First Impression: Sexy Look Moisturising Black Facial Sheet Mask

Do people still use mask from Taiwan? Or it's all about Korean sheet mask. Anyway, the essence of the mask has a jelly kind of feel. It is actually quite nice on the face initially. Not a cooling mask. In fact my skin kind of feel irritated after awhile. Like it's quite burning. Not sure how I feel about this. Probably I won't bother with it as there're so much mask out there in the market. So those that is so-so, I would not recommend it.

Givenchy Dahlia Noir

EdP 1ml sample, so lovely. I love the scent. It's the perfect scent for night events. Strong and feminine. Really a fragrance of a femme fatale. I like that it is not so overpowering but it just makes you feel powerful.

Mario Badescu Glycoric Cleanser & Toner

Not sure how I feel about this. Since it's a travel size, it is nice to have around. But if I have the full size, I probably will not enjoy it as much. The cleanser is fine. It does its job. The toner is fine too. I didn't really used it as much. But I think it's good for cooler weather. Cause you will need extra moisture. So this helps. I feel like when I did not use this, my skin feels dryer, even though I used an extra hydrating moisturiser.

Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder - Diffused Light

This is only 1.3g worth of product and it cost $36. That's right, cause I don't want to pay $70 for the normal size not knowing if it is any good. Also their trio is forever sold out. Feels like crying when I saw the packaging. Such a tiny product for $36. But I mean my mini TF lipstick is $50 and it is the only one I used daily, and I still have a lot of it. So this probably can last forever too. I like that it is light. The shimmer is very subtle. I doubt you can really see it on the face. But I do try notice that I look glowier. What's the word? I don't know, maybe it is just my imagination. Never the less, if you have normal skin this will be fantastic for you. Or dry skin too. For oily skin, it will be better just to use this as highlight.

Smashbox Be Legendary Lipstick - Cognac

This is quite a small lipstick. At least it is shorter than most. The case is a sturdy plastic. Very secure when you close the lid. Cause it just feels really tight. Cognac is a burnt brown with hints of purple kind of shade. It's rather metallic in nature and very shimmery on the lips. In the place without much light, this looks alright on me. But with full on light, it doesn't suit me as much. The texture is nice though. Smooth and easy to apply. Very pigmented and feels good on the lips. I think if the colour is less orange? It will look slightly better. Cause now it just look quite out of place for an everyday look.

Rimmel Volumeflash Scandaleyes Waterproof Mascara

My wand is bended. Not sure why. It was suppose to be a straight wand, but it is now a curve wand. I still can work with it. It's a very thick mascara. Super volumous. Does not give much curves. So you need to curl your lashes. It is better once it is slightly used as it is not so wet. So it is easier to apply. I wouldn't buy it again, but it's probably good for people who want dramatic lashes.

First Impression: Choonee Horse Fat Rejuvenating Mask Pack

I don't really like this. The smell is kind of weird. It's not bad, it's just not fragrance. I don't know. It just not that nice. The mask is quite wet, the essence texture like a gel.

Zoreya White Floral 12pc Makeup Brushes

I had this forever but I never mention it before. It was before I started buying pricier brushes. This set was about $19? I know it was not expensive. And it does come with 12 brushes, a mix of goat and synthetic hair. So it's really not bad. Plus a case too. Really useful. Of course now years later, the case starting to get yellow. So I'm throwing that out, and blogging this down as a memory. The bigger brushes are quite good. Little to less shedding when washed. It manages to retained its shape. Fluffy and quite soft too. The eye brushes are good too. They did their job. I can do a full eye look with them. Plus a spoolie never hurt. I did not use this much since then, but this manages to still be intact. So, it's a good set to buy for anyone trying out makeup. The brushes, in term of size and length will help you see if you like it or not. So when it's time to get a better one, you'll already know which one you like. Anyway, I'll be using a lot of the red powd...

MAC Pro Longwear Eye Liner - Powerline

This is such a good colour for the eyes. It's neutral enough with a little of sparkle. It is not bling, but it's not matte. So it does not look so flat. Longwear is right, this last forever. Unless you rub your eyes real hard, it's hard for this to disappear. Of course I use this more of like a line of shadow across the lid. But it's the colour that I'm in love with. I love a neutral that's more 3D.

Caolion Pore Blackhead O2 Sparkling Blackhead Soap

This is for blackhead & exfoliates, sebum control, hydrates & soothes. This is the small version at only 21g (dry) and 25g (wet). They put it on the packaging. This is $8 from Sephora. The soap is quite good at removing makeup. I do find that my blackhead is minimised with constant use. I like that this foam up nicely. My skin will feel dry after using this, but not so squeaky clean. So it's a nice dry feel. But the thing about bars is that it is troublesome. So it is best if you have your own bathroom.

First Impression: Choosy Milk

This one is not that nice. It tastes really bad. Even though my mouth are closed all the time, I still can feel something bitter. Don't really like this one.

Sephora Nourishing Shower Balm

So this is the new shower gel of sort from Sephora. It is $7 for 150ml. It is actually a shower balm which is suppose to be more moisturising for than shower gel. I bought this online. So I can't tell how the scent is going to be like. Pillow battle to me can be to fight against pillow which is suppose to be a morning scent cause you have to fight against sleep. Or it's a sleeping scent cause you'll battle with the pillow to sleep. Anyway the scent is like Lux soap. The brand Lux. A drugstore brand. So I really feel cheated. Cause Lux will cost $7 too but you'll get like maybe 600ml worth of soap. The texture is the same too. So yah. This one is a no for me.

papa recipe Bombee Rose Gold Honey Mask Pack

This smells so good. At first it smell like honey. Then it just smell like candy. I'm thinking bubblegum, but I don't think so. It's just so yummy. I love it! The mask is really moisturising. It's perfect for those days you just need a little pampering.
