Camellia oil

I asked my sister to buy camellia oil for me.  Camellia oil or tea seed oil is used by Japanese women for their hair and skin. It is also known as Tsubaki .  Nas bought  the Camellia oil from  Kurobara. There are two camellia flowers on the yellow box. There is another camellia oil with one flower on the box . It is from Oshima. I have used this oil for my hair mostly. It does not have a strong aroma.  The bottle I have is 75 ml and the price is 1200 yen.
 I  like using oil on my face.  I think I will invest on some good essential oil in the near future .  However  I would get really bored as it will take quite some time to finish a 30 ml bottle of face oil. You  would have to fork out some money initially but  then you can save on the creams.

Danos Loose powder

I know about  Danos loose powder for about three years. This is a loose powder favoured by many make up artists in Malaysia. This product is from Thailand. It is waterproof. There are four colours to choose from. I bought no. 3.  It is a nice colour .  However it  depends on what kind of foundation you use. Sometimes the colour does not fall through .  The price of this powder  varies from one seller to the next. It will cost anywhere from RM 18 to RM 45.

Bifesta cleansing lotion sebum

 

 

 

 

Bifesta cleansing lotion is a makeup remover and cleanser . You don't have to wash your face again after removing the makeup. It is an a 300 ml plastic bottle. Bifesta is also produced by Mandom.  Mandom also produced the Pixy range and the Miyami two way compact powder.  I am satisfied with this cleanser. I chose the one with sebum because of my acne prone skin. It will last a  long  time . I would use this cleanser for light makeup and for those heavy makeup I use cleansing oil. Bifesta cleansing lotion  is available at major pharmacies nationwide. The price is RM 31.70.

Nars Sheer Glow Foundation



Nars sheer glow foundation was on my mind for quite some time  . After reading the  reviews and looking at the You tube videos, I was all set to buy this foundation. So on the second day of Eid , I went to Pavillion to buy this foundation.

The SA picked Syracuse for me. I thought it is quite dark for me.  When I went back , I looked tan .
When I used my Naturactor loose powder to set it , my face does not look too dark.  The foundation is lovely and it  glides beautifully.  I like this foundation and it did not disappoint me.  The shelf life is two years. So I have quite some time to play with it. The price of this foundation is RM 174.00.

Sheet Masks from Sasa

For  the most part of my adult life , when I started to use face masks, I always use the ones from the tubes. Or the ones  which I have to mix with water or other fluid . I followed my niece Maryam to Sasa one day.  She bought some sheet masks. So I bought some for myself.  There was a sale for sheet masks that day .
You can buy 10 masks for RM 20.00. Yipee !!! I bought most masks from Sasa brand the Sasatine and some masks from Korea.  My favourite masks are  the one with cucumber and the tighening one with rosehip oil  . The masks lasted more than one month.    Most of the masks are  priced at RM 4.90. Yet I still liked the ones I used before  . It lasted longer. 

Guerlain Rouge Automatique in 122

 

 

When my parents went to Mecca, I asked my mother to buy a Guerlain lipstick .Not that it is not available in Malaysia. I wanted the colour 125 but it is not available. I love the red colour . I think Guerlain makes the best lipstick. I got the colour 121 which is not as deep as 122 Liu.  The colour is more raspberry than deep red. But I  like  it.  I have one pimple and it is receding.  My gripe now is the small scars and large pores.  I don't know what to do at the moment. My sister Nas has gone back to Riyadh last Sunday. All of us sent her . My brother Mal will go back to Madinah this coming Monday.  The price of the Rouge Automatique lipstick is RM 119 at KLIA airport and it is RM 126 at Sephora .

Maybelline Colour Tattoo Gel Cream eye shadow in Gold Rush

I like gold . So this time around I tried Maybelline's  gel cream eye  shadow in Gold Rush. I use my fingers to apply this eye shadow. It is a nice bright  gold colour . Perhaps I should get a shadow base. The colour stays on. It is easy to apply this eyeshadow.   The colour is  metallic  with bits of gold flakes.  It reminds me  of disco makeup.  There are other colours available.  There is a nice green colour .

Maybelline has come out with their own nude eye shadow palette . Maybelline products are easily  available nationwide . The normal price  of this eye shadow is RM 21.05. Since there is sales at the moment you can get  a better deal.
