Blush Bonanza! 5 Light Pink Blushes to try for a natural perky complexion

May 7, 2013 Paris B 76 Comments

light pink blushes

Ok admission – I’m really struggling to get my blogging mojo back LOL! No idea where its gone to be honest. If found, please return. I may offer a lipstick reward. I have my editorial calendar up but I keep pushing things back. So what better way to ease back into the swing of things than to talk about one of my favourite topics – blush! 😀

I was looking in my drawer a while ago and realised that I have a few distinct categories of blush colours that I gravitate towards. I thought I might like to share little compilations from time to time and here’s starting with a very easy to wear category of light pink blushes.

Light pink blushes are one of the easiest ways to ease into wearing blush, especially if you aren’t too adept at applying them yet. Sure, the common lament is that the colour doesn’t show up. But you don’t want splotches on your cheeks. You want a natural glow to your skin, and if you need more colour, its easy to layer them on. Light pink is a good shade, because the colour is light, it gives you just a gentle perky glow and gives you a bit of colour without looking like you applied makeup. Absolutely perfect for the “Makeup? What makeup?” look. That said, not everyone suits pink blush so I am speaking quite generally here – not gospel ok? 😛

Here are 5 light pink blushes I own, that I like and use quite often to get you started. As a bonus, they’re all very easy to use too, even for newbies! 🙂

“Red!” She said “And make it a Gloss d’Armani while you’re at it!”

August 29, 2012 Paris B 44 Comments

I don’t usually wear glosses but when I do, I tend to go for strong, pigmented colors. I guess I just can’t leave behind the notion that my lips and visage tend to look much better with some good colour on them, instead of just a clear shine 🙂 Earlier this week, I told you about the Giorgio Armani Eyes to Kill Intense shadows. This wasn’t intentional, but we have another GA offering again today 🙂

gloss d'armani #400 red

This is the Gloss d’Armani – a pigmented lip gloss by Giorgio Armani and the colour you see here is #400 a strong, true red – was there any doubt that this would be the first colour I’d pick? 😉

Can I just say how much I like the packaging? The tube is a clear plastic at the bottom so the colour shows through, and the cap is black with the distinctive GA logo that sits just between the two halves so the logo overlaps the top and bottom of the tube. Little touches matter! Another thing I should mention is that despite this being a gloss and despite it being plastic, there is a nice heft to the product. It feels lovely and luxurious as befits the brand and image. So how does it perform?

Giorgio Armani Eyes to Kill Intense Silk Eyeshadows : Absolutely worth a splurge!

August 27, 2012 Paris B 77 Comments

The Giorgio Armani Eyes to Kill Intense Silk Eyeshadows are some of my favourite products and the one I find hardest to write a review on. For some reason, every time I try to, I fail or I just can’t find the words. Well I’ve had quite a few queries on these by now, so I thought its time I seized the bull by the horns, as it were, and tackle these glorious little pots of eyeshadows.

giorgio armani eyes to kill eyeshadows

When I started out a year back, I had 2. Since then, its grown to 9 shades which I’ve picked up over time. We do not get Giorgio Armani Beauty here in Malaysia as of now (they pulled out a few years back) so getting these have been an expensive affair involving dependancy on online swatches (thank God for beauty blogs!), willingness of friends to pick them up for me when they travel, travelling, and online shopping! 🙂 For readers in Singapore (or those going to Singapore), rejoice! for GA is now available in DFS Galleria at Scotts Road.

The GA ETK as these are affectionately known, look like potted cream shadows but are in fact, powder shadows. It is rather like a hybrid between loose pigments and cream shadow where they have the strong, intense pigment of loose pigments, but apply like a cream and set like powder to last you pretty much all day long. Yes, they do last all day for me but do note that I have little trouble with creasing and fading in general. If you wear these over a base or apply them wet, the colour is much more intense. Worn on their own, it can be applied subtle or intense – your call 🙂 Here are the colours I have and some general thoughts on whether they are worth the hype (yes!) and the price (ouch, but YES!)

Finally! The Breakdown of What is in that Epic Cosmetics Travel Kit!

June 6, 2012 Paris B 72 Comments

A while ago, I showed you a birds eye view of the epically large cosmetics kit that I packed ostensibly for travel. Firstly, I’d just like to say that if I were truly travelling for work or even for a holiday, I never pack a kit this massive. My travel cosmetics kits fit in 1 pouch and usually look something like this.

This time however, I was headed home for my brother’s wedding and I knew I had to look good so I could not risk a breakout or reactions to new products, and I also knew that I’d be sharing all sorts of stuff with my sister who had warned me that she wasn’t packing anything so could I just bring extra? Ah yes, sisters 🙂

So I packed full sizes of almost everything and packed exact products of skincare I had been using at the time. The bag turned out to be extremely large and probably weighed about 5kg 😛 I could be exaggerating, I’m not sure. But here’s what went in there.
