Are you a makeup shopaholic? Considering how I love to collect makeup and my concealer is currently running low, this new Benefit collection caught my eye instantly.

Confessions of a Concealaholic.

This concealing and brightening kit tempts you to embrace your inner conceal-a-holic! Benefit asks why fight it when you can hide it, conceal it, camouflage it, and cover it? This concealing and brightening kit is touted to have EVERYTHING you need to live happily ever after.

This set contains:
- 0.25 oz “That Gal” brightening face primer
- 2 x 0.04 oz Boi-ing industrial strength concealer in 01 Light (for fair complexions) and 02 Medium (for medium complexions) for custom concealing
- 0.11 oz Erase Paste brightening camouflage for eyes and face in No. 2 (for medium complexions)
- 0.03 oz Lemon Aid (sheer pale yellow) color correcting eyelid primer
- 0.03 oz Eye Bright (pale pink) instant eye brightener
- Concealer Brushes
- step-by-step lesson

Benefit, known for it’s cute pop packaging, manages to make this one look like a secret diary of sorts. Your most well-kept secret is hidden under a “lock and key”. Open it up and inside, all sorts of concealers inside to help conceal whatever, whenever!

For USD36, it sounds like a pretty good deal to me. This kit gives you the luxury of trying out all the various concealers Benefit has to offer. If you happen to stumble upon one that you particularly like, get it later in full size! Concealer brushes and step-by-step lessons make it easy for beginner concealer users to become a concealaholic.

Seeing how my current favourite concealer is running out, I’m quite game to testing out some new products that might work wonders for dark eye circles.

The set is available at Sephora.com.

Has anyone tried out any of the Benefit concealers before? What are your views?

Alice in Wonderland has finally opened in Singapore cinemas! And adding to the Alice in Wonderland craze, makeup brand Paul & Joe has jumped on the bandwagon and teamed up with Disney to come up with a new collection to commemorate Tim Burton’s movie.

How cute is the packaging?! They used Disney’s classic Alice in Wonderland.

Sheer Orange – Daydream (blue set)

According to BritishBeautyBlogger, the collection has launched in February on ASOS.com. I wonder if they’re still available.

Are you as mad-hattered as I am with regards to all the merchandise relating to this movie? I would totally buy everything if I could, because Alice in Wonderland is such a classic!

In light of the upcoming Valentine’s Day holiday, Ima write about the M.A.C Love Affair collection because they feature 3 different types of lippies to help you pucker up!

Lip PencilA pencil designed for shaping, lining or filling in the lip.
Beet – Vivid Reddish-pink
Dervish – Pinky-mauve
Redd – Clearly Red

LipstickColour plus texture for the lips.
Lovelorn – Emotive blue pink (Lustre)
Lickable – Bright clean blue pink (Cremesheen)
Lady Danger – Vivid bright coral-red (Matte)
Snob – A ladylike mauve (Satin)
Violetta – Bright violet (Amplified Creme)

Dazzleglass CremeThe M?A?C cult favourite Dazzleglass with a creamier, smoother, but no less shiny or dazzling effect.
My Favourite Pink – Light Blue Pink With Pearl
Creme Allure – Bright Yellow Plum
Totally Fab – Bright Yellow Red With Pearl

I’m not that much of a lippie girl (more of an eyeshadow person), but I’m totally diggin’ the lipsticks Lovelorn, Lady Danger and the Dazzleglass Creme in Totally Fab and My Favourite Pink! Although this is a slightly dated collection and you cant find these in stores, you can still get them at maccosmetics.com. Maybe they should have launched this a leeeeeettllee later for people like me who do last minute shopping. Haha.

My love affair is with eyeshadows. What’s yours?
