Dior Make Up - Lips Review: Make Up

Review: Nude Lips with Dior Addict #333 Nude? Not So Fast. It’s Not As Nude As The Name Suggest

That’s right. Don’t get fool with lipstick bearing the shade name “Nude” because you’ll never know what you’ll about to discover. I’m fond with Dior Addict Extreme lipstick. So when I won a Dior Addict lipstick from Malaysian Women’s Weekly readership survey, I was thrilled!

The lipstick are given by random. There is no way I can choose the shade I want. I remember crossing my fingers that I’ll get a nude color. That’s because I already own a fuchsia pink and red lipstick from Dior Addict Extreme range. Nude shade is the only one that I’m eyeing from Dior. And what do you know? My wish came true. I was given a Dior Addict #333 Nude.

After a quick search online I find that the difference between Dior Addict with Dior Addict Extreme is the colour intensity. I suppose Extreme are more intensive than the normal Dior Addict range?

Dior maintain the same lipstick case design for this although I think that it’s kinda bulky but classy. Unlike Dior Addict Extreme, the lipstick case for Dior Addict is clear and reflects some colorful reflection at certain angle. Nice one. Finger print on the casing are not visible at all too.

On sturdiness wise it’s really well-made. The clumsy me always drop things to the floor and this lipstick survived countless drops especially when I’m doing my makeup in the rush. I’m starting to feel sorry for my cosmetics lol. But I always remind myself not to drop my Burberry palette as per advice by Adrian. Must remember that all the time.

CLIO Make Up - Eyes Review: Make Up

Review: CLIO Gelpresso Pencil Gel Liner is a Gel Liner in a Stick

To be frank I’m not good with eyeliner. I started to really draw my eyeliner somewhere last year. To see my friends with perfect eyeliner on (but without any makeup on mind you) makes me jealous. But it is true when people said “practice makes perfect”. I was determined to draw everyday. Day by day the time taken is shorten and appears more natural. Gel eyeliner is tricky to me at first but then I find that it’s also the easiest to use.

Recently a friend of mine told me about this eyeliner brand CLIO. I remember this eyeliner because I spent RM20 at Watsons and I was asked if I would want to purchase a mini set. I never heard of CLIO before and I’m not that good with eyeliner so I didn’t buy it. After finding out that CLIO Gelpresso Pencil Gel Liner is better than Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil, I find myself searching for this mini set.

The mini set that I bought comes with 5 different shade of pencil gel liner.

I like the metal case that hold all 5 mini pencil. If I need to bring the pencil out I would just throw the whole case in my bag. This product is made in Korea thus the Korean description at the back of the metal case.

Burberry Make Up - Eyes Review: Make Up

Review: Effortless Eye Definition with Burberry Beauty Complete Eye Palette #Pink Taupe No.07

Although I own Burberry’s single eyeshadow (Sheer Eye Shadow) but it was too beautiful to swatch or even use. In fact all my Burberry palette are still untouched as I’m typing this review. I know eventually I would need to start using it but at the moment let me admire it for slightly longer aight?

However…I couldn’t stand staring at the latest Burberry Beauty Complete Eye Palette #Pink Taupe No.07 so I started using it as soon as I taken the product shot needed. This whole week I only put on the eyeshadow from this palette and nothing else :).

Let me refresh your mind just a little bit. Burberry Beauty Complete Eye Palette is the first and only 4-color palette from Burberry. All these while Burberry Beauty only releases single eyeshadow. For someone who like to use 4 to 5 colors each use, the latest 4-color palette is much more economical for me.

The palette shade that I have is Pink Taupe No.07. Which is exactly what I’m going to review today.

Each palette comes in a black velvet pouch with the iconic Burberry check print on. This particular velvet pouch is different from their usual pouch. It has 3-compartment at the front to cater to the 3-applicators that comes with the palette.

Make Up - Face Rachel K Review: Make Up

Brand Introduction + Review: Rachel K Mineral CC Cream Neutral & Original

I still remember when the beauty world was hooked and couldn’t stop talking about BB Cream the short name for Blemish Balm when it was first introduced by the Korean. The BB Cream revolution is pretty much still as hot as it is a few years ago. Then recently the beauty world is once again astonished when CC Cream surfaced. Once again we had all these questions in our head on what it is, who came up with it, what is it for, why CC Cream and many more.

There’s this particular brand that got everyone talking about. When I first found out about Rachel K CC Cream I was so happy that I had the rush to locate the origin and have it ship to Malaysia. I’m glad I was busy at that time because we now have Rachel K in Malaysia! Yay!

Rachek K1
You must be wondering…who exactly is Rachel K? Me too but after reading online I thought you might be interested too. Here is a Rachel K success story.

Rachel Kum’s passion for all things creative and natural has been a lifelong commitment. From an early age, she was entranced by make-up for simply being fun in its ability to change the face with color. Growing up, her love of nature, beauty and especially cosmetics made this a focus of her personal expression. Before winning the Miss Singapore Universe title in 2009, Rachel’s road to her good skin and makeup did not come easy. Her own experience with skin and makeup and working with women whose careers depended on good complexion has allowed her to see how skin image not only threatens careers but can also destroy self confidence.

This has led her to devote two years to researching, testing and refining mineral makeup. As every woman knows good texture, even coverage and comfortable skin interaction are the chief ingredients in identifying a good brand of makeup, Rachel believes she has found the optimal product in her Rachel K cosmetics range.

The accolades come as no surprise as it took 2 years of groundbreaking research and testing in state-of-the-art cosmetic laboratories in USA, Korea and Japan, with a team of leading cosmetologists, dermatologists and make-up artists to produce this highly refined CC cream and its line of supporting products. Testament to its efficacy is the fact that the majority of the buzz around this cream has been generated not through a multi-million dollar campaign, but by word-of-mouth.

Make Up - Remover Olive & Tebe Review: Make Up

Review: Tebe Face Cleansing Milk is Not Hard to Like

Being someone who absolutely love doing makeup on a daily basis I find it not hard at all to buy makeup remover or in this case cleansing milk. I’m constantly on the look out for makeup remover. I have no problem stocking up various brands and bottle as this is the first item that used up quite fast.

A few months ago I picked up Tebe Face Cleansing Milk and I only started using it a month later. The bottle is quite small and I had already finished the bottle some time ago without realizing I haven’t post the review up.

Tebe28
What I like about the brand; Olive & Tebe is that both range – Olive and Tebe contain virgin olive oil. Everyone know olive oil is good for the skin and virgin olive oil is even better.

Daiso Make Up - Beauty Tools Review: Make Up

Review: Daiso Detergent For Puff and Sponge Clean Your Sponge in 1-Minute

If you are a compact powder or foundation user I guess you ought to know that you need to wash your sponge when it’s dirty. Or should I say when the powder no longer stick to the sponge or your face look cakey after application? For me I will wash my sponge when I see that the powder on the sponge is all cramped together. When I see that it means it’s time for a bath time.

Ever since I discovered Daiso 2 years ago, saw this Daiso Detergent For Puff and Sponge on the shelve and bought a bottle home…I never look back. I had repurchase so many times since then that I lost count on how many bottles I’ve used up. I have no reason to. It’s cheap and affordable for all income level plus it’s really that good. How cheap is cheap? Everyone know Daiso sells everything for RM5 each! Yes RM5!

The bottle design is kept simple and easy to use. Totally hassle free. Just flip the cap and pour and pour and pour.
