Unicorn, holo, rainbow, iridescent. These are what beauty enthusiasts are obsessed with from the recent trend. I think the key word is unique. Anything that is not the ordinary sells like hot cake. Then came the obsession with anything unicorn. And the Unicorn Brushes were launch and people go nuts!
The original Unicorn Brushes are not cheap and it is based on pre-order. Is there even such thing as the “original”? I don’t know. It’s the first to launch, it has better aesthetic look to it such as iridescent handle, evenly-made unicorn rainbow bristles and a unicorn brush pouch. I didn’t jump onto the unicorn brush bandwagon the minute it was out. I learnt through all the years of being a beauty enthusiast that some things are best to wait. And I was right this time. Unicorn Brushes are sold at RM90 per set of 5 or 10 on average, depending on the seller. Thanks to some shopping vouchers I obtained from some event, I had to browse through an online shopping portal that I discovered Unicorn Brushes selling for just RM11 per set of 5 or add RM4 to upgrade to a set of 10. But of course all the 10 pieces were sold out and I had to settle with a 5-piece set. I bought two different 5-piece set as I had to maximize my shipping fee. I got them weeks later and I hated them. Then I browse through the site again only to discovered the same seller changed the price to RM11 for a set of 10 pieces. This time I was determined to get another set but in plain white bristles. I got them weeks later again as seller informed me that it was sold out. When I got them, I was so happy with it. The plain white bristles with pastel purple handles are way better looking than the colorful bristles. Here are 5 Things You Need to Know About Unicorn Brushes.
I’m into yuzu these days. To be honest I have no real knowledge on what is yuzu. All I know is they looked like a hybrid between an orange and a lemon lol 😛 . But one thing I can assure you is that yuzu smells amazing. I first fell in love with yuzu scent when I bought a pack of yuzu scented steam eye mask from Singapore last year. That changes everything as anything with yuzu is either expensive or hard to get. However that’s not just the only scent from ShiKai. I mentioned a week or two ago that TNS Skin Lab recently added the brand ShiKai into their array of natural personal care selection. You know what’s better other than ShiKai is all natural? It is Made in the USA and are not tested on animals ❤️
Are you ready for more NEW lipbalm? I received quite a number of new lipbalm releases from Mentholatum and this Premium Rich Moist Lipbalm is one of it. Again, I won’t be reviewing these for the same reason as stated in this post. Colorless lipbalms are my go-to and my top pick when it comes to moisturizing the lips but I do get opportunities to try out new lipbalms from time to time and I know someone else need these more than I do although I must admit I am SUPER intrigued with these. So, these will be sent to one lucky reader of mine 🙂 . If you get a parcel from me from Poslaju, you know what you’re getting! 🙂
Premium Rich Moist Lipbalm is a super nourishing lipbalm, as the name suggest. It is formulated with not one but EIGHT moisturizing ingredients such as Olive Oil, Avocado Oil, Argan Oil. Jojoba Seed Oil, Honey, Royal Jelly Extract, Shea Butter and Moringa butter. All these moiturizing goodies helps to relieve dry and chapped lips while keeping the lips velvety silky smooth.
I have a few beautiful new dresses in the wardrobe and one of it is this Lace Bodycon Dress. Tell you a funny story on this dress. I had three dresses in my shopping cart and I was checking out. I always pay for my dress purchases with my Paypal and that day, no idea what is wrong with me that I decided I wanted to make payment using my Maybank account. So I hit the go back button and the page went missing. Then I saw the so-called order in my account with “payment pending” on it. I clicked on the order, didn’t see any button to click so I could make payment and I wanted to re-add all the dresses into my cart so I could reorder. This Lace Bodycon Dress was the last piece so I wasn’t able to find it anymore. I called Zalora as I was desperate. Here’s what’s interesting. I was told the order did not went through (as I expected as I didn’t pay for it) and there is no way they could “release” this dress back into the market from their end. All I can do is to wait 4 hours for the system to auto-refresh. If I still didn’t see it in 4 hours, that means it will take 24 hours. Oh my gosh!
So far BY TERRY‘s new launches has been nothing but interesting and a hit. From the much love Rouge-Expert Click Stick, which remains my most used and favourite lipstick, to the interesting Techno Aura Glow-Expert Duo Stick, which I had fun making video of, and Eye Designer Palette Parti-Pris, which is an underestimated eyeshadow palette. Out with the Spring now let’s welcome Autumn/Winter 2017 collection – the BY TERRY Expert 2017 Collection.
BY TERRY Expert 2017 Collection adapted a new technology – I.M.C.® short for Intensive Mimetic Camouflage technology that is inspired by backstage and photo shoot makeup session challenges. The products within the collection are formulated with optical prisms blend, micro-camouflage pigments and mineral powders. All these work hand-in-hand to blur every imperfection on the skin, it smoothes skin texture if any, minimizes shin, capture and reflect light and it brings out the skin’s natural beauty. Terry de Gunzburg was inspired by the cultural trend that makes her create this new collection: as technically crafted and superior as professional makeup products, that are able to attain flawless skin without requiring any particular makeup expertise. No photo touch-ups but appears as perfect as it does in real life. Sounds like every selfie lover’s dream came true, eh? 😀
