Bourjois Blushes Review

Sunday, 27 July 2014

These little pot of love are one of my favourite blushers. I first discovered Bourjois on a family trip to Jakarta like how i fell crazy in love with NYX. Haha, i came home from that trip a really happy girl. These timeless blusher have been around for a long time. There are pigmented, silky and it is slightly perfumed. What really sold me about this blusher is the packaging. Its small, compact, comes with a brush and a mirror. 


1. Bourjois Blush 16 Rose Coup De Foudre
2. Bourjois Blush 92 Santal
3. Bourjois Blush 03 Brun Cuivre
4. Bourjois Blush 35 Lune D'or


There is a reason why Blushingkay is called blushingkay! I love blushes! I am always reapplying my blusher because i have this need to have colour on my face. Having a compact blusher with everything (brush + mirror) is ideal blusher for me. This blush is one of the most iconic blushes! It has been around for almost 150 years. I actually bought 6 shades, but gave away 2 because i thought i was being a little greedy. Nonetheless, these Bourjois babies are the ones i take everywhere and use most.

The texture and formula for these babies are beautiful. It somehow melts easily on my face giving me that natural wind-in-my-face-rosiness HAHA! The formula definitely holds up, i find that it can last around 6-7 hours before i need to re-apply.
I do find the formula a little dry where after a while the top bit forms a layer where i have to scrape the top off to get some colour on my brush.

Camera: LCA+ Film: Kodak 400 


Chopped 4 years of my life. I have been thinking about cutting my hair for the longest time and finally decided to just cut it off. What do i have to lose? My ends were dry as a bone and it was becoming a hassle to maintain it. Hair will grow and nothing wrong with pampering yourself at the saloon. I admit, I was a little heartbroken when i saw my hair on the floor but i decided to look at it in a way - i finished school for good and i am starting fresh. Im moving on to the next step in my life with cute hair and a cute boy. 


Sukin Skincare Range Review

Friday, 18 July 2014


Sukin is an organic all natural skincare brand from Australia. The best thing about them is that they are free from bad skin irritants like sulphates and parabens. It is suitable for all skin types and made most natural ingredients such as rose hip oil and aloe vera. It was towards my last stay in Perth, i started breaking out from stress from writing, bad eating habits and too much alcohol. I noticed my skin getting a bit dry and peeling. 

I decided to try the Sukin Skincare range. I was really lucky because at that time, the brand was on sale and i got them at a really good price which i cant remember now (sorry guys!) but even before discount, Sukin doesnt break your bank. Each bottle at 125ml each cost AUD9.95. 

I particularly LOVE the Sukin Foaming Facial Cleanser. It washes off everything (make up, dirt, oil and etc) and it smells of orange! I love anything that smells of oranges. It definitely leaves my face cleaner and fresher. My bottle is half way through and i have to wait a few months before i got back to Perth to re-stock. 

If you read my post about toners; you would know that the Hydrating Mist Toner is made for me! Its such a convenient little invention. I am not a big fan of putting toner on cotton pad and wiping it all over my face, just too much time. By far, this Hydrating Mist Toner is one the best toners i used. My skin acted up during winter in Perth, it was dry and itchy. I kept rubbing my face, it become red and irritated. The Sukin Hydrating Mist Toner really helped calm my face down and soothe my itchiness.

The Sukin Facial Moisturiser is the only one i have mixed feelings for. It worked really well for me when i was in Perth. The texture of the moisturiser is quite thick, almost lotion like. Using it here in KL was a hot mess. The moisturiser felt so heavy on my face that it become uncomfortable. I find myself half way through the night washing my face again and using my Kiels Midnight Recovery Oil. Ill save it for when my skin acts up. No doubt, if you have really dry and sensitive skin, this moisturiser will be great for you. The packaging annoys me a little...it comes in a pump bottle, where sometimes you might accidentally press out too much product. Whatever leftover product, i would rub it in at the back of my hands.

Three weeks into using this range, my skin improved tremendously. The spots cleared up and my overall complexion brighten up as well. I think it being an organic and all natural skincare definitely helped. It has definitely help calm, soothe and clear up my skin. If you are ever in Australia and have sensitive skin, i would recommend you pick this up!

Really lucky to have housemates from south of Western Australia this year. During the easter break, a few of us went down to Albany to visit Stephen! The 5 hours journey down south was pretty interesting with 7 people in the car with different taste in music. I had to listen to Linkin Park for a good one hour. Stephen took us to the beach, a whiskey distillery, the natural bridge and viewpoints. I fell in love with Albany. Albany is such a beautiful town, rich with history.
