In Love at First Sight with Guerlain ♥

I was at Shangri-la Rustan's a while ago checking out the Champale collection but I didn't find anything interesting, really. And the Guerlain counter was just right accross MAC so I head over to get myself a mini makeover...Not really though XD

02 Rose Teint


I've just been lemming for Guerlain Meteorites Pearl since forever and it was a perfect time to get to know one better ha! I asked the SA what shade would suit me better. And she recommended the 02 Beige Teint. I actually prefer the 01 Rose Teint (aka Mythic from previous version) but, well, I was just too shy to say it haha. Then she offered to apply it to me. And with the pink fluffy brush she worked her way applying on my forehead, cheeks and the bridge of my nose. Funny thing, when she was dipping the brush on the pearls, a pearl managed to escape and landed on the counter. Haha, good thing it didn't drop on the floor, otherwise there would be a pearl murder haha.

Enough babbling. The effect? I feel seriously blooming. There's glow in my face that I cannot imitate or do with my highlighters. It's ethereal..it's natural and I feel in love. It made my skin look perfect and I so DO NOT have perfect skin.

Ever since I spotted Guerlain Meteorites Pearl on Chang-Yi Airport 2 years ago made me want it. It looked pretty. And reading reviews and articles about it made me want it so bad. I've put it on a pedestal and I had so much high expectations about it that I was afraid that if I buy it, I would be disappointed because it did not perform well on my skin. But now I've been proven wrong! XD It just made my skin soooo perfect.

They retail PhP 2,999 at Rustan's but they're at 20% off until the end of the month. But, as good as it sounds, I'm going to pass the offer. I don't have the spare money to shell out almost 3,000. But I did made a deal with myself. If my skin clears up (I'm using BN Emu Oil with Tea Tree & Witch Hazel) I'll splurge on this item... But I'll definitely go back again to the Guerlain counter and have the SA apply Rose Teint to see what works better for me.

Post Holiday Lemmings

A belated happy holidays~ LOL...
I've been surfing and googling a lot of products I've been lemming to try. Most of them are Korean cosmetics and skincare. I got to hand it to them because they have the absolute EXTENSIVE range of skincare. Not just the basic cleanse-tone-moisturize. Most Korean skincare products like SkinFood has around 6 to 8 products per line that ranges to the cleanser, toner, mask sheets, emulsion, serum/essence , eye cream, cream (sometimes with 2 variants -- day and night) and then there's the sunblock, primer, bb cream and all those stuff. Whew, mouthful eh? o.o although I've never used such extensive products for my face. I'm still a cleanse-tone-moisturize girl + derma preparations haha. 
Anyway, back to the topic here are some products I've been lemming to splurge on coz...well it's the holidays :)

Lioele Blooming Pop Pinky Tint - eek! it looks so cute and I read that it's a possible dupe for Benefit's Posietint. I'm definitely preordering this from a multiply seller!
Other stuff that are on my want list:
~SkinFood White Grape Fresh Light Pact
~SkinFood Peach Sake Pore Serum
~SkinFood Rice Mask
~Missha M BB Boomer - I have a sample of this and it's absolutely ♥. It works great as a primer and for adding a boost of glow to my (dull) face
~Bare Naturals new 12pc professional brush set-  ooh! gorgeous really.
~Nyx Round LipStick in Orange Soda, Summer Love and Circe


and last but not the least...
Guerlain Meteorites Pearl >.< yeah I want this so bad! But it's just expensive! I've been really debating about this. This is not on my NEED list. But definitely no. 1 in my WANT list. Ever since I saw a picture of this in the in-house Singapore Airline shopping brochure I WANTED one. I would have bought then and there at the airplane but my aunt who was with me stopped me from buying such EXPENSIVE item. Oh sigh! Now, I WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANT one, but I'm thinking is it okay to splurge on a single item that costs almost P3000? Or just use that P3000 to buy other stuffS that are more useful to me? Quantity vs Quality I suppose >.<
