Sweet feminine glam with Pony X Memebox – Pony’s Favorite Set #03 Orange: Review, Swatches & Pictorial
If you are a first-timer for eyeshadows, a neutral palette with warm oranges and browns is hands-down a safe choice. I’m stoked by my recent purchase, the Pony X Memebox – Pony’s Favourite Set #03 Orange! It’s a beautiful palette with a good combination of shades for your everyday makeup look.
If you haven’t known, Pony is a Korean self-taught makeup artist who has won the “2011 Makeup Artist of the Year Award”. This gorgeous chick is one of the hottest beauty icons in the industry. Her passion for beauty is evident on her YouTube channel Pony’s Beauty Diary where she delivers the hottest K-Beauty trends. This time, she has teamed up with Memebox to design products that are beginner-friendly and can glam you up instantly.
With Pony, a floral-lover, it’s no surprise that her collaboration products are housed in packaging with a dainty floral design of sunflowers, gerberas and possibly daisies. Pony’s Favorite Set #03 Orange contains two products from her line:
- Pony Shine Easy Glam 3 Eyeshadow Quad #03 Orange Bloom
- Pony Blossom Lipstick #03 Orange Dahlia
Bling Me Prism with Etude House X High Cheeks: Review, Swatches & Pictorial
Fall’s trend brings us to rather gold and bronzy eye makeup without being too over the top and Etude House is launching some liquid eyeshadows in those shades, in their latest collection! We see Etude House bringing in a brand new collection, Bling Me Prism, in collaboration with Korean accessories brand High Cheeks! Well it’s all about that bling, ’bout that bling, oh baby~
Bling Me Prism screams fun, sexy and cool, all at once because it’s about vibrant pop of colours on the lips and easy, day-to-day wearable for eyes! Oh and there are some hologram nail colours too (not shown here)! The collection also evokes a sense of playful, colourful fun with its pop-art graphics and unique packaging that’s made for keeps! Look at those sexy lips and eyes!~
Let’s get started with the eyes, shall we? Bling Me Prism Eyes (S$11.90) is a water-base eyeshadow colour that requires blending with the fingers to create an even eye colour on the lids. It’s said to provide a cooling and moisturising effect on the skin around your eyes but I don’t actually feel so..
Embrace Fall with Chanel Les Automnales 2015 Collection: Review, Swatches & Pictorial
Before I go into the full review of the two eyeshadow palettes from the Chanel Les Automnales 2015 Collection, I must say that this is by far one of the Fall/Holiday Collections that I am deeply in love with. With warm, neutral hues, this is love at first sight for me! The palettes are rooted in multi-faceted, androgynous colours that can be worn at any point in time to portray effortless sophistication. You can never go wrong with any of these.
Chanel’s makeup has always been dressed in its classic black packaging that portrays nothing short of chic and elegant.
This Fall, be amazed at the intricacy of the embossed design on the Les 5 Ombres de Chanel Entrelacs Eyeshadow Palette that reflects the stained-glass windows of Aubazine in central France, where Gabrielle Chanel spent part of her youth, and the pigment-rich textures of the Les 4 Ombres Tissé d’Automne Eyeshadow Palette inspired by the threads of the Chanel tweed.
The One Brand Makeup Pictorial with Clio: Review & Swatches
Do you have that one brand of makeup that you tend to pick out every day just because you feel safe, or whenever you are rushing? For me, whenever I don’t feel like picking out particular makeup products, I tend to find myself reaching for Clio’s products, specifically the Gelpresso Waterproof Shadows and the Kill Black/Brown Eyeliners. They are fuss-free and very easy to use, hence are my ideal products for quick touch-ups as well!
Since Clio has sent me several other products including some of their lip products – Virgin Kiss Lip Primer, Lipnicure Liquid Lipsticks and Top Coat, I’ve decided to do a One Brand Makeup Pictorial using these, complete with my views and thoughts on them.
