mineral foundie

Happy Eid Fitr to everyone. May God bless you all x)

during this quite short eid-fitr holiday, i've been hardly spent my time on sephora.com. at first i only wanted to look around, but it ended up in deep confusion on whether i should give mineral make up a second chance or not.

i once used this mineral make up *but i can't tell which brand hehehe*, but my skin broke out. uhuhu, well, til now i'm not sure whether it was caused by hormone imbalance, my allergy to bismuth oxychloride, or the texture of the free kabuki brush that is a bit rough *and too bad i hardly washed it* hehehe.

well well, maye i'd rather stick to my conventional loose powder.. i can't stand the risk.. haha, enuff said. the girls at lancome have this gorgeous skin... so, i don't want to make the disparity any further. haha.

ohya, i also found many MANY eye candies there. Cutie eye shadow palettes from Tarte, Too Faced, and Sephora. very berry cute packaging. but again, i don't think i'd buy them because first I don;t know whether if they have rich pigment. Second, I am waiting for Lancome's Declaring Indigo palette in Or Liberte to be launched here in Indonesia *crossing fingers, hope it would be happening soon*

but really, i love the packaging. Especially this studded eyeshadow palette from Tarte (Courtesy: sephora.com). Cute rite, looked like clutch bag. Maybe I'll make myself make up pouch that looked like this cutie hehehe

random facts:

  2. i love udon udon udon and any other kind of noodle or pastas. i always wish that ind*mie one day would produce an msg-free version of its superb noodle product.
  3. i love the fact i can write for magazines eventhou i don't work for a magazine
  4. dreams do come true, even my silly milly dream for an eyeliner that could be applied like the way i applied marker or felt tip pen. yes yes, i found this liner design from lancome, a fool-proof eyeliner that is suitable for people like moi, who always want make up to have big impact with such low effort hehe. well, the colour is not as opa
