Highlight of the week - Too Faced Face Primer

Since there's a 25% discount for university students on ASOS last week, therefore I purchased quite a lot of good stuff from ASOS [ASOS stop offering me discounts.. Or else I won't have enough money to buy flight tickets to go home lol]
So I bought this 'Too Faced Primed & Poreless Pure Oil-free Skin Smoothing Face Primer for sensitive skin'  which I have wanted for quite a while at £18! SUCH A BARGAIN! In ASOS, it said that this product is exclusively sold in ASOS which I couldn't get in Boots or so.
As I have used the eyeshadow insurance from Too Faced for 2 years, I understand how consistent their products are. So I tried this primer since Sunday.. wooohooo it's really good, kinda comparable to the Pore Professional by Benefit Cosmetics :)
I have mixed skin type which I have an oily t-zone area but dry cheek area which sucks when putting on foundation, I always appear to be super oily on picture because of this. But with this primer, the oily nose disappeared! After wearing this primer for 8 hours with my Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua foundation on, my face still looked like the state when I just applied makeup on, so matte <3 ! Tried this primer in different weather, both humid and dry, it's still worked super good on me :) Aww simply love it! Time to trash my Shu uemura primer.. :P

Here is the picture of the primer.

Love the packaging, so princessy :)

NOTD: Korres

My first Korres High shine/ long-lasting nail polish [45 Coral]

I love coral colours so much and have a few coral nail polishes.. AND this is the brightest coral colour I have ever own. 

Let's talk about the consistency of this polish, quite good, the brush takes up quite a lot of product actually.. but the amount is good enough for one nail. The brush is quite soft and not too flat which you can paint your nails fully with a few swipes. I think the coverage is awesome, for one coat, you can already see a really opaque coverage. I applied one more coat as I wanted my nails to look more shiny, haha. I really think this nail polish is quite worth-buying as it is only £4.50 on ASOS :)

I applied 'Models Own' 3 in 1 top/base coat, 2 coats of Korres Coral and finished with 'Models Own' top/base coat.

How the bottle looks like..

The color code :)

Highlight of the week - NARS

I planned to do a weekly post on my 'highlight of the week' starting from today! The highlight can be a beauty product, a cosmetic product, nice snack... just something amazing I discover in a week :)

So here you go my first post of highlight of the week -

NARS  Skin Luminous Moisture Cream

Recently, I have bought a eyeshadow palette from Nars and was given a sample of this luminous moisture cream as a complementary gift. So, I started using it as my night cream.. oh my god it's super moisturizing! My skin still felt hydrated after a night's sleep with radiator on! The texture is quite thick but during application, it applies on smoothly and you will not feel greasy afterwards :)

Here's the picture of the cream...

Swatch of the cream...

I am loving this product a lot, will probably purchase a full size of this after finishing my current night cream!

Sunday brunch

Had a brunch in a cafe in a random place around the place I live, and it was surprisingly amazing! Bacon + egg + mush + toasts = yumm<3
Actually no matter how bad this brunch tasted, having meals with your love is always the best!

My preferences: EyeBrows!

I used to hate my thick brows 'cause it's so thick and dark but after the K-POP influence, girls start to have thicker brows now! (which is good for me hahaa) I am always looking for high quality and high consistency brow makeup to fill my tiny gap at the end of my brows.. Here are some products I have used so far and I really like it :)

KATE Brow Powder [Ex-5]

I have used the same palette for over a year and it still hasn't hit pan! (I almost use this every day) I normally mix the 2 dark shades to fill in my gaps and sometimes, the lightest shade to contour the bridge of my nose. The mini brush attached in this palette is quite good actually, the hair is not too soft nor hard which is good for filling in your brows :)

shu uemura Brow Pencil [03]

This is my first brown pencil I've ever own and I like this a lot too! There is a special shape of this pencil (not shown in this photo unfortunately :/ ) which makes drawing your brows so easy! But for me, I must use a brow brush to blend my brows afterwards, or else it the lines are going to be too harsh for my brows.. I think it suits darker brown hair or hair with red under tone :)

Colour My Brows by Etude House [01]

I bought this brow gel simply because of the brand lol I like Sandara Park from 2NE1 a lot..and she's the spokeperson of this brand so I just get it to 'support' her lol..

However, this product is totally out of my expectation! The color consistency is quite high, very water proof (but you can easily remove it with makeup remover!) and high pigmented. But it dries out quite quickly.. which sucks cause I can't really get these in the UK! : (

And recently, I read 'Stylesuzi's blogpost and I think I am gonna try the Brow Perfect from Look Beauty! It looks quite amazing as it's only 12 pounds but with brow gel, a mini tweezer and an assortment of shades to fill your brows.. so I don't really have to get new brow products whenever I change my hair color! The other netural shades are good for eyeshadow/eyeliner as well :) Can't wait to try it out!

What do you use to color your brows?

Ohmygod, I haven't blogged since I graduated from secondary school.. I'm picking this up as I want to have a space to share my life, my favourites and special moments after I turned twenty.

People always said 20 is another stage of a girl's life, and I'd love to record moments of my life here, showing people my new stage of life. :) x
