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

By xbeanie · November 1, 2009 · 21 Comments · 217 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:
