Skinfood Lemon pact pressed powder refill & Buckwheat Loose powder

I love the Buckwheat Loose powder! I use it to set my Skinfood BB Creams. It really keeps oil at bay. I only retouch during lunchtime using the Lemon pact powder. The smell's also nice too!

Fanny Serrano gel eyeliner & their slanted eyeliner brush

Tested the eyeliner at the back of my hand, when I got home I tried to run water on it to check if it easily smudges.. I'm quite impressed! Its really waterproof!

Their eyeliner brush is also good! The slanted brush makes eyeliner application a breeze. I like this better compared to my Elianto eyeliner brush which has a rounded brush..

After hearing so many good reviews on GT and my friends, I decided to try this.. At last a foundation that really matches my skintone! =)
