Current Beauty Favourites and Other Things
I haven’t done a current favourites post in for ever but I thought I would do one now just to update you with what I’m currently loving, not only beauty products but other things as well. First of, I took my blog photos a few days ago using my brother’s camera and I used the 50mm lens (which mine broke) and since it’s a Nikon and I’m only familiar with Canon cameras, I didn’t know how to properly set the ISO and aperture value. I tried playing around with the settings but the photos came out a tad bit blurry on the outer half of the photos so I apologise for that.
Enchanteur Paris Adore perfume
This perfume was one of the staples in my collection about 2 years ago which I went through two bottles of it in just mere few months because it is one of the most delicious smelling perfumes ever. I wore this to class everyday when my male classmate asked me am I wearing a Victoria’s Secret perfume ’cause I smelled like I’m wearing one from the brand. Little did he know that it’s a 28 ringgit perfume from Tesco and I love it so much. Since it’s very inexpensive, I won’t feel as bad if I sprayed myself 10 times with this everyday.
MAC Matte lipstick in Yash and NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Stockholm
I’ve been enjoying layering 2 lipsticks as I can create as many lip shades as I can with what I have. Right now, I’m loving MAC Yash (peach nude) and NYX Stockholm on top and those two together create the nicest nude shade ever. I mentioned in the past that these two lipsticks are my “lip colour but better” and layering them both is definitely my go-to everyday lip colour.
Glitter’s Foundation
I have been wearing this foundation religiously every day for class since I got it on 17 February. I did not use my Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum Foundation or my Laneige BB Cushion because I’m obsessed with this particular foundation. The shade matches my skin colour, you can build it up until high coverage, moreover you don’t need to set it with powder and my blusher and highlighter go on beautifully on top of this foundation. And the best thing is? It’s super super super affordable!
Innisfree No-Sebum Mineral Powder
This was my backup that I bought months ago in my Hermo haul and I’ve just come around to using it again a few weeks ago and I love how it looks on my skin. I know that I’m using a foundation that doesn’t need me to set it with powder but like I said a few weeks ago I had some time to spare to do my makeup before class so I put this on my under eye concealer (which I don’t do every day) and just basically set my whole face with it and I loved it. I’ll continue using this around my T-zone as those are the area that I get most shine from.
TheBalm Mary-Lou Manizer
This highlighter was featured in my previous favourites post that I did last year but I can’t help it from featuring it again because I’m really enjoying this highlighter so much I feel like bathing with Mary-Lou in liquid form. I really recommend this highlighter if you have fair to medium skin tone and to be honest I don’t find any reason to buy more highlighter when this one works so well for me.
MANGO White Pants
I wear these pants 3 days out of 4 days of class in a week and I absolutely love this to death! I pair these with my Skechers sport shoes and they go well together because these pants hit just above my ankle and they’re both so comfortable. I got these pants a couple of years ago which I only got around to wearing it frequently for the past couple of weeks. Love it!
Beauty and The Beast movie
Last Sunday, I had the privilege of watching Beauty and The Beast with my family. I heard mixed reviews about this movie whereas some who have watched it didn’t like it but I don’t care because I love it so so much! Dan Stevens (the beast) was actually in a tv show called Downton Abbey that I still haven’t finished watching which I might continue after this because he’s so hot. The first 5 minutes of the movie got me in tears because it’s just lovely and I wanna live in their setting because I love castles and princes and princesses and can I be Belle?

Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (1999 -)
Oh my god. Where have I been all this time? I know they have the normal Law & Order and this one, Special Victims Unit which is basically about solving sexual crime cases including rape, pedophilia, and whatnot. If you’re into crimes like I am, I really recommend this show and the best thing is you can binge watch on it day and night because they’re on season 18 now. I’m finishing the first season in less than 36 hours and that tells a lot about how much I love this show. However, I do have to mention that this isn’t suitable for young teens, though.
