Revlon ColorStay Foundation Review..

Okay time to review.. Hahah but pls note that my review is based after using it for ONLY 2 DAYS. =P

So, after 2 days, my review of this fdn is ALL Positive, at least majority of it is.. =D


Shade, Nude. Thought it would be too pinky or dark for me since it is pink-based. But I would say the shade is a pretty good match for me, but not the exact though.. Noticed this morning before applying loose powder that it's a little dark for me.. Probably a little lighter would be more accurate.. Luckily, my LP managed to help me lighten it a little, making it not too bad.. =) 

Oil control is actually real good! When I reached home yesterday, I took a look at myself in the mirror. No shine-ing face, it's almost a full day from 9a.m to 7p.m! Though I'm using other pdts to help control oil as well.. But usually I still end up with some shine on my nose.. 

Coverage-wise, it's awesome as well! Hee.. Usually I will use bb cream as base/concealer before putting on fdn, with this, I can spread a layer and then layer on a little and it is enough to cover my redness and dark spots! Of course under-eye circles not included lar.. Hahahaha.. 

So here's my conclusion/review of the Revlon ColorStay Fdn.

+ Good match after applying LP( Not the best though)
+ Coverage is Medium to Full (layer on and it's Full coverage)
+ Oil control is superb
+ No cakey
+ No touchup needed (I'm a lazy person)
+ Oxidisation is very little


- Bottle design is not user-friendly
- Dries a little faster than normal foundation (Have to spread fast & well)
- Fdn feels a little thick
- Price a little ex (I mean the usual price)
- Limited shades available in Singapore. 


Hmm, that's about all for now. Guess I shall really give Buff/Ivory a try.. *LEMMINGS*

SHILLS Magical Hair Fully Powder

Opened my mailbox and saw my shills inside!

It's actually quite a small bottle, but lucky i bought it off ebay at less than $10.. And it's so cute!

Not sure if it really works not.. Should apply on wet, semi-dry or fully dry hair? Hmm.. k off to google more about it..

Revlon ColorStay Foundation in Nude!



I finally got my hands on it!

Lolx.. Have been contemplating whether to get it from online drugstore spree for this fdn in buff.. But is always eye-power only.. So yest, finally i went to JL and bought it at 20% + 10% disc off regular price.. think less than $20? Quite a good deal i would say, minus all the shipping and waiting.. 

Was about to get sand beige, then instead I went to ask whether Nude or Sand Beige is lighter.. SA recommended me Nude, so I took the risk and got Nude! 

Applied this morning, so far so good! I would say the coverage is considered medium to almost full coverage, and the shade match me surprisingly al right(according to my colleague). Seems better than my clinique SuperFit because it's easier to spread.. SF feels drier..

Shall wait till tonight and review more tmr.. Hopefully is a positive 1!

Nature Republic Blusher

Nature Republic Blusher Shine Blossom in #2 (light peachy coral)

My newest purchase in the cosmetics section! Got it the day i went to get my iPhone! It was having a 20% disc, U.P @ $13.90 or $14.90 IIRC.

Actually I got it because I was attracted to the fluffy puff.. *hides*
Cause.. I've never had any blusher with fluffy puff before! Mine are mainly loose pigments or compressed 1 that uses brush to apply.. So this got me just all so tempted, plus it's a new korean brand and with disc! 

hahaha.. ok so here's how it looks like..

Anyone heard of this brand before? It's Nature Republic, a korean brand, but the web is all in korean language, can't understand anything at all.. =(
