15 Jan Review, Swatches, Makeup Trends 2018, 2019: OPV Beauty, Brush Set, Yemoja Eyeshadow Palette, Magnetic Palette, Pressed Glitter, Contour Kit, Illuminator, Concealer Palette
OPV Beauty is a London based company. The company was founded on the premise of making the beautiful look that is seen in glamour magazines accessible to everyone. The brand has a global following and a huge social media following also! I follow their Instagram page and am enthralled by their posts and the beautiful makeovers they show. The brand has a complete makeup line and I was lucky enough to try some of their best-selling products! Also note that all of their products are cruelty free!
This set includes 10 different brushes. All of the brushes are made from synthetic hair. They are all designed to apply a different aspect of makeup to your face.

These brushes were so soft and felt great on the face. I loved the shape of the handles and the color of the brushes. They work well to apply makeup. The great thing about the brushes was on the back of the box, each brush has a number to show what it was used for. It was definitely an added plus to have a cheat sheet. This made it so much easier and effortless to beautify myself.
I thought this packaging was absolutely gorgeous! Three beautiful mermaids set on a beautiful aqua blue background. The term Yemoja is spelled in gold lettering. It piqued my interest so I looked up the meaning. The term was from the Yoruba religion and was inspired by a Nigerian Goddess. The Goddess is a protector of women, governs childbirth, love, and healing. The set contains 12 eyeshadows with exotic names. The colors are: Nana, Mawu, Oba, Yewa, Ayao, Eko, Ogun, Oko, Oyo, Osun, and Iwo.
This is another great palette made by OPV. This palette contains 35 colors. Each of the eyeshadows are as gorgeous as the next. They are described as metallic and shimmer and vary in color from lemon to soft brown. I thought these eyeshadows were beautiful a swell. They worked just as nicely as the Yemoja Palette and lasted great throughout the night. So many choices to match every outfit and look that I could ever dream of.
This is just an empty palette that can be used to house 15-17 eyeshadows, blushes, bronzers, or highlighters. A great travel case to take what you need with you. You can switch it out easily as the magnets are easy to move around and take out so it can definitely be customized to your liking. The case is cute. It’s hot pink with white stripes and light blue dots. This belongs in every girl’s arsenal, especially someone who likes to take their makeup on the go or travels a lot! It also helps organize everything better.
All of these glitters come in pans that are designed to be put in the Magnetic Palette. The glitters are handmade, waterproof, can be applied without glue or primer, and are easy to remove. The shades pictured are: Gold Lust, Twinkle, Dust-On, Exotic, Disguise, Ravish, Track, Heartbreaker, Impression, Love-Lock, Desire, Xpoze, Witty, Hot Miss, Dubai, Guppy, Decision, and Charmed.
They are super sparkly and last for hours. I found these glitters very fun! Glitter is definitely in and these are made well. I had no problem applying it and I was happy with the finished look on my eyes. I also like that it added a more glamorous look to my eyes.
This kit offers 15 different shades, as does the next. Eight of the shades in each kit are great for highlighting while 7 of them are great for contouring. This is used to define and sculpt your facial features. I did dabble with this a bit but I have yet to master the technique. The good news is there are videos to watch and after a little practice, I will be more of a pro at this! The colors are great and the cream is easy to apply.
This kit contains 8 shades and the pan sizes are 62mm. They easily blend and go on effortlessly. I found these easier to use than the cream base blends and I really loved the way my skin looked when I used these products to enhance my look.
This palette comes with 15 shades and is cream based. The kit includes 7 highlighter shades, 6 contour shades, and 2 color correctors. This is also used to define and sculpt your facial features. I experimented with this a lot and after practicing, I did see an improvement in my facial features. I really worked to make my nose look a little shorter and I did see a slight difference. Other benefits are it can help make your cheekbones look higher, give the look of a smaller forehead, and a softer jawline.
The Illuminator comes in various shades: Star Light, Sunset Boulevard, Rays of Light, Snow Flakes, Liquid Gold, and Sun Daze. All of the illuminators highlight your skin in a different way. They can be mixed with your moisturizer or foundation or worn alone. You can also wear it on top of your powder. I loved the versatility of this product. I thought it worked well alone and the different shades gave me different looks. Some were more suited for the day while others were more suited for night. It definitely gave my complexion an added glow!
This oil comes in a 30 ml bottle and is a natural moisturizer for the face. It softens the skin while nourishing it at the same time with its magical blend of natural oils combined with Vitamin E and actual 24K gold leaf. The ingredients also include Lemon Grass Oil, Rose Flower Essential Oil, and Jojoba Oil. This was my favorite product out of them all. I loved the fact that the ingredients were all natural and it worked wonders on my skin. It made my skin feel baby smooth and healthier than it had felt in years. I think it gave me a very youthful appearance, even before I applied the makeup!
