Nars blush: Orgasm

A cult classic for a reason. I love it and will never go back.

Make up forever Ultra HD Foundation and Skin Equalizer (Smoothing) Primer

I FINALLY ran out of my Addiction foundation, Evangelist BB cream, and Smashbox primer. Let me just say that I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Evangelist BB cream and the Smashbox primer. I'll buy them again and again.

But I wanted to try something different.

The make up forever ultra HD foundation is better than the addiction foundation. The coverage is more even and the formula is less heavy.


However, the make up forever primer is not as good as the Smashbox. But I can't find Smashbox in Japan (and Sephora won't ship it to me!). I'll finish this tube, and then find a way to get my Smashbox!

The combo set me back 1 man. But, I got color consultation, which I DEFINITELY recommend, as I ended up being 3 shades darker than both I and the salesgirl thought!!!!

Kanebo Suisai face wash powder

I picked up this face wash powder for about 2000 yen at Yamada Denki.

You empty the capsule into your hand, add a bit of water, rub your hands together, and it turns into a lather.

It's ranked very high on cosme and won a best face wash award in 2014. But it was really drying for me. I'll use it when I travel (no liquids!), even though I prefer my Bifesta cleansing sheets for traveling.

Canmake Candy Wrap Lip Gloss





I picked up the Canmake Candy Wrap lip gloss in Lady Strawberry at Yamada Denki in Tokyo for about 600 yen.

I LOVE the color and the gloss. It's super "garu." Since it's a gloss, it doesn't last long. My only complaint is that it caused acne around my mouth.

I'm going to try it again with a lip pencil.
