Revlon ColourStay Moisture Stain - 050 London Posh Review and Swatch

The Moisture Stains have 12 colours in the range, each colour is named after a popular vacation hot spot. The colour I will be reviewing is London Posh - a peachy nude with subtle gold shimmers. A great colour for everyday wear and for smokey eyes. The colour pigmentation is great. It has a doe applicator, which enables precise application. However when I applied the product, it was uneven and patchy, I had to rub my lips together so that the product would melt and even out. 

The texture of the product is like a lip gloss, except that its more runny and slippery. If you put too much on, it will feel heavy as it is quite thick. It hydrates the lips very well. As for the stain factor; this colour doesn't stain the lips, as the colour is light. I can't say for the darker colours. It has a nice shine, making my lips appear full. The product has a subtle paint smell? Not a nice scent but it does fade away. Lastly it as a decent wear time, it lasted around 3 hours. 

Pros:

• Moisturises 
• Not sticky
• Nice shine
• Pigmented
• Decent wear time - 3 hours
• Nice packaging

Cons:

• Heavy
• Slippery
• Transfers
• Does not stain
• Has a paint scent

Rating: 4/10

Would I repurchase?

No, I purchased this due to the hype but personally I found it to be a product to disappoint.

Would I recommend?

No, the product it quite heavy and does not stain. The moisturising factor is great, but thats what lip balms are for right? There are similar products on the market that offer better results.

Have you tried the Moisture Stains yet? ^^

Pink Festival Outfit & Makeup Look 2014: Eye Makeup Tutorial

For 2014, the colour i'm a obsessed with the most is either pink or red. So for this festival look, pink and loads of flowers is a must! This look has a hint of colour yet it is natural and soft, so it could be worn for valentines day too~ ^__^ The purpose of the pink is add a bit of colour and to complement floral headbands.

Products I Used:

1. First apply your BB cream or foundation.

2. Eye makeup pictorial~

3. Apply bronzer to contour and add colour to your face

*derpy moment - I just realised I didn't photograph the bronzer, my bad. >.<*

4. Finish off with a light pink or peachy pink lipstick.

You are now complete!~ ^__^

My take on the "festival" look. xDD Think I should I have added more flowers or patterns >.<

What fun looks have you tried out this summer? ^^ Share them with me~

Girls' Generation Jessica Jung's New Fashion Brand - BLANC

 

Jessica announced on her Weibo that she'll be releasing her own fashion brand - BLANC (www.blancgroup.com). Which will be launched in less than 2 more days, there is a countdown on the website to amp up the excitment. She also plans to launch her own perfume in 2015 F/W. For 2014, the first items she will be introducing are sunglasses. 

The items are inspired by Jessica's style, which she was took inspiration from her favourite cities around the world - Seoul, Tokyo, Hong Kong, New York and Paris. Cities all with great modern fashion. (London wasn't mentioned so I couldn't start singing Mr Taxi "Tokyo, Seoul, London, New York~)

Congratulations to Jessica! ^__^ I can't wait to see what she will bring to the fashion scene. 

The name BLANC, sounds very classy. Which you would except from Jessica, since she's known for her elegant and sleek fashion. She also known for her great fashion sense and talent for design. I think the name BLANC was well selected, since it gives off a classy impression, plus white is Jessica's favourite colour, so its not random. (Blanc means white in French, incase anyone doesn't know)

Jessica  is the first in Girls' Generation to launch own brand, but I think she's also the first to launch her own brand in the kpop industry too. I think that her fashion brand will be such an success, since so many love her of style (including me! ^^). She has a wide connection, inside, outside and behind the entertainment industry. The fact she has a huge passion for fashion and business, BLANC will be a brand truly from 200%+ of her efforts. So you know that she's not launching her own brand for the money. Although she will likely to become even more a millionaire by this.

What do you think of this? I'm very happy for Jessica since her hard work and dream/goal has finally paid off. Her great fashion sense, will introduce fascinating products and change the fashion industry itself. ^__^

Schwarzkopf Gliss Shine Tonic - Shimmering Shine & Repair Care 100ml Review

I'll make a little guilty confession - when I purchased this, I had no idea what this product does or what a tonic even is, I just remembered seeing tonics when I worked at a hair salon. So I was curious as to what it does and purchased it. 

With research and more experience, I have learnt that tonics are used to style hair. Its supposed to make hair healthy, so that it easier to manage and style. People with dry hair can benefit from tonics, as they can moisture the hair, which will add shine and help prevent split ends. They can also add volume to the hair.

This tonic appealed to me as the description claimed "The repair formula cares and gives shine." A product that cares and gives shine to dry, damage hair? Yes please! My hair is very dry and damaged, which is no new surprise to me. I expect it with the amount of heat I use and how I constantly dye my hair.

I spray this onto my hair after i've finished blow drying it or straightening it. The tonic sprays out as a fine mist. The tonic has a soft and sweet scent, I would say a milk and honey scent. It instantly leave your hair shiny, making it look healthier. I've noticed it does make your hair feel smooth, so there are less tangles. However I didn't notice much difference for the repair care factor.

Rating: 6/10

Would I repurchase? 

Maybe - for something a little extra. The shine it gives is really nice, however I tend to forget to spray it and often neglect the product. 

Would I recommend it? 

The tonic is lightweight, it adds extra shine to your hair and makes it tangle less. If thats what you're looking for then yes I do recommend it to you.

Have you tried a tonic a before? ^_^
