Models Prefer cosmetics haul


Hello beautiful people out there, recently I went to Priceline/ Australia to have a look around and I found this little makeup palette brand MODELSPREFER. If you have seen my blog, you may have remembered my previous blog about some other makeup from this brand. Anyways this little palette caught my attention well... I would say mainly because of the blush. It was AUD$10.99 but reduced to AUD$8.99. It contains 3 well pigmented shadows, a blush (with specks of glitters) and a full sized lipstick. The texture of the shadows and blush are not very smooth or finely milled but do have great pigmentation especially the shadows. As much as I was attracted to the blush, it wasn't as pigmented as shown in the pan but still' it's a pretty color and will look nice on top of a creme blush.

Without further ado, here are the swatches....





 Swatches are done on bare hand and as you can see,the pigmentation are good with just one swipe.










It's actually quite a nice lipstick color, sort of burgundy red.


I actually took some pics of the ingredients but somehow unable to download them so I will update the info soon. Till then' enjoy your evening!

Haute Luxxor Cosmetics

Hello everyone, it's been a VERY long time since I last blogged. Since I had the 3rd child, life has been even busier. Being Full time mum is certainly not an easy job! Require my constant attention n commitment 24 hours but by end of day, everything just worth it especially when I get to see them grow everyday!

Well, since I have little time thought I should just review some eye shadows which I have purchased from this company some time ago. www.hauteluxxor.com ( Price range from sample $1.25 to palette $13.50)

I got a stack pigments of 6 and a pressed quad eyeshadows  but because they were purchased awhile back, I don't remember the name of the stack pigments and I don't think it's available now. The quad palette which I had was called Coral Seas Palette ( consists of 4 shades: Paparazzi, Coral, Tropix and Aquamarine) The pressed pigmentation is just brilliant and gorgeous! The swatches done are without primer, just on bare hand.

Can you see how gorgeous the colors are? especially Paparazzi!

Now below are the pics of the stacked pigments... they were swatched with primer. ( in total there's 6 colors, unfortunately the packaging did not state the name of each shade) but you can see they are bright and colorful, like rainbow shades.









Please check them out if you are interested! They also have sample pigments and comes in a clam jar with generous amount. I bought a few of them but just hadn't load the pics yet. But they are certainly beautiful n Pigmented as well!
