No more saggy eyes after party!

posted by:

I was so intrigued by this product. I wanted to have a first hand on it but I can’t coz I am scrimping like mad now. This is one of the geniuses’ product by MAC, it’s called Fast Response eye cream and the effect is like what it is named after – almost immediate. So after a whole night of partying, all we need is to slap some on our eyes. It absorbs quickly and repair the dryness in our eyes area. Cool it sounds :) Can’t wait to get one for myself :p

vitamin C micro refinerIt’s good to use, easy to apply, refreshed feeling it will leave you after just one wash. The tiny particles in the cream exfoliates and removes dead cells on our skin, almost immediately. The wash is definitely gentle to skin, not coarse. The wash is complemented with its toning effect as it doesn’t leave the skin dry after the wash. It’s a good investment, something you will not regret buying.

Olive Body Butter

Nothing can beat this when it comes to body butter. Slap some on both hands, legs and body to feel its immediate work in moisturizing the dry, thirsty skin. In fact, olive proves its high standing in preserving and restoring youthfulness and beauty with its richness in Vitamin E and antioxidant. The layer of moisturizer stays comfortably on the skin without leaving the waxy or oily texture when we touch our hands. Its fragrance is definitely not pungent with ripe olive but oozing the creamy, soft olive fragrance.

If you’re looking for body lotion, think no further but to walk into any The Bodyshop counter for one of this.

Volume: 200ml

Application: Anytime, best after shower and before sleep. Just apply direct onto the skin and massage it.

Rating: 4.5 / 5.0

I really can’t wait for it to come. But as said before, it was out in the US for just a few months. So, I guess we’ll have to wait for at least 6 more months before it hits Malaysia market.

Step by step to creating a basic 3D flower petal.

1. Start out by using a very small brush.

2. Dip your brush into the monomer.

3. Be sure to wipe all excess monomer out of your brush. The brush must be very dry.

4. Dip the brush into the powder. You need very little powder, so don’t hold your brush in the powder for too long.

5. The ball of arylic should be very small and not dripping off of the brush. The ball should appear smooth.

6. Place the ball onto the nail.

7. Using the tip of your brush, drag from the center of the ball to make a point.

8. Using the tip of your brush, make an indentation down the center of the petal. This will create depth, making the petal appear more realistic.

Now, let’s see how it’s done.
