Hey guys!
Today I’m going to be doing the best beauty products of the year which
everybody in the beauty blogosphere are doing so I’m joining in the fun too. I
do have a lot of favourites this year from all categories therefore I’ll try to
make it short and sweet with lots of pictures. These products have entered my
Holy Grail list which I almost use it every day now and I highly recommend
everyone to try it out.
I’ve linked
the titles directly to the specific review so do not hesitate to click on them
to read the entire review. Detailed information such as their price, where I got
them, pros & cons of the item are all written there.
I’m pretty sure
this was one of my latest reviewed product. I have been using it almost every day
since I got it. For girls whose hair turns greasy easily, this is the product
for you. The powder is very fine and it soaks up all the oils. The hair looks significantly
less oily and they are very affordable. Highly recommend it!
Avene Thermal Spring Water
I can’t
believe I haven’t done a post on this yet. I’ve been using it for months now
and I really love it. I have tried other brands of thermal water such as the
Vichy and La Roche Posay ones. To be honest, I like the Avene one above all. I
find myself reaching out to it more often and I really like how it makes my
skin feel refreshed and plumped. It’s like I had my mask on for 20 minutes but
the effects are instant. Love it!
You guys
already know I’m a lazy person and this liquid eyeliner is a no hassle,
twist-and-draw kind of product. It stays for good amount of time and it is very
opaque. I find myself reaching this more than my MAC black track fluidline. They
are often on sale, so at SGD$12-16, I do find them affordable. Most of Majolica
Majorca products that I bought did not disappoint me so I’ll sure be purchasing
more products from their brand.
This is
still the only mascara I use and swear by. This mascara is great for holding up
curls and lengthening. It defines every lash and the fibres add to the length
of the natural lashes. The formula is very opaque black and extremely water
resistant. It does not smudge under my eyes at all. The only downside is that
it does not volumize the lashes and the removal of this mascara is always a
pain in the butt.
MAC Dame Satin Powder Blush
I love this
blush so much! Dame is an everyday colour and matches with every makeup or
clothes I’m wearing. I would consider it a straight up pink that is warmer and
more pigmented than Well-dressed. It just gives my face a natural pink flush
that looks really adorable especially for fairer skin tones. MAC blushes are
very pigmented so do use a light hand. I highly recommend this colour if you
looking for an everyday shade to wear.
I know this
sounds stupid but I really do not know if the brand is Bifesta or Mandom. I
think they rebranded the original brand Mandom to Bifesta, but I’m really not
sure. If you guys know what exact name it is, do tell me because I’m getting so
confused with all the names. In my opinion, I think it removes makeup like a
dream, easy to use, cheap, readily available and it does not break me out. I
gone through bottles and bottles of them, it is crazy.
If you have
lost all hopes in Acne treatment creams, try this out. At only 4 bucks, you
have nothing to lose. This product is cheap and works pretty well compared to
other pimple creams such as Clinique or Clearasil that cost more and stings the
wound. I don’t find my pimples disappearing after 1 night but I do reach for
this pimple cream a lot. The texture is very similar to Proactiv’s Refining Mask
which has a clay-like texture. I use the Acne Clear pimple cream at night
because most of my pimples form during my sleep. Sneaky zits!
In the 2011 I dyed my hair jet black and urgently needed a grey or taupe eyebrow
pencil. I stopped dying my hair because my hair was noticeably dry, frizzy and
my hair fell out more easily. I only had brown eyebrow pencils, eyebrow powder then,
so I was on a mission to find my ideal taupe eyebrow pencil. I have been using
this eyebrow pencil the entire year. It works great and the colour fits my
criteria exactly. You do need to use a light hand when using this though. It is
very affordable and travel friendly.
If you have
redness or scars to cover, try the Urban decay concealer pencil out! It blends
like a dream and is so much creamier than thick concealers such as the MAC
studio finish concealer. The formula looks extremely natural and covers blemishes
really well. I find such concealers prone to caking on blemishes due to the
thick consistency but with this concealer, the dryness is not very noticeable.
That’s all
of my favourites for the year of 2011 and I do hope more to come by this year!
Hope you all have a great weekend ahead!
Love,
