How many of you have this problem? You applied your favorite lipstick on, you look amazing and you feel pretty. Then when you smile you saw vertical streaks of lipstick on the lower lips especially. Yikes! Ugly and embarrassing right? I believe most of us had this problem, especially if you have a fuller, thick lips that are dry, chapped and wrinkled. Like mine 🙁
In today’s make up tips edition I’m going to show you ONE simple step in achieving that smooth lipstick lips. That’s right. Just one. No lip scrub or lip balm will be used or involved in achieving this flawlessly smooth lips. I have read about what type of lipstick and lip color that will not settle into fine lines and so on. It is too troublesome to just buy certain type of lipstick. To prove that, I’m going to use a matte lipstick for this tutorial that most people will avoid. You will see an amazing result using the method that I used. This will be a short post too as picture paints a thousand words :).

Review: Get Satisfying, Relaxing, Deep Sleep with The Body Shop Deep Sleep Dreamy Pillow & Body Mist
Of all product at The Body Shop the one product I never heard or knew the existence of is this Deep Sleep Dreamy Pillow & Body Mist. I bet most of you agree too right? Who am I kidding? Actually most people also told me that they never even know about The Body Shop have this Peppermint Cooling Foot Spray :D.
Got to thank one of the beauty box bag again for introducing this. However the confusing part is discovering another version at the store and at their online store – Quiet Night Dreamy Pillow & Body Mist. I’m guessing both work just the same.
So. What is this mist anyway? In a nutshell…it is a quick-drying pillow OR body mist to encourage a more restful sleep.
At the store I notice that there’s 2 sizes, one in 60ml and another one in 100ml. It comes in a half opaque spray bottle. Spray nozzle works just fine. Mum and I finished a whole bottle and didn’t encounter any problem with the misting, unlike other similar bottle.

Rather than my usual 1,000 to 2,000 words review, I’m going to keep this post short. I have people telling me that my product reviews are too detail which I can’t help but to raise an eyebrow. Aren’t review suppose to be in detail? Would you prefer to read half way cause I hate reading a review that are incomplete with just a few pictures that I need to google for another review. Well anyway everyone review differently. Like it or not I like mine to be IN DETAIL lol 😀
Anyway back to the cleansing gel. How I discover this Uriage Hyséac Gentle Cleansing Gel was quite funny. I had this from MIVVA March 2013 edition which means I’ve been keeping it for a few months. I keep a few cleanser near the sink and a few more in the bathroom. One of the cleanser near the sink ran out so I took Uriage Hyséac Gentle Cleansing Gel out from the storage to use. After that I took a short nap. I woke up a few hours later with my eye still closed, walked to the sink to wash my face with Uriage Hyséac Gentle Cleansing Gel. At that time I have a tube of Clarins Purifying Cleansing Gel near the sink as my morning cleanser. Half way through the cleansing I stopped, open one eye to check if I got the right cleansing gel. It was Uriage one alright but how come it smells like Clarins? I stoned in front of the sink, with cleanser and hands on my face for a few minutes before I took another sniff of the cleanser. That is when I realized I found the exact dupe version of the now extinct Clarins Purifying Cleansing Gel. Well maybe not 100% but 98% 😀
