Bronzer Special

As summer is approaching, I am doing a quick swatch post about some of my favourite bronzers. Hope this helps everyone to find their favourite one!

Dior Holiday 2012 Celebration Palette Look

Really quick post today, just a little eye makeup look, from this gorgeous palette.

OPI I Have a Herring Problem

Dear all, I have been gone for a long time. Many things happened, and I have been way too busy. Now everything turns out perfectly fine, and I am back again!

Just a quick post today, since I am still in my final exam period. Just wanna give a quick little post about my favourite nail polish at the moment, OPI's I have a Herring Problem.

When I took these pictures, these nails have been on me for already about a week, with only a base and no top coat! It is a dark teal blue. When I first put it on, it looks like those cloudy gray crayons I used to use when I was little, those ones that are labeled grey, but is actually a muted blue. It has a lot of shimmer in them, mostly gold, but not metallic or anything, just something to distinguish them from other teal blues. What I love about these is that they stay on for a long time, and they seem to wear shinier as they go. These are definitely more shiny than when I first put them on about a week ago. And when I trim my nails from the top, they don't chip afterwards.

These are 2 coats, with no top coat, over Essie's First Base Base coat. These are hard to remove, but it is totally worth it.

Blush Obsession Series - Mac Marilyn Monroe Blush Comparisons

First of all, long time no see. As a person in deep obsession with blushers, I have gotten both blushes from the Marilyn Monroe collection. The eyeshadows were too cool-toned, the dazzleglass too transparent, and I am not good with red lipsticks. The beauty powder really didn't do it for me, although I almost got it for the compact, then later labeled myself ridiculous for wanting to pay that much for a cosmetic container. I am pale, and the beauty powder is probably just going to be a finishing powder for me. That may or may not be an advantage. I decided not.

However, the point of this blog post is that I just want to quickly relieve some of you panic-stricken girl's paranoia, since the blushes and almost everything else in this collection sold like crazy and are all gone before the blink of an eye. But, here are dupes, so don't be too sad if you didn't snatch one.

First of all, The Perfect Cheek's dupes. This one is a little tough, all the dupes I could think of turned out not to be exact dupes, but they come close on the face. Ignore other swatches, I went a little crazy. This is the first time I edited the pictures on my phone, since I was so busy lately, I kind of did it while waiting for the train. It may look a little different than previous pictures.

Winged Smokey Eye

The good old smokey eye with a wing. I don't like winged eyeliner much, but a winged smokey eye works for me.

This is very very easy, one shadow job.

Lush R&B - For the Perfect Road Trip Hair

Want soft, shiny, super smooth and sexy slightly slept-in hair? Then I think I've got something for you.

R&B..piano, get it? Yea I'm pretty lame...

China Glaze Sea Spray

This polish has such a perfect name, it's refreshing just saying it. In any case it is one of my favourite China Glaze ever.
