Shiseido foundation brush vs TheFaceShop foundation brush

In this post, I will be featuring two very similar looking foundation brush. Here we have the Perfect Foundation Brush from Shiseido versus the Lesson 01. Circle Face Brush from TheFaceShop. Shiseido Perfect Foundation Brush vs TheFaceShop Lesson 01. Circle Face Brush Both brushes come in a simple plastic box packaging. Both brushes have short handle for precise control during application and portability for travel. Comparing them side by side, you can see that the Shiseido Perfect Foundation Brush is slightly shorter than TheFaceShop Circle Face Brush. Left: Shiseido Perfect Foundation Brush, Right: TheFaceShop Circle Face Brush Looking at the brush from top down, Shiseido Perfect Foundation Brush seems to be a tad denser than TheFaceShop Circle Face Brush.

TheFaceShop Circle Face Brush is slightly wider than Shiseido Perfect Foundatio...

New Etude House Outlet at Clementi Mall

Etude House at Clementi Mall Calling out to all Etude House fans! Etude House has just opened a new outlet at the Clementi mall. Currently to celebrate the shop's opening, there is a storewide 30% discount. Yes, you read me correctly. It's STOREWIDE! With such fabulous discount, of course I had to get something :) So here's my mini loot: Mini haul First up we have the cotton wool (Org price. S$6.90) which I bought just to top the total bill up to $40 in order to get two free face mask. Cotton Wool Next we have a cherry lip gel patch (Org Price. S$4.90). It's a lip-shaped mask for the lips. So cute isn't it? I just had to try it out. Cherry Lip Gel Patch Lip-shaped Up next is a wash off yogurt mask pack called I Need You, Yogurt (Org Price. S$6.90). It has 4 flavours in a set, Strawberry, Kiwi, Apple and Peach, meant for 4 times usage. From past experience of the similar mask pack in Honey, each pack contains enough product for two uses....

Sleek blusher from Luxola

Luxola is fast becoming one of my favourite online shopping site. It has nice introductory offer of S$10 voucher when you first join the site, free next day shipping, offers from time to time, and interesting products from various brands. Most importantly, it allows you to pay cash on delivery! How good is that? So here's my second haul from Luxola, a Sleek blush! Sleek Blush in Rose Gold and a free BB Cream Sample The Packaging: The Sleek blush comes sealed, and has the similar smooth matte look as their eyeshadow palettes. Like all their palettes, it's a B***H trying to open the blush, so there is no worries of blush opening in your bag. At 8grams, it's the size of my palm. The ingredients: The review: I would describe the colour to be a deep champange rose colour, with heavy gold shimmer embedded. It leans more on the peachy coral tone rather than pink. Heavily pigmented, a light hand is recommended when trying to build up colour on the cheeks. Rose G...

Etude House at Wisma Atria gets a facelift

Etude House at Wisma Atria has gotten a facelift! The shop is now bigger, brighter and most importantly, I see new stuff being brought in! Bubble Hair Dye (Images from Etude House) Finally they have decided to bring in their famous bubble hair dye. It's simple to use, just mix the solutions together, pump the dye foam and massage into your hair, and you will get a very even dye within an hour. It's so hot in Philippines, the bubble hair dye was sold out so often! Finally we can have it in Singapore, and at a reasonable price of $14.90 too. (Just a note: It's not meant to cover grey/white hairs) Gradient Nail polish (Images from Etude House) Beside the bubble hair dye, I also spotted their gradation nail polish. The nail polish comes in a set of 3 complementing colors to create a gradient effect. These are sold at about $12.90 per set. For gals who love everything sweet and lacy, they also have very pretty nail stickers as well. Come on down to W...

L'Oreal Infallibles Haul

My Collection of L'oreal Infallibles Ok, call me crazy, did I actually really needed all these eyeshadow colors?? First I got the 004 Forever Pink, the texture is so smooth and creamy, and the colour payoff is "What you see is what you get" without any primer! I wore it out and it really lasted on my oily eyelids for the whole day with minimal creasing. So when I saw them again at the Bugis BHG sale on 23rd June going on a 30% discount, how could I resist not getting more of these babies right? So I added 015 Flashback Silver and 014 Eternal Black to my small collection. Then one day, I walked past the SASA at Marina Square, and I saw them at 50% discount! OMG, this is too good a deal to be missed, so I went to add on four more Infallibles into my collection - 006 All Night Blue, 005 Purple Obsession, 009 Permanent Kaki and 012 Endless Chocolat. Here's the swatch: From Top to Bottom: 004 Forever Pink, 009 Permanent Kaki, 015 Flashback Silver, 005 Purple ...

Tony Moly Haul

Tony Moly Masks & Lip Products I have been hauling too often recently, but the reason behind this haul is to try out the products so that I know what is worth buying when my sister's friend goes to Korea (Korea sells Tony Moly, Etude House, SkinFood, THEFACESHOP stuff at almost half the price as they are sold in Singapore). Things in the picture are: Tony Moly Honey-Bee Skin Solution Dual Mask (S$8.90 vs 3,500 Won) Tony Moly Intense Care Snail Eye Mask (S$5.90 vs 2,500 Won) Tony Moly Intense Care Syn-Ake Eye Mask (S$5.90 vs 2,500 Won) Tony Moly Lovely Slim Lip Stick in BE01 (S$10.90 korean price unavailable) Tony Moly Kiss Kiss Lip Scrub (S$16.90 vs 11,800 Won) Seriously, I think Singapore's Korea makeup stores should consider lowering their product prices. From the price comparison above, you can see it's ridiculously doubled. With all the endorsers targeting young teenagers fan base, I do feel that products should be priced so that young buyers with less...
