FOTD with Meow Cosmetics & Hauls

Align Center
Hey lovelies, how you all doing?
Done with Christmas shopping yet? =D

Here are my last 2 FOTDs when I used my new Meow foundation.

First one I'm pairing the foundation with Lush Blush in Crush. The foundation coverage is good, not too much as I would imagine, but the Lush Blush is gorgeous! Crush i's a pretty cool berry tone with dewy finish. I really like this line.

  • Camellia Rose V2.0 Primer
  • EDM Intensive Tan Concealer
  • Meow Fierce Manx PP Foundation
  • Meow Crush Lush Blush
  • NYX Apricot Round Lip Gloss

My bf said I looked "flushed" but in a good way lol

I decided to go natural (or ... minimalist? lol) since I'm lazy hehe and speaking of natural, I placed an order from AVON a while back.

I wanted to try their Naturals line (just the name, not really 'natural') because the Vanilla scents is supposed to kick ass.


Managed to snatch a free shipping code, I made an order for their sale item at that time, which was the Hand Cream. When it arrived, unfortunately the cream went plasticky on me. Good thing it's only 69 cents so I wasn't too pissed off. I kept trying and it's actually not too bad when it dries down.

I asked around the MUA board and turned out people had the same experience with the hand cream, and one nice lady mailed me to tell that the lotions is the one that smell the best out of all the line.

So being a curious kid that I am, I placed another order for the mini lotion, this time it was around 99 cent, so came out to about 1 bucks with tax.

Today they came in and THANK GOD she was right, the body lotion smells so much better, it's a nice soft Vanilla that you can layer with simply ANY scent. It's creamy but not heady or overly sweet, just a perfect Vanilla, if that makes any sense.

Oh and I am starting to use the color contacts my mom sent me, from Acuvue, the one in Hazel. I like the color, but my BF likes my dark eyes better, he said.

I think he's just jealous coz I copied his eye colors mwahahahaah just kidding..

Second FOTD, I also used the same foundation, only with other blushes.

Avon & L'oreal HiP Lippies Swatch

I am adding some lip swatches for the previous lippies loot, so you guys can see the real colors showed on lips.

I have to say Avon Glazewear show up sheerer than regular lipstick, it gives just the right amount of color and it is very moisturizing. I personally think I wouldn't need lipgloss over it because of the shine the glazewear already gives.




(Beach Plum is a bit frostier than Royal Fuchsia)

L'oreal HiP Shine Struch Liquid Lip Color has a thinner consistency than other lipglosses I've tried so far, even from the regular L'oreal lines. Thinner consistency doesn't mean less vibrancy, as you guys can see

it is really concentrated in color, and it feels so light and NOT STICKY at all. I adore the color too ^_^

Avon & Ebay Mini Haul

So on my old post when I said I have too much lippies and not gonna buy it anytime soon....

I was obviously stoned & unconscious LMAO j/k. So I bought couple of lipsticks and lipgloss from Avon and Ebay and found myself a pretty awesome deal.

From one of the Avon representatives I found online, I was hooked with a 20% discount PLUS free shipping, and who can resist that? *not me, I know* so I was making lists of a few stuffs I would like to get from them. But along the line I just decided to get 2 lipsticks and 2 lip glosses. Sadly my representatives told me the lip glosses were discontinued and she was already outta stock, so I was only left with 2 lipsticks. I've never tried Glazewear lipstick before but have heard so much good stuffs so I decided to give it a try, it costs me $3.89 each (before 20% off) ^_^

Now from Ebay I was able to find a cheaper L'oreal HIP Color Truth Cream Eyeliner and Shine Struck Liquid Lip Color, I know the retail price for the eyeliner is around $13 and Lip glosses around $14.

I got both of them for $11 including shipping. HA !

I chose the Black 905 eyeliner since I already got the Eggplant and I like how it looks like, and for the lip gloss I picked Reserved, a muted pink that gorgeously shows up as MLBB lip gloss on me (if that makes sense hehehe)

The Major Damage


Avon Glazewear Lipstick:




I love love LOVE these slimshine-looking moisturizing lipstick, the colors look intense on the tube but when applied, it goes a little bit sheerer and gives you just the perfect hint of color. I plan to get more hehehe

Arghhhh I love packages.
