[Sponsored Review] Ailin Foundation stick 331/132 and Baby Queen 501




Hello again!
If you can tell (which you probably can't because I like to stick to pink/peach) my layout changed just a tadddd~ I kinda wanted to go for a whole new look...but decided against it, haha.

Anyways! I bring you a long overdue review!

The products were graciously sponsored to me by KKCENTERHK to keep me blogging! (Because if I didn't have reviews to do..I'd probably not blog for monthssssss, haha)



Since most of the products I'm reviewing here are foundations, I decided to keep the makeup focused more on the skin also. :3

(As a disclaimer: None of these photos have been edited. Promise.)

[Review] Mehron Celebre HD Pro Foundation Palette

Hello!

I haven't really had time to blog recently because of school, so this is me trying to get caught up at random moments during the day.

So, because I started going to school to hopefully lead into being a MUA, I figured I should start collecting items for my kit. 

This is one of the most important pieces in my kit so far. 

I did a lot of research to see which foundations, palette or not, would be the best bang for my buck since I'm just starting out. Now, I in no way wanted to skimp since foundation is the base for the face, (HA. BASE FOR THE FACE) but I did want to get as much out of it as possible. Then came this beaut.

[Review] Real Techniques Expert Face Brush

I've been without a foundation brush for quite a while. Ever since my ecotool brush broke (the bristles came out) I've been without one as I waited for them to send me a replacement. (I sent them a complaint about it, plus a picture, through their website where they have a "contact us" section and they got back to me quickly and were amazing enough to send me a replacement)

So finally, I took my butt to Ulta to purchase some of these Real Technique brushes that I've heard so much about. I already knew that I wanted to get the expert face brush since I LOVE buffing on my liquid/cream/powder foundations. To me, you really only need one brush to rule them all in foundation. That used to be my Ecotools bronzer brush (which I still adore).

[Review] MUFE HD invisible cover Foundation #127 Dark Sand

Alrighty~
If you don't know, I'm a huge believer in trying out foundations at home before buying and I almost never trust one of those counter girls to color match me. LOL
I've had bad experiences where they match me with this horrible dark orange color, so now, I color match myself.

I've been wanting to try out Make up forever's foundation for a LONGGG time and finally got my butt into sephora to ask for a sample.
In the store, I wasn't exactly sure which shade to get, 125 or 127, so I got both. :D (I also got a sample of the full cover concealer in 7)

They put it in super cute little containers where they squirt some in and let you take it home.
SWATCHESSS

I definitely think 125 matches me a lot better. 127 is just a smidgen too yellow. I can possibly see myself wearing 127 now (summer) and 125 during the winter since everyone likes being tan during summer...but I try my best to always wear sunblock, stay inside, etc so I stay the same shade for the most part.

Here's my face without anything in natural lighting. You can see my birthmarks and all the redness from rosecea. (ignore the one hair LOL)


Here's my face in 3 different lightings after I came back from errands. Let me tell you. I felt like I was melting. Florida is SOOOO hot right now. Hot and muggy and there's no breeze to help. x__x blech.

Here's some yellow lighting~

Some..inbetween? xD

and some white fluorescent lighting which I think mimics natural lighting?
(Also wearing the concealer in 7)
So as you can see, it held up really nicely in the hot, muggy mess that is Florida. I love the finish of this foundation as it doesn't look too heavy and you can almost not tell it's even there.



Pros:
Amazing Finish
Lasts throughout the day with little touchups
Awesome Coverage
Not cakey or heavy
Good color selection

Cons:
Pretty pricy ($42 a bottle)


That really is the only con I can think of at the moment. I LOVE this foundation and I probably will splurge to get it. 

Review on 125 and concealer coming soon~

Cosplay look: Stocking from Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt

My first cosplay look for this blog!
Basically, whenever I do a different character, I'll be posting the make-up that I used that particular day, etc.

FIRST LOOK IS STOCKING. From Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt!
Stocking is seen as a "goth loli" character with light green eyes. Her everyday clothing is normally dark colored but every now and then they have her in all pink, light blue, etc outfits. (Not including her angel outfit) She also has a major sweet tooth! 8D

I debuted this cosplay...2 years ago? At megacon~ It's her waitress outfit from one of the episodes~ I had a panty but we didn't get to take any pictures together unfortunately. :(
With this outfit, she wears skates and...I can't skate for my life. T__T I bought skates just to be accurate...but I cannot stay upright on them and it makes me sad. I'm fine with roller blades though. :_;
