Shu Uemura UV under base mousse (pink)

20120713-093351.jpg
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.

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.

Beauty Uk Baked Blush

A red blush looks really intimidating on the box but I picked this up cause I want something different for my collection. It's just a cardboard box kind of packaging, secured with magnet, so it's really simple. It's quite big and like all baked product, it's dome in shape. So it's actually quite bulky. I wouldn't bring it for travel that's for sure. The color payoff is good, but instead of red it's more pink. You can use it sparingly and it will be lighter or you can pack on the color which will gives you a really bright pink. In fact, if lightly dust over your cheek it is more coral than pink. It has tiny specks of shimmer, but it doesn't show. I can't remember how much I bought this for but it wasn't expensive. It's not my favorite blush, but I find myself reaching for it a lot. So that's something isn't?
