♥ September Favorites ♥

Hi everyone

It is the time of the month again

Kinda hard to believe that september finally pass us and now it is October

Meaning only 3 more months before the end of 2014

Time is surely gone by faster than i thought this year ><

Nonetheless let's jump to this month favorites xD.

 

 

Etude House Good Bye Pore Ever Primer

 

New primer ! Yeay

Been using this stuff for whole month

Well i could quite say i like it since it helps with my oily skin quite a bit

It makes my skin more smooth and not too oily during the day

But for the pore reduce or invisible kind of thing, it is not helping whatsoever

But still i like it because it prevent my face to looking very greasy by the end of the day :)

 

3CE Highlight Beam

 

Well i've been digging the whole lifted and nicely highlighted cheek bones

So i try this one since this product already sitting on the pile of makeup i have and never give it a try before.

It slightly pink color but the color doesn't reduce the goodness of this product

I find it really nice to use since it is a liquid highlighter and the texture is nice and give very subtle look

So far really enjoying this one so much

 

Clinique Cheek Pop in shade Berry Pop

 

First thing first, let's adore the super beautiful packaging

I'm so into this kind of thing since it really pretty

But don't be wrong, it is not always usual that pretty packaging mean worst quality product cause this blush is amazing !!!

Love how pigmented this blush is, the texture is kinda unique too

When you touch it from the pan, it slightly has those creamy feeling but it is not cause it is turn to be a powder

And another good thing about it, is that this blush is so long lasting

Probably do to the unique texture of it

 

YSL Rouge Pur Couture shade 52 Rosy Coral

 

You probably see this coming already

I love it so much !!!!

Ever since i got it i never stop wearing it, like EVERY SINGLE DAY !!!

So crazy

The color is just suits me perfectly, the formulation is beyond word (all YSL lippies are amazing)

Just freaking love it so much

No need more explanation xD

 

Lavie Lash in Rosie

 

I never mention it before but i'm such big lover of Lavie Lash lashes

I really like this brand of faux lashes cause i find it more easy to use, very comfortable to wear (some lashes usually feel uncomfortable to wear) and you can basically use it up to 6-8 times if you clean them properly.

I really like this type call Rosie cause it is very natural, almost like my own lashes but definitely better

This type is perfect for everyday use too cause people will not notice whatsoever if you put some false lashes, very very natural :)

You can get this lashes from their website www.lavielash.com

Go check them out xD.

 

Sigma Tightline Brush

 

Mostly i like to tightline my eyes since i found it helps to define my eyes even better and not make them looks smaller

But tightline with gel liner is a little bit harder to do

But ever since i got this brush, it makes tightline even more easy !!!

The brush is soft to go into the sensitive are on eyes and definitely perfect for do tightline.

So if you want to try tightline with gel liner, probably should get this brush cause it is amazing

 

So that's all for my September favorites guys

Hope you enjoy my post

See ya

Simple Eye Makeup and Coral Lip Tutorial

Hey my fellow readers

As promise in my haul post, today i'm gonna show you guys how i do my makeup using this YSL Lipstick i just got.

Love this lipstick so much since it's remind me the look of Cheon Song Yi

But i'm not gonna recreate Cheon Song Yi look

Honestly, i'm not good to recreate people looks

So today i'm just gonna show you how i do it base on what i think best for myself.

xoxo

 

 

Soooo this is the look i create.

Just simple eye makeup to balance the bold coral-ly lipstick

I really like the way this lipstick show on my lips so much ^.^

 

The products i use to achieve this look are 

 

Foundation : Chanel Perfection Lumiere Velvet in shade B10

Eye : Urban Decay Naked Pallete using only shade Naked and Buck

3CE Creamy Waterproof Eyeliner in Zorro

Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler

Maybelline Rocket Volume Express Mascara

Anastasia Dipbrow Pomade in Chocolate

Cheek : Clinique Cheek Pop in shade 03 Berry Pop

Lip : YSL Rouge Pur Couture in shade 52 Rosy Coral

 

So for the tutorial i'm just gonna show you guys only the picture how i do the eye look since i think that is the part that need a little bit more than just an explanation.

 

First of course i start with applying my foundation using a beauty blender.

In the look i don't use concelear since i using two layer of this foundation to make it has more coverage.

Then, into the eyes

 

 

 I start with applying Naked (a light brown color) all over the lid, then i take Buck (a medium brown color) using a blending brush, brush Buck into the crease to make it more define.

Then i'm taking my eyeliner and only tightline my eyes.

Tightlining will help make your lashes appear more full and just give a nice settle eyeline without looking too much.

 



 

Next gonna curl those lashes and apply a generous amount of mascara xD.

 

Now for the brow

I'm using my trusty Anastasia dipbrow pomade that really good for humid weather.

Trust me, this brow pomade will not budge whatsoever !

 

Start with lining the bottom line of your brow first to make it really define

Then using the spooley, brush it upward to make it more natural and look like your own brow hair.

Brush over until you feel like it become more natural looking.

Next line the upper line of your brow with what left on your brush then brush over again so the line will not appear unnatural.

After that you can get your natural looking crisp brow xD

( This is the method i find the best to make my brow looks more natural ).

 

And last step just put your blush on the apple of your cheek and slap on the lipstick on your lips

That's it !!!

Quiet simple and quick makeup

 

 

Hope you enjoy my first tutorial

If it's hard to understand feel free to ask me ^.^

My Skin Care Routine

Hi guys

I'm back today with a post about my recent skin care routine.

In my last post i mention that my skin had struggle with acne over almost a year

That's why today i'm gonna share with you guys my skin care routine that so far helping me fighting with my acne state.

Are you ready ? :D

First we gonna start with morning skin care routine

As i mention before, i try to make my skin care routine very simple especially in the morning because i don't have enough time to wait for my skin care to absorb before i layer another product.

That's why my morning skin care is so simple compare to my night time skin care routine.

After i wash my face with my facial foam (which is currently Etude House AC Clinic Facial Foam) i start with toner first. My current favorite toner is Etude House Wonder Pore. I really like this toner cause i found that it's not over drying my skin which some of toner might do.

After my toner is quite dry already, i use my Avene Facial Spray.

I really like this facial spray so much cause it helps calm down the redness on my face.

Super recommended even tho it's a little bit pricey but it's definitely worth my money :).

After i can't feel anymore water on my face (after the facial spray) i move on to use my serum which is my SK II whitening spot specialist.

To be honest, i don't quite fond of this serum cause i don't feel it do me any good at all

But because of the price i decided to just use it so i don't waste my money ><.

I wait for about 3 to 5 min and the i use my favorite cream which is Benton Steam Cream.

I really like this cream cause i feel that this cream help me reduce my whitehead which really bothering me so much. A little advice, don't use it too much at a time. you just need a tiny bit amount on your whole face.

This cream is a very strong formulation cream so don't over use it.

Move on to my night skin care routine

Just like the morning routine, after wash my face i start with toner and my facial spray (the same as in the morning routine).

Then i go using my serum which is the famous OST Pure Vitamin C Serum

Super duper in love with this serum (It's my third bottle already !!!)

This serum change my life so much as i would like to say it works better than any other serum i ever use !

At first i use it in my morning skin care routine too but i found that it do me no good so i start using it at night and the magic start to work out.

It helps me reduce my acne scar, it brightens my face and it do help the pimple shrink very quickly.

Super recommended !!!!

After this serum, it is a must to use a moisturizer cause this serum make the skin quite drying.

The moisturizer i use is my Shiseido Pureness Moisturizer.

It's a perfect one for me cause its oil free and so far it done its job nicely.

Some moisturizer tend to feel greasy but this one is just super nice and leave my skin moisturize without the greasiness. Love it ♥

After that i use my ciracle red spot cream which is a new thing to my routine but so far it gives a nice result on my face.

I really like it cause it help with my redness and another extra point, it helps reduce the appearance of my scar ( You can get the OST Serum and Ciracle Red Spot Cream at Wishtrend)

And the very last thing, i will use my eye cream.

My current eye cream is the Clinique All About Eyes Rich

For me the formulation of this eye cream is too thick (i bought the wrong type ><) thats why i'm only using it at night cause i find that when i try use it both morning and night it tend to make millia on my eyes which is not good at all.

So far for the result, it helps reduce my puffy eyes but i still don't see any extreme result on my dark circle ><

I have something extra for my skin care which is i called " The Pimple Situation"

LOL

There are times in a month i get a PMS pimple which is not good at all

I tend to pick them and make a hell of a scar on my face

So this product quite helping me shrink the pimple faster than it normally do.

The SK II Stempower

Some of people might use this for a whole face cream

For me, it do a hell of a job as a spot cream (for my pimple)

Whenever i just had a pimple, i just put this on the spot and it helps the pimple to shrink faster than usual.

A little goes a long way ~

Mario Badescu Buffering Lotion and Drying Lotion

Have you ever suffer from very stubborn acne?

I do

But after i find this two perfect combo i barely suffer from it again.

This stuff do a perfect job on cystic acne or even super stubborn one that don't want to shrink at all

 Just dab the buffering lotion first on the spot then set it to dry a little bit

Then you move on to pick the pink lotion on the drying lotion and dab in on your stubborn pimple and just go to sleep.

You'll wake up with reduce size of acne and by the next day it will go away.

Loving this stuff so far ( you can get it at Luxola )

So that's all of my skin care routine.

So far this routine works nicely on me and FYI i have an oily - combination skin so i don't know if it will work out for other people with other condition.

It means that it probably not suitable for all  people 

I just hope you guys can find the skin care that will work for you too

Good Luck

xoxo
