Work has been great, lotsa stuff to do everyday, and it doesn’t help after work I go clean my new room, unpack stuff, throwing out stuff (sobs! my beloved magazines!) and thinking on how to decorate my room and stashing all my makeup, skincare, fragrances etc.

And after a long day, covered myself in dust from top to toe, my face feel icky and yucky that I feel like scrubbing my face every single day.

BAD! You say.

I know, silly. I used something else, without needing me to scrub my face till it turns all red and yet left it clean and smooth.

Ah yes, the ever so lovely I Nuovi Splash Away Makeup Cleansing Oil.

This cleansing oil has been with me for ages! And I never find time to review it, and I always procrastinate. Oh dear, I hope Bob and Rina won’t be mad at me!

It’s texture is runny and liquid-y, not as thick as ZA’s Cleansing Oil, has a very light fragrance, which annoyed me at first, because it wasn’t floral nor fruity but just plain different from what I like, but after a couple of usage, I’m pretty immune to the smell.

Picture is a little off, but you get the idea what it’s all about.

I don’t use it with cotton pad, I just pour a generous amount onto my dry palms and massage them over my face.

2 or 3 minutes later, I clean my face off with water. No cloudiness (even if there is, it’s very minimal), waterproof mascara all removed (I used MJ/ Fasio/ Kiss Me mascaras which are quite well known to be a bitch when it comes to removal), face clean and smooth.

You know, even those horrible bumps which I tried scrubbing it off using my other cleansers/ scrub, but it just won’t come off, and with this, GONE!

GONE WITH THE OIL WIND!

I don’t know what those bumps are, but occasionally it appears. Weird. But at least I got myself a saviour!

This cleansing oil rinses off very easily, without any sticky residue or oily feeling. Just clean skin. Soft and smooth. I think the Geranium and Evening Primrose essential oil is working really well here!

And you need just a little to clean your whole face! A bottle can last you quite a while if you use it every other day

This is a perfect cleansing oil, which is perfect for cleansing, day or night. I would love to bring this for travel too! But… something held me back.

Which is this…

I am always afraid the cap might come off loose and everything in my bag get soaked in it’s oily-goodness.I wish it came with a screwable top or something that won’t be flimsy. But still I bring this along, wrapping securely with some plastic wrappers, so far nothing happen *touch wood*, but no one can guarantee me if it won’t next time!

Repurchasing? Hell yes!

Can’t upload my pictures. Can’t chat. Can’t check on my shipping status. Grrrr! Angry!

So what I can do is use my lunch hour and write my blog with whatever pictures and swatches I’ve placed into Photobucket before Internet went down at home. And pray that the line is smooth enough to do everything that I want to do. You know, sometimes the Internet in the office twice the suckiness than the one at home!

Enough of my babblings.

On to the review.

I have been using this every now and then and had done the swatches and everything and written down my thoughts about it in a notebook but I keep forgetting to post a proper review of this!

So am digging this out and giving it a proper introduction

Familiar?

Yeap! Inuovi Undercover Under-eye Dark Circle Concealer in 3Y.

It’s a light beige-y yellow with some slight peach undertone. Suits my undereyes rather well, especially after a wee bit of oxidization.

The coverage, I’d say medium and you can layer it on a little bit more if you like. However, it does tend to sink into a wee bit of my fine lines if I put it on a little too much. It does oxidize on me a little, which most of my foundation and concealer does (bad bad oily skin!), but it doesn’t look very bad on me even after oxidization. It looks even more natural after it! Some just turn ashy or greyish or just plain weird on me, but not for this!

Texture wise it is really lightweight and kinda runny than creamy. I like it very much because it is pretty easy to blend. I usually just put a little on the back on my hands, warm it up a little, and pat pat pat all over the eyes. Done! However, this concealer does crease on your eyelids if you have oily lids like mine. I have discolourations on my upper eyelids so I do use a bit of concealer on top.

It does last pretty okay, about 5 hours or so. I wore this from about 7.30am till 1pm, sitting in an air-conditioned office with minimal interaction with the hot and humid weather outside. After the 1 pm mark, it does fades quite a bit, maybe due to me rubbing my eyes (bad habit!) and held up till about 7 or 8 pm when I get back home and remove my makeup.

The only gripe I have with this is the dispensing of the product. Yeah it comes with a nozzle tip in a squeeze tube and it is hygienic and practical, but is that so? More often than not, I have to watch on how much pressure I apply to make sure I don’t squeeze out too much product because I only need very very little of it! >_< I don’t want to waste!

All in all, this is a decent concealer and I think this would suit those with drier skin than mine Retailing at approx RM60 in all Inuovi stores, try to grab it when you see it selling for 40% off! That’s how I got mine

Simply ditch any of your used lipstick or gloss of any make and be rewarded with a brand new I Nuovi Professional Lip product at less 50%!

Watch out for the eye products switch in June!

Are you girls going to change your lipsticks? Well, I am!

I have like 123456789123456789 and counting of blushes.

Okay. Not that many, but still, I can use each one of those blushers without the need to repeat them for at least 2 weeks I think!

Maybe… just maybe I show my little stash of blush collection sometime in the near future? Tee hee!

Today’s blush that I’ll be reviewing is I nuovi’s Cheek Blush in Dolly.

Yeap, the same colour that Connie has.

It isn’t as orange as the picture, but a bit towards peachy orange.  If it’s THAT orangey, I will definitely stay far far away from this colour as orange makes me look dirty and sallow! Yuck!

It goes on a very warm orange tone, with a slight peach-red colour in it. I was very hesitant to purchase this colour at first, since orange never work well with me and I look really bad with it, but upon application on the cheeks, it’s another story.

It goes on a pretty pink on me!

The texture of the blush is in cream-powder form. It’s not as creamy as my other cream blushes, in fact it’s a little hard, but not difficult to blend. And it does feel a little powdery. It’s staying power isn’t too shabby and lasted quite a long long while. And the blush is really pigmented so you need only a very small amount to work onto your cheeks!

They have another two more colours which I don’t remember the names, but I remember that they are pinks. One bright pink, and another rosey pink I think. I just hope that I nuovi comes out with more colours for this!

A little tip from Bob: When you apply your blush, don’t put it too low till it’s near your mouth when you smile. It ages you. No one wants to look old ya!

I posted this on Saturday night, and the post got deleted due to server malfunction. Am not too happy with it, judging that my blog was down a few times in just this one month alone.

Anyway, I was in Inuovi with a few other bloggers, Connie, Paris, Pretty, Emily and Bee. Paris had this arranged for all of us! Thanks darling!

I haven’t got much picture of the shop in Sunway Pyramid, but you can check the pictures that the girls took. I forgot my camera. =_= Imagine that.

All I have is just a few shots of myself and the falsies that I’m wearing

I was wearing Pro Lash 04 (gotta go home and check!) and I honestly love it! It’s simple, but yet had a really natural effect on my eyes! I love it to bits!

The falsies comes with a small tube of glue. And boy, the glue is kinda strong! I wore them from 2pm onwards and only removed them at 12am++ at night! No falling or anything!

A full face shot at approximately 6pm++ when I was at home.

Sorry bout the shine and grime aye?

Items used

Undercover concealer in 3Y
Pro Lash 04 (not sure!)
Inuovi pencil eyeliner in black
Inuovi blusher in Dolly (tube form)

Not too bad aye? The lasting power of the items are used are kinda good, at least it was still there when I remove them completely at 12am++

The eyelashes are sold at RM20, while the more dramatic ones are sold at RM30. Quite a good buy, judging that you can re-use the lashes for 3-4 times depending on how you take care of it

And with 40% discount, it’s so worth it!

Now I want to kill myself for not buying that darn 2 way cake! >_<

I just wish their 40% could come more often! I want those eyeshadows too!

Lovely items to be found in Inuovi! Go check them out kay!
