Brow kits

Benefit
Brows-a-go-go

Recently i found myself shopping for eye brow kits and people kept telling me that Benefit's has the best brow kits ever, and is sort of known for it as well. This brow kit is really cute because it is complete with a mini tweezer, angled brush for the brow, a blending brush, an eye liner for a smoky eye (kinda random), 2 different shade of color for your brow, and a brow wax to finish up your look. Price point is USD$38 and can be found in Sephora, Ulta or you can buy in online here.
Benefit
Brow zings

This brow kit is smaller and comes in 3 different colors, light, medium and dark. It is also a cheaper alternative to the Brows-a-go-go from Benefit, only that it comes with a mirror, and does not have a gel wax for the finished brow. Price point is at $30, and you can get it in Sephora, Ulta or you can order it online here.

Urban Decay
Brow box

I recently bought this at Sephora, and was super excited to use it as an everyday routine. It comes in 4 different colors to choose from, Beige Betty (medium), Brown Sugar (dark), Gingersnap (auburn), and Honey Pot (blonde). It contains a mirror, mini tweezer, an angled brush, 2 shades for your brow and could be used as an eye shadow as well, and brow gel/wax for the finished look. Price point is at USD$29, and can be bought at Sephora or online here.

Too Faced
Brow Envy Kit

This high in demand brow kit comes in an uber cute packaging, and i find it is the most complete kit i have ever found in Sephora. It comes with a mirror, mini tweezer, angled brush, spooley, a brow pencil, conditioning wax, 2 shades for your brow, and 3 stencils to match your desired look. The shades are perfect for brunettes and blondes, and the kit itself are not easily found anymore. However you can order it online here at about USD$35.

January Favorites / Wish list

WISH
Lush soaps

I never realized how good these soaps were, until my room mate introduced them to me, and after doing a little more research, i got crazy and just want to get a hold of it as soon as possible! These soaps are not only sweet smelling, but also really unique and is used in its own special way. Unfortunately Lush is only available in US and the UK, but you can order it online right here. Price points are from USD$7 up to USD$20 depending on which type of soap you buy. Personally, its better to go to the shop and decide what you want to buy instead of ordering it online, because the range of scents are very wide and you might enjoy the experience as well. (PS most of these soaps go better when used in the tub)

LOVE
Coastal Scents 88 makeup palette

I had just received this in my mail yesterday and was amazed by its quality! Each color might be relatively small, but the pigmentation of each shadow is amazing, and when compared to MAC, they are almost the same of quality. Considering the price as well, this palette is perfect for those who are starting out with makeup, or maybe just wanting to get colors that you don't necessarily use on a daily basis, but find yourself searching for that one color at the drugstore. You can purchase it online here.

LOVE
Coastal Scents camo quad color corrector

Just got this one in my mail today and was blown away. Unlike normal concealers, this particular one has different colors to correct your uneven skin tone. The mint green shade is to cover reddish blemishes around the sides of your nose and cheeks, the yellow shade is to hide black/blue/purple imperfections, lavender shade is to even out skin tones for people with yellow or olive undertones, and the sky blue shade is to cover uneven tans. You can purchase it online here for only USD$8.
LOVE
Victoria's Secret lip gloss Beauty Rush

I started using Beauty Rush by Victoria's Secret a year ago as my friend got it for me as a gift, and i fell completely in love with it. It is perfect for a regular lipgloss, or to sass up a more dramatic look, or to mix and match with other lip glosses to give a nice and clean new shade to perfect your look. You can purchase it in Victoria's Secret boutiques for about USD$8 and SG$13. Colors I LOVE LOVE are: Piece of cake (slice of heaven), Cherry Baby, Sugar Rush and Cocoalicious.

LOVE
Boyfriend Blazer

This is more of a 2009-2010 favorite just because i find myself using it the most. This has even become part of my Blazer collection ever since spring-summer last year, and its still a part of my stapled ensemble on a daily basis. I cannot imagine myself without them! Brands I like are as follows: Zara, TopShop, Chanel.
