Estée Lauder Little Black Primer™: Turning zero lashes to hero lashes, converting non-waterproof mascara to waterproof mascara

I totally missed out the part where this Little Black Primer™ will only be launch in February 2015 that I nearly scheduled it up for December 2014. Thank goodness I was referring to the press release while composing. That explains why I have to push this review to February. So sad that I’ve come to the last instalment of Estée Lauder week product review 🙁 . If you’ve missed the first two reviews, click here for the first review and click here for the second review 😀

Among the three Estée Lauder product I received over a month ago, the first one I started using the next morning is the Estée Lauder Little Black Primer. I was actually most excited with this one here because I don’t need to photograph it before using AND I have sad, droopy lashes.

Estee Lauder Little Black Primer
Now, the Estée Lauder Little Black Primer™ is a 3-1-1 lash primer. No it does not contribute growth to the lashes as this is a makeup product BUT that doesn’t make it any less interesting. What this product really is that it is (1) a lash tint for ‘barely visible’ lashes, (2) a pre-mascara primer that hold curl, gives volume and length and (3) a post-mascara primer that sealed the mascara and gives it a waterproof coating. Tell me that is not intriguing. I’ve never heard, seen or used anything like this before.

Smashbox Full Exposure Waterproof Mascara: The kind of mascara that gets better over time

Tell me. Can you leave the house without mascara on? I know most people feel naked without eyeliner. To be frank, I can live without eyeliner. I just can’t skip eyebrow and mascara. Ever since I discovered mascara and the difference it makes with and without, I make sure I apply at least a quick coat even when I had brittle lashes at one point of time.

It takes some time to know if a mascara is good. Some mascara tend to wow at first application but sucks later on and some mascara doesn’t perform well at the beginning especially when it’s new but gets better as the content dries up a little. This is what happen with me and Smashbox Full Exposure Waterproof Mascara.

Smashbox Full Exposure Waterproof Mascara
Smashbox Full Exposure Waterproof Mascara is actually a waterproof version of the brand’s best-selling mascara – the Full Exposure Mascara. I’ve not used the non-waterproof version before as I only use waterproof mascara so I can’t really tell you what’s the different. This waterproof version however is inspired by on-set technique of layering lengthening fiber mascara over a volumizing formula. It is said to exposes longest, fullest lashes, with no clumps and no flakes.

How to apply pencil eyeliner in 3-different ways

I’ve never been a fan of any pencil eyeliner at all. I gave up on pencil eyeliner a few years ago after wasting money on countless brands that never fail to smudge on me. Ever since I started watching YouTube, I notice that quite a number of beauty guru prefer pencil eyeliner than liquid eyeliner. It is understandable due to skin type and weather differences. So why are you reading this if I’ve given up on pencil eyeliner, eh? The story goes like this. I went back to work not too long ago and since it’s a different office environment, I no longer have the privilege to do my makeup in the office. So I have to rush everything in the morning and doing a precise eyeliner using a liquid pen is too time consuming for me especially when I’m doing my makeup in a dark room.

Today I’m going to share with you my favourite pencil eyeliners, tips, tricks and three different application method that you can master too.

Stila Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner and Make Up For Ever Aqua Eyes
I have oily lid so kohl or normal pencil eyeliner will not work on my lid. The only two brands and type that I find doesn’t smudge on me are Stila Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner and MAKE UP FOR EVER Aqua Eyes. I bought these from their 2014 holiday collection but fret not, these are permanent so you can get it from Sephora anytime.

Smashbox Photo Finish Hydrating Under Eye Primer & Photo Finish Foundation Primer: Not a necessity for others but a daily must-have for me

Primers are what deemed as optional product. Some people don’t think it’s necessary while some like me couldn’t live without primer for the face and for the eyes. My skin goes through ups and downs. Sometimes I had makeup meltdown and sometimes it’s as fresh as applied in the morning. It drives me crazy!

As I said before in my On The Rocks Holiday Collection, Smashbox is the least talk about brand. The only time I heard or saw Smashbox is either on Photo Finish Lid Primer or Full Exposure Palette. But the most talk about is still their wide range of primers. Overall there are a total of 10 primers within the brand, eight of them is face primer while two is lid primer and under eye primer.

First & Second Impression: Makeup Revolution Redemption Palette Essential Mattes, Cream Blush & Amazing Lipstick

As someone who is absolutely fanatic about discovering new makeup brands and new makeup products, I find myself looking for the best price and deal around town. I find it hilarious that my friends called me the best bargain hunter. They said I always make them spend 😛 . You’re missing out big time if you didn’t follow me on Instagram because that is where I shared the most about my daily discovery.

There’s a new makeup brand phenomena happening recently and a little birdy told me earlier that this brand is very affordable. If you still don’t know yet, Makeup Revolution is the brand that I’m talking about and they finally made it to Malaysia early December after massive promoting on the Instagram for the past few months. I was sent these to try and I’ve been using all of it diligently for nearly a month. I have mixed feeling about it so here’s what I can tell you based on my first impression as well as my second impression.

Estée Lauder Pure Color Envy Sculpting Eyeshadow 5-Color Palette #Fierce Safari: Back to the jungle as Jane

Hello again! I hope you enjoyed the first Estée Lauder week product review that I posted two days ago, which is the Estée Lauder Futurist Aqua Brilliance™ Compact Makeup. You’re here because you like what you read and you want more. Good to know because things have just gotten more interesting.

For the second Estée Lauder week product review, let’s talk about eye makeup. Let’s all go oohhsss and aahhhss on Pure Color Envy Sculpting Eyeshadow 5-Color Palette #Fierce Safari. It’s the most gorgeous shimmery gold and moss green eyeshadow I’ve ever seen.

Estee Lauder Pure Color Envy Sculpting Eyeshadow 5-Color Palette Fierce Safari
Interestingly, the Pure Color Envy Sculpting Eyeshadow 5-Color Palette was designed to complement the Pure Color Envy Shine Sculpting Lipstick that was launched just a few months ago. Not sure if you notice or not, Estée Lauder ventured into a modern and sophisticated look for Pure Color Envy Shine Sculpting Lipstick casing design. It is definitely something new and different for the company. Now, once again Estée Lauder goes into the same design direction and came out with this new compact design for the complementing eyeshadow palette. It defines modern, sleek, simple and elegant. The gold lining on the side defines powerful but yet the overall casing still maintain it’s feminine. Navy is also Estée Lauder’s corporate color so you will see everything of the brand in navy color, including this palette. The case is made of navy mirrored compact with Estée Lauder embossed logo on the bottom middle of the casing. This reflects the signature color cues of the brand. The new casing design also feature an innovative, magnetic closure. I absolutely love anything that are with magnetic closure and so there will be no more wrestling with the palette 😀
