ARRA'S FINGERS BY ARRA KARIM: December 2010

Yesterday I went to Sogo with my sister. I decided to not buy anything as I know I am quite in a tight situation with money now. I was supposed to just accompany my sister to buy perfume as Sogo has Christmas set for it, as usual. But while waiting for her to pay, I went inside MAC when i just told myself not to because I know all the products are just soo irresistable! And yeah, I grabbed an eyebrow set, the code is Girl Boy, and it suits any skin tone..

So yeah, it's worth buying since it helps with the colour of our eyebrow. And it's only RM60. So girls out there, to make your work on the eyebrow easy, grab this worth-buying gel. Recommended!

The next items that I bought from MAC are Lustre Lipstick in 'Lovelorn' and for blush, I purchased MAC Holiday 2010 Collection - A Tartan Tale - Her Blooming Cheek powder blush. Both of them are useful for me to create a girlish, barbie look as the blush is the combination of pink + fuchsia and it's absolutely gorgeous. As for Lovelorn, the colour is pinkish and very sweet if you want to look sweet, innocent and pretty :)

[these are not my lips - so just look at the colour =) ]

I really love how the colour looks on the lips. However, personally I feel that this colour does not really suit my face as I look pale. Maybe I need something bright or more pinkish (deep pink) and I can mix it with Lovelorn. And as for blush, here it is;

I need to blend this colour with other lighter and soft pinkish blush because this colour is too intense. It is also very pigmented so you need to be extra careful and definitely you need a light hand when applying on your cheek. Just dab it slowly on your cheek, blend it and voila, pretty look you got there. It gives pinkish fuchsia hue and I think I am gonna love it :)) Well, what i can say. I love blush! I hope I can have extra money to purchase more blush from MAC \(^-^)/

And last but not least, the cosmetics I purchased early today at One Utama, Benefit cosmetics. I DID NOT intend to buy any but my heart simply could not resist that beautiful store/ kiosk of Benefit...so no one's to blame but me. I bought shimmering double-ended lip gloss (6 lip glosses!), stay-put primer for concealers & eyeshadows, and the POREfessional pore minimizer. They are super cool and endearingly pretty, the packaging and design. I've been admiring them since I was in Matric back in 2003.

This is Stay Don't Stray Stay-put Primer for Concealers and Eyeshadows. I have read reviews about this product and it is certainly worth buying. For RM108, it can be used up until two years because we don't need much when applying this product.

Well, you should try this if you have visible pores and just see how it works. Superb!

And this amazingly gorgeous packaging of lip glosses is eye-catchy. I bought this for only RM112, Christmas packaging. There are six colours altogether and they are super gorgeous. They are worth buying and the smell is good too. I am luvin' em..

And the best part is I got a complimentary product, a highlight, 'High Beam'. It's super tiny and cute! 'High Beam' is used to highlight certain parts of your face. Put a few tiny drops of it on certain areas on face such as upper cheekbone, nose bridge and chin and pat and blend it well. It gives a complete lift to your face and makes your skin glow too. I think it works the same as mineralize skinfinish 'Soft and Gentle' by MAC. I can't wait to try this on. Weeee \(^-^)/
