Review: AVON Revolutionary Mega Effects Mascara, The First Wonderbrush That Changes Mascara History

I’m not sure if any of you are following AVON Malaysia’s Facebook page. If you do then you must have been seeing status update on their latest mascara – the revolutionary Mega Effects Mascara appearing on your timeline. I saw the picture, I told myself I got to have it. But I had a problem. I don’t have the time to go Avon boutique. Besides that I saw Avon fans commenting that the mascara has not arrive the store yet. So while I was busy with what I was doing, I stay updated with the stock arrival by checking up AVON Malaysia’s Facebook page once in a while. On one fine day last week, I returned home to a parcel on my bed. It was the new Mega Effects Mascara! I literally jumped up and down when I saw the mascara.

When I first saw the picture of Mega Effects Mascara, I thought the brush looked gigantic. So I was wondering how big is the whole mascara. The mascara overall is in a reasonable size. Not as huge as I imagined it to be 🙂

Review: Dr. Brandt CC Mat With Signature Shinerase™, A Colour Control Cream That Turn Skin Into A Flawless Work of Art, Even For Oily Skin

CC Cream has been taking the beauty world by storm recently. The migration from BB to CC is intriguing to most beauty enthusiasts as it’s something new, something different and let’s face it…the name “CC” itself is already interesting enough. Let’s hope there’s no DD or EE Cream after this :D. Oh wait, there is a DD Cream now. Anyway, I’m not here to talk about BB, DD or EE Cream. I’m here to share with you a new CC Cream on the CC bandwagon 😉 Dr. Brandt is the most recent brand to jump into the CC Cream bandwagon. Just end of July 2013 they had a press launch for their new CC Mat With Signature Shinerase™.

Dr. Brandt CC Mat is an all-in-one oil-free colour control cream that provides instant mattifying coverage and oil-control while giving the skin an instant makeover, just like a flawless work of art :D. It provides a matte finishing but yet natural looking to even out skin tone and the SPF 30 PA+++ in it is to protect the skin using 100% mineral filters. CC Mat is more suitable and ideally to be used for oily/combination, blemish-prone and sensitive skin types. As you already know, I used to have combination skin until I was diagnosed that I have oily skin. I suppose it’s not necessary that your skin will be drier as you get older because I’m one breathing example of the total opposite 😛

Review: Urban Decay De-Slick Makeup Setting Spray (Oil Control), New Packaging But Same Ol’ Same Ol’

After not quite getting the hype on Urban Decay De Slick Oil-Control Makeup Setting Spray that I bought back in 2011, I was desperate to finish up the huge bottle. It took me a good six months to finish it. When news about Sephora bringing in the “new” Urban Decay De-Slick Makeup Setting Spray in travel size, I just got to have it. I went to Sephora but unfortunately I couldn’t find it. I only spotted this Urban Decay De-Slick Makeup Setting Spray (Oil Control) while on my way out of the store on another separate trip to Sephora.

Word of advice to self – read your own product review before splurging. Yeap. I should read my own review before jumping in Sephora like that lol.

Urban Decay24
Why say so? Well. I thought this is NEW. I thought this is different. It’s actually not :(. It seems like Urban Decay De-Slick Makeup Setting Spray undergo a new packaging from the old one that I bought back in 2011. This new white, minimal, clean bottle is designed by Lauren Beck. However I found out that “new” Urban Decay De-Slick Makeup Setting Spray comes in a few variant – Long Lasting, Oil Control and Cooling & Hydrating. I have oily skin. I bet you are getting bored of me saying that LOL but I still get tons of email asking me what’s my skin type o.O. Anyway I choose “Oil Control” of all three variant. My second option would be Long Lasting. Anyhow, Urban Decay De-Slick Makeup Setting Spray comes in two sizes – 120ml full size and 30ml travel size. I was mainly attracted to the travel size because of the price. I thought I could give this another try for a fraction of the price.

Top 3 Primer That Are Good As Perfector, Just As Good On It’s Own

Sooooo, besides feeling demotivated and falling off the blogging bandwagon a little bit…I’ve been rather adventurous too. The adventurous bug bite me when I was too fed up with having oil secretion on my face before mid of the day. That’s the downside of having oily skin 🙁 I started going through all my base products, digging them out from every corner of my room. I have this crazy idea of using primer over liquid foundation, before finishing powder for a better oil control. However not all makeup base / primer works. It must be something that is able to matte the surface after application. Here is my Top 3 pick of primer that works well as perfector :D. Let’s start from bottom.

Besides that, it also contain lush Avocado and Coconut Oils that instantly boost lip moisture level by more than 100%.

Review: Laneige Snow BB Soothing Cushion SPF 50+ PA+++ (No. 21 Natural Beige), The New Way of Applying BB Cream

My Facebook timelines had been flooded with reviews on Etude House’s version of Laneige Snow BB Soothing Cushion recently and I thought why not I do the other way round? I have taken pictures of this Laneige Snow BB Soothing Cushion since a few months ago but didn’t come around to post up a review. I have no idea why :D. Since I’m on BB Cream and CC Cream chronology lately, I thought it’s a good timing for me to share with you my thought on this product.

How I buy this BB Cushion (that’s how I’m going to call it) is quite spontaneous. It was when Laneige relaunch the product back in May 2013 and there is a Facebook offer for this for RM120 that comes with a refill pack. Coincidently I needed to utilize my Bonuslink points as they are expiring so I redeemed RM100 worth of Parkson cash voucher, drove to Setia Alam mall and bought one!

Laneige 1
In the box there is a white casing, a refill that is pre-attached to the casing and a sealed refill pack. The retail price for all this is RM145. Each BB Cushion contain 15g of product. You get an extra refill so which means for RM145 you get a 30g of product. That equivalent to a normal BB Cream tube 😀
