Fall is just one of the season that I love most apart from the Spring :) Aren't the colors looks so  adorable?Hoping for a miracle and wishing that  we could have this beautiful season here in Asia as well. It was just  amazing how  the healthy green leaves turns into bright red when this season comes, isn't it? This is just simply describes how wonderful the beauty of  nature is .Truly one of the greatest gift we have ever received from our Creator.

I have created a look inspired with this season and thought of sharing with you on how I simply made it.

Encountering Fake sellers of MAC and Benefit on Facebook

Hi everyone! I have something to share with you which will somehow may help you to be  more aware and may take this post as precautions especially when buying items from 
facebook or any other online shops out there. 
I just couldn't believed how some people out there are  shameless to cheat by selling fakes stuffs just to make  money. 

I know it sounds stupid but I have encountered an undesirable experience in online shopping on Facebook. Beware of this seller, she has introduced herself as a staff  member of Benefit Cosmetics  Malaysia and selling items like MAC,  Shiseido and Benefit products. The photos shown from her album are original ones and lusciously inviting with marked down prices. According to her, it was on a clearance sale and so yeah  I was convinced to buy from her . To my surprise, here are the items she has sent me.

Recent hauls MAC and Elite Paris

I've  recently bought a two pretty makeups from MAC and Elite Paris(drugstore brand) last week.I was actually planning to bought the Rose Quarts from the Semi Precious Collection but  apparently all  of them are out of stock already:( The MUA recommended  the  mineralize blush in dainty instead.I couldn't resist how pretty it looks on my cheeks when she applied it. The price  was  a bit pricey (95RM) compared to  the powder blush (65RM). I just hate the fact that the MAC's price here in Malaysia is way too expensive than the US price:( Darn! But anyways, to kill this cravings for MAC, I've decided to fork out my 95RM and  take this baby home with me ;P So far this is my first blush from MAC,and I do hope they 're worth to  have it.When I passed by to Watson's, I saw a new makeup collection  Elite Paris and curious about their items ( are these  available in your country too?)

My Experience:

I got my first Shu Uemura Cleansing Oil in Green Tea extract last December 2010, What I like about this cleansing oil is that it really  helps  removing my waterproof mascara using together with my cleansing charcoal pads without any effort. The scent might not be tolerable to others  due to some particular oil substances and the  green tea scent. But for me, didn't find it any redolent at all, in fact I love the way it smells!.Knowing that it has mineral oil substance which some says  can cause breakouts, however  lucky for me that it doesn't  give me any bumps or irritation.I can feel the softness of my skin everytime I use this. This cleanser is a winner,but  is a  bit pricey..

My Experience:

I would say that this is the best scrubbing  cream that I have tried so far  compared to the previous scrubbing cream that I've used before. I got the chance to try this scrubbing cream when I purchased my  Clinique  blended face powder   last year from the counter . SA gave me a 30 ml sample of this  as a compliment.It has microbeads which you can actually  feel when scrubbing off your face. And I've noticed that it does helps a bit closing off my small open  pores around the nose area. I love the way it leaves my skin supple,deeply cleaned and keeping it  fresh.This scrubbing cream gives me a lot of benefits! I think the 100ml tube cost around Rm98  at the counter.For sure, save my penny to purchase it:)

My Experience:

I bought this for RM110 at the Cliniques counter. It comes with a small brush in the package but I use a large powder brush instead to have more even coverage.  I use this powder after applying my concealer or foundations even BB creams.It blends well to my skin and looks natural. Very lightweight, doesn't gives me breakouts,perfect for my combination skin type ..There's only one thing that I don't like from this powder , it doesn't stay long. 


My Ratings: B

I heard so much  positive reviews about on this product and thought of giving  a try.

It keeps my  face oil free all day with a lightweight feeling. Before Im using a blot paper to remove excess oil from my face especially the T zone area,this time not anymore.

My Experience:


For the price of  RM15+ , I was stunned by the  results of it.This product is
virtual steal.Inexpensive yet works great! It does covers my  dark cirles and skin imperfections. Sets evenly well with my Clinique Loose powder. It doesn't look cakey at all compared to a cream base concealer.Personally I like liquid type concealer more cause it looks more natural and very easy to blend and apply. I'm actually on my 2nd bottle of it and happy to re-purchase  it again.

6.)  Kiss Me Liquid liner
Product Description:


I believe that this product is a Japanese brand as it was obviously  written in a japanese languages . Couldn't find any english translation except for the word Heavy Rotation Perfect Liquid Eyeliner and probably the brand name Kiss me.

It is a brush tip type that easily glides on in every application. Long wearing and waterproof! I love it!

MAC and Sleek Storm Pallete Hauls

Hi pretty ladies, what's up? Sorry for the lack of post cause I'm a bit busy this week and this morning my boy and I went for groceries. I couldn't help myself to refuse to take have a look on MAC's Wonder Woman Collection. So far my eyes didn't catch any gorgeous items from these collections. As I was looking at the SA's face who's trying to convince me on these collections,I've noticed her glowing face and can't refrain to ask her what did she use. She promtly told me that it was the Mineralize Skinfinish Poudre de Definition in Soft and Gentle She even ask me if I'd like to try it on,and ofcourse I'd like to:) I remembered my Benefits Girl Meets Pearl when I saw these from SA's glowing faces . And to tell you, I really like this highlighter much  more than the Benefit 's Girl Meets Pearl I guess. I swear, it's much more perceptible on face, and it is mineralized, love it! So in the end, I went home with this one!hahha,told myself not to buy this time for me though*-* We'll as a token of purchasing Mac's item, they are giving sample of cleanser , but I ask for Strobe cream sample instead. Plus you can take pictures with their Wonder Woman Model:)
Me, my 3 yr old boy  Nam and the lovely Wonder Woman:)
Gosh she looks taller on the pics cause she's wearing a 4 inches Red Boots Plus her Convex hairstyle:)



My new MAC Mineralize Skinfinish highlighter in Soft and Gentle
RM115  ( a bit expensive than US/Canada Value)







SLeek Storm Pallete



And finally , my dupe for the Overrated Urban Decay's Naked Pallete arrived 
this morning. All of them who says how beautiful pigmented neutral colors pallete was this, were true indeed.I think I like this more than the Bad Girl Pallete,cause it's perfectly wearable for everyday looks, while the Bad Girl is more on occasional looks.I love Sleek Make up, the cost is so inexpensive yet they give you a quality satisfaction. Can't wait to try this on:) Do you have any of these items? What's your experience with it? Have a fabulous Day to all:)
Fabulosity Yours, 
Aimee
