Cosmetics Reviews

Cosmetics Reviews

Recently i added a few items to my make-up collection, some of which i would recommend while the others are not too much of my liking.
P.s I know i came at the wrong timing because instead of studying HRM now i'm here reviewing when it's an early morning exam tomorrow. (duh? Hrm is really a boring module i assure you) I wanted to join Jasper's and all badly in Sheila's birthday (HAPPY BELATED BDAE MY DEAR GIRLFRIEND!!) celebration tonight since it's my girlfriend's birthday & they are going to safra kbox ! ( & i have been thirsty for some karaoke session since my last one in cny!) I haven't see them for what seems like eons, especially sheila! since i met the others during CNY but didn't get to play mahjong with them. Blablabla


Life Is Unfair.


Holidays are checked for both RP & NP students, we are the only ones STILL fighting the battle now. so unfairrrrrrrrrrrr. ):

Okay, enough grumbling.. Let's start the ball rolling ..!

Lancome Le Stylo Waterproof auto eyeliner in Noir
Firstly, i think mine has a twister problem because when i twisted a considerable amount of liner out, it couldn't go back. (I just wanted to check the whole length of the eyeliner, quite sua-ku i know )
But apart from that, it smudges a few hours later after use (like in 3 hours) making me look like a horrifying panda thus i would never buy this item again. Perhaps it's just me, my eyelids are more oily thus it smudges as easily? The good part of this item is that it has a smudger which is quite easily (then again, which auto liner doesn't have? ) and the black colour is extremely dark with just two layers of liner. It would be perfect to achieve that Gothic or Smoky eyes look since it smudges on your eyelids.



Dior (Longue Tenue) Moisturizing Concealer
Besides good, this concealer is still good. (No joke :) This is a really long tube and i suppose it can lasts me up to a year or so? It's longer than the SANA concealer i had and comparing the two, i would say SANA concealer is good & value for its price (less than $20) whereas this Dior concealer is way better than that but at the same time, costs much more than that. I like that the concealer is very moisturizing and it is able to cover all your flaws up perfectly and dark eye circles without looking like you have just slapped half your foundation onto your face. I have seen people who look like that and i can only say that they are really good entertainers (even without speaking). That is, provided that you need to know the right way to apply your concealer. Yes and this concealer is true to its name - long wear, i wore it out for one whole day and my dark circles are still safely hidden at the end of the day. Although the price is quite steep, i would say it's a good investment. :) You can safely wear it out without your eyeliner/shadow and still looks as good. I don't like concealer which looks obvious and unnatural.
Bobbi Brown Long Wear Cream Shadow
This is a good invention . I was quite skeptical at first about this product but after trying it, its' just fantastic. It stays on for a long time and it is very easy to apply using both you fingers or your brushes. Mine is in Galaxy and it sparkles when applied. I am very satisfied with this product as it allows adjustment of shade of the eye shadow color - for a natural look, i can use a layer while for a glamorous look, i can use up to 4 layers of application depending on how dramatic i want it to be. The problem of my other eye shadows is difficulty in removing when the colors are too thick & each layer is thicken by a lot (Sometimes i applied too much layers and it's hard to remove hence i have to remove my whole face makeup and start from scratch it's just a waste of time!) My skin tone is dark thus the color looks a little like bronze when i leave it on. I would gladly own one of these cream shadows and dispose of all my other eyeshadow palettes.
Bobbi Brown Long Wear Gel Eyeliner
This product is extremely good!! I use this with cyber colors eyeliner brush & it is easy to apply. In addition, it lasts really long - i got mine in espresso ink which looks like black. It doesn't smudge at all even though it isn't waterproof unlike Lancome's Le Stylo and the whole tub is very small thus it is very handy & convenient :D One cons is that it's a glass tub hence i get very paranoid that it may break due to slight falls/damage.

Talking about cosmetics, i just realized i lost my make up brushes set! So sad so sad so sad! T.T It cost me $40 bucks and i lost it somewhere in my home! ( Trust me, Asking me to find it somewhere amidst my home it's 就像海底捞针一样)


Okay, 'nuff said. I haven't study HRM yet guess tonight will be a sleepless one again. Argh, Good night people who are lucky to be able to sleep tonight. I hope you all get nightmares with Chucky and his wife & maybe his bisexual daughter son (Haha, kidding luh!)




P/s I think my wardrobe is expanding far too quickly... I'm sinful.
