Rave review: Zoeva make up brushes! (Stippling, Silk Finish, Face Shape, Concealer Buffer, Crease, Eye Blender, Eye Finish)

Zoeva make up brush love! I know this brand has been just exploding everywhere on blogs and on youtube! I've already owned these brushes for more than 4 months now and have had such an amazing time with each and every one of these beauties. If you can't afford expensive or top notch make up, you should at least focus on getting quality brushes! The best thing is that good brushes often don't have to cost you an arm or leg!

I purchased all of these in two different purchases from Luxola.com as it's the most convenient for me living in Singapore! I just couldn't believe how damn cheap these sold for as no name brands, eco tools and Real techniques retail here for up to double the price of most of Zoeva's!

Review: Born Pretty Store High Grade Flat Concealer and Foundation Brush!

Flat and for foundation! I've always been comfortable and still very much use my fingers for applying foundation. I don't need much coverage so having a perfectly even coat of base doesn't bother me sometimes but having a perfectly blended base is what concerns me! I have had two of my favorite fluffy stippling brushes die the last few months and I've since bought new face brushes.

One of my new foundation brushes is this petite flat top concealer and foundation brush! I have used it a few times now and I think I've got enough experience to speak about how I feel about its performance!

Review: Color Combos Ultra Smooth 2 way Cake in 02 Beige! (FOTD/ contouring)

How do I like my skin? Smooth, clear and matte! This was a goodie I picked up back in December when I was purchasing skincare bits! For those who don't know, I'm attending a culinary school, hence make up is not allowed. I do use powder, always, as its what I need at the least.

Check out my skincare December haul here!

Since I go through so much powder all the time I decided to try this which was on sale for $13 SGD instead of the UP of $19 SGD. It only had 2 shades, 01 and 02, I picked up 02 and currently after a lot of use have maybe 30% of product left!

Check out my compiled end of year haul of skincare, cosmetics and clothes here!

Haul: Sasa End of Year Sale~! (food, chiffon tops, FOTD)

Asian make up glory! That's Sasa! There was a big 20% off on most skin care and make up at Sasa a few weeks ago. I was with my mom and I picked up a few things for her and myself to try. Nothing special but its awesome to try new things!

After a bit of shopping we had some Japanese for lunch and we both picked up some lovely tops!

Review: Bobbi Brown's Basic Brush Collection!

Did someone say brushes? Make up brushes! I'm a huge fan of learning how to use new types of brushes for different types of make up. They make a huge difference in how products apply and can be needed in order to use certain products and textures.  

This gorgeous Basic Brush Collection was purchased three years ago in Roma International Airport~!

Quick look: Make up removing wipes (Biore, Elianto, NuFresh)

We all know we should be removing our make up with cleansers, scrubs, make up removers or some sort of oil but then there are those lazy days...or times we need to get it off quickly!

Here are different wipes I use for removing make up and cleaning make up brushes on the go!

Rave Review: Kate Gel Eyeliner in 3 shades! (easy EOTD w/liner)

Finally! This has been put off for far too long! I've been using these for about 3 months now and loving every bit of these glorious pots of gel liner!

After trying a bunch of waterproof eyeliners and nothing really being 'waterproof' I picked up the Kate gel eyeliner in BK-1 (black) on a whim...only to discover it was one of the best make up moves I've made!

Local beauty blogger at Bun Bun Make up tips also raves and love the affordability and quality of these as much as I do! Check out her review and comparison with MAC's gel eyeliner!
