My Current Bronzer

I used to reserve bronzer use for when I need to be totally glammed up but when I saw Michelle Phan’s video saying that she always uses bronzers to give her face some definition, I started to examine my face as well. I found out that yes, my face seems kinda flat and blah looking without some contouring so I decided to add bronzers to my regular makeup routine.

I just finished one NARS bronzer (more on that soon) and now I’m using this:

This is actually The Multiple in South Beach. This is from the NARS15 palette. Here is a swatch:

On the left is a regular swatch. The one on the right is blended out. This is the perfect summer bronzer for me. It has a bit of shimmer to add a bit of glow to my pale skin. (I’ve been stuck at home far too long.) I wore this last week when I went to the doctor’s office and I looked healthy.

As it is NARS, you can expect the quality to be topnotch. It lasted the whole time I was out, longer than my eye shadows (Clinique). I just really wish they had better packaging.

All About Eyes

Lately I’m finding myself obsessed with skin care products, prevention in particular. I'm not getting younger and nobody likes lines and wrinkles, right? I should have done this in my early twenties but those were hard times and we didn’t have enough to support our daily lives, let alone vanity splurges. So now, I’m on hyper mode. I did not place any expectations on this product. I’ve had it with products claiming they can do this and that. I just tried the product thinking that if it works then great, if not then I’ll just find a new one. I wasn’t expecting a dramatic change but 2 weeks into using this product, I noticed that my under eye area has become lighter. The lines are also not as deep as they were before I used this product. I stopped using the Garnier eye products because I’m allergic to them so that means I’m not using any whitening products for that area. I am truly impressed with this product. I didn’t take a before and after photo as I wasn’t expecting this at ...

Alone Time

My good friend Kitten and I were supposed to go out yesterday but she had some unexpected things come up. I needed to buy some stuff as I am packing for a trip and so I went alone. I actually enjoy going out alone as much as going out with girlfriends or MB. It gives me a chance to eat whatever I like to eat and explore new restos. It’s also nice to take my time when shopping. After paying my bills, I had a late lunch at Toast Box: I love Hainanese Chicken. I sometimes cook this dish but it’s too tedious so I settle for eating out. I’m so happy that there are now restaurants that serve proper Hainanese Chicken. Well, except that one above was sooooo bloody. It was swimming in blood when I pulled the meat apart so I had it changed. You know what Gordon Ramsay says, bloody chicken is poisonous. This is the second time I ate at Toast Box and in both times, the chicken was so bloody. After lunch, I started shopping. First stop was Beabi where I bought these: The Sakura thermos on...
