Life Saver! Eye Primer for Oily Eyelids

To people who have oily skins, foundation melting is one thing, but don't forget your eye makeup. Even though the eyeliner claimed to have super strong staying power, I am sorry they aren't just working on me. Staying away from eyeliner pencil and gel eyeliner, because they just melt 24/7 in summer and winter! Trust me!


It's not easy to find eye primer in Hong Kong. But I know I need it, there are mainly two major competitors in the market: Urban Decay and Two Faced. I have been using both products. I have to say Urban Decay has better performance to prime my eye lids. On the other hand, Two Faced has a more moisture texture, while Urban decay is a bit dried. For those who doesn't have super oily eyelids, Two Faced could be a good choice to simply prevent any cakey accident.

For those have extremely oily eyelids, Urban Decay is right for you, especially the hot and humid weather in Asia. I just couldn't live without it. my eyelids also produce oil in winter, so I tend to use Two Faced during winter, gives a little break for my Urban Decay. My Urban Decay is from its old design, which is no longer continued. The new design is a tube design like the Two Faced, easier to apply and no more wasted primer left inside the tube.


My first Urban Decay and Two Faced Eye Primer were both bought in the States. Luckily we can now get both Urban Decay and Two Faced makeup products from a online shop LookFantastic, which ships internationally. LookFantasitc is having sale right now. Go check it out!

Winter Nail Polish Collection

Nail polish is such an addiction to me. I have been loving nail polish especially in fall, it feels so right and comfortable to put on my mail polish and wear a warm sweater.

Essie Sew Psyched
I know the name may sound a bit awkward, the deep green colour isn't everyone favourite, but it's mine. I tend to like cold green pastel colour.

Essie After School Boy Blazer
This nail polish just came out with the Winter Collection from Essie lately, has earned lots of ravings. It's a dark blue nearly black colour. I would say the colour is a great navy nail polish if you don't have one and want a new ones keeping into your pocket.

Essie Bahama MaMa
This berry nail polish has been a super star since it launched. I couldn't resist to keep this lovely burgundy nail polish hide into my collection. However I would say this plum nail polish is watery, need to be very careful while  I was applying it. The polish itself is quite watery compared to other Essie nail polishes. Sometimes I find that I need three coats for a good finish look.

Essie Merino Cool
My very first grey nail polish, gives a subtle coat is so nice to match with my dark colour autumn wardrobe.

OPI Lincoln Park After Dark
It's a quite popular colour among nail polish world. The blacked purple colour gives out a misery look to add a bite of vampire feel.


All nail polishes are available in drugstores of the States and UK. Cher2 nail polish shop in Hong kong.

Review: Topshop Cream Blush

Since Topshop just launched in Hong Kong last week, I just first tried out the cream blush "Head Over Heel", a peachy summery blush. Consider my skin color will get tanner in Summer, coral/ peach color blush is my favorite. The cream blush isn't sticky and stays for a day. The color blends pretty well on my cheek bone. The price is quite affordable HKD 79. I would love to try out some more blush from them. However, their nail polish is all another rave for me too. I didn't see lots of selection, hope the shop will fill up a wider range of nail polish.

   

With A Topshop opens opposite to H&M

Topshop just opened its first flap store in Central, Hong Kong, which happened to be opposite to the first H&M store in Hong Kong. As a Central local, I can tell this opening doesn't just attract lots and lots of people to Topshop, but also to H&M. There were at least 30 people line up in H&M cashier is each floor. Although Topshop would definitely be a strong competitor for H&M, I bet it also bring more sales to both of them.

There were tons of people on queue for getting into Topshop. As a fast fashion fans, I admitted I was one of them. Luckily it doesn't take long to get in. :) I am always fond to makeup product from Topshop. Their cream blush is quite a popular with a drugstore price while Revlon hasn't launched the PhotoReady Cream Blush in Hong Kong. Topshop's is definite an alternative. With the humid and hot weather on Summer, cream blush lasts longer for sure (melting makeup is def a no-no). The Head Over Heel catches my eyes immediately. It matches my tanned Olive skin color perfectly. Although I still haven't gotten the chance to try out some of their clothes, it will be a big check point added to my daily shopping map in Central aside from Victoria's Secret lately.
