THE BALM COSMETIC’S SMOKE BALM EYE SHADOW PALETTE


Hey beauties! How are y’all doing? I hope you guys are having a great weekend!

Today, I’ll be reviewing 1 of my recent favorite eye shadow palette. I have just been using it recently, and wondered why shouldn’t I share it with you guys on how it works for me.. So, yeah.. keep on reading to know more about this product.

Product: The Balm Cosmetic’s Smoke Balm Eye shadow palette

Price: RM59.00 / USD 12+

Quantity: 10.2 gram 

Available at: Selective Sasa Outlets (Malaysia)





Appearance: Well, you guys know that I’m a sucker for attractive packaging and when it comes to “The Balm Cosmetics”, their packaging beats everything! Love that vintage packaging.. Arghh! I can never stop bragging about it.. Hahah! This palette is small & cute, you can bring it everywhere. It comes with 3 eye shadows & a mirror which you can see in the pictures below.


What it says Men May Stop, Drop and Roll, Smoke Balm Smokey Eye Palette May Cause Shortness of Breath In Men! xD

"flash on"
Experience: Eye shadows are all about how pigmented they are.. and I’m blown away on how pigmented this smoke balm is! A little goes a long way guys! I love the buttery texture which makes it so effortless to blend in!

It comes with 3 different shades: Kindle, Glow & Combust.

Kindle” ~ Greenish black shade + shimmer
Glow” ~ Cool toned brown + matte
Combust” ~ Champagne + shimmer

Love the fact that I can even use “glow” as contour & “combust” as my highlighter. My favorite shade in these palette is definitely “combust”.. Omg! That glow it gave when I applied it on the highest point of my cheeks. Stunning! It’s the exact dupe for The Balm’s Mary Lou Manizer! If you can’t get your hands on them, grab this then! You should at least have 1 of these in your life! :P


Pros:
  • Travel friendly
  • Very pigmented
  • Can be even use it to contour & highlight
  • Buttery texture
  • Easy to blend

Cons:
  • Not available everywhere
  • Always out of stock


Will I repurchase? Yessss

VICTORIA’S SECRET PURE SEDUCTION BODY MIST

Hey beauties! How are y’all doing? I know.. I know.. I’ve been MIA for almost a month! *guilty* My apologize for that! I’ll try my level best to post more stuffs to cover up my shortfalls! So, finally after a longggg break, I’m back again.. Today, I’ll be reviewing on a fragrance that I have been using for quite some time now. 

Product: Victoria’s Secret Body Mist in “Pure Seduction”

Price: RM50 (GST included) 

Quantity: 250ml or 8.4 fl oz 

Shelf life12 months


Available at: Victoria’s Secret outlets ( I got mine at Johor Premium Outlet)


Appearance: It comes with a simple plastic bottle. The mist is in pinkish red color, but don’t worry, it won’t stain your shirt.


What it says? A flirty, floral fragrance. Entice in Pure Seduction, a passionate romance of succulent red plum and sweet freesia. Experience the luxury of fragrance. Refreshing formula is infused with conditioning aloe Vera and calming chamomile.


Directions: Spray on for a sexy touch of scent.


My Experience: This is my 3rd bottle! I’ve used “Vanilla Lace” which I absolutely love.. (I’m obsessed to Vanilla fragrance, btw) But this time, I tried “Pure Seduction”. Let me be honest with you guys, when the first time I used, I HATED IT! And that’s because I’m not a fruity scent kinda person. Once I started to use it regularly, I began to like it!

If you’re a person who loves fruity and floral fragrance, then this is definitely for u! This “Pure Seduction” body mist has red plum & freesia scent to it, which makes it smell sooooo sweet, fresh & girly.

The staying power of this mist is quite impressive as it holds for about 4-5 hours, or even more than that depends on the climate. And you know what, I’ve been literally spraying this body mist every single day on my body, it almost been more 9 months, and it is yet to finish! I’m still using it! If you have not tried it, you should grab it! It’s so worth it, trust me!


Pros:
  • Plastic bottle (travel friendly)
  • 1 bottle last for more than 9 months
  • Stays on body for about 4-5 hours
  • Fruity & floral scent
  • Cheap


Cons:
  •  Smells way too sweet for me


Will I repurchase? Duhh, of course! But not this 1 may be.. Hehe.. I’ll grab my most favorite “Vanilla Lace” :D


Rate: 4.5/5


Thank you so much for your time! xoxo

Please do comment and share with me what’s your favorite body mist at the moment! See you guys again on my next post..  

Loads of love,
