have to admit, my likes are more on the bland side when it comes to makeup. eyeliner and neutral palette of eyeshadows are pretty much the two products that sums up my daily routine... well, my one and only routine. still trying to get the hang of the perfect balance. so the offer to an exclusive make up trail by the professional dior team didn't come at a better time. never does for me actually. the summer croisette 2012 collection was inspired by the gradient colors of the mediterranean sea and palettes of a sunset. the tones of pastels, turquoise, nudes, and golden-bronze are perfectly captured into the range of products. the make up artist insisted on a va-va-voom makeover and had me experiment with the aurora eyeshadow palette, nude tan sun glow powder, tan eye gloss and the brown panama ultra gloss. took a minute to get used to the ariel do. but it felt barely there and comfortable. not to mention fought the heat pretty damn well. kudos to denise and the dior team for the fun workshop and my own set of from collection!

fraud talk
( giorgio armani silk foundation , laura mercier mineral powder , clarins serum , estee lauder cooling eye illuminator , origins moisturizer )
following the interview feature we did with yestyle, the beautiful team at the office sent over this set of ultimate personalized favorites. was meaning to post about this much earlier on. so to reel in back a few months, we did a styling session and small talks with yesstyle mid december. met the founder of the site and learnt all about how the site became. truly inspiring. those who crave japanese, korean, taiwanese and etc beauty products and fashion look no further. it is the ulimate asian fanatic destination.
// giorgio armarni silk foundation is my only choice when the occasion calls. the coverage is maximum while retaining a super thin layer of coating, and the texture is just moist enough without feeling dragged (especially during the hot summer days). with that said, this is my third bottle already. // laura mercier’s loose mineral powder is that glow that everyone looks for. again, when the occasion calls, this is my thumbs up choice. // clarin’s lifting serum works like magic. removes the puffiness in a snap. planning to give the body lotion a go. // the estee lauder idealist cooling eye illuminator freshens tired eyes and works double as a light eye concealer. // lastly, my recent favourite, moisturizing mask from origins that I slap on to my face before visiting wonderland.

go for this
dion lee cue
the finding of this collaboration just totally knocked us off our chairs. those who know us will know we've been fans of upcoming designer dion lee ever since seeing his A-M-A-Z-I-N-G ss 2010 collection. we go to his site every now and then, which is always in "coming soon" mode and finally its a working site now!!! ( still under slow renovation though...) check it out here! back to the main subject... recently he has collaborated with australian fashion brand - cue, creating an amazing collection that delivers his style... at a more affordable price. we've been eyeing his stuff at net-a-porter for a while now but this just totally made my day. I would literally fly to Australia just for this. Here's some of our favourite picks ( which is like 80% of the collection because every piece is truly breath taking) for the rest of the looks visit the official website here! hurray dion lee for cue.
