Revlon ColorStay Foundation & Super Lustrous Lipstick | Review and Demo

Tuesday, December 29, 2015


Updated 29 Dec 2015 - New photos! I have decided to do a demo on this old favourite of mine.

I got this in the shade 200 Nude. I can't remember the exact price, but it should be retailing at around S$30. Watsons always has sales going on so I would suggest getting it during sales period instead. I grabbed a brand new bottle just yesterday at Watsons and they are having a 50% off for this range of foundations.

Zoeva | Rose Golden Vol. 2 Luxury Brush Set

Monday, December 21, 2015

As promised, I'm back with a second review on the Zoeva brushes - Rose Golden Vol. 2 Luxury Brush Set. Go check out my previous post on the Classic Face Set and 231 Petit Crease Brush review here. This set comes with 8 brushes - 3 face brushes and 5 eye brushes. You can get this on BeautyBay.com (linked above) with free shipping for S$125.90. If you are a beginner with makeup and looking for a complete starter brush set, do check out Zoeva's selection of brush sets. The quality of these brushes are better than Sigma in my opinion. Worth investing in. I did buy another 3 brushes from them and will include them in a future post soon - 101 Luxe Face Definer, 222 Luxe All Over Shader, 227 Luxe Soft Definer.

L'Oréal Infallible Eye Shadows Review and Swatches

Sunday, December 20, 2015

The L'oreal Infallible eye shadows has got to be one of the best drugstore shadows around! The pigmentation and quality of it is insane. I have only 3 shades in this line - 888 Iced Latte, 892 Amber Rush, 890 Bronzed Taupe. These unfortunately are no longer available in stores in Singapore. However you can still find them on Carousell. I paid around S$10 for each shadow. Alternatively, do try Target.com as they recently started shipping to Singapore! I did want to do a small order but few of the items I wanted wasn't available for shipping over here.

Zoeva | Cocoa Blend Palette | Review and Swatches

Wednesday, December 16, 2015

Back with another palette for review - Zoeva Cocoa Blend Palette. 10 eyeshadows inspired by chocolates. It came in a little sleeve like this, very similar to how a box of chocolate would have been packaged. I love how compact the palette is. With a price tag of S$32, I really do recommend this palette as it is value for money and travel friendly. I am also looking at getting their Rose Gold Palette as well. The colours are amazing!

Ofra | Miami Fever by KathleenLights

Monday, December 14, 2015

The Ofra Long Lasting Liquid Lipsticks are the most comfortable liquid lipsticks that I have tried so far. The Sephora cream lip stain and The Balm Meet Matte Hughes are very similar moussey formula. I have done a collective lip swatch of various liquid lipsticks including those mentioned above. Go take a look at them here.

Anastasia Beverly Hills | Liquid Lipstick in Dusty Rose

Friday, December 11, 2015

Back with another review and lip swatch post! This is my first liquid lipstick from the brand ABH. It is quite pricey so I order only one shade to try out and it is their newer fall colour - Dusty Rose. I can't seem to find this on their website. I got it off Carousell (as per usual), for S$35 with free normal postage. This shade seems to be sold out all the time! I did found some dupes online that are more accessible options.

Becca | Backlight Priming Filter Review

Thursday, December 10, 2015

Decided to get the Becca Backlight Priming Filter off the recommendations from a few YouTubers - Kathleen, Tati, Jaclyn etc. This is a luminous primer that is suppose to give you a lit-from-within healthy glow and at the same time blurring imperfections. Hence the name 'filter', because apparently this primer gives you an instant filter. How nice. Who doesn't want that!

Realise I was able to capture the true colours of almost all of them! Quality of the photos are a lot nicer as well. **No filters on the photos, all I did was using Photoshop's Dodge Tool to brighten area around the lips to make my photos look less dull, did not touch the lip colour :) so what you see is what I got from my camera! I did add in one extra lippie - Sephora Cream Lip Stain 01 Always Red.

14 Nov '15- SO MUCH LOVE FOR MATTE LIPPIES! I got mine on Carousell and I will list the prices I got them for. Let's begin with the lip swatches!!

Colourpop Ultra Matte Lip Review and Swatches

Tuesday, December 8, 2015


17 Jun '16  - Updated and replaced all lip swatches as I got a new ring light. As you can see only Mars and Clueless are not updated as I have already passed those two shades on.

23 Jan '16 - Updated with Clueless.

8 Oct '15 - My poor lips. After swatching only 6-7 liquid lipsticks, I already can't seem to feel them. No idea how some of the YouTubers can do 20 over colours.

Becca x Jaclyn Hill Champagne Glow Palette | Review and Swatches

Monday, December 7, 2015

Becca came out with their 2015 holiday palettes, one of which featuring 3 of their Shimmering Skin Perfectors - Pearl, Champagne Pop, Blushed Copper. Inspired by Jaclyn's highlight, they named this Champagne Glow. The packaging of course, is also in a champagne gold. I took the plunge and got it. I already own quite a few highlighters and nobody actually finish up a whole pan of highlighter. But sooo many raves have been surrounding their shimmering skin perfectors, so i decided to to just get their palette and try out a few shades at once.

Colourpop Mini Haul

Saturday, December 5, 2015

More Colourpop stuff. Can't enough of these creamy shadows. I grabbed two of their new cream gel liners as well. I didn't get the pots as I don't see myself using them. Too lazy for gel liners. Before starting on the haul, I actually did a comparison of the 4 popular shadows from Colourpop - La la vs Sequin and Game Face vs Kathleenlights.

NARS Audacious Lipstick | Anita & Natalie

Tuesday, December 1, 2015

Need I say more about this lipstick. This is one of the best, if not the best lipstick in the market. Liquid lipsticks aside, the lasting power of the NARS Audacious lipsticks is one of the best. They are so pigmented and opaque that despite the transfer through drinking and snacking, it lasts. I guess that's because it slightly stain the lips for the darker colours. These lipsticks are so creamy and glides on like a dream, but I do recommend exfoliating your lips before applying. Although not as bad as normal lipsticks, but I do see that it can cling on to dry patches on my lips.

I own two of them - Anita and Natalie. They retail for S$43 in selected Sephora stores, Orchard TANGS, Heeren Robinsons. Yes, das expensive. But I do feel that it's worth every penny. The quality of the product and sleek packaging - with magnetic closure. You get what you pay for with this a 100%.
