Beauty Review: Majolica Majorca Lash King & Perfect Automatic Liner #36

Majolica Majorca is the makeup brand that I always wanted to try. 
I am so happy when I received 2 makeup products from Majolica Majorca for review.

Tadah, I received Majolica Majorca Lash King & Perfect Automatic Liner #36. The packaging is so pretty, I love it so much.

Let me start off with Perfect Automatic Liner #36.

Majolica Majorca Perfect Automatic Liner #36 (Limited Edition)

Retail price: $22.90

The water-based dial-type eye liner allows you to easily draw fine, delicate lines or thick, bold lines with its felt pen bristles. Entice with a shimmering pearl color on your eye line!

It is formulated with super fix polymer to give clear and long-lasting eye lines, which is very resistant to perspiration, skin oils and tears. 
Achieve dewy eyes by drawing on the lower lid or a shimmery effect by drawing on the upper lid.

How to use: 
Before using the eyeliner for the first time 
1. Pull out the pink stopper mounted between the cap and the eyeliner. 
2. Press the cap firmly towards the eyeliner completely until there is no gap. 
3. Shake well with the cap on. Remove the cap, gently flatten the edge of the felt-type eyeliner. 
4. Turn the dial about 10 times (10 clicks) before using it.

Before every subsequent use 
- Shake well with the cap on, remove the cap, and turn the dial about 1 or 2 times before using it. 

The brush is very soft and thin, easy to use. Remember to turn the dial so that the colour will come out.

My first pink eyeliner. The colour is pretty unique with shimmer in it.

I applied the automatic liner on my upper eyelid. It resembles glitter eye shadow.

My review:

Perfect Automatic Liner is easy to apply with the smooth and soft brush. The texture is kind of creamy and watery, hence it took awhile to dry up. The pink is very outstanding, I have never tried before pink eyeliner or even eye shadow. The eyeliner is long lasting, it does not smudge or fade away.

The eyeliner is waterproof. The colour still stayed on even after I washed my hand with water.

Majolica Majorca Lash King

Retail price: $25.90

With the newly formulated Lash King, you can achieve king-sized mesmerizing lashes with the 5mm super long fibers. It not only allows you to achieve maximum length, but also maximum volume and fullness with just a single coat. This waterproof formula is also very resistant to sweat, sebum and tears.

Formulated with creamy wax and an increased amount of volume-increasing powder for superb lash adhesion and a clump-free and smooth finishing touch. 

The acrobat catch brush coats the lashes evenly and ensures excellent lash catching and separation effect.

How to use: 
Starting from the roots, apply while lifting upwards, in a zigzag motion. 
For lower lashes, keep brush upright and apply while moving tip of brush sideways. 

See how long my lashes have become with application of 2 coats.

My review:

I am amazed by the lengthening effect of Lash King. It gives a gleaming and volumised effect to my lashes. My eye lashes have always been short. With the application of Lash King, my lashes have  become visible, long and defined. It keeps the shape of my lashes all day long and the fibers stay put. With the long lashes, I wouldn't need to apply fake eyelashes to enhance my eye makeup.

Majolica Majorca Lash King & Perfect Automatic Liner is available at Watsons stores from 26th June ’14 onwards.

Beauty Review: Lippy Girl Vegocentric Organic Vegan Lipsticks

Lipstick is yet another makeup product that women cannot do without.

It brings the beauty out of us, making us look attractive and achieve the desire look that we want.
Lipstick is now the latest beauty focus after the k drama show "My Love From Another Star"/"You Who Came from the Stars".

I had never placed much focus on my lip. But after watching the drama, I began to pay attention to the use of lipstick and started hunting for my lipstick collection.

That's when I found Lippy Girl Makeup.

Lippy Girl is a professional quality cosmetic for the earth hugging, animal loving, organic philanthropist at the heart of every fashionista. Their products and ingredients are not tested on animals and are natural, vegocentric and will never contain chemical preservatives, animal by products, GMOs or pesticides.

Lippy Girl's products are 100% paraben and butylene free. It is a PETA, PETA2 & HSI recognized brand.

Thank you Lippy Girl for sending me this lovely set for review. 
I love it very much.

Before applying lipstick, remember to apply lip conditioner to moisturise our lips so that it allows easy application of lipstick.

I am using Lippy Girl Power Pom.

As the name Power Pom suggested, it is a powerful healing punch for our lips! It moisturize, condition and smooth our lips, and we could feel the difference immediately. It has a sweet pomengranate flavor will have you loving your soft lips. 

Peta Approved Cruelty Free and Vegan Lip rejuvenation service.

I had gotten 3 vegocentric organic vegan lipsticks.

This premium line of amazing lipsticks are made with organic and wildcrafted, natural oils and waxes and only natural mineral pigments. 100% vegan, bee-free, gluten free and chemical free! These lippies are made with certified organic Castor Seed Oil, Jojoba seed oil, Carnauba Wax, and Shea Butter for the smoothest, creamiest finish, and super pigmented with natural minerals.

Vegocentrics are moisturing and long lasting, and will not bleed!

Lippy Girl Vegocentric Organic Vegan Lipstick is available in 12 different colours.

My pick for my top 3 favourite colours are:
4. Fancy Pants
5. Hotdiggity Yam (Limited Edition)
7. Rosey Posey (Limited Edition)

Vegocentric Lippies come in a bigger and better size of 5grams, and 100% recyclable aluminum tubes!

 Vegocentric lipsticks are simply the best vegan lipsticks available with no bees products or polybutene/petroleum. They are very soft and creamy.

Here's how the colour look like with 3 applications.

Which is your favourite?

For casual day out, I prefer to use Rosey Posey.

It gives a unique blend of deep red and pale pink.
The texture is creamy and does not dry out lips. It moisturises my lips, providing a matte finish.

During work day, I would go for Hot-Diggity-Yam.

Hot-Diggity-Yam gives a light rosy colour. It acts like a concealer to cover my peeling lips. After application, it gives a very natural look like the lipstick is barely there.

My favourite lipstick of all is Fancy Pants.

During days where I have dates or events, Fancy Pants lipstick would be my choice.

I like this coral pink lipstick because it gives a very sweet look. It contains more pigmentation, making my lips stand out against my skin.

Lippy Girl Vegocentric Organic Vegan Lipsticks allows my lips to stay hydrated and have the gorgeous smile.

LippyGirl uses Shea Butter, jojoba oil, canauba as firmer and lotsa wholesome ingredients for that lip nourishing feel and natural orange peel oil with no artificial fragrance. 

The colors follows the lastest in the fashion industry based on New York Fashion Week and the shades are never out-dated.

Review: Collection Cosmetics Primed And Ready Makeup Primer

Do you know that we should apply primer before putting on makeup?

Primer acts like a barrier between our skin and makeup so that they don't come in contact with one another. It allows foundation to be apply on easily and provide a natural finish.

Introducing you the primer that I am using currently:
Collection Cosmetics Primed And Ready Makeup Primer.

Primer is the first step to applying makeup as it smooths our skin surface and prep our face for next application. 

The silky formula provides a light coverage for a flawless complexion and a noticeably natural finish. 
A soothing makeup base, it minimizes pore problems, smoothes uneven skin and hides unsightly blemishes for the perfect base.

Collection Cosmetics Primed And Ready Makeup Primer can be wear alone or under foundation for a flawless complexion.

After our usual skincare routine, apply the primer on our skin. After which, you can then add on BB cream or foundation.

A photo of me before and after applying the primer.

My review:

After application, I could feel that my skin has become smoother in texture. The primer is light weighted, it feels that it is barely there. Although the coverage is very mild, it helps to brighten up my face, reduce the redness of my sensitive skin and minimises my enlarged pores, giving it a very natural finish.

It also helps in oil control, allowing long lasting makeup.

Collection Cosmetics Primed And Ready Makeup Primer is available in selected Watsons stores, BHG, the newly renovated BHG Bugis and Collection pop-up store in Cineleisure, Level 2.

Retail price - $16.90

BeautyBiotics Launch - Intelligent Skin Caring Cosmetics

Living in today's modern society, do you know what type of beauty routine does a modern woman need?

Living in a fast-paced country like Singapore, time is very precious to all of us. We need a beauty routine that allow us to use as little time as possible to get ourselves ready to welcome the day.

Inspired by the modern lifestyle led by today's busy women, BeautyBiotics was created to simplify the beauty routine. This new generation of intelligent dermatological cosmetics contain efficient formulas that multitask as well as modern savvy women do. Beauty Biotics delivers innovative clinically proven ingredient technologies that take on a number of healthy skincare benefits while remaining kind to your skin. 

It is time to get smart on your beauty routine.

I was being introduced to BeautyBiotics at their product launch which was held at ION Sky.

BeautyBiotics is a new range of skin-caring and dermatologically tested cosmetics that has finally hit the beauty product shelves in Singapore. 

BeautyBiotics is positioned as an intelligent beauty aid to offer advanced anti-aging beauty care that aims to target common skin concerns such as hydration, whitening, and minimizing fine lines and wrinkles.

BeautyBiotics is endorsed by Mediacorp Actress Paige Chua and is an Innovation x Science based skin care that doubles as a skin care and make up range with all-in-one benefits.

I always love coming to ION Sky because it offers a 360-degree view of Singapore and stunning cityscape.

GF and I were one of the early birds to reach.

With GF and William. 
We got ourselves settled down for the presentation.

To kick off its brand launch, BeautyBiotics is introducing its five powerhouse products:

Makeup range
 – BB/CC Cream
 – BB + Nano Luminescence Mineral Pearl Powder
 – UV White Nano Mineral Powder

All three have the common properties of being ultra lightweight makeup with powerful, hydration and sun protection factors. 

Skin care range
– Exfoliating Jelly
– Collagen Cleanse 

They are designed to encourage skin cell regeneration and restoration of skin radiance instantly after each cleanse.

All the audience were listening attentively. We were amazed by the new generation of intelligent skin caring cosmetics. Every product by BeautyBiotics is dermatologist tested and suitable for sensitive skin types.

Collagen Cleanse

 The Collagen Cleanse Regeneration Daily Facial Cleanser boosts a unique water activated crystal formulation that releases Nano-Collagen into your skin. 

The cleanser comes first in a powdered form, which is then turned into a foaming cleanser when mixed with water. The foam particles created by the Collagen Cleanse are so fine that they can thoroughly remove impurities from the pores, yet the release of Nano-Collagen keeps the skin well hydrated. 

The end result - every time you cleanse, you help your skin to regenerate its collagen and elastin, leaving it deeply cleansed without stripping its natural oils. 

Retail price: SGD$43.00

Exfoliating Jelly

The Exfoliating Jelly is an advanced enzymatic facial peel that gently exfoliates thanks to its fruit-derived AHA + BHA enzymes, restoring clarity and newfound luminosity to skin. Each massaging motion lifts away dead skin cells to reveal the radiant youthful skin beneath, preparing skin to absorb nutrients fully. 

This dermatologically formulated peel is gentle on skin, so your skin enjoys the benefits of a facial peel minus the irritation or downtime. 

Retail price: SGD$43.00

BB/CC Cream.

A hardworking multi-tasker, the BB/CC Cream boasts a 12 Benefits-In-One advanced formula that not only has skin whitening properties, but also good coverage and long lasting hydration for up to 12 hours. In addition, the BB/CC Cream serves as a sunscreen with a broad spectrum SPF 40/PA+++. With the BB/CC Cream, wearing makeup and skincare is no longer a multi-step process because all one needs is a single application of the BB/CC Cream. 

It is available in 3 shades - Natural, Light and Shimmer.

Retail price: SGD$39.00

BB+ Nano Luminescence Mineral Pearl Powder

The BB+ Nano Luminescence Mineral Pearl Powder is a perfecting powder formulated with Nano technology to deliver nourishing nutrients into the skin’s deeper layers. 

The airy formulation consists of nanonized light-diffusing pearl crystals that soften the way light falls on skin to minimize fine lines, provide long lasting coverage of pores as well as other skin imperfections. The result, youthful coverage is achieved while still maintaining skin’s luminosity. In addition, the BB+ Nano Luminescence Mineral Pearl Powder is also a powder with all the skin care benefits of a cream. It hugs skin to infuse a rich skincare concoction of Nano Collagen, Pearl Powder, Ceramide and Hyaluronic Acid, which help to repair, regenerate and hydrate skin. 

It is available in 2 shades - Matte and Shimmer.

Retail price: $45.00

UV White Nano Mineral Powder

Another one of BeautyBiotics’ multitasking hard workers, the UV White mineral powder is an intelligently created powder that provides sun protection of up to SPF 50/PA+++, and an effective whitening treatment with its whitening Nano mineral powder ingredients. The best part of the UV White powder is that it is a very lightweight, easy to apply powder that comes in a nifty compact container and sponge applicator. It is definitely a more convenient alternative to the usual thick and sticky sunscreens we have currently. 

In addition, the UV White Nano Mineral powder has Nano-collagen, Hyaluronic Acid and Alpha Arbutin skin nutrients that infuse into skin continuously, helping skin regenerate, reduce pigmentation and lighten dark spots. So just like the modern woman today, the UV White Nano Mineral Powder plays multiple roles of skin tone correcting makeup, sun protector, skin whitener, and repairing skin care. 

Retail price: $49.00

Celebrity makeup artist Clarence Lee was here to share with us about her review after using BeautyBiotics. 

Clarence is a big advocate of fresh and natural looking make up. The makeup in BeautyBiotics makes him feel so lightweight and is easy to apply. They contain skin caring benefits like hydration and sun protection in its advanced formula. 

Clarence also did a makeup demonstration using BeautyBiotics' products, sharing us how to create a fuss-free look in 5 minutes.

All of BeautyBiotics’ products have been formulated through an extensive scientific research and development process in Japan. It adopts a no-nonsense, intelligent and focused solution for our skin’s needs, which is translated through its minimalist and clinical packaging.

After the presentation, we helped ourselves with the refreshment.

We also received a gift from BeautyBiotics.
Are you feeling excited to find out what is it inside?

Follow William as he unwrapped the gift.

Tadaa, we got the full range of Dream Cream series. I will be reviewing the products very soon, please come and visit my site again.
