Review : Nars Orgasm Blusher


After reading numerous reviews from so many beauty blogs that this is a must have item, I bought this during my crazy shopping in my Bangkok's trip last year from Siam Paragon at a very good bargain! It was sold as a promotion pack, 2 blusher (Orgasm & Super Orgasm for RM170, normal price RM115 for each). And I remember seeing in Bangkok's airport duty free shop for RM99.



I don't really like the packaging , especially the outer layer.. its kinda plastic with rubber.. and easy to get dirty.

In case some of you do not know, Nars is under the brand Shiseido. This Nars Orgasm has won numerous awards as one of makeup consumers' and beauty editors' favourite blush and its all time best seller in cosmetic store!


The ingredients


A touch of peachy pink with little gold dust

p/s: Inside got a mirror...yipee!


Swatch of the Orgasm blusher

Warning

I am going to have an orgasm.

So stay out if you think you are not ready
.

(With 1-2 swipe of blusher)

Well I mean I Nars Orgasm blusher on my cheek (cheeky smile)

See the colours , I am falling in love with it every single time I put on it..

It gives you a natural healthy glow (peachy pink shade with some shimmer)

To sum up, Nars Orgasm gives you the natural blush without looking like a Chinese Opera! Those blushing effect is to die for, looks absolutely gorgeous in reality and in pictures too! 


This is my holygrail blusher and I'm having "Orgasm" when I put on this !

p/s: Also I cant help to say that I put on this picture because I think my lips are so sexy with my Holygrail Laneige Snow Crystal Melting Glossy Lipstick in Hot Pink

(I put on 2-3 swipe of the blusher, depending on the intensity of the colour you want to achieve)

I am loving this and I think this is a must have item for all!

Seriously until you try it , you will never know how great to have Nars Orgasm as your blusher.
So do you want to have Orgasm ?

Now you know what to get !

p/s: Note the nearest country that is selling Nars is Thailand, Philippines and Hong Kong.

Latest updates as for Nov 2013, Shiseido Malaysia recently brought in Nars to Malaysia by opening their 1st flagship store in Pavilion KL Level, next to Topshop!

NOTD : Oh Mario!



Who is a Mario lover here ?

I am a self-confessed Mario lover since I am 7 years old ! Now I miss playing Super Mario Bros video game which was created by Nintendo and I even have Super Mario ring tone in my phone now!

If you have no idea what is Mario all about , click here !

Well why am I talking about Mario suddenly, ah now I remember... I am going to do Nail of The Day inspired by Super Mario Bros game!



My tools
Nailtek - Base & Top Coat
M.A.C Nailpolish in Rougemarie
Etude House Nailpolish in White
Etude House Quick dry for Nails



Tadaa my end result! My red base with white polka dote nailpolish !

I apply the white dots using normal white nail polish as I do not have any nail art pens. Which also explain the imperfection.



My darling said this looked more like yummy strawberry.

I think he wants to eat my hands -.-
But I think this look like the Super Mushroom in Super Mario Bros video game !!! Where mario will eat the Super Mushroom and grow larger and he can then kill the enemy by jumping and stomping on the heads of enemies.



I want to eat my nails now, then I grow larger and then I can go stomp on all the bad people head in the world and become Superwoman.... LOL


p/s: I love this nail polish design a lot, its easy and looks cute ! And I cannot resist myself from buying more nail polish from Etude House yesterday because so cheap .. how vain!

EOTD: Smoke Gets In Your Eyes


I got this I Nuovi Starstruck eye shadows pallete from Inuovi's warehouse sale last month for free, as I purchased more than RM50 and above.



The Ugly Truth - my eyes with dark eyes circle ( which makes me looks like a panda!)

And I have been thinking long how to makeup my my eyes looks bigger others than wearing colour contact lens that make my iris looks bigger which give my eyes dolly effect. Especially when the colour lens are so expensive now! Unless I buy cheap Korean brand contact lens which has no guarantee of health to my eyes.. which I still buy it for the fun!



Kindly excuse me.. I know this makeup is not perfect, I'm still practicing it !



I named this eyes makeup as Smoke Gets in Your Eyes because like it is as if my eyes are on fire and the effect of the eyeshadow came from the smoke !

Don't you think so too ?



The only thing I do is blend, blend, blend !!!!!

Blend until you are satisfy with the outcome.


So this is my makeup version of making my eyes looking bigger without any contact lens.

I am using mainly black, grey and white eyeshadow from the palette to come out with Smokey eyes of my version. I applying a layer of Shu Uemura's gel eyeliner on top of my eyelid only together with Clinique Lash Power Mascara.


What do you think?

I know I still need to blend it properly..

So now I need to start to learn to blend.blend.blend.

Online freebies

Nowadays not only the companies are giving out their product samples /services (aka freebies) for people to try via magazines but it has become a trend now especially the cosmetics companies are organising contest or giveaway via their facebook fanpage, which is a great thing for us the internet user. Because we then can have direct communication with the company itself , asking questions and giving feedbacks on the products and services. rendered What more who doesn't have a facebook account nowadays (okay maybe my mom dont have one YET!)! It is a good platform for the company (not just cosmetics) to maintain or build up reputation from there with their existing or potential users effectively and efficiently with not much cost going to be incurred. Back to my online freebies that I have obtained this month !



Won this from KOSE Cosmenience - Nature & Co facebook by sending an email to say why I want to try their products, I was one of the 30 persons selected to get this. This brand is under Kose (Japan) and Kose Cosmenience is their sub brands that target lower range of user at a more afforable price available exclusively in Watsons Malaysia. It claims that it is using certified Organic ingredients and harmonies between nature and science.



I was given Pure White Milky Lotion Light and Pure White Lotion Light both in 35ml.

Will try out this and try do a review on this.



Quite a while ago when Kotek first launched Kotex Luxe Ultrathin at the website, was told to fill up the online form and forward to our friends, unexpectedly I received this recently. Very classy packaging unfortunately when I got the the box it has some scatches on it when I received it.




In pink so pretty that you want to have period everyday ! Okay lah not everyday , die man!



This is from IDI's facebook fanpage where the 1st 50 persons who join as fan got this little freebies. I collected this from Guardian Midvalley.

Such a big pouch that one must be wondering what is it !



Take a peep!





I got 2 sachet of samples to try . One is Tri Action Defender Cream and another is Ultra action protection cream.



Last but not least , I got RM10 off voucher from Make Up For Ever facebook page for participating in their contest .

That is all for now !

Review : Clinique Lash Power Mascara





I redeemed this Clinique Lash Power Mascara in travel size (3ml) 2 months ago when they first launched in Isetan KLCC. And after my Stila Major major lash mascara finished, I took this out this mascara to try. This mascara claimed that mascara extension visible.

Let's see whether it does what it says.



The mascara is in black onyx colour and the wand is short just like normal mascara.

Information extracted from the Clinique's website
Mascara with staying power. Vows to look pretty for 24 hours without a smudge or smear. Lasts through rain, sweat, humidity, tears. Yet the formula removes easily with warm water. Unique brush reaches and beautifully lengthens even the tiniest lashes. Ophthalmologist Tested. Benefit of the mascara long wearing.



I took all the below pictures after I came back from movie, as I was rushing out for movie earlier on. Hence the mascara application was a bit messy, please forgive me for that. I was late for my premier screening of Date Night movie. Must tell you guys it's hilarious and must watch oh ! Back to the topic, I apply only one layer of mascara after curling my lashes, it was easy.



(This is the other day when I put on the mascara slowly and nicely!)



I am glad to find out the mascara's black colour did paid off very well on my lashes. To surprise the mascara's brush did lengthen my lashes visibly and making it more defining although my mascara application was messy here. As you can see from the pictures, after I came back from my movie, there is no flaking and smudging on my face. However you might need to take a little bit to remove this compare to normal waterproof mascara. Others than that, this is just the perfect mascara for the time being for me that does lengthening, defining and separation of lashes nicely.



The mascara did what it claimed ! Visible extension on lashes.

However this mascara does not provide for voluminizing if you wondering, which is understandable since it did not say it will.

I have to confess, I felt with this mascara instantly !

Thinking of purchasing it when I finish using this!

It is priced at RM75 for a full size (if I am not mistaken)



Mascara with light makeup and brown contact lens is my look for the day.

p/s: I should retake the pictures and posted it here when I am free.
