La Femme Chiquita

Seymone, make-up artist extraordinaire, told me about La Femme products a few months back.  At the time, I was looking to purchase some blushes.  She told me the quality and prices were good. La Femme is a discount cosmetic brand that is quite popular among Professional MUs.  Seymone pointed me to MakeupMania.com.

I ordered a few e/s pans ($3), a couple blush pans ($3)  and some sparkle dusts, which are similar to MAC pigments and Ben Nye’s Lumiere Luxe Powders.  The  sparkle dust’s color payoff sans base is intense.  A jar (no sifter) contains 4.5g.

Ordering from MakeupMania.com was a delight.  There was a slight problem with the order and when I called to make changes, the customer service rep  answered on the first ring.  She quickly made the changes and the remaining order was shipped.

Here are swatches of La Femme’s Sparkle Dust I found on YouTube, which contributed to my purchase.
