I was browsing through a magazine just now and the model with the some hair decoration which looked like a Bluetooth headset caught my attention. Her eye makeup is lovely and I was curious about the brand name called Majolica Majorca. Little that I know, it’s another makeup brand by Shiseido, one of my favorite skincare and cosmetic brands at all time.
There are 3 different combination of eyeshadow sets which you can get, but one of them is limited edition. I think the blue eyeshadow will be selling like hot cakes because blue has always been the color of spring and summer. I would get that set too if I’m buying one.
Eyeshadow collection
The Majolica Majorca collection also comes with mascara and lip gloss.
Mascara
Lip Gloss
I think most young girls will love to get the lip gloss just for that shimmering stripes. 
My friend is selling some products from Coverderm. After persuading me for weeks, I finally made up my mind to try some out. I bought the waterproof concealer for my dark circles and the makeup removal.
Coverderm Waterproof Concealer
Coverderm Makeup Removal
I tried both for days, and I have to say that the concealer is great at covering up my dark circles, but the fine lines are so visible after a while. Maybe it’s too thick, or I misuse it? Gee…looking for a good concealer is not easy. I tried lots of brands but my favorite one, believe it or not, it’s Loreal’s True Color. It’s cheap and thin. It’s not thick at all!!! So, I hardly see any fine lines after applying for a while.
As for the makeup removal, oh well, it’s just like the rest. Frankly, I can’t find much difference between one and another removal. LOL!
So, what am I going to do Coverderm? Dump it away in Wilmington real estate? LOL!
I went shopping just now and at first, I wanted to check out the new makeup collection by Estee Lauder.
I like the natural color of the eyes and lips, but most importantly, I wanted to get my hands on the latest mascara that can last as long as 15 hours. I have problems getting a mascara without smearing, even if I bought those waterproof mascaras, most of them won’t work for me. Why???
Double Wear Mascara by Estee Lauder
Too bad they don’t have the Double Wear mascara yet, and the promoter couldn’t tell me exactly when will it arrive in Ipoh. Gee…how disappointing as I was hoping to archive the effect of nice lashes like this:
But then again, I bought another mascara from Lancome. I was think about getting Lancome Virtuose Mascara but it’s not waterproof! After trying out the rest of the mascara from Lancome, I made up my mind to get the Amplicils from Lancome instead.
Lancome Amplicils
It won’t clump or flake. But let’s see if it will smear after a few hours. I’m trying it out now.
I used to be a big fan of Shiseido skincare products, but for the past 2 years, I only check out their cosmetics. I perfect Shiseido Maquillage makeups since the colors are more suitable for my skin tone, just like most Asian women.
This weekend, I might drop by the counter to check out their eyeshadow.
I will most probably get this set or the one in pinkish tone. That’s the color for me all the while, but what puzzles me with this multi-toned eyeshadow is how to blend it well to achieve that 3D and natural effect.
There are instructions given but I still need promoter to show me how to do it on my eyes. Seriously, I don’t have pretty eyes like the Japanese girls, ok?
Justine Case
I have been thinking about getting the justine case by Benefit Cosmetics for quite a while but I didn’t have time to visit the counter in KL. I know that I can just buy it online, but I would like to try out other items from Benefit as well.
But if I’m too desperate to get my hands on the set before Chinese New Year, online shopping is my only option now. Of course, it would be great if I can use some promo codes that waive the international shipping fee no matter how unlikely it is. Maybe I will find it selling at cheaper price at Amazon huh? If not, I would have to persuade hubby to bring me along on his working trip to KL so that I can do some serious shopping!
Dior Flower Blossom from Dior’s Spring 2008 Collection
Tell me you think it’s gorgeous too. I saw the ads from a few magazines and I’m tempted to get one now. To someone like me who hardly wears makeup, it’s more like a collection to me even if I can use the colors for both eyes and cheeks. I might not even use it a lot because I don’t want the patterns to wear out or smeared by me!
Nonetheless, I will check it out if I have time for shopping this weekend.
I wonder if I should get a copy of this makeup book called Beauty 103, written by Li Qian Rong? I am not good at Chinese, but I will try to figure it out by looking at the photos. Besides that, I’m more interested to know more about the products she used that the makeup tips. It’s not easy to figure out which products should we buy and most of the time, we will just ended up with tonnes of unfinished products on our dressing tables. All these books may have some commercial influence, but they provide insights on which products are better too.
Let’s see if I have time to grab a copy from the book store…
I wanted to get some skin care and cosmetic from Jusco this afternoon, but the car park was so parked! I couldn’t find a parking space and so I went to get my set of casmara skin care instead.
I wanted to try the latest foundation from Shiseido Maquillage and besides, there is a member promotion of getting some cash vouchers, so I didn’t want to miss it!!! But too bad, I really couldn’t find a space, so I can forget about the foundation for the time being. I wonder if I have time to shop at the airport later in Bangkok? If I do, I might want to try out the foundation from Chanel Mat Lumiere collection.
I read some nice reviews about the foundation from these 2 brand names, and I’m eager to try them out!
I only knew about Helena Rubinstein days ago when I was watching Queeny on TV. It’s one of the famous makeup line with Demi Moore as their spokeswoman.
I would love to try their mascara named Lash Queen because it has the leopard skin casing, which is so unique and the demonstration showed how great the effect is by just using the combination of voluminous and lengthening mascaras. It looks like putting on fake mascara if you know how to use them correctly.
But the bad news is, we can’t get the product here. Maybe I should ask my blog buddy to get them back from me from US huh?
I hardly put on makeup, that’s why I try my best not to buy a lot of cosmetics. However, there are some makeups which are hard to resist. These makeups are more like costume jewelry and you can hardly tell their main purpose until you open the casing. 3 of my favorite party accessory makeup palettes are:
Dior ‘DiorLight’ Holiday Bright Lip Gloss
Lancome Precious Carat (for lip)
Yves Saint Laurent Love Collection Lip Palette
