Too Faced Palette - Naked Eye

Hi there ladies!

Who doesn't love neutral eyeshadow palette? Most of my eyeshadow is neutral because I not brave enough to wear color on my eye. I think I'm just playing safe hehe. I got this Too Faced Naked Eye Palette earlier this year from my Mom, thank you Mom :)


To be honest I'm not a huge fan of the cover of the palette, I don't know why. The packaging quite nice for traveling, it's made from thick cardboard and have a magnatic closures.


Doesn't came with mirror, not a big deal for me. I love the color from this palette, I can make really effortless eye look and smokey look! I love this palette because it has a matte black eyeshadow, I can't get enough with matte black eyeshadow.


It came with double ended little baby brush but I think is useless. I never use it, you can see it it still have the plastic cover on it. In my opinion the drawer just make this palette little bit bulky.

Close Up Look
If I wear eyeshadow for work it might be great choice because it's a natural palette! But I just wearing eyeshadow for going out and special occasion.

I'm really sorry I don't have swatches for each eyeshadow because my battery die and i don't know where is the charger  :(

Some of the colour doesn't really show up on my eyelid which is Birthday Suit, Pink Cheeks, Pillow Talk and Like a Virgin. I love Satin Sheet for highlighting my inner corner verry pretty. The quality is great, very blendable and easy to work with.


It came with three cards, so if you are a newbie for eyeshadow it would be great for you :)

My First Nars Product :)

Hi there ladies!
This is my first Nars product. Nars blushes is so populer around beauty blogger and youtuber and yes I love blush :D.
I decided to get Nars blush in Mata Hari, because is matte blush. I want a new blush that i can wear to work, so here is my opion about Nars Mata Hari


I love Nars packaging very sleek and compact, but it gets dirty easily. Came with big mirror :)


The pigmentation is great! I just need one layer and it's already shows in my cheecks, I don't need a lot. A little bit goes a looooong way!


 It's a matte (little deep) pink, great for everyday look :)
Overall I love my first Nars blush, i want to get more Nars product. Can you please give me advice, what next Nars product should I get?


Thank you for reading, have a great Sunday :)

My Opinion : E.L.F Conditioning Lip Balm SPF 15

Hi there ladies!

I don't really wear lipstick for daily bases, don't ask me why. I prefer wearing lip balm or tinted lip balm, my lips are very chapped during the day. I want something that makes my lips smooth, giving nice natural color, little bit of color and taste good at the same time.
E.L.F Conditioning Lip Balm SPF 15 is the best answer for my needs :)

Left : Nice & Natural   Right : Mellow Melon

Very bulky packaging, it would take a lot of room in your makeup pouch. I would recommend to bring your lip brush if you hate to dip in your finger on it. 
It smells good likes coconut and taste good also, but please don't eat it!! It's not a treat x)

Left : Nice & Natural    Right : Mellow Melon
Above : Mellow Melon Lower : Nice & Natural

I would describe Mellow Melon as a coral with a lilttle bit of pink color, it give me such a pretty lip color. I don't like the other color which is Nice & Natural, the color is too cool for me and it's washed me out. Everytime I wear Nice & Natural by it self it make me looks like zoombie which is ot attractive at all, but if I layer it on top of bright red lipstick it's great. For $3 I think it's a great product!

My Opinion : Lorac Front of The Line Pro Eyeliner in Black

Hi there ladies!

Wearing eyeliner is a must for me, I love liquid eyeliner other than another type of eyeliner for my top lash line. But sometimes I have trouble to draw a precise line. If you remember in couple of my last post, I got this eyeliner in the Lorac set, I was very excited to try this eyelilner because I never try this pen kind of eyeliner.

I like the packaging, it literally looks like a pen.

The pointy tip of it give me more control to draw precise thin line. If I want to make a thicker line, I use the side of the eyeliner. It's very easy for me to get winged look using this eyeliner.

The color pay off is quite qood, I have to apply 2 layers to get the color I want. The finish is not true matte, if you like matte eyeliner finish I would recommend Revlon Colorstay one (the Revlon one is true black color!).
It have great staying power, it last on my eyes for more than 8 hours without smudging or flaking all over my face. If you have very oily lids, I suggest to prime your eyes before apply this eyeliner.

Overall I'm happy with Lorac Front the Line Pro. I'm not sure if I will repurchase it, because it's quite pricey for liquid eyeliner.
