So today I tried out a bunch of Laneige's stuff that I had won earlier this week.

First up, the Snow Crystal Dual Base SPF22 PA+.
It is a brightening primer, one of the popular products from the Snow Crystal range.

I really don't like the dispenser, because it is hard to control the amount no matter how gentle you press the pump. On first sight, the base seem to give my skin a white cast but with good blending, it gave my face an instant glow with its pearly residue.

After easy-blending with the balm-type brightener, my dark circles seemed to have disappeared, leaving my eyes looking refreshed. It is also very hydrating, making it easy to apply my concealor afterwards.

The oil-control is fairly good, at least it didn't leave me looking shiny!

Rating: 4/5

I also have big raves for their mascara & eyeshadow.
Hopefully you remember the Guerlain loot that I'd won last month.
The Le 2 de Guerlain Mascara was clumpy, that I wasn't able to apply second coat with ease.
Whereas I have no problem with High Perm Curling Mascara, plus it doesn't smudge no matter how many times I yawn!

I have this annoying yawning problem when I'm out, which reduces my eyeliner or eyeshadow to nothing within 3 hours. Take today for instance, my turquoise eyeshadow is almost gone, but the mascara on my bottom lashes are still intact✔

Rating: 4.5/5

Guerlain's Ombre Eclat Mono Eyeshadow is a disappointment! The packaging is beautiful but the pigment is so hard to pick up! It took me 3x the effort to get the desired effect on my lids!

I managed to apply Laneige's skin beige shimmery eyeshadow with just 2 applications. It was the only shade I used today, since I'd emphasize on my lower lashes.

Rating: 3/5

Mental note: Apply more primer to my lower lashes, because I can't stop yawning!! (つ(エ)⊂)

  • LOL on the fact about your mom. Menopausal Devil, hahaha. You're awesome! I totally get what you're talking about with the tearing up thing. It happens to me to. It totally ruins your eye makeup!

    I love your EOTD sweety. Your eyes look amazing with winged eyeliner. Thanks for the reviews!<3
  • Thanks hun! Yawning is a big problem, that I can't get it to stop. The moment I get on the subway I would yawn like every 10mins lol!

    You should def. get the base, though I'm still in love with Maybelline's Angelfit primer
