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.

Haulage



Just to let you know, I usually only have blog posts if I hauled some makeup~ This time my bro got me something from Adam Beauty. ^.^ It's going to be my early B-day present. Not that my b-day is anytime soon, but I just really wanted this before it sold out. :P 

Can you guess what I got????

*drum roll plz*











Tada~ The Visee Mercury Duo in A-6. 


My first Visee palette so I hope it doesn't disappoint.
I think that the main reason I really wanted to get this was because it came with a cream eye shadow base. I really really love those bases.

Mwa~ Check out all these pics of my new palette. hahaha

Come'on I know that you know you want to get one.


It's LE........




Then I got a Maybelline gel liner in Eggplant. It looks pretty in the jar and I will swatching it on my next post.


Yesterday I went on a shopping trip with my friend and we went to Sephora. I have been eye-ing both the MUFE high definition primer and the Bare Escentuals Eyelid Primer for the longest time ever. I finally decided that it was time to own them. hahaha

MUFE High Definition Primer: 5 Blue (Doesn't look blue at all. right?)
I wanted to either get this primer in purple or blue since the color purple is to counteract the yellow undertone and the blue to help reduce slight redness, freckles, and spots. I figured that my freckles issue was more important then my yellow undertone. Note that the blue primer does not mask the freckles. hahaha wouldn't that be great, all it does it lighten up your complexion. 
Bare Escentuals Eyelid Primer
Can you believe that I have NEVER had a eyelid primer until now? How sadd...... hehehe
I immediately opened this up and used this today. The packaging is definitely not as cute as Urban Decay's Primer Potion. However, I like how I am able to twist out the primer while not getting my applicator dirty. For me, to test out how well this primer works is by putting on my Nars Cream Eyeshadow, Corfu. Let me tell you, without primer Corfu creases on me like HELL~ Seriously, 5 minutes later, I got bits and pieces of it suck in my crease and it doesn't look attractive AT ALL. However today, I put it on with the primer and did not crease at all for the whole day. Truly Amazing~

I went to L'Occitane and didn't expect to get anything. However I found this hand cream which is the Cherry Blossom scent and I fell in love. hahaha
