Although I don’t have a clear, even lip line especially on the bottom lip, I’m not used to applying lip liner before lip stick. Generally are you’re aware, I have dry, chapped, wrinkly lips, and lip liner will dry or accentuate the lip wrinkles even more. It is only last year I started to wear lip liner when I’m feeling the tiny bit fancy for the day but I wear it in a different way, which I will share with you soon. 2015 is the year that totally change me when it comes to liner liner, thanks to Smashbox Always Sharp Lip Liner. I was so thrilled that Smashbox include two of their Always Sharp Lip Liner for me to review and the shades that I got are Fuchsia, my favourite shade of all and Nude Light, the PERFECT nude shade.
The name Always Sharp Lip Liner is self-explanatory. At first I wasn’t aware that the name actually do mean what it mean. I thought it’s just a product name without thinking deep. You know me. I’m always blur lol. Smashbox created this awesome lip liner that self-sharpens every time you twist the cap off. HOW AWESOME IS THAT? The idea came from Marilyn. Audrey. Angelina, icons who prove that one of our core beauty beliefs that a lip can make a legend. Inspired by these perfect pouts. So Smashbox created this product that not only to Self-Sharpening but also a product to Glide-On Shaping and Color-Match Sculpting legendary lips.
Soap & Glory Original Pink™ Fragrance Favourites
The first ever Soap & Glory product that I had enjoyed using and repurchased is the one and only Flake Away. It is also the cheapest body care within the brand (RM39) until I went to Sephora to repurchase a third tub. The price shoot up to RM55! I didn’t repurchase any since then and I’ve been missing Flake Away scent so so much. I can’t remember how or where I found out that Flake Away contain Soap & Glory signature Original Pink™ fragrance. So what else? I went amok with everything that has the exact scent!
When I was at the Sephora Black Card event, I grabbed a bottle of Clean On Me™ Creamy Clarifying Shower Gel. I was looking high and low for The Righteous Butter™ Body Lotion and there was none. I went back the next day with my mum to search again and I only managed to find the mini tub of The Righteous Butter™ Body Butter (RM19). I used the mini tub so moderately, as if it’s the most precious thing in the world. Then luck was on my side. I managed to purchase another bottle of Soap & Glory Clean On Me™ Creamy Clarifying Shower Gel (RM48) and The Righteous Butter™ Body Lotion (RM65) during the first Black Card Private Sale 20% OFF back in October 2014. Everything seems more worth it with 20% OFF isn’t it? 😀
When it comes to Sephora, BareMinerals is the most generous with providing samples to the store. I remember many years ago when Sephora opened a store in KLCC and there was a BareMinerals READY Foundation and brush deluxe sample redemption. I redeemed mine successfully even at that time I wasn’t their White Card member. Fast forward to 2014, a few years after the first Sephora store here in KL, BareMinerals foundation and brush deluxe sample is the most given out GWP by far.
I never went back to purchase the highly raved BareMinerals powder foundation because the deluxe sample doesn’t work for me. The powder is sheer and the mini brush which is suppose to bear the same bristle as the retail size brush is so scratchy and flare out. At that time I couldn’t understand how or why everyone like it. How could anyone replace liquid foundation with mineral powder foundation that sheer? I soon learnt why.
It all started with me watching From Head To Toe YouTube video on how to apply BareMinerals foundation. That’s when I was sold. Of course I have some reservation as well because Jen’s skin is flawless compare to mine. I think it was about 2-3 months later I finally gave in and went to Sephora to purchase the Customizable 6-Piece Get Started Kit.
After the success of SK-II’s first ever Pitera™ House back in October 2014 (which I visited several times), I’m happy to announce that SK-II will be launching the SK-II #ChangeDestiny Museum which will highlight Pitera’s power to change skin’s destiny and to empower women to #ChangeDestiny with the theme – SKIN CHANGES DESTINY.

In conjunction with the SK-II #ChangeDestiny Museum, SK-II would like to offer YOU and your friends and family a special golden ticket to visit the museum.

The first time for SK-II, two of its Global Brand Ambassadors is coming to Malaysia at the same time!
