My Latest MakeUp Haul July 2011

Heyy....

Howz your week going so far? Mine's great! cause both my CEO and my boss are not around today. Weehooo.....!

I was MIA last month and during that phase I did buy a LOT of cosmetic in between. Like I said, I might not be blogging but my insatiable desire for cosmetic goodies goes on....

I didn't really take a picture of all the things I bought, nor can I recall some of the things I bought. So, here's the latest I purchased thus far.

The story goes....I was looking high and low for a good foundation and I stumbled upon a Vlog reviewing the Laura Mercier Silk Creme foundation. But a few days before that, during my visit to KLCC I happened to try the new Guerlain Lingerie de Peau and fell in love with its texture.

So, I was torn between the two foundations. Hmmm...

I finally made up my mind, I'm getting the Guerlain foundation mainly because I've tested it and loved it. So off I went to the Gardens, Mid Valley since the two brands are available at each ends of the shopping complex. Laura Mercier at Robinson's and Guerlain at Isetan. At least, if I changed my mind...I can still get the other, no? Smart thinking...ha-ha-ha. Ya, ya...I know it's NOT rocket science. :P

I was super excited (everytime before any expensive purchase) and once I was at the Guerlain counter, I was dissapointed by the treatment given to me by the Guerlain staff. She was rather lethargic, not warm and friendly and certainly wasn't helpful AT ALL and I would say...she seems not interested with my business. Macam nak tak nak layan je! Pfftt....

My Makeup Haul of the Week 200311

This week's haul is from TheFaceShop - a Korean beauty manufacturer.

I was window-shopping (miserably failed) in Sunway Pyramid when I saw the big SALE sign in The Face Shop. I was browsing it's newly launched Sun Block when I saw that the makeup was on sale. To be honest, I've never fancied Korean and Taiwan beauty products as they do not go well with my skin.

But the instant I dab my fingers on The Face Shop's eyeshadow, I was hooked! Infact, I was surprised at how pigmented it was!

Prior to today, the only product I own from The Face Shop is a Coral blusher which was given to me as a present from my pal. The color range may not be as extensive as compared to MAC, Bobbi Brown etc. but they have a decent collection of shimmery pastels.

What I love the most about their shimmery e/s is the texture which is very fine and this means these colors will sit nicely on your eyelids all day long without you having to touch up by mid day. (Tried & tested *winks*)

My Stash from TheFaceShop :)

My Makeup Haul of the Week 110311

My haul of the week.....

Since time is very limited to me these days...I don't have much time to browse for goodies like I used to couple of weeks back. However, here's some stuff I managed to grab today at Watsons during my lunch break (the only time I'm free T_T) except for my MAC Opulash.

1) M.A.C Wonder Woman Collection Opulash in Army of Amazons

Retail Price: RM65.00

Got it for: RM65.00

What is: Green mascara that thickens and lengthens. Two coats should do the trick. Oh, look at the rich green color...heart it!

Remember to swatch the colors onto your skin to determine which red suits you most.
For me, I prefer a blue based red lipstick to compliment my skin (left most).
Yellow based red lipstick is not my color (center).
