Korea Love ~ Eye Liner

Where to get this ? 

 The Streets, The Curve

Selling price?

only RM19.90 (cheaper than those selling at drugstores)

Intensity?

Quite ok .. very deep dark black

 

 Eye Liner Type?

Its a Gel Eyeliner that comes in a great bottle packaging and brush applicator is included !

The bottle cap comes with a synthetic eyeliner brush applicator which I find it easy to use.

Its a great 2+1 product which you can carry in your bag ;)

For me this eyeliner is only meant for the upper eyes, to line your lid coz it seems that it doesnt stays on my waterline.. ewww. So I guess, this is a waterproof eyeliner ? Hehe I dont understand korean language.. so I cant read the details on the packaging .. darn!

I lined my eyes using the provided brush applicator, so it was quite difficult to make the line on the inner corner very pointy and sharp.. or maybe I was tooooo lazy to make it perfect and very dark there ? hmm

Bottom line, this product is not very bad at all, coz its very cheap and its suitable for everyday use = Beauty On a Budget ;)

MAC CremeBlend Blush; My Pick

MAC has launched creme blushes for Spring 2011 and they are already in stores worldwide ;) I believe some of  the blushes are repromotes from the LillyLand collections which was released early last year in 2010, and that was  being called BlushCreme. From the reviews, the cream blushes this time are more sheerer and lighter.

The blush display at mac stores

Good news is, these blushes are going to be in their permanent line.. so, no rush ! I managed to get all of the blush swatches and had picked up two of them for myself ;)  I can say that I loove the creme blush coz it gives a natural finish and can be built up whenever I need them to be more intense on the cheeks. It suites dry skin (my skin got dry sometimes), I love applying it just after my foundation, dot small amount on the apples and blend slanted towards the temple (coz ya' know, I have a chubby face, so thats the trick to make your face slimmer) ;p and sets them with loose powder. It gives you a hint of colour just like you pinched your cheeks, Wallah !  As stated by MAC :

" A blush that manages to make a simple blush state-of-the-art. Creamy, easy to blend medium coverage formula imparts a natural finish that's smooth, dewy-fresh, long lasting"

So, these are the swatches for all the CremeBlend Blush

All the swatches taken with flash

All the swatches taken without flash straight from the counter ;p

As seen above, the CremeBlend Blushes are the following:

Posey - Warm Peach

So Sweet So Easy - Bright Yellow Pink

Brit Wit - Dusty Rosey Mauve ( I think this one is more suitable for face contouring )

Lady Blush - Warm Neutral Coral ( A creame version of Instant Chic Blush)

Tea Petal - Mid Tone Reddish Brown ( Also best for face contouring)

Something Special - Light Coral

So, among those six ! I tend to pick up these two first for my collections ...

Left: Posey, Rightt: LadyBlush

And I have no regret buying these two colours coz there are gorgeouss ! ;)

This CremeBlend Blush is best applied using your fingers if you dont have any synthetic brushes .. or I normally use #130 brush (A mini stippling brush) the best for applying creamy/ liquid product either blush, contour creame or foundation. This is one of the best brushes I ever used ! Lovee it ;)

Please excuse my dirty brush ;D

So thats all for now, till then. I will post up my Wonder Woman hauls in my next post. Please keep coming back will ya !

I somehow forgot to capture her 'before' make up picture

Make Up Forever Rock Collection

Hi dear readers. I know that its been quite sometimes since my last update on my recent purchase of Make Up products. Im sorry for not updating and sharing here. There are lots of things that I missed sharing here especially my MAC haul , I was too lazy to blog about that if I dont find it interesting or if it was just a super mini haul !  There are some that I already took the pictures, and unfortunately  havent had the time to talk about 'em. I hope ill be more active to blog about anything, other then just uploading pictures of my recent make up job on other people ;p So for todays update, Im gonna share about my recent MUFE product that Ive been longing to try out that comes in a set which I believe, is a limited edition stuff.

 Make Up Forever Rock Collections

There are several sets to choose from.. all of 'em are eye and face products

 

I chose to have this among other four sets ,which is Best Of Rock For Ever  Kit. I bought this stuff, since a month ago, but only have the time to blog about this today. What ashamed! Im not sure when exactly the stuffs arrived in Malaysia, though I know this is actually one of MUFE 2010 holiday collections. So it was supposed to be in stores  Internationally last December , maybe early this year in Malaysia (ketinggalan keretapi, heh ;p) Since their limited edition stuffs are always consists of regular/permanent line products.. so, I think its not really awkward for me to share with you guys about some of the products in this kit even its too late for some of you to grab this. You can still check 'em out at any of MUFE outlet, you might be the lucky person ! who knows ;)

I bought this along with a MUFE brush cleanser and Ive tried it. I can say that the packaging is better than MAC brush cleanser because it is provided with the spray nozzle/dispenser. Anyhow, I prefer MAC cleanser than this one coz MAC cleanse better and faster, and cheaper too!  Im not sure of any other brands, though.

Other sets in this collections are, the Rock For Ever Star Powder & Aqua Eyes which is a mini set of iridescent powders and Aqua Eyes Eyeliners 

Make Up Forever Aqua Eyes

 If you are an eyeliner freak, this set is the right one for you. I can say that Aqua eyes eyeliner range from MUFE is freaking awesome. Its waterproof and the colours are so intense. 

 Rock Forever Eyeshadow palette

 Just the perfect palette for smokey eyes, consists the must have shadows that you can carry everwhere. All shadows are available in the permanent range. 

Rock For Ever Stars and Diamond, which consists of two new shades, and one full-sized diamond powder

The only set that caught my eyes is the 'Best For Ever' set

.....Because Ive been longing to try the HD powder, Primer, smoky Lash Mascara and the aqua liner pencil ;)

so this is a great opportunity for me since products in sets are much more cheaper than you buy it alone.

HD Powder- white powder that sets invisible/transparently hence suits every skin tone. It can be worn alone or applied over foundations, but only a tiny amount is neccesary as ur face will appear terribly white in pictures as this leaves a white cast on ur face. Its one of MUFE bestsellers products and most used by many celebrity Make Up Artist worldwide (im not sure of malay MUA though ;p ) So far, Ive tried MAC invisible setting powder, and I dont really quite like it.. I havent tried this one yet.. will experiment this, for sure !

HD Primer- Its a microperfecting primer which is more to moisturizer to me. I havent tried this one yet, so cant tell more on this. All I can say is, its so light weight and has a nice light scent. I prefer a thicker texture primer with silky feel, coz I think thats the factor of long lasting effect to foundation and smooth out your complexion even more.

Sens' Eyes - Its a cream cleanser, very effective for removing waterproof products, very gentle and non-irritating to the eyes. Its a fragrance free ! Recommended for those who has very sensitive eyes.

Aqua Eyes-  A Waterproof eyeliner pencil in black. A real black matte eyeliner, glides on smoothly. Im not sure the performance of this on the waterline coz I dont think waterproof pencil works best on the waterline. I prefer a non waterproof formula to be applied on the waterline.

Smoky Lash - Extra Black Mascara to volumize, lengthen and curl the lashes. Honestly for me, its just a regular mascara that you can find it in drugstores ! I admit that its very black, thickening and lengthening but I dont like the fact that it flakes like crazy ! The formula also very thick and clumpy.  I dont like the wand coz its very big, hard to apply.. which tend to smear on the lid when applied, I think its not worth the money if you buy this alone.

Before applying the mascara. My short thin lashes and I dunno why the iris looks quite black here ;p

after applying several coats. see how clumpy it is ? If this happen, try to brush the lashes with a clean mascara wand.

I dont actually bother to buy an expensive mascara coz it has to be discard after approximately three  to four months for hygiene reasons. There are good quality mascara selling at drugstores as well i.e the maybelline magnum volume express. I tend to buy the expensive ones sometimes to experiment the different effect n quality of it so I can get to know several products in stores to study n make comparison. What an expensive habit ! *sigh*

I hate it when the room lighting is yellow, coz you will look all yellow in pictures.. makeup + lighting is very important.. not just make up alone if you want to look great in pictures, natural lighting is the best ! ;)
