. All three shadows are super gorgeous ! A bone / off white matte shadow, a pink champagne and a copper brown - nothing you haven't seen before but shades that go together very well. The blush/bronzer is a bronzer cousin of NARS Orgasm - very beautiful for the slightly glowy sun kissed look ! Its a great pick me up for everyday / work friendly makeup and for beginners.


I've worn the shades almost all week given how easy it is to make me look put together with hardly any effort. I went with the pink champagne on my lids, the copper lining my eyes, a bit of brown eyeliner and the bone shade as a highlighter under my brow. The silky light weight texture of the shadows keep them from creasing. Nine straight hours and zero creasing - very impressive !

After nine hours - hardly any creasing.

Makeup Math

At $25 its a kit that has me excited ! Do some makeup math and you'll see that means each product is for $6.25 ! A very good deal for products of excellent quality.

As much as I love each of the products - the bulky packaging wasn't my favorite. It would have been way better to put these in a compact case making it even better for storage / travel. Still trying to figure out how I'm gonna store this . For now it just lays on top of my makeup drawers...

AIMB Exclusive : Lara Dutta's Makeup In The Movie Blue

Makeup Artist Nicoletta Skarlatos was responsible for Lara Dutta's sexy looks in the upcoming Hindi movie Blue. She was kind enough to share the makeup products used on Lara Dutta and a few pictures with us at AIMB ! I am super excited to share it with y'all ! Its not everyday that I get an exclusive lookie into the products used on a Bollywood star !


Lara Dutta's Makeup Breakdown :

Julie Hewett Shimmy in Cleo all over face and on body,
Julie Hewett Shimmy in Cleo, Pinkie, Goldie on eye lids, also Julie Hewett Soiree palette for definition and liner.
I used JHLA mascara, and hints of Goldie and Cleo in the corners of Lara’s eyes.
I used Julie Hewett Bette as her cheek shine and
Julie Hewett Nude Noir lip pencil and lipstick, with a touch of Goldie/Cleo mix in the very middle of her lip.

Cleo is a sultry bronze shade that is just the right product to create a bronzy tanned skin look. It can be used on eyes as an all over color or just on the inner corner of the eye for a super sexy brightening effect. Goldie is shimmery mix of beige and gold shine. It works well on the eyes as a highlighter and on the cheeks as well. Bette is a cheekie that looks great on medium - dark skin tones like Lara herself. Like I mentioned in an earlier post Bette is a complex mix of gold, bronze, pink, peach . Overall a very flattering shade on both lips and cheeks !



Nude Noir Lip Pencil is the best nude lip pencil ever. It is creamy, a great color for medium / dark skin tones. I am usually not a lip liner person but I often use Nude Noir over lipbalm, all over lips for a sexy natural looking pout.



I tried out the look with some of the products I had.
