Concealer that Conceal Everything !

One after another. After getting my face primer, I'm thinking of having a good concealer to be combine with my Urban Decay Naked Skin Foundation.

So here's the lists of concealer in my option:-

1) 24/7 Concealer Pencil from Urban Decay. Urban Decay product is my first choice since I am already using few of their product and they went well with my skin type. But of course I will not narrow down my choice to only one product.All product company will put and advice on their product description like " use our __ with our __ together for a better effect" . It is their marketing strategy for us to buy more from them ~ Carefull there, be smart and wise because sometimes product company advice is usefull depending on what product we are using with different skin type condition. Still, do not afraid to try something new. Life is full of adventure so does make up !

Product Description - $19
Hide dark circles and blemishes with our creamy formula that dries matte and stays put. Because it's a pencil, it's easy to apply with precision. A concealer in pencil form equals precise application, and less mess-no brush, no dipping your finger into a pot, or squeezing a dollop onto a sponge. Dot on tiny blemishes, or shade in large problem areas (like redness around the nose and chin). The creamy formula blends easily, then dries down to a smudge-free matte finish.

When your 24/7 Concealer Pencils start to get dull, use the big barrel of our Grindhouse Double Barrel Sharpener to grind them back to a perfect point.

Great Year of 2014

Tahun 2014 bakal berakhir dalam beberapa hari lagi. Tahun 2014 antara tahun yang memberikan perubahan dalam kehidupan harian. Bermula dengan perubahan status, perhubungan keluarga dan juga perubahan dari segi kerjaya.

Pada waktu ini pada tahun lepas I berada di Guangzhou, China. First time pergi ke sana. Di Guangzhou tidak ada salji cuma bercuaca sejuk bertambah sejuk bila hari hujan. Hari yang paling sejuk masa disana suhu dalam 8'C . Agak menggigil juga lah kan.


Dalam bulan May 2014 Hubby and I pergi ke Krabi, Thailand. Early first anniversary celebration. First time pergi bercuti berdua. Dan first time juga ke Krabi. Disana kami tinggal di Sunda Beach Resort untuk 4 hari 3 malam. Hotelnya agak murah dan sangat exclusive. Dari hotel ke kawasan pantai kira-kira dalam 500 meter saja. Kami sewa motor skuter sepanjang berada disana untuk senang ke sana ke mari. Sewa motor pun murah dalam 200-300 Baht. Sepanjang berada di Krabi aktiviti kami of course lah snorkling, island tour, makan, tido dan melencong :D. Memang tidak dinafikan memang pulau-pulau disana sangat cantik seperti Phi Phi Island, dan beberapa pulau lain yang dah lupa nama. 4 hari 3 malam memang tidak cukup untuk pergi ke semua tempat. Kami plan nak pergi lagi ke Krabi bila ada peluang nanti.


Oh ya sebelum ke Krabi, kami ada pergi ke Langkawi pada bulan February. Satu family pergi, cousin I si Hasni pun pergi.

Lepas balik dari Krabi, I dan Hubby dan juga mama kami bertiga ke Bandung. 5 hari 4 malam rasanya. Agak lama juga. Bandung pun ok agak menarik. Tapi hari last kat Bandung I kena food poisioning. Menakutkan sebelum ni tak pernah-pernah kena food poisioning. Dari tengah malam sehari sebelum flight balik ke KL dah start muntah-muntah semua. Sampai masa nak naik flight balik ke KL dah tak larat nak jalan. Makan apa pun tak boleh masuk, asyik muntah. Minum air mineral pun muntah. Kami kira-kira kena food poisoning sebab makan McD kat sana. I order McD delivery ke hotel sebab malas nak keluar malam tu. Yang bestnya I yang paling teruk kena. Memang sangat phobia sampai sekarang pun dah tak nak makan McD. Ada juga cuba makan McD kat KL lepas 2-3 bulan tapi perut masih tak boleh terima lagi. So sampai sekaranglah I tak makan McD.

Selepas Bandung trip ada juga trip-trip macam weekend getaway yang I dan Hubby pergi. Satu family pun ada. Short trip ke Langkawi, Penang, PD, Melaka, Cameron Highland,Pulau Perhentian dan beberapa tempat lagi yang I sendiri pun dah lupa.

Last trip ke luar negara I dan mama ke Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Kali ni kali pergi berdua je. Hubby tak ikut. Trip 4 hari 3 malam. Masa kat sana tiap-tiap hari makan Vietnamese Beef Noodle Soup. Sedap !!! Mesti cuba kalau ke Saigon. Restoran makanan halal disekitar Benh Thant market. Jumpa market tu mesti jumpa Halal Restorant. Kalau keluar dari area Benh Thant market agak susah nak cari halal restorant.



Kesimpulannya tahun 2014 ni memang tahun yang banyak berjalan berbanding dengan tahun-tahun sebelumnya.

OK next year target Boracay !  I ako ay darating Boracay ! ( google translate je pun haha :P)

Alhamdulillah untuk tahun 2014. Semoga tahun 2015 akan lebih baik dari tahun ini dengan semua niat-niat yang baik Lillahi Ta'ala untuk kebaikan dan kebahagian I, Hubby, Family dan semua rakan kenalan.

5 Best Face Primer

Tidak semua orang mengenakan Face Pimer terlebih dahulu sebelum mengenakan make-up. I salah seorang yang dinyatakan. Mulanya fikir Face Primer tidaklah penting mana. I dapat tahu yang salah satu fungsi Face Primer yang penting ialah ia dapat menghalang make-up dari memasuki kulit muka kita dengan menyapu Face Primer terlebih dahulu sebelum memakai apa-apa barangan make-up. Face Primer juga berfungsi sebagai bahan yang menjadikan kulit kita licin dan sekata. Apabila kulit licin dan sekata, barulah make up yang digunakan nampak cantik. Kalau tidak, pakai make-up mahal mana pun bila berpeluh nampak bertompok-tompok. Ataupun tidak sampai separuh hari make-up nampak mengalahkan orang yang bekerja dibawah terik matahari. Jadi I buat sedikit research mengenai Face Primer yang bagus untuk kita cuba. Senarai ini adalah berdasarkan personal review I sendiri. Baca dan pilih okay ~

1) Benefit 
Produk Benefit sememangnya telah dipercayai turun temurun ! OK, agak over disitu :P
I sendiri ada beberapa produk Benefit yang I telah cuba sendiri. Diperkenalkan kepada Benefit oleh my make-up geek friend yang agak obsess dengan barangan make up. Thanks to her I jumpa produk yang best ni. Benefit ada dua Face Primer yang bagus, Dr Feel Good dan POREfessional. Bagi I dua-dua produk ni sesuai untuk semua jenis kulit. Oily skin to normal skin. I sendiri dah cuba POREfessional ni mmg dapat make up yang perfect dan stay longer. POREfessional ni fungsinya bukanlah macam face primer yang lain, berbeza sedikit. POREfessional ni focus untuk pore dibahagian T-Zone. Jadi cara untuk apply pun cuma perlu apply dibahagian T-Zone sahaja. I sendiri pakai combination of POREfessional dan HD Face Primer No 6 dari Make Up Forever. Manakala Dr Feel Good pula functionnya untuk mengawal face oil. Boleh diapply diseluruh bahagian muka sebelum letak any foundation. Ataupun di pertengahan hari bila muka terasa oily dan boleh apply additional on top of make up.  Mesti cuba OK ! :)

Product Detail - Dr Feel Good
Mattify shine with our invisible, weightless balm that leaves skin feeling silky-soft. Fabulous for mid-day touch-ups... this makeup artist fave can be worn alone, under or on top of makeup. Contains Vitamins A, C & E to help smooth away the appearance of fine lines.

Product Detail - POREfessional 
Quickly minimize the appearance of pores & fine lines for smoother-than-smooth skin! Apply this silky, lightweight balm alone, under or over makeup. Translucent, oil-free formula complements all skintones and helps makeup stay put. Contains a Vitamin E derivative, known to protect skin from free radicals.

2) Make Up Forever
Face Primer dari Make Up Forever ni agak bagus dan harga pun OK. Apply saja Face Primer ni sebelum make-up dan tadaa~ Macam professional make-up person. Yang specialnya dengan Face Primer dari Make Up Forever ni, ada beberapa pilihan mengikut skin color dan juga skin condition. I have no 6 for myself ! Perfect !

Product Detail - HD Mircoperfecting Primer
A lightweight, oil-free complexion corrector that enhances the skin's texture and primes the skin for makeup application. HD Microperfecting Primer deeply nourishes, moisturizes, and softens the skin, creating a glowing effect. Creates a protective layer on the skin allowing foundation to glide on easily and last longer.

3) M.A.C
Product Detail - Prep + Prime
An ultra-fluid lotion formulated with special effect silicones. Calms and soothes the skin,blots away excess oil, and evens out skin redness. Improves the laydown and application of foundation or powder.

4) Smashbox

Product Detail - Smashbox Photo Finish 

The silky blend of vitamins and antioxidants smooths and perfects skin, while the unique formula supports natural collagen and fills in fine lines and pores for a flawless finish.

5) Sephora


Barangan make-up brand Sephora menawarkan harga yang lebih menarik berbanding jenama-jenama lain. Memanglah kalau dibandingkan tidak akan sama. Tapi, masih OK dan cukup bagus dari tiada langsung. Kan?

Product Detail - Smoothing Primer

A perfect complexion always starts with smoothing primer.
This primer is the first essential step to flawless, long-wearing make-up. It perfects the complexion, makes foundation easier to apply and sets make-up. Its transparent gel texture smoothes the skin's texture and leaves it feeling exceptionally soft. Its matte finish prolongs make-up wear.
It features a neutral shade that is completely translucent and suitable for all skin tones, from very light to very dark.

Jadi, dimana nak dapatkan semua Face Primer tu ? Sephora store of course ! Tapi MAC tiada di Sephora store, MAC kena pergi store MAC sendiri. KLCC lah senang. Sephora ada, MAC ada Bobbi Brown pun ada. Tapi Bobbi Brown tiada dalam list kan ? :P


Bercakap mengenai Sephora, tadi lepas dinner makan ice cream sambil-sambil tunggu movie pukul 10. Then datanglah seorang perempuan kat meja bla bla bla we are doing charity for bla bla bla if you could donate RM bla bla bla. Hubby pula kalau memang ringan tangan kalau orang minta donation. So hubby pun bagilah. Bila dah bagi donation orang tu bagi satu kad suruh tulis wish dan dia cakap akan gantung wish tu. So hubby suruh I yang tulis memandangkan tulisan I lagi kemas katanya. Alasan je tu. So here's my wish that I wrote on that card






" I want RM1000 cash for my Sephora shopping"






Simple and straight to the point. Hubby senyum-senyum je baca. Easy to grant kan En Hubby ? YES ? NO ?

Let's talk about lipstick

I used to publish my post and after a while I make it private for some reason. Ok let it pass. Lets talk about lipstick !

Ever since a good friend of mine introduce me to Sephora, I am CRAZY about her. When I say crazy I mean CRAZYYYYYY ! I have just recieved my Sephora Black Card member post to my residence address. Thats how fanatic I am with Sephora. From White Card Member (normal member) to Black Card Member. I should keep all the receipts so that I can keep track how much I have spend on her ! 

I can spend hours alone in Sephora being possessed by the make stuff and all. Let's first entri be about lipstick based on my ranking.

No 1 - Urban Decay Revolution Lipstick

No 2 - Bobbi Brown 

No 3 - MAC 

OK Now lets combine lipstick with these for a better colour and more moisture 

Tips : Avoid to choose plum colour of lipstick. Plum colour lipstick will make you look older. While nude colour lipstick will give you a pale look but sexy ! Pinky colour lipstick look younger and fresh ~
