CANMAKE Just For Me Essence Rouge: A soft pink coral lipstick that doesn’t make me look washed out

Who doesn’t love pretty princessy packaging? I do. Pretty? Sold. Princessy? Sold! sold! Canmake had quite a busy year as they launched a few new products earlier this year. Among the few new products launched in May is this CANMAKE Just For Me Essence Rouge lipstick.

Canmake Just For Me Essence Rouge
After all the oohhss and ahhhss on the pretty packaging, the first thing I was eager to find out is the shade I got. However, knowing Canmake, I knew Canmake shades would be on the girly girl side, which is literally right down my alley so I wasn’t worried that I was sent a nude shade 😛

The Christopher Kane for NARS Summer 2015 Collection: Overview, first impression, swatches and makeup recreation

I’m an avid follower of Youtuber Tati so when she posted up a video on The Christopher Kane for NARS Summer 2015 Collection earlier in May, I said to myself that I got to check it out for the most obvious reason first of all – the bright fuchsia pink print against NARS signature black casing. Unexpectedly, Traclyn extended her preview invite to me and so both of us went to the new NARS store at Mid Valley to check out the new collection 🙂

The Christopher Kane for NARS Collection NEONEUTRAL 2015
First thing first, the limited edition collection named as NEONEUTRAL is not a huge array of product release, which was much to my relieve. Even though so, the collection is complete enough for the whole look, which again much to my relieve and I was pleasantly pleased.

BareMinerals Marvelous Moxie: Get Ready for the most creamy, pigmented and moisturizing lipstick of your life

Towards the end of last year, around the same time as Sephora Christmas collection markdown is when some of the permanent products from a few brands are being heavily discounted. Among the brands are Marc Jacobs, Too Faced, BareMinerals and Stila. I have been swatching BareMinerals Marvelous Moxie lipstick countless of times but I did not ended up buying them because frankly speaking, it was the testers that put me off. It was really gross and dirty that I didn’t swatch all shade at one go and that explains why I kept going back for swatching. Secondly is due to the melted lipstick tester. I have a philosophy on lipstick. If it was melted at the store, that means the lipstick is prone to melt in my room or my bag.

BareMinerals Marvelous Moxie Get Ready
It was during a short trip to Sephora Gurney Paragon in Penang last weekend that had me finally purchasing BareMinerals Marvelous Moxie. Initially I wanted to get something from Marc Jacobs New Nude Sheer Lip Gel but I couldn’t decide on the shade so I wander around the store and stopped by BareMinerals. The testers are surprisingly quite new and I was happy. I decided on a fuchsia pink; Never Say Never. Unfortunately it was out of stock and they only left with two shades; Get Ready and Be Free. Be Free is not an everyday wearable shade because it is a bronzey chocolate while Get Ready is actually my kind of shade all day err day. I really didn’t want anymore ‘everyday shade’. It doesn’t seems like I have a choice so I got Get Ready. The BA even tried persuading me to take two Get Ready so that they can clear it all out fast lol. You know what, I really regretted for not listening to her and get two.

Bourjois Rouge Edition Aqua Laque: It’s really not what you expected

By now you’ve already heard about the hype, knew what was the hype and you might be one of the lucky 200 users to be a part of the hype. That’s right. Bourjois Malaysia did something that blew my mind completely. This well-known French cosmetic brand decided to give away 200 units of the new Bourjois Rouge Edition Aqua Laque to 200 lucky fans who submitted their details through Bourjois Malaysia Facebook page in conjunction with the new release.

It’s not hard to gauge what exactly is Rouge Edition Aqua Laque. It comes in a short dainty tube just like it’s sister, Rouge Edition Velvet, which is my most used lip product at the moment due to it’s long lasting. When ‘laque’ is added to the name, one would automatically expect something that is high shine or glossy. Just take a look at the shiny top cap. Okay, I’m not going to mess up your mind further. This Rouge Edition Aqua Laque is a hybrid lip product of lip gloss and lipstick 🙂

Bourjois Rouge Edition Aqua Laque
The care package that I received contain a set of three carefully selected Rouge Edition Aqua Laque. There is 02 Rosé On The Rocks, which is a rose nude shade, 04 Viens Si Tu Roses, which is a raspberry shade and 06 Feeling Reddy, which is a bright peachy red shade. Overall, I got three different shades from three different shade category with three different intensity. Ain’t that thoughtful? 😉

Make Up - Lips Review: Make Up Smashbox

Smashbox Be Legendary Long-Wear Lip Lacquer: High-lacquered color liquid lipstick that adjust itself to a stain

I’m totally a lipstick girl. I can’t remember when lip lacquer came around and took the beauty world by storm but I do remember I did not jump onto the bandwagon. I was not sure if it’s a lipstick or a lip gloss or is it something else. Lip lacquer can be in so many types and form. Some are a hybrid between a lipstick and a lip gloss, while some are just a liquified lipstick. Smashbox Be Legendary Long-Wear Lip Lacquer is a liquified lipstick + stain that I’m currently using. This product has a long list of claims up their sleeve. Does it live up to all of them? Does it beats every other lip lacquer in the market? Let’s find out 😀

Smashbox Be Legendary Long Wear Lip Lacquer
Before I start, let’s talk about lip gloss. Yes, let’s talk about something that I’m not fond of using. I found out about something interesting while I was doing some research on Smashbox. The great-grandfather of Smashbox founder, Davis Factor is also the beauty legend known as Max Factor. Max Factor was the one who invented lip gloss way back in 1930. It took Smashbox decades later to improvised and introduces a totally new formula. And that is the one that you’re reading now! Isn’t that interesting?
