revew- top secret from YSL

TOP SECRETS
Flash Radiance Skincare Brush

got a sample of it from YSL workshop( http://akikichoo.blogspot.com/2009/03/review-ysl-make-up-workshop.html ) last year.

description from the net:

With a single brush stroke, signs of fatigue are erased, and skin is left feeling velvety smooth and fresh with radiance! This high-performance formula combines all the benefits of a skincare product with the precision and ease of a brush, the silky and comfortable texture glides over the skin, leaving it feeling incredibly fresh and invigorated.

A blend of energizing active ingredients combine the Grain of Paradise extract with caffeine to erase signs of fatigue. On the skin’s surface, light-reflecting micro-pigments are able to capture and diffuse light, to reduce skin imperfections and boost radiance. A seaweed derived sugar forms a veil that maintains moisture on the surface of the skin and protects it against external threats. Wheat proteins combined with sugar extracted from oats and a silcon elastomer allow for the formula to quickly smooth fine lines, leaving it feeling soft and velvety.

Allow 2 minutes after applying before beginning your make up routine

My thought :

the texture is waterly which is good for blending.
not scented.

However, I did not really feel any good or bad of it.

Will not repurchase is as nothing special result for me

review- 3333 lip balm from Acca Kappa

Bought 2 of this during last Christmas shopping.

3333 LIP BALMS SPF 30


description from their site :

3333 LIP BALMS SPF 30

Acca Kappa has formulated this new protective lip balm with SPF30 to provide you with intensive protection to keep your lips soft and supple and to provide moisture to prevent dryness. It provides the optimal level of screening for the suns UVA and UVB rays and ensures a high level of protection for the lips. 0,18 fl. oz.

Like :
  • SPF 30
  • travel friendly
  • nice smell like butter+vaseline(??)
  • moisturised
Dislike:
  • the balm is too soft which makes the container very dirty
  • hard to apply(I used finger) as it is too soft
  • melt easily in hot surrounding
  • it is white colour (show on the lips)
  • pricey, compare to some brands




I will not repurchade it as it is too soft to be used and traveled around.

RM 25~RM 29 per lip balm.
Available at One Utama(u can collectt one card point), Pavilion....

I tried their solid perfume-rose and it was good!
nice scent and is lasting.
gonna buy it some day(not now)

Btw, I was eligible to become their member and filled the form. The 1u's SA said she'll call me when the card is ready but I get no call till now!!!!!!!
what's wrong?????

review: shu uemura mascara


Bought it a while ago

photos from net and so did the description
:
Ultimate Expression Mascara

What it is:A multifunctional, creamy, textured mascara for ultimate volume and length, with spectacular curl.


What it does:
Shu Uemura Ultimate Expression Mascara is a revolutionary mascara formulated to make lashes full and highly defined. It's designed with a unique curl-fixing effect, an ergonomic brush, professionally angled at eight degrees to deliver maximum curl and long-wearing properties, and a professional, clean, smudge-proof finish.

Like:
  • simple packaging
  • non-scentes
  • lengthen
  • hold curl
Dislike :
  • does not give volume
  • mine dried up fast
  • pricey ,compare o my fav mascara
I will not purchase it again as I can get better mascara with lower price
