Make-up Review: Maybelline Color Tatto 24Hr in Bad to the Bronze

Assalamualaikum pretty ladies!

I am very sorry for the lack of updates, I am now reaching my final semester and it's been hectic, we've managed to complete more than what we could actually thought to achieve. Our Android application  looks so much better now! Alhamdulillah, if we were to commercialize our application, I think parents and children would absolutely love to have it.

So enough of the techie talk, here's yet another review in the blogosphere for Maybelline's Color Tattoo. I am absolutely skeptical in buying this as I don't really use cream eyeshadows so much.

I just bought one just to satisfy my curiosity on these little pots of shadow, I'd say color me impress! Although the swatches are harder to see as it somehow is the same color as my body's skin tone except for the fact that it is shimmery.

It is very creamy and the color is just nice when applied over my eyelid, it lasts a long time, I guess by 12th hour, it starts to fade nicely. I really love to use this as an all-over eyeshadow rather than using this as a base. Although the colors are nice and etc, it did come to my mind to buy more of these and also to repurchase this if I am able to finish it, but as much as this is a good product, I hardly even use this shadow, only when I am at school re-applying makeup. I'm more of a palette girl, so this is a little inconvenient for me but that's just me anyways! :D

Make-up Review : NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk

Assalamualaikum pretty ladies!

I'm sorry for being so quiet these past few days, I blame this to all of the things that I have to take care of, also with Syawal coming in, I have lesser time to make time for my blog.  I will post up few FOTDs that I've taken picture of while Raya. InshaAllah, so I'm here with just a short review.

I bought this at Sephora for RM19? Correct me if I'm wrong, this is one of the famous eyeshadow bases that has been mentioned all over the beauty world. I do have another in the shade Gold, but I never seem to understand how this could be the talk of the beauty world.

It is creamy, although I was expecting it to be very white, it was less white than I imagined. But I do think that it is a little too white to put on my waterline, as I think it would not really make my eyes look brighter and awake, it just made it look sick. I think I'll stick to nude colors on my waterline.

As a base, I think there's hardly any differences between this and my Essence eyeshadow base as they both give the same degree of pigmentation to my eyeshadows and also, it lasts as much as 6 hours, which is not a big deal for me since I usually wipe of my makeup at noon.

I won't say that this item is a must-have but I think I can stick to other cheaper options before I try my hard to retrieve this item.

Make-up Review : Bling Eyeshadow Palette

Assalamualaikum pretty ladies!

It does seem like I can never get enough of neutral eyeshadow, I bought these from Daiso and I regret myself for refraining not to buy one of these more, because I really love them to bits and it does somehow has a higher quality than I actually expected.

There's actually only four eyeshadows and one of them is actually just an eyeshadow base, which is neat! I didn't really expect it to be an eyeshadow base as I thought it was just another skin-toned eyeshadow colour, I realized it was a base when I saw that it was sweating when I arrived to Brunei. 

So anyways, it's just a normal neutral eyeshadow shimmery but almost matte palette, although the eyeshadows are surprisingly very buttery when applied that it has no problems of blending onto my eyes. I really love love the cream orange-y shade as it brightens up my eyelids so nicely and the white eyeshadow is surprisingly nice, it doesn't really give a stark white shade when blended.

The eyeshadow base however, is a little on the sticky side, it does give a little difference of pigmentation as you can see from the upper side of the swatch. It doesn't really stay that long on my lids, 5 hours max, so this might be a good palette for when you are just going out for errands but using this to work or school might be a bad move as you don't want to see creased eyeshadows by the end of the day.

My Make-up Collection : Make-up Bases (Face Primers and Eyeshadow Primers)

Assalamualaikum pretty ladies!

This just a collection of my face primers and eye primers. Not a lot, but enough to last me for more than 6 months? LOL.

Essence

A lovely make-up base from Essence, but not fond on it caking up my foundation around my nose area. But the eyeshadow base is purely awesome, a great base for my eyeshadows, gives more colors and also gives longevity to my MUA pen eyeliner.

Holika Holika

My holy grail primer, the Silky Veil Primer, I don't know when I'd be reviewing this up, because this is my second purchase and I'm running out of it! The HD Skinny Primer Base is pretty much a very great base for my makeup, but I still prefer my Silky Veil Primer :p

MUA Professional

The famous budget brand from UK, I love the face primer, but I don't think it can stand the equatorial climate, so I rather use this basically at night, when I might be lazy to mix up my foundation with my BB Cream. Though I love their eye primers.

Revlon

A new addition to my collection, primer from Revlon Photoready, I think this has the potential to replace my Silky Veil Primer, but I'll be watching out for other primers :D

Make-up Review : MUA Professional Eye Primer

Assalamualaikum pretty ladies!

I am pretty content with my Essence Eyeshadow Base, but I did order this earlier before I found Essence. It costs me around B$5? So I am definitely not missing out in anything as it is almost the same price as Essence's Eyeshadow Base, only cheaper by 90 cents, but who's counting really? lol.

A creamy consistency, a nude color doesn't really transfer any color to your lids, giving you an invisible canvas to your eyelids.

I somehow dislike the stickiness it gives, this primer, but I think it was fairly useful to bind the shimmers together,

A poor color choice in my part, I should've used other palettes to highlight the effectiveness of this primer even if it is sticky. But it does really make your eyeshadows more pigmented, even when I use my Revlon five-eyeshadow pallete with the primer, it does enhance the pigmentation.

A repurchase? Maybe, but I love my Essence Eyeshadow base more, so I'd definitely use this once in a while to finish off the product.

Make-up Review : Essence's I ♥ Stage Eyeshadow Base

Assalamualaikum pretty ladies!

With Essence, AGAIN, LOL, so okay, today we're going to talk about eyeshadow base and to tell you the truth, this is my second eyeshadow base, the first being NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil, lol. So anyways, some reviews about this base also compared it to Urban Decay's Primer Potion, which is something exciting because I can't really afford one.

The tube this product is contained is actually small, but I don't mind that, it has a lot of products inside and this is the "less is more" type, you won't need a lot to cover your eyelid, just one dab of it, maybe?

What I forgot to take pictures of is that, this tube contains your normal doe-foot applicator. It has a creamy liquid-y texture, color is nude, almost like a liquid concealer. It blends out nicely giving a nude canvas to your eyelid, giving them a brightened up look, you can just use this alone to brighten up or apply eyeshadow after the base.

As you can see below, it does give impact on my Stay All Day Long Lasting Eyeshadow, sorry for recycling pictures, but then, why not. The eyeshadow base is very impressive though, even for my first eyeshadow base, it last me longer than 8 hours and I don't normally have any encounters of oily lids after 12 hours, so this doesn't crease up on me after the 8-hour marks, still making sure that my eyeshadows and eyeliner still looking fresh as it possibly can.

A repurchase? Yes sure, I won't mind having to buy this over and over again without trying other brand unless it's affordable.

Random Picture : Hauls for the month of June. I hope! :P

Assalamualaikum pretty ladies!

Made a few hauls and hopefully, this is the only cosmetic hauls I'll make for the month of June as I really need to save up! Oh and soon, you'll be seeing my hauls from UK being brought back to Brunei too!

A trip to Miri and I only bought this Bio-Oil that has been given good reviews since its cheaper there than in Brunei, I've actually bought it and I seriously love that Watson's SA cuz I actually took one of the Bio-Oil's packaging where it is a bit worn and she replaced it with a new stock :D

Missha's Haul! So okay, I only bought the lip tint in Moisture Orange, and got the Red Gingseng Mask as a GWP! Entered another contest with Missha and won this awesome 5-colors lip palette! Reviews for both will come soon! :D

Oh well, I just can't stay away from Essence, can I? LOL! Give me a heads up on what you want me to review first ;) please don't hesitate to comment below!
