The Rocket

I bought this in the UK as usually it takes forever for new product to get into Singapore market. This time it wasn't that long for the rocket to land in Singapore. But anyway, I've been saving this mascara and I bought one more at Luxola during one of their sales just for comparison. I wanted the waterproof one and I realized that's the light blue wordings and they don't have that in Singapore.

So the difference: 9.6ml made in Italy and 10ml made in China. The latter is from Singapore. Other than that it's pretty much the same.

I prefer this as compared to They're Real. It's much more dryer and separate the lashes better. I also feel that I do not have to curl my lashes. Somehow it will curl them up a little. It helps to volumise my lashes and makes them look longer. It basically just makes them look fuller.

The wand is nice but sometimes I prefer the traditional wand. It is nice as it grabs onto the lashes, but if I kept coating them, it will clump. So I have to stop at the right moment. While with traditional wand, they don't feel as heavy when you kept going.

The downside is that once you use it for about 2 months, the formula kind of clumpy. I never even use it daily, so it's kind of a waste. The finish is also kind of crisp, so you can't really layer it with other mascara.

So I will consider this if I am only using one mascara as it's nice not having to curl your lashes whenever you apply mascara. But if not, I think the Magnum is a better mascara.

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.

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?
