A shopping list??? All my >9 reviewed product!

I have been blogging since February 2015. That’s 5 years! FIVE YEARS!!! Wow. In those five years, I have written 98 reviews. Yes, I counted (Lol, if you do decide to re-check then let me know!). And in those reviews, very few products have gotten over a 9/10 rating. So here they are! All of 15 them!

Like all of my reviews, these are my own opinions. You may have had bad experiences with these products and that’s ok.

Also these are in reverse order. From the oldest to the newest (because that’s how I looked through each of my reviews! HAHAHA!).


Also also, I am only sharing products that are still available for purchase.

Paula’s Choice for Men (PC4Men) Face Wash
I have given few products over 9 rating, I have given far less “no cons”. This was one of it!

Urban Decay All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray
This is one of those products that I’ve repurchased. Multiple times. Enough said!!!

Daiso Detergent for Puff and Sponge
If you have to try a single thing on this list, try this one! SERIOUSLY!!!

MAC Viva Glam I Lipstick
My first MAC review. I was so proud to post this! MAC lipsticks are some of the VERY best! No question!

The Body Shop Blusher Brush
The Body Shop brushes are pro quality! I wish they would come out with a wider range.

Sephora 10HR Wear Perfection Foundation
Honestly! This foundation has a WIDE shade range!!! Do try it! It is very combination skin friendly!

Maybelline Hypersharp Power Black Liquid Eyeliner
I love liquid liners. And I prefer ones with brush tips as opposed to a felt tip. Which isn’t really what most people prefer. Hmmmmppphhh…

Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge
The introduction of these expanding sponges meant to be used by dampening it with water has CHANGED the makeup game!!!

Althea Milk Peel Cream Mask
FIVE STAR review with 222 reviews on the Althea official website! That should be enough to convince you to at least try… TIP: I usually wait for more than 60 seconds. 😛

A’Bloom Mask
Trust me, I am just following order of post. This is not a promotion for Althea. A’Bloom is a sister brand to Althea Collection (i.e. the previous product brand). They both are Althea’s brand of products. The review includes more than just the mask but not all the products have a 9 rating. BTW, these masks are cheap too! CHEAP!

Rimmel Stay Matte Long Lasting Press Powder
This made my all time fave list of products! Need I say more? And cheap! GOD SO CHEAP!!!

Zoeva 227 Luxe Soft Definer/ Blender Brush
This is part goat hair so discretion advised. Otherwise, they are simply the best for the price. Freaking John McLean loves this exact brush!

L.A. Girl HD Pro.Conceal Concealer
This product is so hard to find in a physical store! I am very iffy about shopping online! I hate it!

NYX HD Studio Photogenic Concealer
NYX STORES ARE CLOSING IN MALAYSIA AND THEY ARE NOT IN SEPHORA ANYMORE!!! If you can’t tell, I am frustrated.

BeautyBlender (the original!)
I love this sponge. My GOD! So good! But unless I had throwaway money I, PERSONALLY, would never repurchase this…

Zoeva 227 Luxe Soft Definer/ Blender Brush Review

Founded by Zoe Boikou, Zoeva as a brand began with only a line of makeup brushes which has now expanded to eyeshadows, lipsticks, and even blushers and highlighters. This is a review of a single brush, namely the 227 blending brush.

The brush. (I LOVE MY NEW BACKGROUND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
The cardboard inside has some information on the brush.
Excellent packaging. Definitely made me feel like I purchased something high end.
The handle with the brand and product code engraved.
Bristles up close.
It is slightly flatten with bristles that are frayed out to allow good eyeshadow blending.


Description:
Makeup brush intended for eyeshadow blending.
Bristles: Mix of natural (goat hair) and synthetic
Ferrule: Brass
Handle: Wood (lacquered six times)

Price: MYR 59

Where to buy: Sephora outlets nationwide and online at sephora.my

Pros:
> The brush feels and works like a high-end makeup brush.
> Extremely sturdy and durable.
> Blends out eyeshadow beautifully!
> Having had it for a couple of years, traveled with it and also used and washed it so many times, it looks almost as good as new as evident from the pictures.
> Soft bristles.

Cons:
> Did initially shed a little but when it stopped shedding, it stopped for good.
> Price isn’t affordable but the brush is definitely worth the price.
> Natural bristles require more care than synthetic brushes.

Rating: 9.1/10
I LOVE THIS BRUSH! I actually wanted to test out Zoeva as a brand and so I purchased the brush that I had only one of in my collection at that time (an eyeshadow blending brush). Definitely worth the money spent! I am actually eyeing a classic set. If you’re a makeup artist or simply just love makeup, it is definitely worth investing in it!
