Pixi Multibalm Review, Swatches, Ingredients Analysis

Image
Pixi Beauty's Multibalms have been out for a couple of months now, and I've finally gotten around to reviewing them! The Multibalms are basically a stick of cream colour that dries down to a powder, and can be used both on lips and cheeks, for a " quick touch of colour to the face ". The Multibalms also claim to be "infused with aloe vera, shea butter, and rose hip oil" as an extra perk, too. Pixi Multibalm: A multi-tasking product for lips and cheeks As you know, Pixi has been known for some of their great beauty products for awhile now, and the brand has gained a reputation for its affordable, but still high quality, products. In particular the Pixi Glow Tonic has been extremely popular, growing from its cult beauty status to even receiving praise from mainstream beauty press. So, I was pretty excited about the Multibalms, hoping that they would also be just as worthy of praise. Pixi Multibalm: With 5 shades covering all the basic colour families Of course...

Biotherm Skin Best Wonder Mud Review and Ingredients Analysis

Image
Biotherm's Skin Best Wonder Mud is a mud mask, and was launched earlier this year. I've had this for awhile, and finally got around to reviewing it, after a few months! Well I guess better late than never right? (Ignore the crickets chirping, will you, LOL.) Anyway, Biotherm's Skin Best Wonder Mud claims to have the antioxidant Astaxanthin to combat dullness, as well as Ghassoul mineral clay to absorb oil and impurities . As the website eloquently puts it, " antioxidant superpower (Astaxannthin) has 100X more antioxidant than Vitamin E and Ghassoul clay are combined to form a mask that truly combats city toxins, grime and free radicals that attack our skin every day ". Sounds exciting, right? Biotherm Skin Best Wonder Mud: A clay mask with antioxidant benefits What's interesting about the Skin Best Wonder Mud is also its application method. Unlike traditional masks where you leave it on for anywhere from 15-30 minutes, the Wonder Mud mask is designed to be a q...

How to Convert PDF Files without a Desktop Software

In a world where technology reigns supreme, so many things in our lives are simplified by it, but there are some aspects that remain rather complicated. For those of us who deal with it on a daily basis, it�s necessary to have a deep understanding of these technological issues, in order to enhance our knowledge levels and overcome problems with ease, and of course, in as little time as possible. One of the tech things that often confuse people are PDF files, or more precisely how to edit PDFs. This format is renowned world-wide as a standard for sharing different business documents, because of their capability to be viewed on every operating system and device exactly as they were created, which is a unique value among file formats. For this reason many programs have an option to create a PDF from another file type, thus making it ideal for sending. But on the other hand, once the PDF is sent to another user, it becomes a read-only file, and the person who received it cannot make any ch...

Estee Lauder Pure Color Envy Hi-Lustre Light Sculpting Lipstick Swatches and First Impressions

Image
Estee Lauder's Pure Color Envy Hi-Lustre Light Sculpting Lipstick has launched in Singapore, and if you're a lipstick junkie, you're probably aware of this already. The lipsticks are supposed to offer " lustrous colour " with " brilliant shine " according to the Estee Lauder website, so finally we have a product that's bucking the matte lips trend that I've been seeing on Instagram. I can't say that I have strong feelings one way or the other, though - as far as lip products go, I'm happy with anything that doesn't have huge chunks of glitter! Estee Lauder Pure Color Envy Hi-Lustre Light Sculpting Lipstick: The newest lipstick range launched in September Estee Lauder's Pure Color Envy Hi-Lustre Lipsticks do have a pretty neat colour range, and in Singapore we'll be getting over 10 shades. I've swatched all 11 of them (yes I know that only 10 shades are lined up below, I found an extra shade to swatch after taking that phot...
