I received two samples of ampm products when I ordered the Naruko Narcissus skincare set. Just a quick headup, ampm is under the umbrella of Naruko Brand. It is specifically formulated for office ladies (or OL) who work in air-conditioned office and work in a stressful environment. So hydration and destress are the focus. It suits all skin types. </div>
<br />
<strong>Ampm super hydra skin wakeup pack (15g)</strong><br />
<br />
The hydra skin wakeup pack is a moisturizing cold mask that can be used every day. It has the following effects:<br />
<br />
● It strengthens hydration and provides the skin with intensive replenishment and maintenance of moisture;<br />
● It relieves dry skin, desquamation, etc.;<br />
● It repairs keratin and restores skin’s health;<br />
●It prevents aging and diminishes the appearance of lines due to dryness;<br />
●It aids in the rejuvenation of the skin;<br />
●It makes the skin healthier and maintains moisture balance;<br />
●It leaves the skin watery and supple while strengthening its health;<br />
●It soothes the skin, and<br />
●It strengthens the skin defense.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This hydra wakeup pack is versatile as it can also be used a strongly hydrating sleeping mask at night.</div>

</tbody></table>
I love the cooling sensation when apply. It also did not leave any stickiness on my skin. I think the hydration result is better than the Laneige Water Sleeping Mask. The Laneige sleeping packsomehow gave me the stickiness and created more oil sebum for my skin. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I also Iike the idea of re-touch up. It can be used to touch up any dry patches after few hours in air conditioned space and even on the plane. It is also very handy which fits in my makeup pouch. I may get the full size when I use up my current skincare stash. </div>
<br />
<strong>Ampm skin ecological complex (10ml)</strong><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It aims in self-repairing, anti-aging and reducing dullness. After few uses, I noticed that the luminosity of my skin had improved slightly, nothing more. Overall hydration is good. Will I get the full size? Maybe not as it is just a very normal moisturizer to me. (Note: I tried to find the product description from Naruko's offical Website Taiwan but not available, perhaps it has already discontinued?)</div>

I'm off today so I have some free time to blog about La Mer product for you:) <br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
La Mer - The Oil Absorbing Tonic is a soothing tonic that revitalizes the skin and reduces excess sebum. It suits oily to combination skin like mine. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A product description of La Mer Oil Absorbing Toner: <br />
<br />
<em>"The Oil Absorbing Tonic is the vital transition between cleansing and treatment. Infused with colloidal mineral water, the topical benefits of this soothing tonic are readily apparent. La Mer's exclusive Deconstructed Waters™ within the tonic revitalize and enliven the skin with no signs of dehydration. Anti-irritants delivered through these negatively charged waters soothe and tone the skin, preparing it to readily receive the maximum benefits of skincare to follow. The Oil Absorbing Tonic, formulated for oily or problem skin, is infused with algae extracts to significantly reduce excess sebum that can lead to adult breakouts.</em></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<em><em>Shake gently to activate tonic. After cleansing, moisten a cotton pad and gently apply all over face and neck, dabbing in a gentle press and release motion. Repeat until cotton pad comes away clean.</em>"<!-- Begin StyleFeatures --></em></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I do not have acne prone skin but only excess oil sebum on my T zone and cheek area. After few uses, it minimises the excess sebum on my T-zone but not completely. Good thing about this toner is it does not over dry my skin. No harsh feeling too. After few months of using, my pores appear to be more tighten. One thing about this toner is the "powerful" scent at first use. It smells like antiseptic or alcohol which not many ladies would like it. However, do not worry too much because I find that the scent will slowly tone down after frequent uses.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My first concern of La Mer products is the price. I am not sure if the price justifies the special ingredients which La Mer claims.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
La Mer is a luxurious skin care and hence it is costly. It is up to individual to judge whether this toner worths every penny given that other products with reasonable pricing and similar effects that can still achieve the same results for oily or acne skins. If you are not a cost conscious and truly believe in La Mer, then go for it! For me, I may repurchase this tonic again and continue exploring other La Mer products:)</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thanks for reading and have a good day ahead:)</div>

Here I am, sharing products that I've used up recently. I'll try to blog "Products I've Used Up" more frequently if my schedule permits, please bear with me :) <br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">I've just used up Caudalie cleansing water (200ml) recently. Caudalie products (French brand) are mainly made of vine extracts and are free from parabens, phenoxyethanol, phthalates, minerals oils,sodium laureth sulfate, animal ingredients and more.. It is very gentle on skin, leaving a cooling grape fruit scent on my skin. At least 3-4 cotton pads are required if use to remove makeup completely. I find that Caudalie cleansing water also makes my skin look brighter. </div><br />

It suits all skin types, especially the most sensitive skin. You can get Caudalie at Sephora Singapore stores.</div><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Honestly speaking, this is the first time I heard about double serum, i.e. two serum in one bottle, isn't it sound amazing?! Clarins has recently launched its new Double Serum in red bottle. It contains a combination of water-based and oil-based formulas, the unique [Hydric + Lipidic system] replicates the model of the dual nature of skin cells. It also ensures optimal absorption and reinforced efficacy.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Double Serum focuses on the common aging problems that every woman faces nowadays. According to Clarins (<a href="http://doubleserum.clarins.com/sg/index.php">http://doubleserum.clarins.com/sg/index.php</a> ), this Double Serum helps to revitalize the skin's five anti-aging functions as follows:</div>
<br />
• HYDRATION for softness and comfort<br />
• NUTRITION for suppleness and tone<br />
• OXYGENATION for skin radiance & luminosity<br />
• REGENERATION for firmness and elasticity<br />
• PROTECTION for the prevention of fine lines and wrinkles <br />
<br />
These are exactly what I need (*I screamed in my heart*)..<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Because of the special ingredients as mentioned above and the concept of "double serum", Clarins claims to be more effective than their regular serum, which I totally agreed! </div>
<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Thanks to Metro (a local department store in Singapore), I picked up my own bottle at $118 (with 20% off in credit voucher). It was a good deal to me. I also spent on additional Clarins item (Body Shaping Cream) in order to make the total exceeds $180 for a 5-piece gift. </div>

I tested the texture on my right hand at the counter and noted that the double serum when mixed together, it took a while for it to fully absorb into my skin, leaving oiliness feel. The SA explained that I must warm up the serum on my palms then gently pat on my face ("using the Hada Labo patting motion") . So she tested it on my left hand. Viola!! The serum had sinked into my skin well..</div>

When apply, it absorbs into my skin pretty well.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My skin felt more supple and hydrated.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I prefer this serum than the Narcissus serum (read my review <a href="http://jiejie2005.blogspot.sg/2012/02/naruko-review-narcissus-total-defense.html"><strong><span style="color: blue;">Naruko Narcissus Review Part II</span></strong></a> ).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is fragranceless so no funny smell at all.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As for the firming effect, I have not seen the result yet.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have only used up one bottle so it is way too early to conclude if the firming effect is working.<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
The small bottle on left was a free sample that came with Derma Pro Series.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is a fluid-gel type serum which helps to brighten and improve firmness of the skin.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Well, the consistency is identically the same as the Multi-peptide Firming Serum.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I did not see any brightening effect on my skin so far.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I would not recommend getting the brightening serum.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The Multi-peptide Firming Serum works way better than the brightening serum.</div>

This souffle provides immdiate effect to dry, aging skin.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It rapidly restores firmness, diminishes the visibe signs of aging and rejuvenates youthfulness to the skin.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Apply to skin twice daily after cleansing and toning, massage into skin with a slow upward motion until absorbed. </div>

The texture is 'bouncy' like tofu and also rich in consistency.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>However, I have to take ‘extra’ effort to scoop the product out and also extra time to make it fully absorb into my skin.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It dried pretty well leaving a slight stickiness feel to it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So far no irritation noted.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Due its richness in consistency and hot and humid weather here, I can only use it sparingly.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I would not recommend this product to oily and combination skin type. </div>

I realized that I have too many neutral eyeshadow in my makeup stash. The reason being they are easy to work with and work appropriate. Special thanks to Cutie Fishball for the CP:)<br />
<br />
Based on Temptalia’s review<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>(<a href="http://www.temptalia.com/nars-calanque-eyeshadow-trio-review-photos-swatches"><strong><span style="color: blue;">Temptalia's NARS Calanque review</span></strong></a> ), NARS Calanque has a mix of gold infused platinum with silver flecks, light matte caramel and rich antique bronze infused with gold.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
My favourite is the soft bronze shade as the colour is obviously pigmented.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>However, it can get messy because of the fall out when apply.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
My last thought is only if the soft bronze and matte caramel be the bigger shades instead of the silver glitters.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>What a waste…</div>

<br />
Lancome Tresor Midnight Rose - loving the mix of rose and vanilla scent. <br />
<br />
NYX Eyeshadow (from left to right - Frosted flake, Slate, Iced Mocha) I wore iced mocha on my eye lid and frosted flake for the brow bone. <br />
<br />
KATE blush - OR-1 - This orangy blush comes with a decent brush (click <a href="http://jiejie2005.blogspot.sg/2011/09/blushers-and-highlighter.html"><strong><span style="color: blue;">Kate cheek blush review</span></strong></a><strong><span style="color: blue;"> </span></strong>for my review). This blush is versatile as the lighter shade can be used as highlights for cheek bone and face. <br />

Same as Yumeko, I take photos using my iphone so I can only show you the cover. I got this phone cover at a night market in Hong Kong last December, for around S$11. I'm currently looking for a nice cover with reasonable price to replace this worn-out cover >.< </div>

Another birthday gift from my colleagues - Mulberry Leather Wallet. In my opinion, it is kind of bigger than the usual wallet size but a smaller version of Mulberry's classic design bag :). I like the details inside and the compartment. <br />

I was comptemplating what items should I show :/ Ok, I decided to share this:) Receipts that I kept for last Friday purchase. <br />
<br />
A random question, do you keep receipts in your wallet? For me, I usually put the receipts in my wallet after making payment each time. Just in case I need it for exhange purpose. <br />

Product description:</div>
<br />
This facial wash uses amino acids as its cleansing agents, creating a gentle and non-irritating formula. Using the patented Phytoferulin formula, it helps prevent the moisture loss while washing way the dirt and impurities. Skins appears smoother and more radiant and less dull.<br />
<br />
Jie Jie view:<br />
<br />
I prefer this cleanser, way better than the mousse cleanser. This cleanser does not dry out my skin excessively and can see the radiant on my face. It has a nice narcissus scent to it. Overall a good cleanser.<br />

Product description:<br />
<br />
This state-of-art cream contains multi-functional peptides, narcissus bulb extract, Phytoferulin and SyriCalmCLR to boost skin's rejuvenation, visibly minimize fine lines, protect against environmental damage and restore youthful appearance. It reveals healthy, radiant and glowing complexion.<br />
<br />
Jie Jie view:<br />
<br />
I'm slightly skeptical about the word "state-of-art" which may provide a wrong impression. It is in creamy texture as you can see above. I use it at night time and this moisturizer gives you the right hydration. Remember to avoid T-zone areas when apply. However, not sure if it really works on minimizing fine lines as I don't see the results yet. <br />
<br />
I hope you will find my review of useful to you, especially if you are new to Naruko products.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">Let's talk about the packaging first, by browsing the name of each lippy, for example, candy apple, raspberry pie, pink truffle and the list goes on...just simply irresistible!! Each plastic lipstick cap matches the lip shade very closely. <br />
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Move on to the lip balm, I've read some reviews on these Revlon Lippies and also on Youtube.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Honestly speaking, I'd say 'blame' Revlon for the overwhelming product description (see above)!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I totally agree with the fact that the word "lip balm" is indeed misleading, as I know that Revlon lippies are normally not that hydrating enough. The pigmentation and hydration are ok, but thumbs up for the great colours and shiny effect. H</span><span style="font-family: Calibri;">owever, given that it is a drugstore product, we should not expect too much from this product, as you get what</span><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> you pay for. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Maybe someone would agree with me, packaging (and the names!) do add the selling point here… You may prefer another lippies which are more subtle than the Revlon lip butter without doubts, but overall I have no complains (except for the base of the lipstick tube which sometimes I can't hold it steadily, see above) as indeed these lippies are undoubtedly nice to have. </span></div><span style="font-family: Calibri;">As for colours, I bet no one can dispute on the fact that the colours are vibrant and lovely.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> See below.</span></span><br />

<br />
This is a clear 'gelish-watery' type of toner. Apply it with a cotton pad and the toner dries up well on my skin. It has this little 'cooling' sensation, leaving a nice scent of narcissus. My skin feels so smooth and hydrated, great for hot and humid weather here in Singapore. However, what's puzzling me is the texture of the day toner and the night toner look the same to me (it's unnecessary repetition), so far I don't see a significant difference in results. This toner/dew overall is a gentle toner with good hydration level. It suits all skin types.<br />
<br />
<br />
Product description:<br />
<br />
<em>Moisturizing Day Protector (120ml)</em><br />
<br />
This new advanced day protector formulated with the patented Phytoferulin complex and Narcissus bulb extract to help promote a moisture barrier and further protect the skin. Manufactured by a unique technology allows maximum absorption and seals the skin away from the damage of the environment.<br />
<br />
<em>Moisturizing Night Repair (120ml)</em><br />
<br />
This night repair is designed for the skin's self repair during the night. A unique technology produces its fine texture to ensure deeper absorption, providing skin the opportunity for its own repairing from inside out. The high concentration of narcissus bulb extract and patented Phytoferulin formula provides endurance for the skin's restoration all night long.<br />

<br />
The texture is different from the toner/dew as mentioned above which is in milky form. I was wondering whether this is a toner or light lotion, until Fuzkittie mentioned that it is a toner :)! Again, it works the same as toner, just that it is more moisturizing than the toner/dew, leaves skin more moist and supple. I would say that it is ideal for night time or during winter time.<br />
<br />
On the other hand, just a little bit disappointed with the moisturizing night repair, which it claims that it is designed for <strong>skin's self repair</strong> during the night. Anyway, I should not expect more on the quality because of the pricing. "You get what you pay for." <br />
<br />
<u>Final thoughts</u><br />
If you have a normal skin and are wondering which toner should you get, I would suggest moisturing dew for the day and moisturing night repair for the night.<br />
<br />
<u><strong>Serum</strong></u><br />

<em>Fundamental Serum (30ml)</em><br />

This serum contains a special formula that reaches deep down into the skin, fighting aging while preventing moisture loss and revitalising the skin.<br />

</div><div>This serum is in gel form (almost watery texture). It absorbs into my skin well when applied during day and night. Two to three drops are sufficient to cover the whole face and neck areas. I find it weird about the scent. It has the nice narcissus scent when used at initial stage, but scent has swiftly turned into 'rubbery' smell after subsequent uses. Despite of the weird scent, I can't believe that the serum is almost finishing with 5% left, lasted for about one and half month (if use day and night)! In my opinion, it is a very basic serum as stated. </div><br />
Just a note if you're not sure about the difference between serum and moisturizer, serum is a lighter version of moisturizer, it gives you supplemented moisture into deeper layers of skin, it works like an added nutrients to your skin.<br />

</tbody></table> These roses are in purple, representing enchanted and love at first. What a coincidence, Cutie Fishball was asking me today if I want to pick up Stila Love At First Blush (retailing at USD14), this blush is embossed with endearing hearts in three ultra-wearable shades of pink, so gorgeous that it is indeed love at first for me ♥ :)<br />

So whether you're single or married (not receiving any flowers for this day), let's pick a little gift for ourselves, not necessarily a bouquet of flowers or expensive gift, just something to brighten up our day^^<br />

<div align="center">Liking the blueish design. Swatch this blue-black mascara on my hand (with noticable blue glitters).</div><div align="center"><br />
</div>Different from Majorca's permenant items, this new mascara is in blue-black liquid with fine blue glitter and jet black fibers. As the product says, it gives dramatic lashes with super lengthening effect. Waterproof resistant to sweat, sebum and tears. I will come back with a quick review once I try it out.<br />
<br />
<strong><span style="color: blue;">Artistic Nails (Speedy & Glossy)</span></strong> (4.5ml - SGD7.10) - Limited edition<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">Noticeable silver and orange glitters at closer look.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><br />
It has fine glitters in different colours (such as green, purple, silver, orange) with subtle pale pink base.<br />
<br />
Another item that worths checking out is: <br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;"><strong>Dress Glove Cream</strong> </span><span style="color: black;">(SGD 10.50)</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0jnpUvgAa0MY3W68ctA5POvbkZygUlIhRel1MYYYP8ekS3KsjYUBxOb9dF8TggA_xYCm0S21E6tayECa6oVzFyEZGOFvL84gWNha3iy1SZitdSW8t8knIOBTwb7_W9XKrD5McbWVX4jee/s1600/untitled.bmp" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" gda="true" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0jnpUvgAa0MY3W68ctA5POvbkZygUlIhRel1MYYYP8ekS3KsjYUBxOb9dF8TggA_xYCm0S21E6tayECa6oVzFyEZGOFvL84gWNha3iy1SZitdSW8t8knIOBTwb7_W9XKrD5McbWVX4jee/s200/untitled.bmp" width="200" /></a></div>This is Majorca's first scented and sparkling hand creams. It is formulated with raspberry and rose extract for extra silky moisture, with velvety-smooth glove feel. It can be used for body. This cream has glitters in it so skip it if you dislike it. I didn't pick up this item as I have too many hand creams lining up...:(<br />
<br />
My quick thought about this collection - If you allow me, I'm a little bit 'dissappointed' with this collection. In fact, I expect to see more surprising and fairy tale items in this Glass Trick Collction.<br />
<br />
Overall, it is not very fascinating like the past collection - Sugary Trap (click here for my <a href="http://jiejie2005.blogspot.com/2011/03/majolica-majorca-mm-spring-collection.html">Sugary Trap review</a>). Since its big hit Sugary Trap collection, Majorca has since 'slowed down' in creativity, not sure whether this is a good thing though.. <br />

I'm still hereHi everyone, Happy Be-lated New Year!! Sorry for the lack of posts lately as I was super busy for the past two and a half months - between work, travelling and Lunar New Year etc....<br />
<br />
It's not easy to juggle blogging and my personal life... As for now, I will try to blog at least once a month. Hope to see you soon in my next post^^Jie Jiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07120236361270809811noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3216912658110812386.post-77995747349350330882011-11-06T15:56:00.001+08:002011-11-16T17:16:31.577+08:00Naruko review - Narcissus Total Defense (Part I)<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I got to know Naruko through Fuzkittie, a Youtube beauty guru :). Just google it and you will find her reviews and also reviews from other beauty bloggers raving about Naruko products and ways to order it. You can either do a bulk order (basically sharing shipping costs with your friends or other buyers) at <a href="http://www.naruko.com.tw/shop/"><span style="color: purple;">Naruko Taiwan Official website in Mandarin</span></a>. My beauty pal, cutie fishball recently ordered her Naruko from Naruko Taiwan website, check out her post <a href="http://cutiefishball.blogspot.com/2011/09/naruko-taiwan-custom-order.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+DiyCraftsBeautyAndManyMore+%28DIY+crafts%2C+beauty%2C+and+many+more%5E%5E%29"><span style="color: #741b47;">here</span></a> :).</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I'm glad that I can either order directly from <a href="http://www.naruko.sg/shop/"><span style="color: purple;">Naruko Singapore</span></a> or get it from selected Watson Stores in Singapore, although the pricing is averagely about 40% more, but thinking of the shipping costs and waiting time etc etc.. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">A quick snapshot of Naruko if you're new to Naruko. Naruko is a Taiwanese skincare brand created by a skincare Doctor, Niu Er. He is very popular in Taiwan and has been sharing his beauty tips in a Taiwanese beauty show called <em>Beauty Queen </em>and<em> Beauty Queen Magazine. </em></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">As far as I know, correct me if I'm wrong, Fuzkittie should be the first beauty guru introducing Naruko (she is a regular Naruko user for years, I think). Do check out her latest videos here <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmNTManJUQU&feature=channel_video_title"><span style="color: #a64d79;">Fuzkittie's review</span></a>. She always gives her honest opinion, no exaggerating.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I started using Naruko products not long ago, the first one is Naruko Narcissus Total Defense and follow by Magnolia from the Firming and anti-wrinkle series, Raw Job's Tears. I will also be starting on the Apple Seed treatment once I'm done with Naruko Narcissus. So stay tuned if you're interested:).</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Here's my view on Naruko products which I had already finished/almost finishing.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Basically, these two products look the same to me. It does the basic cleaning and leaves the moisture on my skin. It has this 'gel' thing (perhaps it's the Narcissus extract bulb or the Phytoferulin complex) in it. I kept rubbing my skin and somehow the oiliness on my skin cannot be taken away, same for the makeup remover. In my view, it suits dry skin more than combination/oily skin. It is also a personal preference that I prefer more thorough cleansing formula, it is just too mild for me. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">My recommendation for Naruko: please consider reformulating the makeup remover so as to distinguish it from the facial wash, making it a more powerful makeup remover.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

I always want to try Guerlain meteorites but have to think twice on the shimmery finish (don't want to end up like a crystal ball), but after reading Fruitylashes review, I will definitely give it a try this time :).<br />
<br />
Fruitylashes.com has done a detailed review on this illuminating powder, here's her final thoughts:<br />
<em>"The silver pearl is the one key pearl that gives a brighter look with a cool tone for winter and holiday season. Even though the effect isn’t dramatic, it makes you look glowy with a hint of snowy white on the cheeks. The glow is so fine that even camera cannot capture."</em><br />
<br />
<em>"With all the meteorites in common, Perles de Nuit enhances the complexion in a subtle way. Don’t think it’s similar to one that you already have, it’s just one luxurious item that you know you want to indulge and it’s quite addicting. Once you start, you’ll want everyone of them."</em><br />
<br />

</tbody></table>This is 4-pan eyeshadow comprises of one matte shade and 3 shimmery shades which according to reviews, the shimmers are extremely fine and stunning! Each shade is distinct and in the following textures:<br />
<br />
IRIDESCENT: tiny pearly particles that release luminous colour with an iridiscent finish. <br />
MATTE: an extra-matt, ultra-soft finish for ultimate comfort. <br />
VELVET SATIN: perfect glide for a velvety result that feels soft and delicate. <br />
ALCANTAR'EYES: a metallic finish with unbelievable softness. <br />

</tbody></table>As I read from other beauty bloggers, this blush in a sleek case works more like a highlighter as the shade (soft pink, coral red and blue green) is very sheer. It has a nice violet scent which is a pull factor for me to get this! <br />

</tbody></table>Jie Jie view:</div><div style="text-align: left;">As you can see, these are mostly neutral shades. Needless to mention much about the pigmentation, each eye shadow is pearlized with soft texture. There is not much fall out when I swatched it on my hand (but few swatches are required to make the colours show up). You would probably say all these palettes look almost the same except for the shade at the bottom left of each palette. I thought so too at first glance. In fact, the focus shade should be on the bottom right. It is recommended to apply the darker shade (bottom right) first, then blend it with the main shade from the bottom left. This will create the so-called 3-D effect on eyes. This palette is absolutely very versatile as each shade can be applied sheer or layered for a more dramatic look as you wish. I pick 02 - soft beige for a 'soft' everyday look and 05 - deep beige for fun night out look:).<br />
<br />
By the way, I agree with <em>A Touch of Blush</em> that this Lunasol eye shadow palette should not be missed, it is a neutral palette which definitely suits someone who prefers wearable everyday look, like myself (Note: if you have been following my blog, I'm always in favour of wearable <em>everyday</em> look, especially for work).</div> <br />

<div style="text-align: left;">This is eye primer in cream . I'm currently using Paul and Joe and NARS smudge proof eye shadow base which are in liquid form. If it is not for the beauty essence ingredients, I would not consider getting it. <br />
<br />
I've read some reviews about this eyelid base that it will grease easily, especially if you have oily eye-lid like mine. It does glide on smoothly on my eye lid and even out my eye lid tone naturally. Just dab a little bit on the eye-lid to avoid greasing. As expected, it does keep the eye shadow shade more intense and last through for about 6 hours with little fading (especially after lunch). However, it greases on my eye-lid like after 4 hours but this is absolutely fine with me :). </div><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">Received a sample of Lancome's newly launched skincare product - Visionnaire (1ml). It is an advanced skin corrector that reduces fine lines, pores and skin texture imperfections. It is safe for all skin types, even sensitive skins. </div><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">Visionnaire Skin Corrector contains LR 2412 which is a molecule designed to propel through skin layers. I have extracted some information about Lancome Visionnaire Skin Corrector:</div><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">"<em>On its path, it triggers a cascading series of micro-transformations and acts biologically on the 12 key targets of aging. LR 2412 is a small molecule. It is also amphiphilic, which means it is able to merge naturally with both aqueous and lipid structures in the skin. As soon as it is applied, LR 2412 therefore merges with surface lipids without impairing skin's barrier function. It is such a visionary molecule that it is now protected by 20 International Patents!" </em></div><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;"><em>"It can be integrated into your routine in addition to your usual products. It has a non-oily formula which means that it will not make your skin sticky if you layer it with other products." </em></div><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;"><em>"So powerful that 2 out of 3 women tempted by a cosmetic procedure intended to postpone it - based upon the self-assessment of the total of all consumers tested at 4 and 6 weeks."</em> </div><br />
Wow...sounds amazing huh? I have tried it for the past three days (with Lancome Genifique Youth Activator) and so far have not noticed any significant results yet (some said immediate improvement ..). Anyway, I'm hoping for the 'miracle' improvement in my pores with this limited amount (1ml) of Visionnaire. <br />

</tbody></table>Product description:<br />
A gel-type eye shadow palette from Spring 2011 collection. Each palette has four colors that creates two different looks - elegant sheen and glamorous luster. Use the "Shimmery Pearl" on the right of the compact to create different radiant looks to suit all occasions. The shimmer powder is coated in fine gel beads that maintain color and shine.<br />
<br />
Available in:<br />
BL331<br />
VI342<br />
BE313<br />
PK354<br />
<br />
Jie Jie's view: <br />
It is in soft tone and the shades are very light (as you can see from the swatches). All shades come with shimmery, especially ④ which has visible glitters. Pigmentation, as compared to Lunasol is slightly below expectation. My preference will be ② and ③ for more wearable every day look. Really like the combination of light purple and grayish-brown that creates the dimension as illustrated in Maquillage website <a href="http://www.maquillage.shiseido.com/sg/point/allitems/eyes/item81.html">Maquillage's illustration on Lighting Eyes Creator</a>. In Jie Jie's view, you can skip this palette if you have the similar colors or prefer more intense colour than natural, or you are not a fan of Maquillage (I do agree that the palette is pricey). For me, I definitely love this palette although it is shimmery, I just need to apply with a light hand and mix with other matte eye shadow to create an acceptable office look :).<br />
<br />
My next pick would be BE313 or PK354 :).<br />
<br />
Next will be the highlight of this post - the new liquid rouge!<br />

</tbody></table>Product description:<br />
It is a essence glamorous rouge which has gel silicon in it. It has this bounce hold effect to create plumping and gloosing veil (to cover rough and uneven patches). Non-fragrance.<br />
<br />
It has 6 colours available, from natural to glamorous shade:<br />
BE 790 Nude Glamour Beige<br />
RD 791 Harmonious Red<br />
OR 292 Tint Coral<br />
PK 393 Hot Pink (highly recommended shade)<br />
RS 794 Blush Rose (Jie Jie's pick)<br />
RS 595 Rouge Rose <br />
<br />
Do check out the commercial video on <a href="http://www.maquillage.shiseido.com/sg/point/cm/index.html">Liquid Rouge - Chu-New-Lip!</a> and <a href="http://gakuu.com/chu-new-lip/">http://gakuu.com/chu-new-lip/</a> for intepretation of chu-new-lip.<br />
<br />
Jie Jie's view:<br />
It is tinted lip gloss and really creates the plumping effect. It is moisturing and this liquid rouge has very fine shimmers which is unnoticeable. The staying power is satisfactory but with slight stickiness on my lips after a few drinks. <br />
<br />
In Jie Jie's view, you should try it, considering the unique packaging and plumping effect. My next pick would be RD791 or RS 595 :).<br />
<br />
I also picked up Maquillage lip liner as I have finished up Revlon color-stay lip liner.<br />

It glides on smoothly and does not dry my lips. It is long lasting, same as Revlon's one. I know, some would probably say it is pricey for a lip liner. In Jie Jie's view, it is refillable (the refill is S$24) as compared to Revlon lip liner which is about S$19 plus. I would definitely repurchase it. </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

</div><div style="border: currentColor;"><em>Earl Grey Tea and Macaron Sheet Mask (One box comes with 2 pieces) - S$3.60 at Guardian Store</em><br />
<br />
Product description: </div><div style="border: currentColor; text-align: justify;">A brightening pearl mask which helps to illuminate and clarify the face in a 20-minute treatment. Each mask has 23ml of ingredients such as sweet yeast extract, bergamot essential oils, citrus fruits extract (orange and lemon), essence from sweet almond, egg whites and cane sugar and others. Tea protects and perfects skin's whiteness whereas macaron enriches with a translucent brightness. It also contains fragrance.</div><div style="border: currentColor;"><br />
</div><div style="border: currentColor; text-align: justify;">Jie Jie's view: </div><div style="border: currentColor; text-align: justify;">I bet no one could resist the packaging, it is absolutely cute and gives you the feel of having elegant afternoon tea! The mask really smells like citrus tea. Just leave it on for about 15 to 20 mins, remove it and pat dry. I normally wait for about one hour or so, then rinse it off with water ('cos the essence had already absorbed into my skin). I can feel that my skin is supple with slight brightening effect. No irritation noted. Thumbs up and must try :)! </div><div style="border: currentColor;"><br />
