Sawasdee ka~
Are you sick of my lipstick post yet? Hope not because I still enjoy reviewing and swatching it ^___^. It's time for some nude lipsticks review and swatches. Nudey shades are perfect to wear just about anytime of the year no matter how cold or how hot.

L'oreal has launched this Privee collection some time last winter. I remember getting them around the beginning of the year (with 3 for 2 deal in Boots of course). This collection is a limited edition, I'm not sure how long will they be on shelf until so if you are kind of lipstick nudey person don't forget to check them out.

L'oreal collaborate this collection with their 6 iconic L'Oréal Paris spokespersons; Cheryl Cole, Doutzen Kroes, Freida Pinto, Julianne Moore, Eva Longoria and Liya Kebede. I bought myself 4 out of 6 shades Doutzen's nude light baby pink nude which is the lightest shade in the collection. It's obviously too light for me but would look great on paler skin tone, Julianne's nude  a peachy pink tone, Eva's nude light warm caramel nude with a hint of gold, Freida's nude light brown nude with a hint of violet. This is a cool toned nude that would looks amazing on darker skin tone. And my favourite one would be Julianne and Eva :). he special things about them is that all nude shades are based on the celebrity skin tones so there must have shades in the collection that are suited for your skin. The spokemodels chose there own ideal hues with the help of colour designer, Orrea Light, to develop the lipstick shade that is complemented their own skin tones.

Let's start with packaging idea, it looks really luxury for a drugstore brand. These special edition lipsticks are encased in rubberused matte tube which reminds me of Nars engraved in the gold detailing alongside celebrity's signature. In term of quality and texture, it's very smooth, creamy, moisturised and quite sheer. In my opinion the texture is similar to glaze formulation from MAC. It also has a slightly odd lipsticky scent and flavor which I don't really mind as long as it looks beautiful on my lips, but generally the scent fades within the first 20 minutes. As it's nude shade and pretty sheer I don't really expect it to last long. It will stay on your lips in about good few hours. Also, if there are any dry patches to your lips, it will cling onto it.  So make sure you  prep your lips properly.

rrp: £8.19 (boots) or £8.16 (feelunique)

Which colour do you like?

OOTD : Kiss Kiss Kiss @ Leeds Riverside

Sawasdee ka~
I mention before in my very first post that I'm pretty obsessed with lipstick and anything that come in lips shape. So here come the idea for this outfit.

About 2 week ago, my boyfriend and I went for a walk around riverside area in Leeds. It was a lovely Sunday. I decided to go for a casual and simple look. The outfit is actually a plain mix&match with tank top and shorts but I always like to create a gimmick to my outfit. It's time to show off my new top that I just ordered from Ebay and combined it with the black sport bra and shorts. To make the look complete the flower headband and lips clutch/bag are the stars. Pink tone from my sunglasses, lipstick colour, headband and sandals can actually soften the whole black and white thingy and make the look sweeter.

Oh and one more things I want to talk about is my new Primark Sandals that cost only £10 but it's surprisingly comfy and easy to walk with I even manage to buy 2 of the same style but in different colour (shhhhhh don't tell my boyfriend he said if I buy new shoes he going to bin my other old pairs). There is nothing better than having a good comfy shoes, right?

Tank top : Ebay

Shorts : Zara

Flower headband : Primark

Lips clutch/bag : Aldo

Sandals : Primark

Sunglasses : Topshop

Lipstick : MAC Snob

Cupcake: Johnnie Cupcake

I end this post with my greedy funny face when I see all the yummy cupcakes

What do you think about my outfit, yayy or nayy?

REVIEW : Love of Dots

Sawasdee ka lovelies~

Today I come with part of my lovely perfume collections "Marc Jacobs Dot". I adore Marc Jacob perfume line, not just only the scents that I love but also a bottle design. The design is actually what I get attracted to before I even tried the perfume on! I'm sure most of you have heard about it before. First Dot was released in 2012 then Honey in 2013 and this year Limited edition Pink Honey which will be available for the 2014 summer season. Well before I tell you my thought about them I want to say that everyone have different preference so not everyone will love them like I do.

Marc Jacobs Dot (Eau de Parfum)
I think I don't have to tell you how much I love this perfume if I tell you this is my 2nd bottle! When I first knew about the release I was sooo excited with the packaging and I doubled the point when I tried it on. Although many people might say there is nothing special about this perfume but for me I think Marc Jacobs try to make it cheerful and easy to wear. And it smells great on me! It is marked as a fruity with a hint of warmth. I was very much in love with it, which was why I was delighted when my boyfriend gave it to me 2 years ago. A little bit down points are the petal lid that takes too much space on my perfume shelf and the scent that seems to disappear after few hours.

Top Notes: Honeysuckle, Red Berries, Pitahaya (dragon fruit)
Mid Notes: Jasmine, Orange Blossom, Coconut
Base Notes: Driftwood, Vanilla, Musk

Marc Jacobs Honey (Eau de Parfum)
So in 2013 Marc Jacobs released a better version of Dot. Better in both packaging design (the lid is smaller yet still cute!) and the longer lasting scent. Honey is actually my current favourite perfume. First reason is because this perfume scent is perfect for summer that coming up and another reason is the scent. The scent is still in sweet florally theme (I think it's sweeter than Dot) with a hint of brightness, freshness and warmth. Once my best friend even asked me which perfume did I use, she said it smells amazing. One thing to mention, the scent is sweet like honey but I can't really smell honey in it (Am I confuse everyone here?!). I kinda smell peach more than any other notes

Top Notes: Pear, Fruity punch and Juicy mandarin.
Mid notes: Orange blossom, Peach and Honeysuckle.
Base notes: Honey, Golden vanilla and Smooth woods. 

Marc Jacobs Pink Honey (Eau de Parfum)
Pink honey is the newest release from Marc Jacobs. It's a shame that both of the bottle design and scent are exactly the same as Honey. Instead of yellow, the bottle is splashed in sweetest pink shade. I'm actually not quite understand why Marc Jacobs decide to do a limited edition of Pink honey when there is nothing different from Honey (apart from bottle colour). At first when I know that it's a limited edition I hope to see something more special. Need to say I'm a little bit disappointed but oh well at least the pink bottle is not that bad. If you like pink more than yellow bottle, Pink honey will be release on 26th this month in 50ml Eau de Parfum formulation only.

rrp (50ml) : £49.50

Overall, if you like girly, happy, playful & young perfume you should definitely try these out
