I also received another parcel from Nabilah of Beaut and The Beast, this time it is my first Ecotools brush! I bought it with her (we do 1 massive order @ group buying, coz a single postal cost is damn expensive) during Ecotools sale at Mysale.my last month. This buffing brush was sold at RM20 each. I'm gonna try it with my face powders soon ^_^ *excited! 

Assalamualaikum and hello ^_^

I just wanna do a simple post on what I got from Alliance Cosmetics Warehouse Sale last week. I first knew about their warehouse sale last year from Silkygirl's facebook page. So, I made up my mind to put it in my calendar, annually. Seriously, who wants to miss this dirt cheap sale of cosmetics, especially women? Since in Malaysia we dont have anything like Black Friday or continuous B1F1 like in the US/UK, the warehouse sales are our only option to splurge and save at the same time ;) 

Last year was my first time going there with my roommates, and it started not so well when the taxi driver did not know how to get to the venue. He asked whether we have GPS or not =_='' of course, we don't have it. He brought us pusing-pusing the whole Glenmarie area till finally we saw the small signboard of that sale and arrived safely. But safely is not so safe to our pockets when he asked for RM50 for the entire sesat journey. Belum belanja lagi dah kena sembelih.

So what I got for myself this time? I managed to spend very wisely since my stash of skincare and cosmetics are still very ample. I only bought :

-Stage Keep It Clean Brush Cleaner 200ml (RM10 each, normal price RM25, bought 2 coz a friend asked me to help her buy 1)

-Revlon Colorstay Ultimate Suede Lipstick in Flash Lights (RM15, normal price RM36)

-Yadah Bubble Deep Cleanser (RM25, normal price RM49.90)

-Avene Thermal Spring Water (RM16, normal price RM39)

That's all for now :) Did anyone of you manage to go to the sale? Share with me what you bought!

Assalamualaikum and hello!

Today I'll be doing a simple review on Etude House Dear Girls Oil Control Pact. I bought this Oil Control Pact from Etude House on its last day of Buy 1 Free 1 Malaysia Day Sale last September. The other item I got for myself was a jar of clay mask, which will be reviewed soon ^_~ 

Being an oily-faced girl is quite a problem to me. Yeah who loves shiny face right? My face gets oily very fast, and it is a necessity for me to bring oil blotting paper wherever I go. So far, I am still unable to find BB creams, CC creams or foundations that REALLY helps in controlling the oil secretion on my face, no matter how they claim that the product has oil control properties =_=''

So buying this Oil Control Pact was kinda suicidal to me at first coz I've never known about its existence, never read any review of it and never seen any of my friends using it. But as I need to buy another 1 item for the B1F1 and I don't need another BB or CC cream, I decided on this one instead. 

The size of this powder is very small and compact. It fits my small palm perfectly. The compact's surface is matte, with Korean language descriptions on its back. 

Inside the case, there's a round mirror, like all normal compact powder, and a sponge is also included so you don't have to find a different sponge. 

The product is in the form of white powder, but upon application it will not make you extra whiter or whatsoever, it is just the same as any translucent powder. It does not contain any shimmery particles too.

The smell of this Oil Control Pact is very sweet. I kinda love the fragrant so much, it makes me happy ^_^ The total product on the pan is 8grams. 

Moving up to its performance, Dear Girls Oil Control Pact really lives up to its claim of controlling oil secretion on face. When I have it on my usual CC cream or foundation, I found my face getting oily 1 to 2 hours later than usual. There is some oiliness sometimes, but I can say, around 70% reduced than the normal oiliness.  

This product does not give me any irritation or breakouts too. The need for reapplying is only when I get sweaty. If I were to stay in air-conditioned atmosphere for the whole day, then I don't find the need to reapply. The only drawback of this product I think so far is the hefty price tag, for a student's budget. 8g worth of product with price of RM50+, I think it is quite expensive. However, the fifty plus price is only at Etude House Outlets. You can get it around RM30+ at online sellers, but then you'll have to be wary of its originality. If you want to buy Etude House products online, try Hnc Unifirst. 

Overall, I give this product 4.5/5 star :)

Assalamualaikum and hello ^_^

Women and lipstick complements each other, and that is why Revlon has never stopped creating new lipstick formulas for us! As a fan of Revlon lip butter and lip balm stain, I was enthralled upon the invitation to discover the new Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick and Lipgloss. The event was held at Marmalade Cafe, Bangsar Village 2 on September 26th. Thanks a lot Sabrina Tajudin for inviting me ;) The event was made success by team MIVVA and Revlon, big clap to them!

There was an introduction to the new Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick formula and shades by Revlon. We bloggers get to experience the new lipsticks and I found that this will be my new favourite! Why? Coz they glides on smoothly like a dream! These new lipsticks are different from other lipsticks because they are not drying, even though multiple layering is needed to get an opaque finish. If you are the person who does not like opaque lipsticks on one swatch, then you must go get yourself this set ^_^ The colors are all gorgeous and suitable for daily wear.

One special thing about this lipstick's packaging is their transparent top. Customers will get to see the exact color of the lipstick before purchasing, thus minimizing the chance of getting the wrong shade in the absence of testers. 

We were then taught by a makeup artist on how to do 3D lips. The trick is to use some powder shadow on the center of our lips. For full tutorial, click here. 

We were also introduced to Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss. With 8 new shades and new formula too, these glosses are not very sticky, much to my delight! They also don't feel heavy at all on the lips. Under the light, I could see that this lip gloss contain fine gold dusts too. It gives a glamorous shiny effect on the wearer's lips. 

Next up was the makeup challenge. There were makeup items prepared for us to use. We bloggers were given several minutes to create the most super lustrous look and stand a chance to win a Revlon hamper. There was suppose to be a lipstick making session at first but due to space constraint, it can't be done there. 

We girls can't get enough of these stuffs, seriously. We kept on applying until there were no more time left for us to touch up, hehe. Sabrina poured all the brushes she bought on the table and it was definitely our saviour! It was funny remembering how the only eye shadow palette was passed from one girl to another, among the four of us XD Actually the workstation became a hot mess during and after our makeover, head over to Sabrina Tajudin's and Sabby Prue's post to see what we've done :p

Marmalade Cafe did prepare a selection of tasty meals for us to munch throughout the session. Sabby mentioned to me that the best meal at Marmalade Cafe would be the Avocado Salad and Spaghetti Aglio Olio. She was right, I can't wait to come back for more!

Besides the lipstick and lip gloss, Revlon also has another two new superstars added to the Absolute Radiance+ range, which are the Revlon Absolute Radiance+ CC Cream and Two Way Powder Foundation. 

Absolute Radiance+ 2-way powder foundation is formulated to even-out skin tone, bringing the skin to a new level of luminosity and a flawless complexion.

On the other hand, Absolute Randiance+ CC Cream has the properties that can hydrate, minimizes pores and color corrects in just 7 days. Its formula is lightweight and this CC cream is available in 3 different shades.

Last but not least, we had a group photo session too with everyone before the workshop ends.

We did not leave empty handed! Each of us were given a goodie bag each which contains a Super Lustrous Lipstick, Lipgloss and a pouch. Thanks a lot MIVVA and Revlon for having us on that day ^_^

Assalamualaikum and Hello ^_^ I'm doing a short update here on my mini haul today. It was a rainy day here in Melaka, but that doesn't stop me from going out and spending, hehe :D Since it was the last day of 56% sale for selected Maybelline products at Guardian, I decided to give it a look on whatever I could get for myself. My friend Mazlina also asked me to buy something for her, since she cannot go out at the moment. So let's see what I bought :)

   3. Maybelline Bold Matte by Color Sensational (Vivid Coral) [RM29.90] - for my friend Mazlina

She is hooked to the color and this is a new shade to her, I believe she will look good in it coz she has a Snow White complexion, this color must suit her well ^_^

 

4. Maybelline Color Sensational (Totally Toffee) [RM13.90]

I have always wanted a nude lipstick but I guess I'm too picky in purchasing. I have been contemplating on buying Totally Toffee since it made its first appearance. Thanks to the 56% discount by Guardian, I happily purchased one and I can't wait to wear it. Hope it will look good on me, I love making positive reviews ^_^

Err well, I'd like to show my very humble makeup for today

I did it in a very express way as my dad wanted to avoid the traffic jam

*Melaka's road are small and damn congested during festive season*

So, if you see any imperfection on what I did, please dont make fun of me XD

I'm a newbie in applying makeups anyway, I always bantai suka hati on how I do it

Hehe~

I really love that Red Porcelain lipstick from Maybelline on my lips ^_^

Eyes : Elianto eye primer, Maybelline Color Tattoo (Bold gold layered with Tangerine Orange), Silkygirl Precision Sharp Eyeliner Pen, Maybelline Rocket Volum'Express Mascara

Face : Revlon Colorstay Whipped Creme Makeup in Golden Beige (320), Elianto Sheer Loose Powder in Natural Beige, Avene Thermal Spring Water

Lips : Maybelline Baby Lips Lip Balm in Anti-Oxidant Berry, Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick in Red Porcelain

Assalamualaikum and hello! I've been longing to do this post ever since I grabbed this awesome lipstick. Special thanks to my beloved girlfriend Nurul Hidayu for being my partner in crime in loving this lipstick to the max ^_^ 

I love red. Especially red lipstick that really screams RED. But so far I only have 2 red lipsticks, the first one being from Silkygirl, and the second one is from Maybelline, which is the star of this post ;)

Red Porcelain is my love at first swatch. I really love how red it is, how creamy the formula is, and how smoothly it glides on. When I applied it on my lips, I experience the same like what happened with the swatch on my hands, and definitely better when I get to examine the finished look. 

Just look at how red the lipstick is. When I saw it I know I can't afford to miss this color. Well, when I worked in Parkson earlier in 2011, I loved British Red from L'oreal but I don't think the color is the same with Red Procelain. They both have their own charm :) Red Porcelain's price is very pocket friendly, and I was even luckier to get it with a special price (read : happy girl) ^_^

The above swatch is obtained just by 1 swipe. I don't need multiple swipes to achieve the perfect red layer, this shows that Red Porcelain is very pigmented and a little definitely goes a long way ^_~ It is moisturizing too as this is one of the lipstick with excellent formula that does not dry my lips, does not accentuate the lines on my lips and it does not settle onto the fine lines on my lips. Moreover, the lipstick leaves my lips with a decent red stain after meals and it doesn't matter if I don't have time to reapply or I forgot to do so. It shines, so I don't need to wear lip gloss on top of it. Well, I'm not a lip gloss person either :p

Red Porcelain is definitely my most favourite red lipstick, and I'm kinda putting it as a benchmark for other red lippies to steal my attention,hehe~ Last but not least, here's some pics of me sporting Red Porcelain. It was captured before I attended my cousin's wedding, and the little girl is my youngest sister Wafa, who always love making cute faces pleading me to let her play with makeups too, hehe~

what do you think of red lippies?

what is the best red lipstick in your stash?

do leave your comments below sweethearts

Assalamualaikum and hello :)

Today is Friday, alhamdulillah the class will finally come to a halt,

but not the activities and the assignments of course.

Yeah I'm a student so my top priority babbles will be about

the piling assignments, the tiring activities and my procrastination problem :p

Anyways, last Monday a parcel arrived at my home in Melaka.

I had just arrived in Shah Alam when mommy called about the parcel,

and I was like "eh? did i buy something when i was asleep?"

Then she told me that the parcel was from Alliance Cosmetics,

and I can't be more accurate than saying SILKYGIRL has sent me another 

pack of happiness ^_^

Anndd, I was right!

I felt very happy on Monday, 

and upon hearing that my parents will send the parcel to me in Shah Alam, 

all my Monday blues went away XD

So, let's see what treasures they sent me this time shall we?

*sorry I'm too tired to edit and watermark the pictures*

Again, I really love SILKYGIRL Malaysia's team for their generosity,

and for their expertise in sending surprises silently

^_^

SILKYGIRL products were the first makeup brand I used in my life

I grew up with them, and I'm still loving them!

I could see their great improvements in delivering products with great quality and still in the 

affordable price range, suitable for students like me and everybody else!

My all-time-favorite for SILKYGIRL products (minus these new ones) would be their :

-Double Intense gel eyeliner

-Magic BB powder (in blue casing)

-CC powder foundation

-Big Eye Mascara (the best mascara!)

-duo eye shadow 24 Purple Storm

-fruity trio lip balm
