Nail Polish Haul : Revlon nail Enamels New Colors

Hi Girls, if you are following my instagram account, i guess you already knew that i did posted about nail polish lately. yes it's true that i'm currently obsessed with nail polish hihi

it's around the latest two months, i'm starting curious to trying a nail polish brand such like an O.P.I, china glaze, or essie but since i'm not expert to applying nail polish and the finish result is still look messy, i think i should start practice applying a nail polish with the cheapest one first LOL

so now, i'm on my mission to finding a cheap & fun nail polish. last Saturday night, i went to the department store with my hubby, FYI i live in a small city so there is only 3 brand counters in here which selling the nail polish such as pixy, revlon, and l`oreal. pixy is the cheapest one, it's only cost $1,5 but they didn't have a lot of color selection.

l`oreal have a lot of fun color selection, especially for they candy / neon line but it's still too expensive for me. so i decided to dropped by at the revlon counter directly. revlon nail polish is quite cheap in here, only cost for IDR 37rb ($4).

When i arrived on the Revlon counter, the Beauty assistant asked me what kind of the nail colors that i need. as long as i remember, Revlon didn't have some fun or neon color since the last time i visiting their counter. they only have a lot color selection from the nude, red, or brown colors range. however, when i saw their nail polish display, i was surprised, i saw a lot of fun color on their display. let's named them such neon pink, pastel, turquoise, blue, etc.

the beauty assistant told me if there is a lot of new & fun colors available in Indonesia now uh..uh.. i'm so excited.
no wonder when i'm starting "kalap", then picks 8 colors from the display an the the color i've chosen are :

L-R: Charming, Bewitching, Flirt, Mischevous, Chic, Black Lingerie, Sweet tart

 

 

 

 

 

oh ya, the Beauty Assistant told me if there is more of fun color which are still currently out of stock such as mint, shocking green, yellow, orange, even the glittery one whoaa it sounds so interesting to have all of them wahaha. I asked her to call me when the more color is back in stock.

i'm not doing any swatches on this post, maybe i will do "nail of the week" post every Monday *pinky promise*.so if you curious about the swatches, please back in here every Monday.

thank you for visiting my blog, please share with me if you have any ideas about the cheap nail polish that i should try. i do love to hear from you.

have a nice and colorful day everyone.

ELF Studio Long Lasting Lustrous Eyeshadow ` Gala & Festivity ` Review &swatches

Hi friends, today i'm going to review another elf products. The name is ELF studio Long Lasting Lustrous Eyeshadow. I have tried these for a while and wanted to share my opinion. Elf always doing a good job to make any dupe for the hype makeup on the market, and these are like an dupe for maybelline color tattoo which is everyone rave about that maybelline. the concept is very similar, a cream eyeshadow which came in round jar packaging. so here is my review :

Product name :

ELF studio Long Lasting Lustrous Eyeshadow

price : 

$3 on the web
IDR 60k / $6 if you are buy this from Indonesian online shop, quite fair price, considering the expensive overseas shipping from US plus import tax.


size : 
0.11oz/3.0g

whats this? (elf claim) :

Soft and fluffy, these vibrant, shimmering Long Lasting Lustrous Eyeshadow colors can be used as eyeshadow or a bold liner. The whipped gel texture is easy to blend and lightweight for lasting comfort and wear. Perfect for highlighting the brow bone and adding extra shimmer for a truly glam look

ingredients :

packaging :

- it's come in the mini round clear jar with the screw top.
- plastic material.
- the clear bottom jar makes you can see what the color inside clearly.
- the downside is, there is no sticker or label on the jar to show the name of the shade.


texture :

- it's totally different with the maybelline color tattoo, it's more dry like an mousse texture with the bouncy effect but i still can feel the creamy feeling on the texture.
- they are have own different texture, i never touch an product which have an feeling like this, it's kinda remind me with the maybelline mouse blush but way more smooth and wet.
- the texture makes this eyeshadow really easy to blend.

color & finish:

i have 2 color from the 7 shades they available :
- gala : is an dark browny color
- festivity:is an plum browny color
- it's super glittery and sparkling. Yes, lot of glitter not shimmer! i hate the glittery things especially for eyeshadow but believe me this kind of one is an exceptional. this eyeshadow have a super gorgeous glittery finish, i can wear it alone. it can make my eyes pop without looking like an disco ball even in the bright sunny day.
- i love the cream finish on my eyelid. it feels very lightweight

pigmentation :
- good pigmentation
- A rating
- one swipe is enough to cover all over the lid
- buildable, a tiny amount is perfect for daily basis uses but you can build more swipe to create a dramatic look for the night time wear.


staying power :
- good. without primer underneath, this eyeshadow can lasts for 6-8 without creasing although the color a little bit fade.

swatches :

my experience :
ELF is one of my most favorite drugstore product, so when they launch  this kind of eyeshadow, i really want to grab them all. however, since i promised not to be a makeup hoarder, i have to choose the most exciting color and eliminate the others. i'm so glad having this eyeshadow, especially for festivity one. the festivity is a very unique purple color, i never found similar color like this on the other brand. it's a perfect eyeshadow to grab when i'm in hurry, i just use my point finger then swipe and dab on all over my lid and up to the crease. i don't have any complain about these eyeshadow, everything is fine. I personally prefer these elf than a maybelline color tattoo since it's more have light feeling on my lids, blendable and buildable.
repurchase? maybe yes. i want to grab all the rest of shades.

Review & Swatches : PAC lipstick pencil in Frozen Rose & Glossy Bare

Good morning friends,i`m back with another lip products review and today it's time for the Indonesian brand called PAC .
If you live in Indonesia, i think you already familiar with this brand. PAC is an high-end Indonesian cosmetics brand and I have tried few of them. I like the blushes and powder, so a few months ago i decided to tried their jumbo lipstick pencil. so here is my opinion about this product.

Product Name :

 PAC Lipstick Pencil

Price : 

IDR 91.500 / $9, it's quite expensive right?
 

Packaging :

-jumbo pencil, with the clear cap
-need to sharpened
-wood material
-the design made this lipstick looks so `high-end`

 

Texture :
- it's super smooth &creamy
- glides on smoothly on my lips
- this is the best texture lipstick of Indonesian brand that i found so far.it doesn't feel like you wearing a lipstick, its feels very light
 

Pigmentation & Finish :
- good pigmentation & very opaque
- both of the color have a nice glossy finish, not over shinny
 

Staying Power :
- last for 3-4 hours, but i still can see the stain left after that
- need reapply after eat or drink
 

Colors:
-frozen rose : medium pink,blue undertone (cool), with a hint of lilac
-glossy bare : medium brown, red undertone,
 

Frozen Rose

Glossy Bare

Swatches:

frozen rose

Glossy Bare

Frozen Rose

Glossy Bare

My Experience:

This brand is out of my radar actually.. LOL because i'm rarely visiting PAC`s counter. i dont know, i just felt they have over prices range, but since this brand speciality is for proffesional MUA stuff, the quality is worth for the price i think. spending $10 for just one piece Indonesian brand lipstick, sounds overwhelming for me but i give it a try finally. The texture for this jumbo lip pencil is really impressed me. it's much smoother than the other regular lipstick out there, even compared with international high-end brand. the pigmentation is great too, i loved how it feels very lightweight on my lips. I think it's gonna be great if it comes in retractable lip packaging. it's gonna be more easy to used it. the size is big and i think this lipstick gonna last for a long time. will i repurchase? hmm i don't think so if i have to buy it on the regular full price. Maybe if the counter held a big sale in the end of the year, i'm gonna buy for another shades.

so ya, that's my experience testing out PAC jumbo lip pencil
hope this review will helpfull for you
xoxo
