September 2014 Favourites: Beauty, beauty tools and decor

We’ve come to the 2nd instalment of favourites of the month didn’t we? 😀 . Just as I’ve explained in the previous August 2014 Favourites, all the items listed here has yet to made its way to the blog. I might or might not do an individual review after this. Some product yes, some don’t need to!

In this September 2014 Favourites, I have a good mix of beauty, beauty tools and also decor. I’m kinda into decorating mood at the moment. No surprise here since you’ve seen the amount of trips and time spent at home essential stores lately from my Instagram.

September 2014 Favourites
I thought of doing 10 favourites product every month but for this month’s favourites I am keeping it short as I’m having migraine for the past few days. When the migraine hit, all I want to do is to just sleep and whine. Nonetheless I’m going to present eight of my favourites to you. So let’s start with the beauty, shall we?

Maybelline White Superfresh Long Lasting UV Cake Powder: Doesn’t impress me much

Most people I know are into liquid foundation and my weakness has always been face powder. It is the one out of the few makeup item I go through like no other’s business. I absolutely hate the sticky feeling of liquid foundation and I just cannot leave the house without dusting powder all over my face. Truth to be told, I was patiently waiting for L’Oreal Mat Magique to be made available in Malaysia several months ago after watching the review on it from ClickNetwork on YouTube. Boy I was sold! So when Maybelline out of the blue launched the White Superfresh Long Lasting UV Cake Powder, I was intrigued but not intrigued enough to make a purchase. L’Oreal finally launched Mat Magique just a tad bit later than Maybelline and this curious cat was so tempted to know what’s the dealio with the two. I finally bought the Maybelline White Superfresh Long Lasting UV Cake Powder when Watsons was offering a RM3 off from RM23.90 lol.

Would I thought of buying this if it’s not for the discount? No. I wouldn’t even thought about buying it. I have been reading lots of mix review on this product which explains why I have a reserve on this.

Why Maybelline HyperSharp Liner Laser Precision in Intense Black suits my sensitive, tearing eyes + Winged eyeliner tutorial

It is seriously eyeliner olympic season now girls. With so many brands releasing numerous types of eyeliner product into the market recently, one particular eyeliner pen stood out the most among the rest. It is none other than the NEW Maybelline HyperSharp Liner Laser Precision.

I am a.b.s.o.l.u.t.e.l.y obsessed with winged eyeliner-do. It’s funny I said that because one year ago, I know nuts about eyeliner what more drawing one! Let’s face it. I have a typical Asian Chinese eye shape that is probably not the easiest shape to draw onto. The biggest mistake I made is that I never study my eye shape before getting on the eyeliner bandwagon. So I practise and practise and practise. I have tried almost all the method there is to get the perfect winged eyeliner. I was fine with one particular way of eyelining until a good friend of mine told me the winged is a little bit droopy. Droopy? What droopy? That’s the shape XiaXue and Cheeserland had! 😀 . You’re in luck today because today I’m not only going to introduce you to the new liquid eyeliner from Maybelline but I’m also going to share with you one easy method to do winged eyeliner, which I just learnt and mastered haha!

Maybelline Pure.Liquid Mineral Healthy Natural Liquid Foundation SPF18 PA+++: My current foundation acquisition and love

Ever since I started to use liquid foundation last year, I couldn’t stop thinking about buying more. When a brand launched a new season collection makeup, I used to look at blush first. Now I look at foundation. Last time I can never understand why anyone would keep buying foundation one by another. I can understand why now that I’m a part of it. It’s crazy!

My latest drugstore brand liquid foundation acquisition is none other than Maybelline Pure.Liquid Mineral Healthy Natural Liquid Foundation SPF18 PA+++.

I’ve always wanted to go L’Oreal Group warehouse sales but each time they organise one, it’s either too far or I’m too busy. This time around they had it at a place where I deemed as “far”, nonetheless I dragged my mum along and drove all the way there on a Sunday afternoon. I was there to look for Maybelline Mineral Power Natural Perfecting Concealer but unfortunately there was none. In fact there was no concealer sighted. All the makeup products there are kinda “old” and these old and dirty packaging is such a turn off. I look around L’Oreal True Match foundation and suddenly the BA came over to help me, which I appreciate because I was lost in the sea of L’Oreal foundations. They had so many types! I ask about Maybelline Pure.Liquid Mineral Healthy Natural Liquid Foundation and she said that’s more drying. With lightning immediate speed I dropped everything and concentrate on that instead because I do have oily skin and dry foundation is my thing.

Review: Maybelline Color Tattoo 24Hr Eyeshadow #Tenacious Teal & #Edgy Emerald – Probably The Best Vibrant Drugstore Cream Shadow In A Pot

I probably wouldn’t consider buying any cream shadow because I have oily lids and cream shadow crease on my lids like nobody business. When Maybelline released a mini series of Color Tattoo 24Hr Eyeshadow collection, I waited for every other beauty blogger to review it first before deciding. All reviews and feedback that I read said this cream shadow live up to it’s name – Color Tattoo 24 Hours and doesn’t crease at all so you bet I wanted these badly. I don’t do brown, earthy neutral tone so I was eyeing on blue and green. Then I had a problem. Tenacious Teal (the blue one) will not be available simultaneously with other color. It will only be released a month late.

Everyday after lunch I would walk to the only Guardian pharmacy at my office building and stuck my head in to peep if Tenacious Teal is available. Many times I was disappointed until one day. As usual I casually stuck my head into the left side of Guardian pharmacy main door as I was heading to Cold Storage. I thought I was delusional but I took another look and finally Tenacious Teal is in! Maybelline Color Tattoo 24Hr Eyeshadow is retailing at RM19.90 each which is really a steal for a whopping 4g product. I grabbed Tenacious Teal (blue) and Edgy Emerald (green) and only paid RM15.92 each after 20% store discount!

I love colors especially my eyeshadow. Maybelline Color Tattoo 24Hr Eyeshadow fits the bill. But fret not, not only they have vibrant blue, orange, green and purple but they also do pretty taupe or brown which is a hit among everyone I know.

What’s in My Makeup Pouch?

Just a random thought of posting on what’s in my makeup pouch when I took out a lipstick to reapply after breakfast. I realized the content in my pouch is getting more and more!

I picked this purple Estee Lauder pouch because I wanted to put just ten three items like a mirror, a lip balm and a lipstick. Without me realizing I’ve started to put more and more stuff in the pouch until it’s too full to be zipped! Okay. Gonna change to a bigger pouch next week :). Here’s a sneak peek at what I brought to work today.
