Blushers

I really have no idea how some beauty blogs can be so dedicated and post up stuff everyday. Lucky they do or else I will have to read miserable finance news or something.

I think I was bored one night and start swatching all my blushers on my arm.


1. The Body Shop Sun Lustre Bronzer
2. Lancome Blush Subtil (casing faded, no colour name)
3. MAC Dainty
4. TBS Sun Lustre Bronzer + Bobbi Brown Pot Rouge Pale Pink
(I got to mixed a new colour :) )
5. Bobbi Brown Pot Rouge in Pale Pink
6. Bobbi Brown Pot Rouge in Pink Truffle



I think the blusher that I currently utilise the most is MAC Dainty.

Easy application and the colour pay off won't be too heavy for work. As you can see from the swatches its actually one of the lightest. I love it as it give me this sort of glowing, natural no blusher look without looking pale. (or so I think it does... )

My second runner up would be between Lancom Subtil or BB Pot Rouge.



This two pic I capture is closes to its real colour.

I love Lancome one for its easy application as its powder form but it can be quite pigmented but if applied lightly, its look pretty peachy and pretty.

For BB, don't let the pink scares you! ok it scares me a bit too last time. Since its a cream blush, the application take a little more time as it need to be blended. Once blend nicely, I look like I have a healthy dewy flush, none of the other blushers give me that type of dewy look. One pot goes a long way too...

After


See not too bad right? :)

Blusher can be such a pretty thing sometimes.

I can't wait to lay my grubby little fingers on NARS Blushers. Oh and Majorlica Majorca and and and MAC Petticoat! ok and the list goes on.

Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealer

I have been wanting this since the longest time, but it's concealer and it's not as exciting as eyeliner or blusher. So I have been pushing it at the back of my wishlist. Sigh.

Yesterday I control myself not to be wow by eyeshadow, eyeliner and blusher and bought this!




and Yay its good! Much much better than my old concealer, as it's a little drying. It's creamier and easy to apply. I don't need to tugged my under eyes so much to spread the concealer. Whee.


The colour I used is Sand. Very close to my skin colour.



Look at the interesting texture... like a film of oil hahaha

One concern for me though, since this concealer is so much creamier, it make me wonder will it smudge my eyeliner and mascara easier.. I will wear and give it a trial run few more time before I conclude this the best. but it's pretty awesome, look...



I'm still contemplating should I include my pre-concealer picture. It might scare people away. Once my little brother ask me, what the black black thing under my eyes and I realise later he meant my eyebags... sigh.

and there goes my RM80.
