The Good and The Forbidden

LoTW: Make Up Store Lipstick Pen Bubblegum

October 22, 2014

I bet most of us have experienced this before: going to a store to get a certain product and walked out with something completely different. Yep, that’s what happened to me not too long ago, for the n-th time.

I was looking to get Make Up Store Microshadow in Masai, thanks to Karima’s stellar reviews. I finally found the time to visit the counter and when I swatched the product, I kind of lost interest. The product is beautiful, don’t get me wrong, it’s just that I rarely contour. And I was much more interested in getting Kevyn Aucoin Sculpting Powder Medium (which I just got a few days ago). I thought that I could always go back to get it since it’s available locally anyway.

Just as I was walking out the counter, I remembered that I had seen pictures of the Lipstick Pen before and wanted to try them. So, I went for for a quick look, picked up one that caught my eye instantly, swatched it, went gaga over it and once I knew the price tag, I went straight to the cashier.

LoTW: Burberry Lip Velvet Bright Poppy

October 8, 2014

I love my Burberry Lip Covers and I wear them a lot. They are my go-to lipsticks. It has been about a couple of years since Burberry Beauty launched the Lip Velvet collection. While I initially got really excited about these, turned out, I never got around to get them! Blame the never-ending lemmings. Well, I finally did and this will be my first review.

Red on Red Tonal Look

September 29, 2014

I’m seeing a lot of red this season. A lot of red on the eyes. I’ve even mentioned the uncanny resemblance here and I had an idea of my interpretation. The inspiration, first and foremost, was by ADDICTION by Ayako. The brand released a Fall Winter 2014 Collection called Tokyo Story. And at almost the same time, the brand releases a limited-edition eyeshadow palette to celebrate its 5th Anniversary.

I mean, come on, how can I not resist that?! Well, I did resist buying it because the neutrals look way too similar to my ADDICTION Sugar Rusk palette and I can’t be bothered by buying something so similar, even if it’s limited edition. Lipsticks, however, are a completely different matter, though :p

I am not ready for an eye-searing red eyeshadow. I am, however, ready for red eyeliners. Now, I should underline it first that you should never try this at home*.

Wishlist: Lipstick Queen Velvet Rope Lipsticks

September 19, 2014

I think I knew that I’m going to have a serious addiction with red lipsticks the moment I bought my first. There are just tons of reasons why I love these red pouts. That being said though, I do not just buy all the reds that I see. I handpicked them carefully. It’s a curated collection. Well, it applies to all of my lipsticks really, but I’m more selective when it comes to reds. Extra selective.

BASIC SKINCARE ROUTINE

Cleanse – Hydrate – Moisturize – Protect (SPF)

Sunscreen at daytime, always.
Double Cleanse at night, a must!

Exfoliate regularly, as necessary, and don’t overdo it.
Don’t forget to use a Hydrating Toner after Exfoliating Acid Toner to prevent dryness and irritation.

Opt for calming and soothing products more than anything else. Pick gentle cleansers. Aim for hydration and moisture. Maintain the skin barrier.

Proper hydration and balanced moisturization are key to achieving a healthy skin, even if your skin is oily.

Always be gentle on your skin.

This could be the year for @lancomeofficial as the This could be the year for @lancomeofficial as the brand has been releasing great products with stellar formulations lately! After the Rénergie Triple Serum success on me, the Rénergie HPN Cream really becomes the cherry on top 🍒

I’ve been using it for the past couple of months, day and night. It doesn’t take long for me to fall in love with it. The first thing that I noticed is the increase plumpness and firmness on the cheeks down - which is always a good sign in my book. As I go into my 30s, I do notice a decrease in hydration and slight loss of volume. So a product like this will always be appreciated. When I combine the Rénergie Triple Serum and HPN Cream together, I really get a dynamic duo. The brightening, even skin tone is more highlighted.

The texture may look quite thick from the outside, but after blending it into the skin, it has a nice balance of hydration and moisture while still manages to be quite lightweight. I apply a bit more during nighttime or finish off with a sleeping mask for enhanced moisture.

I also think it goes well with other products too, don’t really have to think about ingredients clashing, because it’s a friendly 👌🏼 If you’re like me nowadays and prefer for a quick routine yet still deliver experience and results, put this cream on your wishlist! Stat!

663/1000 - what a humbling honor to be a part of t 663/1000 - what a humbling honor to be a part of the grand launch of The Ultimate S Cream with the special display box.

I am obsessed with the design details. An homage to the historical Korean moon jar, representing the richness and wholesomeness of the moon itself. Clean cuts. Soft, smooth matte to the touch. 

Sulwhasoo’s recent rebranding possesses a look that marriage heritage and modernity. Cleaner facade yet still with shapes & lines of the bottles and jars that remind you of the old times. A representation of the brand’s philosophy in combining heritage, art and innovation.

I don’t like to play favorites, because I think I don’t like to play favorites, because I think every product that I like has its own merits and place in my routine. But, there are certain brands and products that I just keep getting back to. 

@sulwhasoo.indonesia is one of the few. The First Care Activating Serum is indeed the first product that I tell everyone to try if you want to dive into this brand. The 6th Gen indeed boasts newer technology, Sulwhasoo Master Complex™️. And for the first time, there’s Ginseng active in it! It cares for the skin’s inherent ability to renew and take care of itself. It really is a great booster serum!

Gentle Cleansing Foam - if you haven’t tried this, you should. I only need very little for each use, it lasts quite a really long time. If you need a first cleanser, pair it with Gentle Cleansing Oil too. Just like the name, they’re gentle and don’t strip my skin afterwards. The scent? Heavenly.

White Ginseng Radiance Mask - can be used as a facial scrub and mask at one go. The combination of herbals and soft particles soften the skin surface. It’s a type of mask that I will use while I’m showering, so I can wash it off altogether.

If you’re like me and you just want to swim yourself in a luxurious cream, Concentrated Ginseng Renewing Cream should be on the wishlist. I do think this help with “filling” the pockets of my skin, making it denser and firmer. Just apply and enjoy the experience, really! ☺️
