Lunasol UnderEye Concealer - Fake it with zero make-up skill....!!


Trust me lengluis... as we age, the eye area craves attention! And not the good sort of attention though... These days, working late means darkened surrounding eye area. Though sugar_cupcakes never had a problem with the eye area, aging another year has totally changed that!!! SOB-SOB-SOBBBBBB... haihhhhhhhhhhh...

Yeah... faking younger eyes takes all that skill... huhuhuhu... soon all this faking is going to turn into a HIDDEN TALENT of us lengluis... muahahahaha...



This will not be a lengthy review on eye concealers (you can ask Uncle Google that anytime) rather, a straight-to-the-point winner takes all review. (umm... sugar_cupcakes will only do a comparison of make-up which requires almost no make-up skill to apply since this is not exactly a make-up blog...)

Kanebo Lunasol Eye Concealer is a very obvious winner of the lot. Yeah, Shu Uemura ProGel Concealer has "staying power" it's not as comfortable as... Lunasol which tops the lot because:


  1. Its similar to a lip gloss applicator and picks up just the right amount of liquid-y fluid for under the eyes so  the teeny weeny tube actually lasts
  2. Coverage about 90% after dusting with loose powder
  3. Claims to contain collagen for the feel-good texture under the eyes
  4. Because its so easy to use, its takes a lengui with like only 0% makeup skill to be able to use this like a pro
  5. This was a mere accidental find after embarking on the journey to hide the late hours under-eye area

DHC Liquid Collagen - Drink to Younger looking skin......


It was near impossible to stick to just the Avalon Collagen Powder when a household name in skincare DHC's Liquid collagen made its debut in Kuala Lumpur a few months ago... Sheeshh... talk about brand loyalty..

Because most lenglui blogs has already reviewed this, it's only fair to give a share of sugar_cupcakes conclusion here... hohohoho...




Conclusion:

  • Tastes almost like CollagenMax but nicer
  • As usual, liquid collagen shows noticeable results with just a bottle in a couple of days
  • These days, a bottle in a week to a fortnight is enough for maintenance
  • 7000mg collagen in a bottle is more than enough...
  • If the price sticks to its RM149-RM159 for 10 bottles, this brand's a keeper
  • Though we'd still hate collecting glass bottles and feeling not too green...
