[Love Yourself] Bobbi Brown Sparkle Eye Workshop

Last week, I signed up for Bobbi Brown's Sparkle Eye Workshop organised at Tangs, VivoCity. I wanted to attend the workshop basically to understand the range of products from Bobbi Brown. So, I went for this workshop with a registration fee of S$80, redeemable for products. There were two options to choose from- Korean Eye Makeup and Fresh Eye Makeup. I opted for the Fresh Eye Look as I felt that it would be more suitable considering my eyes and age and it was seconded by the Makeup Artist there.
So, after registration, I was introduced to my Trainer Make Up Artist Ariel, who I must say was quite good with her work.
Then, we started with the workshop- started with cleansing and this is how my bare eyes look-


After cleansing, I was asked to apply the Bobbi Brown Extra Eye Repair Cream to moisturize the skin near eyes.
The dark circles were covered with Colour Corrector in Medium to Dark BISQUE and Bobbi Brown Concealer in Natural was used to even out the skin tone. Then we applied, Bobbi Brown Long Wear Cream Shadow Stick in Vanilla to the eye lids covering the area within the eye socket, followed by Sparkle Eye Shadow Ballet '3'. The crease was done with Cocoa Eyeshadow from the Rich Chocolate Eye Pallette. For shadow liner, we used Eye Shadow in Rich Chocolate followed by Long Wear Eye Liner in Black Ink to intensify the colour and the whole look was finished with Intensifying Long Wear Mascara in Black.

The Final look achieved was-


I like the look- not too heavy and great for everyday wear.
All the products used were


1. Rich Chocolate Eye Palette
2. Sparkle Eye Shadow Ballet '3'
3. Concealer- Natural
4. Colour Corrector- Medium to Dark BISQUE
5. Long Wear Gel Eyeliner Black Ink
6. Long Wear Cream Shadow Stick- Vanilla
7. Intensifying Long Wear Mascara- Black

When it came to buying products, I really wanted to buy the colour corrector but realized after a while that since it is cream based and I sweat, so it was getting into the fine lines near my eyes and creating white lines, so after this flash, I had to leave it and instead I went for the Cream Shadow Stick in Vanilla, which acts as a Primer as well. I also picked up an Eyeshadow in Black Chocolate (2G) to use as eye shadow and eye liner.


Also, did I mention that I received a door gift as well... A Bobbi Brown EXTRA Eye Repair Cream, 2.5ml and Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base, 7ml.
All in all It was a great experience and let me introduce the trainer Make-up Artist- Ms. Ariel


Out of all the products, I feel the Cream Eye shadow Stick and eye shadows are quite good. You may like to try the concealers and colour corrector which are available in a tone matching your skin, if you don't have very oily or sweat prone skin!

Do leave a comment and let us know of any Bobbi Brown product that you have tried...

Till then keep reading and discovering!

bellabox- Beauty in a Box

Hey Mammas,
Hope you had a wonderful weekend!
Let me tell you what I found last week, although many of you in Singapore and Australia may be aware of it but  for me it was something new and exciting. It is concept of sampling beauty products by receiving them every month at your door step packed in cute little box with a different theme every month. There are a few of these boxes moving around in Singapore, but let me tell you about bellabox (will talk about others later)!
bellabox comes up with 5 luxury,cult and new products in make up, skin care and everything to do with looking and feeling beautiful. These products are handpicked for you only if you complete your beauty profile at the time of sign up. The subscription is fairly priced at S$19.95/month with 19 reward points or at S$219.45 for 12 months, with 219 reward points and one month free. Reward points can be used to make purchase at bellabox shop and every 100 points is equivalent to S$10. Sounds interesting isn't it??

I signed up for bellabox and received my first box (May 2013) this weekend and let me tell you it looks great and it surely did meet my expectations. See how it looks like.

A peek into the contents of bellabox May 2013

Let me tell you what I think about the whole concept and the box...
I feel the concept is most suitable for those who love to try out new products and like to pamper themselves.
Pros-
1. You get to try luxe and new products before actually buying them.
2. The box priced at S$19.95 a month gives you a good value for the money by sending out few sample sized products and a few full sized.
3. You get vouchers for other services like spa, beauty treatments etc.
4. If you fill up your beauty profile, the samples can be customized as per your needs and requirements.
5. The reward points can be used to buy full sized products) (that you have already tried and tested, from their online shop.
6. The excitement to open and see what surprises awaits you when you receive your box.
7. The convenience of sitting at home and getting to try new stuff...!

Cons-
1. You are not sure of  what exactly you are getting in the box.
2. Can't think of any other, will let you know if it comes to my mind!!

The theme for May 2013 box was Ready for Cannes. It There were a lot of interesting products and I got  more products  for eyes. Will talk about the May Box and the samples in next post... Till then keep reading and if you would like to try out the bellabox, you can do it at bellabox.sg
