A New Experience - Arbonne




Arbonne is a brand that has been popping up a bit lately around beauty blogs. When I was offered the opportunity to trial some products, I couldn't resist. Especially when the words; lipstick, blush and pink were involved! I was sent one blush and two lipsticks which I will be reviewing for you today. 




"Incredibly lightweight, mineral-infused pigment creates a natural-looking blush to highlight the complexion. Suitable for all skin types."  Arbonne





I received the powder blush in the shade Taffeta. It is a gorgeous bright pink. I am so in love with this shade, it just suits my pale skin perfectly. It gives me a natural looking healthy flush to my face. You would think with my blush collection that I would have a similar shade, right? Wrong! 


This blush is incredibly smooth and pigmented yet still easy to blend into the skin. I have found it lasts a full day on me, with minimal fading towards the end of the day. 




This blush retails for $40.00 for 4.5g and can be purchased from here




"Long-wearing, feather-resistant lipstick glides on easily for full coverage, and intensely conditions and hydrates lips." Arbonne




I received two lipsticks in the shades Candy and Coral Reef. Both shades are very pretty but not as vibrant as I expected. Candy is a medium pink with quite a metallic finish. Coral Reef is a quite dark coral that looks quite orangey/brown on my lips. 

To me these lipsticks have the texture of traditional lipsticks. They are creamy and moisturising and last well on the lips. The colour is opaque when applied. 




These lipsticks retail for $36.00 for 2.7g and can be purchased here. Just one point, at 2.7g these lipsticks are very small in weight. Most are at least 3g, usually around 3.5g.




I would not hesitate recommending the blush to you. I am truly in love with the shade. The lipsticks are nice but the shades aren't as vibrant as I am used to. But if you like more toned down shades then these may be for you!

Have you tried Arbonne Cosmetics before? Thoughts?

  1. These products look pretty good, Stephanie, great review!

    I've noticed Arbonne doing the rounds, the lipsticks and blushes really seem the pick of the brand!

    I love the vivacity of the blush and the lipsticks look quite pretty. Do they dry out the lips after a while?

    1. They do become a little drying but not uncomfortably so :)
