Shu Uemura Gloss Unlimited AT 20G Reviews and Swatches

Hi ladies!

Sorry for not updating my blog for such a long time - I was extremely busy last quarter.
Today I am going to make reviews and swatches on the Shu Uemura Gloss Unlimited.


♥ Shu Uemura Gloss Unlimited AT 20G (Dazzling Gold) ♥

Shu Uemura Gloss Unlimited in AT 20G
with just some random beauty stuff I bought this month. :)

Nail Nail Botanical Rose is a nail treatment cream I bought from my local Japanese market. I am in love with it now :3

3CE is a makeup brand from Korea. I will be doing reviews on their products shortly!





It might be shocked to see gloss in such yellowish gold color but the gold is actually sheer. It adds a beautiful glittery shine on your lips and makes the lips look plumper and fuller.
The lip gloss itself is lightweight, not sticky at all. (which is important to me!) And it is moisturizing and won't dehydrate your lips after a few hours of wear like some of the glosses did.

As I mentioned above it is a sheer gold glittery gloss so it looks really nice to pair with lipsticks.

I think it will be nice to pair with some reds too!

Japanese Fashion Magazine Model - AMO

Afternoon ladies ♥

Does anyone heard about the style "Aomoji Kei (青文字系)"? It is a branch of "Harajuku Kei (原宿系)". Aomoji Kei actually refers to those girls who do not really care how boys think, but just dress in the way they love. They dress in colorful clothes, in my point of view they usually pair up with something from Lolita and Punk fashion too.

♥ Kyary Pamyu Pamyu きゃりーぱみゅぱみゅ
the singer of "PONPONPON" is a model of Harajuku Kei.

♥ AYAMO
Model from "Zipper", dressing in Aomoji Kei fashion.

















So, today I am going to post some beautiful photos of AMO, a model from the Aomoji Kei magazine "Zipper"!

♥ JUNE 2012 issue of Zipper
Kyary Pamyu Pamyu as the cover girl. 
















When comparing to many other models from Aomoji Kei, AMO put in more lolita elements in her dressing, hair style and nails.
She has a baby like face which is super adorable.♥ Just like an angel.

Her current hair color ♥
Ash grey with highlights of lavender.
LOVE LOVE LOVE!


















 
She changes her hair color quite often.
Such light and pop color can't stay on bleached hair for long time.
I once dyed my hair into pink and purple but it just faded out in one to two weeks :(

Kitten hair style.
I love her face expression :D sooo cute. ♥

 

The advertisement for Harajuku Kei fashion brand - Candy Stripper.

 

She is really cute with her two ponytails. Awwwww ♥











Usually Harajuku Kei and Aomoji Kei is not my fav fashion, I used to prefer Gal (Gyaru) fashion, but she is just so cute. :)
I did order Zipper every month in Hong Kong but it is kind of expensive here...

Do you like her and her style?

SHISEIDO Maquillage True Rouge BE748 reviews and swatches

Hi all ladies! ♥
Greetings from Enya. This is my first time writing an English blog so please forgive my poor English. :')
Before going to the product please let me slightly introduce myself.
Enya from Hong Kong, and I am now studying in CA! Nice weather comparing to Hong Kong and I loveeeee this place. California Girls are really sweet and lovely.
I have warm-undertone, fair to medium skin color, dry and sensitive, which makes me had a hard time applying foundation in winter that bothers me a lot.

Guess all of you are more interested in the lipstick more than me lol let's go to the True Rouge now!


Maquillage is a line by SHISEIDO, the famous traditional Japanese makeup brand. From their website and advertisement we can see the brand is mainly design for feminine working ladies. The color is wearable for everyday which I appreciate a lot.













I did not find many results so I chose to go by official website's swatches and picked BE748.
I ordered from ICHIBANKAO and it is 4000YEN which is approximately 50USD. This is really pricey but the actual set price is lower. This fee includes international shipping from Japan and I received the product in a week which is really fast. But I may not be using ichibankao for Maquillage products since there should be cheaper sellers out there :(

Quick look of my cosmetics I received today.

from left to right:

♥ THREE glam touch lip gloss #33 PRECIOUS POSSESSION (will be talking about it later on :))

♥ Maquillage True Rouge BE748

♥ MeMeMe Boho Balm Cheek & Lip Tint in Coral Taupe (I ordered it from a buyer on eBay from UK)

Under warm yellow lights (night)










 
Please note that all swatches are taken at night, maybe not really actually shows the real color :\
I will try to make better ones later on and sorry about that.
My bare lips color is a bit dull and red, the lipstick covers my original color really well and it is moisturizing. I did not try on for long time since I am going to sleep, so no data about how long it will stay. But one of the sell point of this lipstick is strong staying power so I guess no problem about it :D!
I paired with my Maybelline clear gloss as shown and loveeee how it looks on my lips!
BE748 is more orange than I expected, but still a really nice color. It will sure be a great go-to lip color in fall and winter time! Super feminine and gentle beige lip color, goes great with many outfits and looks.

Though it is not as impressed as the THREE lip gloss, I will still rate it 4/5 stars. ;) Maybe I will fall in love if I tried this on with full makeup.....not sure though lol

Hope you will like my blog ♥
