Nivea Cleansing Wipes

You know what's the cure to laziness on removing make up at the wee hours

This!

Bought it from Priceless $9.90 for pack of two. It's about the same price to Malaysia price after convertion. It's rather effective in removing my make up including my waterproof mascara (Maybelline). Of course it can't beat doing the 3 facial cleansing steps. It make me feel a little sticky at times.

The cloth is well lubricated though, not as dry but I do feel sometimes it's too much.

They even comes with clip to keep the packet close and not dried up.

Yes, it's definitely a little more pricey compare to normal make up remover. I only use it during those night when I couldn't be bother (ie. tipsy night.heh.)

Elianto Brush Cleaner

I have always been stingy and wash my brushes with water and shampoo. After stalking so much make up blog, I heard/read its better to used a proper brush cleaner.

So in the end, I bought Elianto Brush Cleaner, one of the most affordable brand.


If I remember correctly its about RM15 buck plus plus after 10% discount.



The size is substantial for the amount I pay for I guess. I have got it for almost 2 months, honestly after a few use I am rather disappointed.

I tried it out with some of brushes


Eyeshadow, concealer, kabuki and blusher brushes. Clearly you can see my concealer brush still have a whole lot of concealer junk stuck to it. After soaking and swirling for quite long.


Meanwhile, I do not know it its the brush cleaner or my brush, the liquid from light blue turn to dark bluish black. My blusher brush dye came off so badly. sigh. It could be brush to blame though.

In fact for my kabuki, its softer when I wash with shampoo and water than this brush cleaner. However for eyeshadow and eyeliner brush its ok, so I'm using it for those two.

I think I will just stick to water and shampoo for now. save money too.

Weekend Haul - Mineral Make Up

Finally I dips my little toes into Mineral Make Up after looking at it for so long.

Truth to be told, my interest is spark of by Everyday Mineral Flat Top brush first.
Soft and dense. How can someone not be interested.

I found out about Loving Minerals after surfing around about make up and had also been reading bout it in some local blogs.

Put my orders, and here it is! :)


Actually I have only ordered the Everyday Minerals flat top brush and a Lumiere deep liner (black cherry). I got a sample of Sand, finishing powder from the purchase too. yay!

Upon COD, Lynn from Loving Minerals brought some sample size along with her,Yay for me!
As I always wanted to try this sample size set (3 foundations, 1 finishing and 1 blusher) but never want to get it because I am clueless about my foundation shade. I get to choose it on the spot and purchase.

Thanks for the colour recommendation, Lynn!


There, there. I can wait to try them out. :)
I will blog more about it once I try.

Oh and I got a new make up remover. The Simple one is utterly useless... sorry to say.


Lets hope this is better

Daiso Haul 2

Its hard to resist going into Daiso everytime I'm in Curve now. Its so tempting to oogle at the rows of five bucks make up and discover some wonders :)

These the stuff that I bought home with me, a make up corrector pen/stick and a eyeshadow/liner pencil.

This make up corrector is also recommended by May and it is totally awesome! If you have smear any mascara or eyeliner out of place, simply draw it over with this stick annnnnddd voila, wipe with tissue and gone :) no smear nothing!

The tip feels like a marker but a little bit more waxy. Awesome my sizzle. Get it!

I took another 10 min to choose this, wondering between this eyeshadow stick or some random eyeliner or mascara. I guess the colour attracted me, the pretty deep forest green.

Look, nice green ain't it?



The colour on the pencil looks deep, however the swatch seems brighter and not so deep toned and also look much blue-er. This swatch does not show its exact colour. :( I hate my camera.
The texture is pretty smooth and easy application, however it is 0% smudge proof. I can rub it off with my finger... sigh. wasted.

All in all, interesting buy. I'm using it as a thick eyeliner line with little smudges and lined with another green eyeliner on top.

Simple Eye Make-up Remover

Never underestimate how important an eye make-up remover is. Never.

My L'Oreal De-maq Expert Cashmere Milk lasted me quite a while. Note to self, cream type eye make-up remover last like 2-3 time longer than liquid.

I was left desprate one evening and intended to buy Maybelline Eye and Lip remover. However none in the pharmacy and I bought Simple Eye Make-up Remover instead. Partly because it was cheap, RM19.90 with discount to RM15.90

It claims to be 100% oil free. What the heck, good to know that since ALL make-up remover is oily.

So I put it to test.

top to bottom - Majorlica Majorca Mascara, Shu Drawing Pencil, Shu Liquid Eyeliner, Lancome Virtouse

Yeah, purposely tried it with the most 'hard to remove' mascara, to the least one, Lancome which can be washed off with warm water.

I soaked a cotton pad. Just swipe it over my hand, nothing happen. Proceed to rub a little.


After about 10-15 sec off rub. Damn. MM Mascara didn't seems to budge at all.

Then I tried pouring an ample amount right onto my hand. (testing what! haha)


Still there. gosh.
