Buttery soft and so easy to use!

I love this fine tip brow pen - it goes on buttery soft, without clumping up or crumbling from its softness so it holds the line. Good control, natural colour, no tugging, and just great. However, I've generally got really oily skin and lids - I'm just so well moisturised! that this little guy which I use to draw my brow shape does not hold up by noon time. But that's only expected so I carry a brow pencil with me and just touch up midday. This would be a total keeper if it was a long stay one for combi-oily skin!

Smooth, soft, fab!

These brushes are very soft and make all my eyeshadows from Suqqu to Lancome to Tarte (not as finely milled) glide on easily, smoothly, no creasing. Except, there is one brush no.18 that isn't as soft as the rest. It's a little crunchy and I can hear the bristles when they move across my lid. Strange, as the other brushes, esp my favs no. 16 and 17, aren't like that at all! Nonethless, great brush set. I don't reach for any other eye brush now.

How am I loving this more than my Chanel and Addiction by Ayako lippies?!

I love this little unassuming guy. I've never been good with any matte lipstick - it'd be too dry or it'd have fantastic pigmentation but would be too loud for the workplace. First world problems! Anyway this was new and I was curious - I could not have been more surprised how this lip pencil not only feels barely-there comfortable on the lips, it doesn't bleed, it doesn't seep into lip lines. In fact, it makes lips look so much smoother in texture and neater too since it works as both a lip liner and a lipstick (and yea you can use it on the cheeks too!) The colour payoff is ridiculously good while looking very natural and sophisticated as well. I do love my Chanel rouge for medium colour, MAC lippies for strong colour, and for sheer moisturising colours - Addiction by Ayako lippies. And seriously, this matte lip pencil is a bit of a blend of all the good things I like in the Chanel, MAC and Addiction - what can I say, a serious love of mine now!
