i stop shopping for a while......

Honestly, one thing i really missed since a few mths back..

that will definately be the leisure time i had to seat all infront of my dear computer..
and being able to select, unselect and select again..
all the so many buys i wanted to have..

but since things change,
i last the luxury of doing so..
all because of one main factor..

NOT RECESSION..

but something worst..

i've been so busy that i dont even have time to be online..

but finally today, all thanks to being played out..
i had 1/2 a day free..

and thanks to half of today..

i went to instant shopping..

in just mere 1.5hr..


FIRST, i headed to PAUL n JOE warehouse sale..

this my first time shopping for paul n joe,
i always loved it packaging..

however, as i'm a lover for online shoppin,
its close to zero percentage that i bought makeup items from store..

this time rd at the sale, i just picked up a few items..
mostly are blushes.. and only one foundation (natural, nude)
thou i was there early, many items are OOS..

very quickly:(
i wanted one more item at first..
cos its really cheap..

imagine the blusher only at $10 bucks..

next i headed to watsons in taka..
they had some xmas promo going on for the store..

n i just head down town just to get the famous...




NOPE NOT MM MASCARA
(i've bought a few tubes previously already)



but GRANSENBON....

apparently, its quite popular in japan..
n it blusher shade is pretty,

some shimmer in the pink:P
my love.. SHIMMERRRRING SHIMMER>...





that's my pretty buy today..

so many blusher.. i dont realyl know how to use them all
i wanted to get more items.. but somehow,
as i dun like to get stuff from store,

i manage to stop the crave..
cant wait to shop w EDM (in dec) n Coastal scents (tonight) soon...





LOVES:P

reviews for my eyeliner

Item: ULTA professional eyeliner..
Col: Black
Texture: Smooth
Power stay: very good. it stays on my lid all the way till i remove my make up
Application: very easy
Outlook: Pen form
Size: slim and easy to bring around
my say: 9/10


i like this automatic eyeliner..
i used it for a few days.
only on my lower lid thou.


its great.
no smudge for me at the eye of the day..
very easy application, very handy to be brought out
i'll prob try to use it for my upper lid soon too

currently on my upper eye lid i'm using kate gel eyeliner..

Item: Kate Gel eyeliner..
Col: Black
Texture: Smooth
Power stay: it do go off my lid at e end of the day, however i feel that's cos i dun
really know how to use it yet
Application: need to have more practice
Outlook: Gel container using a brsh to apply
Size: small but not very handy, i reckon easier to be placed at home
my say: 7/10


haven really master the technique for gel yet.
as application being the practice makes perfect route i guess:P

however.. its really pretty and gets easier to apply as days passes..

i am shocked..

i just spray all my brush clean them.. seems clean enough:P
- mineral blush from neutrogena
not tried yet. but the color looks pretty
- HIP eyeliner cream

but maybe wait till my other loots arrive..haha

all adds up to a box of 10 items..

i didnt hear the bell ring.
but thankfully my sister did:P
she thought i was ready to open a cosmetic shop..
haha i kept quiet..
cos wait till she sees my stuff from the other brands.

can't WAIT..

i had a livechat session with them on the web on EDM.
its like msn.. so fun.
she told me it has been shipped on 18august..

never came across this situation for online shopping.
maybe has been really lucky all this while
cos purchases always comes quick..

my first buy is here...

my first buy of this season is here..
been waiting and waiting
and it seems like a never ending story..

but nevertheless,
it arrived..
to my surprise..

cos i expected EDM to arrive FIRST.

my BB exploration continues

Item: Dr. Jart Silver
Shade:just alil light
Texture: smooth, but alil mroe difficult to apply as it's texture feels thicker
Smell: not too much, pleasant
Finishing: alil to fair. but not very much. covers alright..
Oil Control: not too fantastic as others.
my views: i like this as its feel moisturizing. its not like dry and also no where near heavy.
i believe i will continue using it..:P alternating with all my other brands


Item: Dr. Jart Black
Shade: nice and just right for me
Texture: it feels thicker just like silver label, as compared to watery thou, but generally easy to apply
Smell: pleasant
Finishing: its one of my fav now after missha watery and skinfood, but difficult to judge as i didnt use it long enough yet..
Oil Control: not too bad, but still not like skinfood.
my views: i will use this too.. cos its feels good, at end day thou my powder on the face is gone.. but still, in my opinion, it just feels like i have better complexion wthout make up on. that the magical part for a good BB that's suitable?

at least for me. what i expect from the product that i will cont' using..

it's a PUFF.. my puff story

.. what i use for minerals?

my foundation..LP.. it covers

BB Cream forever.. for now

..before my pretty buys arrive..


i am not experts of BB cream,
just some personal experience on my own face..
i just need to say. "IT WORKS FOR ME, IT MIGHT NOT FOR YOU"\

so take into consideration that
its all based on the products on my face and not others or yours,
so in another word,
i dun hold any responsibilities,
cos some products works for one might not on another :)
i admit i might get alil bias with the products,
but thats caused every individual will have different favourites.

okie for now...

Item: Skinfood BB Cream #2
Shade: not too dark, neither too light..
coverage: quite alright.
Texture: smooth
Smell: smeels like flower to me.
Finishing: might be dry some days
Oil Control: FANTASTICS
my views: best oil control product. i love it..

Item: Missha Watery SPF 27
Shade: not too light
Texture: smooth, very
Smell: nice. i like this
Finishing: very dewy looking, smooth and feel flawless, very easy to apply
Oil Control: not as good as skinfood, but i reckon if were to use together will be great
my views: my PERSONAL fav. now. i like the finishing, the smell and the sensation on the face after application.

Item: BRTC perfect recovery
Shade: alil' too white
Texture: smooth but watery is better
Smell: nil to me
Finishing: coverage not too bad, but its too white on my skin
Oil Control: above avg.
my views: i left this aside now, cos of my other fav. but as its a derma prod, i didnt have outbreak which is good enough for me..

Item: Coogi
Shade: fairer than skinfood. darker than BRTC
Texture: smooth, but watery has easier application
Smell: not too much, i dun really smell it much.
Finishing: coverage not that fantastic, but do cover some, after a layer of mineral its do cover
Oil Control: average
my views: it is a good alternative as its a cheap range. i will use it when my skinfood or missha runs out:P

for the EYES.

for eyes to be pretty

all will need a good eyeliner

till now i'm still in search for one.
recently read up some reviews, heard this is good
so i tried to get my hands on this item.

KATE Gel Eyeliner...


haven used it yet..
but i will.
soon..

than i will know if its good..
cant wait to try.
but being lazy..

cheers.

Make Up Craze..

if i were to leave home on normal basis,
i enjoy the simple plain jane look..
its easy and fastest.
most importantly VERY CONVENIENT..

on top of the usual minerals i use,
i just got my ass to purchase some stuff online again
the famous yet so cheap E.L.F

i have yet to receive the products yet. still on its way shipping over,
but i did purchase it previously.
i like the lippy stuff i got.
-Therapeutic Conditioning Balm
-Luscious Liquid Lipstick

heard good reviews on the eyes too
so this time round i got the compact and also
-Compact Eyes
-Duo Eye Shadow Cream
-Shimmering Facial Whip

yet to try them, cant wait.
i'm not really a eye shadow person.
but still learning..
some pp can really make it so pretty..
hope to master it soon:P

however, there are items i dont really think it worth my money..
the overall facial brush is over rated in my opinion.
the mascara i received was dried up
the eyeliner pencil doesnt allow me to draw too well too
i'm personally sensitive to the face stuff
the blusher has some shiny effect which i personally dun like..
my friend told me the eye curler wasnt good too..

so all i ordered was abundance of eyeshadow, lippy stuff and also the tools like eyeshadow which had really good reviews..

Another online shop that i got my ass down to purchase was from ulta.com
its a store something like drugstore.com with many many labels
EG: Bare Escentuals, Smashbox, Neutrogena, Maybelline

heard lots of reviews on maybelline and neutrogena stuff..
so i got down to get its Mineral Power, eye primer..
oh it do have home brands from ulta itself..
heard about it eyeliner..
Loreal HIP gel eyeliner, try youtube it, and you will see pp telling ya it comparable to mac? or maybe a cheaper alternative..


hope and pray my product comes real soon
at my door step..

still than,
cheers

more craze to go.

my ultimate 2nd craze on the line will be without fail mineral make up..

started trying with introduction from a friend.
so the first brand used was Bare Escentuals..
overall experience,
LOVED IT.

however, as all will know it is of a lil' more of a pricey side..
but things to be recommended.
[favourites in order]
1] kabuki brush
it still my no. 1 brush after using other brands, it picks up really well the powder.
2] concealer brush
very smooth, and provide great cover after only one application.
3] mineral veil
perfect finishing to provide a clear and smooth pleasant feel
4] overall face color
use to shade my sides of the face only.. very durable, till now i still have plenty of supply cos of it generous container provided in the package after one year of usuage.
5] foundation with spf15
smooth and best with spf.

i got it on a package for beginners i guess at usd 60..
its still selling,
my package came with loads of stuff, so i felt honestly it worth the money to purchase..
package inclusive of
1] kabuki brush
2] concealer brush
3] mineral veil
4] overall face color
5] foundation with spf15 * 2 shades
6] a bottle of Rev-er?
7] concealer
8] DVD, really good for beginner to learn its application method.


My second attempt in Mineral makeup
seeking alternative to cheaper range as BE was ex to purchase individually,
n i wont need all the item in the package..
so surfing the net i found this lil brand called INNER BEAUTY.

made purchase twice from this store,
it sells both on ebay and also from its website itselves
the owner is nice, and reply to any queries promptly..

i gotten many items there after having so much faith in minerals
1] kabuki brush
2] baby kabuki brush
3] eye shadow brush
4] concealer brush
5] eye shadows
6] foundation in medium and light
7] finishing veil
8] blushers
basically, i gotten alot over the 2 purchased made, some in kit form, others in refills.
all items are packed and shipped to my place in a pretty manner and i'm happy to receive them.

My third mineral brand will be my current favourite,
EVERYDAY MINERALS.
with introduction from another friend on cheap and its review,
before finishing the previous, i went infront of the ever so useful internet
and check up on the item..
items in comparison, SO CHEAP..

how can any female resist?

my 1st order about 6mths ago i ordered the 6 piece kit,
cos than that was the biggest kit available..

had chosen foundation, mineral veil of of different shade to test and share with my family,
also ordered its sample custom kit together since it was free item..
shipping and item altogether was affordable and reasonable in my opinion..

i really love this foundation cover, it covers my freckles very very well only after one application, and it felt very light, not over powering, i was so surprise for the effect.
coverage is really good
however, the only problem will be the abundance spoilt of choices that is up for selections.
i spent so long deciding.
but having it custom kit you can already chose 3 foundation shade.
so no fret..

recently i made another order, the 12 piece,
still on the way to ship and arrive at my place.
should be next week
this time round i have a rough idea of the color i will be using,
so its easier to place orders,
also they have new items, i really excited to receive my orders..

in addition to stuff i had,
i gotten its new items i have never tried.
like the pressed powder, brushes and also the puff jar.
afterall i only do have one face.
no need for so many foundations and veil,
so.. of cos face accessories comes in..

thou i'm happy with my lastest buy yet to be arrived..
reading up and watching videos are bad influence..
it now tempting me to try a new brand..
silk naturals

heard of it? how it it??
maybe after arrival of my new batch of EVM than i'll place order for that..

for now,
cheers...

Oriental Princess Eye Curler

THE MUST HAVE..............................

ORIENTAL PRINCESS PROFESSIONAL EYE CURLER

never heard of this brand?
its okay.
never too late to join this affordable yet fabulous product.

my personal experience to allow comparison.
just after one clip.

amazing right??

if any wants to try
at a affordable price.

cheers..
