Balmbini Volume 2 Face Palette Review (Sponsored gift from Reine DollShop)

good day everyone..!!! i'm trying really hard to be consistent in posting a new post more often.. hehe.. so today's post is about "Balmbini Volume 2 Face Palette" from the Balm cosmetics and this is one of the gift that i got from Reine Dollshop, i will give the swatch of the colors and apply it on my face.. but i have to apologize first because i forgot to bring my brush set..!! so i only use the natural brush that every human has which is the fingers..~ and a lil help from cotton buds.. and let's start the review shall we??

Packaging

first as usual we will see the packaging first, this is actually my first palette from the Balm cosmetics so i am really excited to try it..!!

the front

the back

omg.. i really love the packaging design..!! so colorful and cute.. the explanation on the back is clear too and you can read it easily.. there's even an instruction to create a look using this palette, this kinda reminds me of my Em cosmetic Life Palette which give a few instructions too to create a different looks using their palette..

Product Description

and now let's see the inside, i wonder what colors this palette provide and is it pigmented or not? hehe.. but first let me explain that this palette contains 4 shadow/liner (it means you can use it as eyeshadow or eyeliner), 1 highlighter/shadow, 1 lip/cheek cream, 1 lip gloss.. i also provide the color swatches on my wrist on photo below..

color swatches

whoaa.. love the colors..!! and it's very pigmented.. you really can create a full look by using this palette only.. so i will give a description for the colors, i already mark each of the colors with alphabet letters on the picture above..

- a : this is a lipgloss called "Nude"
- b : this is a lip/cheek cream called "Strawberry"
- c : this is a shadow/liner called"Lavis Latoya"
- d : this is a shadow/liner called "Open to Offers Olwen"
- e : this is a shadow/liner called "Manic Maribel"
- f : this is a shadow/liner called "Jinxy Jasmyne"
- g : this is a highlighter/shadow called "Promiscuous Pearl"

almost all the eyeshadows except the black one have glitters on it and they really have beautiful colors.. i love the highlighter especially when you put it on your brow bone, it isn't too sparkly and shiny but not matte also, it's just there and brings out the brow bone out.

i will try to do the look that they put on the back of the box, but as i said before, i forgot to bring my brushes so i did everything with my fingers and cotton buds, some of the photos quality also wasn't that great because i haven't found my camera charger, but i hope it's clear enough.. thank you for the understanding..!!

Directions

How to get the look "Balmbini Volume 2" :

- prep your face first with your basic skincare then primer, continue with bb cream or foundation, concealer and done.. don't put any powder first because later i will apply the cream blusher.
- then continue for the eye makeup, apply the eyeshadow primer, after that on the inner corner use the purple eyeshadow the one that called"Lavis Latoya", and use the green color called "Open to Offers Olwen" on the center and outer corner of the eyelid.

apply the purple and green eyeshadow

"Lavish Latoya"

"Open to Offers Olwen"

- then i use the gold color eyeshadow called "Manic Maribel" above the purple and green color, put it little by little to build up the intensity, i prefer it not too bold but still visible and don't forget to blend them well

apply the gold eyeshadow

"Manic Maribel"

- next, i apply the black eyeshadow called "Jinxy Jasmyne" on the outer corner only, just to deepen and darken the eye a lil bit, and blend the color, as you can see the black color isn't too bold and it doesn't affect the other colors.. actually if you dip ur brush with water and use this color, it can be a substitute to your eyeliner, well it works for the other colors as well.. but i prefer using my own liquid eyeliner since you know i have this oily eyelid and afraid the eyeshadow will smudge all over.. hehe..

black eyeshadow on the outer corner only

"Jinxy Jasmyne"

- after that i use the pearl highlighter called "Promiscuous Pearl" on my brow bone, gosh i really love this color..!!

pearl highlighter on the brow bone

"Promiscuous Pearl"

 - after that i apply my favorite eyeliner ,K-palette 24 hour eyeliner and for the lower lash line, i'm using 3 colors they are green, purple, and pearl color.. i started from the outer with green one and because i don't have any brush, i'm using the help of cotton buds on this part, next on the inner corner i'm using the pearl color all the way to the middle and last but not least the purple color in the middle, blend them well.

- tadaaa..!! the eyeshadow part is done..!! next curl the lashes, and apply the mascara on upper and lower lash. don't forget to fill in your eyebrow..!! products that i used :
mascara : maybelline lash stiletto
eyebrow : VOV auto eyebrow pencil

- for the cheek, i'm gonna use the cheek cream the one that called "strawberry", never use powder before applying cream blusher or you will end up with cakey makeup..! i pat down the cheek cream on the apple of my cheek and blend it carefully, i love the color..!! so natural..~
don't forget to powder after applying the cheek cream.. or if you into that dewy look you can leave the powder..!

"Strawberry"

- and for the lips, i use the strawberry lip/cheek cream color again and layer it with "nude" color lipgloss..

"nude"

 - and it's done..!! do you like the result? give comment and let me now..!! i'm open for any tips and suggestions..~

before after

Price : i don't know the exact price for this because i got it as a gift, but i guess it's around Rp 400.000,- ??? i'm just guessing, you can ask Reine Dollshop for the exact price, the owner is very kind and patient, ready to answer all of my questions, oh and fast response too..!! i will give the contact information down below..~

Pros and Cons

Pros :

- all the products, eyeshadows, lipgloss, lip/cheek cream are very pigmented
- multi functional palette, 1 palette can do a lot of things
- perfect size if you want to bring it for travelling
- gorgeous colors..!!

Cons :

- this product may be pretty pricey for some ppl, but i would say that it's not pricey because u can make a complete look just from this palette, imagine that you can save ur money for other things..!!
- well, just like jordana, it's hard to find this brand in Indonesia, you can only purchase it online

Conclusion

i rate this product : 10/10

whoaaa... yeah it's a high review but i feel super satisfied with this palette and of course i already thinking about purchasing another palette from the balm..!! i am really interested in their products..!!

Jordana Best Lash Extreme and Jordana Fabu Liner Review (sponsored gift from Reine DollShop)

Hello everyone..!!!! i'm back..!! did you miss me??!! hehe.. so i'm trying to be more consistence here to write a new blog post every week..!! *wish me luck...* i will try my best to fulfill my promise, i do..! ;)

today i want to review about Jordana Best Lash Extreme and Jordana Fabu Liner, i got these products from Reine Dollshop .. hehe.. so i'm gonna keep this blog short and simple and let's start the review..~

first up is Jordana Best Lash Extreme, i love mascara..!! that's why i am so excited to receive new product to try..!! mascara i a must have item for me because i don't like wearing fake eyelashes all the time, i only wear them for photoshoot, blogging, party, and special occasions.. so mascara is my bff..!! so let's review on the packaging first, it's a usual regular mascara design.. nothing really special from the outside but i do love the colors combination, black and purple for the font.. so this is a black mascara #301 black, and you can see all the details on pics below..~

for the wand itself, well i kinda love it, it's small and easy to apply on my lash.. i think this is a great wand for under eyelash..!! really love it..<3

so what i know is this mascara is NOT waterproof, but i never had any trouble when using it, no flaking or smudging to be honest.. isn't it great? i love using this one for daily use because the results is very natural and not too thick.. i will show you guys how it look when i put it on, also with my before and after photos for you to judge by yourself after i review the eyeliner..

Pros :

~ NOT a waterproof mascara, but there's no flaking or even smudging, perfect for a natural daily makeup

~ a perfect wand for lower eyelash

~ not clumpy

~ long wear

Cons :

~ can only be purchase online, there's no store that sell this brand here in Indonesia

~ for me the formula is too dry unlike the maybelline mascara

i rate this product 7/10

do i want to purchase another one? perhaps.. i am a lazy person so it kinda hard for me if i have to order an item when i ran out of it, especially sometimes the online shop got no stock of the item and i have to pre order it (wait again..!! duh...).. but overall it's a great non waterproof mascara.. ;)

now for the eyeliner, Jordana Fabu Liner.. what a great and fabulous name..!! LOL.. so it's a typical regular eyeliner design, it's black with gold font on it.. this is a black eyeliner #01 black..~

well, just like the mascara, this product is NOT waterproof, yeahh it's not... i don't recommend this to ppl who have oily eyelids like mine because it will smear or smudge..!! i like to make a wing on the end of my eyes and it smeared at the wing and also on the inner corner of my eyes, sometimes when my eyes get watery it will smudge and make me look like a panda..!! oh god.. but to be honest it's a great eyeliner applicator, the tip is thick like a marker, great for making a thick straight line..

the eyeliner color itself is actually quite bold, and you can build up the intensity to be bolder, for me one stroke is enough.. so this is the before and after using both Jordana best lash extreme and Jordana fabu liner, i'm sorry for the photos quality, the after photos are pretty bad because i'm using my front camera of my phone.. i am still searching my pocket camera charger so please be patient about my photos quality..!!

before

after

Pros :

~ it's a great product to create a thick line, you don't need too many strokes

~ easy to clean because it's not a waterproof eyeliner

~ the color is pretty bold

~ easy to use

Cons :

~ not suitable for those with oily eyelids, because it will smear and smudge everywhere

~ hard to find because there's no store that sell Jordana Cosmetics

i rate this product : 4/10

i rate this eyeliner so low just because it doesn't work for me, my eyelids are very oily and almost all eyeliner kinda smudge on me, not only this one.. clearly, i won't purchase another one, just hoping that this is a waterproof product.. >o<

but if your eyelid isn't oily like mine, you should give this a try.. who knows it will be a holy grail to you..!!

so that's it..!! it's all a wrap for this post.. i hope you guys like it and i will continue creating a new blog post every week..!!! thx for reading and give me any feedback, i will appreciate it..!! see ya..~~

Bh Cosmetics Blush Duo "Rose" Review [sponsored gift from ReineDoll Shop]

hey everyone..!!! omg, it has been almost a month since my last post..!! i really missed blogging a lot, i dunno why there's so many obstacles to do it.. just when i promised to make more posts, things keep happening to me.. there's no excuses, it's real though that recently i got a severe allergic reaction, rashes appears everywhere and it getting worst day after day for almost a week.. then i decided to see a doctor, they draw some blood sample from me to be tested, i have to wait around 3 days to get the result, and while waiting the doctor give me some medicines, liquid soap and moisturizer for super sensitive skin, and also a cream to use when i feel the itchiness attack..=(

and guess what? the result is i got some allergic potential against milk product, bee venom (bee product such as honey, royal jelly, etc), and dog furs.. i have consume all these products but never face any allergic reaction, and i have had dog since i was a little girl.. this allergic just came out of nowhere, and after my allergic is gone, i decided to test this theory out, i sleep with my baby every night and nothing happened (yay..!! i can't imagine sleeping without my baby girl, it will make me super sad if she is the reason of my allergic), then i accidentally eat cheese (i have avoided milk at this time) and my allergic just popping out..!! and about honey, i rarely consume honey up until around i get my allergic reaction.. there's a story behind it actually and this story doesn't need me to test it out because it proof everything, well, my mom push me to drink honey around almost 2 weeks before i got my allergic, because ppl say honey is good for our health, so i drink the honey every morning, few days later i go to malang and drink milk in there, and when i got back my allergic has already started without me realizing it.. i want to post the pictures here but i'm afraid it's too scary, hehe.. >o<

ok enough of my little story, let's continue to my review about Bh Cosmetics Blush Duo, it's a gift that i got from winning the MUC by ReineDoll Shop.. i got Rose color, i have been wanting to buy a new blusher for my collection but i never find the color that i want in store.. so when i saw the gift, i'm super excited because finally i can try a new type of blusher and a new brand, it came with 2 colors all at once, never have it and never try anything like this.. thank you ReineDoll Shop..!! yay...~~

let's move on to the packaging..!!! it's a super cute product with floral pattern on it, the main color is blue and fact that Bh Cosmetics blush duo come out with 5 different variants, they are Tulip, Lilac, Rose, Iris and Daisy.. i'm glad that ReineDoll Shop gave me the Rose color because it's not too dark on my skin, i have tried a more orange color for blusher and i look so dark.. lol..

 if you take a good look, each variants have a different floral patterns according their names.. i love the design, they put 4 flowers on each corner of the box and a 3 flowers on the inside, how cute, lovely, and girly is this product..!! gosh i love it..!! by the way the smartest thing is they put a mirror inside, i never encounter any blusher that provide mirror on it, it is make the size bigger than average blusher but hey i think it's creative..~

i rate the packaging : 9/10

now for the product itself, all of the blush duo product has 2 colors inside, darker and lighter colors.. you can use only one of it or even both of them, my rose blush duo color are for the left one is dark/deep pink rose and the right side is light peach shade.. i think this kind of color is suitable for almost all of skin tone, it creates a natural cheek color depend on the intensity that you put on.. but for me, i love to combine both of them with the ratio 1 : 2, 1 is the left side and 2 for the right side.. what i love about this blush duo is that u only need to use a little of it, the color is super pigmented and easily pop out..

the result after applying this blusher :

indoor light

direct sun light

the Pro's are :

- super pigmented
- easily blend
- great staying power, it can last without touch up until evening
- have a little bit sheen on it, so it creates a glowing look
- lovely design..<3

the cons :

- bigger size than average blusher, make it hard to bring it along
- easily form into powdery after using it, so make the container looks dirty

i rate this product : 9/10

did i want to buy Bh cosmetics blush duo again?? ABSOLUTELY YES, i even want to try different colors from this line, i'm pretty interested in Lilac color, such a cute light pink..!! Big thanks to ReineDoll Shop for introducing me to Bh cosmetics, i will absolutely keep an eye on this brand, great job..!!!

thank you to you guys who follow and read my post ever since i started blogging, really appreciate it..!! i will try to write new post as soon as possible, because i have to travel to Penang this September 6th, my mom, dad, and grandfather want to do some check ups on their health and i have to accompany them.. so yeah, pretty busy..~

Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade Review

hello girls..~~ how are u guys?? hope everyone is ok.. today i want to review about a trending product on internet, yes u know it!! it's Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade, i want to try it ever since i saw this product on instagram..!! it's so expensive for eyebrow products but i interested in it because it's smudgeproof and waterproof, who doesn't love that??!! i got oily skin so my eyebrow is easily get removed, usually it happened accidentally removed by my hand or my nephew.. boohoo.....=(

so i'm eager to try this one and manage to save up my money and finally bought it from @rosebellecosmetics ..!! yay..~~ ok let's start the review..!!

so of course the first one is the packaging (8/10):

i got no bad comments on the packaging, i love the color combination which are black and gold.. the jar is made from a solid glass, simple yet classy design.. LOVE it..!!<3

and now i will show u what is written on the box, such as the ingredients and the explanation :

ingredients

explanation

now is the jar look, i choose the chocolate color.. this product weight is 4 grams..  :

i got to say that this product has similar texture like eyeliner gel, the difference is when you apply it on the skin, the product create a smooth texture and color so you can build up the intensity..

to apply this dipbrow pomade, i use a small angle brush, make sure the brush is thin so you can create a precise shape for your eyebrow..

now the pros about this product are :

- smooth texture and color
- easy to build up the color
- doesn't draggy
- waterproof, i take a shower and my eyebrows still there..!!

the cons are :

- i have to apply it carefully and slowly because once i make a mistake, it's hard to remove by cotton bud, it did gone but i can see a brown track on my skin
- doesn't suitable if you are in hurry, because like point one, you have to apply it carefully
- for me the color is too dark, i see the color charts and this chocolate color looks like light brown but when i try it, it's more like dark brown
- for oily skin like me, this product still smudge.. i left my face for hours without touch up, so of course my face become oily again then i rub my eyebrow lightly with my finger, and the tail of my eyebrow is gone.. but if u put it on dry skin like on our hand, u can rub it as hard as u can and the color stay there, not smudgy.. but it's not as easy to wiped out like pencil so i still like this one..

well, i have to put a layer of browcara on it because like i said the color is too dark for me..

results

i give this product (7/10),

because it's still waterproof althought it's smudgy for my oily skin.. but till i find another product that suits oily skin, i like this one better than eyebrow pencil..!! now the question is did i want to buy this product again?? YES, just because the staying power is better than pencil and i need that kind of long lasting product..

oh and the principle of drawing the eyebrow is the same with my tutorial, you only subtitute the eyebrow pencil with angle brush and dipbrow pomade.. if you haven't seen it click this link for my eyebrow tutorial..

thank you for reading my blog, hope my post will help you guys.. see you and good luck..!!<3
