LOTD: Matte Neutral + Review: Bébé Poshé Dazzling Eye Pencil 01 Black Diamond

16Dec11

This was my LOTD just 2 days ago. I went for a movie date with... Chantana! She won a pair of Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows preview tix, and asked me along (thanks again!).

We both enjoyed the movie very-very much. Highly recommended to all! I laughed alot (and aloud) throughout the show :x

I rarely use matte eyeshadows. Well, it's always nice for a change yea.

Lovin' the blush color on me!

The products that I used for this look:-

*Note: Products highlighted are provided by beauty company for review purpose.

[88-Color Eyeshadow Palette]

I used the 1st color on the top left (refer to above image), as the overall base color.

Here's the swatch. The other swatch is for Make Up Store Microshadow [Chocolate], which I used for my eye contour and facial contouring. Lovely color indeed.

 

On to the review... Bébé Poshé Dazzling Eye Pencil 01 Black Diamond, which I got as part of the goodie bag during the launch event sometime ago. CLICK HERE if you've missed my review on Bebe Diva Supervolume Waterproof Mascara.

When I first swatched the liners at the launch event, I totally love how well-pigmented they are (so intense). They glide on very effortlessly. AND, they didn't seem to budge when I rubbed against the swatches. I reckoned I was in love.

It has a creamy texture in a slightly metallic formulation, with sparkly silver micro-glitter bits.

As much as I love how it's swatched on my hand, it translates into a different story altogether when drawn on my lashline. Well, it doesn't tug or pull. I do have to layer on to achieve a better pigmentation, but it wasn't the same intensity as the swatch. It was a total mess when drawn on the waterline :/

The image above was taken just after I finished drawing my lashline. The liner color looked pretty much faded when it was freshly drawn. It flakes, smudges AND migrates. In just 2-3 hours time, it was literally smudged and gone. When I touched up, the flaking problem gets worse.

I don't know about the other colors that's available. I just know that 01 Black Diamond doesn't work for me. Disappointing much. Perhaps I was unlucky enough to get a faulty one, coz I seemed to read only positive reviews so far. I've no idea, seriously.

Review/LOTD feat. DOT DOT Smoky Shimmer Eyeshadow Palette + 100% Handmade Lashes (WC16)

29Nov11

In this post, I'll be sharing my thoughts on DOT DOT Smoky Shimmer Eyeshadow Palette from Beauty Bistro, and 100% Handmade Lashes (WC16) from Fleur Blossom.

 

DOT DOT Smoky Shimmer Eyeshadow Palette SGD$29.90

A mirrored compact kit with 6 ultra fine, reflective powder eyeshadow colours and 1 cream shade. This palette can easily take you from day-to-night with its wearable colors.

dark blue shimmersilver grey shimmermetallic light copper shimmer

(Note: The fallouts are due to my clumsy fingers.. =.=")

Comes with an eyeshadow brush and a sponge wand, which are pretty useful. The brush bristles are soft and non-scratchy. Doesn't shed easily.

pearl white shimmerpeppermint green shimmergold shimmerdeep chocolate brown (cream)

 

Swatch-Fest 

The reddish deep chocolate brown cream base (with bronze & gold micro-shimmers) can be layered on to get the desired intensity. The swatch shown in the image above is 3 layers. I will suggest using a powder eyeshadow over this cream base, to prevent smudges and creases.

The pearl white shimmer looks more like a cream color in the pan. When swatched, it is a true pearlescent white (perfect for highlighting).

This peppermint green shimmer is packed with peppermint green & grey micro-shimmers, silver & gold micro-glitter bits.

The gold shimmer feels more gritty; more prone to fall-outs. It has pink micro-shimmers, silver & gold micro-glitter bits.

The dark blue shimmer is the most pigmented of the lot, packed with blue & purple micro-shimmers, silver micro-glitter bits. My favorite

The silver grey shimmer has purple & peppermint green micro-shimmers, silver micro-glitter bits.

The metallic light copper shimmer has pink micro-shimmers, silver & gold micro-glitter bits.

My face with Laneige Snow Crystal Dual Foundation SPF22PA+ in Deep Beige 33.

Lioele Real Crystal Twin Cake No.2 is used lightly to set the foundation.

  • Fill brows with Bébé Poshé Sexy Brow Shaper.
  • Apply Too-Faced Shadow Insurance prior eyeshadow application.
  • Apply pearl white shimmer onto 1/2 of the inner upper eyelid area, then layer metallic light copper shimmer all over the eyelid area.
  • Dust some gold shimmer onto the middle part of upper eyelid area for more dimension.
  • Use pearl white shimmer to highlight brow bone, inner corner of eye & dust some onto 1/3 of the inner lower lashline.
  • Apply peppermint green shimmer onto 2/3 of the outer lower lashline.
  • Line the upper lashline thickly with a droopy winged look, using K-Palette 24H Real Lasting Eyeliner (Black).
  • Using the same eyeliner, draw "lashes" on the lower lashline.
  • Layer dark blue shimmer over peppermint green shimmer shade.

*Note: Products highlighted are provided by beauty company for review purpose.

DOT DOT Smoky Shimmer Eyeshadow Palette is available at Beauty Bistro website and all Sasa outlets.

100% Handmade Lashes (WC16) SGD$13.90

A box contains 10 pairs of lashes. Length: 10mm

  • Clear lash bone
  • Excellent Quality
  • Light & Comfortable

 

  • Apply a thin layer of lash glue (I'm using Marie Beauty Clear Eye Cream) onto the lash bone.
  • Wait for about 30s for it to become tacky, for the lashes before positioning.
  • Place the lashes as close to the lashline as possible.

 

CLICK HERE to Like Fleur Blossom FB Pageget $2 off per box on your 1st purchase. That's $11.90 for the one I'm using! $1.19 per pair. Awesome deal!

All prices inclusive of normal shipping charges. For more info, visit Fleur Blossom website HERE.

To warm up my complexion, I brush on only the orange & brown shades from Jill Stuart Mix Blush Compact 10 Sweet Biscuit.

On my lips - Bihada Ichizoku Gorgeous Lip Gloss (Pearl Beige).

The eyeshadows are well-pigmented, and the color stays true and intense all day long. Personally, I like that they aren't crazily shimmery or glittery; very wearable even in the day. I might do a smoky LOTD using this palette. Shall see how it goes (:

The lash bone is clear and thin. It doesn't lose its shape after removing it (gently) from the tray packaging. Some might find the length to be kinda long (10mm). Personally, I think the length is okay for me.

Really easy to apply, especially for someone like me who apply fake lashes once in a blue moon AND simply take forever to get the positioning right.

The lashes feel incredibly soft & comfy. I love how the lashes look on me - SUPER DOLLY!

(PS: I highly recommend y'all to get the Marie Beauty Clear Eye Cream (lash glue) as well. Pretty good in my opinion.)

Random Interesting Stuff @ Watsons

15Oct11

Here to share with y'all random interesting stuff I spotted @ Watsons.

Amethystory is having a promotion booth @ Watsons (Ngee Ann City). I'm not sure if it has ended though.

Love the color! 

Will be reviewing part of the range. Stay tuned (:

Recently, drugstore skincare brands have jumped onto the "instant-foam cleanser" bandwagon. Hmm.. That's great! I do prefer 'em over the normal ones. Hassle-free much.

Bebe Poshe is finally made available @ Watsons NACCLICK HERE for swatches of Bebe Poshe products. The column beside Bebe Poshe has different brands within.

The LeopardThe Red Cheetah

The Pink Polka

The Violent Lips look really awesome.. for HALLOWEEN! I don't think anyone will be game enough to wear leopard print lips on normal days? Too out-standing.. Very visually appealing though..

There's also bird-feathers lashes.. Didn't take note of the brand.. It's within the same column as Violent Lips. Oh, China Glaze nail polishes can be bought @ Watsons.. for $19 each! =.=

Fairy Drops Jelly Glosses. Didn't test 'em out as the testers were in a gooey mess.. :s

Dolly Wink makeup/fake lashes, STILL available.

Fairy Drops Vanilla Puff Mineral Powder, available in 4 colors (Ochre, Dark Ochre, Gold Bronzer, Sparkle).

Fairy Drops Candy Bar BB Cream, available in Ochre & Light Ochre.

I don't like the sponge applicator. Unhygienic much. They should just forgo it seriously.

 

Quick update for now. Thanks for looking!
