Weekly Photo Challege - Summer Must-Haves
Yumeko has posted another series of her Weekly Photo Challenge. This week's theme is the Summer Must-Haves.
Well, since it is summer all year long in Singapore, but I have to admit that the June to September period is pretty much warmer than other months.
Some of the items mentioned below (eg. sunblocks) is pretty much what I use 365 days a year.
Let's get started!
1. Base Makeup – [sunscreen,powder,foundation, bb cream, whatever I use in the heat/humidity of summer]
From left:
- Sofina Beaute Day Protector SPF 50 PA+++ (Fresh)
I bought this when I was in Hong Kong last year. The product is lightweight and spreads easily on the skin. It is not my favourite (my favourite is still the IPSA Super Sun Block SPF 50 PA+++), but it is not the worst either.
- Clarins Wrinkle Control Eye Suncreen
I use a different sunblock on the contour of my eyes, as I find that the normal face sunblock tends to dry out my eye area.
- Garnier Instant Fairness BB Eye Roll-On
My dark eye circles are not that serious these days, so I skipped my usual cream concealers over for this BB roll-on instead. It provides a light coverage and also serves as a brightener.
- Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20 Oil Free and Foundation Primer Oil Free
I have switched to using these two Laura Mercier base makeup instead of my usual liquid/mousse foundations since the beginning of April 2012. The products feel light on the skin and it also last the whole day on my combination skin.
2. Point Makeup [blush,eyeshadow,whatever I use in the heat/humidity of summer]
From top:
- NYX Cream Rouge, Nars The Multiple and Canmake Cream Cheeks
Love, love, love my cream blushers! I don't think I can ever live without them.
- Diaso Eye Brow Coat
With just a light coat, it helps my eyebrows to last the entire day.
- Diorshow Iconic Extreme and KATE Volume Mascara
Fantastic waterproof mascaras.
- Diaso Eyeliner Coat
One of my HG makeup item! I apply it on both upper and lower eyeliner to set the pencil/gel eyeliner. It is the best and not to mention cheap! I have been rationing my usage of this item since I can't find it at any of the Diaso I have been too! >_<
3. Sunglasses/Hat/Anything I am wearing to block out the sun’s harmful rays
From left:
- Biore UV Aqua Rich SPF 30 PA+++ and Allie SPF 26 PA+
I am currently rotating between these 2 sunblocks for body. I have previously done a
review on the Biore sunblock.
- Pure UV-Cut Hyaluronic Acid SPF 15
I can't remember how long I have used this lip balm already. My lips feel nice and moist after application.
4. Deodorant/Body Spray/Perfume [whatever I am using to make yourself smell good]
From top:
- DKNY Be Declious Parfum
I took of the cap for the photo as my reflection was on the cap. This is a birthday gift from my girl pal and she really chose well. Just wonder how she knows that I like this scent too. :D
- Kenzoki Shh De Lotus Relaxant
This is another of my favourite scent from Kenzo (the other being FlowerbyKenzo ♥). I only use this when before going to sleep, I think it really helps in relaxing my mind and let me have a good night rest.
5. Other must-haves for Summer
From right:
- Little Twin Star x Sophie Monk Body Lotion 氣潤滑身體乳 (Aroma Silky Body Lotion)
A light body lotion is a must! Currently I am using this. This body lotion is very watery so it absorbs really quickly and does not leave a sticky feeling. But I do find the scent too strong and cloying.
- Soap &Glory Sit Tight
By right, this shouldn't be here, since I have only just started using it recently.
