Product Review: Shiseido Perfect Refining Foundation

Earlier, I mentioned about the new Shiseido Perfect Refining Foundation (click here).

I haven't had much experience with makeup line produced by Asian companies, in this case, a Japanese company. I received a sample of the Shiseido Perfect Refining foundation in #O40 Natural Fair Ochre few weeks ago, so here's my thoughts on it...

THE VERDICT

I went to Sogo recently to have a look at the foundation and was surprised to see that the packaging looked rather small for a RM130 worth of product. Relief came when I flipped the foundation and saw that this little container actuals holds up 30ml of the foundation. To be honest, I actually walked up to the nearest Lancome counter to double check whether 30ml is an appropriate amount of foundation. Heh.

Announcing the Opening of Sephora at Starhill Gallery, KL

Yes my darlings....Sephora is finally here!
Opposite Pavillion....ain't that wonderful!

Gone are the days we wait patiently for our precious parcels from United States
Gone are the days we participate in sprees and we crazily punch in numbers calculating the price after the exchange rate
Gone are the days we admire and envy beauty products from far cause it's not available in Malaysia and you dare not purchase it for fear of getting the wrong color cause you can't test the colors out! T_T

All hail....SEPHORA....

I received an email inviting me to their opening on the 28 April 2011 at 12.30pm.
Unfortunately, *sobs* I had this super duper important meeting scheduled at 12.00pm so I had to pass.
I did however, asked around if any of my friends will be heading to Sephora and sadly everyone was too busy....

However, finally I managed to pay a short visit last weekend so here's some pictures I took (yes, via my 'super' handphone :P)
