Vapour Organic Beauty


After receiving my parcel from I Am Natural Store the other week, and trying the Vapour Perfector, I fell in love with Vapour even more, so in  keeping up with my obsession for beauty products with a creamy texture, I recently purchased a few more products from the line and some samples of their foundations.

I seriously cannot think of a single thing I don't like about this brand...Everything I have tried I have loved, the textures, the scents, the finish, the color, and everything else, i think everybody should own at least one Vapour product!

I purchased, in full size, Halo Body Spotlight in Brilliance, Mesmerize Eye Color Treatment in Flash, and samples of Atmosphere Soft Focus Foundation in 115 and 120 and Luminous Foundation in 115 and 120. 

{115, 115, 120, 120}

I'm not really a foundation fan to be honest, I have never really found one that I like. They either go cakey, don't blend well, sit in lines and crease, or they are just crap! But these...OhEmGee! They are fantastic, both the stick and liquid forms are so easy to apply, sit well, give healthy looking coverage, they last ages on the skin and when on, they don't feel like a foundation at all. I have applied both with and without the Stratus Skin Perfector and they work the same each time so as far as im concerned, I am now a full blown foundation lover. Both 115 and 120 work well for me, but 115 is slightly lighter than my skin tone so I have been using 120, 115 would probably be my summer to winter shade.

I chose the Mesmerize Eye color in Flash because its a nude-ish hue, described as a mushroom taupe, and I love it! It is slightly darker/more brown, than my usual eye shades but it actually works really well with my skin tone, giving a bit of depth to the eye, and it goes with any look. When used with rms lip2cheek in muse, I can achieve a great subtle smokey eye.

Lastly, the Halo Body Spotlight...Wow! I saw this a while ago but was unsure of whether to buy or not because having kids, I don't really go anywhere often enough to need something like this. I decided to buy it anyway as summer is coming up and it's nice to have some highlighted areas when wearing bright fun colors. When first applied it is very full on shimmery, but once blended it gives a beautiful subtle glow which goes with anything.

I seriously love the new packaging they are bringing out, the plastic tubes are nice, but the new metal ones make the products look that much more fancy.

  2. I agree I love their new packaging too, I hope they're changing it for every product. I am just like you, I have always hated foundations! From drug store to high street and even natural ones, there is not one that I am quite pleased with until I have found Vapour. At first, it settles into my laugh lines (which I was not sure why) and after leaving the sample in my cabinet for a long time, I tried it on again and it is just so flawlessssssss

    How are you liking the luminious foundation in comparison to rms beauty un cover up?

    1. I love the rms un cover up and still use it but it does tend to look a little cakey on spots that are even slightly dry, which I never minded before, but after using the Luminous Foundation and seeing how amazing it looks, I think i'll stick to using the un cover up as a concealer.

    1. Thank you. As much as I love both the foundations, i'll definitely be purchasing the stick version first for the ease of use.

  6. Organic Products are better to use as they are eco-friendly and safe. They do not cause any side-effect.

  7. Great color. I hate the types that really don't go on well or are just way to visible on someone. I Must try this because how you explain it sounds great.

    1. Me too, it's amazing how many people wear makeup that doesn't sit well on them, there is definitely a nice option to suit everyone. This is it for me :)

  8. Thanks for sharing your makeup insights. I am always amazed at the transformation that skill, and the right makeup products can make in a person. It's true that beauty comes form the inside though and a genuine smile goes a long way!
