Current makeup favorites


1)      Tony Moly Blush in Milky Violet
This year I’ve been into light pastel colored blushes and even mixing them with my neon pink shade blushes to give it a glowy youthful look.  I’ve tried milky pink shades but so far the ones with a purple tone look really nice on my skin.

2)      E.L.F Finishing Powder in Corrective Yellow
This is a great power to set your overall makeup look and it makes my skin look much brighter and smoother.  The best part is it’s so much cheaper than other brands out there.  It originally comes in a black packaging but I transfer the powder to a clear jar for two reasons, one so it can fit in my drawer and second so I can see the product. 

3)      Revlon Color Stay Whipped Creme Makeup
I’ve been obsessed with BB Cream that I completely ignored regular foundation and even sold a lot of them on my blog sale.  However to be honest BB Cream doesn’t give me enough coverage as a foundation would so I manage to go through my makeup stash and found my only foundation that I still kept and I’m glad I didn’t sold it!  Just like their Colorstay liquid foundation that I use to love this one applies real nicely on my skin and lasted for an entire day.  Maybe one day I’ll pick up the liquid foundation and use it again.

4)      Sonia Kashuk Sheer Liquid Tint in Poppy
I manage to purchase this item on sale at target for around $2.00 since they’re discontinued.  I really like the nice coral color look on my cheeks especially during the summer and it never faded or melt off my skin on days that were humid and hot.  For this product I only need a tiny bit for both my cheeks!

5)      Mac So Sweet,  So Easy Cream Blush
Another of one of my obsession for milky pink blushes, I like to use this cream blush as my base before I apply powder blushes. 
 

6)      Skinfood Salmon Concealer
I purchase this concealer on ebay for around $10.  It’s very creamy so a little goes a long way, it’s not heavy coverage but its buildable. 
 

1)      Etude House Cherry Fresh Tint in “Peach”
I wanted to get the Benefit Cha Cha tint since I’ve already enjoyed their Posie Tint but I didn’t want to spend a hefty $30 for another tint so I decided to try the Etude House as it was so much cheaper.  So far I really like the coral shade on my lips compare to pink shades. 

2)      The Body Shop Brow and Liner Kit in “Dark Brown/Black”
I’m still a rookie when it comes to doing my eyebrows so I’m trying to find all the good brow products in the market.  So far this Body Shop brow duo is working well for me and matches my brow and hair color perfectly without looking too dark or light. 

3)      Missha The Style Perfect Eyebrow Styler in “Gray Brown”
Another good brow product I like but in a pencil form, this one is so much more convenient to apply in the morning when I’m in a rush.  The only dislike I have on this product is the lead part keeps sliding off the tube!

Collective Haul: Korean skincare and drugstore goodies

I know I need to stop with these hauls, I keep spending money but some of them were on sale!  still...I can't help myself >_<

Ebay
Holika Holika 3 Second Starter Collegen moisturizer and the Etude House Wonder Pore Freshner.  I really can't wait to try the Freshner, I heard so many positive reviews on it.

Tony Moly Egg Pore collections, I've been very curious on these products and since I have a lot of clog pores on my face I thought I give these a try.  Tony Moly packaging is absolutely adorable, I can see myself reusing them by adding other products in the future ^^

Etude House Face Color Corset blush in Lavender Veil and Tony Moly Crystal Blusher in Milky Violet.  I was inspired by the famous Japanese model Tsubasa Masuwaka blush style where she mix a pastel/milky lavender tone blush with a bright pink blush to achieve a youthful dolly look so I wanted to give these a try since I heard they were affordable dupes of her Dolly Wink blushes. 

Sasa
They were offering free shipping on any total so I end up getting this famous Laneige Sleeping pack a try. 

Urban Decay
I wanted to try all of their makeup sprays so I got most of them from their sale section on their site.  These were only $12 each compare to $29, it looks like they were getting rid of the old packaging.  So far i tried the All Nighter spray and it's actually pretty good. 


 Alpha Hydrox
They had a buy 2 get 1 free on their website so I got a A LOT of their 10% Glycolic AHA Treatment Gel which I tend to go through these stuff pretty quickly in my skincare regime.  I made a review on their lotion version (here) which is similar to the gel formula except it's lighter in texture and good for summer and I only use them at night. 


CCO
It's been awhile that I purchase something at the CCO let alone anything from Mac but since I'm in a lavender blush craze I found this one which looks really nice.  The shade is called "Full of Joy" from the Tres Cheek Collection.


Sears
ATTENTION if you live near a Sears department store that also includes an extended drugstore cosmetic area run to your local Sears because all makeup and skincare is 50% off!  Also Sears accept manufacturer coupons (on sunday papers) which they allow you to use them with your purchase, at least mine do.  
Now back to what I purchase, I got two Lumene makeup remover, a backup of the Physician's Formula Eyeliner,  Garnier Moisture Rescue Cream for Dry Skin, Rimmel Taupe eyeliner and Maybelline's Coral Lipbalm. 

That's all for the hauls, thank you for reading!
