Swatches and reviews!

Update - NYX products can now be bought at Colours Cosmetics if you are from Malaysia and Singapore!

Hahaha... a procrastinator I am, indeed!

I should be resuming with my Chapter 4 and 5 but right now, here I am, blogging - the case of being too self-proclaimed free.

Since I'm so freaking 'free,' I shall do more swatches and reviews of the eye palettes and also lips products in my possession so that if you guys are interested, you can go ahead and get some for yourselves.

NYX Glitter Cream Palette

I guess this is not something you'd use on everyday basis but it's pretty handy to keep a glitter palette in your collection just case you'd need it.

The glitters aren't so smooth as I've thought they'd be exception for the last colour, it turns out REALLY smooth and applies so easily as being compared to it's other counterparts.


My palette is called The Bronze Goddess, hence, I'm not sure if the same thing applies to the other palettes as well.

These glitters can be removed easily using your makeup remover or even just your facial cleanser alone, hence I guess it's not so bad. Then again, you'll be needing a good base for these glitters to stick on so that they won't transfer everywhere on your face.

NYX Nude on Nude Natural Look Kit

I have this palette for a while now and I guess it'll take another while for me to finish using every single colour in the palette. Well, it's not impulsive buy but at that point of time I was contemplating if I should get Naked or not, so, I went ahead and got this instead.

Honestly, I don't regret getting this because for me, this palette is great for everyday natural look but lemming towards budget beauty category. Hey, it's like a quarter of Naked's price!


I used Stage's eyeshadow primer as a base for the swatches and the swatches were done with 20% wet fingers for more intense colour pay-offs.

This time around, I finally tried the 2 lip glosses that came along with the palette. Previously, I didn't want to stain it or anything because I thought I should just keep them there but, who's gonna use them if I just leave them there?

The answer is - ME, obviously!


Sorry for the oily face. Hahaha... I just realized I have V-shaped face. LOLX!

NYX For Your Mysterious Brown Eyes

I bought this palette on impulse because I fell in love with the green colour. Err... okay, it's great for everyday look too but with a tinge of green and purple.

If I were to compare this to Nude on Nude Natural Look Kit, I'd prefer the previous one than this palette.


The colours aren't as pigmented as the other kit but nevertheless, for it's price, you can't complain. This is so much cheaper than Maybelline's or L'Oreal eyeshadows at our local drugstores.

Urban Decay Naked Palette

As what I've said earlier, I shouldn't be splurging on Naked but it was the best buy ever! I mean, I've never spent so much on eyeshadows and NOT regretting getting it. I bet if I let it passed back then, I'd be squirming with regrets now.

Pigmentations are of great pay-offs! Then again, the eyeshadows are so smooth and blendability is high too!

Swatches are done with Stage's eyeshadow primer as base. There's NO way I'm gonna waste my UDPP for swatches! Hahaha...

From left to right - Virgin, Sin, Naked, Sidecar, Buck, Half Baked, Smog, Darkhorse, Toasted, Hustle, Creep, Gunmetal, Whiskey & Zero

If you're contemplating to get either NYX Nude on Nude Natural Look Kit or Urban Decay Naked Palette, get UD's Naked take a look at the swatches for both palettes below!


They're pretty much similar and the plus point is that with Naked, the colours are of better quality and you get like 4 extra colours and also the shades are almost FULL-SIZED to normal UD's eyeshadows!

Hopefully this palette will be available to all Malaysian babes since Sephora will be opening soon! Yay!

Urban Decay Matte Eyeshadows & Pigments

The colours I've gotten are Narcotic and Chronic. Well, the picture says it all. I've never really purchased single eyeshadows on it's own before but, these are great buys, I me

Pigmentation is nothing to shout about since I personally think they're a bit sheer comparing to every shade in Naked Palette.


I swatched UD's Loose Pigments in Baked for ya'll too. I'm loving this pigments but I hate the packaging! It's like whenever I take it out, instead of landing on my eyelids, these pigments are all over the place! But.. but... RM13.40 only, can I complain?

Jesse's Girl Pure Pigment Eye Dusts

The shades I've gotten are Blackstar Blue and also Blue Moon. Penny Arcade and Secret Weapon belong to stupid sister. I don't know where she has put it, so I can't swatch for you guys.

The colours are beautiful, believe me!


A little goes a long way! I have yet to really test out the colours on my eyes but from swatches, they look great. Perhaps, I should be using this for my next outing!

I intend to get more of these if there should be more sprees for Jesse's Girl's products.

MAC Mineralize Eyeshadow Duo

If you've been following my blog, you'll know this is my first ever MAC eyeshadow!

I'm not sure about the rest of you but I do like this eyeshadow but to the certain point only. I live the taupe colour but NOT the gold colour.


The taupe side is smooth but for the gold side, it feels chalky. It could be due to the glitters in it. Luckily I did not make another impulsive buy on their other Mineralize Eyeshadows. Perhaps I should try their other eyeshadows.

Let's decide in time to come.

Oh, ya... the white swatch is from NYX The Ultimate Pearl Shadow. Refer to later pictures for more reviews.

NYX The Ultimate Pearl Shadow

I got the colour White Pearl and loving it. LOLX! This eyeshadows come in pretty handy especially if you wanna brighten up your inner eyes or even if you wanna make your eyes look like there's 3D effect or something like that!

On top of that, it can be used as highlighter too!

I love it!

I doubt if you can still find it elsewhere because I heard this line will be stopped, I don't know if the news is true or not. Swatch is earlier in this entry. Roll your cursor up!

Shiseido Maquillage Eyes Creator 3D

The shade I've gotten is in BR356 and it retails at RM160 if I'm not mistaken. Best of all, I didn't spend a single penny on this palette as this is a Christmas present in 2009 from my heartless brother.

Wait... Stupid sister, heartless brother - they rhymes! Hahahaha...

I'm still very much in love with this aside loving my UD's Naked. Well... it's a complete palette, no mistake. It comes with additional shimmers if you love shimmer and yeah, with gel liner as well!


If I'm done with all the colours in this palette, I'm gonna go and get refills!

Lip Glosses and Colours Mania!

I've been stocking up on my lip glosses and colours lately even though I have a tonnes of them in my collection already. Well, Stage is having sales and sprees are irresistible, alright?!

Lemme show you part of what I have and digging!


The first picture is taken with flash while the second one is without flash.

I guess I'm a collector. Hahaha... not a garbage collector yet!

Anyway, off to sleep!

Physicians Formula Beauty Story

If you'd ask me, I am insane because I so feel like doing shopping right now.

Yes, shopping no mistake but the thing is... I wanna do shopping at Ulta but sadly, there's no Ulta in Malaysia. Sadder still, nobody is doing Ulta spree now. Why, oh, why?

I'm so in love with Physicians Formula, especially after trying their loose powder and also gel liners. Muahahahaha... I love drugstore products.

So, I think, right now, I have a totally new wishlist coming up - I've gotta find a way to marry a millionaire or else, nobody is going to pay for my sprees. Hahahaha... Ah, just kidding, don't take it to heart because I am realistic but not materialistic. End of story.

Hence, I shall start off my story right now.

Once upon a time, there's an ugly girl... So, she thought to herself, "I need something to make myself prettier."

One day, as she was looking at her reflection in the mirror, she thought to herself again, "I need cosmetics but I can't afford to spend on high-end brands. Luckily there are drugstores to the rescue!"

She adored girls with blushing pink cheeks, hence, blusher is a MUST in her wishlist. Looking at the adorable PF's Powder Palette Multi-Colored Blush in Blushing Berry, she took out her notebook and wrote it down, "I want this!"


Then, she looked at the price - USD$12.49 and thought, "Geez... that is too expensive for a blush! If only I could find something cheaper!"

Not long later, she came across this - Organic Wear 2-in-1 Bronzer & Blush!


"I need a bronzer to define my features! This is perfect! A blush with bronzer!" she was happy again! Price? It's USD$13.95 but look out for discounts!

"Geez... I don't like my eyes... I need shimmers and colours to brighten them up or else I'll look like a zombie out of the coffin!" she said to herself.


"Perfect! PF's Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing Shadow & Liner for Pop Collection at USD$10.99 is just perfect but I want more than one!" she was greedy but at the same time, kind-hearted.

*blush, blush*

To intensify those eyeshadows, she would need eyeliners!


At USD$10.99 each, PF's Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing Gel CreamLiners are super worth it!

"Imma gonna get those!" again, she was greedy but down-to-earth.

"There is just one last thing to be done - mascaras!" she said, "I need PF's Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing Mascara Duo is perfect!" Oh, yeah, it's USD$10.99 each!


She walked out of the drugstore...

Empty-handed.

She let out a long sigh, "I want a lot of things but I can't afford to buy all those for now. Perhaps, in near future, when I'm earning enough, I shall come back again."

End of story.

Hahahaha... are you all entertained yet?

I'm going out now, update soon!

I wish it's Christmas everyday!

Update - NYX products can now be bought at Colours Cosmetics if you are from Malaysia and Singapore!

But even if it's not Christmas, you can still give yourself a little treat from time to time but still, make sure it doesn't burn your pocket, alright?

I've finally gotten my parcel after waiting for close to 1.5 months.


I went to the post office to collect it yesterday and ended up having myself tailed by this Pakistani psycho, wanting me to bring him to Chow Kit. Perhaps he thought I looked like some kinda prostitute, who knows? Fuck his life! Why would a prostitute wear a super long t-shirt with 3/4 pants and walking about in daylight? Fuck his life - for being gatal at his old age and for trying to hook me up!

I'll leave that for another day.

So, basically, my ELF, ULTA and NYX orders came on the same day and I love every bit of it! The sad thing is, certain orders are already out of stock, hence they refunded me.


Can you believe all the items above do not even reach RM40 inclusive of postage and mind you, all of them are from US - US budget products, okay and not the high-end products!

Happy, happy!!!
I've been raving for ULTA's automatic eyeliner for years and finally I've gotten it after so long and the best of all, it's just RM7.65 only - cheaper than our lousy Silky Girl eyeliner that costs RM13 or RM14!

Lemme show you some of the swatches of the products.

~ Copper, Black & Gold from NYX and Silver from ULTA ~

The size of the eyeliners from NYX is JUMBO, okay, jumbo! Meaning, BIG! Hahaha... and best of all, it was only RM5.60 each when I've gotten it!

Next in line would be swatches from ELF Cosmetics.


Priced at USD$1 per item, who wouldn't rave it? I don't know about others but for me, the blusher and bronzing powder are pigmented enough.

The only setback would be the blusher is way too powdery. You dip your brush into it and everything will turn powdery. With only USD$1 per item, there's no complain - cheaper and better than Daiso's blushers.

Now, come the deng, deng, deng... My favourite products ever...


Finally, gotten this palette! Hahaha... refer to my previous post regarding how much I want Jazz Night. Whheeee... Now you all can envy me. Die-die must pose with it.

I wouldn't say all the colours in the palette are great but for the price of USD$10, it's cheap enough!

The BEST thing of all...

I've gotten this for FREE!

Now, you know Angel is not filthy rich. Sometimes, I splurge and sometimes, I get free stuffs and sometimes, I swap my unused cosmetics with another person.

Ooooh... look at the swatches!


Gorgeous colours, ain't it?

Anyway, I've created a look using this palette - will update tomorrow or so!

Lastly, happy be-early Christmas to myself - there will be more be-early Christmas-es to come until the exact day!

My crazy raves!

Darn... When it comes to cosmetics, for sure I'll always go mad and then, you can see me spending like MAD over something that I don't even need to own but, but, but...

I love cosmetics and I admit - I'm not a high maintenance girl, so what?!

I've been wanting certain items from the US and UK market for such a long time already but due to their high prices, I always change my mind at the eleventh hour.

Lemme tell you, lemme tell you - I've just placed orders on the following products and *screams, screams, screams* I'm going to get them from the US shopping spree soon!

ULTA Automatic Eyeliner - USD$1 only after 85% discount!

ELF Natural Radiance Blusher in Glow & Shy - USD$1 and that is the price before 60% discount!

ELF Healthy Glow Bronzing Powder in Luminance - USD$1 before 60% discount!

Altogether, I didn't even spend up to RM50 for all the products, now you tell me, worth it or not? Hahaha... I know, it's SUPER worth it, okay?

I know after this you all will hate me and my crazy cravings for cosmetics! I still have a list of products I've set my eyes on but trying very hard NOT to buy them because I don't need them!

#1 - Urban Decay Ammo Shadow Box - USD$38

#2 - Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil - USD$17

#3 - NYX 10 Color Shadow Runway in Jazz Night, Champagne & Caviar and also Strike a Pose - USD$8 each

I know I'm a cosmetic-geek but what can I do? I need to doll myself up like Tsubasa Masuwaka. Am I not, right?

Now, can anyone go out there and fetch me my Santa so that he can bring me all these for Christmas this year?
