October+November Haul + Swatch & Quick Review Drugstore Makeup : Beauty Blender, Maybelline, Revlon, NYX, ELF, Jordana, Wet ‘n Wild, and Oriflame

Hai everyone, this time I’ll do makeup haul for October and November purchase in one post,  because like usual my schedule fall apart :D but I promise to reschedule and for monthly haul I’ll try to post every single month, on last weeks in the month, sharing for all product that I purchase with swatch, quick review, and other thoughts.

heavenly bliss :p

Right now I become a lil’ bit makeup shopaholic :D every chance, every sale I never miss to purchase some makeup product. I always love drugstore makeup, the price is reasonable for me, the quality quite good enough. Some people said drugstore product (ex: Maybelline, Revlon, etc) in Indonesia have a different quality and result when we applied, with drugstore product in USA, maybe it’s because the factory and material, that’s why sometimes drugstore product USA more expensive (more less $1 - $3), but it doesn't means drugstore product Indonesia poor quality, it’s still become my choice too. The most visible difference of drugstore product in Indonesia and USA, drugstore product USA  is more product option and more range color, especially for my skin tone (I have warm undertone, shade medium-tan), it’s hard enough to find foundation shade in drugstore product Indonesia either local product.

I usually purchase product from USA and foreign in TwentySeven Shop and Pre Order by Mimo *love them both!, the service never let down+the owner very nice. And for local product and local purchasing my favorite place in Bandung is Mahmud Store, the have best price and deal even though the sales person not friendly -.- but who care about their bitch attitude, I have the best deal of my makeup price :)
Actually I bought all of this product since October, I purchase at TweentySeven Shop (ELF, cherryculture.com(40% off all items!), drugstore.com), Mahmud Store, and Oriflame. For USA product I have to wait a month until the goods arrived at my home. 

I purchase 5 different eyeliner (*I never say enough for eyeliner hehe) 2 pencils eyeliner and 3 liquid eyeliner. From Maybelline (purchase at Mahmud Store)  I have Hyper Sharp Liner #Black and Crayon Liner #Brown, Hyper Sharp Liner #Black is one of my favorite, this is my second time purchase of this product, this eyeliner come with light texture and medium black color, easy to apply with hyper sharp gentle brush applicator, suited   for rush makeup. Crayon Liner #Brown, like soft crayon or pastel packed in pencil, intense brown color, suited with light makeup look and ‘no makeup’ makeup look. From Jordana (purchase at Cherryculture.com) Fabuliner Liquid Eye Liner #01 Black, light texture and light black color (sheer black), easy to apply with stylo applicator (felt-tip pen), suited for daily light makeup. From Wet n’ Wild (purchase at drugstore.com) Color Icon Shimmer Eye Pencil #Cooper, this poduct not only used as eyeliner but also can be used as  eyeshadow, soft crayon or pastel packed in pencil, cooper light brown with shimmer. From Revlon (purchase at Mahmud Store) Color Stay Liquid Eyeliner #Blackest Black, the most intense black color compare to other product, when I applied on my upper lash line it’s lil’ bit stung, I don't know why, maybe my upper lash line skin is sensitive but overall I love this product and the color intensity it’s amazing, suited for full makeup and second layer after using false eyelashes.

         Eye base from NYX (purchase at Cherryculture.com) High Definition Eye Shadow Base, make color of eyeshadow pop up, define, and no crease at all (*yeahh!). Quite long lasting ( I didn't count the time :D sorry, next time I will count), I compare this product with Stay Don’t Stray from Benefit Cosmetic, it’s almost has same result, for drugstore makeup with reasonable price, I definitely love this one! <3

Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain #005 Crush, dark pink cheery color, long wear balm stain. Matte Lipstick #007 In the Red, warm tone red color, more like brown-red, totally perfect for my skin. And from Wet n’ Wild I have Wet n’ Wild Megalast Lipcolor in 4 different color (purchase at drugstore.com), #908C Sugar Plum Fairy, sexy plum color, like super dark pink and semi vampy pink. #918D Cherrybomb, the sexiest dark red color. #912C  In The Flesh warm pink nude color, and #903C  Just Peachy, bright pink nude color.

Highlighter from ELF (purchase at eyeslipsface.com) Shimmering Facial Whip #1205 Lilac Petal, is the dupe for  High Beam from Benefit Cosmetic *I’m happy girl, just $1 I can get $26 looks :). All Over Color Stick #3102 Persimmon & #3106 Spotlight, this product has same function with shimmering facial whip in stick, it’s more easier to blend (for me), for #3102 Persimmon the color almost same with Lilac Petal, but more pink and for  #3106 Spotlight the color it’s too white and less shimmer.

Clear Smooth BB Silk Poreless White Powder #05 Sand Beige from Maybelline (purchase at Mahmud Store) this is BB cream in powder version, first I really want to buy a Korean BB cushion from Laneige, but it’s too pricey for Korean brand (my opinion) so when I found this I don’t think twice, medium – full covered, I choose the darkest color in range but still too white for my skin tone :( I hope there more color range, overall I love this product, I use almost for my daily makeup.

Mascara from Maybelline (purchase at drugstore.com) and ELF (purchase at eyeslipsface.com), Maybelline Volum Express One by One Waterproof Mascara #265 Blackest Black, this mascara it’s amazing! Build up the eyelashes, separated one by one and make the eyelashes longer and thicker naturally, perfect for daily makeup, but less drama for full cover makeup, overall I love this one for everyday makeup. ELF Wet Gloss Lash and Brow Clear Mascara #2201 Crystal, I use this product for shape and seal the eyebrow, this product it’s quite good, but not contain wax so this product it’s not waterproof.
