Misslyn Makeup (High Shine Trio Eyeshadow, Compact Blusher,IntenseColor Liner, and Shiny Lip Color)

Hello everyone!!

I'm creating a simple look using products from Misslyn.

I have Intense Color Liner No.61, High Shine Trio Eyeshadow in 42, Compact Blusher No. 26, and Shiny Lip Color No. 82 in Toffee Color.

-*-



I also have the nail color, but I'm not using it at this post, it will be shared on separate post.

Below is the look of me using all of the 4 products of makeup for the face.

-*-


Since I'm using it for daily activity, I'm trying to be soft and demure. The eyeshadow can only be seen on the lines and when I closed my eyes. The eyeliner is wonderful and easy to be used. I love the Shiny Lip Color for being moist and so shiny as well.

For the blusher, I'm not a big fan of the color, I can use it as much as seen on the image, just a hint of it since when too much I'll look odd in this 'light brick' shade.

-*-


Below is the swatch of the products.

No.1 is eyeliner
No.2 is lip color
No.3 is the blush on
and
No.4 is the trio eyeshadow.

-*-


The product does have the power to resist water, as seen on the image below.

I've washed with water, get a bit of soap and rub it as well in a normal washing dishes movement, as I did the dishes while testing them. Some of them are still well intact. Nevertheless, a good makeup remover will clean them all off in a flash.

-*-



Thank you Misslyn Indonesia.

Many varieties of products also available at the counters, from false lashes to colorful eye liners.

Price: Moderately budget friendly.

Lush Bath Bomb Luxury Lush Pud


Hello lovelies,

this holiday is almost over, boo hoo, I'm hoping for another holiday soon ^__^

During the holiday, I like to pamper myself and have a wonderful time, taking long bath, wearing mask almost everyday, and having tea time.

The long bath will include hard to resist products such as Lush Bath Bomb.

-*-




(image from www.lush.co.uk)

One of them is Lush Pud.

It looks super duper cute. Hubby bought it during his business trip. He chooses the lavender since it was my favorite, lavender seems to be able to calm my nerves within every sniff.

-*-

Here it is, a ball that promise a 45 minutes of undeniable relaxing time. Why 45 minutes, I can't seem to pass that timing in the tub ^__-- I'm already wrinkling haha!

-*-



As seen in the images, the Lush Pud makes the water turn into purplish pink, the fizzing bomb is delightful to watch and even the scent itself has calm me down. Psst!! Over the past weeks of keeping the bomb in my bedroom has made the room smells good.

The water become so fragrant and everyone in it as well. The smell last all night long (as we are using it at the afternoon bath time). We? My daughter and me both enjoy bath time together with Lush Pud. The bath product does induce sleeping time as it is relaxing, smells lavender and calming all the aching muscles with the warm water.

The only matter in this case is the price, one bath bomb feels so expensive since it can only be used once.


Beauty Buffet Whitening Body Lotion


Hi all,

who loves traveling? I do, I raise both of my hands and feet if needed. I love traveling so much, but lately due to my health and other conditions, I'm not able to travel as much as I want to. Why do I love traveling? Different location, different culture, different people, means.... different beauty products!!!!

I love trying new stuff. So when my sis (NOT ME, my sister), went to Bangkok, I patiently waiting for her to get me something. She bought me lotions from Beauty Buffet, I asked for Pasjel but I guess for now Beauty Buffet will do heehee.

-*-




She took the image of the store. She told me and based on the website, it seems like everything looks so yummy! I literally want them all.

-*-


The Whitening Body Lotion with Co-Enzyme Q10  is one of the best sellers on the store. The whitening effect is due to the ingredients inside the product like milk protein, vitamin E and of course Co-Enzyme Q10 that claims to be the hero to fight skin's aging process. So it's not about changing the skin's natural color, but protecting the skin from environmental damage, including the sun, which causing the skin to loose it's vitality, strength and become darker.

-*-




The lotion is white and almost creamy. It was like a yoghurt. The smell? I believe this is one of the thing that made the product into best seller, it was like a milk candy or milk shake, so milkylicious #DontCareIfIt'sNotAWord. I love it, too bad it only last for 30 minutes or so. But during the application, it was delightful, like putting creamy milk on the skin.

No worries, no stickiness , nor greasy feeling afterwards. Just soft, smooth and smells delicious.

Now, as probably known and seen, yes, this product still contain some ingredients that is not 100% safe ... errr or even already banned from some country. So of you want to try it, I suggest use it wisely and not in long terms.

Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs in Medium Glow


Hello lovelies,

this item perhaps not a regular cosmetics we use daily, it's the airbrush for our legs. What? Legs? Yes! Apparently the product is famous among celebrities, hence sometime even thou they aren't wearing any stockings their legs seems so smooth and glowingly beautiful, yes, these Airbrush Legs babies does it.

-*-


Details from www.sallyhansen.com:

Tanning and pantyhose are so yesterday. Now you can give your legs a makeover in just seconds. No sun. No salon. No streaks. Just flawless-looking, irresistible, sexy legs. This lightweight leg makeup, enriched with Palmaria Extract, enhances the coverage of freckles, veins and imperfections. It’s water and transfer resistant. Bare legs are nice. Airbrush Legs are irresistible. Find Airbrush Legs in the Sally Hansen section at your local retailer.
It comes in 4 shade from Light, Medium, Tan to Deep Glow. Mine is in Medium Glow.

-*-

I think mine should be in Light Glow since the Medium really made me looks like I spend hours on the beach during sun's peak hours @.@

-*-




It looks so tan. And I thought the sprayer would be fine and well, I do expecting airbrush after all. But it looks a bit like spray paint. So with the help of my hands, I blend the 'tan' well. The glow effect is lovely, please do look at the image below:

-*-


Somehow the tan gives my legs healthier look, I guess being too pale is not always nice. I wonder what Nicole Kidman will look like if she is a bit tanner :D

I like the fact that the glow and tan stays until the next shower, and once set, the color won't fade away nor staining the clothes. But don't rub anything on it if they are not dry yet, they'll dry completely around 2-3 minutes in an aircon room.

-*-


The only 'side effect' is my hand, which I can easily wash off immediately with soap.

The product may be used on other part of the body as well like hands, but I don't think it is recommended  for those with open wound or damaged skin.

Thank you Sally Hansen Indonesia.

Bella Nurture Mask

Hello lovelies,

how are you today? I hope all of you looking fabulous today!

But, for some of us who don't, let's use a facial mask, as a good quality mask should contain concentrate of beneficial ingredients. We can choose a mask to help brighten the look, make acne vanishes, lighten complexion, ease the lines, and many more.

-*-


Here is one Nurture Mask I received from the recent event with Bella Skin Care. A pink gel mask that said to contain Yuzu and Sakura, the key function is to moisturizes the skin instantly, smoother complexion and reduce pigmentation.

-*-

The gel has a light and cooling feeling on the skin when used, I always put it on a clean dry skin. Please do click on the image(s) to read more details written in the fine prints.

-*-


As quick as 20 minutes usually the gel will be absorbed by the skin. Leaving a trails of dried gel on the skin. Rinse it off with water until there's no more leftover. I find the gel to be pleasing, but for those who have dehydrated or very sensitive skin like my husband may feel a bit tingling and warm sensation to a bit sting.

-*-



One more thing that shocked me is the word, Avoid Contact With Eyes, Can Cause Blindness..... make sure the gels are far far away from the eyes during application and rinsing off then.

-*-



The product is available in these countries and can be purchase in Bella's branches or their online shop.

-*-



Here's an image of the gel on the skin. Lovely and pleasing, as long as it was kept far away from the eyes ^__--

So far, I've been using the mask for 2 months, 1-2 a week. The mask does provide hydration and I look a bit fairer after usage, but for the dark spots, they do seems to get smaller and smaller but not yet completely gone.

Thank you Bella Skin Care Indonesia.

What do you think of the product details? Impressive isn't it?! One more characteristic of the item is compared to the first one, is how easy it is the ANR II to penetrate into the skin. No greasy nor leftover on the skin, just moist, supple, and relaxed looking skin.

The serum is used after a toner and before moisturizer. The ANR may be called a night repair but can be used on day or night or both. The skin can feel the instant hydrating effect while to see the less lines and wrinkle, it may took around 2 weeks for very fine lines to months for deeper lines. The key is perseverance and consistency while enjoying the process.

This is the after usage, within 2 second the serum looks vanished into the skin ^__^
