C Queen 12pc Luxury Makeup Brush Set

Sabrina Tajudin November 30, 2013 12 comments

Salam & hello everyone! Are you looking for a good makeup brushes? Well, let read my review on our own home grown brand makeup brushes!

This brush set comes with a travel container that you can use as a makeup brush holder! First expression, SO FLUFFY I WANNA DIE. Yes, the brushes are so soft. This sets comes in 12 piece of brush to all you need basic makeup brushes. Super convenient. If you are a beginner, this is just super awesome for you. Now I will review each brush and explain what is the use of it.

From Left to Right :

Large Powder - Use it for powder application. I also use it for blending my whole face especially if I applied to much of a blusher, this helps to blends out. Its soft but a bit rough to my opinion. But the roughness helps to really blend in the powder and make it look natural. Its super big too. Fit my whole cheek area.

Duo Fibre - Most commonly called as stippling brush. Use it for liquid of cram products. It also works like a buffer brush but not that dense. Application looks more of a air brush and light coverage looking. I also love to use this for my blusher when I need a nice natural application. I love to use this brush to dap on my cheek and it give me this nice subtle looking color. Made out of synthetic bristle.

Foundation - A traditional foundation brush. It is quite good, not that streaky when applied. Use it in downwards motion to apply cream/liquid foundation. I also love to use this ti blend in my tint cheek products. It helps smooths and blend in the color perfectly.

Large Angle Contour - Perfect for blush application as well as contouring products. The angle shape make a precise control on the cheek. One of the most reach brush I use in this collection. Perfect for a quick run blush application.

From Left to Right :

Tapered Blending - Must have eye brush. Use this for blending. Its the key to that perfect eyeshadow. Blend blend blend and this is the tool. Works perfectly on my crease to blend 2-3 colors softly. I love this!

Large Sahder - I use this to conceal my under eye area. In patting motion this works quite well with cream and liquid products. The size area also just nice because it act like your finger.

Eye Shading - Best use for packing up eyeshadow on the lid which is one of the first step in eyeshadow application. It picks up powder shadow super easy and helps to holds up white padding it on your lid. Super sift and easy to use.

Medium Angle Shading - Convenient to use for the inner corner application. Soft as it is help to pick up eyeshadow nicely.

Concealer - Maybe this is use to apply concealer specially on the face area (covering spots and pimple) . rarely use this one. The material is like the foundation brush but this is kinda like the smaller version.

Pencil - I love this brush, love to use it for my lower line. Works like a pencil, obviously. It also helps to blend in eyeshadow on small details part of the eye.

Small Angle/Eyebrow brush - Use this everyday for my brow. Its not stiff but perfectly hard to help brush and line my brow. Love this! You gotta have this one too!

Eyeliner - I don't really use this one because I don't have cream eyeliner. I probably use this for that. Also you can use it to apply lipstick. It works well on that too.

Sabrina Tajudin 11 comments

Salam & hello everyone! Owh its 29th already! Tomorrow is the last day of the Benefit Mini Giveaway! Woot woot! Can't wait to pick the winners! I wish I can do Giveaway everyday, its fun to give people gifts! <3 Well, back to the stuff, I have receive another MIVVA Box for the month of November, and this month theme is BFF Sleepover-kit! Let see what is inside this month kit.

1. STAGE Nail Color | RM35

They are featuring dark red color in the catalog but I bet there are more colors than this. I don't really use nail polish due to wudu' purposes but I am once a nail polish fan. Sometimes I do play with nail polish. Aa, I miss the moment where I can play nail polish with my girls. In my box I receive a nail color in the shade Winsome. Its a dark metallic red-maroon color. The texture is not tacky at all, the application is smooth and I can say reminds me of OPI. Good stuff here, and what points up its a full size item.

2. Facial Essences Collagen Mask | RM198.80 for 15g

At first I am like, WOAH! RM198.90 for 15g? Its a price for one mask is it? But, I never thought of buying a 3 figure ringgit mask. Haha, this better be good. I never use it yet. It claims to be a mask with Hyluronic Acid and various Botanical extracts in mask. It ensure your skin with long time moisturizing.

3. ONL Dermost Moistay Fresh Gel Cream | RM44.90 for 60ml

Claims to be a pure hydration for skin with much sebum. Gel cream contains 100% spring water in its base. 1x pcs sachet of skincare. Never tried it yet. Em...

4. ONL Dermost Moistay Cream | RM144.90 for 60ml

Another sachet but this one I got 2 pcs of them. It is a spring water cream for balanced adjustment of oil and water. Hydrating and calming cream with soft touch for intensive moisturizing and adjustment of oil/water balance. Basically a cream for your face just like moisturizer.

5. NEULA 5 in 1 Oil Control Face Lotion | RM22.90 for 30ml

I heard of this brand where some people raved about its pimple gel. I was hoping to get the BB Cream actually. hehe. In this month box you either get this one, the cleanser or the BB Cream. I got the moisturizer. Said to be a anti pimple, oil control, pore minimize, rejuvenate and soothes moisturizer. Its a full size item.

6. Antipodes Joyful Hand & Body Cream | RM149 for 120ml

Sorry, there is no image of this product, was told not to take a picture of it since it comes in sample bottle and they don't want people to get confuse with the actual product. I seriously don't know why because I don't think its a harm, but I have seen other bloggers post the picture up. :( Sad actually because of all items in this box, I actually really like this one. It smells divine! I hope I can find a perfume smells this good. I also saw Essie Button review this. Its original package comes in a aluminium kinda tube. But seriously, this smells really good, if I have some extra cash, I really wanna buy the full size one.

They also include the net for shower. Glad its pink! I like! Lastly, they are having the grand finale for the year end and conjunction for the Xmas box! I bet its gonna be big since its a special month to them.

Yadah Bloom Mascara Review

Sabrina Tajudin November 27, 2013 8 comments

Salam & hello everyone! As promise, here is the another mascara from Yadah that I said I wanna review after I have review the other mascara called the Highlash mascara, you can read it here (link). If you have not read my previous post, as I mention, Yadah will be launch a few new product in conjunction for this coming Christmas. These products will be available in December together with the YES sale that will be happening in Sasa Malaysia.

This mascara claims to give you more superior lash volume and length without smudging and it is water resistance. Also it claims to be remove easily with luke warm water, contains ample cellulose to enrich your lash, free from Paraben, artificial fragrance and animal derivatives. Formulated with Yadah signature ingredient that is the Opuntia Ficus that said to nourish your lash. It is also safe for sensitive eyes.

Packaging wise, this also comes in a box packaging with details on it. The tube is made out of hard plastic. The wand is easy to hold and control. The comb of this mascara is curved a bit. This helps you to control better for that curling result for your lash. Compare this to the Highlash Mascara, I like this one better. This mascara claims to be a volumizing mascara, and really does. It does not clumps like the Highlash ones (It does a bit but it looks volumizing to my opinion) and this does lengthens, volumize and curls! This also does not have funny scent to it. Easily removes with makeup remover and I am not sure about the warm water because I haven't tried that. I don't have a water heater at home, haha. This also works great on my bottom lashes. Note to this, I do curl my lash before and after using mascara to enhance the appearance of curled lash. The mascara helps to make it curler and thicker. I recommend this to anyone who have long lash but want that curled and volume lash look.

Name : Yadah Bloom Mascara Review
Price : RM35.00
Availability : (In December 2013)
Where To Buy : Stores - Sasa Malaysia, Online - Zalora.com.my, Hermo.my and MIVVA.com
Net Weight : 9g

You can also check out Sasa Malaysia YES sale! Starting today till 1 January. So check out these awesome deals if you wanna grab some Yadah products! You can read my previous review on Yadah product here (link)
