Blush me!

I've had this post open for a while.... and it's been left blank for some time now. Frankly, I think it's because I genuinely do not know what to blog about. I've experienced so many changes this past year - some good and some bad, but hey, that's just the cycle of life eh?

Apologies(once again!) for the minimal posts on here. 5 posts this year, I'm on a roll!!! Haha. Now I do have a reason for coming back(and changing the layout if you didn't notice :P), it's because I have no more university for 3-4 months!!!!! So I have all this spare time..... Honestly, I do not know what to do - but in no way heck am I complaining!

On another note, I purchased 2 blushes that I want to share with you guys! (You too boys, hi babe hehe)

MAC's Powder Blush in 'Dame'

My verdict.

What I noticed about this product was that it looked different to what it appeared in the palette then on my face(maybe it's my skin colour?). Nevertheless, I love it because the neutral pink tones make you appear as though you have a natural blush on your face. Although in the above photo, it does look like there is a vast amount of sheer accompanying it, when you put it on your face, you can barely see it. It's a base incredibly close to matte. It also lasts long(longer than my previous blushes), but it is a bit pricey if you're on a tight budget.

Would I purchase this again?

Yes, but I would experiment with other colours in this MAC Powder Blush range.

You can purchase this for $41 at MAC's counter at David Jones.

Too Faced Brightening Blush in 'La Vie En Rose'

My verdict.

I had such high hopes for this product but it let me down! It's not as pigmented as I thought it would be and its sheer tones appear more on my face than the colour itself. Quite disappointed but I absolutely love the packaging.

Would I buy it again? No, I don't think I would purchase from this line. I would probably look into their 'Full Bloom Powder Brush' range instead.

You can purchase this from the Too Faced counter at Myers or David Jones for $35.95

It seems like every single time I complete a new post, my hair colour changes. Well this post isn't any different! I went to a dark ash brown about two months ago, but it's fading like a crazy motherhoe(refer to Exhibit A haha) right now so I must pay a visit to the hairdressers soon!!!!

Exhibit A

So what's everyone up to this summer break? Well, I'm going to be travelling to Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand with my family, so I am definitely looking forward to that!!! I really do miss travelling overseas - hotels, shopping, sight-seeing... you name it!!

Well I hope you all enjoy this break -

and let's hope my next post isn't in another 4 months hey? ;)
