A Steamy Affair + Review/LOTD: Chanel Illusoire

I shall start off with the review/LOTD of Chanel Illusion d’Ombre Long-Wear Luminous Eyeshadow 83 Illusoire. One of my favorite buys so far. A truly stellar product; I'm head over heels. Given the high price tag ($52 a pop), I do expect more. Well, I'm glad that it live up to my somewhat high expectations. *happy* ^.^v

Nicely pigmented and good color payoff. I applied 2 layers to achieve this look. To blend, I use fingers. I love using my fingers to do makeup ♥ The mousse-like texture is easy to layer (no cakiness) and blend. To achieve a more intense look, you can always add more layers or layer Illusoire over a dark-colored base.

I did use the brush included, for lining the lower lashline. A pretty good quality one. The brush bristles are soft and don't feel scratchy. Hmm.. I think it's a lil' tiny to use for blending?

Illusoire is such a stunning beauty on its own. See how beautifully it glistens.. ♥ x infinity

Last for a good 8 hours at least. Minimal fading and creasing, which is not that obvious anyway. I didn't use any eye primer.

An elegant shimmery finish. It's Chanel afterall. Illusoire is a versatile color which certainly flatters most skin colors.

My lil' haul from Japan, thanks to Christie (Redberry) ♥

Last Friday, I met up with Christie and her baby boy to collect my lil' haul from Japan. And, the best part she managed to get 'em within my budget of $150 ! $149 well spent, indeed. Thank you so much for helping me snap up these lovely goodies ♥ I'm pretty sure I'll enjoy using 'em as much as you do (:

Baby was sick, which explains his frowns. Hope he's alright now =.= Btw, we were at TCC (Suntec) for a quick coffee fix. Christie's being so nice to me (again), paying the bill. Ah she's such a darling yea (:

Baby didn't wanna take photo with me :,(

The last time I saw Baby, he was super bubbly. CLICK HERE

We had a nice time catching up. Baby's mood became much better when we were about to part our ways =.= I had the privilege of carrying him for a short while (super happy can !) Hopefully, Baby will be his usual happy self the next time I see him (after BKK trip) ♥

Imagine how happy I was when I saw these ! ♥ Integrate & Lavshuca ♥

Ooo my first Integrate babies (lipstick, eyeshadow palettes, blusher) ! FYI, I own Lavshuca liquid foundation & lipgloss. These will be my first blusher & eyeshadows though (;

Shall not go into details for now. Any questions, feel free to ask me. Stay tuned for my super collective haul posts ♥
