Product Review - @sis2sis_indo Liquid Eye Shadow in the shades Choco Blend & Cherry Shimmer
I came across this one when I was in the market looking for a liquid eye shadow. I want to have one for when I don't have time to do my eye makeup but still look like putting something on my eyes.
Apparently, makeup products in sachets are trending these days especially in East Asia (like South Korea) and South East Asia (like Thailand, Indonesia, etc). This particular brand have other products in sachets too, such as mascara, bb cream, and lip & cheek duo. Don't you think that's so bizarre? 😂
I then decided to try these as they're available in convenient stores for IDR 25.000 or less than USD 2 each!
Unfortunately, I didn't have a very good first time experience with them 😔 The shade Cherry Shimmer is not really pigmented. It's basically just shimmer, so it's more suitable to use as a topper. The shade Choco Blend is a little bit better as it's a bit more pigmented.
However, I'm still unsure how to use them properly. If I don't use an eye primer, they're clumping on my crease. If I use primer, they stick only onto the part on my lids that have primer on it so there's definite line between the part that has primer and doesn't so they don't blend seamlessly, if I make any sense!
If you have any tips on how to use a liquid eye shadow, please share on the comments below!
February Low-Buy and Life updates!! Long time no posting here, guys! I know it's mid-March already, but let me post this February updates here so I have a record of what I achieved last month 😊
A bit of life updates: last month, corona has finally entered my country. Yesterday, we got a news of a death patient who was infected by corona here in the city where I live in, and he was 1 of the first deaths here in my country. And today, the mayor of my city announced that all of major events in my city were cancelled until no further notice and schools are closed until the next 14 days. I was not surprised as it's all expected, but I can't deny I was a bit taken a back by this. Let's pray for this situation to get better, guys. We're all in this together 🙏🏻😔 .

Now onto my low-buy update! I decluttered my @makeoverid lip cream (Coco) because I didn't like the shade. The brown shade looked too muddy on my skin (2nd pict). I'm planning to declutter my @aprilskin_korea Magic Cushion (3rd pict). I actually almost finish it, but I feel like the formula isn't the same as the first time I bought it. My makeup never looked good and I didn't feel any excitement anymore when wearing it. What do you think? Is it ok to just declutter it?
I also broke my low-buy a bit because I was bored 😂 I bought two liquid eye shadows in sachets (4th pict) because apparently they are on trend rn here. Will review them on a separate post!
To be honest, last month, I already felt sick of using the same products over and over again 😆 I managed to keep using the products on my use-up goals, but not as much as in the month of January. See my progress on the 5th pict!
That's all my updates, guys! I hope you're all doing well in life, work, study, low-buy or anything you do. And most importantly, stay safe, everyone!! 🤗
Review Update - @colourpopcosmetics Blush and Lite Stix
Hey, all! Some of you probably remember how I didn't have good experience with these products before. I posted my review a while back. At that time, I only tried to apply these with my fingertips, and the results were not very satisfying. I didn't get the pigmentation that I wanted, and the products just disappeared after blending.
So, thankfully, I didn't give up 😆 I tried another method! I tried to apply them with a buffing brush, and they performed much better! They look more vibrant and more melted onto the skin! Swipe to see the brush that I'm using to apply these!
I wrote my full review on my blog, including the texture, finishes, and the performance. I really appreciate if you could come by and say hi!
Have you tried these products from Colourpop? What shades are your favourite? What's the best application method that you prefer? 😍
January's empties. Total empties: 4 items.
I only finished 3 sheet masks and a bottle of eye drop. I didn't include my daily amenities (such as deodorant, shampoo, soap, toothpaste) in this kind of empty post because I always finish them anyway.
Looks like I didn't finish that many products, but actually, I managed to use a lot of products on my "20 Empties in 2020" project. Swipe to see my progress on my empties project!
From my list, there are 5 items I didn't manage to use according to my monthly target (use at least 3 times a month). I have to do better next month! However, to be honest, I'm getting sick of using the same products everyday! And it's only January! 😭 Any advice from you has done this project before and successfully met your target? 🙏🏻 #upvmonthlyempties
