Review: Nars concealer

Nars concealer is my first concealer and i think i have my lifetime concealer already! hahaha

Crease-resistant, opaque coverage in a creamy yet lightweight texture. The long-wearing formula camouflages darkness under the eyes, redness and skin imperfections.
-Crease proof, lightweight and creamy texture
-Enriched with Vitamin E
-Can also be used as an eyeshadow base
-In a lipstick-like tube for easy application

I can’t describe better than what the site says! Oh and it also has 6 different shades. Its coverage is very buildable and does not make your skin looking dry! Ever since i bought this, i’ve been addicted to it! I’ve been putting it everyday i go out! cuz it simply makes my skin looks so much flawless than it already is. (did that sentence sound a bit arrogant? hmmm…lol)Plus, it contains Vitamin E! WHAT IS BETTER THAN THAT?! If you did not know yet, Vitamin E gives anti-aging effects! It helps the skin look younger, meaning less fine lines and wrinkles! (Side note, it’s always GOOD to buy lotion that has Vitamin E, said the doctor in Oprah show LOL whatever his name is haha). So, you can put this concealer as much as you want ;p

Here’s the concealer on my hand (the shade Custard):

When smudged…

The blemishes on my skin…

FOR ONCE, i wished i had more appearant redness spots to show how good the concealer is…

GONE! DISAPPEARED! VANISHED! or…camouflaged…haha

Since i’ve been watching loads of “Family Outing” (korean variety show, very funny), i got their disease of stupidity….

So joke of the day is…

Nars aqua gel hydrator review + update

I love this! It’s definitely very moisturizing! This thing hydrates way better than my daily cream…i mean it’s like 20x times more expensive too…lol.

My skin feels so much softer~ after a harsh winter in Canada, my skin can be sometimes damaged in some part. After this using this 2 times, the damaged parts are almost fully recovered. THAT QUICK! not exaggerating at all!

The MUA recommended this product as he is too very in love with it. And he said that to every customer he’d recommended, they all came back for MORE!

You only need a very tipsy bit of this gel! Do not rub it into your skin as it is very concentrated. Gently pat onto your face and let it set! That simple!

In canada, it’s really expensive…115$+ taxes. If i go check the NARS site, it’s 76 US$. Even if you convert it to CDN (1.2), it doesn’t add up to 115…WHY IS THERE SUCH A DIFFERENCE? maybe from the shipment to canada and such…and border taxes…urgh.

Is it worth it? To be honest, with a tight budget, no it is not. If you have stable job and living quite comfortably without any financial problems, yes it is!

You can live without this product. Simply use cream such as Aveeno, Olay, Jergens, Vaseline can be enough. They might not be as effective, but hey…at least it’s way more affordable and still moisturizes the skin!

Today at work, it was my supervisor’s birthday so we dined out! We tried out a new chinese restuarant. WHAT A GREAT DISAPPOINTMENT. THE FOOD WAS NOT CHINESE!! more like americanized version of chinese food.

urgh…i hate those…”general tao chicken” “sweet spare ribs”…it was just not good. way too sweet. To be honest, the rice was the only thing that was decent enough. All my co-workers lost their appetite. haha~ *little note, we’re all chinese too LOL*

UPDATE: Work-out and such…
Well i did exercise! And i’m just starting to show some results (cuz i can feel it lOL)…i have not updated my weight because…i’m just so ashamed…i want to lose weight but i gained weight instead.

My sis said cuz i gained muscles…But i don’t see any muscles..it was 114 right? well it jumped to 118, then to 116, now it’s like 115 i think? Hopefully…i can at least go back to 111, which is my original weight before my boyfriend came to visit and feed me with poutine. haha~

24 days left~
