Maybelline BB & CC Cream Review

Today I will be reviewing these essential makeup products from Maybelline. When you are just starting makeup. BB Creams and CC Creams are a great choice to start with. They usually very natural and easy to wear. What is the different between BB & CC Creams? BB is basically a short form of Blemish Balm and CC is a short form of Color Corrector. You get the idea here. BB Creams usually helps to keep your skin healthy and CC Creams has more benefits towards giving you that perfect and most natural even skin tone. Best seller BB creams from Mayelline which is the Clear Smooth BB Cream. Comes in 2 shade options, Fresh & Natural. Mine shown here is in the shade Natural. 

The Maybelline Clear Smooth BB Cream is true to its colors. It is enriched with natural minerals that helps to transform your skin tone looking smooth and natural. The coverage I could say light - medium. A bit bailable but you will still need a concealer to get that perfect natural look. It is easy to blend and does not feel cakey. Less oilier feeling compare to the next one I am reviewing, the CC Cream. I recommend this to anyone, it might work for Oily skin.

The Maybelline White Superfresh CC Cream helps to give you that natural fair effect instantly at the same time protects your skin from harmful UV rays. When you squeeze out from the tube, it looks white, but as you blend it on your skin, it will turns into your natural skintone. Bt I could say it would look pretty fair to dark skin tone. The cream feels a bit chalky to my opinion. I only use this during days where my skin has less spot or no newly "pop" out pimples. It is a great cream for a very light cover during my casual days where I just want to have a bit of a skin correcting effect on my skin.

All Maybelline products are available all all participating pharmacies.

Baby Skin Instant Pore Eraser by Maybelline Review

I got a lot of questions about primer. What is primer? When to use it? Which one is the best? There are tons of primers out there and the choice is a real struggle. They look pretty much the same. The best primer I ever tries is the Smash box photo finish primer. I tried a few but not that much. I don;t usually wear primers frankly speaking. These days I'm all about fast makeup application as I don;t have much time for that layer by layer steps of makeup. Primers is an essential item, it is not compulsory to my opinion because most of the foundation I love is pretty much works great on it owns. I have a lot of request to do a review on this since it has been talk about alot and well it is tempting to buy as the packaging is so damn cute. Primer is a makeup product where you se after your skincare and before your foundation/concealer application. Pretty much a base to all of your makeup. If you are into fine art, primers are like the gesso. It helps to set your skin to a more or better surface for your makeup.

This Baby Pore Eraser by Maybelline claims to help erase your pore appearance. So when you apply your foundation instead if it settling into your pores it will help to give your a smoother finish. It has a transparent gel formula that said will not clog your pores. Helps to smoothen your skin and refine skin appearance. It is non-comedogenic and fragrance free.

My thoughts. Love the packaging. The design reminds me of their baby lips line. This primer does not have any weird scent to it. The texture really reminds me of Smash box photo finish but this has a more gel like texture. As I apply this on to my skin, it does help to give my skin that smooth finish. Kinda like a velvet smooth finish. One thing for sure, a little goes a long way. Do not use it too much or rub it on your skin too much. It be too flaky and ending up you will need to wash your face and reapply it again. It does help to give my foundation a smoother finish but the staying power feels the same. Although it claims not to clog your pores, my own belief is that any type of primers you use, make sure to wash your face extra deeply during the night. Any primers does clog your pores. Overall this is a pretty good primer for a start. It helps to smooth out your face pretty good and helps to smoothen our your skin nicely only that to much of blending and rubbing can cause "flakiness".

You can purchase this at any participating pharmacies such as Watson or online here . This retail for RM29.90 each.

Maybelline Velvet Matte Liquid Lip Color Review | Mat 8 & 10

These lip product are said to be a cream-to-matte lipstick that promise to give you that hydration without that tacky feeling you usually experience with matte lip products. It claims to be a "Hydrating cream color glides on smooth and sets with a matte finish; vibrant, richly-pigmented hues are designed for long wear; lightweight, non-sticky, non-drying formula; velvety, cushion-like texture keeps lips in comfort all day". I'm always love to try anything that says "liquid lipstick". Pretty much obsessed with it. I got two shades with me which are MAT 8 a red undertone lip color and MAT 10 a true cool tone fuchsia pink color.

Overall & Thoughts. My first thought was, this is not a completely matte lip product. As I glide it on my lips, it does feels glossy but not that sticky glossy which is good and I find comfortable. Feels more like a gel than a gloss. For me it is like a more pigmented version of the Maybelline Lip Polish. The packaging are similar only that this Velvet Matte version have a black cap instead. The applicator also looks the same. The pigmentation is very good, on my lip swatch, on each side of my lips are completely just one application. I could not say that it settle into matte after a few minutes, still look the same as I first apply it but on the other good point of this lip, it is very hydrating. Bare in mind they do not look matte but they look pretty good on the lip as a hydrating pigmented liquid lipstick. There is no weird scent to it. I think why it is called Velvet matte is is because it does not really give you that kinda "fuller lips" , this does settle into your fine lines a bit for that "matte effect" but definitely their formula really want to give you that hydration and avoiding discomfort while wearing it, like most matte lipstick are pretty tacky after a few hours. But still I don;t find this a completely matte lip product. More like a liquid lip color.

Available at any participating pharmacies nationwide such as Watson, Guardian and many more. Retails for RM32.90 each . More info here.

Lash Sensational Mascara by Maybelline Review

I have been wanting to share my review for this mascara like forever but time just would not be there for me. So today I got the chance to talk about a new mascara that I have been loving since I got it. It is this beautiful metallic pink tube mascara from Maybelline called the Lash Sensational Mascara. It is said to be the first patented fanning brush with 10 layers of bristles. The mascara it self are made out of a liquid ink formula that will coat your lashes from all sides for that full fan effect making your lashes looks more fuller and multipled. 

I was a bit disappointed with the Rocket mascara, and I don;t know why I am not hanging around with Maybelline mascara that mush after that. But this came in the mail and in just one application I was blown away. I instantly said, I love this mascara and has been recommending everyone who ask me what mascara can they buy. It hold my curl for hours, separate, makes my lashes longer and gives me the blackest black lashes that I love. Easy to remove with a makeup remover and I freaking love the brush it self. It has this unique fan and shape that I could not describe my self that helps application easier and faster. Definetly a mascara I will repurchase if mine dries out.

Have you tried this mascara? What do you think about it?

Retails for RM39.90 each and available at any participating pharmacies nationwide in Malaysia. You can shop online too here - Guardian / Watson .

Maybelline The Nudes Palette Review

More and more brands are getting into these neutral eyeshadow palettes as they get more attention from most makeup lovers. Most drugstore brand usually have small quads and small eyeshadow options from what I can see but now they have dive in into a more variety and trend we have been into these days which is eyeshadow palettes. I got the chance to get this palette from the PR and I am so happy to try it. I love the color shown in this palette and I could say they look really versatile. Some say that this is a dupe for the Naked 2 palette. 

This came in a plastic case, no mirror inside. Have 12 gorgeous neutral colors from matte to shimmer. My impression is that the color pay off was just okay. The mattes are not buttery or smooth, might wanna get a few swatch to make it appear more nicer, but to think of, these mattes are still build-able, so it is a great sheer color to be use for highlighting and as a transaction color. The shimmer has great color payoff and pretty smooth. This palette is a great palette for beginners, might wanna get this palette during sale cause it is more worth it. If you see at the back of the palette, each shades are coordinate to 3 quads, 4 trios and 6 double eyeshadow. So it is a great guidance or maybe an idea of what look you can go for the day without having you stare at the palette for 5 minutes thinking what shade to use.

Overall, I love to use the shimmers color as a base and the soft matte colors as a transition color. A pretty good palette for beginners, might wanna reconsider this if you have too many neutral palettes. These shadows does not budge or smudge for a pretty long hours, better to be use with eyeshadow primers to make it last all day.

You can get this at any participating pharmacies such as Guardian, Watsons. They retails for RM69.90. But they are always on sale, so you can get this as low as RM49.90 if I am not mistaken. Some of my followers said some places they did not restock this anymore, I'm not sure about this too. At my place in Johor I can still see them.

Maybelline Hypersharp Wings Eyeliner Review

I found a new favorite eyeliner and it is this. Now my eyes can fly with those wings. It is the Maybelline Hypersharp Wing Eyeliner that is even better than my previous favorite which is the gold cap one - The Hypershap Liner. This is more finer but easier to control. This eyeliner is the first marker type liner that has a flat sharp tip. As you can see, it has a different shape in different angle. This way, you can create a thin or thick line easily. Describe in measurement, the thinner side are 0.01mm and the thicker side are in 2.00mm.

It is very pigmented and really easy to use. Since I knew about these marker type of eyeliner, I barely touch my pencil or liquid eyeliner. This eyeliner are also easy to removes (with makeup remover or warm water) and last pretty long. I would say 3-4 hours. I normally bring it in my makeup bag to give some touch ups. Since I got this, I can create a thin line above my lid super easy and quick. It glides on top of my eyeshadow very smooth. Hands down. My best eyeliner in my stash!

Maybelline Colosal Kajal 12H Black & Hypercosmo Trio Eyeshadow

Maybelline is known for its awesome eye makeup products. Mostly known for its mascara. Today I will show you two eye makeup product from Maybelline. I think both a relaunch and reformulated. The Kajal liner is a re formulated eye-liner from the previous 6 hour Kajal liner. The Hypercosmo eyeshadow is a product that claims to be a highly pigmented, with a unique 3D effect and stunning metallic finish and captivating the summer look with metallic. So here are my thoughts.
Maybelline Colosal Kajal 12H Black It said that this is the new and improve Colossal Kajal Eyeliner. The one before clams to last 6 hours but this claims to last 12 hours. Comes in a bright yellow packaging and it is an auto twist type of eyeliner that does not need sharpening. It has a very creamy and precise texture. The tip is pretty firm and fine which makes applying easier. It is super pigmented and waterproof. I had a rough time removing this. It does not smudge but it stains your hand if you rub it. Lasting power was okay. It last me about 3-4 hours. I don't like to use this on my upper lid, but I like to use it on the half of my lower lid. Price wise are also affordable.
Hypercosmo Trio Eyeshadow Maybelline has come out with these mineralize baked eyeshadow that offers you metallic eyeshadow finish look. It is not a quad but as you can see it has different colours in it that you can play around. There are 4 shades you can choose from that is Coppered Mars, Venus Gold, Pinky Comet and Galactic Purple. The one I got here are Coppered Mars & Galatic Purple. It comes in a dome shaped plastic packaging that is pretty nice. Pigmentation wise, does not really impress me. The texture is not chalky, but colour pay off is a bit weak. You need 4-5 layers to make the colour really pop off. This is recommend t you if you fond over a very light finish of eyeshadow. This may need a help of a good eyelid base or eye primer to make it last long and look more vibrant.

Maybelline White Superfresh Powder Review

As-salamu alaykum and hello everyone ♡. Many bloggers has review it and I might as well pour my own thought about it! Receive this a few weeks ago and had tested it about a week. This compact powder is said to be a powder that has a unique Clean Touch Powder System. The innovative system helps to absorb sebum and also helps your sweat to dry faster so your skin feels fresh all day long. The Clean Touch Powder System's Mineral Perlite contains 5x more absorption more than normal powder talc. It has a lightweight formula that is suitable for everyday wear.
What I like about it. I love the design of the compact powder. Although the white case catches dirt easily, this looks sleek in my collection. It also comes with a nice soft sponge. The texture of this powder is really fine and does not have too much coverage which I like. It is nice to be use above foundation to set it in. It's also have a nice fresh scent in it! Price wise are also affordable. Have UV protection.
What I don't like about it. Re touching is needed. It does not last that long on your face. A bit white cast effect if you apply to much.
Overall & Recommendation. This is a nice compact powder to have in the stash if you are interested. It has a nice light coverage and perfect for people who are looking for a nice natural makeup items. This is pretty much a basic powder anyone can have. This does reduce shine and leave your skin matte without having a cakey face if you reapply for touch ups.
