I am so in love with this! It is the latest collection from Bobbi Brown called "Miami Collection". These shimmer powders come in 2 colors. Gold and Miami(pink). I bought the Gold one as it would work really well on most skin tones and I can't wait to use this on my clients to give that really nice illuminating glow to their faces and on myself as well! lol

Check out the photos with and without the flash. Isn't the shimmer so pretty? I would say that this is an between of a shimmer and glitter. Not too loud yet not too subtle. Just right! You can even apply this over the eye area to give it some sparkle :) Texture of this powder is really sheer and soft and all you need is a blusher brush to apply it.

You can't go wrong with this. It retails for Sgd$70. Available at all Bobbi Brown counters.

I have a fetish for matte lipsticks! I love the rubbery look of lips and matte lipsticks are so pigmented and the color is opaque and it also has the longest staying power and for me, i do not like touching up. I go for products that last for a long period of time. 

I am a huge fan of Inglot products. They never fail to disappoint me.

Inglot Lip pencil is very soft in texture and the fact that its a jumbo pencil, its so easy to outline the lips. After outlining the lips, i filled my lips with the pencil followed by applying the lipstick.

The Inglot matte lipstick is abit dry so my advice for people with dry lips, you would need to soften your lips by using a toothbrush to lightly brush the flaky skin away and then apply a rich lipbalm followed by lipstick.  

I use Lush lipscrub in Bubblegum :)

Inglot AMC Lip Pencil retails for Rm44 and the Inglot Matte Lipstick retails for Rm50. Got it from the Inglot outlet in Malaysia - Sunway Pyramid.

Makeup Store

Makeup Store Eyepencil in Tropical







Isn't this color lovely? I am loving itttt!!! I was in Makeup Store the other day buying my eyebrow pencil. I use Makeup Store eyepencil in Dark Chocolate. Been using it for the last 2 years and been coming back to buy more. Very nice chocolatey brown shade and it doesn't smudge and it glides on without any tugging at all.

This color caught my eye as it's a very bright lime-green color and I don't have an eyeliner like that. I used it at 11am and it lasted all the way till 9pm without any touch ups! The color of it is called Tropical and it retails for Sgd$27.

L.A. Girl Blushers

L.A. Girl Blushers in Subtle, Satin Flush and Coral Heat



 BL555 Subtle

 BL564 Satin Flush



 BL567 Coral Heat




From left to right - Subtle, Satin Flush and Coral Heat.

Loving loving loving these blushes!! Bought them from the Watsons located in Paragon. I am currently liking these brand. Affordable yet really good quality makeup.

They retail for Sgd$15 each.

Subtle is a matte finish. Peachy tone. Reminds me of MAC Gingerly blush.

Satin Flush reminds me of NARS Deep Throat. Shimmery coral kinda shade.

Coral Heat is perfect for dark skinned tones. Just the right shade of color and right amount of shimmer to give that glow to the cheeks.

You would not believe this but I have never bought any VS makeup before. Just never got to doing it. Happened to go through the website www.victoriassecrets.com and saw these bronzers on sale. 2 for Usd$12 and so i got them and I am loving it!!

They are called the Luminous Bronzers. They have 3 shades in total. I bought these 2. 

They both have subtle gold shimmer to them which i love coz you can use them when you're at the beach/daytime and of course in the evenings as well. Great for photoshoots. Good for those who want a glowish tan look to the skin. Not chalky at all, very smooth texture and pigmened!

They can even pass off as blushers as well. I will be using them tonight and will post up some pictures.
