D'Herb's Aura Pesona Bintang two way cake powder




Since I use Deherb's foundation cream , I decided to buy their  face powder in the brown case. The powder comes in two colours , natural and mocha. I chose natural . The colour is beige but if you swatch it on your hand it  is quite yellow. It is suitable for medium to fair skin. I used it when I went to my nephew's dinner last two weeks. This powder does make you look flawless and smooth. More if you use it with the Diamond foundation.
The price of this two way cake is RM 36.00. You can order it online here or at Jamu stores across the nation.

Vatika Almond enriched hair oil




This is a hair oil my mother  bought in Madinah. I have not gone to Haniffa store near Jalan Masjid India to see whether this hair oil is available there . This oil contains the extract of almond , coconut and sesame oil  . It's formulation helps to soften , moisturize and condition the hair . This is for rough and dull hair because of colouring and hard combing .
I use this oil twice or once a week. It is good. I am all into oiling my hair . I have long hair now nearly until the back of of my body. Today I have two large pimples . One has dried and another big one is near my chin.  Perhaps it is because  I mix different creams , stress or coffee. 
This hair oil is in a 300 ml bottle . It will expire in 2018 so I have a  year to finish it. The price of this hair oil is SAR 12.00.

Chanel Rouge Velvet Allure in 34 La Raffinee






When we went to Mecca to perform Umrah , my sister Yatie made a surprise visit . So she came with Nas and the children. We were happy to see them.   My sister gave me this lipstick from Chanel  . You need to press the gold top and the lipstick will come out . This is another  beautiful nude colour lipstick . It's more towards a pink mauve colour  . It has a 18 months expiry time so I have some time to play with this lipstick . I am not sure about the price . It could be around RM 102 or slightly more.

Pure Skin Papaya cream



Last month my parents and I went to Madinah and Mecca to perform Umrah. My dear sisters sponsored the three of us. We stayed in my brother's house in Madinah. His house is near the Kiblatain mosque. My father likes to go to  the markets and sundry shops . Near to  a market is a spice shop . They have a small mill if you wish to mix your spices. The shop is called Mawarni. Mawar is rose in Malay. I bought a Vatika hair oil and a face cream.
This face cream is an exfoliating face cream . Some of the natural ingredients are Carica papaya enzyme ,black cumin or Habatus sauda and shea butter. You need to use a generous amount of this cream on the face and massage the area. I am happy with this cream. I came to Madinah with a large pimple. So far after 24 days my pimple is gone . There are no more pimples appearing, and  I am happy for that.
This cream is made by Pure Skin International Company in Markina City Phillipines. It is specially made for Najmat Al Mufeedh Trading Est .It is in 50 grm plastic jar . Some of blemishes on my face are gone . Perhaps it's time to go for a facial.       The price of this cream is SAR 15.00.

Now Avocado oil



I bought this oil because my mother wanted avocado oil  to make a hair oil . My mother has  long hair after she is  70 years old . Now she is really into oiling her hair . I need to use henna again  . We needed some olive oil  , almond oil, coconut oil and avocado oil to make the hair oil.
There is a recipe  from the  Mingguan Wanita magazine. Avocado is good for aging skin so  I read . Then I made a face oil using 40 ml of Avocado oil with 10 drops each of Frankincence and Patchouli oil. I did not buy more essential oil because I don't know when I will be bored with face oil. Should I buy  a ready made face oil or buy more  essential oils  and experiment  ?  I have used the oil for my hair . I bought this oil from Renee's cottage at Lelong.com . The price is RM 36.00.

Nars All Day Luminous Weightless Foundation





As I have written before , my niece wanted to look at Nars products. She was looking at the eye shadows.  The sales assistant suggested   their new foundation . The All Day Luminous Weightless foundation. I was matched with Santa Fe and Fiji. 
So Fiji  was the colour. This is lighter and more yellow  than Syracuse. This foundation is a gift from my sisters Nas and Yatie. You need to shake the glass bottle before you use the foundation. At the back of the box it was  suggested that you use one pump  on your palm .And then you warm the foundation  and spread the foundation with your fingers. The colour is beautiful.I like this foundation, This is my second foundation from Nars. I have not bought any of their makeup products yet. Nars has opened their stores in KLCC and Mid Valley . I wonder when they will open their new store near One Utama. The price of this foundation is RM 180 at the Pavillion store.
