October 2016 favorites!




Hello! The last monthly favorites that I did was in August right when I was back from Indonesia. I'm sorry that I didn't write a September favorites because well there weren't really anything that I truly love from September. This month have been both bitter and sweet. The exhaustion from looking for a place to intern in, being in the last semester for in my DECE. Anyways, lets get on with this month's favorites?


1. Beauty Blender

Yes, the original beauty blender . I've been using my Real Techniques expert face brush to apply my foundation for years now and finally decided to try the famous beauty blender. Now I can understand why this is a must have in your makeup collection. I've been using it almost everyday to apply my foundation and it makes my foundation application so skin like? Like it sits on my skin so nicely. Because you have to use it damp, I love the cooling sensation I get every time I do my foundation now. It's so much easier to blend my foundation . I think blending took the longest out of my makeup routine but now it's definitely my brows and eyes ( eyeshadow, mascara etc) .



Price? RM 99 (Bought it during Sephora black card sale so I got it for 10% off)


2. Bourjois healthy mix serum Gel foundation

If you haven't seen it, I made a mini review of this foundation on the Instagram page for blogpostsbyrf. Here is the link https://www.instagram.com/p/BL56u0GgBCH/?taken-by=blogpostsrf

I think I shouldn't say anything else other than to try this foundation regardless of your skin type because I think it'll work well with any skin type and mine is acne prone and oily !




Price? <RM60


3. Too Faced cocoa powder foundation

This is one of the foundation that I've been wanting to try for ages. Thanks to my lovely boyfriend , Robby he decided to buy it for me because I was in need of a setting powder and I've been talking about it often. I keep it in my bag along with my Real Technique brush for touch ups and to set my makeup. Because my foundation has a light coverage, this powder foundation helps in coverage and to set my foundation. I'm using the shade Medium Tan. My base makeup would look matte but natural throughout the day!



Price? RM137

4. Heimish all clean balm

My first balm (makeup remover ) it's absolutely amazing. I've tried using an oil cleanser and it causes so much acne. Before using this balm I was using a micellar water to remove my makeup and I'd use so much cotton pads. I feel like using a micellar water didn't really remove all of the makeup from my face and it was the cause of my closed comedones. This balm removes all of my makeup off including waterproof mascara. So simply and so easily. I love how soft my skin feels after using this balm. Heimish said that you don't need a second cleanser after using this balm but I feel better using a second cleasner anyway to make sure that my face is all clean Lastly, I love how pretty their packaging is!



Price? RM 59


5. Maybelline baby skin instant pore eraser primer

Primer oh primer. The other primer that I've tried other than this is the Benefit porefessional. I wouldn't say that this is a dupe to the Benefit porefessional. But it works pretty well as a primer from the drugstore. Every time that I use this primer my foundation looks so smooth. It is easy to apply and it's light weight too. I hate it when I can feel it on my skin that I'm using a bunch of product.



Price? RM29


So glad I can put out this month's favorites for you guys. I've been so lazy lately and it is not okay. Feel free to ask me to do a full review on any of these products!

Empties review: Loreal Mat magique BB essence SPF50 +PA +++

Hello! How's everyone?
As you can see I'm trying to improve my blog design again. It is honestly not easy to do it and I'm still trying to figure it out. I'm sorry that I didn't make a blog post for my September favorites because I didn't want to post a September favorites in the month of October and I just didn't have time to write one. Although I have a mini September favorites up in the Blogpostsrf instagram account (https://www.instagram.com/blogpostsrf/). I'm doing my first empties review blog post. I've finished the Loreal Mat magique BB essence today and I thought I can write a good review about the product.

Soo lets get on with the review!

R2- ROSE VANILLA
I've seen this in Malaysia a few months ago but somehow I can't find it anymore and it's upsetting because this is one of the best BB cream I've tried. I bought this in Indonesia in Matahari. I've realised that I have an acne-prone skin so I have to be really careful when trying out a new product. This bb cream didn't break me out at all. It claims to be the ' First powder in-essence BB infused with Volcanic perlite. It is a matte finish BB cream. Every time that I use this BB cream I didn't have to use a setting powder. Packaging wise, it is super pretty and it feels expensive? I'm not sure if it really is a glass bottle or not but it sure feels like one.

I'

The only thing that I dislike about this BB cream is that it dries out super quickly so you have to blend it in pretty fast. Don't try this if your skin is dry it will not be pretty. One day when I was in Indonesia and I was on acne treatment my skin was so dry and I insist on using this BB cream and it was awful. It's also liquidy? That's why it can be a mess when you try to put it on your face.hand, beauty blender or brush. But I can live pass the flaws that this BB cream has because I truly love this BB cream. Please let me know if I can purchase this BB cream in Malaysia. I'd say give it a try if you have normal/combination-oily/oily skin.


Price: IDR 150 000 / RM 47
