Sitting at the Front Row for the Finale of the Revlon Colorstay Ultimate Suede Lipstick collection

April 29, 2013 Paris B 31 Comments

revlon colorstay ultimate suede lipstick

In the drugstore/pharmacy aisles, if you are ever in the market for a good lipstick, I will always steer you not so gently towards Revlon. Over the years, I’ve rarely been disappointed. Ok, I have been, but not so much that I’d not go back. I usually look to Revlon for foundation and lip products and they serve me well.

The last 2 lip products to grab everyone by the lapels and make them buy up all the colours in store were the Lip Butters and the Just Bitten lip stain. I’m told the latter is selling out like hot cakes – even better than the Lip Butters. I thought that intriguing because I’m not a fan of the latter, but I’m quite comfortable with the former.

But before interest can even wane in the Revlon lip products, along comes another in the form of the Revlon Colorstay Ultimate Suede Lipstick. These new suede textured (read: matte) lipsticks were launched locally a couple of months ago but I’ve been a little torn about what I think of them. Have you tried these?

Making scents of the Balmain Ivoire perfume

April 28, 2013 Paris B 20 Comments

balmain gown

I’m not your most fashion-savvy person out there so although I will recognise certain names, I can never tell you what sort of clothes they make. So for example, when I saw the beautifully beaded eagle in flight suspended at the base of a plunging back of what is otherwise a very simple, even plain black sheath dress, I could never tell you that it was from the fashion house of Balmain.

But it is. I was terribly fascinated by this one because of the interesting back to the dress. From the front, it is a simple high necked deep navy blue sheath. Turn around, and the back pungles down to the small of your back with that interesting beaded eagle. I’d love to shimmy myself into that dress!

But we’re not here to talk about dresses and Balmain designs. This is about Balmain Ivoire fragrance – a reworking of a Balmain classic scent from 1979. If you can remember that and are reading this, I would like to a) take my hat off to you and b) meet you! 😛

Dior Summer Sneak Peek: Bird of Paradise Summer 2013 Collection and new Addict Lip Gloss

April 25, 2013 Paris B 50 Comments

dior bird of paradise summer 2013

When Pantone announced that the colour of the year for 2013 was emerald, I could not help noticing that many brands didn’t utilize it for teir Spring collections. We saw mostly pinks this year. But for Summer, Dior is rectifying that with a vengeance!

The theme for the Dior Summer 2013 makeup collection is the legendary bird of paradise that flies through the skies, never touching the ground, free, flamboyant and elusive. Truly, who has ever seen a bird of paradise? (not the flower 😛 ) Drawing on a sunny, tropical theme inspired by the Amazon jungles of South America, the Dior Bird of Paradise collection is lush and green, with tropical brights included.

I had a little preview of the collection yesterday and wanted to share with you a sneak peek of the products available, and what they look like when applied by the expert hand of Dior’s Pro-team International Makeup Artist from Spain, Junior Cedeno (who is also a super cutie and amusing to boot!) 😉 Just a quick one and I’ll have the more detailed swatches, tips etc to follow in time to come.

Your Say: What are your thoughts on Bikini and Brazilian Waxing? Are you a fan?

April 23, 2013 Paris B 43 Comments

Hi everyone, this is a short note to let you know that from today, blog posts will appear every other day or two until I get back on my feet. I had a rough day yesterday and I don’t have the mood, inspiration nor inclination to blog about beauty just right now. Things will go back to normal soon, but till then, I don’t want to leave things in the lurch so slowing down is the best compromise. Emails and comments will take me a while. Thanks for bearing with me 🙂 xx PB

bikini wax

I love MWS readers. They ask the most interesting questions and give me loads of ideas for blog posts and some of you have also given me some good ideas on blog layout (which I’ve been working on and tweaking, if you’d like to take a look at the navigation bar above 😉 ). But today, its about a question that reader pondsandleaves asked in her comment on a post 2 weeks ago.

My post was about hair removal where so many of you lovely ladies chimed in with your interesting ‘hair-raising’ experiences (since I have none to share). But Pondsandleaves wanted to know what you thought about bikini waxing. I thought it was very interesting, so here it is.

What are YOUR views on bikini or brazilian waxing?

I remember when I first tried the #antipodesskinca I remember when I first tried the #antipodesskincare Aura Manuka Honey Mask. It blew my mind away! Soothes skin. Boosts hydration and just makes you feel like you have the best skin ever! Not kidding. If you have a spot or irritated skin, it calms it down and helps get rid of your spots too. Honey is anti bacterial after all, so it’s a great multitasker. 
I also love the Manuka Honey Skin brightening Day Cream. It’s light but creamy and sinks into the skin. I’ve reviewed them both on the blog in the past. If you run a search for Antipodes, you’d also notice how much I love the brand! 😁
I’m super late with this but if you’re planning to purchase any of these 3 Manuka honey items from TNS Skinlab, the code MYWSTUFF10 will give you an extra 10% off (until tomorrow 31 Dec) I highly recommend grabbing the Aura mask. You’ll never want to be without (I always have a backup!) 
Thanks for the gift @tnsskinlab and I must apologise for my tardiness 😩 I’ll learn to cope better from next week! 
Now I have to scuttle and write my year end musings. Some traditions must be kept! 😜
Tell me your fave Antipdoes skincare product!

It’s my first year doing retail and honestly, I’d never been so busy! The year-end rush is unreal! But busy is good, right? At least that’s what I tell myself 😂
While I pack up gift boxes of treats for doggies 🐶 (I’ve tied so many ribbons I’ve finally started to get it right!) #loccitanemalaysia makes it easy to shop for humans 😅 at experienceloccitane.com with their L’Occitane en Demande service. Place your order, and pick up in store or have it delivered. 
Had a bit of breather today and put together a little video. Blink and miss my little monster 🐶 helping me shop! Not sponsored but I did receive a gift from L’Occitane, for which my sun-exposed, dry dog-walking skin thanks you! 
Haven’t done any Christmas shopping this year. It has only just struck me that it’s but mere days away! 😨 Have you done yours?
