Birthday Presents from Sephora and MAC haul!

Well, yesterday was my birthday and I just got my Sephora birthday email around 3pm in the afternoon. I'm really excited to get my birthday present from Sephora all the time, since I became their member and guess what? This time they give me an awesome posemm threat! 

Just refer to the pictures below and you would know the reason why I turned into a monkey yesterday!




WOOOOOOOOOOW! 
Two presents at one time! They're so generous! I really can't wait to redeem the Sephora Mini Makeup Palette! <3 
Oh ya, a short story on my birthday diary...Yesterday I was at Bukit Bintang area but I didn't go to Sephora since I was walking for hours at Lowyat wearing high heels and unable to walk further than that area anymore. Seriously, even my earlier plan to go to MAC cosmetic at Pavillion store was changed to Isetan storedue to my feet pain. Anyway, thank you for all wishes friends and also surprises. <3 Really appreciate it. The most wonderful moment in my life.

Here a picture of me taken spontaneously / candid while the beauty consultant helps me to apply lipstick on my lips. The colour applied was Candy yum yum. The colour doesn't suit me eventhough its really pretty.

p/s: I may look a bit weird in the photo below, so if you're pregnant/ or have heart attack disease, please skip this photo. I'm afraid you couldn't accept the fact that I look ugly in the photo like I do. haha 




The items I got from MAC for myself. The blusher is sponsored by Ain, my sister as a birthday present. Thank you. 

Lipstick: Amplified Chatter-box
Blusher: Sheertone Shimmer blush in Peachykeen

I really enjoy the two items I grabbed yesterday! even today I'm wearing them at home. haha. (my dad geleng kepala) haha.

That's all my short update for today!
^_^  (bunny smile)

Happy Sunday girls!

Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in "Pink In The Afternoon"

Assalamualaikum and Hi readers!

Just to share one of my current natural daily lipstick colour which is Revlon in "Pink in the Afternoon".
This lipstick gives nice pink hint on my lips just fine freshen up my pale lips.
So, the purpose for making this post if to influence you adding new lipstick into your collection ^_^
Hahah. It is just a basic creamy pink for everyone. The colour won't visible brightly on lips, it is just a natural pink. 





PINK IN THE AFTERNOON



PROS
Bullet Graphics It's creamy and glides smoothly on lips
Bullet Graphics Lasting power is about 2 to 4 hours on me. I'm not sure about you but I'm a person that love to lick my  lips with no reason, so if you've the same bad habit as mine, guess it's gonna be same.
 Bullet Graphics My cracky lips doesn't shown up after applying this lipstick. 
Bullet Graphics No funny smell/ frangrance free
Bullet Graphics Not sticky and at the same time not too dry
Bullet Graphics It doesn't dry out my lips. 
Bullet Graphics Nice classy packaging and easy to hold. 


CONS
Bullet Graphics   The colour is so soft and would not show up very well. It is just a basic creamy pink.
Bullet Graphics  You might need pair it with lipbalm or lipgloss to get glossy effects.
Bullet Graphics   Need re-apply the lipstick because the colour is fading through out the time. 


That's all my short thoughts on it. It is not just a lipstick, it is women's bestfriend! 

The lipstick was purchased by my own money. All thoughts are mine. No plagiarism in this post.  

Thank you for reading!

Vanity Trove April 2013 edition review

Hi readers!

For the first time, I did not do the unboxing post/video and straightly jump into review. I guess I'm the last person to do this review post since I've seen a lot of bloggers had done their reviews and unboxing posts.
Honestly, I can't wait to open the box and I opened it once I received the box. So, sorry for no video on it. Hence, in order to replace the unboxing video, I did a video recorded with my own iphone and edited with my own ability and ideas (that's why this time the video going to be delay, blog post first, video soon). Sorry for the  low quality video this time. ^_^ Forgive me darlings! I will do a better one next time. InsyaAllah..





The first thing I saw when I opened it.
A catalog of the month!
The theme is THE SHOWER OF SUMMER
and all the product details are in it.
I really love the details they've given us, but it would be nice if in the catalog they state where could we get the products in stores. Because some of the products are really new for us and we did not know where could we get it. We are not kaki jalan to know all the products at one time, aren't we? and most of us are lazy to browse just to know where could we get the item. WAIT WAIT WAIT! Not we all,  maybe only me. haha. sometimes, I'm lazy to browse internet. (sometimes need to blame the band-width connection too!)  heheh





This is what I see when I remove the catalog and all the other papers.
In this picture, you'll see there are 5 products in it but actually , there are 6 items!

Lets see what they've gave us in this month!

PERKINS NAIL WRAP

Try out a stylish and quick dry mani-pedi nail wrap! They're transparent nail-wrap base that allows fuss-free sticking and creative mix-and-match with its wide rnage of designs and colours. There are 21 vareity of designs and uniquely made in Korea.
They claimed that this nail wrap can last up to 14days. 
Size: Full size
Price: RM 39.90 (20 strips)

In a box, there is 20 strips of sticker (for hands and feet), a nail buffer and a catalog of 20 variety fun designs to choose from!



Did you spot the design that I get?
Its N14!!  hehe. 

KATE eyeshadow DB in BR 2
It boosts a palette with two shades that can be used individually or mixed. 
They comes in 8 different hues and great for beginners and professional. 
If you're beginner, this palette is great for you as it comes with an instruction and the colour is really natural, light for eyes. You may choose this colour if you want , it's categorized as a safe colour.

Size: Full Size

Price: RM 49



For the real reason why Im happy for this month's box, it is because of this! This eyeshadow makes me smile for the whole month! Hope VT could gives more makeups for the upcoming troves. 

The swatches for the two colours. 
Quite creamy, silky,easy to blend and quite pigmented. 
But the colour that I get is not so visible on eyes. Maybe because of the shimmer in it (they're not matte). 


ORIKS

"The Gemstone Nano Platinum Aqua Cream is a moisturizer that smoothens wrinkles, tighten pores and brightens your complexion." (Once I heard these words, I feel like this is a must to try!) 
"It contains more than 90 types of natural minerals to boost skin vitality and protects your skin from harsh environmental stressors."
 They claimed that, when you apply this, "the hydrating formula locks in plenty of moisture to maintain supple and dewy skin after a long day in the hot summer sun".
Wow, really summer formula isn't it? I will give a try on this. 
I just realized that a good moisturizer could helps us to lift up our skin, give full nutrient, makes our skin looks glow and healthy. 

Size: Sample size 
Price: RM398 (50g)

ISSEY MIYAKE, L'EAU D'ISSEY -FLORALE

CLARINS

"The Intensive Brightening Serum is the most advance skincare for a fairer and healthier skin. The exclusive Trans-Luminescent Complex, it has the ability to revive your skin's micro-mirrors at every layer, so that your skin appears clear and radiant. With this ultimate brightening serum, skin looks fair, even and translucent with a rosy glow" 

My lil comment:
I don't know whether this serum will works or not, but by looking the information and instruction how to apply it on face, I do think this is a good product. Plus, wo doesnt know Clarins? They are expensive but worth to use. Our face is precious and we may consider what to use on face because it is the most sensitve part and we don't want to ruin it. 
Plus, Clarins is made from France, I can trust France dermalogical products because most of France facial products are good to all range of skin types from normal to sensitive skins. But of course, France beauty skin care normally quite pricey but if they work on your skin, better you continue with it. Love yourself, money is subject number 2. 

Size: Sample size
Price: RM 295(30ml)

Size: Full size

Price: RM39.90/10 pieces box



When I get this month's trove, I was like.... damn extremely happy and can't describe my happiness by words. Only people around me know how happy I am when I received the box. (like a monkey, jumping around...and the laughing like a Pontianak!) 
Pontianak is a vampire in malay or indonesia version. They're women and love to laugh scarily with no reason. 


There are three full size items in this box. Lets calculate the price;

1) Kila Doll Mask  RM 3.99
2) Kate Eyeshadow RM 49
3) Perkins Nail wrap RM 39.90
Total: RM 92.89

How much you paid for this box?
RM 60

So, this month box is really amazing and VT has improved their services and products in the trove. I hope they would maintain the performances, quality of the products and also adding more value into the trove.
Additional, some of the sample size of products are really new to me and some of them give me great impression. I can label the quality of the sample products chosen this month is a "A". 

Oh ya, Great news to all, 
after revising the price, Vanity Trove reduce the price from RM 60 to RM 50 but they won't reduce the quality of the product. 
Product quality will be remain the same. 
This is because they want you all enjoy the beauty box with lower price and they are currently improving their product by customer-needs driven not to company needs. 


I will upload the video separately since I'm having difficulties in formatting the video. huhu. 
Sorry, I'm not so good in editing videos. haha

Thank you for reading!

Review on Too Cool For School Art Class Lip Crayon in Orange



LET'S GO TO SCHOOL AND BRING YOUR PERSONAL CRAYON WITH YOU!


CHARACTERISTICS
Glossy (not like lipgloss/ not sticky), but no glitter, no shimmer.

Not so creamy but more to wax texture.

Light texture and makes me feel comfortable to apply it as much as I want.

Suit for daily use. 

 In pencil shape/ crayon shape



PRO
Quite moisturizing.For some reason, I love this compared to Revlon balm stain.

The colour last on me between 2 to 3 hours. But still better compared to some other lipsticks that disappear in every 30 min. 

It is in pencil form, so it's easy to apply on lips and line up the lips shape

It glides smoothly on lips. 

Nice packaging, cute, simple, slim and sleek easy to keep in makeup pouch.


CONS
Need to be sharpen. 

The colour is quite sheer (but not too sheer), need to layer 2 to 4 layers to get nice bold colour .

I always re-apply this colour for every one to two hours to maintain opaque colour. -but actually,I don't care what's people think, I always apply it in public because it looks like a balm to others, so, people would thought that I re-apply balm or marker pen on my lips :P
(If lipstick, I'm quite shy to apply it in public/ kedai mamak/ anywhere after I'd my meal)

Need to close the cap carefully  or else, its gonna be messy (the product will hit the cap if we didn't close the cap carefully)

The cap will be easily broken because its made from plastic.

 I hate the shape after I've sharpen it. It becomes ugly and not in the perfect /nice shape. :(






The colour in the picture above is almost similar to the real one in person.
But in the picture you couldn't see the glossy effects because the texture is really smooth and quite moisturising. (Not moist like Revlon Lipbutter  which is really buttery but its moisturising level is just nice for me) 




Price: RM 35
Colour(s) available: Pink, Red and Orange (Malaysia)
(oversea; additional of Blue and Yellow)



From Left; Red, Pink, Orange, Yellow, Blue

I heard that blue gives pearly shimmer and yellow gives glittery effects. But when you mix two colors from their line, it will form a pretty new shade. 


Photo taken from google image

Ingredients;
Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride Diisostearyl Malate Polyglyceryl-2 Triisostearate Polybutene Lanolin Dipentaerythrityl Hexahydroxystearate /Hexastearate/Hexarosinate Ceresin Microcrystalline Wax VP/Hexadecene Copolymer Euphorbia Cerifera (Candelilla) Wax Polyethylene Sorbitan Sesquioleate Rosa canina fruit oil Butylparaben PARFUM Titanium Dioxide CI 77499 (Iron Oxides ) CI 77492 (Iron Oxides ) CI 19140 (Yellow 5 Lake ) CI 15850 (Red 6 Lake ) Bismuth Oxychloride Iron Titanium Oxide

p/s: I have no idea why I posted the ingredients but atleast you'll know what they'd put into the lip crayon.
