(NAH) Review: Catrice Eyeliner Pen in Black

 

I was so excited when Guardian brought in Essence's sister brand, Catrice. Their makeup are just as affordable as Essence and when I saw this Eyeliner Pen in Black, I wanted to try it badly.

 

Oh boy, was I disappointed.

1) The pigmentation was not great and it could not give me a bold eye look.

2) Also, it stains my eyelids. It could only be washed away if you stayed in the shower long enough.  

3) To add on, you must store this pen standing down for the pigment to come out when drawing my eyeline.

4) I have used this for about a month or so only and the pigment feels like its drying up.

 

Not a single thing was I satisfied about. Do not even bother to try this product out.

(YAY) Review: Lush Fresh Handmade Cosmetics Breath of Fresh Air Toner Water Spray

 

It's been soooo long since I did a review on the current products I'm using.

 

Anyway, here's introducing Breath of Fresh Air Toner Water from Lush. I wanted to try their skincare products and this was the first product I ever picked up from Lush.

 

This is one of those very basic toning water you will find out there in the market. It is not harsh to your face and contains no preservatives. You can be sure that Lush products will not be harsh to your skin. I feel like this is a great refreshing spray and I use this everyday as a toner after a face wash.

 

Remember to take in a deep breath after spraying on your face because the smell just bring you out to sea and back again to calm you down.

Empties: September 2013

 

Hi everyone! It's been a crazy couple months for me. Just to give a quick update, I'm currently working at Lush Singapore and it's been busy busy busy. So since I'm working there, I'll try to do more review on Lush products since I'm trying new products from there.

 

Anyway, moving on, it's October already! So of course, here's my empties for September!

 

 

(YAY) Garfield Baby Wipes 100pcs

It has a slightly rough texture but I find that it removes makeup from my hands very effectively. This is my HG everytime I put on makeup and make a mess on my hands and table.

 

(YAY) ELF Booster in Sheer

Good if you want a sheer, light finishing powder.

 

(YAY) MBD Black Pearl Mask

This mask claims to brighten and whiten. I think it does brighten and moisturise, doubtful about the whitening part, or it might be that I do not use it frequently to see the results. But still, a happy girl because I'm a sucker for masks.

 

Daiso Natural Pack Black Peel Off Mask

 

(YAY) Biore Pore and Oil Clear Facial Foam with Micro Scrub 

Cheap and it works pretty well for me. Gentle on my face even with the scrub.

 

Lady Speed Stick in Shower Fresh

 

(YAY) Guardian Hydrating Face Mist

Works pretty much like its sibling; the nourishing face mist. However, I find this smells more pleasant. I like to use this to refresh my face after a wash or just to set my makeup. I think Guardian has discontinued its face mists though.

 

Guardian Nourishing Face Mist

 

(YAY) Opto-Pharm Buffelin Eye Drops

Definitely without a doubt a yes for me. A cheaper alternative than my previous P2 eye drop and works just as well. I'm a fan.

 

(YAY) Hello Kitty Raspberry 2 in 1 Shower Gel and Shampoo

Sweet raspberry scent. It makes my body AND my hair smell nice. This is a fun product to have!

 

Essence CoverStick in 01 Matt Sand

 

(YAY) Simply Active Deep Cleansing Facial Wipes 30pcs

This is suitable for all skin types and costs me like $1!! This is effective when use together a makeup cleansing product, and it makes my face feels refreshed. It does not remove makeup effectively alone, but again, for $1, it's no wonder. Overall, I'm still pretty happy with this product.

MBD Chocolate Truffle Sheet Mask  

 

Alright! So that's all for my September empties. Surprisingly, I'm pretty happy with the products I used up in Sept (:
