Sleek Makeup: Storm I-Divine Palette Review

Hi sweet girls! I'm back with this awesome eyeshadow palette! x)

I got this a long time ago from a friend who went to London but I haven't had chance to review this eyeshadow palette for soooo long

Anyway this eyeshadow palette is from Sleek Makeup. I believe you guys are already very familiar with this brand since it's highly raved by beauty bloggers as well as the beauty youtubers.

I got mine in Storm I-Divine Palette. 

Here are the colors~~ x)

Overall I absolutely love these eyeshadow. I think that they are one of the best eyeshadow palette out there considering the price to be so affordable. The colors are very pigmented (as you can see on the swatches) and it last all day on my oily lids with my Urban Decay Primer Potion. There are both shimmery and matte colors eye shadow in the palette but they absolutely compliment each other very well. I definitely highly recommend this palette to anyone who is on budget but want a good quality of eye shadow.

Rating: 5/5

Recommended: YES!

I'm currently opening a spree/pre-order for Sleek makeup and other brands also on my online store (House of Younique), available this month - 10 june only.

Thanks for ready this blog post!

Take care ;)

Etude House: Juicy Cocktail Gradation Nails Review

Hi Sweety Bunnie~ :D

Today I'm gonna review this lovely trio nail polish by Etude House.

Juicy Cocktail Gradation Nail is one of the summer 2012 nail collection from Etude House.

I choose mine in color #01 Screw Driver. Basicly this trio contains 3 different shade of colors. The first one is a very sheer and glossy orange. It appears almost clear if applied only 1 coat, so you've gotta need 2-3 coats for the first color. The second color is a bit deeper orange than the first one and it contains a lot of glitters. And lastly the third color is a very deep orange with a lot of very fine shimmer in it.

As you can see on the instruction, you've gotta apply the first color first entirely on your nails. After that moving on to the second color, just apply it to the half top of the nails. Lastly apply the deepest color on 1/3 of the nails and VOILA~

See how cute it became? At first I didn't think that it would be nice since the colors are very sheer so it needs 2-3 coats on each color. It is a bit troublesome and it could be quite messy if you are not careful. But afterall I really love this nail polish and I absolutely love the color that I choose. I think that it's extremely cute and suitable for spring/summer time.

I also didn't expect that these nail polishes will be long lasting since Etude House nail polish tends to chip after 1-2 days. But these are AMAZING! I've worn this for  5 days and it doesn't chip AT ALL!!!

This is the picture of my nails after wearing this nail polish for 5 days. Please note that I didn't apply any base coat and top coat. This is absolutely amazing and highly recommended. I'm definitely gonna purchase another colors. x)

Skinfood: Facial Water Vita-C (Gel Mask) Review

Yuhuuu~~ I'm back :D

Please forgive me for being not posting anything for few weeks..

FYI I'm currently preparing for my new fashion line so things got extremely busy here :p

Anyway today's review is gonna be The Skinfood Facial Water Vita-C (Gel-Mask)

Description:

A gel-type mask that instantly fills thirsty skin with the vital hydrating energy of Vita C complex and Alaska glacier water.

This mask is effective to relieve unusual skin stimulation, irritation, and sunburn

Unlike other sheet masks, I think this is the first face mask made of gel. If you have tried The Skinfood Carrot Collage Eye Patch before then you will be able to imagine how the "gel mask" look like.

The mask is quite similiar with The Skinfood Carrot Collagen Eye Patch. I think the only difference is that this one is a lot thicker and one side forms a squarish, diamond like emboss, while the other side is just flat.

In my opinion this gel mask is indeed too thick and big, so it doesn't fit my face at all. And unlike other sheet mask which is soaked with serum, this gel mask is actually very dry. There is no serum, lotion, or whatever inside the gel mask. Although this mask claims to hydrate skin, but honestly I didn't feel anything after putting this mask on my face for around 30-40 minutes. 

This is a picture of me wearing the mask~

See? It doesn't fit at all :(

After all this mask is quite disappointing in my opinion. Although this is not the most pricey mask, but for Korean brand mask, I couldn't say that this is cheap.

If you are looking for a good sheet mask, I do not recommend this one, you should go and try My Beauty Diary mask instead. :) It is affordable and you can see the result right after application.

Holika Holika: Jewel-Light Waterproof Eyeliner Review

Hello pretty girls~!! :D

I'm sorry for not posting any review for weeks > <

I'm very busy these days because I'm going to start my own clothing line soon. So stay tuned if you want to know more about it ;)~

Anyway today I'm gonna review Holika Holika Jewel Light Waterproof Eyeliner Pencil which I purchased last month. I've been wearing these eyeliner a couple of times and I think I should let you all know how I feel about these babies~

Descriptions: Holika Holika Jewel-Light Waterproof Eyeliner is a long lasting waterproof eyeliner that stays on your eyes without smudging through sweat or sebum. Starting from the inside corner, fill in between lashes. To use as an eye shadow, draw a thick line then blend the line into the lid.

This eyeliner is available in 8 colors but I only got 3 of them.

As you can see there I got mine in color #06 Olive Peridote, #07 One Carat Diamond and #08 Pink Topaz.

All colors are sparkly and shimmery x)

These are the swatches of each color~

From left to right (#06, #07, #08)

#06 Olive Peridote is just a very dark brown (nearly black) with gold fine shimmer in it. #07 is just a shimmery white color which is good to highlight inner corners and water line. And lastly #08 is a sweet pink peachy kind of eyeliner which is also good for highlighting inner corners as well as water line.

I only do 1 swipe for each swatches, so you can see that all the colors are extremely pigmented and creamy. The texture itself is very soft and subtle. The shimmery inside gives a very beautiful glow to each eyeliner without looking over shiny.

I've worn these eyeliner for around 5 hours and honestly it doesn't smudge at all and stays on all day. So thumbs up for the long lasting. Unlike other eyeliner which doesn't glides smoothly on eyelids, these eyeliner does glides like dream~ so smooth and soft x)

I think the only thing that people won't like about these eyeliner is that it does takes a few minutes for the eyeliner to set so you've gotta keep your fingers away from your eyelid right after applying these babies.

I tried to rub it with my fingers right after I apply it, and it became like this..

Actually I couldn't say that this is a down side because it's kinda helpful when I'm doing a smokey eyes look. I can just smudge the colors out without having to put another layer of eyeshadow to give a very smokey look.

And last thing these eyeliner is indeed water proof. I tried to pour out some water to these swatches and it doesn't budge at all, which is a very very good thing.

Overall I really really LOVE these eyeliner. I think these eyeliner might be one of the best eyeliner pencil I've ever tried. The price itself is extremely affordable and for the quality of the eyeliner I think it's really worthed. I'm thinking of getting more colors perhaps the black and navy blue~  :p

Woohoo~!! Another Haul~ xD

Well who doesn't like haul? :p

Anyway today I'm gonna show you all the stuff that I bought throughout this week. And psssttt all of them is high end brand :p

I personally doesn't own a lot of high end brand, I just bought some when I have extra money. Honestly I am a huge fan of high end brand such as Make Up For Ever, Bobbi Brown, Lancome, Shiseido, Kanebo, Shu Uemura, etc because I think that a lot of their stuff is really worth their price. But because I don't have a lot of money I couldn't really buy a lot of high end products. :p

So let me just show you everything that I bought~

Ta-da~

Hahahaha yes! only 3 items~ :p I know some of you guys might think that I'm making a big fuss for just these 3 items. ;)

Well that's actually true because I've been wanting these 3 items for yearssssssssssssss~

Anyway I'm still thinking whether I should review these products or not. Because you know there are tons and tons of beauty blogger that has already reviewed this products, so I guess my review is not neccessery. :p

Anyway let me know if you want me to review these products!

Until next time, take care guys~ x)
