[] Simple Coffret D'or FOTD~~[]

Hey all.~~
Just wanted to do a simple FOTD.
can't believe it's already May... saw lots of April's favourites video on youtube. LOL.

So here's a list of things that I used for this look. just a simple day look.

Face:
- Estee Lauder Double Wear light in intensity 01 (my second tube)
- Maquillage Powder Foundation
- Rimmel highlight concealer ( LOVE THIS STUFF!!)
- Nars Deep Throat blush. (hit pan and nearly finished)

Eyes:
-Coffret D'or Pallete in 04
- Mac powerpoint liner in duck
- Majorlica Majorca Lash Expander

Lips:
- Revlon Colorburst in Mauve (new favourite lipstick)


The packaging is classic. Very nice for a drugstore brand. thought a bit expensive if you buy it in priceline. I got mine online for $6.00 USD. HAHAHA


So here's some swatches. THe left side is only applied once. so you can pack on the colour and the right is a heavier swatch.This is my bare lips. ugly T___T

This is what the lipstick looks like on lips in natural lighting.


So for eyes, use the light colour of the coffret d'or pallete as highlight. use the blended colour as all over the lid. then use Mac eyeliner to line your eyes. I didn't care if it was a messy line or not because you go over the liner with the dark brown colour from the pallete.


Apply Mascara to both bottom and top lashes.

Put on some blush. dab on the revlon lipstick.
and you are good to go.

Need to fix up my eyebrows.. hahaha it's becoming unruly LOL..

YES finally Friday. looking forward to weekend..

[] Maquillage & Coffret D'or HauL ~~[]

Hey all ~~
I bought some stuff that was released not long ago. Just wanted to share my initial thoughts of these products.

First thing is the Coffret D'or Perfect Grade Eyes Pallete.
It's in the shade 04. A neutral peachy colour and a like brown colour. Both have shimmer.

I like other pallete I had from Coffret D'or with similar colour I forgot what is it called. But came out a while ago. This perfect grade eyes pallete contains two colour buy can mix to get a middle colour.

That's what the Package looks like. I didn't buy the case for it. I thought it's just the company trying to make more money. It doesn't makes sense to not have a case when you buy foundation/eyeshadows and things.

This is how it looks like when opened.
Comparing to my other coffret d'or pallete from a while ago. I really liked the old pallete.


Here's some swatches. Top Row is the old pallete. the pale peachy colour is lighter than the perfect grade eyes. and the brown is slightly more gray. The Bottom is the Perfect Grade Eyes. so the middle one is mixed two colours together.

So the Next item is Shiseido Maquillage White Lighting Powdery UV Foundation Compact.
(the longest name =__=|||)
The packaging is very girly I have to say. but elegant at the same time.

So this is the powder and the case comes separately . YOu have to put them together.
I got the Colour OC-10


This is what the foundation looks like under natural indoor lighting.
OC-10 Is actually just a tad lighter than Coffret D'or OC-C.
I use to be NC20-Nc25 So OC-C is a bit dark. the Maquillage one is actually more brightening. Good to use in winter. The OC-C is suitable for summer when I get a bit more tanned.


Here's a comparison picture betweetn Maquiallage Oc10 (left) and Coffret D'or OC-C (right)
photo above taken with flash. below is taken in natural light.
As you can see OC-10 is a bit more pink/neutral tones. where as OC-C is more yellow and darker. and YAYYYY for hitting pan =P

Initial Review of the foundation:

I use it couple times. The powder is very fine. gives a more satiny finish than matte. Does have light reflective properties. Minimises the look of my pores. oil absorbing powers are not very efficient. So I suggest using in winter. if it's summer. Might not hold.

That's all I have to say for now.

have a great week guys.

[] Beauty Products of 2010 []

Hey all

Just wanted to do a post on all the things I've been loving 2010. I've seen alot of gurus on youtube have done videos on products of 2010. The best one I think is Emily, Beauty Broadcast. I love her Emily Awards. So I thought I'd do one too, just every thing combined and no skincares just make up. So here they are.

Foundations

I always use the Estee Lauders Double Wear or the Double Wear Light, Even though it's a bit thick and full coverage, I use a sponge and soak it in water then squeeze all water out and apply foundation with the sponge, it makes the foundation sheer and stay on all day. I usually use Laura Mercier Mineral powder to set the liquid foundation.

For Powder Foundation, I use the Cezanne UV EX powder foundation and the Coffret D'or Essence Powder Foundation. This is the 2009 Version. They both are great. the Cezanne one is more coverage and I use the Coffret D'or one to touch up foundation, looks more natural.

Primers

Estee Lauder Cyber White Ex, I've been using this all winter in 2010. Great sunscreen/primer because it gives great sun protection, very moisturising, none drying and it helps with my large pores. The RMK one i use in spring/autumn it has some glitter/shimmer to give that extra glow and soft focus effect. The Orbis UV Cut, I use it in Summer, because it is light and controls oil great Since i have combination skin.

Blush

Nars Deep Throat, My Go-To blush, if i'm in a hurry or don't know what to wear. I usually go for that one as you can see Hit pan already. During Winter, I used Penny Lane cream blush great colour Love it, I some times top it up with another powder blush usually DT. Another great blush I love is the Mac Stereo Rose, Limited Edition. This blush gives the most healthiest Glow and a flush of colour on the face. Flattering on Asian Skin tone too. And The last one is Mac Springsheen, a great spring/summer blush. gives your cheeks that Golden Glow.

Here's the Swatch For the Blushes.


Eye/Eyebrow Products
- Lavshuca Eyebrow Set
- Mac Beguile Brow Gel
- Too Faced Eyeshadow Insurance
- Dejavu 24/7 Liner (great pencil liner stays all day great pigmentation too)
- Mac Powerpoint liner in Duck (great for brown eyes, because it's not as harsh as black and stays all day too)
- Prestiage Water Proof eyeliner (another great staying power eyeliner)
- Kiss me Active girl mascara ( LOVE LOVE LOVE)
- Kiss me Heorine long/curl mascara

EyeShadows
LOL I find all my fav eyeshadows are Neutral.. I guess i'm a neutral fan


- Coffret D'or Shine in 01
-Stila Limited Edition eyeshadow Mazatlan
- Visee Nude Glam (N-2) Been using this one nearly every day
- Integrate Be-303 for more casual days because it's a bit more shimmery but still pretty


Lips

I don't think I'm much of a Gloss person, because it is so sticky and always feel there's something on my lips. so I usually wear lip balm and occasionally or when ever I'm going out I will wear lipstick just to be a bit more girly.

- Mac Lipgelee in Moistly ( hint of berry colour on the lips)
- Benefit La La Land ( beautiful rosey colour on Lips) paired with natural eye makeup. LOVE
- Rimmel Airy Fairy (shimmery pink)
- Mac Modesty
- Mac Blankety

Here's a swatch of Airy Fairy On my lips. A nice wearable Pink doesn't look to pink just right.


So here's the swatches for the lip products from left to right same order as listed above.


Nails
Been into nails this year, started to explore the different nail colours and brands. And here's the ones I love
- OPI barefoot in barcelona ( every day kind of colour) I wear this all the time
- Sephora by OPI metro chic, a beautiful winter colour matches with every thing you wear
- China Glaze For Audrey Pretty and fun summer colour. gives a bright and lively impression.

That's all for 2010. Just felt like 2010 went by so fast and didn't have enough time to appreciated it. Just been busy working instead should've enjoy life more.

Thats all for now. Take Cares until next post ^^

October Favourites[]~~

Hey all


Can't believe it's already november, this year went past super fast. really felt like just a blink of an eye. So today i'm just gonna share my favourite items of the months things that I have been loving this months.
Order from left to right:


1. Clinique moisturising lipgloss. I find it very similar texture to Lancome's juicy tubes, except not as sticky and more moisturising. I got this one from a gift set in the colour 01 Raspberry. I love this... gives your lips that kissable look not too over dazzling. (I don't like lipglosses have chucky glitters.) This one has no glitters and super easy application I don't need a mirror just open the lid, a slanted applicated and just apply. The colour though is not pigmented at all, just a hint of colour on your lips. LOVE~~~ wanna try other colours.







2. Benefit full cream lipstick in Lala land. I got this a while ago, but haven't really been using it because I've been using Rimmel's Airy Fairy. but this one I tried it the other day and love.. seriously my lips but better colour. looks very natural because lipstick colours like Mac Angel, Airy Fairy and that kind of pink looks sexy but not natural. You have to try lala land. I find it very moisturising too. none drying........ My next colour for this to try is No Competition, except they sold out (cry)..





3. This is a Sana make essence eye and lip concealer. Don't be fulled by its name. No coverage what so ever.. But I use it to fill in the find lines and moisturise my under eye area. It works wonders !!!! you have to try it. I apply it under my eyes before the foundation. though it does have a silicone feel to it. It says to have carrot or apple extract, aleo vera and some other stuff in japanese i can't read. It's quite mild and great for under eye area.





4. Coffret D'or beauty essence foundation. the colour is in Oc-C. quite neutral colour, and fits my NC15-20 skin perfectly. though a bit yellow. The thing i love about this foundation is because it doesn't cake up, and gives that healthy radiant glow to the face. It's got very fine shimmer in the foundation, a creamy texture not heavy at all. I should do a review on this to show how good this is. Or have I done a review already?? Though I have to agree that this is more of a winter foundation because it's moisturising. if you have dry skin.. try it. i'm sure you will love it.

5. Dolce & Gabbana Fragance Light blue. This smells DIVINE...~~~First time I spelt it in the store I was like WOW what a fresh scent. then I tried some on my skin. after a while the fresh citrius smell is gone leaves a more floral scent. very summery...... LOVE it.

And last, This was when I was out feeding a pond of fish with bread and asked my bf if he wanted some bread too. LOL........ " would you like some bread??" what a random photo.

Take cares ~~~~ will update soon.

Coffret D'or CM eyes & FOTD

Hi ALL ~~~

Seems like I haven't been updating this blog for a LONG time. I'm sorry. I am trying to find a place to live closer to University so I don't have to spend 1 to 1.5 hour of travelling each way every day.

That's aside, Haul time ~~ LOL I got the Coffret D'or Colour Mixing eye shadow pallete. It was released a while back, A summer orientated pallete. well Summer is approaching in Australia. So I thought might as well =D.

I Picked the colour #1. because it reminds me of the golden beach, the bright sun light. (sound so cheesy). But it is a pretty pallete. shimmery, but not like CHUNKY glitter falling off. But fine silvery particles. I also got the Majorlica Majorca's Honey lip gloss. in BE 211. A pretty shimmery beige colour. Quite moisturising. doesn't feel sticky, but it is a bit thick when it comes out of the tube.

Below: Coffret D'or CM eyes in #1
