A quick revisit



Hola everyone, just wanted to do a quick re-review on some items I bought a while ago and has been using.

Bobbi Brown gel eyeliner
THE BEST eyeliner I have ever used. I used this last Friday while cleaning out our office container (big metal things that people store all sorts of shit inside) and sweated crazily under the hot sun and guess what, my eyeliner did not move an inch. Ahh me love love!

Deja Vu Lash Knockout
I would personally like a bat to knock this baby to the nearest dust bin. Wasn't all that great, hard to wash off, no volumising effect, no lengthening effect. Been using this for over a month and I'm still hating it. BOOOOO!

Etude House Precious Mineral make up essence
I LOVED the Etude House Precious Mineral BB cream but I absolutely hate this. This was given to me by my colleague with about 30% left *point to picture*, tried it and hated it. It makes our face oily. Not dewy, mind you but oily, even the driest foundation starts to slick off after a while and streak all over. It doesn't make the face glowing or anything fancy, it just makes our make up 'float' above our skin and after a while melts off. Gross.

Maybelline Magnum
Almost finish and I guess it really ain't too bad. Believe it or not, it's easier to wash off than the Deja Vu Lash Knockout and the Deja Vu one was suppose to be removed with just warm water. Many bloggers has claimed to like the Magnum better than the Collosal but I'll remain with my own verdict. The Magnum is good but I love the Collosal more. I don't have a lot of lashes and they are short but if given a choice of either volume and length, I'll always go for volume and there's where I differ from others.

Fasio Eyelash Primer
Forgotten the exact name since it has rubbed off from the sides. Loving this and it's finished. *sniff* It does make our mascara slightly harder to wash off but the effect is worth it. It's not heavy enough to weigh your lashes down,

NYX Long Pencil Liner
I'm taking this off my 'to sell list'. I have only used it for about a month and if you look closely, it's REALLY short, That's because I got a bad batch and all the eyeliner on the inside is 85% broken. I sharped it and it broke horribly. I used the proper eye pencil sharpeners and not just any sharpener and still it broke.

It's a good eyeliner because it's black enough and medium cream and doesn't really make me smudge but it broke so badly that I'll be ashamed if anyone bought it and went thru what I did.

Revlon Liquid Eyeliner
So far so good. I like the brush. It can run a little and smudge a little tiny bit but other than that it doesn't go MIA on me even after 6 hours.

Majolica Majora Pore something or another
If it wasn't for the casing, this would have gone flying as well. It's chalky. Not smooth and will probably only work if your face is starting to be so oily it's reflecting the sun. *Ahem* In simpler words, it'll probably work if you want to powder your oily nose. Don't use this to set your make up. It wasn't made for that, me thinks. Don't try to be as smart as me.

Victoria Secret Very sexy duo eyeliner
It belong in the rubbish bin. Enough said.

*This opinions are entirely my own and don't sue me just because I don't like some of the products. I R Poor.

I'm not sure I get the difference between Maybelline Magnum and The Colossal... the packaging looks the same... and I have not seen Magnum where I live 0=

Oh yes, I love Collosal and Magnum by Maybelline *__*. When I bought it I wasn't optimistic at all but finally what a good surprise!

Nice batch of products.

I've only used the Majolica powder and do like it - think it's the same but the case is white. I use it to touch up during the day but not when putting on makeup. It looks scary white but doesn't go on that scary :)

Want to try the Bobbi Brown gel eyeliner, heard lots of raves about it.

Jen said...

Ah Bobbi (i almost typed Boobie lol) Brown eyeliner. My first and still fave gel eyeliner!

Good to know about the Deja Vu mascara. A lot of people swear by the other one in the red packaging though.
