It’s already May! This is so insane. April was a busy month for me with university so I wasn’t able to upload daily like I used to but I really appreciate all of your understanding and support! =) I definitely needed as much luck as I could from you guys! It will be less intense now that mid semester exams are over and most of my assignments are finished so I’m extremely happy that I will be able to blog a lot more until finals roll around in June!

I was extremely excited to use this when I first purchased it but it got hidden underneath my other makeup and I completely forgot about it! I managed to find it again and I’m so happy I did because I have been using it so often. =) It’s a gorgeous shimmery golden brown and I like to use it everyday on its own because it’s quick and easy to apply. It also has great lasting power, although by the end of the day there is some slight creasing because of my oily eyelids. I have since replaced my Maybelline tattoo cream eyeshadow with this for a change and I’ve been loving it a lot! I don’t use the smudger side of the stick because I find it to be not forgiving at all and is extremely tough so I just use my fingers to blend around the edges.

If you saw my haul, you would’ve seen these lipsticks! Ever since I got them, I have been using them constantly. They are just all round amazing lipsticks from the packaging to the pigmentation and the range of colours available. Although they are definitely very expensive, they are a great investment if you’re looking to splurge on a high end lipstick!

I recently decided to lighten my brows again with bleach so that they would look less harsh but because it can sometimes look non-existent or yellow under certain lighting, I have been filling them in a lot more. I use the duo in the shade ‘Medium Brown’ and I like to use both shades on an angled brush to add both some colour and definition back into my brows. I first use the lighter shade to fill in any gaps and lightly define my entire brow first before I use the darker shade on the outer half. The end result is always very natural looking and lasts all day!

I have to be honest and say that I had been slacking off on doing weekly facial masks but after receiving April’s Mask Maven bag (Review), it reminded me to get back onto using them again! Sheet masks in general are amazing because they are so convenient to put on whenever you have spare time throughout the day and there are just so many to try out. My skin always looks more cleaner, brighter and feels more smooth after using sheet masks.
Let me know if you have tried any of these products before and if you’ve had a great experience with them or not! =) I hope you all have a great month! ♡
Thanks for sharing! Sheet masks are amazing, I have so many that I brought back from Hong Kong and I need to use them all haha. Also, thanks for sharing about the Anastasia brow powder, I always hear people boasting about it but I never got a chance to try it out…. I seriously need to fork over some money and just buy it already.
Have a great weekend Jen!! ❤
