$1 = RM5 Cosmetic and Craft Glitter ???

Hi everyone ! So, Eid is coming up and I know all the girls are super excited to flaunt their new traditional wear and slay their highlight right ? But is that really enough ?? What if I told you I can up your makeup game while keeping it budget friendly !

So I love love love glitter eye looks but I never knew where to get them, so I googled "cosmetic glitter" and the ones that came out was "OCC cosmetics","Violet Voss" and a couple of other US based cosmetics companies that were around $16 a pop ! Omaigad ples mai monies...

Determined like the crazy makeup hoe that I am I went through over 20 websites (local and international) before I stumbled on www.bulkglitters.com and they sell the NICEST glitter for only $1 !!!

The glitters come in 2 sizes, the bitty jar (1 teaspoon of glitter) and the mini jar (2 teaspoons of glitter) the mini jar is $1.25 but the bitty jars are more than enough if u want to use it on makeup looks alone, if you are interested in the craft glitter they come in bigger jars for a slightly more expensive price.

BUT bulkglitters.com has a minimum order of 3 jars per colour, so I headed on to their sister website www.superglitters.com, over here there are no minimum orders BUT they only take about 300 orders a DAY so if you want to get through to the website better set that alarm early (I bought mine at around 9.30am  so I guess an hour before/after is still ok) For those living in the US they have a flat rate shipping of $6.50 but for those living outside of the US the shipping rate will vary depending on your area, mine was about $8 maybe $10 ? And I live in Malaysia so thats actually not bad.

The glitters have many different types of finishes such as, metallic,holographic,iridescent etc so you can choose depending on the look you want to go for, on my first order I got 15 shades and the shipping took about 2 weeks to arrive, here are the shades;



** the smaller jars are from carousel the bigger ones are from www.superglitters.com

Here are the name of the shades





Now since they ARE loose glitters you have to use some form of glitter glue with it, I use TooFaced's Glitter Glue (RM95 at Sephora) but the Nyx Glitter primer (RM35) is quite good too, this is what that looks like


The only problem with this is that it usually sells out pretty quickly, at least in the Sephoras in Selangor. So the way to use it is to dab some glitter glue on your lids with a flat shader brush and then dip your brush into the glitter pot (I usually just use whatever is in the lid cause thats more than enough product) and then go to town on your eyelids and it will look something like this 


Over here I used the Naked 3 Palette by Urban Decay and the "Blushes Pink" glitter to create this rose gold glitter cut crease hehe. Hope that helps, thanks for reading and Eid Mubarak or Selamat Hari Raya everyone ! Till next time :) RQ xo

Huda Beauty TexturedShadows Palette Rose Gold Edition REVIEW

Image
Hi everyone, I'm just gonna get to it. The Huda Beauty eyeshadow palette is simply stunning. Mine was actually a birthday present from my cousin who bought it at Harrods in London. I have been lusting over this palette ever since it went viral, before I got my hands on it though I read + saw reviews on how the glitter shadows in the palette are actually pressed glitter and for some reason just repels a brush even when you use fix plus. So naturally I went to Huda Kattan's Youtube page to see how she uses it and there she explains that since those are PRESSED GLITTERS the way to use it is with your finger, to me personally it doesn't bother me but if you're a germaphobe or have synthetic nails then maybe working around that would be a bit tedious. The price of this palette is $65 USD, $95 AUD, $56 GBP (sorry I couldn't find the pound symbol) and roughly RM310. Quite a pretty penny but personally I think it's worth it, lets see why; This is the palette from th...

BEST ALL NATURAL SPOT TREATMENT EVER

Image
Raise your hands if your skin is pretty much non problematic but every couple of months get a huge ass pimple the size of Texas 🙋🏻   We on the same boat girl, so I've tried a couple of spot treatments before that were pretty good i.e. Mario Badescu's drying lotion RM 97 from Sephora ;  This really helped dry out my pimple overnight and get it gone by say, in 3 days max. BUT I have 3 problems with this, 1) is freaking expensive ya gurl can't throw 100 bucks every 4-5 weeks hokay 2) Because it is so powerful it quickly dried my skin when then triggered my sensitive skin and lastly 3) this SMELLS LIKE A MAFARKING HOSPITAL and the smells lingers ! Like a good 10-15 mins after that ... ples I also tried the Keihl's Blue Herbal spot treatment and the Himalaya spot treatment but that didn't really work for me. So after that a friend of mine told me about Tea Tree Oil and at the time I was obsessed with Lush's Tea Tree Water Toner so I bought mine at The ...

I know I know what you're thinking, ANOTHER beauty blogger ? Look at it this way, the more people writing,scouring for cheaper alternatives,get skin allergies due to trying new skincare the more you don't have to ! Yeah that wasn't convincing. Anyways, short description about this blog and myself, Im a 21 year old young adult living life in the crippling economic state of Malaysia who is completely obsessed with makeup,writing,skincare,cooking, and pretty much anything shiny. Plus I like doing reviews since I'm a compulsive buyer but again, that's for you my dear readers (if anyone asks) A little of what I do in my procrastinated time So right off the bat you can tell what I'm interested in (btw that's my cat Kimchi, he's my good luck charm so I thought it'd be a good idea to sneak him in somewhere)   So friends, await my upcoming posts on reviews,recipes and possibly step by step photo tutorials on makeup looks. Till next...
