Makeup Collection

I was requested by Nat, my own personal fangirl. hahahaha ^.^ thanks!, to do a post on my makeup collection.

 Well, so I'm just going to tell you guys before hand that you aren't going to be surprised with my humble collection. >.<

Do you remember this picture from my previous post? So this is where I store my makeup, and I kind of rearranged my things after I took this picture. 

My first drawer contains all of my face things that I usually use on a daily basis, except my Givenchy sunscreen is not in the picture. Then I also have some misc. lip products in the back that I hardly ever use.
Next up, I have all my eyeliners, mascaras, and falsies. As of not, I only have MUFE's and Sephora's eyeliners, so I really want to try Urban Decay's, but I just can't bring myself to spend $17 on a liner again. I think that I am starting to like gel liners more than pencil just because of it's ease of application. 
*Update* I really don't like the Maybelline gel liner. I think that it is mainly because of the brush that it comes with SUCKS. The brush is not stiff enough and its hairs immediately splits upon application. HATE IT~

Most of my favorite or more expensive palettes I like to put in here. I used to be really strict on putting all my things according to its brand. But now i am not a stickler about that. So I have my two favorite Esprique Precious palettes, SUQQU, Sonia Rykiel, and Jill Stuart.

Then I just have my regular and "blah" eyeshadows. hahaha It's not like I don't like them but they are just OK eyeshadows that I usually don't use. Except for my Coffret Dor, Beautymaker, and Nars. I love those but I don't have that much room to put in my other drawer. hahaha



My blushes, lipsticks, and boxes all belong here. I am a LAZY person so right now, I really like to use my JS blush because then I don't have to take out my separate blush brush. hehehe
I like to have my favorite BB cream and primers placed here.
Paul & Joe~
More misc. Face items.
My tweezers, brush, hair fringe.
My Beauty Diary Masks~
My skincare/makeup remover corner~


Funny figurines from Taiwan's 7 eleven~ 


My HG Givenchy Sunscreen~ It has SPF 50 PA +++ which means that it has the highest SPF any sunscreen could achieve. When you first squeeze it out, it is a little baby pink and it immediately whitens. If you are looking for a sunscreen for the upcoming summer, make sure to check out this one. Since, it is an Asian exclusive item, let me know if you want it and I will probably be able to help you get it.
I decided to get a mascara after going for around 5 months without one. hehehe 

This particular mascara does a fantastic job on curling and lengthening the lashes but fails to volume. However, I still think that it is a great mascara and I might even think that it's better than the Covergirl Lash Blast.

Laura Mercier Goodies

Last week a package arrived on my doorstep~ ^.^
I've been waiting for this for the longest time ever. You know that feeling when you get really really excited and just can't help but keeping on looking out the window for the frickin UPS truck? Well, that's what I was like. However the dude didn't even come until 6pm which kept me waiting for like 2 hours. SCREW YOU~ hahaha No, I'm too nice to say that.


My new peeps. I keep on telling myself not to succumb to temptations from all you ladies' fabulous posts on your recent buys. But of course that's definitely NOT possible. I'm just going to let you know right now, my wallet hates you but I luv you! >.-



I picked up the Glided Garden Shimmer Bloc. I wanted to get this shimmer bloc for a whole year now. The funny this is that when I had a chance to get it at my local Sephora; I didn't. I kept on picking it up putting it into my basket and then returning. Finally, I decided to get it again and thankfully the official website still sold them.


The shimmer bloc is soo purtty. I like how the flowers don't have an overspray so after I use it, there won't be an immediate change to it's shape.


Now I'm going to tempt you to buy it :P

Anyways i just think that Laura Mercier has the best service ever~ I didn't even add any codes/or samples to my basket when I checked out online. And when I opened my package, I saw 3 extra items laying around. O.o At first glance, I was like "oh noooo, they messed up my order". hehehe I don't know why they did that, maybe it has to do with a promotion they are advertising right now.


Pressed powder in Real Sand which was exciting until I opened it:
Pet Peeve~ I really really really can't stand it when I opened a palette and the powder is everywhere. grrr


Tone perfecting creme, comes in a little cute jar



Mineral Foundation Primer ~

I got backups for my Givenchy Doctor White UV Protector. This is my HG item~ Truly whitens my skin. LOVES*
Another KATE gel liner. Remember how I really like my other one in BK-3, so I thought I should try the blue one.


This thing is awesome and not to mention quite pricey.


I like it when my hair is kinda wavy. Too bad it's not permanent.


Chic Choc! I was reading my magazines and flipped through this. I remember Fuz saying that Chic Choc was only available in Taiwan now. ummmmm the brand doesn't look amazing but that won't stop me from trying their items someday.
I really want to try the Garnier Aqua Defense but it's only available in Asian countries. I think that all cosmetics should be exactly the same and sold everywhere.
