Six Ways To Incorporate Sunscreen In Your Makeup Routine

Six Ways To Incorporate Sunscreen In Your Makeup Routine

Videos Cosmetopia Digest   Thursday, July 20, 2017

Ever skipped sunscreen because it left a whitish cast, or there was no time, or it made your makeup look weird? Or, because it made you oily, or pilled up, or because it made you break out? Makeup wouldn't stay on top?
I've been guilty of eschewing the SPF - for all of the above reasons. Thankfully, now you have products which don't give you any of these problems. Best of all, there are multi-tasker sunscreens which fit seamlessly into your makeup routine. No, I'm not talking about foundations with SPF, or moisturisers with SPF. Au contraire, new generation sunblocks function as primers, setting sprays, essences, and more, as you will see below.

Here are six ways of incorporating sunscreen into your morning routine, without disturbing your makeup.

Year-End Sephora and Boots Haul

Year-End Sephora and Boots Haul

Shopping Cosmetopia Digest   Saturday, December 24, 2016

T his haul is smaller - and less exciting - than my usual hauls. I am working on shrinking my need-list instead of going overboard in-store, and that I picked up just the four makeup products from Sephora is proof. I have since discovered that I am 15 points away from my next premium gift. A lip balm would have seen me through to the next tier. Argh!

Scroll down to find out what I bought in my last beauty haul of 2016.

International beauty box: My September 2013 Glamabox is a work of art

International beauty box: My September 2013 Glamabox is a work of art

Subscription box Cosmetopia Digest   Monday, October 07, 2013

When I saw spoilers of the September 2013 Glamabox, I was more excited about the box itself than the contents! The box is designed by French artist Agnes Boulloche and is Alice-in-Wonderland themed. Isn't it gorgeous? It is just a little larger than the Glossybox and is equally sturdy and strong enough for heavy-duty storage and rough handling. This one is a collectible!
Glamabox is based in Hong Kong, and is well known in Singapore and Taiwan. Each item is handpicked by founder and international fashion model Lisa Selesner, who tries them first. The box costs HKD118 a month (That's Hong Kong Dollars. Google for exchange rates).  Postage varies, depending on your exact city/location, registered, EMS or speed post options - you need to ask by emailing them here. Please do mention that you heard about this from or were sent by Renu of My Beauty Junction!
