Hot beauty product : "Dot the I" Make-up Remover Swabs

Dot the I Makeup Remover Swabs are single-use cotton swabs containing eye make-up remover. Each swab contains a pre-measured amount, so simply bend and snap one end off to get the product moving, swipe under eyes, and toss. Voila! No more spitting on your Q-tips to touch up your eye make-up. (You know you've done it).

Note: When you use a swab, make sure to gently tap the side you will be using against your finger to get the make-up remover moving into the cotton, and wipe off any excess. This product is perfect for at home or on-the-go. I even brought one to an event for a mid-party touch up.

Jane Iredale, the frontrunner in mineral makeup, has consistently brought us products that use natural ingredients. I've been a longtime fan of her PurePressedR Base Mineral Foundations. The eye make-up remover in Dot the I Makeup Remover Swabs is alcohol-free, and safe for contact lens wearers and sensitive eyes. Organic ingredients like lavender flower water, algae extract, and aloe leaf extract will calm, condition, and nourish the tender skin around the eyes.

Isnt this genius ? For sure its a bit more expensive than the normal Q-tips but dont you want to try it yourself ? You can just order it from here Jane Iredale Dot The i Makeup Remover Swabs

Smudging eyeliner ...how to fix it ?

Being Asian, a lot of us have trouble with liner smudged or disappeared after having it on for a few hours.
So what should we do to avoid that ?

Lets follow these 2 steps , hopefully it can help you to achieve a better long lasting look :

Step 1 :  Before applying eyeliner, its better to use an eye primer like cream concealer or cream eyeshadow

• Using cream concealer : Apply all over your lids with a matching skin-tone color. Blend well & set it with loose powder for longer lasting
• Using cream eyeshadow : The best I've tried so far is MAC paints or paint pots . Apply a neutral color ( e.g.: Bare canvas paint or Bare study paint pot ) with the same manner. Blend well. 

Step 2 :  Use a waterproof pencil liner, gel eyeliner or liquid liner .

For us, pencil liner isnt an ideal solution. Its only great when you actually want to smudge it with eyeshadow to create smokey eyed look. But if you cant use liquid liner or you think its too harsh-looking for you, you can try waterproof pencil liner . Then use an angle brush (i.e.: MAC 263 or 266) dipped in black eyeshadow to set the line. It'll last longer than usual.


You can also try cake liner or gel eyeliner (e.g.: Bobbi Brown gel eyeliner ). Using a pointy eyeliner brush or an angle brush to dip into the gel liner ( coat both sides of the brushes ). Wipe off the excess on tissue before applying to eyes.

For me, I prefer to use liquid liner, especially MAC liquidlast . I can wear it all day long and  not even worried for a second that it will smear or disappear. If you're scared to look too harsh, just line it closely to your lashline and keep it thin.

Small tip : To remove this, you really have to use Waterproof eyemakeup remover ( the one with oil and water mixed)

NARS Orgasm Illuminator

 As always, Nars is one of my favorite brands. I'm so excited to see the new product is a part of NARS Orgasm franchise which already includes Blush, Lip gloss, The Multiple & Nail polish.

Orgasm illuminator can be applied all over the face or used as a highlighter, over or under makeup. May also be mixed with foundation. Apply to face, neck or shoulders. It gives your skin a glow that you feel like you just come back from a sunny vacation
