Tom Ford Lip Color in 14 Sable Smoke

Awalnya aku ga bakalan tertarik ma brand ini, karena packagingnya!
Yep, packagingnya imho too mature, alias kayak emak-emak wkwkwk...
maap yah yg demen ma pekejing TF lip color ini
Lihat saja... Black square tube with gold... eeek! Σ(▼□▼メ)

Tapiiiii.... setelah mencoba sendiri, persepsiku berubah 200%!
I LOVE this lip color packaging!
Now I can feel the luxury of the products that makes you love the packaging as well! (lol)
Ga ada hubungannya yah? *blushy*
Tapi beneran lhooo.... (/^▽^)/


Tom Ford Lip Color 14 Sable Smoke ini salah satu nude lipstick favoritku setelah Burberry Lip Velvet Pink Apricot & Peony Rose.
Maaf yah logonya udah hilang sebelum sempat difoto-foto hahah....


Swatched on hand :
Sable Smoke warnanya brownie beige with hint of pink.
Di tube warnanya bener-bener tidak menarik sama sekali, warna yang ga bakalan aku lirik di counter, lol.
Tapi begitu diswatch, cakep euy! Perfect nude for me


Swatched on lips :
Awalnya aku pikir bakal pucet jelek kayak orang sakit, tapi ternyata gak terlalu pucat kan? :D

Tekstur TF Sable Smoke ini creamy, sheer at first swatch but buildable.
Dan terutama pigmentasinya oke banget .
Aku selalu pakai lip liner warna nude dulu sebelum apply Sable Smoke untuk bikin nude yg sempurna karena garis bibirku mayan noticeable.

Aku beli Tom Ford Lip Color 14 Sable Smoke ini di Tangs Singapore, harganya SGD 70.
Is it A Must have nude lippie? Proudly will aswer: YES! (≧▽≦)

FOTD: Giorgio Armani Designer Lift Foundation

Penampakan pertama pakai Giorgio Armani Designer Lift Foundation in 5 :D


A smoothing and firming fluid foundation with SPF 20. Claims: Restores up to 10 years of luminosity, firms lines up to 87%, and firms skin by 73%. For 12 hours of lifting action.
The Invisible Face Lift
The Armani unique Micro-fil™ technology
Kesan pertama pakai Giorgio Armani Designer Lift (GADL) ini, aroma alkoholnya nyengat banget...(*´Д`*)
Giorgio Armani Maestro Foundation yang sebelumnya menurutku udah strong aroma alkoholnya aja kalah dibandingin GADL ini.

Tapi herannya kok GADL klaimnya untuk kulit kering? (^^ ' apa gak makin bikin kering ya...
Syukurlah kulitku yg normal-combi cenderung kering gak masalah pakai GADL.
Swatches:
Aku beli GADL #5 dari baca2 review. Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk (GALS) pakai #5 juga. 
Tapi beberapa bilang shade GADL cenderung lebih gelap daripada shade GALS.
Dan ternyata memang benar ^^; tapi untungnya #5 gak kegelapan juga di aku.
Mungkin karena coveragenya medium buildable jadi blending well di kulit.

Perbandingan antara GADL #5 & GALS #5
GADL #5 tampak lebih yellowish beige & gelap daripada GALS #5.
GALS #5 keliatan lebih pucat yah... tapi lebih ngeblend warnanya daripada GADL #5.
GALS #5juga sebenernya di kulitku tone nya kurang kuning.
Teksturnya GADL juga lebih pekat sedikit daripada GALS yang runny.

Perbandingan antara beberapa shade foundation GA yang aku punya.
Dari kiri ke kanan: GADL #5 - GALS #4.75 - GALS #5 - GALS #6
GADL #5 jadi keliatan paling oren dari semua.
GALS #4.75 salah beli gara2 terlalu percaya ma gambar di websitenya :sweat:
Ternyata aku baru tahu gambar di webnya memang menipu, banyak yg salah ambil shade gara2 terlalu percaya ma image disana wkwkwk... LOL!
Kalo dijajar GALS #5 jadi tampak yellow tone nya disebelah #4.75
Oh my... kenapa sih dulu bisa beli si #4.75 ini ^^;; pink undertone yang sama skali gak cucok di kulitku yg yellowishnya rada kenceng... heran deh haha!


Penampakan di muka... :D
Aku gak tau efek yg diklaim GA, firming and smooth? 
Sepertinya kok ga jauh beda ya ma GALS hihi...
Tapi GADL memang lebih unggul di coverage daripada GALS

Majolica Majorca Lash Enamel Glamour Volume On Mascara

The famous Majolica Majorca Lash Enamel Glamour Volume On Mascara, yay!
Review-nya banyak banget bisa ditemuin di internet.
Salah satu merek favorit dari produk drugstore di Jepang.


Ini penampakannya 1 layer applied. Sudah cukup kelihatan tebal yah...
Btw aku masih ga pedean pake mascara terlalu tebal lebih dari sekali pulas,
Selain terlalu kelihatan 'dandan' bersihinnya juga setengah mati wkwkwk...

Ini adalah swatch yang aku buat sebelumnya, Majolica Majorca Lash Expander Frame Plus Mascara.
Tapi kok dilihat2 gak ada bedanya yah haha...
Dua2nya bikin efek lengthening.
(kiri: bare lashes, kanan: MM Lash Expander)
Harga retailnya di Jepang ¥1,200 both Lash Enamel Glamour Volume On & Lash Expander Frame Plus.
Mascara  Majolica Majorca ini adalah salah satu HG brandku selain Fairydrops.
Tapi sepertinya rada susah ya cari Fairydrops, dan lebih mahal sedikit dari MM mascara (beda sekitar ¥300-an)

Both Rating♥ ♥ ♥

FOTD : YSL Le Teint Touche Eclat Foundation, Review & Swatches

Haloo....
Hasil belanja foundationku yang terakhir YSL Le Teint Touche Eclat Foundation in BD40
Penampakannya di muka:
Glowy nya dapet yah...
Tapi jujur aku lebih suka IRL glowy-nya si Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk daripada YSL Touche Eclat.
Or mungkin juga gara2 salah shade kali yah? hihi...
Aku sudah review juga si GA Luminous Silk Foundation disini :D
Sori eyeshadow ku boring qeqeq...
Semua warnanya coklat, beige, dan warna2 earth tone lainnya...
Belom pede pake eyeshadow warna warni or smooky looks.
Aku pake lipstick Chanel allure velvet 37 L'Exuberante,
Maksud hati mo bikin gradient lips tp malah gatot gara2 lip glossnya...
Karena ga punya clear lip gloss akhirnya pake lipbalm nya biotherm hahaha
Nyesel kenapa gak beli top coat glossnya Anna Sui skalian yah waktu ada sale 

Perbandingan Shade YSL Touche Eclat BD40 ini dengan shade foundation2 lain yang aku punya.
Kesimpulan:
YSL Touche Eclat BD40 terlalu terang dan kurang kuning (banget).
BD singkatan dari Beige Dore, yang seharusnya Dore itu berarti golden,
ini lha kok pucet greyish gene sih? :sweat:
Kesalahan ada di mata saya ato layar komputer anda.... lolol.
Setelah aku swatch2 lagi di konternya YSL, ternyata shade B30 lebih masuk ke skintone ku ihik... sedih, dan sudah terlambat
Ya sutralah, aku pake tifis2 aja dan setting pake powder gelap biar gak terlalu keliatan pektay.
Paling match GA Maestro 4.5 dan Laura Mercier Silk Creme Bamboo Beige.
Kuning dan brightness-nya pas.
Kalo GA Luminous Silk 5 terlalu beige (netral), kurang kuning dikit jadi rada greyish, tapi untungnya sheer jadi ga begitu keliatan.
MAC Studio Fix Foundation NC30 terlalu orange.
Paling parah si DiorSkin Nude 030, cepet banget oksidasinya, jadi gelap lebih dari 2 tingkat gitu...

FOTD : Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation

My first FOTD on this blog.
Not today's actually, but this is the first time I have courage to post my full face look in my own blog haha...
Les Merveilleuses Ladurée Face Color Rose looks super pretty isn't? Couldn't help my self aww~
(click for larger pics) 
 Ingredients :
- Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation in shade 5 (it's my HG foundie right now!)
- Paul & Joe Undereye Concealer in 01
- Laura Mercier Setting Loose Powder
- Ladurée Face Color Rose blush in 01
- Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette
- Makeup For Ever Aqua Eyes Pencil Liner in 2L
- Lavshuca Eyebrow Pencil in BR-1
- Givenchy Phenomen' Eyes mascara
- Anna Sui Lip Balm
- Anna Sui Lip Concealer in 701
- Anna Sui Lip Crayon in 600

Tools :
- MAC Duo Fibre Brush 187
- Sigma Powder Brush F30
- Jill Stuart Eyelash Curler
I forgot to apply the important thing, the Primer!
Thank God, it didn't mess my makeups anyway haha...
Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation in shade 5 actually isn't my exactly color.
It is a neutral shade which is too beige and not yellow enough for my asian yellowish skin.
I'm around nc25-30 in MAC by the way.
I'm using Anna Sui Lip Color (left) & Lip Crayon (right), but I think it's kinda bit failed to make nude looks XD
 
I'm using Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette: Chopper all over lids & Snakebite for creases.
And Givenchy Phenomen' Eyes mascara.
It's quite unique mascara brush, easy to apply and of course, it's so cute~!
I hope I can write another FOTDs, and have more skills in makeup lol!
Please don't be bored to read my blog.
Thanks for stop by~~ ♥ 
xoxo

My Stash : Nude Nail Polishes Collection

Ini adalah beberapa koleksi nude nail polishku :D
I really love Nude nail polishes , they are daily wearable, neutral with any colors of clothes i wore.
From left : Butter London Yummy Mummy, OPI Tickle My France-y, OPI Barefood in Barcelona, Essie Tea & Crumpets





Butter London Yummy Mummy

Rating♥ ♥ ♥
Butter London Yummy Mummy is my most favorit!
Dari keempatnya aku paling suka dgn tekstur si Yummy Mummy.
Warnanya paling greyish, dengan sedikit shimmer yang baru keliatan kalo dilihat benar2.
Tapi warnanya agak sheer, harus apply minimal 2 layer untuk hasil yang lebih opaque dan bagus.

OPI Tickle My France-y
Rating♥ ♥ ♥
OPI Tickle My France-y adalah salah satu favoritku juga ^^
Warna dominan cool toned pink.
Cukup netral di semua jenis skin undertone baik yang cool atau warm.

OPI Barefood in Barcelona
Rating♥ ♥ ♥
OPI Barefood in Barcelona sama seperti Tickle My France-y, love it!
Warm toned pink bown. 
Mungkin bakal kurang nude kalo dipake di cool undertone skin.
Tapi di kulitku cakep banget jadinya... o(≧▽≦)o♪

Essie Tea & Crumpets
Rating♥ ♥ ♥ 
Essie Tea & Crumpets is the most dissapointing on me.
Aku ga begitu suka frosty finishnya. 
Teksturnya juga cair banget tapi kok warnanya malah jadi kelihatan ga gampang rata begitu yak? 
Mungkin karena warnanya metalic gini jadi kalo gak rata kilaunya kelihatan banget.

Comparisson :
Kalo dibandingin dengan yang lain Yummy Mummy jelek banget yah wkwkwk....
Tapi kalo dipake sendiri baru cakep banget.
Banyak temen2ku yang lihat swatches ini vote si Barefood in Barcelona (*^3^ ) yay~

OPI Nail Polish Remover

OPI Nail Polish Remover is my favorite remover!
It's a bit pricey though, but I do not use them very often so that's not a big deal I think :D
The pink/red one is very gentle for dry & sensitive nails.
And of course it is acetone-free!
I don't know what about the purple one, it's acetone-free too?

The purple one claims removing glittery nail polishes faster and easier.
But I find it not that really did the job great on glittery nail polishes.
It still needs some rubs to remove all the glitters off from your nails.
But it still moisturizing enough over my nails and skin compared to other cheaper brands I've used.
I didn't say both are don't dry my skin at all but it helps not to over dry like the use of acetone in mostly other nail polish remover products on the market.

Yes, you can use the purple one to remove Gel Nail Polish too.
Aku belum pernah coba pakai Gel Nail Polish, tapi review dari beberapa teman dan hasil baca-baca di beberapa beauty blogger sepertinya Gel Nail Polish ini bakal too harsh buat kukuku yg tipis, kering dan sensitif ini.
Bersihinnya juga ribet, mesti dibungkus pakai aluminium foil segala, dan tentu saja makan banyak waktu.
Kalo aku punya banyak waktu buat nganggur dan nyalon, maybe it's okay haha...
Hmm.... back to conventional nail polishes they are still pretty though.

Lho kok jadi bahasa? X-D maksudnya mo bikin review in english haha...
