REVIEW- BOBBI BROWN RICH COLOR GLOSS


Hewloooo!

please please do not get bored hearing me.. well reading about lip products :P

i dont know why and how i didnt do this post for this product!
i love these lip glosses when i was in Uni!
They are just the bomb for me :)

here is the Bobbi Brown Rich Color Gloss!

i wont state the price because:
- i forgot * an honest answer *
- price would be different in here :P

so the tube of this gloss is cute, the size is pretty small actually. A simple design with a transparent tube where we can see the color and make life so much easier in picking them :P
i do owned a few shades and i did tell you this is the bomb!



here are the names :)



here are the color :) and the wand


color swatches!


conclusion:
- when it says RICH COLOR GLOSS, they mean it!
- Thick and moisturizing
- Super pigmented for a gloss!
- Natural color on the lips (this is the main reason why i am obsessed with Bobbi Brown until now)
- it has a gorgeous scent that makes me think so classy and chic :)
- soft texture
-long lasting on the lips unless you wipe it.

down side:
- pricey & small (but honestly, with the quality you are getting, it is so worth it)
- i need to apply some lip balm before applying the gloss because i think it leaves a sticky residue on the lips :p some people may like this but i dont :P

will i repurchase?
- well with the amount of shades i own, i dont think i should buy more.

will i recommend this?
- yes i would! moisturizing + pigmented! 
- these products dont lie when it comes to rich color + gloss :)

REVIEW: LOREAL INFALIBLE EYESHADOW


I am pretty sure you girlies have heard of this brand before right? 
and you guys know i am not a big fan of eyeshadow.. but i bought one just to test :)

so here are the pictures,
the packaging.. i must say it is cute! never seen one like this before, it is a tiny jar.




and this is what it looks like when you take the lid off, there is a black cap to press down the eyeshadow, as the eyeshadow itself, it is not powdery, not mousse either, it is rather unique :)


the swatch of the eyeshadow,
i took this sample from the black cap that pressed the eyeshadow down, and oh boy! it is pigmented
soft and velvety texture and that is when you know it is high pigmentation.


conclusion:

- good pigmentation
- good packaging
- the packaging is hygienic for the eyeshadow with the lid that pressed tight
- price was around SGD 18 ish

the negative side:
however..  it is unhygienic for us because there is no sponge or applicator to dip the eyeshadow in :(

will i repurchase?
hmm for the price and my "not-so-really" favorism for eyeshadow... nope i wont buy it :P
but it is a good eyeshadow if you are an eyeshadow lover though :)

REVIEW: ZA TOTAL HYDRATION PORE CARE ESSENCE

Hola!

Who here suffers with big pores! i do!
It is super annoying actually, if there is a way to make my pores smaller permanently, i would do it :)
but meanwhile, i am searching for a product that can minimized my pores when i go out.

The funny thing is, i wasnt looking for pore minimizer when i purchased this particular product range from ZA :P

so i recently feel very curious on this specific product so i tested them out for you.
Here is the packaging, the tube is rather small and tiny actually but i love the color, so girly!
You need to twist the cap to open to be able to use the product.






The product inside is gel-ish to watery, so it is not that diluted as a gel but not watery either :)
it is an opaque milky color and you dont need alot of product in order to apply to your face and the best thing about this is, it is lightweight and it absorbs into the skin quick. However i am not a big fan of the scent, it smells like acne medicine :P but oh well, i always can stand scents as long as the product is good.




so here are the snapshots i took when i was testing it out :)
i apply it only on the nose and the cheeks, and i apply it on the right side (left side of the picture)









here are the pictures taken at 6.30 pm, just to see the oily control and the result :P




Conclusion:
Honestly, i dont see any differences. Or maybe it is just my eyes?
The pores are still somehow visible, but i must say it is 10% better :P which is pretty much none for me.
But i do realized that the skin is glowing with the pore minimizer on :) oh and it has a slight tiny oil control.

will i repurchase?
nope :( as i dont see a huge difference on my skin especially on the pores area.

REVIEW: KIEHL'S ACTIVELY CORRECTING & BEAUTIFYING BB CREAM


Hello!

So, you all know my obsession with foundation and bb cream hehe 

I am so happy and honored to have the privilege to try this BB Cream from Kiehl's and this BB Cream will be released somewhere in March 2013. 

well let me tested it out for you girls so you know what you will be getting :)

My skin condition:
as you all know i have a very oily T-Zone so Normal to Oily
* but i seriously think my oil level in my body is extreme haha *

so i am always on the look for a bb cream that wont break me out, that can stay long on my face around 4-6 hours and has a good coverage & light weight feeling on my skin :) so i dont feel cakey!


Here is the packaging:
When it comes to Kiehl's their designs are simple, clean and effective!
It has a white tube with some black colored writings.
The tube feels flexible and it is easy for you to squeeze the product out :)
This tube is 30ml.


When you open the cap, this is what it looks like :)


and i know the lighting isnt being helpful in this picture but this bb cream comes in 3 different shades: Light, Fair & Natural

I think mine is Fair :) This bb cream has a spf 50 :) which is very high and usually spf 50 like this will make my skin oily very quick but we shall see the process later.
The scent for this bb cream is herbal-ish so if you are not a big fan of scent, this scent might tickles your nose :P, the texture on my hand is thick due to the high spf but it blends in well quickly and dries pretty fast :) so already has a good point there!



so lets see my face after a whole day of wearing it :)

here is me wearing the bb cream at 10.30pm


here is me at 2.30pm


conclusion:

my skin gets dewy at the 4th hour :) which is pretty good although i hope it will stay like that for 6 hours though but four hours is good enough :)
and i think with one time for blotting, this bb cream can stay pretty much the whole day :)

will i buy it?
yes i actually am considering it :) seeing it with spf 50 but a lightweight & easy to absorb into the skin quality attracted my heart.
