The Flower Silky Makeup Base review

description : formulated with edible petal extract and powders, this makeup base softens skin and evens out tone for a silky smooth finish.

It was my first time to purchase face makeup product from The Faceshop. Used to I have the gel eyeliner, but it's just ok, nothing special. And it was my first time either to get myself makeup base which has color. I got mine in Light Purple, another choice is green.

The reason I myself makeup base with color which also known as corrector, is for brighten my dull and tired skin. Some brand has lots of color selections, blue, pink, white, beige, silver, etc.

I will start my review with the packaging. It's humongous ! I don't think it's necessary, as the quantity is only 35ml. Laneige Makeup Primer is 50 ml, but more handy and didn't waste ur makeup box space.

When I pumped out the makeup base, what I saw is a very light purple fluid which the texture is light and watery. It makes the makeup base easy to blend and absorp into our skin. When I smelled it, there's a light flower scent. Still acceptable rather than Laneige skincare product.

Basically, I didn't see any difference when I used this product. I didn't see that my skin look fresh or oh-so-healthy. It's still same like I used my other primer.
So I think this product is just fine for me. I didn't have any breakouts or make my face oilier.

I will keep it but I won't re-purchase when it's finished. I want to try from MAC, but Stephen said I don't need it :D Yves Saint Laurent has same product called Radiant base, which I love so much and I want to get it ! Soon I get it, I will tell u why I love it :D

First haul in June ! Yay ! Super Happy Me !!

Today I was planning to go to Pavillion and got myself Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk and Guerlain Parure Extreme. But, I had no idea, after I reached there, I felt like I don't want to buy. As a result, I didn't get anything in Parkson.

Other than Giorgio Armani and Guerlain, I wanted to buy Benefit High Beam. I really want to try highlighter as I never try. But then, I saw the packaging looks quite small and the price I think just not worthy, so I canceled.

Went here and there for hours. Here's what I got

Yups, something from MAC, Skin Food and The Face Shop. I never fancy stuff from there, but today I gave myself a chance to try the products. As for MAC, I gave them second chance after I was very dissapointed with the Blot Loose Powder. And I think it's too much for second chance =p

See ? Now u understand why I said it's too much ? I bought 7 items and got 2 samples from the SA, he's a very nice and smart guy. I learnt a lot from him. Yes, it's a guy and before this, he worked for Shu Uemura.
From the above (clockwise) : Refined Golden from Style Warrior, Mineralize Skinfinish in Light, MAC Mineralize blush in Dainty, MAC Angled Brush 168, The Face Shop Silky Makeup Base, The Skin Extra BB Cream sample from The Face Shop, Skin Food Lime Secret Shine Base , MAC Prep+Prime, MAC Brush Cleanser, 2 samples which are cleansing oil and studio fix moisturizer and the last is MAC Mineralize Blush in Gentle.

Phew...So tired to read all the above, right ? =p

Total damage ? A LOT ! LOL. But I was (am) very satisfied with what I got, especially from MAC. I manage to get other stuffs and I hope same SA who serves me later :D

I can get MAC by online which is cheaper, but I prefer to buy directly from the shop because I get different feeling and satisfaction. Furthermore, someone serves me and I can make sure I get right stuffs for me.
It must be weird if u follow my blog since the first time. As I am not MAC fans and never thought I would end up buy so many things from there =p

I have ordered MAC by online, let's what I got later =p
Skin Food Lime Secret Shine Base, I was interested with this since I saw my Korean friend using it. It was much cheaper than Benefit High Beam but same result. And I like Skin Food packaging more. I never think that Benefit is worthy to spend, I just don't like it. It looks interesting just because the packaging and the name. But I prefer something simple.

Start tomorrow, I will try to use highlighter and bronzer. I want to learn more things about makeup. The MAC SA taught me how to put bronzer, under eye concealer, eyeshadow, use eyebrow pencil and how to contouring and highlighting. That's why I dare to spend so much money. He's the best SA I ever know and I really appreciate what he did.

The Face Shop Silky Makeup base, it has color and I got myself light purple which to brighten ur dull skin and look fresh. I had no idea why I bought this, kinda regret, but I have not tried it yet, so let's hope it brings good result =) This is the first time I got myself makeup base that has color though. Mostly mine are in white and transparent color.

I realized that my skin looks dull and tired, but good thing is most SA said I have good skin complexion xD

I will do review soon ! Cheers everybody ! Happy MAC day !
