Sebum makeup remover review

Hey girls, sorry its been so long since i post anything, its just some difficulties on my blog layout and seems like nothing is updated eventhough I do write new post. But somehow it doesn't get update on other bloggers site when they added me on their bloglist. So I kind of got discourage to write now! =[

Anyways, this month is pretty busy cuz I got 2 midterms and so many homework that I dont even have time to blog. However, I am on my spring break now and taking my time to chill. =]
I went to Marukai supermarket in Costa Mesa couple days ago and got this Sebum makeup remover that I heard many good reviews about. It was on SALE for only $9.80 something...online they sell if for $13.00 not including shipping!

So I got really excited and got 2 of them. They had 3 different type of removers but couldn't understand Japanese so I got the one the many people do reviews on.

It does feel like water, theres no oil residue. Removes my makeup well!!! I think I am gonna start to fall in love with it! =]

This is my results...( I had a photoshoot that day and wanted to try it out how well it removes my makeup) You be the judge!!!

Hey guys, sorry its been awhile. I did a haul for a last couple weeks and wanted to just do a review on them once. Thats why it took a while because I had to wait for it all to come at once. Anyways, I bought a 120 Manly e/s palette, 28 blush palette and the 66 lip palette on Ebay. The 120 palette comes from a different seller. But the other two is from a different seller. If you want to know where I bought it from, please email or comment me, I will link you to there.

The look I am going for today is doll look using all my palettes that I bought! All the colors are so pigmented as you can tell in the pictures. I am in love with my lip palette and my blush palette! They were actually better than what I expected from them. If you are interested in the product, I highly again recommend it! =]

-Mac select foundation in NC40

Clinique cream cleanser review

Hey girls, sorry for the long update, I've been studying for my Bio class and don't have time to do any fotds, or reviews. Please forgive. =]. Anyways, I went to the CCO (Cosmetic Company Outlet) at The Block yesterday and found this Clinique cream cleanser that also removes your makeup and leave your skin healthy and soft looking without that dull dryness. Sounds decieving, so I bought it for around $14.00, orginal price is around $17.oo.


The reason I bought this was because I need a face cleanser that actually removes my makeup and those stubborn waterproof mascara. I don't like using makeup removers so muchbecause they have so much oil residue on my face after. So yea, I finally found the face cleanser I needed but become very dissappointed after I used it! =[

I wanted to test it out to see if it does really means what it said, so I put on my waterproof mascasra and gel liners in a torquois and black color. After I apply on the cream and gently rub it around my eyes to remove the makeup, then wash my face with water, but it hasn't completely comes off! So I had to do it again! Yes, it was very dissappointing that it doesn't removes my makeup as it said. If any of you guys know any other cleansers that can removes makeup please let me know!

Rating: 2/5






See how there are still some makeup left around my eyes??

Mac HK glitter liner review

As many of you girls know, I bought this glitter liner from he Mac hello kitty collection and wanted to test to see how it turns out, and you guessed it right, I LOVE IT!! It is not like any glitter liners you see, its pigmented, sparkly, dries quickly and actually stays on your skin! I love this glitter liner so much and now I am thinking of buying more colors at Mac! I especially love this color because its so natural and sparkly, it great for just going out on the daily basis, because it doesn't make you feel like you have to wear this for the night life only. I recommend this Mac glitter liner for anyone who loves glitter and aren't afraid to use them!!

( I havent tried any other brand besides Mac, I heard that NYX has glitter liners too but don't know if they are as good as Mac)

PROS:
-comes in great colors, dries fast, pigmented, and lasts for long time!

CONS:
-NONE!!!

Mini Haul

I went to the mall today and got myself a mini haul from Mac and Scandalous Cosmetics. Since the Blonde, Brunette and Redhead collection came out, I wanted to try the LE 226 brush to see whats its like. And I also bought a eyeshadow from the BBR collection in 100 Strokes. They have many other new colors that are nice too but only this one caught my eyes.

Many of you may not know what is Scandalous Cosmetics is, click on the link. I bought this shadow base because I saw a video review from makeupartistamateur on youtube. And really wanted to try it out. So yes, maybe this may be the best eye primer so far for me...heheh

Mac Brush Cleaner

I went to the mall yesterday to Macys for some Christmas shopping, but I didn't get anything! Of course I always have to stop by the Mac counter just to glimpse at some things. =] My sis bought an mascara as a gift for her friends. I been wanted to try out their brush cleaner, to see how good it is. And YES its great! The girl told me that if I use dark colors e/s with my brushes, its best to clean them right away so the e/s doesn't stain the brush bristles ( very helpful tip).

Pros:

  • Big bottle so it would last you a longgggg time.
  • The liquid color is PINK! My current fave. color. =]
  • Pretty reasonal price. $11.00 (It will last you a long time)
Cons:
  • None as of right now. =]


See how dirty they are? I haven't wash them for weeks!

The After! Nice and clean! Just like brand new.

Coastalscents Haul

My CS palettes arrived today!!! I was so excited that my Coastalscents package finally came! I bought some a few stuff for my friend too so we ended spending over $100, which was okay because they had free shipping with purchases of $100 or over within the US. I bought some brushes, blush palette, and a matte 88 palette for her. As for myself, I bought ultra shimmer 88 palette, EZ pressing medium, and a contour palette. We also got a free eyeliner with sharpener as a free gift.

The colors of the shadows are very pigmented, vibrant and HOT! I couldn't believe that when I washed my hands, the shadows are so stubborn that it wouldn't come off! Anyways, I will start enjoying these babies soon!! I am planning to buy the 88 matte palette but still not sure yet. But in the meantime, I can finally start pressing my mineral shadows! =D









See how vibrant and hot the colors are???
