They are part of the Sugary Trap Collection that was recently released by Majolica Majorca (sub-brand of Shiseido from Japan.<br /><br />Each Puff de Cheek blush is housed in a tin can packaging that includes a cute powder puff topped with a ribbon.<br /></div><br /><p align="center"></p><br /><p align="center"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 385px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 270px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610460115602378514" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-d1V_9_XlfvA/Tdxbv-j6DxI/AAAAAAAAA5k/rO7Naq6q7Tg/s400/mmmacaroons.JPG" />These macaroon-looking blushers come in 4 pretty shades:<br />Peach (PK301), Apricot (OR302), Strawberry (PK303) and Vanilla (82)<br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 198px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 259px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610198183033904514" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-09HApdUJXQM/TdtthftHHYI/AAAAAAAAA4c/UXUrzZzY6Rc/s400/mm.JPG" />And because I’m into orange shades of lippies lately, I got myself apricot macaroon.

And it's quite worthy to note that orange and tangerine shades have been the most noticeable trend for the season.</div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Now i know what you're thinking. :) Yes the summer is over, but can't we extend the orange fever? I've rediscovered my love with orange/ tangerine shades of lipsticks and i think this made a nice change from the usual pinks. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Some recommend MAC Morange as the best shade of orange lipstick to try. But since MAC counters aren't accessible to my place, and frugal as i am, i have to look for other cheap alternatives. Like this recent discovery- Aido Regular Lipstick Shade #11. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Price? It's only 25pesos!

They say that it's a nice dupe to <span style="font-style: italic;">Smashbox O-Glow</span>, which made me want to try it.<br /><br />What I like about cheek tints is that they are easy to apply without using a brush. You can just dab some onto your finger and apply to your cheeks directly. I like using cheek tints during summer, when i don't feel like putting anything on my face except sunblock and cheek color.<br /><br /><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zcMnGWlwQOQ/TeSEfOIAA4I/AAAAAAAAA_U/437PLTw-Iak/s1600/sophie2.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 324px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zcMnGWlwQOQ/TeSEfOIAA4I/AAAAAAAAA_U/437PLTw-Iak/s400/sophie2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612756707512943490" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-q7-2XcsCNuM/TeSEfAc8mNI/AAAAAAAAA_M/VR31Yy_asLE/s1600/sophie3.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 337px; height: 328px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-q7-2XcsCNuM/TeSEfAc8mNI/AAAAAAAAA_M/VR31Yy_asLE/s400/sophie3.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612756703842703570" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vpUrysmHgA8/TeSEofeiSKI/AAAAAAAAA_c/ta1iOCkyhDc/s1600/sophie4.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 226px; height: 202px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vpUrysmHgA8/TeSEofeiSKI/AAAAAAAAA_c/ta1iOCkyhDc/s400/sophie4.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612756866789689506" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kw8UNgcaWd8/TeSEojGAR4I/AAAAAAAAA_s/iEpCd1z304I/s1600/sophie6.jpg"></a>Swatches:<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Rqrurg8sblI/TeSEoc8P1AI/AAAAAAAAA_k/HNGC1MGKE8w/s1600/sophie5.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 284px; height: 301px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Rqrurg8sblI/TeSEoc8P1AI/AAAAAAAAA_k/HNGC1MGKE8w/s400/sophie5.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612756866109002754" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kw8UNgcaWd8/TeSEojGAR4I/AAAAAAAAA_s/iEpCd1z304I/s1600/sophie6.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 231px; height: 269px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kw8UNgcaWd8/TeSEojGAR4I/AAAAAAAAA_s/iEpCd1z304I/s400/sophie6.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612756867760539522" border="0" /></a>I can't tell if it's exactly a dupe for Smashbox O-Glow because i don't own one.

It’s sleek and sophisticated-looking than I expected. I find the mirror small and a little useless because the palette is hard to hold up and use due to its size. It also includes two dual sponge tip applicators, but I prefer using eye brushes instead.<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">The size of each eye shadow is about the size of a dime- plenty in my opinion, as I've never used up an entire shadow of any color or kind. True as described, the palette is nearly a 50/50 mix of matte and satin with slight shimmer. Most shades are very pigmented, especially the darker and brighter shades. They can be applied wet for a more dramatic look and to make it longer lasting. Some colors can be a little chalky but proper blending and use of a primer can help that.<br /></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-tmR8A-E9i1o/TeSWAYRzNLI/AAAAAAAABCU/_JWnxizIEjo/s1600/signature.bmp"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 64px; height: 42px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-tmR8A-E9i1o/TeSWAYRzNLI/AAAAAAAABCU/_JWnxizIEjo/s400/signature.bmp" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612775968871756978" border="0" /></a>Czelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08368349972822464329noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2013698914802377111.post-12820131064674185222011-06-02T13:49:00.000+08:002011-06-02T13:47:45.895+08:00Barbie Pink Glam Lip Frosting vs. MAC Viva Glam Gaga<div style="text-align: justify; ">I saw this pale pink lip gloss at Watsons and thought that it would be nice dupe to my favorite MAC Viva Glam Gaga.</div><div style="text-align: justify; "><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify; ">It's a steal for only PhP99 (about $2)!</div><div style="text-align: justify; "><br /></div><div style="text-align: center; "><img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-HEWIyJZNCIU/TeSRlMwDVfI/AAAAAAAABBM/on3JxyfJq3I/s400/barbie1.jpg" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 243px; height: 400px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612771103874438642" /><br /></div><div><div style="text-align: center; ">So cute and very easy to use with its retractable packaging,</div><div style="text-align: center; ">this hottie brings out the "Barbie in me". ;)</div></div><div style="text-align: center; "><br /></div><img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-93cdvKPnOBQ/TeSRlctvHQI/AAAAAAAABBU/T8iYMxNZ7j0/s400/barbie2.jpg" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612771108159692034" /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Side to side with my MAC Viva Glam Gaga lipstick:</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-iGANomMLfFM/TecfUHzxqOI/AAAAAAAABEc/DafCQnLt320/s400/glamvsglam.jpg" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 357px; height: 400px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5613489891094669538" /><img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-FwiXKSfvVsI/TecfURFRhwI/AAAAAAAABEk/XvbuJdOpHuk/s400/glamvsglam1.jpg" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 319px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5613489893583980290" /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The color pay-off is sheer because it's more of a lip gloss.

Add a small amount of your favorite facial cleaner directly to the brush head prior to application. Use the medium or firm brush head once a week to exfoliate dead skin cells and expose a fresh healthy layer of skin. If you have sensitive skin, use the softest brush head at all times. Keep your entire exfoliation process under one minute.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">2. Use the soft brush head for daily polishing. This should be a quick process kept under one minute to lightly remove dead skin cells prior to makeup application.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">3. Once your skin is exfoliated and polished, proceed with the application of your favorite moisturizer and makeup. You will notice that the polishing process will help your moisturizer deeply penetrate your skin, which will create the perfect base for flawless makeup application!</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">4. Adjust this routine as needed. Once you get started, you can customize the intervals between exfoliation and polishing to fit your needs and your skin type. Moderation is key!</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">CLEANSE IT!</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Now is the time to get back to natural skin by efficiently removing all makeup residues from your skin!</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">1. Always use the softest brush head during the cleansing process.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">2. Remove excess makeup prior to cleansing with facial wipes containing makeup remover.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">3. Add a small amount of your favorite facial cleanser to the softest brush head and gently work it onto your skin using the Sigma Beauty Cleansing and Polishing Tool. Keep your cleansing process under one minute.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">4.
