I'm not really a lipstick girl...But I seem to have an addiction to collect lipsticks...

The Dior addict line of lipsticks have a pretty nice range of colors. They tend to have a more sheer and glossy finish.

 I have had the Highshine 454 for almost 2 years...and never really like it until recently. Surprisingly, I like this better than the Addict lipsticks. It offers a really nudey/soft/glossy finish to the lips, and its perfect for day time wear.

 The lasting power of these lipsticks are quite short...So constant reapplying the lipstick might be required if you want to keep the same color as you initially applied. 

  I find these lipsticks only wear well when the lips are nicely moisturized. They tend to accentuate the lines between the lips and make the lips peel abit. I also have a small problem with getting some of the lipsticks on the front teeth, even though I blot it with a tissue paper before.

Dior Addict extreme - 553 Princess Extreme (new Spring 2013)

I personally prefers the Extreme line of lipsticks  as it offers better pigmentation and lasting power. The Princess extreme is my new favorite color from Dior Spring 2013 ,as it provides a nice coral/pink color to the lips and perfect for both day/night wear.

 Did I mention that these wear better on the lips as well? They don't emphasize the quacks on the lips as much, and provide a smoother/juicier finish :).

Review: Lancome Dual Finish Versatile Powder Foundation Makeup

I have always been trying out new foundation powders over the years...And I gotta say, this is one of my favorite foundation powder. The shade I have is  Matte Neutrale II (W).. The texture of this powder foundation is really finely milled. I would say the coverage of this foundation is medium to build-able.  I wouldn't say this is a heavy duty full coverage powder, as it doesn't cover acne or marks. One of the reasons why I love this foundation a lot is the longevity that it gives. I usually apply my  makeup around 7:30am in the morning...and I have a typical OL work schedule. So by the end of the day (I would say at least 8 hrs later), I can still see the foundation set really nicely on my skin. For alot of other foundation powders that I have try (ex. chanel)..this Lancome powder does not oxide as much on me. The color stay pretty much the same as I applied. But of course, it does wear off a bit at the end of the day. But I really love how long it stays o...

Review: Marc Jacob's Perfection Powder Featherweight Foundation

Deng Deng Deng! I placed an order through Sephora.ca about a month ago, as I was very interested in trying Marc Jacob's new makeup line. I pretty much made the order when the line was first launched, so I had no idea which will be hits or misses.  The one product I wanted to try out was the powder foundation - Let's talk about the packaging... Like every other reviewers, Marc Jacob definitely did a great job in designing his products.  He differentiated his products by rounding the 4 edges on the side, while keeping the traditional black sleek case trend.  He also got a little silver push button at the side, which adds a little bit of classiness to the look.  Once the compact is opened, you can see a huge mirror on the lid, and because of this, the weight of the foundation is relatively heavier compared to other compact foundations. Now on to the product - The color I got is 300 Beige (I am normally a shade 30 in Dior/Chanel foundations)...

My Shu-Uemura Art of Hair - Experience Journey

SILK BLOOM RESTORATIVE SHAMPOO FOR DAMAGED HAIR I love the bottle and smell of this baby. It's  got a soft, subtle and feminine scent and it lingers on the hair after the wash. This shampoo is excellent for those with damaged hair, medium to thicker hair. I have noticed a difference to my hair after a few week of usage. For me, my hair has been damaged over the years of hair dyes. As much as I want to 'restore' the thickness of my hair, it has been going thinner as I get older :(.... I miss the days where I have full volume and thick hair... Anyway, back to this product. The shampoo has a rich lotion texture, once you start to massage the shampoo into the scalp, you'll start to feel it starting to make the hair softer. This shampoo does NOT strip the hair at all and it's safe for colored hair. I really recommend this to those with damaged/dry hair as it really does offer rich moisture to the hair while making it look healthy. I also noticed that my hair doesn...
