FOTD Oct 2 Saturday Chill look

Hey everyone!  Its been a while since I've posted since school and life has been super busy (the usual, sigh).  Heres a neutral look for grocery shopping or hanging out with friends.

I used the Lavshuca Melting Eyes in RD-1, and a brown liquid liner from Creer Beaute La Rose de Versaille for a more natural look.

On my cheeks I used the Jill Stuart Blush Blossom in 01 romantic sweet pea, and just carmex lip ointment on my lips.

FOTD August 11 using all my new products! =)

I tried out a few of the items I bought in Hong Kong today even though I'm not going out or anything lol.  I just really wanted to test these out!!

Ok, firstly the Jill Stuart blush blossom smells soooo good.  When I went to put it on this morning the first thing I noticed was how good it smelled!!  BUT, I applied too much of the darker shade at first and it took forever for me to tone the colour back down.

So the Pro's about this new blush is that: it smells amazing, it looks really natural( not chalky, even when I over applied), and its really pigmented.

The Con's about this blush is that: its very easy to over apply since its so pigmented.

The next product is the Lavshuca Gradation Colour Eyes in BR-2.  I love this colour because it looks very sophisticated and neutral, so its easy to match with everything.  Its also super pigmented and easy to blend.  Andd, its not expensive at all!!  I checked the prices on Adam's Beauty, and its identical to the prices I saw in Hong Kong, so you're not over paying if you order from overseas!! =)

Lastly is the Dolly Wink Liquid Eyeliner,  and I really love this liquid eyeliner! The tip is very easy to maneuver  so you won't draw too thick of a line or anything.  I would really recommend this to people who are just starting to learn how to use liquid eye liner.

Well thats it for now!  More reviews to come as soon as I've gotten over this jetlag!! >.<

New Jill Stuart Blush

Blush Collection + Reviews

As I had said in my previous post, I'm going to review the blushes I got from Adam's Beauty and show everyone all the blushes I have.

First I'll start off with the most expensive one I got, which is the Jill Stuart one in 02 rose bloom.  Its also my favourite out of all the blushes I got! =)

This is my favourite blush because it gives a very nice light flush of color, I also like blushes that give a more cool pink because I look nicer with cool colors and its usually hard for me to find cool pink blushes, so I`m very happy that Jill Stuart has this color.  I also find that with this blush, its very easy to control how much you've put on, and its hard to overdo your blush using this.  The brush that comes with it is also super soft and dense, and I just use it for applying my Jill Stuart blush so that different blush colors don`t mix.

My next favourite out of the 3 that I got is the Maquillage Face Creator in 11.

I love this blush palette mainly because of the contour color.  Before I got this palette, I used to use the bronzer from Rimmel, but I didn't like it because I found that the bronzer looked too yellowy for my liking.  I have really pale skin that doesn't really have a yellow undertone even though I'm asian, my skin actually has more of a pink undertone so when I used the bronzer, it didn't really match my skin and it was very obvious that I was contouring.  But with this new contour color, it looks more natural and its not as obvious when I do contour.
My second favourite part of this palette is the highlighter.  Since I've been getting only 4 hours of sleep every night for 2 weeks (because of non stop midterms and assignments), I have severe dark circles and bags under my eyes, and the only thing that kept me looking nice was using highlighter under my eyes.  My roomate even said I've been looking nicer these days even though I get no sleep and I think its because of the highlighter.
I haven't really used the other colors in this pallet much though, because I don't really use bronzer, and I've been using the blush from Jill Stuart so I haven't used the blush color in this palette.

Lastly, I will talk about the Coffret D'or blush in PK-25.

This is a really nice blush and I love the little brush that it comes with and the packaging is AMAZING.  The packaging is clean and pretty and I love how there's a separate compartment for the brush and how the blush doesn't all spill out because there's a "protector thing" that keeps the powder in.  The inside of the cap is also a mirror, which I thought was pretty cool.
The only reason why I didn't like this blush as much was because I thought it was a lighter pink than it actually turned out to be.  The color came out very similar to the mineralized blush dainty from MAC, so I was kinda sad that I ended up having duplicates of the same color.

In addition to the 3 new blushes I got from Adam's Beauty, here is the rest of my blush collection.

This blush was a limited edition blush from Loreal, and as you can see I've used up all of one side since I loved it soooo much.  I still have to finish up the other side, which is the highlighter, and the highlighter is really good too.  It gives the same effect as the highlighter from the Maquillage blush palette.

This is the Dior Show Powder in 002 girly pink.  It doesn't give off much color, but it does add a nice shimmer/ sparkle to the face.

Next is the Rimmel blush in Santa Rose, its more of a peachy color, so I don't use it as much because I like pinks, but I still use it sometimes when I want a peachy glow.

This is a blush from Majolica Majorca in PK333, and this was the default blush that I used to use everyday before I had the Jill Stuart blush.

And lastly, from MAC, the mineralize blush in dainty, I like to use this blush on my extra pale days, where I look like a ghost because I've had no sleep and all color is drained from my face, and this blush makes me look awake and healthy again. lol

And that is my whole blush collection, I don't have too much since I like to use one color and stick to it and I don't like having duplicates.  I hope you all enjoyed this review! =)

My next post will probably be a eye shadow collection so stay tuned for it! =)

First Adam's Beauty Haul! =)

So I placed my order from Adam's Beauty on Feb 10, and my package arrived on the 22nd!!!!  This was pretty surprising since I thought it would take at least 2-3 weeks for it to get here, but it got here so fast!!!  AND, since I live in Canada, I thought it would take even longer for it to get here because when I order from the US, it usually takes at least 2 weeks for it to get to me.  Therefore, I am very impressed with Adam's Beauty and will definitely be ordering from them again (which won't be for a while since I'm broke now =P).
Here is what I got

Jill Stuart Mix Blush Compact in 02 rose bloom

Maquillage Face Creator (3D) Case

Maquillage Face Creator (3D) in *11

Coffret D'or IC Blush in PK-25

Everything taken out! =)
I'll do detailed reviews on them later.
