Want-it Wishlist : Shills

Assalamualaikum pretty ladies,

In my facebook, I've added a seller that posts their stocks online to sell but they actually have a shop called Cal's Beauty Studio in Gadong. They sell mostly products from Shills which is actually from Taiwan.

And the products that they sell is very tempting, though I find that the products are very overpriced, even with discounts there's hardly any different, it's still is very expensive for my budget.

Diamond Girl BB Cream

I found this available in Paloma too, but it's poorly stocked so I don't have any interest on buying it at Paloma, but still this picture gives me a curiosity to try.

Luxuty Chocolate Mask

 Sounds intriguing and delicious, I think I may purchase this but if I found it to be cheap! Not sure about the price they're selling.

Medicated Anti-Acne Roller Essence

An acne-prone person would be very curious about a product like this, I too being acne-prone, would love to try this out!

Oats Gentle Facial Peeling

Oatmeal is actually a very good core for your skin, I once used only oatmeal as my facial cleanser and gentle exfoliator so this is something I'd love to try.

Pore Free Acne Gel

From the name of this product, it should give you shrinked pores and acne-free, a 2 in 1 combo. 

Super Magic Spray BB Cream

This got me very curious, BB cream in Spray? Isn't that a little bit too weird that you spray BB Cream on your face, but somehow something that I would love to try.

Vanilla Milk Balm

This sounds delicious, nuff said.

Tourmaline Blackhead Mask

It claims to remove blackheads, it's something that I think I should try! :D

Skincare Review : The Faceshop's Vita Mask Sheets

Assalamualaikum pretty ladies!

These face masks are one of my least favorite, it might've been in my Worst Product post, if I were to write it up.

So, I think the ones that are with good performance is the Egg and Milk essence. Is it normal that the masks are tinted in their respective package color? 

It somehow gave a stinging sensation instead of what it promises in giving plump and cooled effect, I took it off before reaching the 5 minute mark, taking in mind I have a normal-oily skin. I usually don't have any negative reaction to any skincare products, except for acne products.

So I guess it's a bit of a let down that even a sheet mask can actually give me this effect. There's not much I can say. I'm banning my wallets from ALL The Faceshop's Mask Sheet.

Skincare Review : Jasaengsu's Masks

Assalamualaikum pretty ladies!

I was on a quest to find Purederm masks which is only available at Paloma, an exclusive beauty store that brings in different brands from Korea to US and Malaysia. When Purederm was out of stock, these was my savior and my replacement, though affordable, I found that other lines of the Jasaengsu masks are a bit expensive, the ones that has more effects than the normal collagen masks.

From here, I've bought all of the mask essence that are available, from Seaweed, Caviar, Pine Mushroom, Natural Royal Jelly, Vitamin E & C, Red Ginseng and White Orchid ( I think).

I love these sheet masks, they're comparable to Purederm, but they don't offer a lot of choices. Only collagen masks, they have a thin sheet with enough essence on it, and the essence are very cooling and refreshing as par with most sheet masks, they easily absorbs into your skin without leaving you with sticky essence, but it leaves you with smoother and plumper skin, so this is also good for a hydration boost.

Repurchase? Definitely.

Skincare Review : Holika Holika Face Masks

Assalamualaikum pretty ladies!

Another review on facial sheet masks, this time from the Holika Holika. I'm a big fan of Holika Holika  as most of my hauls are from Holika Holika and also they provide some very affordable prices on their products especially their Petit BB Creams! I will try and make a budget for the 2 others that I haven't had! :D

And another announcement is that, I've actually finished up my Watery Petit BB Cream, awesome right? Never knew that finishing up a BB Cream is possible, so I'm going to post it up on my March Empties :D Moreover to their Masks, I don't really remember how much it costs per mask, but I know it's affordable, because if it's very expensive, I wouldn't buy these :p

So anyways, I have Tomato, Pearl, Tea Tree, Aloe Vera, Blueberry

I haven't tried the Honey Essence yet, but I pretty much think that this is your ordinary sheet masks, cooling and relaxing but hardly any effects. Though I find that the Tea Tree essence smells horrid but somehow it dies down my raging acne breakouts so that's a  plus. But I won't be repurchasing these masks. Only if I have more budget, because I have other masks to try out.

Random Ranting : Collective Haul for month of December and January

Assalamualaikum,

Oh well, at least it doesn't do any much damage to my wallet, since I bought these in a period of two months. But nevertheless, this is still shopping. =='

I finally bought My Beauty Diary Masks! Yeay me! Hee :D

Here's the lippies, I bought Avon's Onyx Luster Tri-Lip Gloss in Peach Sparkle, Tony Moly's Milky Lip Tint in Milky Pink and Milky Peach, Silkygirl's Gloss Lipstick. Lip Ice Grape Lipbalm and The Faceshop's Color-Full Lip Palette #02.

Here's the swatches, I will do reviews on all the Tony Moly's Lip Tint.

And I'm very disappointed with Avon's lipgloss, cuz there's hardly any pigmentation, cuz I like the three layers, there should be AT LEAST real pigmentation instead of just the usual shimmery gloss, but I have to admit, I love the formula for not being to sticky.

For the Silkygirl's Gloss lipstick which is in #06 Honey Brown, it goes on very well, although it is almost the same shade as my Moisture Rich Lipstick in 04 Illusion, so I kinda feel that it's such a waste, I'm not a big fan of buying a lot lipsticks with the same shade, no matter if it's a different brand or a different range.

Here's the TFS's lip palette, clockwise from the upper left, the colors are Rose Brown, Shimmer Orange, Caramel Brown and Coral Bronze. Shimmer Orange and Coral Bronze being the glossy part, while the other two is matte, I love the colors for it's au naturale look. But somehow, I feel disappointed that upon applying it easily bleeds to your chin.

Eye Make-up

Again, Silkygirl's make-up, I bought these Funky Eyelights Pencil as a Buy 1 Free 1, I bought it in 04 Pure Purple and 02 Ocean Blue. These babies are creamy, it glides and the color pay-off is good, I use this to line this above my usual liner if I were to be very lazy to wear eyeshadows, so this is my back-up plans BUT they have that funky pencil-y smell on them and it doesn't smell so good. 

Also, I bought Tonymoly's Crystal Stick Eyeshadow in a pearly-white color. I always use this to highlight my inner corner and I actually use this to line my waterline, though proved useless because it's not waterproof.

Here's a Revlon Custom Eyes eyeshadow palette in Smoky Sexy. Love the color pay-off and it's blending-friendly.

It's one of the BB Cream from Holika Holika's Petit BB Range in Moisture and I bought it from my friend who owns this, because her and the BB Cream have a little misunderstanding. Review will come!

Beauty Diary Masks! YEAAYY!!! I bought the Black Pearl with free Bird's Nest Mask, also, my friend gave me a White Pearl Mask

Product Review: Kila Doll Tranexamic Acid Whitening Mask

Assalamualaikum,

With Paloma recently open their new concept store on the 1st Floor of Mall Gadong, I went there and bought Kila Doll Tranexamic Acid Whitening Mask, it comes in a box of 10 pieces

Ingredients: Pearl Extract, Job's Tear Extract, Rose Water, Tranexamic Acid, Niacinamide, Taraxacum Officinale(Dendelion), Rhizome/Root Extract, Dipotassium Chlycyrrhizinate, Prunus Yedoensis Leaf Extract, Acerola Extract, Cucumber Extract, Glycerin, 1.3 Butylene Glycol, Allantain, Sodium Hyaluronate, Xantham GUm, Peg-100 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate, Alpha-Arbutin, Methylisothiazolinone, Perfume and Water

Effect: Helps even skin tone, lighten spots, intensive whitening and firm and elastic skin.

This mask is for all skin types, there were actually more choices of this boxes and it was said that Kila Doll is sisters with My Beauty Diary, at most blogs, everybody loves using this facial mask brand.

I've been using this mask twice and I actually given my friend a sheet of this mask, and what both of us can say about this is that, it actually does what it says it does, it tightens your skin and it does brighten and whiten up your skin temporarily. I like the scent, it isn't overpowering and. Another this is that it has healing properties, it actually heals up my zit on my cheek, not that it helps clear up your pimples, but my pimple became a "cut" [from picking habits] and it actually heals up.

I know picking on zits are not good, giving acne scars and all that, but I seriously hate my pimples, there was once or twice that I actually practice self-control of not picking my pimples, it actually helps, temporarily. But then, when the Krakatao dies down, the Anak Krakatao comes back to haunt the SAME PLACE, which annoys me, so I just can't stand it and pick it with a needle [heck yeah] and used my Nexcare Acne Patch which helps absorbed the pus.

Back to the review on this mask, you know for a one-time use with a few effects seen is nice. I mean, I will repurchase this and try out the other masks that are available for this brand.

Random Ranting : Just the normal haul for me :p

Assalamualaikum,

Here's another haul and the mask from Jasaengsu are basically a repurchase except for Jasaengsu's Hi Collagen Essence Mask in Sealaver.

Jasaengsu's Hi Collagen Essence Mask in Caviar, Pine Mushroom and Sealaver

I regret buying this, because I just realized that I have dark circles and eyebags to take care of and I certainly don't have any wrinkles, yet. LOL, so I'm giving it to my love, hehehe.

Purederm's Anti-wrinkle gel patches

I bought this from a friend of mine, she had a severe reaction to the facial wipe, I swear her cheeks were so red hot that it could cook an egg, half-boiled, LOL! So I'm going to give this facial wipe a review.

Formula 10.0.6 Keep Me Clean Clarifying Facial Wipes

This is from Etude House, I bought their Make-up Removal Cream alongside from my Holika Holika Haul, the Daily Garden Olive Cleansing Cream. I can't believe that I bought 2 make-up remover in one go =='

Etude House Happy Teatime Milk Tea Make-up Removal Cream

This is my purchase from TONYMOLY, as you can see, most products from Tonymoly are given good reviews, so I decided to buy the pore tightening sleeping pack. A review on this product will be posted.

TONYMOLY's Dr. Tony Poreclear Tightening Sleeping Pack

There's another reason why I like having to buy something at Tonymoly, because they always are generous in giving me free samples, I was asking about the Tonymoly's Floria line to the Sales Assistant but didn't make a purchase for the Floria's product, so the SA is thoughtful in giving me the sample of the line I've inquired.

 

TONYMOLY's Whitening Cream and Emulsion Sample

Again, I'm taking advantage on the Buy One Free One offer, I bought these two lipstick, which I find so awesome because they are moisturizing enough without having to use lip balm.

Silky Girl's Moisture Rich in Pink Lady and Cafe Latte

Random Ranting : Paloma with new Concept Store

Paloma opened its new concept store on the 11th November, last Friday at the Mall Gadong, 1st Floor. I didn't go during its opening, but yesterday afternoon, went to see for myself. Seeing its new concept store makes me a greater fan even more, since I'm a regular customer there when it was at the 3rd floor, though I usually go there to replenish my Jasaengsu Face Masks supplies.

So, this new concept store is just so tempting. There's actually a lot more products from a lot of brands, this is definitely a win-win situation. There's just tons of face masks there and I'm interested in buying their Ice Cream Make-up Removal Cream in Aloe Vera and Strawberry, can't remember the other flavor though.

Also, there were BB creams from Magic Science, haven't heard of the brand but with the power of Google, some said it was good enough, so I might be trying it out with the VIP Card, I might be able to get a discount on it. I kid you not, there tons of BB Creams and I'm interested in the Black Pump BB Cream, not sure what's the exact name for it.

I actually see a lot of new brands, there's tons of promotion in the concept store. If I were to have a big budget, I would spent my money there buying a lot of there face masks. LOL! Seriously though, can't wait to go there again

EDIT: The actual brand for those BB Creams are not Magic Science, it's actually The Skin Shop. 

Random Ranting : Collective Haul for me

Assalamualaikum,

A collective haul, a guilty pleasure for me, LOL. So anyways, went to our local drugstore, Guardian to buy the necessities.

I don't really like the fact that the mask have a plastic protective sheet, causing the trouble to peel of the face mask from the plastic. LOL. I tried the chamomile mask and it was nice, it gave me the usual refreshing and moisturized face. No other effects whatsoever.

Guardian's Face Mask in Chamomile, Green Tea and Pomegrante

This is a Nexcare Acne Patch, I usually wear this on my breakouts, the big zits and it does wonders though you have to take care of that zit, once the pus is absorbed into the patch, make sure that you heal the former zits so it won't be scarring too much. 

Nexcare Acne Patch

This is a lens drop that I will review soon. 

Polylab's Lubricatting and Rewetting Drops

Silky Girl's cosmetic, bought it at Time Square because of the ridiculous discount rate, there's a  "buy one free one" selected items. Silky Girl's cosmetic is my hands-down favorite so far, not only it's of affordable and cheap price, the products are also of high quality. Not to mention that they always have sales going on.

This is the eyeliner, I wanted to try out a brown liner and decided to pick these up, I already have the black liner so I decided to give it to a friend. About the brown liner, I love it to bits, it gave my eyes an impact that I don't usually see while wearing black liner. 

Silky Girl's Double Intense Gel Eyeliner in Pure Black and Dark Brown

I'm a big fan of the Silky Girl's Blockbuster palette in Bare Classics because of the Neutral colors, there are some palettes available but then, when it comes to eye shadows, I usually try to stick on 1 color with different tones, I'm pretty much new to wearing make-up so I try to keep the colors comfortable to me then I would experiment everything. Hee.

So for this Violet Crush palette, I'm seriously in love with it, not only because I love purple in general but then, the colors are very pigmented and the colors are easy to blend to make a beautiful eye makeup.

 Silky Girl's Violet Crush Blockbuster Color Palette

I bought two of the same color, not that I'm stocking it because one mascara bottle can actually last me for years, I decided to give it to a friend. I kinda like this mascara so much, it gives volume and length to my lashes without even clumping it and still able to make it look like I have no mascara on.

Silky Girl's Lash Prism Waterproof Mascara in Blackest Black

This is the refills, the salesgirl actually knows how to make me give in and buy these, LOL. So I bought in two different but still dark shades, don't believe what you see in pictures, I actually have a dark skin.

Silky Girl's Silky White 2-Way Foundation Refill in Tan and Medium

Oh and did I tell you that they gave out free gifts for any purchases limit, since my purchases was a lot, I was given the items below.

I love this glitter liner, the only thing is, it's too funky to wear it to work/school but it has a really fine tip for easier application.

Blink Glitter Eyeliner in Gold Rush

This was given while I was paying for my purchase, a very generous sample tube of Nano White's Awakening Snow Wash, it gave me a bright glow right after cleansing with it, hopefully it gives a permanent result and I would definitely buy more.

Nano White Awakening Snow Wash

A duo eye shadow quad, and again I chose this because of the purple, LOL :p

Silky Girl's Duo Eye Shadow Cool

And so on, here's the make-up bag and the bag pack.

Here's the swatches for the eye shadows.
