Cleansers -Shu Uemura - High Performance Balancing Oil - enriched version
darlie 4/23/2010 9:18:00 AM
I got 2 samples of High Performance Balancing Oil - enriched version from Shu when I bought makeups. Being a big (but not always loyal) fan of Shu, i was very keen to try it. This oil is thicker than other Shu cleansing oil formula I have used: cleansing oil light (discontinued), fresh (pink bottle), the whitening one (light blue bottle) and the basic one (yellow bottle). Like all versions of Shu cleansing oil, It has a fantastic removing power. I find the smell pretty nice. Shu cleansing oils have never cause any break-out or rash to my very sensitive skin. I would not buy the enriched version, because I think the fresh version in pink bottle and the basic one in yellow bottle suit my skin better than this one. Plus i do not like the thickness of this oil. However, I wouldn't mind using the enriched version if i got it for free. Because there's nothing wrong with this product really. I would highly recommend it to people with dry skin.

Crème -Kanebo - Lunasol Water Cream Foundation
darlie 4/21/2010 4:58:00 AM
I bought a Lunasol cream foundation in OC02 color at a Kanebo/Lunasol counter in Thailand for THB 1,800. (I have very fair Asian skin and can use both OC01 & OC02, although OC02 is slightly darker than my skin. Sensitive skin) I had already had a Lunasol liquid foundation in OC01 and was impressed with it. However, I heard that the cream formula is fantastic so I decided to give it a try. That's how I fell in love with this product. The foundation goes on really smooth; it glides like a dream on my skin. It provides more coverage than the liquid formula. I would say the cream foundation gives medium coverage. It gives a prefect luminous glow to the skin. I even prefer it to the Lunasol liquid foundation, as the cream one does not contain alcohol which can irritate sensitive skin. I will definitely repurchase once i run out of this product. It's the best cream foundation for me. The search for a perfect foundation is over.

Blush -Shu Uemura - Glow On M Peach 44
darlie 7/29/2007 1:06:00 AM
It is a good everyday blush. The color is pretty but I never wear it alone. I usually use it either as a face powder to lighten up my face before applying another blush with darker color or to highlight my cheekbone. Being a big fan of Shu Uemura, I wouldn't mind buying it again.

Fancl washing powder is overall a good cleansng product. It's gentle and leaves my face clean and fresh. however, I give it 4 as the producing foam part is a bit annoying when I'm on a rush. Will repurchase. ^^

Concealers -Bobbi Brown - Creamy Concealer

I hate to be one of few people that dislike the concealer. The texture is way too creamy and takes ages to set on. I wouldn't repurchase.

Concealers -Prescriptives - Traceless Skin Responsive Corrector

I wonder why it's called Traceless concealer when this actually leaves a powdery trace. The packaging is good, very easy to use and carry in my makeup bag.

Concealers -Laura Mercier - Secret Brightener
darlie 6/12/2006 11:34:00 PM
An instant undereye brightener. Travel-friendly. The reason I gave 4 stars is that it doesn't really cover the dark circles, and my undereye area looks way unnaturally bright. Wouldn't repurchase as I prefer more natural healthy look.

Nice product. Texture is lighter and provides less coverage than LM secret concealer. Still one of the best buys.

Concealers -Laura Mercier - Secret Concealer

Flawless product. Good coverage, brightens my undereye and stays put all day long when I apply some powder on it. For me a LM Secret Concealer usually lasts about 1.5-2 years, and I'm on my fourth tub already!

Misc Beauty Tools -Shiseido - Eyelash Curler
darlie 6/1/2006 3:09:00 AM
I prefer Shi lash curler to Shu one cos it perfectly fits my eyeshape. and i don't find the price high at all cos an eyelash curler lasts a very long time, plus it comes with a spare rubber. Would definitely repurchase.

Blush -BeneFit Cosmetics - Dandelion
darlie 6/1/2006 3:03:00 AM
The product comes in a cute package, and I decided to give it a try even though I was horrified by the price tag. the color is pretty light pink -- too light I had to use it as a hilighter as I have very fair skin. I regret buying Dandelion cos it's not worth the price AT ALL. Doesn't stay longer than 2 hours, so I need to reapply very often. Would NEVER repurchase.

Blush -RMK - Jelly Cheek Colour

Fine texture. A must-makeup buy for beauty addict gals. :) The only downside is that it's very expensive that I'd hesitate to repurchase.
