I’m not a lip gloss fan. I have a handful of lip gloss but I never use them unless it’s emergency. And I had a case of emergency which require me to wear lip gloss. The emergency that I was talking about is none other than dry chapped lips 😛
I had this tube of RMK lip gloss in H-03 Holographic Strawberry Pink since last year. Since my Mac LipGlass in My Dear is hitting the pan, I dug this out from my stash.
The first time I twist the cap off, I was disappointed to find that the applicator is in a plastic wand. I don’t like the idea of using a plastic “spatula” to apply lip gloss on the lips! Boy I was so wrong. The applicator is actually a brush. As it was new the brush bristle is intact. Silly me.
This baby here may looked a bit too pinkish on the outside but it’s not as pink as it seem on the lips and even on the swatch below. If apply solely the color is MLBB (my lips but better). Normally I’d apply this on top of lip stick which is on top of a lip balm. Talking about triple protection lol.
I’m liking this lip gloss because it’s not sticky AT ALL, it doesn’t give you a white line on the inner of the lips and it’s long lasting. It feel just like you had lip balm on the lips instead of lip gloss.
I’m not sure if you can get RMK Lip Gloss H-03 Holographic Strawberry Pink here in Malaysia where I live as my friend got it for me straight from Japan.
Have a nice Monday!
For the last 1 week to the current week, I’m happy that I managed to finished a batch of products. Nothing makes me happy than digging into my lil store and open up new product to use. This new batch of newly opened products consists of makeups, skin cares and body care.
Crabtree & Evelyn Avocado,Olive & Basil Revitalising Bath & Shower Gel 250ml
If you like the smell of their hand therapy and body lotion from the same range, you’d definitely like the shower gel as well. I tried so hard not to be bias towards this shower gel and try alternating with other shower gel as well but failed. I can’t help it. It’s refreshing after using this shower gel!
Crabtree & Evelyn La Source Relaxing Body Lotion 250ml
I don’t know why this smell so nice in the shop but doesn’t smell that nice after using it at home. Hmmm??
Shiseido Accentuating Powder Blush #B2 Rosy Beige
I bought this from last year Isetan anniversary sales for RM40. As I’m kinda tanned recently due to sun burn, the color appears orangey on me. The color doesn’t stand out at all on my tan skin. Nevertheless, I like the blush.
Clarins Powder Compact #30 Sandy Beige
This is suppose to be “natural” on all skin tone but as mentioned before that I’m currently quite tan, this lovely powder makes me even darker. Why did I said lovely? This compact powder is superb!! I like the fact that this gives me matte finish which so far I have seen none that can provide matte finish, the oil control is so good that my face is oil free whole day. Only some oil secretion on my nose which I just use a tissue to gently pat away. That was it. I would definitely buy Clarins’ compact powder next time!
Crabtree & Evelyn Avocado, Olive & Basil Skin Revitalising Both Lotion 30ml
This is from Avocado, Olive & Basil mini gift set worth RM90 which I got as GWP from my recent haul of C&E. It’s so moisturizing yet non-oily and not forgetting the wonderful scent.
Clarins *New Improvised* Clarins HydraQuench Intensive Serum Bi-Phase 15ml
Review: Read here
This is one of the many bottles which I’ve gotten as GWP. The full size is 30ml so I’m always happy whenever the BA gave me this. I only use this at night time as this serum is bi-phase. I wouldn’t wanna have an oily face on the day :). One of the best hydrating serum I ever used.
Clarins Energizing Emulsion 30ml
Another GWP which I’ve gotten in Feb 2012. I bring this small lil bottle in my handbag to work everyday and I’d apply this whenever my legs are tired from all the standing and walking. Don’t really like the smell though.
Clarins Pore Minimizing Serum 15ml
Review: Read here
Last bottle to go! After this I’d stop purchasing for a while as I wanted to try other serum. Can’t apply too many serum in a go lol. I’d be back on this serum in no time 😉
Clarins UV Plus HP Day Screen High Protection Tinted Version 30ml
Review: Read here
My all time fav sunscreen which I have no intention to change nor try other brand. I have two 30ml of this in my stash. Clarins is about to launch another version which is the Beige. Although there’s a best buy set currently with a bottle of Tinted version, I’d like to try the Beige too so I’ll wait for the new arrival 🙂
Clarins Shaping Facial Lift 50ml
Review: Read here
A serum which doesn’t need any introduction :). This is the bottle that changed my beauty routine. After that it’s all history.
Clarins Instant Eye Make-Up Remover 125ml
Review: Read here
My current eye makeup remover. This bottle is actually bought from Clarins warehouse sales last year for RM50. This reminds me of Lancome Bi-Facil which I like too. This is the best eye makeup remover that I discovered. Although it’s kinda pricey, one bottle really last long so no worries.
Crabtree & Evelyn Avocado, Olive & Basil Ultra-Moisturising Hand Therapy 25ml
You can see that more than half of the tube is already gone! That is how much I love it. This particular tube is in my handbag at work. Luckily I have another 7 tube in stock 🙂
Clarins Cleansing Milk With Alpine Herbs 50ml
This is meant for Normal or Dry Skin. Too bad. Cause the smell is divine. Anyhow the efficiency is the same with Cleansing Milk With Gentian; removing makeup.
RMK Lip Gloss H-03 Holographic Strawberry Pink
Now I know why RMK lip gloss is so famous among reviewers! This is indeed a good lip gloss. If you’re like me who doesn’t like lip gloss at all and hated the stickiness of it, fret not. This is not sticky at all and because of that it doesn’t give you a white line on the inside of the lips.
Clarins Instant Smooth Line Correcting Concentrate 3ml
Another full size item redeemed from last year Oct 2011 Clarins Club Beauté Beauty Rewards Redemption. This is very similar to Instant Smooth Perfecting Touch. The only different is I felt that this is much more watery, smoother and melts immediately upon spreading.
Last but not least, 2 more body care from Clarins.
Clarins Body Treatment Tonic Oil 100ml
I purposely bought a 2011 Christmas set which have this in it. I have the Body Shaping Cream for the longest time but feel that it’s better to use with this body treatment oil. Will do a review on this soon.
Clarins Body Shaping Cream 200ml
Another full size item redeemed last year from Clarins. I’ve used this alone and felt the efficiency but feel that it’s better if I use this with Body Treatment Tonic Oil for better, faster result. Will do a combine review soon.
Phew. That was a lot :). Have a good weekend.
