The Beauty Department: Your Daily Dose of Pretty. - page 8


It's never too late to discover something new! I joined Bloglovin and have been enjoying surfing all types of blogs. This is the one blog that I feel like I have to share with my friends.



In the Video, Lauren Conrad is showing how to make fishingtail braid which I never thought it could be that easy!!!


Enjoy!

Great Deal Must Share!!!






If you have experiencing the hard time to comb through your hair in the morning, Tangle Teezer is the ultimate hair brush must have!!!

Not sure about it, go youtube it and see all the great reviews of this teezer!

I've just purchased another purple one today.  I've had a pink/black one bought long time ago, but I kind of broke it...  Be aware!!! It's absolute plastic, so do not let your blow dryer blow to the brush for too long if hot because the heat would burn the brush.  

Enjoy your shopping.

Left to Right: EL, Revlon, Dior

看了试色,是不是觉得特点很明显,EL哑光颜色饱和,Revlon珠光绝对够闪,Dior保湿绝对一流。
这里顺便还是要说下几个的不足,

-EL上色很足,当然颜色容易太过显色不化妆的话不太实用

-Revlon珠光很大,颜色并不是很显色,也不是很滋润

-Dior手背试色上来回涂了很多次才能显色,滋润归滋润,颜色也跟着水掉了,嘴唇试色虽然是三个里面颜色最美的一个,可是真的要涂很多层啊

我个人的习惯是先用EL打一层底,抿下嘴唇,让颜色均匀后,可以选择用Revlon或者Dior的来强调。

三只唇膏的价格如下,仅供参考哦:

El:approx 18USD after tax,purchased at cosmetic company outlet store
Revlon: approx 8 after tax, purchase at CVS/Walgreen
Dior: approx 32 after tax, purchase at Sephora/dpt store

Some sales worth a shot

Don't we just love the holiday season! Especially with the sales going on.  I was looking for a pair of Michael Kors buckled platform pumps and found this maxi dress on sales @ CK online store.   As a huge fan of CK, I can not pass this deal on.  There are only xs and smalls left, so hopefully I can squeeze in size small.  No telling Mr.  ;)  Oh by the way, the dress is 100% silk!!!!

NYX Lip Balm Swatches: Sparkling Nude, Tea Rose

这一两年口红买了不少只,经常用的没几个,NYX的这两个是我平时利用率还算蛮高的,不过我吧,一般记不住涂唇彩什么的,我说的高利用率其实就是想到了就来一下,这两个属于颜色自然,显色,不黏,基本上不用太操心会不会跟妆的色调冲突。

Sparkling Nude 是很shimmering的橘色,coral,珠光特别特别的密集,我还挺喜欢这款的,手背试色感觉是闪闪的橘色香槟色。

Tea Rose算是颜色很正很正的偏玫瑰色的nude color,creamy,minimal shimmer,手背试色就可以看出sparkling nude和tea rose的shimmer的程度。

下面直接看试色吧,这两款日常放包里随时想起来都可以直接用。 NYX家的唇彩价格也不高,多囤几只也不为过。
