The Face Shop- Lovely ME:EX Cushion Blusher Vivid Peach 05

Hello hello,

This is my first time ever buying blush cause I have very pink undertone and without blush, it looks as if I'm already blushing ><" Nonetheless I wanted to try out a peach coloured blush. 

Ratings: 

Odour: I can't really describe the odour, but it smells nice, like flowers. Not an overpowering scent though.

Packaging: The packaging is super cute! It's 0.7g, very small and compact- great for traveling. It comes with a 'cushion' (haha) that you can use to apply the product with. 

Pigmentation: The colour pay-off isn't that good. It's very light and the colour barely shows up on the skin, so I think this blush is good for people who are just 'blush-starters.' With this blush it's very hard to over-apply. Have you lovelys seen girls who over apply their blush? EKKKK disaster !!

Texture: When I swatch the product onto my hands, it looks very chalky(appearance wise), but I noticed that when I apply it onto my cheeks, it's not chalky...If you take the product and rub it against two of your fingers, you will notice that it's very fine and smooth.  This is a matte blush, there is absolutely no shimmer to it.

Addition information: Made in Korea. Comes in four other colours : Romantic Pink (01), Sexy Orange (02), Pure Lavender (03), and Baby Pink (04).


Cushion ^^

Vivid Peach

Swatch & true to colour
Overall: 3.0/5 (because I wish the colour pay-off was better)

Tell me what some of your HG blushes are? I would definitely like to try out some more!

Hey Loves,

Today, Vancouver was absolutely beautiful! It was sunny and not too hot because there was a slight breeze. I went to downtown and thought I'd snap some pictures at science world. I wish everyday was like this in Vancouver! I totally love it :) Are you anticipating for your weekend ?
Gorgeous right?

OOTD


Clearly I need better photography skills ><"

Urban Decay Melt Down Makeup Remover

Hey Loves,

I've never bought makeup remover before, so this is my first time buying it! (I usually just use regular facial cleanser). I got this at Sephora awhile back when they had the 15% off promotion. This stuff is quite pricey! Note that this is an eye makeup remover.

Ratings:

Effectiveness: Non-irritating, gentle, and removes most of the makeup off, including waterproof mascara, and eyeliner. It does leave ever so hint of make-up left, but you can easily clean it up with a q-tip.

Odour: The first time I used this, I was taken back by the odour. The scent smells like grandma's foot cream or something. It was very disturbing and I was going to return it because of the smell, but then I got used to the smell afterwards so the scent doesn't bother me anymore.


Packaging: I like squeeze tube packaging because that way you can easily squeeze even the last drop of product- I believe.Good for traveling.

Texture: Creamy, ideal for those with drier/ combination skin. Non-greasy so no need to wash your face after you use it, in fact, the ingredients list that there are cranberry and raspberry seed oils, along with kukui nut and oat oil to help moisturize and replenish the skin.

Before you buy this remover, I suggest you smelling the product because most people will not be able to handle the scent.
Overall: 3.8/5 (Most of the points is taken off because of the scent)
