Review - NARS Velvet Lip Pencil


Bought THREE of these Velvet Lip Pencil too from Bangkok.
Super super GOOD 2-in-1 lip pencil & lipstick combo .. 
true to its name, the texture is super velvety and one of the nicest lip pencil i've ever used ... glides on super easily and gives a soft matte finish ... u can either leave it like that for a beautiful matte look or dab on a lil bit of gloss to give the color a punch of shine :)

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! .. but the nearest you can get this product is from Bangkok and mind you they are not cheap .. 

NARS Eyeshadow in Night Breed & THE Multiple

went all crazy for NARS when i was in Bangkok last week .... bought the eyeshadow, the blush stick and few lipsticks. excellent product.

i just bought one eyeshadow - shimmery Black .. coz i hv too many eyeshadows already but i couldnt resist the black color so i decided to just get ONE and only ONE hehehe ... but i gotta tell you that the color payoff is great and i wont go out for a makeup job without this :)


got another THREE multi purpose blush stick .. ORGASM (their best seller), South Beach & Copacabana.
fantactic for a quick sheer and natural look .. can be applied on the cheek, eye and lips.
Copacabana is a good highlighter and South Beach & Orgasm are both as good to be used as blusher or lip stain. 
 
Pros : Nice packaging, nice colors
Cons : Quite pricey


L'oreal Super Liner & Instant Impact Felt Liner

am having an addiction on liquid liners lately ... hehe yea i am quite fickle minded .. i used to love gel liner and i switched to cake liner and i am now liking liquid liner .. but that doesnt mean i dont use the other 2 anymore coz i still do, depending on situation :)

i simply like liquid liner for the fact that its easy to use and save a lot of my time when i do makeup for clients...  

these 2 liners that i bought from Bangkok are great and wont cost you much (yes i do use drugstore stuffs sometimes) .. i got both for less than RM30 each :)
2 coats of these liners give a better color payoff and last all day ..
(i cant find the pic of the other liner i bought but the packaging is black in color with a gold color cover)

makeup ... for GIN

did a makeup yday for Gin ... she needs to attend a wedding dinner :)

on her eyes : just a simple black and brown shadow with false lashes. (NARS & Makeup Store)
on her face : liquid foundation, cream blusher (NARS orgasm) and some highlighting and contouring
on her lips : blend of 2 lipsticks (Sephora) and 2 lipglosses (Smashbox) , line with Sephora lipliner

Q & A Wednesday - Part 2


Hey there,

Got some questions by Siloy 诗蕊 .... and below are my 2 cents worth :)

Hi Bryan, I bought an eye gel liner from Kate and it's easy to smear after few hours i applied. May I know which brand of eye gel liner can be stayed long, won't smear and easy to be removed? Thanks thanksss...=)
A : Hi Siloy, there are 2 alternatives; 1. if pencil liner/gel liner tend to smudge a lot perhaps you might wanna try using liquid liner instead. 2. you can try Bobbi Brown gel liner, so far I've no problem with that (try setting it with powder)

Hi Bryan, I just found your blog. It seems a bit late to me, hehe..
I'm actually a Skin 79 user. I'm using their BB Cream as make up base, foundation and concealer. I'm recently looking for an under eye concealer which is willing to cover my "dark eye bag" T.T...do you have any good recommendation? Thanks,hehe...
Oh yea, my eye area is dry and I used to take care of them since i was 18 but still, fine lines...arghhhh..
A : Hi Siloy, try putting on liquid concealer instead of cream ones or put on concealer right after you've applied your eye gel/cream ... if its too dry, try not to set it with powder as it will only make it more apparent and worse ... oh and one more thing, don't over apply concealer or layer it too much with foundation.

Please do keep the questions coming :)
