MAC Office Hour Collection

I really like this ad campaign!

and ... I found a tutorial that reminds me of this look!

Guerlain Face Products First Impression

OMG! I cannot believe I am posting my full of acne face!! 

Anyways.. here are the demos of the products...

Primer

I think this is the best primer I have tried so far. I have not try a lot of different kind of primer because I feel like it adds an extra steps to my make-up routine. I have tried MAC, Hourglass, Smashbox so far. I hated the smashbox one, I feel it really thick - clogging my pores and does not really do anything. I think the MAC and Hourglass one is very similar.  They work, but this Guerlain one is good. It feels really light and slightly brighten my complextion as it comes out as a pink pearly gel.

Foundation

I am surprise how liquidy the foundation is because normally a full coverage foundation is very thick and gel like foundation. The foundation dries really quick though so you have to work really fast. I do not know how I feel about this foundation though. It has a pretty good staying power as compared to other foundations I have tried (May be the primer helps!). As you can see from the pictures even with 2 layers it does not really cover my acne - or may be my acnes are very stubborn :(. 

I like it but I do not know if I love it.

Powder

I think I have tried so many better powder that this. My favourite is Chanel Double Perfection. In addition I am surprise on how small and light this compact is - leaving the impression that it does not contain that many products. (hahaha Kiasu)

I definitely love the smell of ALL of the products - it feels really luxurious. So, if you are allergic to fragrance, please avoid these!

Please keep in mind that we all have different skin types. I hope this helps you. :D
Let me know your thoughts!

FOTD | Pink and Purple

after a week of settling down at new place.. I play with my make up again.. :)



I used everyday mineral foundation in medium (intensive finish), blush (i dont know where i got it from) but it looks like dollymix by MAC. Loreal Voluminous mascara. and Revlon Colorstay eyeliner.

i used the eyeshadow quad from ELF (eyeslipsface.com) in "silver lining". Btw, you probably knew that almost everything from the website is $1.. some of them are $3 or $5.. its super cheap!!

Here's the close up of the eye make up.. haha so messy! im too lazy to correct the mascara that is on my lid :P but from far u cant really see, it gave people an illusion of thicker lashes anyway

FOTD | Amber Green Look

This is a very simple everyday eye look! It tooks less than 5 mins to do.

Dont forget to always prime your eye; I am using urban decay primer potion.

Add amber-golden eyeshadow as an all over lid color, I am using eyeshadow from Ulta

Line your eye (a little bit winked), I am using cream eyeliner by smashbox in black (you can use any cream/gel black eyeliner).

Set the liner with a green color, I am using MAC humid.

And you are all set.

okay so lately i have found my love AGAIN. I love chanel so much. the make up, the purse, the clothing, jewellery, everything. but its too expensive that i cant even afford any of it except for the cosmetics :)

a few weeks ago stupid chanel sales assistance in northgate mall push me to buy their newest foundation, lift lumiere. knowing the name, "lift", makes me feel uncomfortable because it usually associated with old women. but somehow i did purchased it. she put the foundation all over my face too. she allowed me to exchange my compact powder too. how nice isnt it?

the next morning when i look at myself in the mirror, im quite surprise to see some redness and bump in my skin. i thought to myself: may be this is because of the period that im going to get soon. so i dont really care too much.

then in the afternoon, we went for a walk at downtown and we went to nordstrom. greedy me asked the chanel sales assistant to give me sample of the lift lumiere so i have a little bit more to use. (btw, lift lumiere so expensive like $70) She looked at me funny and said that my skin doesnt look that old. im so surprised. instead she gave me another sample, pro lumiere. im so shocked to hear that! and i suddenly realized that those foundation is causing the pimples on my face (its not just one pimple ok, there's like 5 altogether). im so mad then we went home then continue to alderwood mall. i brought my lift lumiere for a return. the lady was so nice to me she gave me two foundation sample: mat lumiere and teint innocence.

okok i used both foundation on my face. left: teint innocence and right: mat lumiere. i love both but im not going to buy both because each is around $50. so im debating which one to get. but i think im going to go with the mat lumiere because first of the packaging it come with a pump. then higher spf. and one of my favourite guru in youtube always use that. its $7 more but i will be happy with that :)

oh yah! im going to purchase the grand duo by mac. i have decided which one to get: love rock and moon river. the name is so sweet. im so excited. cant wait till the 19th. that's when we are going to bellevue square nordstrom because my sister has a facial appointment with clarins. so happy :)
