[Tips & Tricks] Sweet Summer with Nars Adult Swim - Summer 2014 Collection...


Still remember my Nars Week series last month? Yes, you get it right, I'm still not over Nars & don't think I'll ever be, lol Tell me who on the right mind can resist the fun & fabulous line up they came up with every seasons? Not me obviously... Looking at Nars Adult Swim - Summer 2014 collection, I feel like seeing a cosmetics interpretation of synchronized swimming!!! Everything is striking, captivating & fascinating, complete with some interesting combination I never think of =)

Instead of just reviewing it, this time around I'm very much inspired and wanna incorporated the summer spirit by creating 2 different looks based on my 2 alter ego; Sweet Summer / Sweet Ayna & Sexy Summer / Sexy Ayna, hihi =P I guess I'm neither sweet nor sexy and the best thing I can hope for is pretending to be both XD So in this post lovelies, I'm gonna spill my secret on how I can fool someone into thinking I'm a sweet girl by using stuff from Nars Adult Swim - Summer 2014 collection @_@


Since Nars didn't include blushers and lipsticks in their Nars Adult Swim - Summer 2014 collection, I'm using Nars Blush in Amour & Nars Sheer Lipstick in Mayflower that I previously blog about to achieve the Sweet Summer / Sweet Ayna look. For the eyes, I choose to play with Nars Lost Coast Duo Eyeshadow and Nars Baalbek Eye Paint from Nars Adult Swim - Summer 2014 collection. I don't know why but they seems to fit each other perfectly, don't you feel the same way too?

Nars Lost Coast Duo Eyeshadow 
4g [RM120.00] 
★★★

According to Nars Cosmetics, the Lost Coast Duo Eyeshadow is a modern yet unique color combination [golden pewter + lilac snow] that can be worn alone or together and feature micro fine powders that's highly pigmented, longwearing and crease resistant. With colours that glides on smoothly and blends effortlessly, you can go from subtle to smouldering by using this fashion forward pairing! It's also multifunctional; you can shade, line or highlight your eyes with this duo eyeshadow.

Nars Baalbek Eye Paint 
2.5g [RM95.00] 
★★★

Nars Baalbek Eye Paint on the hand is described as a brilliant pot of high impact bronze pigment in an innovative silky, weightless gel formula. Rich, hyper saturated shades that dry down quickly in long lasting finishes from icy metallics to matte, this product can line, highlight, shade and define with modern artistic versatility. Last for up to 18 hours, you can be bold and use it alone or layer it with different texture eyeshadows to create intensity you desire.


MY VERDICT : When I use the Nars Lost Coast Duo Eyeshadow for the first time, I beginning to think it's a lost cause for me... The colours didn't show up well and looks quite chalky on my eyelids... Then I remember that I didn't wear any eye primer beforehand and try applying it again! Voila, the shades finally make an appearance although not as pigmented as I want it to be, still looks pretty good to me =) I like the fact that the powdery texture is easy to work with & great for highlighting.

But the star here is definitely Nars Baalbek Eye Paint! It really deliver in terms of giving longlasting, intensely pigmented colour that can multifunction as an eyeliner or eyeshadow. The golden-like particles that comes with it makee it looks even more gorgeous up close I'm in love with its fluid, creamy consistency that fortunately make this eye paint very easy to control. I can see myself using this on daily basis, it's an edgier alternative from the plain black liner =P


How I'm using Nars Lost Coast Duo Eyeshadow and Nars Baalbek Eye Paint to create my Sweet Summer / Sweet Ayna look? It's very simple actually, even non makeup users can pull off this look without breaking a sweat!!! Here's the guide on how to achieve this look :-


STEP 1 : Prime your eyes with your favorite eye primer
STEP 2 : Apply the Golden Pewter shade from Nars Lost Coast Duo Eyeshadow all over your eyelids
STEP 3 : Use the Lilac Snow shade from Nars Lost Coast Duo Eyeshadow on your lower lashline
STEP 4 : Line your upper lashline with Nars Baalbek Eye Paint
STEP 5 : Complete the eye-do by coating your lashes with black mascara
STEP 6 : Sweep Nars Blush in Amour lightly on your cheeks
STEP 7 : Finish the look with Nars Sheer Lipstick in Mayflower


What do you think of the look, am I sweet enough for you? Well, I'm very happy with how it turns out, it's soft & wearable just the way I like it ^_^ You can glam it up by adding more Nars Baalbek Eye Paint or tone it down by switching the role of shades from Nars Lost Coast Duo Eyeshadow instead. For more details, kindly visit Nars Cosmetics official website or make your way to their flagship store @ Pavilion, KL. Until then, stay tune for my Sexy Summer / Sexy Ayna look lovelies, adieu~

There's something about handmade beauty and bath products that always drew me in like a magnet, maybe it's the thought that someone out there made and pack it with love feels kind of special to me =) I'm weird like that I know, lol When I came across Earth Care Soaps couple of weeks ago, I was smitten at first sight!!! Everything screams yummy & delicious, I'm having a hard time to pick just one, so I end up with 2 body scrub + 1 lip scrub + 1 lip balm + 1 soap, hehe =P However today, it's gonna be all about the body scrub... I'll review the rest when I'm done playing with them okie, wink2

Earth Care Organic Handmade Body Scrub - Warm Embrace

★★★

According to Earth Care, their Warm Embrace Body Scrub is conceive from the combination of organic ingredients such as brown sugar which is known to be a natural humectant that draws moisture to the skin, ginger which is famous for its high antioxidants property that can protect your skin against free radical damage and of course lemon, which not only great as an astringent but work wonders to clear skin imperfections and even out skin tone.

This product has to be store in a cool, dry place and good for up to 3 months without refrigeration. If you want to expand the lifespan, you can always keep it in your refrigerator. 

MY VERDICT : I really love how adorable the packaging is and how the scent reminds me of a dessert I tasted back in Phuket!!! I’m so tempted to consume it but thank god my sister stopped me just in the nick of time, lol What I like the most about this scrub is the way it feels against my body… Even when I rub rigorously, no harm is done to my delicate skin ^_^ The only downside of this scrub that I noticed is it doesn’t really deliver in giving me the whitening effect as indicates on the label =( Perhaps I’m not using it frequent enough, I’ll definitely give more love to this scrub from now on, hee~

Earth Care Organic Handmade Body Scrub - Keep Calm & Relax 
150g [RM24.00]
 ★★★

In-sync with its name, Earth Care Keep Calm & Relax Body Scrub is made from soothing and aromatic key ingredients like Portuguese sea salt that’s rich in minerals and good at removing toxin, lavender which has various therapeutic value including calming and natural antiseptic, chamomile to promote general relaxation and relieve sore muscles and last but not least oatmeal to soften, clean and moisturize your skin.

MY VERDICT : I have nothing but love for this gem _❤ It's reasonably price, smells so divine and really great at removing my dead skin cells!!! What more can a girl ask for, right? =D The texture might not be as fine but I do see remarkable differences whenever I'm using this body scrub. Since it's a little bit grainy, try to avoid using it on your sensitive parts and focus more on rough area like your feet, knee or elbow... For those who have sensitive skin, you might want to go easy with this. Other than that, Earth Care Keep Calm & Relax Body Scrub is definitely a keeper for me @_@

Soft & Clean with Mary Kay Hydrating Body Range...


Don't you just hate the itchy and dry feeling left after you shave your legs or your underarms area? I think every female can relate to that situation... So yes, I'm pretty excited to learn that Mary Kay coming up with body wash that can double up as shaving cream!!! What makes it even more special, they have Hydrating Lotion in the range as well to act as the after care for your skin after shaving too. After all, who can resist such a cute duo, right? 2 is always better than 1 in my book, wink2

Mary Kay 2-in-1 Body Wash & Shave 
192ml [RM55.00] 
★★★☆☆

According to Mary Kay, the Mary Kay 2-in-1 Body Wash & Shave is formulated with Anthemis Nobilis Flower Extract, a soothing agent that's known for it's calming and soothing property besides Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract which is an antioxidant that's included to help protect the skin from free radicals generated by the environment. Not only that, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract is also added into the mixture to condition, attract and retain the moisture of your skin.

Just like any other body wash, you can apply it with water to enjoy it during your bath or if you would like to use it as a shaving cream, simply wet the area to be shaved and add a small amount directly to the skin before lather it up. You can shave as usual and rinse clean after that. Afraid not, it's clinically tested for skin irritants and allergies so your skin is pretty much in a very good hands.

MY VERDICT : Honestly, this is my first time using a body wash/shaving cream so I'm not really sure what to expect in the beginning. I'll go with what I don't like first. If you're a fan of subtle scent like me, you'll be having a hard time to warm up to this body wash. It have a strong scent that I personally think suits men better. The texture on the other hand is like clear gel and foam very well with water. I truly love how it leaves my skin feeling fresh, clean & smooth after every usage, good job there =)

Mary Kay Hydrating Lotion 
192ml [RM60.00] 
★★★☆☆

Similar to Mary Kay 2-in-1 Body Wash & Shave, Mary Kay Hydrating Lotion is consist of 3 main ingredients such as Anthemis Nobilis Flower Extract, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract and Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract to calm and sooth your skin besides protecting it against the effects of free radicals from the environment. It's also equipped with Glycerin which serves as the moisturizer to provide your skin with long lasting hydration for up to 10 hours.

It's very simple to use the Mary Kay Hydrating Lotion, just apply generously all over your body and gently massage it to get the soft, supple skin you desire. To get maximum results, use Mary Kay 2-in-1 Body Wash & Shave prior to the lotion and you're on your way to your beautiful looking and moisturize skin. Ain't that a lovely thought? Hee~

MY VERDICT : I'm on the fence actually when it comes to this body lotion. It took me quite sometimes to get used to it due to the scent which is more or less smells like the body wash. I am however pretty impress by how well moisturize my skin feels every single time I apply Mary Kay Hydrating Lotion... And the best thing about it is, the hydration really last for hours!!! Did I mention how buttery smooth the texture is and how quickly it absorbs into my skin? I like it very much ^_^

If you're looking for multipurpose body products and eager to try out something new, I think Mary Kay 2-in-1 Body Wash & Shave is definitely a safe bet. Of course, it won't hurt to have the Mary Kay Hydrating Lotion as well to complete your collection coz both of them really looks pretty together, lol For more information and details, kindly visit Mary Kay official website or facebook page.

The Bright Side with L'oreal Paris White Perfect Total 10...


Having fairer and brighter skin seems to be Asian women obsession since years and years ago... I used to feel that way too but now I'm pretty much embracing what I already have, a medium skin tone that can be easily morph into slightly darker shades depends on my outdoor activities. For me, protecting my skin against the nasty UV rays or any other pollutants will always be my top priority and if I achieved a whiter skin in the process, that'll be like icing on the cake, wink2 

Of course, those with combination-oily skin like yours truly have to factor in another aspect when purchasing face cream such as will the product make our skin shine even more than usual or can it miraculously make them go away? The pain we've to go through, sigh~ I believe that's what really inspired L'oreal Paris to come up with the new L'oreal Paris White Perfect Total 10, a whitening day cream with shine free formula, it could be the answer to lots of people dilemma =)


According to L'oreal Paris, their White Perfect Total 10 was created not only to give you fairer skin but also protecting it from external aggression and excess sebum.

I also like the attention to details such as the thumb size trigger that fits my index finger perfectly, the cream light purple shade which happen to be one of my favorite color and of course the flowery fragrance, I'm loving it!!! The texture on the other hand is not as heavy as I initially think it will be and absorbs pretty well into my skin.

I've been using this cream for about 1 week now to replace my sunblock and I noticed that it did a pretty good job in protecting my skin from the sun exposure so far. I believe with continuous usage, I can have brighter and fairer skin just like L'oreal Paris promise. One thing that bothers me though, I still look shiny in the middle of the day whenever I apply this cream T_T I'm not sure weather it's because I'm not compatible with the products itself or due to any other reasons, sigh~
