Loreal Sale in Expo

it was an unplanned trip to the sale but since me n hubby were already der, i decided to pull hubby along to the sale after we had our fill of Texas Chicken.. Sadly,ytd was the last day of the sale n heris what we got..

Hubby Skincare..both were going at $10 each...Lately hubby is into anti aging...funny thing is he doesnt even bother in the past..he just use soap to wash his face..i guess he see's age is catching up on him nw..haha..anw..this is what he got:

-Loreal Men Expert Vita Lift Eye ($10)

-Loreal MEn Expert Vita Lift Re-Tightening Moisturizer ($10)

Being pregnant is not all rosy when stretch mark starts to appear so i had to get the Vichy cream..

-GARNIER Anti Wrinkle Firming Eye Cream ($8)

-VICHY COmplete Action Anti Stretch MArk Cream ($10)

-Loreal Revitalift Liquid Foundation SPF20/PA++ ($15)

(Liquid foundation with anti-ageing serum inside...im not reli into anti aging but i reli dun knw why i grabbed this..My main concern now is melamin n pigmentation increment due to pregnancy..also one of the reason i did not get any skincare from the sale coz im waiting for TBS Members sale to get their whitening range..)

-Loreal Texturising styling paste ( 2 for $10)

-Loreal Spray Creation (2 for $10)

Total Spent: $63

 

The reason i did not get much makeup at the sale is coz im waiting for Dior Cosmetic sale on the coming 24th which my sister invited me to coz she is a staff of Dior...So  im keeping my hands to myslf for now...

Smashbox Flawless kit review

A while ago i bought the smashbox flawless kit and i've gotta to say i got mixed feelings about this imo....

Primer

What it Does: Reduce the apperance of fine lines and pores. Wear alone or under foundation. Lightweight and oil free.

What i thought: After applying, it feels like those mattifying primer which i dun reli like coz it makes my skin dry but it does reduce the appearance of my pores..I would prefer those kind og moisturising makeup base/primer like Benefit 'that gal' brightening primer. So i would gv it 2/5.

 

Concealer

What It Does: Conceal imperfections and dark circles. Soft focus pearls deflect light to minimise the appearance of blemishes and fine lines. Provides buildable coverage.

What i thought: As u can see in the above pic, it does cover my imperfections(pigmentation on my cheeks) but not fully coz i just apply a lil bit..but u can build  it up..It does cover my undereyes quite well as well coz thats another concern of mine..also easy to blend..So i wld gv it a 3.5/5.

 

Foundation

What it does: oil free with buildable coverage. Packed with anti-aging, revitalising,and firming ingredients that will work over time. UVA/UVB SPF15.

WHat i thought: Blendable, medium to full coverage..Overall my skin does not look cakey or too much makeup...I wld gv it a 3.5/5

 

Halo to go hydrating powder

What it does: Minimise signs of agin.

What i thought: Colour doesnt match at all..it way much darker that the foundation colour..DOes not add more coevrage to set my foundation. A no for me..1/5

 

So overall...i would gv it a 2.5/5 coz i only like the concealer n foundation...would i buy it again? Mayb just the concealer and foundation..other that that..i would skip....

PS..this is not a paid review.. All are in my honest opinion.. U do not nid to agree on my review coz we all have different skin type and preference..

 

Thanks for reading...
