Late last year, I got the pleasure to meet some of the wonderful people that work for 3ina as it had launched in Superdrug and during the day, they gave me an introduction to the brand and the makeup. Since then I've purchasing some of their makeup from Superdrug and I thought it was about time to share with you all some of my favourite products so far from the brand.
If you didn't know 3ina is all about approaching makeup in a colourful, playful way to give you premium products for affordable prices. The shades of all their makeup are specially designed to suit every skin tone so you know the product you get is going to work for you. They really do want to put the fun and creativity back into doing your makeup. All of their makeup is vegan, cruelty free and made in Europe.
The 24H Cream Eyeshadow In 306
I'm a big fan of eyeshadow pots so I was a big fan of the 24H Cream eyeshadow pots because they're so simple and easy to use, you can either apply it with your fingers or with a brush and it applies beautifully either way. These eyeshadow pots have a long wearing and waterproof formula so it lasts on your eyelids all day, I have pretty hooded eyes and noticed that it stayed all day without a primer on my eyes or without creasing. 306 is such a beautiful blush pink colour with shimmer. Especially on my low effort makeup days, these cream eyeshadow pots give you that easy, beautiful eye look. 3ina have 17 different colours, including shimmer and matte versions of different colours. During the introduction to 3ina session, they actually showed us how we can layer these cream shadows over the lipsticks to totally elevate your makeup look.
The Highlighter in 512
I tried this highlighter in 512 back in December when I met with 3ina and I had to go out and buy it from Superdrug cause it just looked so beautiful on. I really like this highlighter because it leaves you with the most beautiful glow wherever you apply it and instead of looking like you dunked yourself in glitter, it's a really subtle luminous glow and a little of this highlighter goes a long way.
The 24H Concealer
I am a much bigger fan than of liquid concealer compared to stick or pot concealers probably because they feel lighter in texture. The 24H Concealer in shade 601 is the perfect match for me, it's really brightening for under my eyes and gives me a medium coverage that lasts all day. I do find towards the end of the day it does settle into the fine lines around my eyes and need rubbing back in and powdering. Because I have particularly dry skin, I like that the formula isn't a super drying formula so it doesn't leave me looking all dry and flaky by the end of the day.
The Colour Pen Eyeliner
I usually a brown or dark purple eyeliner girl so I was really pleasantly surprised when they popped the 850 royal blue Colour Pen Eyeliner on me with the 306 cream eyeshadow pot and I couldn't get over how beautiful the combo was and how much I actually liked wearing the two together. I am usually a gel or pencil eyeliner girl because I'm hopeless with my shaky hands so it did take me some getting used to applying. I really liked that these eyeliner pens dry down really quickly and it literally lasted for 11hrs before I had to take my makeup off to go to bed.
The Longwear Lipstick
Of course I couldn't do a blog post about 3ina without featuring one product from their iconic 503 range. The Longwear Lipstick in 503 is the perfect nude for everyone, it's the most beautiful pink that goes with everything. They even made a metallic version of it at Christmas as it's that popular. I used to be a huge fan of liquid lipsticks but the past couple of years, my lips get super dry, thankfully the 3ina longwear liquid lipsticks have a long wearing formula with hyaluronic acid spheres. The formula becomes transfer-proof once it's dried down onto your lips, I found it super lightweight and hydrating when applied to my lips. It lasted all day even through meals and multiple drinks, you just need to make sure that you let it dry properly once applied.
