Weekend haul and some packages

I just went home and I reached my computer immediately. Well, nothing special, just want to share my happiness. First picture is my haul today, several hours ago. I bought Revlon Colorstay eyeliner in Black, high raved in MUA, so I had no doubt to get it. I need this to use as my daily makeup. I don't want to use Bobbi Brown gel eyeliner for daily. I also got 2 lipsticks from Maybelline, they have promotion BOGO 50%, I just couldn't resist it. I got Cranberry Pink and Sweet Coral, both of them are gorgeous. Give a look :)
The second picture is the packages that I got this week. Actually I got 3 packages, including the one that I got from Ryan. The second package is NARS Oasis, which I swapped with NARS Dolce Vita that I owned.
I wore it today and I would say is just OK, nothing special. At least it's not as bad as I thought. I was thinking it would make my face look dirty. However, I got it from swap so I didn't lose any money, just sell it.
The last package is Dior. I got the DIOR Pure Light fluid foundation and DiorKiss Luscious Lip Plumping Lipgloss.
I used the foundation today, it's so sheer, light texture and coverage. Bobbi Brown Skin Foundation SPF 15 is much better. If you already have flawless skin and need something to create brighter, healthier skin, this one could be your choice. If you have acne spot, just skip it.
I am so happy today and I can't wait for another package.
Enjoy ur weekend :)

Lovely package from M'sia

I am so happy today. When I went home I saw a lovely package on the table. And it's from M'sia. I thought it takes two weeks, but I was wrong.
Let me share with you what I got



Urban Decay Complexion Primer Potion - Pore Perfecting
NARS Powder Blush in Mata Hari
Urban Decay Baked Bronzer in Toasted

Special thanks to Ryan for being so patient with me. I am a bad customer.
I wish Ryan open US makeup spree in Indonesia.
I can order anything, anywhere, anytime.
It's so silly when once I asked someone to order Kiss My Face moisturizer for me but she refused as she said it's big but cheap, she wouldn't get lots of profit from there.
Damn silly. You can quote a bit higher since it's heavy, right ?
Ryan is much smarter than you.
Boo.

Btw, today is my first day working and it's my first job as well. I hope everything is going well so I don't have to use my parent money anymore.
I hope I can get higher salary one day, of course for spending it for makeup :D

My favorite blusher from La Femme Blush on Rouge

I should say that I love them all :) I only have 5 pcs but I really love the colors and satisfy with what I got. I wish to buy again, but it's troublesome as I have to order from them in M'sia.
I have Crystal Cafe, Framboeisia, Pink Velvet, Coral Spice and another one that I forgot since I put in a jar. They are fragile so when it's arrived 2 of them were shattered.
Basically all of them are pink, but have different affect to ur cheeks. The colors they have look different and unique, not like common pink from most brands have.
Love it ! Seems like I can't get enough to tell you what I think about this blusher. I wish I can collect all of them :)

My favorite blusher from MAC

I have few of blushers and some of them are my favorite. And in this post, I will share with you what my favorite from MAC. Of course I have other blusher from various brands, but let's do it slowly.
In this picture I have :

• Joyous from Beauty Powder collection, I love the color, peach with gold sparkles and I look so fresh whenever I'm using it
• Dainty, my first MAC blusher and it's mineral blush. Pink with shimmer helps me to glowy. It has smooth texture and quite pigmented.
• Gentle, mineralize blush that I got together with Dainty. Steven ( SA of MAC) really made a good choice for me. The color looks purple-ish but when I apply this, it looks plummy.
• Plum Foolery. I never thought before that plum color would suit my fair skin tone. But this one is a really nice blush that I will repurchase.
• Pink Swoon. Most girls out there love this blush and it's a must have from MAC. this is my hubby favorite honestly, not me. For it's just ok.
• Pinch O Peach. Naturally blush look healthy and pretty color is enough to tell how I love this blush. However I don't think this as a peach blusher, it's more to pink side.
• Summer Rose from Rose Romance. First time I had this, I hate it. I could not see any color when I tried to apply it. It's not pigmented at all, so I need to swipe several times, which is worth it. It's not a common pink, I feel it's kinda unique color with a nice sheen.
• Angel. It has been discontinued. Too bad as I like it :) A bit pale but suits me well.

I am planning to get another blusher from MAC such as Style, Sunbasque, Margin, Well Dressed, etc. But not now, since I have NARS fever hehe..
I am waiting for NARS Oasis and Mata Hari to come. I already placed an order for NARS Amour too. Too bad Sephora doesn't have NARS in Crazed.
Not only NARS, but other blusher as well. I will share with you once it's arrived :)
I decided to take a short time to not get anything from MAC, so I won't feel so bored :P

Another MAC Blusher to add in my collection

I received these blushers few days ago, but I was too lazy to post about it.
So here I go, show off what I got.
MAC Powder Blush in Mocha and Coygirl.
Coygirl seems like a unique color, it's purple in the pan and I have yet try it out on my cheeks.
Mocha is pink with a bit plum, I fell in love since I tried it at MAC counter and now I have it :)
I still have lots of MAC Powder Blush that I want to get, but I think I want to get rest from MAC for a while and try something new.
I can't wait to get other blushers that I already ordered. I have to wait around a month. That's a long time to go, hope it's worthy :)

Ciao !

Look what I found !

Yesterday I went to mall because I was so bored.
As usual, I visited MAC counter, played with the blusher. How I wish can get them all *LOL
To my surprise, when I played with those blushers in the display, I found powder blush that had been discontinued.
When I swatch it on my hand, it looked pretty, almost similar with Well Dressed.
Did u get the clue what blusher it is ?


It's MAC Powder Blush in Angel ! It's pinker than Well Dressed when u swatch it on ur hand, even though it looks same in the pan. Angel is matte, while Well Dressed has silver shimmer in it. Both of them are pretty, but I got this one first, as I'm afraid it will OOS.
If this one OOS, I had no chance to get it next time.
I can't wait to use it :)

Other than Angel, I found Cute ! It's paler than Angel and Well Dressed. I think it's not flattering. I should look like Snow White, so it would nice on me, NC20 skintone :)

Btw, what is ur favorite LE blusher from MAC ? Share with me !

Bubye !

My bf's favourite :D

Last week my bf asked me to wear new blusher that I got from him. So between Pink Swoon and Pinch O Peach, I chose Pink Swoon. Both of them are popular in Makeupalley. So I think I made a good choice to get them both :D
When me and my bf met, he asked what blusher that I used. I told him it's Pink Swoon that I got from him. He looked amazed and he said that he liked it so much :D
He said it's the most natural blusher that I ever worn and it's the greatest among those blushers that I had used. Usually he could see that I use blusher, but with Pink Swoon I looked naturally blushing :p
I think I have to learn how to use blusher to look more natural.
Maybe I used too much and looked fake.
Well thanks to my bf, with his honesty I knew my mistake xD

Back to MAC old collection

picture credits to beautyaddict.blogspot.com

Still remember this collection ? MAC Beauty Powder Blush collection in March 2008.
I was looking for it as I like the blushers from that collection. I am late as a MAC collector. And I just can't ignore this collection, I love blusher so much and I had seen the swatches. So lovely.
Two days ago finally I had one of them which my most favorite among other blusher based on the swatches.
I got it by online, I joined a forum and she had MAC Joyous which she decided to sell. She only used it for 3 times and sell it for RM 70.20 including shipping if convert to Ringgit.
I don't need to think twice.
Two days ago I received it. Very fast seller. I paid on 1st Sept, I received it in the next day.
The color is peachy almost to orange I think.
I have yet wear it, tomorrow I will meet my bf and planning to use it :D

Lovely gifts from the loveliest

Hehe, not sure if got that such kind of word, loveliest =p
It doesn't matter, bcoz in my post here, I have lots of thing to share.
So yesterday, I was going to meet my bf and I reached the shopping mall at 10.30. So early, huh ? But then, my bf had not reached the place yet since it;s quite far from his house.
So, I decided to kill my time with browsing to MAC Counter. A sales assistant name's Eva greeted me, she's quite friendly so I asked her this and that.
I asked about the prices of the brushes, then start from there we talked a lot. I told her that MAC Malaysia is much cheaper and mostly I bought MAC there. She share with me lots of things that I didn't know before.
First, MAC Indonesia is franchise, different with MAC M'sia which is under Estee Lauder Company. Bcoz of that reason, MAC Indonesia doesn't have MAC Pro Member.
Second, MAC Indonesia could not follow all those collections, which mostly launch every month. Because MAC Indonesia has to register all those product to BPOM, an organization from government who check about the safety, etc.
Third, MAC Pro member in US got 40% discount, correct me if I'm wrong.
Fourth, MAC Hong Kong is the cheapest among all Asia countries.
I got lots of acknowledge from her and she served me well, so I decide to get something. Honestly, I ady had my shopping list. MAC Powder Blush in Pink Swoon and Well Dressed. But when I swatched it, Well Dresses is too light. So I took Pink Swoon. While she was serving other customer, I browsed the counter and I found Pinch O Peach on the display and I asked for the tester so I could swatch on my hand.
It's a nice and lovely color so I decided to take it.
Seems like two items were not enough for me, kept browsing and I remembered that I need something for my eyebrows. I want it to look neat and nice, she suggested me the MAC Brow Shader.
She tried it on me and I love it. After another half hour, my bf came and bought it for me as my b'day gifts. A bit late, but it's better than nothing.
Yesterday we had great time, we talked a lot and shopped a lot =p
Here's my haul

MAC Pink Swoon, Pinch O Peach and Brow Shader in Walnut/Ivory.
2 brushes which have good quality, love it. I bought this for Brow Shader.
2 lipsticks from Maybelline, Naturally Nude and Revlon, Pink In the Afternoon.

Overall, I really love with what I got and I will diet for the rest of August. I ady have something in my mind for September shopping list :)
Btw, I got good news from the SA, Make Up Art collection will be launched in Indonesia in September, I will ask her to reserve for me the 2 blushers.
That's all from me. I want to enjoy me new stuffs :)
Bye

I'm back and a review

Finally Im getting better. I never sick like this long, a week ! Which make me feel so stress and tired. Well seems nobody cares, lets continue with a review.
As I promise, a review about ELF Mineral Blush.

Rose, Bliss, Joy

ELF Mineral Blush is not so popular I think. At least from the spree that I join, mostly order the $1 stuffs. While me, never order or interested with ELF bcoz looks cheap and no quality. Yeah, can't judge a book by its cover, but I do believe people always tempted to buy something bcoz the cute or elegant packaging.
ELF Mineral blush interest me bcoz it's the cheapest mineral blush I have seen and they have pretty colors. Beside that, it said that no parabens, no chemical dyes and no preservatives so it's quite guarantee about the safety.
I got Rose, Bliss and Joy. All of them are pretty :)
Texture wise, it's smooth and blend nicely. However, if compare with La Femme blusher, they are not so pigmented. Joy and Bliss I think only can use for u who has fair to light skin tone.
Me myself needs to swipe several times until the color appears.

Joy, Bliss and Rose

Rose has the darkest color, so u can see the color appear easily. Joy is sweet pink, Bliss is peach and Rose is dark pink. All of them have shimmers, but still acceptable.
Two days ago, I put Joy after MAC Powder Blush in Fleur Power, but I didn't see any difference as I thought it could give me a nice glow.
Overall, I like it, 3.5 out of 5.
Repurchase ? No. I prefer to get another mineral blusher.
I hope my review gonna help u.
Bye.

First haul =)

Hallo gurls ! Seems like everybody is curious about ELF Mineral blusher that I got. I manage to post about the review but not now. Hope u can wait a lil bit longer. I have few things that I want to post about xD
First of all, I'm really excited to tell u that finally after a long time, I bought some makeup in Indonesia ! It's quite difficult since we have limited brands and even for one brand, they don't bring all the collections here. Malaysia is much better.
So here's what I got (sorry for the blur picture) :



Revlon Plump Sexxxy Lipstick in Pure Pleasure : Rp 50.000 or RM 17.55
Revlon New Complexion Fluid Foundation in 02 : Rp 65.000 or RM 22.80
Bourjois Blusher in 54 Rose Frisson : Rp 104.000 or RM 36.50

Proud to say that we have Bourjois here and that time they have 20% discount at Watson. The actual price is Rp 130.000 or Rm45.61. If they don't have the discount, I won't buy it =p
And yeah, another blusher after I talked to myself not to buy any blusher again, lol.
For Revlon New Complexion fluid foundation, I think it's something new for Malaysian readers. Because they don't have this in Malaysia. Correct me if I'm wrong.
This foundation promises a good coverage but u feel like wear nothing. If u check from the site, it's different from the packaging and what I read from Makeupalley, it's probably the new formula.
I can't wait to try it. It's my first foundation from Revlon. I know I should get the Colorstay foundation because it's the best seller foundation from Revlon that ady approved by lots of beauty blogger. Well, I will get it later, bcoz now I have shopping list that I really eager to get.
I can't wait for Saturday to meet my bf and shopping with him ! xD
Btw, I want to show a pic about my hauls from 2 weeks in Malaysia =p

If I show them all together u can see how many stuffs that I bought xD I got a brush for eyeliner too that I bought in Sasa, next to the NYX lipsticks. and I only need 2 weeks to get 15 pcs blushers, crazy huh ?
Ok, that's all from me, hope u enjoy it :D How about u ? What u get this week ?
Share with me :D



Cheers

Last haul before I went back home =)

Yeah, my last package that I received exactly on the day I went back to Indonesia. I was worried for a whole week. I could not track from post Malaysia and when I went to the office center, they said they could not find it. I was hopeless.
To my surprise, when I went to my house in M'sia to take my luggage, I saw the package on my table !



That's what I got, quite a lot huh ? ;)
I got :
ELF Studio bronzer in Warm
ELF Studio bronzer in Golden
ELF Mineral blush in Rose
ELF Mineral blush in Joy
ELF Mineral blush in Bliss
NYX Lipstick in Twig
NYX Lipstick in Cocoa
NYX Lipstick in Aphrodite
NYX Lipstick in Champagne
La Femme blusher in Cyrstal Cafe
La Femme blusher in Framboeisia

It was my first time purchased ELF makeup, before this I only had the Studio powder blush that I decided to sell it. Maybe u will say that I'm stupid to sell that very nice brush, well I just have too many =p
So far I only tried the Mineral blush in Rose, no break out, long lasting and quite pigmented. It said that no parabens, no preservatives and no chemical dyes. I found that ELF is made in China, maybe that's the reason why the price is very cheap. However, I'm only interested to get the studio and mineral line. The $1, for me look like crap.
Btw, the ELF Studio bronzer is huge ! Bigger than Jane bronzer, which contained 12 gr. I have yet tried it, but it has shimmer, both of them. Too bad as I was looking for matte one.
While for La Femme, I love Framboiesia, fuchsia with shimmer. The brightest blusher I ever had I think. It looks scary, but it's so pretty once I tried it =)
And once again, I am disappointed with NYX Lipstick, Champagne and Aphrodite looked so ugly on me. Muddy lips or got poison, that's what I think when I saw my lips in the mirror. Scary.
Maybe I will use it for shading, if it works well.
Is there anyone can recommend me nude lipstick ?



Cheers
Meri L

Please don't vomit =p

LOL, I thought u will know what this post will be about.
Well, this post will show blushers (again) that I got from MAC. I had showed u half of them, which are from Colour Craft Collection, Fad Dabulous and Style Demon. I have yet tried Style Demon, so I can't say what I think about. While for Fad Dabulous I used it for once and I forgot how it looked on me, LOL.
When I went to MAC, I was planning to get MAC Powder Blush in Pinch Me but the SA told me it's oos. So I played with the powder blushers that displayed at the counter. I found my new love ! Melba and Plum Foolery. Melba is pink peachy color, I love it, so nice ! While Plum Foolery, even I don't have it, but it reminds me with NARS Sin.


Picture of my new blushers, so yeah I add another stuffs for my MAC and blusher collection.
I know, u ady sick with it, LOL.
Well, I think my next haul, which will be in this month, I won't buy any blusher.
I am thinking to get cream foundation and eyeshadow =p

My first La Femme blushers haul

La Femme blusher, I knew about this blusher from someone who wanted to get it so badly. I tried to google what the good thing about this blusher is. Unfortunately, I could not find lots of information. But mostly blogger said it's very pigmented. Since I'm a blusher maniac, I decided to order some.
I only need 2 weeks until it reached me.
But I was dissapointed because 2 of those 3 blushers were shattered.
Then I had idea to move it to a jar, so it would be loose powder blusher.


I got Pink Velvet, Coral Spice and Stormy Rose. I love all of them. The colors look so bright and I never have bring pink before. But once, I put it on my face, it's so pretty =)
It's quite long lasting, while for the texture, it's not as smooth as NARS. Overall, it's a good blusher and with that price, I certainly want to get more.
Is there anyone got La Femme blusher too ? Share with me what color u got and how do u find it =)



Cheers

I can't get enough with blusher ;)

I am really crazy about blusher. For someone who has fair to light skin tone, it is necessary to have blusher. At least, for me because I love how a girl look with blusher.
Everytime I go to any makeup counter , I will look for the blusher.
And in these hauls, which I did in different day, I got myself blushers from brands that I never tried before.
Shu Uemura and Make Up Store.



If u do read my previous post, my first makeup from Shu would be these blushers.
I got myself M Red 15 and P Red 14. Adorable yet challenging and sophisticated color. I never got red color for blusher before. However, I need to be careful since I have light skin tone, or else I will be end up look like a clown. These blushers are very smooth yet pigmented. I love them and even though it's more expensive than MAC, it's worth it.
While for Make Up Store, I have Sugar Muffin, such a lovely color. I love Make Up Store blushers, they are pretty. It's more expensive than MAC, RM 79. But the contain is lesser than MAC Powder blush. However, This blusher is really nice and it does show the color. So for RM 79 it's paid off.
Lucky that we have it in Indonesia, so I can get another blusher from them. It's been a long time I didn't shop in Indonesia, now it's the time ;) LOL
And just for extra information, I asked the SA of Make Up Store and she told me they have the membership that I can use world wide, Rm 50 for one year.

MAC Color Craft haul

Thanks to Amy for helping me to get MAC Colour Craft collection =) She's really helpful, as MAC Indonesia maybe dont have this later. They even dont have Style Warrior, so damn bad right ?
If I didn't get it now, Im afraid it will out of stock soon. People crazy about MAC.
Im still in Indonesia, but Amy had been so nice to buy for me plus discount bcoz she is the member of MAC Pro.
Here's the picture I got from her :)



I got Fad Dabulous and Style Demon. I think they are the prettiest among all the blushers frm Colour Craft. Daft Pink and Hand Finish are too sheer I think with tons of shimmer, just like Moon River. They are more suitable for highlighting.
I havent got the MSF Smooth Merge, Im not sure if I want to get it. I prefer to get other MAC blusher hehe..
I cant wait to get these MAC blushers on my hand !
Btw should I try other blushers from Colour Craft ?
What is ur favourite blusher from MAC ?
Give me suggestion ya. Thanks =)

Btw, the one that is from Niche, is made by Japan. At least, that's all I know from the packaging. The color is so pigmented yet pretty. When I want to use this, I need a light hand or else, I will end up look like a clown. It's very cheap; Rp 60,000 or RM 20. I'm planning to get other color =)
So, how about urs ? How many blushers u have ? Do share with me. I would like to know and pls recommend me a very great blush the brand together with the color.
