Loreal Paris EverSleek Smoothing System - Great value?

U guys know I'm a sucker of beautiful packages kan kan kan?????

I know I know, I still have stock of my Redken Smooth Lock shampoo and conditioner, but sometimes, saya sentiasa gagal melawan nafsu, especially when it comes to hair care stuff. Yalaaa, who doesn't

It was a really nice Sunday where we spend some leisure time in Ikea, not to look for furniture, but more to look at some deco ideas for our new home.... (belum siap lagi ye... lambat lagi...). Sambil2 tu, we wanted to look for a baby chair for Ammar. Iyalaa...sekarang sudah pandai duduk demand2 makanan...so its only fair for him to have 1 chair for himself!


Sukanya dia.....

Anyway, we decided to make a stop at the Curve. Boleh kire dengan jari berapa kali I datang Curve ni...maybe due to distance kot... its too far from my home and plus, KLCC is my backyard so...let's say I'm pretty much self-sufficient shall we? :D

Meriah juga hari Ahad ni... tapi sale2 mcm kurang menarik...if  I came on a different day, would it be different?

Jom teman I gi Watson? Nak cari shaver.

(Hubby changes shaver as frequent as he changes his t-shirts!...)

Scan scan scan.....

Menariknya!

Apparently, Loreal Paris came out with a new range of Hair Care Products! The best part is that its SULFATE free!

Oh my god, a few months ago, you could only get sulfate free shampoos at high end salons and now, you could get at Watsons for a fraction of the price!!!

OMG!!!!!




What happen to Old range Loreal Elseve????

Tapi ni mcm lagi best! Wooo~

Of course I got hooked! I mean I've tried Elseve range, and I hope this one is better!

Bought the shampoo and conditioner, and 2 of these products only costs me less than RM 50! ...wooo~

Am I crazy?  Or genius???

Laura Mercier Foundation Powder

I'm always disheartened every time my curiosity and expectation doesn't meet the mark I was hoping it should. Many readers (I'm sure) would agree with me that if you were to spend on costly cosmetic items, you'd already have an upper hand towards certain information that you would need to know, before you actually make your purchase.

Don't get me wrong, sometimes its not due to the product, but due to the item's characteristics as a whole. 

So I was loitering around Bangsar Village while waiting for my newly wed buddies to arrive, since we promised to have big mouth burgers at The Daily Grind. I'm not sure about you guys, but if I'm up for a gourmet burger, this place is my pick. 

Down-On-The-Farm Burger... always satisfies me like wow!

Anyway, I have always wanted to visit Laura Mercier's beauty counter. As you guys know, I'm a huge junkie for natural, barely there makeup rather than stage-look makeups; which is why I post a lot of Bobbi Brown and Burberry entries in my blog. 

I know, i know...Soon I'll post some eye-shadow reviews..promise!!!

I have no idea why, but I seem to be "eating" powder rather than wearing it. Ha ha ha... but god knows how I always prowl for face powder macam how I go for food-hunting. It irks me like mad!

So this is my purchase:-

The Packaging

I can't say I love the packaging. Feels too plasticky and very fragile. Its not as solid feeling as the other powders.

Description

The thing that had me slightly disappointed was the content. Initially I was overjoyed the fact that it was priced at RM150, which I thought was okay, judging that most powders are priced way more expensive.

But when I looked at the content description, the powder only weighed 7gms!!!

7 Grammes!!!! That's so cheapskate! Kalau macam ini, sebulan je dah habis!!!

Most other powders weighed like 11gm - 12gms on average, hence I was frustrated that this one had so little content in it.

My bad. Should have checked the content first online before purchasing. Aisehhh........

Coverage

Its very sheer I would say, something that I really liked about it. It also leaves a barely-there feeling of no-makeup makeup. Plus point there. But don't expect it to cover any imperfections (a lot on my face I would say), cuz its not meant to do that.

Verdict

I would say its a practical powder; no fuss, you can bring it anywhere since its lightweight. Coverage is good, not cakey yet not drying. Even though it leans on to more mattifying effect, its suitable to be used by both oily or dry skinned people.

Would I buy it again?
I must say I love this better than the Dior Light Veil  previously purchased. But for the content of 7gms???
I must seriously think....
