Hauls: Coastal Scents & NOTD

HEY ALL!

couple of weeks ago i ordered brushes and gel liner from Coastal Scents and couple days ago my order came! YAAAAYY~~

the small damage:

Gel Liners in True Black
Pink Round Crease Eye Brush
Italian Badger Blender

and they gave me free sample of eyeshadow in Persian Night. gorgeous green! me likeeey!

they put all the orders in a cute pink bag. oh wait, where did i put it?

Pink Round Crease Eye Brush. i like how the bristles are not too soft and not too stiff. just perfect shape!

Italian Badger Blender


Left: Pink Round Crease Eye Brush
Right: Italian Badger Blender

haven't tried both of the brushes tho. but they're pretty soft so i have high hopes for them since the blending brush that i have is a no-no and as far as i remember, i don't have a crease brush hohoho


Gel Liners in True Black. LOVE IT! too bad it doesn't come with a brush :( BOO!
yay: creamy, easy to apply, dry quickly when applied to your lid, long staying power. woo-hooooo!
nay: no brush, for me it's online shopping only >___<

free sample: shadow in Persian Night.

swatch:


it's pretty pigmented and shimmery. guess it'll be much much better when applied wet.
i'll try that later.

NOTD:

what i used:

Mavala Velvet (for base)
OPI Atomic Orange (should-be-diagonal dots)
OPI Green-wich Village and Konad Special Nail Polish in White (flowers)

it's the second day and haven't chipped even a little. me likey! maybe i'll take the pic again in a week to see how good the nail polishes and the toap coat are.

we will see.

HAVE A FANTABULOUS DAY, GUYS!

Eye Make Up Remover, No?

hey guys!


so i've been meaning to find a good eye make up remover

i've tried KATE, CLINIQUE, a japanese eye make up remover which i don't know the name, and some more.

so as far as i know CLINIQUE is the best eye make up remover i've ever tried


then i check makeupalley and check which product has the best reviews.

and i read that vaseline can be a great eye make up remover.

so i gave it a try.

using my make up from the night i went out with my family, i used clinique on my left eye and vaseline on my right eye.


so here's the review of both products.


Vaseline



Yay:

  • It does its job wonderfully
  • Doesn't make my eyelashes fall off
  • Doesn't leave my lid dry
  • Economically-friendly LOL


Nay:

  • You have to be very patient as it takes a lot of time to clean your eye make up


How to use?


take enough amount of vaseline onto your finger and rubs gently all over your eye lid and eyelashes.. then clean it with cotton gently.. make sure that the vaseline doesn't get in your eyes. lol. no, i'm serious.



Clinique




Yay:

  • It does its work well fast
  • Doesn't leave my lid dry

Nay:

  • Too pricey
  • It leaves red mark on my lid and it hurts huhu
  • Makes my eyelashes fall off :(


How to use?


It's as easy as 1, 2, 3. just take enough amount of clinique to the cotton and rubs gently over your eye make up and mascara. *maybe i did it harshly that made my eyelashes fall off huuuuuu*


Before:

After:


if you notice in the pic, after i finished cleaning my eye with clinique, the red mark appeared and it hurt. i'm not really sure but maybe clinique doesn't suit my skin well. guess i'll be using vaseline from now on.

Vaseline, yoroshiku onegaishimasu! :D

Hauls: OPI & Eyeko Cream

hey guys!


guess i've been neglecting my blog so bad sometimes i forgot i have one (or 2? or 3? 4? lol)
nee-ways,
couple days ago i went to a mall near my home to get Clinique Toner and i happened to see OPI's counter.
been curious about the brand for a while, i checked it out.
coz last time i remember, the price was pretty cheap. even cheaper than US.
but holy mother!
turned out the price is twice as US. LOL. silly me.

i wanted to try but unfortunately they didn't have samples. darn!
and then i saw couple packages with 4 cute little nail polishes.
one costs around $26. but i already fell in love with the pwetty colors.
good thing the shop assistant was so kind. she let me try the colors inside the package.

i couldn't resist so i bought them! it's called Teeny Bikinis from South Beach Collection.
and i bought one color from MAVALA.
it was much more cheaper compared to OPI o.O

so enough with my ramblings. here are the pictures.


from left to right (unfortunately they don't have cute names like US ones so i'm gonna name them myself): Sofuto Papa-ru, Hot Maroon, Warmy Pinky, RapiDry Top Coat, Mavala in Velvet


Sofuto Papa-ru: just like the name, it's soft purple kinda color. sorry if the pic is pretty blur. i need more skill to take good pics -__________-" the color is matte and it's fun to wear when u're bored with natural look but still looking for soft colors. a day in the mall would be perfect with this color i say.


Hot Maroon: it's kinda shimmery and the color makes your fingers POP! love it so much! wear it for a hot date, perhaps? ;)


Warmy Pinky: it's a shimmer pink color. very natural and preeettyyyyyy! guess it suits for a school day or "meet the parents-in-law-to-be" day hohoho..


Velvet: think this color suits me the best, don't you think? they look almost exactly like my natural nail colors, altho' a bit more shiny. maybe i should buy more colors from mavala since it's affordable lol

i had a very loooong looong time a go haul. actually i got it when i went back to indonesia, around early of march. it's the famous eyeko cream. i know i'm faar behind everybody for having it lol. and i rarely use it so, the same as my blog(s), i forgot i have 1! doh! so now i started using it day and night for my eyes only and it's been a help because now my lids are not so dry like they used to be.

so here's the famous cream!


the package is uber cute. i've never been a fan of pink but this one caught my eyes. small pretty pink box.


the content is amazingly sooo sooo much! it's shimmery cream that makes your skin kinda soft. but it absorbs greatly. doesn't make ur skin feeling greasy.

it's how the cream looks on my skin.


and this is how it looks after i rub it all over my skin. think it doesn't look too obvious but somehow you can see that my skin is glowing.

so that's pretty much what i've bought these days. i don't think i spend too much money on make up compared to when i was in germany T_______T

so, have a grrreeaaattt evening all!
