Eye Shadow -Shu Uemura - Eye Shadow
chantal_wee 5/1/2013 11:47:00 AM
Love the eyeshadows! It stays the whole day and even if i take a nap with it, it's still there! Love the colors as some colors like MAC are too bold for me. The colors are just right and it can be used for work and also for evening dinners. The color on the palette does not seem nice, but once you put in on your eyes, it's just gorgeous! My favourite eyeshadow of all time!

Cleansers -Shu Uemura - Ultime8 Sublime Beauty
chantal_wee 5/1/2013 11:41:00 AM
I love this product! As I have a very dehydrated and sensitive skin, thus I could only use a few types of cleansers before my face breaks out. However, with this product, my face felt more hydrated and the does not break out at all! The summary of this Ultime8: 1. Removes all my makeup easily (even the heavy mascaras in just a few seconds!) 2. My skin does not break out 3. Skin hydration is better 4. My pores seems smaller these days Prefer this to other cleansing oil as it feels so much smoother and nice rather than the other shu cleansing oil which makes my face feels tight. Also, this product goes a long way! Just a little is enough!

Eyeliner -Maybelline - HyperSharp Liner
chantal_wee 12/25/2011 2:01:00 PM
Just got this product after introduction from a friend. i LOVE IT! It lasts soo long, even more than 12 hours! It doesnt smudge at all! And the color intensity still stays the same! I was using Bobby Brown's gel eyeliner and it did smudge after 5-6 hours. And that I thought was the best among all the eyeliners. After using this, this is my HG eyeliner! Not only that it is cheap but really lasting! absolutely love this so much!!! So far, i have been using this for 1 month, so i'm stil using it to see how long the pen can last.

Fragrances -L'Occitane - Peony Eau de Toilette
chantal_wee 10/24/2011 11:09:00 AM
I bought this as I do not like the heavy perfumes...It's light and has a fresh smell....The bad thing is that it not only doesn't last long, somehow i smell bad when i start to sweat! Somehow the chemical makeup seems to just not gel with me..... Really smelt quite horrible... So now i'm only using it for short outings where i know i wont be sweating as much or to office (if i'm not visiting clients).... Am not going to purchase this again. P.S. It's not that cheap either....

Foundations -The Body Shop - All-In-One Face Base
chantal_wee 10/24/2011 11:02:00 AM
I bought this by desparation as I was at the airport and had found i left my compact foundation at home, and i was on a business trip. So I panicked and bought one at the airport. I think it was the best buy I had bought for a compact foundation! I loved how it made my skin "glow" and looks really natural without being too made up! Also, usually when i use any type of foundation / powder, i'll always have shiny/oily nose which will make me look like rudolph the rednose reindeer after a couple of hours. BUT this DID not make my nose as oily! It lasts the whole day! I dont even need to touch-up! I bought 02 and the color suited me perfectly! I also have sensitive skin and quite a number of face foundations i had used always made me break out! I'm using this for 1 week and so far so good! No breakouts! I was using Shu Uemura as it didnt caused me to break out. But after comparing to this, i definitely will continue with this! Also this is WAAY cheaper than Shu Uemura's and the color suits me better!!! I could buy 2 of this for one of Shu's! Also when i use the powder - it's not so easy to come out / waste as comparison to Shu which is quite soft - so you tend to take more and finish more too! Also the plus point for Body Shop is that I DO NOT look like Rudolph!!! :D Absolutely love this product!! Had already bought the 2nd one (coz it's on sale!). I would recommend it!

Primer/ Corrector -Shu Uemura - Stage Performer Instant Glow
chantal_wee 12/8/2010 10:26:00 AM
I work really long hours (at least 12 hours a day) and usually at the end of the day, my skin would look really pale, oily and splotchy.A real nightmare..After putting on this right after my moisturizer, and letting it sit in for about 30 seconds before putting my powder, my face not only instantly "glows" but my smooth "complexion" lasts the whole day! So many of my friends and colleagues have commented that I look different, better skin, etc...Also, my face is always lacking of hydration and is always oily at my T-Zone. No matter what products I used to rehydrate my skin, it's always not enough...until I started using this. I can feel my skin's hydration getting better and my skin doesn't secrete excess oils. Hence = great complexion / perfect skin! I love this product so much! My mom is also using this and it works great on her too! It is a little pricey but you just need to use very little in truth and it's well worth the quality! Definitely one of my mom's and my MUST HAVES!

Brows -Shu Uemura - Brow Pencil
chantal_wee 10/17/2010 10:50:00 AM
I absolutely love this product! It makes my brow look so natural. Even my mother is convinced with this product that she is also using it! I always tend to overdraw my brows - making me look fierce and my brows looking fake. This is perfect for me as I am able to handle and draw the line without "overdrawing"! The color is gorgeous too - blends in perfectly with my medium brown hair. A lot of eyebrow pencils is either too light or too dark for me. This color is perfect. Both my mom and myself is using seal brown. The color stays on really long. I work for more than 12 hours a day, and when I come back home, my eyebrows still looks good! absolutely in love with this product!

Brows -Shu Uemura - H9 Hard Brow Pencil - Seal Brown
chantal_wee 10/4/2010 11:53:00 AM
love this pencil. it makes my brow looks natural, and really, i have quite sparse eyebrows so with normal eyebrow pencils, you can see that i drawn it in, but really not with this pencil. It stays on the whole day even with my oily skin! it has great control too, as you can not apply too much and look like a drag queen. will definitely buy it again....

Concealers -Shu Uemura - Mark Cealer [DISCONTINUED]
chantal_wee 10/4/2010 11:40:00 AM
it works great for covering my eyebags. it's smooth and blends in easily with my foundation. it's not too thick and not too thin - just right! It is a tad expensive though, a small stick for RM80.

Eyeliner -Bobbi Brown - Gel Eyeliner
chantal_wee 10/17/2009 1:40:00 PM
When i use eyeliners for dinners, it will usually smudge and at the end of the night, i'll look like a panda bear. However, with this, it doesnt smudge even when i started to have it on in the morning and it stays until night! However, the downside is that it takes practice using this and cannot be rushed when applying. It does come cakey if your brush is not cleaned properly. Noticed that it does dries up quite easily in the pot so you have to be really careful. Great staying power and goodbye to panda eyes! Will definitely buy it again!
