CHANEL Rouge Allure Velvet 43 LIPSTICK REVIEW and SWATCHES


Chanel, a luxurious brand in the industry whether in fashion nor beauty industry. CHANEL is an established brand for high end products. The logo and packaging itself made people feel like collecting and own it.  Of course the power of having it empowered and influence all the women all around the world to own CHANEL product at least one in life time. 

Chanel signature clutch/ handbag is the one that has been aiming by every lady in the world. 

I know it is impossible for me to get the signature cluthc at this very young age and that absolutely would be listed in my "life" dream wishlist . Medium size please!

haha due to my "long term" dream, I decided to get a Chanel lipstick, just want to add in my collection. 

Lipstick is women bestfriend, So dear CHANEL lipstick, I have invested lots of money to own you,  you better be my good bestfriend k? tak nak patah2 and make sure sedap pakai especially when I apply it onto the lips, I want to feel the luxurious and smooth glide from you. 


Packaging is the main statement of CHANEL LIPSTICK.
Black and gold just complement perfectly and brings the exclusivity to the wearer. 
It would be a lie if I say I bought it ,not because of packaging and brand. Honestly, I do look at the brand exclusivity and packaging. It's very nice and I feel like I own the whole world when I see pretty makeup packaging. 



This part attracts me the most. The specialty of Chanel lipstick is by pushing or injecting the lipstick out from the container. It's totally changed my life and makes it so easy by opening a lipstick without using two hands, just one hand is more than enough. Tekan and it pop out, swipe onto the lips and ready to go. 


Love the gold detail with simple logo.



The color that I chose is No 43, La favorite. Ya, its my favorite :)

Description of the color: Coral-ly peach with warm undertoned.

Texture: seems the name of the lipstick is Rouge Allure Velvet lipstick therefore I can feel the velvet-y texture, very soft and comfortable on the lips. Doesn't feel drying and at the same time feel luxurious.

It glides smoothly onto the lips but need to apply few times for high pigmented lips and also not really suitable to dry chapped lips. I am fine with the texture eventhough my lips are freaking chapped but some people would find it annoying.

Description of the ROUGE ALLURE VELVET.
 It is matte, no shimmer and  there's also velvet-y soft texture.  It is not a moisturising lipstick.

Longetivity: UP TO 4 hours without eating in between. seriously, I am not even kidding. AWESOME! worth it.




Great investment for makeup addict. Totally worth it :) Try lah :)

Price: RM 100
Where to buy?: all Chanel counters, Parkson, iSetan and etc. 

See you in the next post. Thinking of doing Top 5 red lipsticks :) hehehehe.

2015 My favorite SPA Beauty Products

My time has shifted. 
I have other commitment rather than blogging, makeup job, online site business and regular works. Even due to busy working life,  I still have my own sweet time in pampering my physical body. 

2015 gives a huge impact to me, mega changes. My beauty spa has changed. Trying to maximize my usage and practically use everything I have in my bathroom.  That comes the idea, to share what I have been loving and using starting January 2015 til now. 

I does my makeup on daily regular basis. 
By hook or by crook, by end of the day I need to remove my makeup. 

Here you go, my two makeup wipe favorites; SIMPLE and BIORE. 


In term of heavy makeup removal, I normally use Simple cleansing wipe for my entire face skin and Biore makeup wipes for my eye makeup specially waterproof makeup.
Speaking of Biore wipes, it is great in eye makeup removal yet some people with sensitive eyes just can't stand with it. Please take note on this matter.

In other hand, Simple makeup wipes also can remove eye makeup yet need to wipe gently as the tissue surface is quite coarse and it may hurt the delicate area.

Both work great in removing makeup and price wise,  they are almost the similar.

Bioderma cleansing water is my favorite makeup removal among all. Fairly remove light makeup effectively without burning the eyes and etc. It may costs bank pain, but WORTH every ringgits. I got it from France trip with very affordable price. 


Where to get it in MALAYSIA? Bioderma is available at selected Guardian pharmacies. 

Many thanks to Shaza Amalina (my bff) for introducing this awesome and affordable cotton pad. Previously I used normal facial cotton pad from Guardian / Watsons . After been introduced into this Daiso Cotton Pad, it is now my ultimate favorite and it would be my forever cotton pad. I love it's texture, can't really describe it but I would like to recommend you guys to get it and try it yourself.

If you are familiar with Sephora cotton pad, well, I could say it is ALMOST similar to Sephora cotton pad but it's in square shape.


2 boxes for RM 5.

Everyone keep asking me, what are you using for your facial wash?
Really? wanna know my honest answer?

1) I normally use Clean and clear facial wash.
2) if it's empty, I will normally use whatever I have in the bathroom. Free facial wash or anything.
3) emptied facial wash I've used: Nano White, Clean and Clear, Alaisyah, Garnier, Eau Thermale and many more, other brands that I can't really recall.

Currently I've been using Alaisyah facial foam for the past months. The reason why I used this facial is because of my parents, they bought it extra and ya, it's me, their princess who loves to use all of their stuffs. haha. Don't really call it as "stealing" but in a proper terminology, it's called BORROW, use and own. haha. Only applicable among family.


Price: ~ RM 10.


Polish your face.
Sounds a bit offensive but it's true. After using it, my skin feels softer and smoother. It removes all the dirt from deep inside the  pores. It has minty burning effect but after few minutes , it faded away.

How to use: apply it on the face as face mask . Leave it about 5 min, then scrub it for couple of minutes and rinse it off.

Use Biore Pack to remove blackheads. Only applicable when my blackheads are empowered my nose. Normally I will use toothpaste and squeeze the blackheads out by my own. hahaha! Exception for blackhead berpasukan, then only I need to use this Biore nose strip.

For these two items I usually use them on weekend ONLY.



Toner and moisturiser are important.

Currently I am using these two items, Garnier and Nano White toner for my daily skin care regime. Nothing much to say but this Garnier moisturiser has floral scent into it and it doesn't make my skin feels sticky or greasy.


On daily basis, I don't really "rajin" to keep using these two items. 

Kalau moisturiser and toner, yaaa. I always use these two products but serum and miracle essence are the only ones that I normally use 3-4 times in a week ONLY! 

Not saying they are not crucial but, I am just a type of person that don't really have discipline in applying skincare. 

Precisely saying, I am LAZY, tapi sebenarnya, these two products are the most important element in skin care regime.

Both are my favorites, love these two combination, make my skin look healthier and glowy.



Mask is my favorite.

I always use face mask sheet and clay alternately.

The function of clay mask is to repair my skin and gives healthier glowy skin whilst the sheet mask makes my skin moisturised and supple.

all the masks shown are highly recommended!



Searching for the best cooling, soothing under eye mask?
Try this out!
I have roughly 6 packs in my drawer and each pack has 3 pairs of eyemask.

SASA- RM 10 for 3 or 4 packets.

This is my first time heard of MATRIX BIOLAGE. 
Do you know about it?
Have you heard of this brand?

I've seen it at HAIR DEPOT store and never thought of giving it a try. 
Received this bottle from Butterfly Christmas gift box and guess what? I'm loving it. 
It doesn't dries out my hair, cleanse my scalp perfectly and soften my fuzzy hair with a bonus of decent scent. Thumbs up! 

The Herbal essence hair mask complements the shampoo with high density of moisture. Thanks to Syafiqah XoXo for giving me this awesome hair mask, and now I can walk like a true diva, :P

COVO matte magic lipstick review | Icy Coral | Malaysia


Looking for an affordable yet high quality lipstick?
You may consider this into your bucket list.

Honestly from my first glance, I never thought of getting any thing from this brand, maybe because I just had too many makeup and feel like saving my money from buying more makeup.

Let me saying it clearly because I don't want people to misunderstand my words + my chronology on how I ended up buying COVO Lipstick. 

1) Never feel like buying it because of the retail price, never heard of the brand, never heard any review about it, therefore, I never thought of spending my money into this brand.

2) Yes, I have seen this brand threw few events, launches and so on ...few of my blogger friends attended the events, speaking a lot of good things about it, but none of them attract my attention to give it a try. WHY?
The only reason I don't buy because they promoting something "normal", "regular" and I feel there's nothing special about it until I can spend my MONEY into it. Most of them didn't review the lipsticks. Besides that, most of their reviews are full of selfies, nothing interesting and cover more into events instead of products.

3) Innanie's review and Layla's post attract my attention. They reviewed this lipstick with the unique feature; mirror. The mechanism that I have been searching for ages!
4) SOLD OFF by these two ladies, I went to the counter at Sunway Pyramid, they had an amazing deal, mark down to RM 22.50 from RM 45.

5) TRIED, FALL IN LOVE, and it's been my favorite lipstick til then. 



Texture and pigmentation

The texture is soft and buttery, moist, glides smoothly onto the lips even though it is MATTE. It has decent vanilla smell almost similar to MAC lipstick! Seriously, the quality of this product is amazing. Even the texture is beatable to MAC! Forget the RM 70 MAC Bullet, give this a try cause it is worth to be given attention.
 Even though it is matte, yet if in MAC collection, the texture would be more classified as satin, which is creamy, very pigmented, with medium moisturizing level between moist and matte as well as smooth application.

I would like to try other types too so that I could compare the texture with MAC, maybe next time.


Color description
It has warm peachy- coral color that suits on all Asian complexion from fair to dark.

Color Choice
They have limited of color choice. I wish the matte finish has bright and bold colors so that it won't smudge and stay on placed. The moisturising type of lipstick hold variety of bold and bright colors; red, plum, hot pink whilst the matte type has opposite colors; nude and light pink family.
I prefer red color to be in matte-finish instead of moisturizing finish because it won't smudge all over-the-place. 



Packaging.

This is the most interesting part, interesting enough until I've been using it until quarter of bullet because of this. It has my full dream packaging! Few months before been introduced to this lipstick (basically know them from my friends: Innanie Ariffin and Layla)

LOVE: The mirror, square classy packaging, the single stone (I wish the stone is in white).
HATRED: The logo ( honestly, I found the star looks cute and doesn't suits with the packaging and the lipstick personality :P) .

I can't blame the Logo since it is their company profile identity, but I just wish they change it! Make it more elegance and sophisticated.







That's all my simple review. 
Thank you for reading. 


in the website:
"This is a creamy matte, colour-rich lipstick with silk-like, satin finish. Covo’s Matte Magic Lipstick is enriched with vitamin E and active ingredients for moisturising, nourishing and improves the depth of fine lines and wrinkles on the lips.The well-balanced formula provides comfort with hydrating & moisturising benefits, yet stays matte the whole day."
