Hi guys,
If you have a oily skin, put your hands up :D
I've been searching for awhile to find a pressed powder,
which is able to control my shine.
There are many brands of pressed powder claim that,
it can control your shine, but never worked for me.
Until now, I'm proud to introduce you, "RIMMEL STAY MATTE"
Oh my gosh, this product is amazing even it has some cons. ;p
Nobody's perfect, right? Actually, there are cons more than pros,
But comparing with the pros, this powder is still amazing.
Shall we start with Pros or Cons?
Let's start with cons,
Look at the lid, it is lighly twist lid. I'm not sure if this what you call in English.
But yay, if you keep it in your purse, it might loose somehow. :(
I mean it looses easily, say you can just pull it apart to open the product.
I keep it at home because I work from home ^^ Lucky me!!!
This product doesn't have applicator or puff.
You can imagine how inconvenience it is, if you grab it on the go with you.
Last, The product itself is light coverage. if you have pores or blemishes etc.,
you will need some base like primer, BB cream or foundation.
Time for pros,
The product claims that "Up to 5 hours natural shine control",
Good news, Yes, it does. I have a super oily skin.
It became shine (My T-zone) just like after 20 mins that I finished applying makeup.
With this product, it keep me staying matte for like 2.30 hous-ish.
and other parts of my face for like 4 hours-ish. I just used my blotting sheet
with no need to reapply the powder. See, how amazing it is. and it is drug store brand,
means it is cheap ^^ yay yay
I use the shade 004 SANDSTORM which blends very well to my skin.
I believe I can go for one lighter shade, if I want to look lighter.
Winter is coming soon, I don't know if my skin will get lighter,
If so I might go back to store and grab the one shade lighter one.
Tips, I use it with some bases such as primer or BB cream
to make it become medium coverage.
Hope this is helpful for someone who is looking for shine control pressed powder.
Hi.....pretty girls,
Welcome to makeup world.
Once you start, you will never stop.
Personally, for me one of the hard parts of makeup is eyeshadow.
A lot of colors in the markets, but how to choose the right one.
Additionally, you probably need some skill to know how to mix
the colors to make they appear gorgeously on your eyes.
They are a lot of style of eye makeup, but first thing first,
Today I will focus on how to choose the colors.
If you have never applied eyeshadow before or you just a beginner,
I will suggest you to start off with brown tone.
The brown tone is natural tone, you will not mess up.
Na matter how newbie you are, it will just appears naturally on your eyes.
Once you are familiar with brown, you can go for pink tone,
then the more you are familiar, the darker tone you can get.
After these steps, you can go for sort of fancy colors.
I will assort briefly like below;
1. Brown tone
2. Pink tone
3. Gray tone
4. Black tone
5. Green or Blue tone
6. Purple tone
7. Pastel tone.
Hope you enjoy and have a useful tip.
If you have tried or started off differently and it also gives you a well done result,
please let me know. I would love to know others tips too.
Hi guys,
Today I'm gonna do a review of these lovely lip balm
" NYC Applelicious Glossy Lip Balm: 353 Pink Lady and 355 Applelicious Pink"
They have an apple scent like theirs name. Ahhhhh smell so good. I like it.
The texture of the lip is so smooth not too much greasy.
They aren't that long lasting. I mean if you just sip a water it is ok.
But once you have a meal or Japanese Ramen like me, It totally disappeared.
Personally It is acceptable, they are lip balms not the lip stain.
You just have to keep it in your bag if you go out to reapply on your lips..
They have various color of this line; NYC Applelicious Glossy Lip Balm,
but as I looked around, most of them were like in Pink tone.
You can check out at the store nearby your house.
Perhaps you see more color tone.
Here are how they looked when they were on my lips.
353 Pink Lady; This one kinda gave me sheer color or I just have a dark lips, I'm not sure.
If you need something that gives you natural look then you can go for it.
355 Applelicious Pink; I prefer this one than another one that I have because it give me more color to appear on my lips, giving me sweet also natural look. I think if you have a tan skin like mine you should give this color a try.
That's it, my review on NYC Applelicious Glossy Lip Balm: 353 Pink Lady and 355 Applelicious Pink, I hope it is helpful for you.
Summer is still around, don't forget to apply sunscreen. Take care.
