Shu Uemura UV under base mousse (pink)

I love this so much when I was in HK. I tried it again in this hot humid climate, and it suck.

It goes on pink and its really hard to apply. It just doesn't spread very well. Well I know that the foam is pink and it said pink on the can, but I do not have that problem in HK. So I guess the weather plays a part.

In Hong Kong: I love how this product make my face so smooth and matte looking. I love the foam and the texture. It just feels so fun to apply. Plus it is pink, and goes on a bit lighter than my skin tone making me look fairer and fresher.
The only downside is that as a foam it disappear very quickly, so you have to put it on fast.

In Singapore: after managing to put everything as evenly as I possible can, my face is a shade pink 01. It is just a whitish pink, and so different from my skin tone. It doesn't gives a matte finish. More of a dewy look and a few hours later makes my face look really oily.
It doesn't help to smoothen my face. As a base, it doesn't do its work.

Therefore I guess this is a good product for cold weather. For those who tend to have a drier skin. Plus the pink is meant for fair skin, so it probably is not suitable for me. Then again, it worked so beautifully in HK. Oh well, at least the can is pretty.

Shampoo, tried and tested

Klorane seboregulating treatment shampoo with nettle extract for oily prone hair. I went to the USA and UK website, but they do not have this version. Anyway this shampoo is good. I like it, smells good too. No fancy scent but it was not bad. Pretty hard to lather it up. In the end I tend to pour more than needed. If you want to wash your hair less frequently, there is a more practical and rapid solution: KLORANE Dry seboregulating shampoo with nettle extract. If you have an oily scalp and dry ends, you can use KLORANE Seboregulating treatment shampoo with nettle extract.

Givenchy Le Rose Perfecto Lip Balm

This is in the shade 201, creamy and a hint of light milky pink. I like that it is pretty, but the shade doesn't really suit me. What I like best is that they can engrave your name on the packaging. So it is pretty.
