Dior DiorSkin Forever Liquid Foundation

Dior DiorSkin Forever Liquid Foundation ($47)

I cannot believe I didn't try Dior's foundation before.  I wish I could have sooner.  I have to say this foundation is so luxurious.  It is expensive, but I think it will be worth to splurge on this foundation.  I have two other foundation samples from this brand that I haven't try yet, but I will do a blog post once I do try it.  I will do a comparison and see which one I like more.  I wear this foundation in the shade Linen 021.  For now, this foundation is awesome.  I love how smooth this foundation goes on, how natural it is on my face, and it doesn't cake.  When I wore this foundation, it is so light weighted and natural.  It gives me a beautiful coverage while it look like I have no foundation on.  I wore this foundation on a humid day and my makeup didn't smudge at all.  This foundation is just so amazing!  This foundation is definitely worth the $47.

Pros: Luxurious, smooth & velvety, easy to blend, last all day, it doesn't cake, moisturizing, silky, SPF 25, light-weighted, and it gives you a healthy natural look.

Cons: Expensive, but I think it is worth the splurge :)

Naked Foundation Review

UD Naked Foundation ($38)

I am in love with this foundation!  I got a sample in the shade 4.0 from Sephora and I definitely like how it look on my face.  It is definitely light-weighted and natural looking.  I have this foundation on all day and it didn't even cake at all.  To my surprise, the foundation last on until I washed it off.  Results may vary because everyone has different skin type.  I definitely recommend this foundation and will consider on buying the full size.  If you are not quite sure if you're gonna like it or not, go to Macy's or Sephora to get your sample now.

Pros: Light-weight, paraben free (this is a plus because it doesn't contain harsh chemicals), easy to blend, packaging is gorgeous, last all day, and doesn't cake.

Cons: I don't have any :)  

*Have you try this foundation?  What are your thoughts?

MAC Studio Sculpt Foundation

MAC Studio Sculpt Foundation

I have tried other MAC foundations, but I haven't try this one yet.  By the way MAC does have a reputation for full coverage foundations.  I dropped by MAC and got a sample of this foundation in the shade of NC25.  Here are my thoughts.

Pros: Easy to blend, matte finish, and long-wearing.

Cons: It emphasize my dry areas on my face.

This foundation is a little different from other MAC foundations that I've tried.  This foundation is gel-based and is suitable for those who have very dry skin (I have combo skin).  Around my nose area is normally drier than the rest of my face, but somehow this foundation didn't moisturize that area.  Instead it emphasize my dry areas around my nose which was not gorgeous at all.  Other than  this matter, this foundation is a matte finish which I like.  When I swatch this product at MAC it appears shiny, but it actually goes on matte after you blend it.  I wore this foundation all day and it didn't fade. This is a light to medium coverage and it is buildable for a full coverage.   

Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer

Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer

I read a lot of good reviews on this tinted moisturizer so I went to Sephora and got a sample in the shade Nude.  Here are my thoughts on this product.

Pros: light-weight, oil-free, doesn't cake, it is very moisturizing, it applies on smoothly, and it gives me a slight radiant glow.

Cons: very pricey.

Other than the price of this tinted moisturizer, I love this product overall.  This product goes on smooth and it is very sheer.  I wouldn't recommend this product to those who want full coverage because this is a tinted moisturizer.  I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a good tinted moisturizer that would give you a natural finish without looking like you have a lot of makeup on.  I like this product, but I wouldn't buy this product because I don't want to splurge on a high end product that would just sit around in my makeup drawer.

Summer Beauty Vox Box

Summer Beauty Vox Box

Items included: 

1. Quaker Banana Nut Bread- This soft baked nut bread was delicious!  I would recommend this to anyone!

2. Sally Hansen Nails & Cuticles Hand Creme- This hand creme was totally awesome!  I have been using this hand creme for 3 days and my hand and cuticles are already softer.  I am glad that I got this mail to me to test and review because I love this product!

3. Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Lotion Sunscreen SPF 30 (haven't test this product yet)

4. Clear Scalp & Hair Therapy Total Care Shampoo & Conditioner- OMG, this is another product to love.  I saw this new hair care line at Wal Mart and have been dying to try it, but I didn't buy it because it was over my budget.  Somehow for this summer voxbox, it was included and I was super thrilled about it.  I love the smell of this shampoo & conditioner.  It has a nice rosy, fresh fragrant.  I have been using these products for 5 days and I realized that my hair was not as oily compared to using the Suave brand.  My hair does not break as much.  This product is wonderful.  I am considering buying the full bottle even though it does not come in a big size.  I think it is worth the money now. 

5. Always Tampax Radiant Collection- 1 purse pouch, 1 pad, 3 liners, and 2 tampons- I have only test the pad so far.  I have always been a big fan of the Always brand.  I love the comfort of their foam pad.  It is super comfortable and it is lightly scented to kill odor.  Love, love the new Radiant pad.  I will definitely be looking forward to this new pad.

6. Sally Hansen Magnetic Nail Color- at first I thought this nail polish is definitely cool, but it didn't go on as smooth as I wanted it to.  You have to do two layers and it is definitely thick.  It said to place your nail under the magnetic for 10 seconds, but when I did it, it didn't turn out as good.  I won't be purchasing these nail polish.

*This month box was one of the best box that I've got so far.  Most of the items for this months were good.  I am one happy gal :)

June Glam Bag

"Out All Night" Glam Bag

Items included:

1. NYX Round Lipstick (in shade Saturn)

2. Living Proof Nourishing Styling Cream

3.  Philosophy Take a Deep Breath Gel Moisturizer

4.  Marbella Permanent Eyeliner Pen

For this month bag, the items came in a beautiful sparkling gold clutch.  First of all, I was super amaze about the Living Proof styling cream this month because their hair products work ahh-mazing!  It does so much for my hair as I apply it on.  My hair was instantly softer and it smells wonderful too.  I love hair products that smells good.  Philosophy's Take a Deep Breath moisturizer reminds me of Lancome's Aqua Bienfait gel moisturizer.  It is a gel texture that goes on lightly onto my face without that heavy sticky feeling.  This moisturizer has no fragrance and it is oil-free.  The NYX lipstick I received is in shade Saturn and it is a medium reddish color with a hint of pink in it.  It is very pigmented and smooth.  Marbella eyeliner is a plus for summer.  It is a long wear liquid eyeliner which is perfect for the summer for a no touch up makeup.
