Sunless Tanning Tips + Review: L'Oreal Sublime Glow

11/03/2009 at 07:00PM

Yeah, I'm the Asian outcast. I actually don't wanna be white! Almost every cosmetic line available in Malaysia has a whitening range. Tanning products on the other hand, are almost non-existent except for Banana Boat Tanning Oils (will talk about it ...

Review: Shu Uemura UV Under Base Fluid SPF20++

11/02/2009 at 11:50PM

Makeup base has become a makeup essential for foundation-wearers. We try to keep cakey patches from alleged "touch-ups" to the minimum. Besides helping foundation to stay put throughout the day, a good base can soften the texture of the skin, making ...

As a sequel to my previous Revlon Matte Collection reviews, here's a tutorial using the featured products. One of my favorite combination is pairing blue with brown on the eyes while keeping the rest of the face pretty much neutral.Not much of an int...

Review: MAC Mineralize Blush in Superdupernatural + 2 MSFs

11/01/2009 at 11:12AM

Do you know what it feels like to find the perfect blush? The one that makes you smile whenever you wear it. The one that blinds you from all other blushers (maybe just one more say, NARS Dolce Vita?).I'll tell you what it feels like. It feels like f...

Reviews: Revlon Matte Collection

10/28/2009 at 11:40AM

Old skool matte is back! The Revlon Matte Collection reminds me of the era when women looked polished and not-to-be-messed-with as they move up the ladder of a man's world. It's the kind of beauty that means something. Check 90s Madonna out and you'l...

Review: Aesop Camellia Nut Facial Hydrating Cream

10/27/2009 at 07:16PM

Aesop is one of those brands that either disappears in your beauty radar or keeps intriguing you from the side line like the nerdy math whiz in school. In my case, it's the latter -- from the old laboratory feel to the aroma therapeutic scents to the...
