Review: Wycon Makeup

Recently, on my trip to Italy, I did a little bit of shopping in Blue Garden, the local shopping mall. Whilst wandering round I came across a Wycon Cosmetics shop and since I'm a fan of Kiko, another Italian make-up brand, I was more than a little intrigued. I'm also, as most people are, a lover of a good sale and couldn't resist popping in when I saw the huge sale advertised in the window!
The products I picked up in Wycon were mainly eye products but I bought a lip crayon also.



I am a fairly big fan of an eyeshadow crayon especially when I'm feeling too lazy to properly apply my makeup as they make it look like you've actually put in effort. Hence why when I saw this on sale I was quick to add it to my basket. The first thing I loved about this product was the colour. I got the shade 03 Salmon which is a super pretty, glittery, nude-pink colour and is perfect for a basic nude makeup look. I also love how easily the eyeshadow glides on the eyelid making for easy application. My new lazy day staple eye product.




I think this might be my favourite product of the bunch! I'm a huge fan of a gold eye look so when I saw this I knew I had to buy it.  I purchased the shade Amber 22 which is a deep metallic gold and  I'm in love with the colour of this eye liner! The pigmentation is also amazing and the creamy texture of this liner means it glides onto the eyelid so nicely and it can be blended out to create a smudged effect. I've also used it underneath my eyes and since I've got blue eyes it really made them pop.



I was so impressed with the pigmentation of this when I tried the tester that I bought two. The shades I purchased were 10 Marrone and 21 Marrone Metacllico which are both brown. 10 is a dark matte shade and 21 is a slightly lighter shade with a little bit of a sheen. Both are gorgeous on the eyes and compliment a smoky eye really well. Their slightly creamy texture makes them easy to smudge out too so, again, these are perfect for a smoky look.



The final product I purchased was a lip crayon in the shade 02 Rosa Ciclamino which doesn't seem to actually exist on the website but judging by the images I'd say the shade 05 Cotton Candy was the closest. The colour is a deep rose shade that I found was really buildable. Again, the pigmentation was great, as was the texture. Unlike a lot of matt lipsticks, this didn't leave my lips feeling really dry and the staying power was also really good. One of the best matt lip crayons I've tried.





Overall, I'm super impressed by all the products and the pigmentation of all 6 products was incredible. I loved how affordable it all was too!  I'm in love with this brand and can't wait to buy more of their products - I'm pretty sure they ship to England. Fingers crossed they do!
