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!
