Beauty FAQ #10: Did You Know?



Q: I've forgotten my make-up bag. What's a quick pick-me-up for skin?

A: In a makeup SOS, use that lip balm floating around in your purse and dab it along the cheek bones, in the inner corner of the eye, down the middle of the nose and on your mouth to add instant luminescence.


Till then, good luck & stay flawless...

Product Review: Inglot YSM Cream Foundation

I promised a good friend of mine this review....
This is for you my dear... =)

I received some sample from Inglot during my recent visit to their brand new store in Malaysia, which is in Sunway Pyramid. I was ecstatic during my trip there, even if it was my 3rd visit by then. Still, there's nothing better than a posh, elegantly decorated beauty boutique that offers you a gazillion vibrant, wonderful colors to decorate your face.

Even describing it gives me the jitters.
I'm proud to be an addict. A makeup addict that is ^__^

I took a few pictures of their boutique.

Since the interior was mainly made of squeaky-shiny-black top, every now and then, you'll see the MUA frantically wiping these tops so they stay finger-prints free.


Beauty FAQ #9: Did You Know?


Q: Is there a quick-fix remedy for combating acne?

A: Crush an aspirin with a few drops of water and dab to the acne at bedtime. It's antibacterial and will reduce the redness.


Till then, good luck & stay flawless...

Pickup A Trend: Crimson Red

Hey beautiful...

Recently, I picked up a couple of hawt eyeshadows from Inglot. 
As I've mentioned before in my previous posts, I am deeply in love with Inglot eyeshadows because of its colors and how pigmented they are. Of course, also cause they're super affordable!!! Oh, did I mentioned that before, no?

As a person who is easily influenced by commercials and beauty blogger reviews, I picked up a couple of unique colors from Inglot based on recommendations from fellow beauty blogger cyber-pals. 

One of it is this nice, rich crimson red - #495
I hesitated at first. When on earth am I gonna use this color? It's RED, for God's sake!! 
The Malays would cringe and say 'Merah, mak ngah!'...LOL
But, I proceed to the cashiers with confidence...chewah!

Last weekend, while walking around Pavillion with my besties, Lynn and Yas, I bought this top from Forever21. Yeap, you guessed it....now, I have a reason to use that red eyeshadow from Inglot.

(perempuan senget!)



So here's the look I did...

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....
