Hello! not gonna have a long intro, this post is basically, My 2011 favorites! On the basis of Make up & Beauty Products of course. Not all the products are in this shot as i missed some out but they're all clearly explained down below with swatches & descriptions. So continue reading for more details on them! GOGOGO!^^
Juicy Couture -Viva la Juicy perfume. I never liked perfume or people who wore perfume as it made me queasy, but ever since i tried this scent on i have been spraying it on myself every single day.
Bobbi Brown concealer in Honey (on the left) & Bobbi Brown concealer in Warm Natural (on the right). I had the one on the left first as a gift form my mom last christmas, but i ran out &asked for it as birthday present from my godbrother but in a lighter shade. Works wonders & conceals everything that needs to be concealed.
MAC Gel Liner in Blacktrack. Been loving this, very pigmented, doesn't dry up like other gel liners at all & lasts super long without smudging.
Revlon Colourstay Foundation in Sand Beige & Revlon PhotoReady Two way Powder Foudation. I use the liquid one for more coverage as it gives flawless & great coverage. I use the power one for lazy days or when i feel like wearing minimal makeup.
Sephora Lipstick in Rouge21. A very pigmented Nudy rose. I use this lip color everyday as i find it goes with any eye make up look i have on.
This is a great dupe for the sephora one which i've just found recently. As the sephora one is slightly more on the pricey side, i feel having a cheaper dupe is good. Rimmel London in the shade 050 have fun.
Urban Decay's 24/7 Glide-On pencil in Zero. My favorite pencil eyeliner. Its SUPER pigmented, you can check out theirs swatches online. Plus it glides on very smoothly & lasts really long.
Clinique's Lash Doubling Mascara in black. I have been loving this mascara since the day i got it. But the saddest thing is, its been discontinued. FML. I needa go & find a good dupe for this. It really doubles the volume of my lashes, makes my lashes appear as if i have false lashes on, separates them & has no clumps at all. Love it to death.
Sephora Smoothing face primer, i use this to prep my skin before i apply liquid foundation. To fill in all the fine lines & pores to prevent my foundation from slipping & sliding and showing any flakiness or enhance my pores.
Sephora Bonzer in Medium. It helps contour my face flawlessly. This shade goes very well with my NC35 skin.
Urban Deacy's Naked Palette. This is my everyday, go-to palette. It has both matte & shimmer shadows, very pigmented & lasts really long. You can do looks that range from a simple neutral brown eye to a glam & sophisticated dark smokey eye. All with one palette! I swear by this palette & it is my makeup Holygrail. Can't wait to get The Naked2 Palette!
Urban Decay Primer potion. I got the small travel size one free as it came with the Naked palette. I tried it out & loved it so much i asked for the full size one for Christmas. It really helps my shadows stay on all day long & makes them pop!
MAC Studio fix Liquid foundation & Sheer Pressed Powder in NC35. Got them both for Christmas from my mommy & have been loving them since!
My FreshKon Alluring eyes contacts in Magnetic Grey. They look really natural on my eyes. They're really comfortable & don't irritate my eyes at all, unlike many other contacts i've tried.
Bioré Pore Pack. It effectively removes Blackheads & has a pore tightening formulation. Im just typing off the packaging haha. It just helps clear my clogged pores & remove blackheads & sebum. Use it once to twice a week. It really helps maintain my skin in the state it currently is in.
Nexcare Acne Patch for ladies. I use this on top of my acnes when i go to bed & when i wake up in the morning, it's like BOOM! they don't disappear of course, but it shrinks at least half its size. It comes in several shapes & sizes. Comes in the Guys one as well.
Faceshop's Rice water Bright Cleansing foam. it has rice water in its formula which helps brighten your skin. Been loving this product. Got it last christmas from my aunt & i loved it so much i re-purchased it. Even better, when i went to Korea just last november, i decided to stock up so i went all out & got 3 of them(1 can last me about 5 months.) Cos it was much cheaper in korea. Best buy there:>
Victoria Secret's Refreshing Body Mist in Pure Seduction. Love this scent the most among all of their body mists. Fruity & light. Super refreshing & last quite long for an Eau de Toilette.
Faceshop's Clean Face Mild toner. It has Tea tree oil that treats oily or problem skin quickly & effectively. Also typing off the bottle. Haha, but i just recently got this from korea & i've been using it every Morning & Night before i go to bed. i apply it be soaking up a cotton pad & dabbing it all over my face, focusing mainly on my nose & chin as that's where i get oily most.
& Lastly, my Swisspers dual cosmetic tips. These are life savers. Like every time i make a mistake with my make that i can't just smudge away, this cotton buds do the trick. It has a flat paddle tip & pointed tip. It comes in handy when doing Manicures too!
All of these products can be found in singapore in shops like Sephora, MAC counters, Guardian, Faceshop, Watsons & the contacts can be found at any optical shop.
I'm done! Hope they were helpful & stay tuned for more posts! Take Care!
Xoxo.
