SUQQU Blend Color Eyeshadow #16 Hanashoubu
Last Spring, SUQQU released 3 Blend Color Eyeshadow palettes to their permanent line-up, but they were snapped up on Selfridges right away, and every time they come back in stock they are gone in a heartbeat. So when a dear friend was in Bangkok recently and offered to bring back some SUQQU, I requested for […]
Dior Spring/Summer 2014 Backstage Box
After swatching all the Dior Transat eyeshadow palettes, I decided to pass on them because they all felt somewhat powdery to me. And also, I am sucker for nice prints, which was sadly lacking. Then on my way back to the office, I was led to the Dior Backstage store by a dear friend (you know who […]
Tom Ford Incandescent Nail Lacquer
Tom Ford Incandescent was part of the 4 limited edition nail lacquers that were released for Spring 2014. However, out here in Asia, it was launched as a Spring-Summer offering last month together with the Summer palette. But for once, I don’t have much quibbles with it, as I really do think Incandescent is much […]
Tom Ford Indiscretion Nail Lacquer
You know you’re becoming a serious blogger, when you rush home on a workday to grab some insurance papers before heading out to file an accident report (background to the story here), and you end up painting your nails instead. Blame it on post-apocalyptic brain needing to hold onto something reassuring. Now, i’m not saying […]
K-lips Fetish: Coral with MAC Dreaming Dahlia & Precious Fruit
So, I have just finished digesting the very last bit of You Who Came From the Stars. I’ve been intentionally dragging it out, because I can’t imagine life without the melodrama of Cheon Song Yi and the stoic sadness of Do Min Joon. But all good things must come to an end, and to preserve […]
Glam it with Barbie: Dior Vernis 562 Emotion
Happy Monday ladies! I had a rather uninspired weekend, and just couldn’t seem to get anything creative done. We went from desert haze drought to monsoon overnight, and there’s not much sun for photo-taking. Meanwhile, my lil bub has taken to a diet of milk-and-snacks-only, so each meal was a battle of wills involving the […]
Dior My Lady Blush in Pink
There is no end to the prettiness of the Dior My Lady Blush! If you remember, I had reviewed the shade 002 Soft Coral last month, and today, I am giving you a glimpse of the 003 Pink palette which was generously loaned to me. This Dior My Lady Blush 003 Pink is so […]
Diorsnow 2014 Collection
Happy Monday beauties! Dior launched its Diorsnow 2014 collection over a week ago, and I had a chance to stop by to check them out in person. Here is a quick look at some of the items that are available, and my initial thoughts. The main attraction of the collection is the Diorsnow Fresh […]
Tom Ford Spring 2014 Lip Color Sheer
For Spring 2014, Tom Ford deigned to bestow on us a collection of 8 lipsticks and 4 nail polishes (what, that’s it?!??). These have yet to arrive in Singapore, but everybody seems to have already gotten them through the power of online shopping. In a throwback to the early days, the new Tom Ford […]
Summer came before Spring: YSL La Laque Spicy Collection
Aaahh… this sun, this heat, the tangy scent in the air… it feels like summer, except it really is still frozen tundra in most parts of the world. It’s weird to say the least, especially when YSL’s latest La Laque Couture Collection for Spring 2014 brings us back to the Moroccan theme of Summer 2013. […]
