LOTD: Sun-kissed

june is the hottest month of the year, yes ? well, singapore is a all-time summer island.. so we practically get sun-kissed every other day. i don't really like the sun, seriously. i tanned very easily that's why. oh, wanted to show you lovelies my "sun-kissed" LOTD without having to go under the scorching hot sun to achieve this look.

here is the faceshop bb cream i used. i bought this online from my all-time favourite korean makeup store, koreabb. anyway, i'm not paid to introduce this online store to y'all. how i wish i was.. :p hahas kidding. this is one of the expensive bb creams i bought i think. $37.91 after vip discount. yes, i spent that much to become vip (or maybe not that much ? $140 1st one-time purchase) btw it's oos now but no worries, you can always preorder.

Flebeaute White Crystal BB Cream SPF 35PA++, 35ml

Dual formula of  brightening serum and lifting complexion enhancer for youthful, even-toned skin.

Potent skin brightening serum with White Pine, Nopal & SepiWhite brightens and lightens skin tone while lifting complexion enhancer with Saffron, Niacinamide and Gingko lifts and firms. A blend of 7 organic herbs and naturally sourced moisture grabbing high polymer retain moisture for a boost of energy and lucid glow.

as seen from the picture, this bb cream is clearly more suitable for ladies with fairer complexions. this is kind of fair on me but i'll make it work for me somehow lol. i like the faint floral smell though :p

this is swatches of the sana new born lasting w brow LB3 i recently bought from sasa. above is the brush-tip side, while bottom is the pencil lead side. however, i feel that it's not light enough for my eyebrows.

i still need to use shu uemura eyebrow manicure 02 tawny gold to lighten my eyebrows. finally, a swatch of how this shade looks like.

maybelline perfect concealer 01 & stage picture perfect liquid camouflage 03 pixie doll. PERFECT C: used both as the maybelline one is abit fair for me.

shu uemura face powder matte (shimmery), stila sun highlighter & palgantong makeup theatrical powder.


oh, i used the stila sun highlighter as eyeshadow as well. it's that pigmented.

a more close-up picture (:

no eyeliners & mascara used as yet.

i like this eye palette, seriously. go get this from ta zhiang ! i've used the white, beige & brown so far & it's really pigmented without even using eye primer !

for mascara wise, i used covergirl lash blast. very black right ? i like :p

i used my favourite stage broadway brown eyeliner & kiss me heroine make smooth liquid eyeliner !

i think if you were to use fake lashes, the effect will be better ? (:

mac instant chic to finish up the look ! nude lips is a must ! there is nothing on my lips as seen as these pictures were taken after i reach home.

last two camwhore pictures to round up this entry !

do you like to be sun-kissed ? heez~ :p

  9. chantana, overall the powder was average imo.. suitable for ladies with fair complexion (ahems).. oil control was not as fantastic as it claims but still considered ok.. don't apply too much though or will look like wayang -_-" as for the bb cream, it's not that thick actually.. hmm still need concealer to conceal flaws.. it brightens up my complexion somehow..

  13. I'm really undecided on trying the Flebeaute White Crystal BB Cream, it sounds great but the price is a deterrent. Your skin looks beautiful! Sorry to comment on an old post but do you know how the Flebeaute compares in colour to the Missha Perfect Cover BB Cream in 13, is it darker?

  14. Hi, thanks for the lovely compliment! If you've really fair skin, this will suit you. The oil control is not very good though. If you've oily skin, you might wanna skip this. I do agree the price is not exactly friendly. I love to have comments coming in, so no worries about that (:

    I've Missha Perfect Cover BB Cream in 21, not 13 though. I googled online and chanced upon this: http://veryshortstory.blogspot.com/2011/09/missha-perfect-cover-bb-cream-13-milky.html

    I think the shade is comparable? coz the lady's got really fair skin.. And btw, I prefer the Missha one personally. It's really awesome!
