The Stuff I'd Used

I am not sure why but it seems that toners are failing me. I feel like they are not doing anything to my face. I can use pretty much the rest but toners, I can ignore it completely. Or at least with or without them, I don't really see a difference.  I only have travel size toners or sprays one now. Spray toners are good as they are convenient. While the small one is good as I'm more diligent on my skincare during holiday.  This one in particular is suppose to be a whitening one, maybe that's why doesn't really suit me. I don't really enjoy using this. All I feel like I'm doing is wasting the lotion away. Granted the bottle is pretty, but the lotion is nothing to take note of. So it's just not for me. 

This is quite good cause it is a rather wet clothe. so it is very easy to remove my makeup. I just don't like it enough as it just doesn't feel like it really cleanse my face. Even though this said that you don't have to double cleanse. So this acts as a lotion too. It's actually quite good for anyone lazy, aka me. But I don't know, maybe I just have to really use this more on an actual face full makeup to really feel the effect. Cause on normal days, this just do fine. But I'm just not in love.

This is said to enhance body circulation to working people with bloated feet. i guess if you too much in the office, your feet can get swollen. So this is suppsoe to get rid of toxins and unwanted substances from the body during your sleep. I didn't use this in my sleep. So that maybe can alter my experience using this? Anyway, you are suppose to use this for 7 days, I am stubborn enough not to care. I bought a whole bunch of these, so maybe I'll do try them out. But I don't think it will work if it's all different kind. Oh well.  Anyway, I'm not sure if my feet was bloated. It didn't seems so. So I can't say that this work. All I know is that the patch broke and it was all greyish and watery and yucky. So maybe it does suck out all the water from my feet. So yay?!

The more pigmented version of the butter gloss. Personally I prefer the butter gloss as it's more like a gloss. I'm not sure if it's the shade that I had chosen or it's just the formula. Intense is slightly more pigmented, so it's more like a liquid lipstick. It's not overly sticky but you know this will last longer than just a mere hour.  Peanut brittle is a neutral caramel shade. It's a nice daily shade. Only, this is not so even when applied. So you have to use a mirror to apply this. It's the only way to even it out so you won't have patchy looking lip.  Overall it's a nice gloss/lip product. And for $13, it's quite reasonable if you buy during sale. 

I am not sure about this shampoo. I think it does a good job at cleansing. The conditioner is nice too. The smell is alright. You use them the first few time is ok. But then it seems to lose its effectiveness. So yah, I have to use the full size to really determine this. 

I am like Sephora lip mask. I thought I would have prefer the others as this is quite messy to apply. But after the initial hassle, I enjoy using it. It dries up beautifully. And the slit in the center just makes it so much more comfortable. This doesn't have the rose scent. So it's nice. I don't mind rose scented anything anymore, but it's nice not have any scent sometimes. The mask is moisturising and good for a day after heavy lipstick wearing and you need the extra moisture. So this will do just that. Not a miracle worker, but it helps a bit. 

I really like this eyescream. It's really very velvety, long lasting and waterproof. It only takes a couple seconds to set the shadow. It's good for when you are in a rush or you just want something budge proof but it's bad if you plan to smudge your eye shadows. I guess this can be used as a base.  Crumb cake is a neutral brown shade. It's good for no fuss shade on the lid. It's easy to apply, and it just gives a nice a neutral shade without it looking too obvious. It's good for daily use.  This is 3g, and cost $24 so it's rather pricey. But I still think it's worth it. 

The baby on the mask vs me. I looked so horrible. Anyway, upon researching, I found out that the Babyish range is meant for people in their 20s. Well, I still qualify under that category, but I guess my skin is a bit too late. While the whole idea of wanting a baby skin is very appealing, I feel that the mask can be better made.  This is a 7 masks pack, and the essence is not distributed equally. The top side of the mask is slightly dryer than the bottom half. Also, it's so hard to put on the mask. It doesn't fit very well and I found that it's just not moisturising enough. Plus it's quite sticky once the mask is gone from my face.  I bought this at TW129. When 2 is for TW199, but I bought a lot of stuff and only notice on the receipt the cashier didn't give me the discount. So disappointed but oh well, just my luck I guess. But yah, so these masks can set you about TW100 which is about SG$4++, so it's rather cheap for a 7 piece masks. Therefore good for anyone ...

$56 concealer. I feel that it is getting more expensive to try out new products now. If I go for drugstore, it will be about $20s. Highend will be about $40s. So I guess it's about there. I finally choose a shade that is similar to my skin tone. After having lighter concealers, it's quite refreshing to have one that is close to my shade.  I like the nozzle, making it easy and give out more or less the right amount I want.  

I was attracted to the ads of these lipsticks. They were fun and full of opaqueness, creaminess and smoothness. I really wanted one to try. It cost $36, so it's not that too bad. There're many finishes to choose from, the one I have is a more creamy finish.  Raw sugar is a pinkish nude. It's very nuetral on my lips and a good shade for everyday wear. It's more pink on me, so it doesn't look boring. Also the lasting power of this is quite good. It doesn't last forever, but it managed to survive a light dinner date. Also, it has little transfer. So I enjoy it. It will lose its shine, but the colour will still be there.  The shade reminds me of Bitch Perfect . But the latter has a glossy finish. Also it's not as dark. But seriously you can't really tell the difference. But at least the 2 finishes are different, so I don't regret having them both.  The only complain about this, is the shape. While it looks proper and prim in the packaging, it's actua...

This is quite nice actually. At first it is quite stiff when you put it on. But once you tape it up, it is quite alright. The plastic is not as bad as it looks. I still managed to have a comfortable day wearing this. I put it on for about 40 minutes, and I just lie down on the bed without feeling the mask is on. So it's a nice feeling actually.  Also, my legs doesn't prune up , what's the right term for that phrase? But I mean it's nice, you get moisturised feet after when it's quite hassle free. Only tearing the plastic is troublesome. You have to use scissors to cut them. But overall, it's a good foot mask. It will fit most everyone. 

$69 of clear gel. Does this work? I'm not too particularly diligent in applying this. So I don't get to really see if this works or not. But I do know it sort of help a bit. Cause without this, the lashes at the corner of my eyes is nil. When I apply this at least, I can see some baby hair growth. I like that it has a sponge end, that you can apply as a liner. And the mascara wand is nice to brush the lashes. So it's a good combo. But if you don't apply this everyday, then I feel that this is just going to be a waste of money. So wasted for me.

This is a nice smelling heat protectant spray. You can spray this to your hair when it's half wet. So it's nice, you don't have to blow dry your hair first. What I like is that this doesn't crisp up my hair until after. Only after the curl is set, then my hair will be slightly crispy. It isn't that bad, cause it still looks natural. Also it will keep the curls until you wash your hair. I never really kept second day curls, so I don't know how long it will last. 

Years ago, the people declare this as the best lip balm out there. Every time I pass by a Dior counter, I will be looking for this. Singapore, there is only the tube and the apricot pot lip balm. When my bro went to Boston, I asked him to buy this for me. So I finally managed to get my hands on the luxurious plastic pot of rose scented lip balm.  To say it is the best, I have no comment. It's not like it's bad but for the price, US$30, it's not that wow. It just lack the factor. I guess I was expecting miracles. It's a good balm, use this for 2 days straight, you'll have the softest crack-free lips; at least that is how it is on me. A day used helps, but consistent usage helps a lot more. I am talking when I have major dry lip here.  So yeah, if you can get this easily at a discount, it's worth a try. With 7.2g, it can last a Long time after all. So it will be quite worth. On the other hand, you have to use your finger applying this and there are just so many c...

Bought this at $18. It's a very fluffy crease brush. I like it enough. It's a nice size on the lid. It an easy used as a crease brush or even pack in some colours. It's fluffy and soft. It's also goes on smooth on the lid. However, it just doesn't feel as nice. I now can feel the different between good brushes and awesome brushes. On the hand, it feels alright. However, when you apply it on the lid, you can feel that it's not as luxurious. While it's soft and did its job, it is just not as swift. I guess you can say that. But really for $18, it's a good brush. 

I really like this. It's a good size for a one time use. 7.9ml, and the capsule shape body wash is cute. Blueberry is also a good scent. I like Sephora body wash. They're very moisturising and the smell is lovely. The scent is not overpowering. It lathers well but I always feel that I need to use a lot of it for my whole body. 

There is just something about grapefruit that doesn't totally remove off my makeup. I think it's the fact that these is not extremely wet. Don't get me wrong, it's wet enough and remove makeup alright. But it tends to dry up after awhile. So it's fine for daily usage but not when I really wanna remove my heavier makeup. The good thing is, this doesn't smell like grapefruit. So that's good in my book. Cause sometime grapefruit scent can be tricky. It's either refreshing or very sour smelling. This one is ok. 

This is a fun little mask in the shape of lemon slices. There are a total of 12 slices. You can place them all around your face or mix and match with other slice mask. It's not exactly a practical mask, but it's just fun to use them. And for what it's worth, it does help to brighten my face a little. $6 from Sephora.

Another foundation that is way too light for me. I was given this, so it's totally nice of them but is just a wrong foundation for me. Not only it's the wrong shade, this is a luminous foundation. Means that it's not a matte one, so it's not something I will use. It's a watery one, but it's just pigmented. A bit goes a Long way. With just a slight pump, I can't seems to get the foundation to sheer down. It's just so thick on my face. Also, not sure why it's call silk, when it doesn't feel like one. But I'm sure this will suit normal to dry skin who wants a bit more coverage in their foundation. I'm just not it. 

They say to keep using this and it will eventually give you less blemishes. The first couple of weeks, these actually break me out. Well I have like a spot on each side of my cheek. It's just the weirdest thing. I continue to use them though cause I don't want to waste them. I got these at $39, so you know that's money. The cleanser is a foam, I usually use 2-3 pumps cause I find that it's quite little. I'm sure a pump is enough, but I don't feel comfortable with just a little foam. It cleanse alright. No squeaky clean feel. So it's quite nice. Clarifying lotion is ok. There will always be a layer of white settling on the bottom of the bottle. Not sure if I have to keep shaking the toner before use or something. The white residue should be the anti-blemish solution. Anyway, the toner is just ok. The moisturiser is an all over clarifying treatment. Not sure if I'm suppose to use a moisturiser after, but I just take it as this is it. It's a nice...

This is a good moisturising lipstick. It's a metallic finish, a deep shade that is perfect for fall/winter. Now if only we have that kind of weather here in Singaporea. The dark purple shade is surprisingly wearable. It looks good with just a simple eye makeup. It is also very comfortable and easy to apply. Lasting power is alright, leave a bit of a stain. But it's still alright. Sometimes dark lipstick leave the lips quite patchy. But this one is alright. So this is good for a fuss free deep colour lipstick. 

I like this a mini version of dropper. It's a good size even though it's only 2.8ml. I don't really use this that's why it's enough for me. Like this will last forever. This is basically a highlighter. You can also mix in with your foundation or moisturiser. A golden, shimmery, glittery sheen. It's so nice on the skin with a good tan. The shimmer is strong so if you like a good highlight, this is good.
