Elizabeth Red Door Coffret

Thanks to OG sale, I was able to bag this nice 6 piece Elizabeth Red Door Coffret at just SGD$35.
Items included are: 1x red satin makeup pouch which you can absolutely carry around as a classy clutch, 1x face highlighter, 1x kabuki brush, 2x lipsticks, 1x fragrance.

Face highlighter

The face highlighter comes in a classy gold compact. It has a nice light touch of peach color and plenty of shimmers. Do use with a light hand to prevent becoming a disco ball.

Kabuki Brush

This Kabuki brush is what made me bought the whole set. The brush is very soft and dense, especially good for brushing powders and buffing it into your face.

Elizabeth Arden Lipstick

This lipstick is reddish brown and is great for nude makeup looks. Nothing too glaring here. I love the heavy weight gold metallic casing.

Elizabeth Arden Lipstick

Another lipstick from Elizabeth Arden. It comes in a red heavy metallic casing, and looks absolutely red in the tube. I was still thinking if I should give it away as I dislike strong lip colors (strong lip colors just emphasize on how small and thin my lips are), but decided to swatch it. Luckily I did as the color comes out as a totally wearable transparent red, instead of the usually thick opaque red which screams attention to my lips. Just a note, the lipsticks come with a strong Jasmine scent (something which I am not too fond of) and it does linger around for quite some time.


Elizabeth Arden Red Door Fragrance

I have saved the worst for the last. The Elizabeth Arden Red Door fragrance comes in a very nice classy glass bottle in their signature red, but the fragrance turns out to smell strongly of Jasmine, something which I dislike (okay to tell the truth, I hate it). So I have left it standing as a pretty decoration on my shelf instead.

New Aqualabel Collagen GL Cream

Aqualabel has recently launched a new product - Collagen GL Cream, at our local Watsons stores. What it does: Using Aqualabel’s exclusive Aqua Synergy technology, Collagen GL Cream is said to penetrate deeper into the skin layers and deliver moisture as well as effective ingredients into the skin while softening. Touted as a 5 in 1 gel cream, the Collagen GL Cream is supposed to be able to replace your lotion-emulsion-cream-essence-mask in one step ! Which means in one bottle, you get all the following functions: • Lotion-Softens the skin and prepares it for subsequent skincare • Emulsion-Balance the skin’s natural oil • Essence-Concentrated treatment of double hyaluronic acid and collagen to target dehydration and aging problems • Cream-Hydrating ingredients to retain moisture for long hours • Mask-Works as a sleeping mask to lock in the goodness of Collagen GL and Hyaluronic Acid when skin feels extremely dry. Sounds too good to be true isn't it? Imagine the...

The Little Black Beauty Box - Shiseido

Previously I bought a few boxes of Vanity Trove, but as I find the samples in Vanity Trove getting more and more uninteresting, I decided to look for other beauty boxes instead. After doing some research, I found the recently launched "The Little Black Beauty Box" (LBBB). A joint venture by mediacorp styleXstyle and Robinsons, each month, the LBBB delivers to your doorstep a box containing a variety of beauty products in a dedicated theme, all for just S$19.90 (free shipping in Singapore). Online reviews on the past boxes showed the boxes with reasonable sized samples from quite reputable brands, all for a lower price than Vanity Trove. So I decided to try out the August box which happens to be themed "Shiseido" a brand which I am a fan of. LBBB has a nice customer service which calls you up one week before delivery to confirm delivery timing, and finally after a long long wait (I order in early July), it finally arrived! Ribbon wrapped, the LBBB looks lik...
