Make Up For Ever Aqua Cream in 14 Satin Brown

Ini kali pertama aku beli produk eyeshadow Make Up For Ever.
Gara-gara lihat SA-nya waktu itu pake cakep bener akhirnya ikutan beli Aqua Cream in 14 Satin Brown hahaha.... (*^ワ^*)


It is a lovely shimmery warm brown color.

According to the Sephora's,
It's an ultra-pigmented, long-lasting waterproof cream.
Aqua Cream combines the highest-quality pigments with mother of pearl particles to give immediate rich color payoff with a luminous finish in just one application. It's long-lasting formulation will not crease or smudge under the most extreme conditions and its creamy and elastic texture allows for easy blending.

The fact we need to know about MUFE Aqua Eyes:
Shades #5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 are formulated for the Lips & Cheeks.
Shades #1, 2, 3, 4, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 20, 21, and 22 are formulated for the Eyes & Cheeks.

I never try it on my cheek anyway :D
MUFE Agua Eyes really really waterproof and smudge-proof.
I'm so excited whenI swatched them at the MUFE's counter, I wiped with a wet tissue and it's still stayed on my skin without any smudge at all!

Imho Aqua Eyes just not for me though honestly I really love its colors and textures.
Because I'm a newbie cosme junkie wannabe, I can't never apply this cream shadow properly.
My eyes look so awfully messy when I put this shadow on.... ughh! p(´⌒`q)
Maybe it's because this shadow drying so quickly, and of course I'm a clumsy too. 
My hand always shaking when I using any eye make up products, especially liquid eyeliners ...lol.
I'm trying to be a better newbie, gals.
please teach me! m(_ _)m

bareMinerals Brushes

♥ ◦° Full Flawless Face Brush °◦ ♥
A plush, full-tapered brush to deliver the ultimate complexion luxury.
If you prefer more coverage, this versatile brush works great with bareMinerals SPF 15 Foundation, All-Over Face Color, Blush and Mineral Veil. 
Get medium-to-full coverage and a broad range of easy, expert-looking applications for a natural, seamless look.
This brush is made of Goat Hair



♥ ◦° Flawless Face Brush °◦ ♥
The lighter multi-purpose brush for the multi-taskers that we are. 
With its soft-tapered, semi-round bristles, this versatile brush works great with bareMinerals SPF 15 Foundation, All-Over Face Color, Blush and Mineral Veil. 
Get light-to-medium coverage and a broad range of easy, expert-looking applications.
With a short handle and its bristles made of ultra soft goat hair.


♥ ◦° Comparison between Full Flawless & Flawless Face Brush °◦ ♥

Full Flawless Face Brush jauh lebih round & fluffy dibandingkan dengan Flawless Face Brush yang tampak gepeng :D
Buat apply foundationnya pun seperti namanya, Full Flawless Face Brush lebih memberikan hasil yang mulus, biarpun pake powdernya cuman sedikit.
Sedangkan Flawless Face Brush aku pake untuk apply Warmth All-Over Face Color atau blusher yang lainnya.


♥ ◦° Maximum Coverage Concealer Brush °◦ ♥
The smooth, Taklon synthetic bristles of this concealer brush allows full, concentrated coverage that blends into skin flawlessly for broken capillaries, scars, blemishes, conceal and conquer any imperfection. 
That's because the firm, medium-sized brush head holds more SPF 20 Concealer. 
Use a patting technique to cover imperfections before or after applying your foundation, and you'll get maximum coverage that blends completely and doesn't leave a line.

Taklon is a smooth, soft, and somewhat fragile polyester derivative devoid of any protein component or allergen elements and is therefore used in the cosmetic industries as a "green", "vegan", "allergy free" or synthetic alternative to animal hair brushes. (wikipedia said :D )

 
Aku pake Max Coverage Concealer Brush ini untuk apply Well-Rested SPF 20 Eye Brightener.
Kadang-kadang juga untuk apply foundie di bagian yang terdapat dark spot bekas jerawat ato komedo.
Dan memang benar-benar cover!

By the way, entah kenapa kalo kupake apply foundie as concealer di eye area selalu cakey  & sink into lines....
Gara-gara eye cream yang kupake terlalu rich ato emang bareMinerals foundation bikin cakey and creasing di eye area?
Tapi herannya kalo pake Well-Rested lebih smooth dan gampang rata hasilnya.



♥ ◦° Flawless Radiance Brush °◦ ♥
A lush large long-layered brush specially designed for bareMinerals Radiance All-Over Face Colors.
The soft, all-natural hairs on the Bare Escentuals Flawless Radiance Brush buff an incredibly sheer layer of color that infuses radiant light into your skin for a soft, glowing, flawless finish.
Brush is made of Goat Hair.
bareMinerals Flawless Radiance Brush ini kubeli di counter waktu ke HK awal tahun 2012 kemarin.
Awalnya lihat nih brush berasa aneh banget karena bulunya panjang wondering dipakenya gimana yah... haha
Ternyata brush ini juga oke banget aku pake buat apply Mineral Veil.

bareMinerals Customizeable 8-piece Get Started Kit

Akhir tahun 2011 kemarin aku order bareMinerals 9-piece Get Started Kit dengan shade Light, melalui salah satu seller di Market Plaza-nya forum Femaledaily.
I'm so excited! ♥♥

Isinya adalah :

- Travel Size Original SPF15 Foundation (Light & Golden Medium)
- Travel Size Original Mineral Veil
- Travel SizeWarmth All-Over Face Color
- Full Flawless Face Brush
- Flawless Application Face Brush
- Maximum Coverage Concealer Brush
- Get Started DVD
- Exclusive bonus : Well-Cared For Brush Conditioning Shampoo

Maap yah isinya udah amburadul, karena ga nahan nepsong pengen cepet-cepet pake wkwkwkwk....
Jadinya ga sempat difoto-foto dulu.
Anyway, karena si nyokap demen banget ma powder & full flawless face brush-nya aku kasi aja deh buat dia hiks...
Sekalian alesan pengen coba beli lagi Matte SPF15 Foundation-nya hihi.

Ini dia penampakan Customizeable 8-piece Get Started Kit.

Bedanya dengan Bare Minerals 9-piece Get Started Kit adalah di paket cutomizable ini kita tidak mendapatkan 2 buah Travel Size Original Foundation (2g), akan tetapi sebagai gantinya kita bisa memilih 1 buah Full Size Foundation yang Original atau Matte (6g), dengan harga untuk Matte lebih mahal $2.


Perbedaan Original dan Matte.
Pada Komposisi Original mengandung Bismuth Oxychloride, sedangkan yang Matte tidak.
Bismuth Oxychloride yang mana diketahui sebagai penyebab timbulnya iritasi, reaksi alergi atau jerawat pada kulit beberapa orang. 


Isinya adalah :
- Full Size SPF15 Foundation (shade customizable in Original or Matte)
- Travel Size Original Mineral Veil
- Travel SizeWarmth All-Over Face Color
- Full Flawless Face Brush
- Flawless Application Face Brush
- Maximum Coverage Concealer Brush
- Get Started DVD
- Sephora Exclusive bonus : Travel Size Prime Time Foundation Primer


Full Size Matte SPF15 Foundation in Light.


Kali ini aku pilih shade Light, imho lebih pas buatku nc25-30.
Karena setelah mencoba Golden Medium mukaku jadi agak kucel, jadinya kupake kalo lagi sering berpanas-panas ria, atau buat shading aja.


The Brushes.
Sama seperti paket sebelumnya, brush yang didapatkan adalah Full Flawless Face Brush, Flawless Application Face Brush, dan Maximum Coverage Concealer Brush.


Travel Size Prime Time Foundation Primer.
Bedanya lagi Customizable ini dengan paket Bare Minerals-ku sebelumnya adalah di paket ini mendapatkan Travel Size Prime Time Foundation Primer.
Sedangkan di paket sebelumnya mendapatkan Well-Cared For Brush Conditioning Shampoo.
Shampoo buat brush ini ga begitu penting menurutku karena bisa direplace menggunakan shampoo bayi yang jauh lebih murah dan mudah didapatkan disini :D
Tapi kalo punya budget lebih boleh juga buat Well-Cared For Brush Conditioning Shampoo ini.
 

Travel Size Original Mineral Veil.
Mineral Veil yang original ini transparant dan memberi kesan glowy pada kulit.
Diaplikasikan setelah memakai foundation.


Travel SizeWarmth All-Over Face Color.
Berfungsi sebagai bronzer. Digunakan sebagai blusher ternyata oke juga.
Tapi cukup pakai sedikitttt saja, kalau kebanyakan apply muka bisa jadi kayak abis ditabokin haha...
Jika diperhatikan ada sedikit shimmer yah.


Valent, nickname seller tempatku beli Bare Minerals di forum Femaledaily ini baik sekali... 
Dia kasi sample Purifying Facial Cleanser yang udah kupengenin coba dari dulu.

I love all bareEscentuals products!
