MAC Mineralize Eyeshadow in Semi-Precious Collection (Smoked Ruby) Transformed to Nail Polish

MAC Mineralize Eyeshadow in Semi-Precious Collection (Smoked Ruby)
 
The original idea is from YouTuber, Dropdeadgorgeous. I was thinking how to use this product before this because mineralize eyeshadow has poor pigmentation when applying it in dry. Particular this shade, it has black under tone which means when blending it in dry, the red tone will be disappear leaving black patches. Because we Asian rarely use red eyeshadow, this shade has been in my makeup drawer for quite sometimes.
 
Well, I knew the technique of transforming mineralize eyeshadow for quite sometimes too but I don't want to do it earlier. It is because that if I wanted to do it, it must be in a bottle form. In that way, I do not need to mix it again for the next use~
 
Last 2 days, it suddenly come into my mind that why not I use the left over DIY lipgloss tube as a container?! Initially I was worrying whether will the brush tip dry up, eventually it did not! Here, I'm going to attach the video to show you guys how I transform the mineralize eyeshadow to nail polish!

YSL Makeup Palette (Travel Collection)


 This palette I found it at Penang International Airport while I was going to Langkawi for a short holiday trip. It is very eye catching in the sense of unique "HANDPHONE" size which intially I thought it is an I-Phone cover! It comes with 2 versions. Another version is more colorful and fun to play with. I chose this palette because as serve as a travel palette, I think this palette is more versatile. It is more natural and universal.
PRICE: RM118



 They smell really good~ I don't know how to describe the smell but it is really feminine kind of smell and settle. I like this palette more than the Christian Dior Travel Palette in general. The CD one I had depotted it as they don't work well together with same finishes. I don't find myself reach for that CD palette a lot.






This palette although color payoff is not superior, but they aren't bad also. The most I like about this palette are the lipcolors. They glide on pigmented and smooth~ Even I have chapped lips. They are also superior in moisture and glossy look! That I'm very impressed because normally the combination palette comes with lowest quality of lip product.











 Left: One Layer     Right: Few Layers

 The eyeshadows are not pigmented in one swatch. The picture above I did swatches without any base by using fingers. However, if you apply few layers, they look okay.


The colors' name are not specific. So, I don't really know what's their names.



Left: Blusher           Right: Lip Colors
I adore both blusher and lip colors. The blushers is so naturally pop-up my cheeks and the lip colors are so opaque. The plus marks are they also long lasting pigmented, glossy and moisturized

Etude House- Henna Fix Proof 10 Mascara: Super Fix

 I guess there are 2 version of this product. One is non- fibre for volumizing and with fibre for lengthening.
I bought with fibre one... because I had short lashes... My first impression is:
1. It is very wet mascara. I always get some of the product on my face. Too much product stick on the wand!
2. It's waterproof of me.. Minimal smudges throughout the day
3. It adds volume as well as length to my lashes but not dramatically enhanced

Conclusion: I don't hate it or love it so much. It is worth to try out though as I bought it during the sale.
Will I purchase this again? Well, if it is still on sale, the answer is YES! But with the original price >RM50, the answer is NO!!

Price: RM29.90

Revlon- 24 hours Colorstay Whipped Creme Makeup Foundation

Price: RM 69 at Watson's

I believe the hype is worth for this product. As long as the coverage and lasting power, it works well as the original liquid colorstay foundation. What I found is my face would prefers this more than the liquid one. This is because of the liquid one is too dry when it set (even though I have very oily skin) . The whipped one goes on my face so easily. (I use the ELF studio flat top brush). The color match my skin perfectly (250, Medium Beige). However, I also find that if I continuously use this product daily for about a week, it cause itchiness due to clog pores. Well, I still use this but not daily. I will still recommend this to others since this product don't cause major problems to my skin.

Etude House- Eye's Cream in Mint Cooling (SPF 30 PA++)


Price: RM 42.90

I must say, I'm disappointed with this product. At first I bought this because I was looking for an eye cream with SPF. I have developed few hyper pigmentations near the eye zone. I feel so frustrated because ordinary sunblock will not be suitable to eye areas. Initially I was quite happy with this product as it gives a little of cooling sensation to eye area. It's been a while I've used this until half of the stick, I found some oil seeds developed around the eyes. After I stopped this product, the oil seeds also went off. Too bad... I'm not sure is this cause by hygienic issue or what.

Maybelline's Eye Studio Hyper Glossy Liquid Liner

 Hi, today I'm going to review the Maybelline's Eye Studio Hyper Glossy Liquid Liner. The orange colour is as named "Tangerine Orange' and the minty colour is named as 'Turquoise Blue'.

There are 4 colours released in this line but I only bought 2. This is because the dark green seem to be ordinary to me. There is a glossy black also but I'm not fancy with glossy black. I bought these from Watson's with the price of RM16 each. For me, they are really eye catching. The colours are so unique and the pigmentation is awesome. I find that the minty colour is less pigmented compared with the orange. However, applying few coats will give the nice outcome too! What I really love about these products is there a super super super smudge-proof! They last forever on my eyes. There are not water-proof. However, they don't easily come off even I have tried using water to rub them off. Conclusion, I will recommend it for anyone who likes spring colours like this!
