What’s In My Makeup Bag // February13
Ever since end of last year, i’ve been doing quite a bit of traveling here and there. And since i stay over at the Batcave quite often, i never really bothered to unpack my makeup bag. Even until now.
I like having my daily essentials in a little makeup bag so that i can always grab it and go if i ever need to. Anyway, i’ve decided to share what’s currently in my makeup bag just for fun.
Please note that these are just the items i bring with me when i’m traveling and/or staying some place else. This does not include my entire makeup stash that i have at home.

- Rachel K CC Cream (Neutral)
- Yves Saint Laurent TOUCHE ÉCLAT Radiant Touch
- MAC Select Moisturecover (NC20)
- Shu Uemura Face Powder
- Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler
- MAC Fafi Eyes 1 eyeshadow palette
- Majolica Majorca Majolook Illuminator eyeshadow palette (BR799)
- Heavy Rotation Gel Eyeliner
- Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeliner (Bourbon)
- Majolica Majorca Jeweling Pencil (71)
- Heavy Rotation Perfect Liquid Eyeliner
- Heroine Make Long and Curl Mascara
- Chanel Powder Blush (72 Rose Initiale)
- Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Volupté (Faubourg Peach)
- Topshop Lipstick (Pillow Talk)
- Peripera Tint Water (Pink Juice)
- Eye Talk Double Eyelid Glue
- Dolly Wink Eyelash Glue
So these are pretty much my makeup essentials. My favourite eyeshadow palettes and lip products changes from time to time but as for now, i use the Majolica Majorca Majolook Illuminator for daytime and MAC Fafi Eyes 1 for night.
And recently i’ve been experimenting with ombre lips by combining my Topshop Lipstick in Pillow Talk with my fairly new Peripera Tint Water in Pink Juice. Peripera is a Korean brand and it’s available at Watsons. I bought some of their lip products and i’m looking to do a review on it, but i’m not sure when because i have a lot of things piled up. However if you want to try their products out for yourself, you know where to find them! :)
CloseUp: September12
And we’re back with another makeup close up! So my last makeup close up was more than six months ago. I’m actually quite surprised myself for updating on my current favourite makeup look so soon. Pretty good effort, if i must say so myself (*ﾉωﾉ)
In my previous makeup close up, i mentioned that i was a bit obsessed with hot pink lipstick. Well the obsession lasted for a couple of months, but then i started getting breakouts around my lower cheek area so i stopped wearing them cause i didn’t want to attract too much attention to that area.
My current favourite look consists on long and light lashes, brown and black eyeshadow on the lids and light lips. For some reasons, i keep my blusher to a minimum so that’s why it doesn’t show in pictures.

CloseUp: May12
Yeap. It’s been a while, isn’t it?
My makeup mojo is kinda coming back so i figured why the hell not. The last time i posted a makeup close up was two years ago.
So my current favourite look consists of thick lashes, minimal eyeshadow and pink lipstick. I really like this look and i’ve been wearing this look since April. Obviously i’m still not bored of it yet (｡･ω･｡)

Dark and interesting colours. This is definitely something not to be missed. However i don’t think i’ll be getting anything from this collection, though i do think that some of the colours in this collection are gorgeous.
It’s already out in stores so go check them out cause there’s a lot more and they look so much prettier in real life.
Loot: NYX, Bobbi Brown and M.A.C
I think this post pretty much concludes the last of my makeup buys for the past couple of months. Not sure if i’ll be buying anymore any time soon but i will definitely let you guys know if i do.
So i can finally talk about my NYX products that i got from the forum cause i’ve been making rather use of them. I received them around July, so now you know how long it takes for me to write a review *shifty eyes*
Ahem. Anyway, here they are.
NYX Trio Eye Shadow
Nude | Taupe | Brown
I was very excited to get the Trio Eye Shadow in shades of brown because i recently have a thing for brown eyeshadows. However, i was quite disappointed with the Trio Eye Shadow for a couple of reasons.
Firstly, the actual colour is far off from what was shown on the NYX website. So far the only colour that i make most use of is Brown. As for the other two colours Nude and Taupe, i’ve only used them once or twice.
Either way, i should’ve known better that NYX is horrible for their swatches on their website so it was my mistake for not doing more research on it.
Secondly, i chose to buy the Trio Eye Shadow cause i wanted to depot the shadows and transfer them to my M.A.C palette. However this NYX palette packaging is different. From what i’ve googled, i think it’s a newer packaging compared to the older ones, so i don’t think i can depot them.
But nonetheless, i’ve been using the NYX shadows a lot recently so it shows that it serves me well. The colours come out rather nice too.
Besides that i also bought 2 brushes from NYX. Nothing much to shout about, but once again some how the brushes from US are always cheaper. I got them for around RM 20 each.
I found the slanting contour brush was extremely helpful when contouring my nose. I’m glad that i didn’t have to resort to buying an expensive slanting contour brush from Bobbi Brown.
And that’s all i got from NYX. Now it’s time for M.A.C!
I got to attend the annual Estee Lauder staff sale last month thanks to Jen. I can say that i’m very happy with this year’s purchase because i didn’t buy anything that wasn’t on my list and i can foresee that i will be making full use of everything i bought.
I can’t really recall the price for each of them, but i’m sure that the price for each of them didn’t exceed RM 100 except for the perfume.
DKNY Be Delicious set; RM 140
Three for RM 70*
Swatches; colours are more or less accurate
This particular trio t was my best find in the pile of lip products during the sale. The lip products were all packed and sealed in threes, and the one i found had the best combination of colours.
And the best part was that the packet had the lipgloss that i’ve been looking for – the Cremesheen Lipglass in Boy Bait!!
Best!

Bobbi Brown Long Wear Cream Shadow and Long Wear Gel Eyeliner; RM 70
Ash and Mahogany Ink
That’s all for now! Hope you enjoyed this post and i will be posting up a look i did using some of these products soon :)
