Assalamualaikum & hello ladies!

Wow, how long have i neglected my blog again. Sorry guys, there is always something i have to settel around. It is quite late for my last month favorites, but i must share! let's get on with what is in my April 2013 favorites!

1. Tarte Amazonian Clay Blush in Exposed | RM63
I know i know, everyone have been loving this but i just can stop myself from trying this! Yes I love this blush! I think it suits most skin tones and how naturally looks. I can use it to contour my cheeks as well as a blush. I not sure about the staying power. Many claims it does stay for 12 hours, but it does not seems happen to me. But i still love it! Its a must have blush for natural looking makeup lovers out there! This is not available in Malaysia tho, but you can find it in most local online shop! i got mine from Lilian from PBS for RM63+.

2. Elianto Concealer in 02 Medium | RM21
It is very pigmented and easy to blend. This is actually my second purchase. The first purchase disappointing because i got an expired one. it was on sale and i did not check the date. it was hard as rock, i can blend it at all even i tried to melt it in the microwave. I tried the tester at Elianto counter and pretty much like the texture, so i bough a new one again. i checked it before i purchase it to ensure i did not get the expired ones. it is very creamy and moisturizing. but i do not recommend for oily skin types because this might be a lil too creamy for you. it cover nicely but does not last very long. but i really like how it is very easy to blend and not too cakey.

3. Shiseido Perfect UV Protector SPF 50++PA++ | RM 130
This product were sent to me, and i pretty much loving it. You can read my review here. I love how it feels light on the skin and does not leave white cast on my face.

4. Silkygirl Drink Up Lip Balm in Coffee
I never ever had a lip balm that gives me a "lip gloss" effect! This one totally win my heart when i first applied it. It does not have this kinda waxy feeling on your lip as well as heavy. It glides smoothly and leaves my lip smooth shine. Not a fan of the scent actually although i love coffee. It also leaves my lip look naturally red. I don't know why and how because this lip balm in actually does not have color or tint on it.

5. Yadah Anti Trouble Bubble Cleanser | RM59
Some of you may know how I love my Bubble Cleanser from Yadah in my previous post. Now I'm loving the new one! The price is slightly higher than the Bubble Cleanser. This cleanser claims to fight any skin trouble like acne and spots. I got to admit that it does! It slightly minimize the appearance of my acne and spot. Very convenient and i love the foam and bubbles! You can purchase this at any Stage Cosmetic Outlets or at Zalora here.

That all for my monthly favorites! What's yours? You can share in the comment below, i would love to read it! <3

Hugs and kisses

Sabrina Tajudin April 26, 2013 7 comments

Assalamualaikum & hello ladies!

One of my resolution for this year is to wear sunscreen! Am i kidding? Not at all! yes! I admit it that i have neglected my skin to open UV rays. No no! not good! Sun screen is very very important. You have to wear it because the harmful UV rays that "attacked" your skin everyday can cause you skin cancer. Wanna know more about sunscreen, i got it covered here - click me.

When it come to sunscreen, i love a sunscreen that gives 100% protection, feel comfortable on the skin and does not leave a white cast on the face. YES! I found one, that is the Shiseido Perfect UV Protector 360°. What I love about this sunscreen is, it is easy to apply, not thick at all. Feels light on the skin and the most importantly, does not leave a white cast. It is really easy to apply, the texture of the liquid is very runny. The scent of this product is just like the usual sunscreen scent.

What is claims to be is this Perfect UV Protector SPF50+ PA++++ is a very water-resistant sun protection lotion that provides reliable defense against UV rays while offering advance skincare benefits. Ideals for face and body and especially formulated for strong sunlight conditions.

The special about this sunscreen is, it is water resistance. Totally recommend to you girls out there who wanted to go swimming during the hot day. Protect your skin girls! hey, and you boys out there too ok? Retails for RM130 in West Malaysia and RM135 in East Malaysia at any Shiseido beauty counter.

Naruko Rose & Snow Fungus Night Jelly Review

Sabrina Tajudin April 21, 2013 6 comments

Assalamualaikum & hello everyone!

I came across Naruko website last year and went a lil shopping in there. I bought the a cleanser, a serum and this Night Gelly mainly from the Rose Series. I am really excited for the Night Gelly range. So I bought this one, it is called the Rose & Snow Fungus Night Gelly. Claims to improve fine lines, dry skin adn large pores. Mainly it is recommend to use during the night. Kinda like a sleeping mask to me. JaaackJack a beauty guru from YouTube sometimes use this during the day when winters coming. She said that this "Gelly" give her an extra boost of moisturizing. Can't argue with that. Yes, this moisturizer is super moisturizing.

You can feel you skin a lil bouncy and moisturizing in the morning! My pores are also smooth especially the skin between my nose. This may be a downside to some people, the texture is thick and sticky. I always apply this last after toner and serum. If I slept in an air condition room, this moisturizer help my skin not to dry out.

Sometimes I love to put in the fridge for a few minutes and apply it. It is very very cooling and nice on the skin! But when you press your palm on your cheeks, you can feel the moisturizer is sticky kind of way and sometimes I felt uncomfortable during sleeping knowing there something thick on my skin. It also have a mild rose scent to it. Oh yes, it came with the black spatula you can see on the picture. Pretty handy but I always misplace it. So usually I use a cotton swab/cotton bud to scoop the product out and apply it using my fingers.

I recommend this moisturize or sleeping mask from my opinion to those who have dry skin. Give it a try if you are interested, I bought it here http://www.naruko.com.my/shop/ - at RM32.00

Have you tried their Night Gelly? Or what night moisturizer you are currently using?

Hugs and kisses

Revlon Photoready Concealer 004 Medium Review

Sabrina Tajudin April 18, 2013 6 comments

Assalamualaikum & hello ladies!

Love and hate towards this product. I would not say I don't like it but I keep reaching for it. It cost around RM35+. The shades available are only 3. I bought it at Watsons. It blends easily but you kinda need more to cover spots that are very visible. But its pretty handy when it comes to cover your under eye. The downside of this product is its lasting. It does not last long and since its pretty handy I always bought this along when I'm going outside and comes pretty handy for touch ups. Its very light weight and kinda moisturize too. I love this product but may not repurchase it because it finish up fast and the price is not suitable for me.

The best part of this product is that its pretty handy. The packaging is similar to a lipstick. How do I describe this. Hm.. The consistency is pretty similar to cream foundation actually. If you are looking for ONLY a under eye concealer that is easy to blend, well, you got to try this.

Sleek Ultra Matts V2 Review

Sabrina Tajudin April 15, 2013 14 comments

Assalamualaikum & hello everyone!

After months of trying this palette now I present you the review and thought of this palette. I got this palette from UK. She was on holiday so I manage to ask her to help me buy this palette. Thank you dear friend. :) You can get this in many online shop now days or just order it straight from their official website. It will cost you around RM50 and below.Why I wanted this palette so much is because of the mattes color offered in this palette. All of the eye shadows in this palette are mattes. Since I have so many shimmery glittery eyeshadow, I wanted something to tone it down a little.

Lets talk about the packaging, the packaging is a matte type of plastic that catches dirt easily. I don't like that but its ok. The size of the palette is "just nice". Easy to travel with I predict. As when you open it, you can see a mirror in there. Pretty handy. The size of each circle are pretty similar to the new 50 cent coin (Malaysia) but a lil smaller. Just a lil.

At first impression I was quite disappointing with the quality. Its very hard to swatch. But after a while it is not what I thought about. I think when I first swatch it, well, its pretty brand new right, so the surface is kinda very hard to swatch. How do I explain this? I hope you understand. So what I can say is, YES! The pigmentation is super super super pigmented! Smooth and all you need is a just a little! Work so well with brush compare to fingers. Last long too! Does not fade and crease.

I am not satisfied with my picture quality, it looks like the color is not vibrant at all. It is actually very-very vibrant. The little downside of this palette is that it is a lil chalky, I warn you! So better be careful and try to cover your under eye with tissue or something when applying it.

My favorite shade would be Ink, Noir, Paper Bag and Villan!

I totally recommend this palette to mattes lover out there!

Hugs and kisses

Sabrina
