    Sigma Makeup? and Babyliss Curling Tongs Spree

    By xbeanie · November 6, 2009 · 8 Comments · 60 Views

    Hey guys! :D

    This is exciting, look what i found!

     

     

    Sigma now has their own makeup line! (: How cool is that!

    Is anybody here planning to try them out? They do look pretty awesome! (:

     

    Anyway, is anybody interested in a Babyliss Pro curling tong spree?

    They should be about S$80+ quoted by my supplier, and i would need >12 orders to cap it.

    There will be 3 sizes for the curling tongs so you can decide based on how big you'd want your curls to be (:

    I'm planning to get the ceramic ones because they dont spoil the hair and are of really good quality! I don't wanna risk my hair on a cheap product so i think it would be really good to invest in a good one.

    And i have dealt with the supplier before, and if i hold this spree i will go down personally to their office to collect the goods, and i should be paying on the spot as well, so no worries about being scammed or whatever (: I have bought their flat irons and i've been using it for more than a year now! It is really of high quality and it's cheaper than the prices outside because they wholesale, that's why i'd want to go back to them to buy again! (:

    Would anybody be interested? (: Need to test for response first before i open the spree, but i'm really really hoping to get it because i need one myself! xD

    Leave a comment below to express interest yeah!

    Tag: What's in my essential kit? :D

    By xbeanie · November 1, 2009 · 19 Comments · 180 Views

    Taking a break from all the crazy notes, so here i am with a (little more interesting) post!

    Since i got a plastic box from Daiso the other time, i decided to make it my essential kit, sort of, and put in all the stuff that i reach out for all the time :D

    The brushes aren't actually in the kit because i put them together with the rest of the brushes in my mac brush roll, but since i consider them to be my essentials im including them here as well! xD

    Let me start with the brushes :D

    My essential brushes are definitely the 187 and the 109 (: Since im always just putting on face stuff because i simply have no time to my eyes ):

    187 brush:
    I used to reach out for this to apply my edm blushes and all because you know how 187 picks up just enough color from loose blushes and all so i don't look like my cheeks are burnt or anything (: Love it for that! But recently since i started using liquid foundation, i've been using this to apply that and it does give an airbrushed look. Except that my skin is so dry that sometimes when i put on foundation it looks like its flaking :( help, anyone?

    109 brush:
    This brush is awesomeee, i really really like it! I use this for contouring, and sometimes blush, but this is so dense and it feels really soft. :D love it for contouring! Easy to place color below the cheek bone, as well as good to buff it out with. Yay (:

    Next up, those INSIDE the box!

    So started from the top,

    Chanel primer and Mat Lumiere Liquid Foundation:
    Did a review here previously (: so i don't have much to elaborate on, heh!

    Anna Sui Eyelash Curler:
    Got this quite awhile back! It's pretty, and it's pretty good i think, but then again i haven't tried other eyelash curlers? Haha :D Actually got this because the packaging and all is just damn pretty, i love Anna Sui stuff (:

    MAC blush in Harmony:
    My contour shade! (: Got this during the F&F sale back in june/july-ish, actually wanted Emote? But it's discontinued ): This works good though! I use this all the time! It's not too dark or anything. Would definitely consider repurchasing this, but it doesn't seem to be hitting pan anytime soon xD

    Lipsticks:
    I don't have many so i just throw them in there HAHA but i lovelovelovelove Madly Creative <3 and i'm actually scared i'll finish using it cause it's LE! ):

    EDM Brushes:
    I use the Kabuki to buff out blushes or anything, and i use the Flat Top to put on the prep+prime translucent finishing powder, and buff out everything else (: They're so crazily soft and feels super nice on the skin, like um pillow. or something. :D

    MAC Studio Sculpt Concealor and Monistat Chafing Gel:
    I use them together to prevent caking up of the concealor! The monistat chafing gel really helps to make the concealor glide on smoothly and all (: i like. Anyway i'm only left with the 5g jar for myself after selling all the samples, hahaha. Though i only have to use so little each time that i'm even wondering when i'll be able to finish using it. The Studio Sculpt concealor is creamy and i like it, just that somehow it doesn't seem to be concealing my dark circles completely, maybe just lightening it i guess?

    ELF mascara:
    Well i don't actually really use this, but i tried it and it's really awesome, doesnt clump and curls my lashes quite nicely (: Also slightly volumizes my lashes, i think i'll be using this after my exams! :D IMHO, i think this is better than the Majolica Majorca mascara that i used to have. Haha.

    MAC Prep+Prime Translucent Finishing Powder:
    I really really like this! It blurs out fine lines and all, and it definitely 'finishes' the look. I use this after my liquid foundation, so yeah (: I don't think this is a definite 'must-have', it's a really good-to-have product (:

    Yay so that sums up my essential kit! (:

    So i decided to start this tag:

    TAG: What are the top 10 items that you girls reach out for, to form your essential kits?

    I tag:

    heavenlygorgeous http://heavenlygorgeous.onsugar.com/
    everbluec http://everbluec.onsugar.com/
    linnera http://linneraloves.onsugar.com/
    clarachan http://cullenbeauty.onsugar.com/

    Picture credits to Temptalia: http://www.temptalia.com/mac-magic-mirth-mischief-review-dazzleglasses-photos-swatchees

     

     

    I'm actually not reallyyy that into the dazzleglass but it's so damn pretty right!! I'll probably skip this.

    THE LIPSTICK IS SERIOUSLY DAMN PRETTY <3 i like! Been totally eyeing it since i saw the collection BUT THEN since it's permanent i can probably skip on it for now, and get it another time. (:

     

    The main point is the NARS blush in Outlaw!! Freaking pretty i really really want :( but i have orgasm/laguna duo on the way and um my mac palette etc, have been spending wayyyy too much :(

    BUT Sephora is having the 20% off saleeeee. :( Which justifies me buying it now, because i know im totally still gonna be thinking abt this and then cave in some other time, so might as well get it now right? :D

    Haiya, im debating with my conscience. :(

     

    Should stop thinking already, will decide soon. Maybe i'll cave in, afterall. AHH.

     

    (p.s. Dear Boyfriend, you did not see this, okay? (: )

    Review: TBS Japanese Cherry Blossom Body Butter

    By xbeanie · October 14, 2009 · 8 Comments · 45 Views

    Hello! Decided i should do some reviews because i've havent been doing them for pretty long already!

    Anyway i got this body butter from The Body Shop a couple of weeks back, and tadaaaa!

    Description on the box:

    Delightful skin softening with cherry blossom extract. NORMAL SKIN.

    Product: 4.5/5

    Smells really good, i loveeeee the scent (which is kinda the reason why i bought it anyway, besides the point that i needed a body moisturizer) :D It's really rich, and it's definitely really darn moisturizing because it's like a really thick whip cream (: My legs used to be damn dry and all and i do see improvements in my skin and it's not as dry as it used to be, so yeah YAY!! :D I even bought a backup for this in case i run out. HAHA but i think it can probably last me for damn long.

    Price: 2.5/5

    It's $32.90! which is quite expensive i guess? but with the body shop member discount i think it's a 10 or 15% off so i guess you get to save abit on it (: and it's quite a big tub leh! It's 200ml (6.7oz, 192g). so yeah okay la not bad!

    Would I recommend this?: Yup! Go get it girls!

    Would I repurchase?: Heh i already did :O
