USA Urban Decay Haul + M.A.C Candy Yum Yum Swatches & Review
A friend just got back from USA recently and she helped me get some stuff ^^
M.A.C Candy Yum Yum
Candy Yum Yum used to be a LE color (with one of their past collections) but they’ve most recently brought it back into their perm line! I was actually looking for this for Evey for quite a while (that woman has a fascination with bright fuschia/pink lipsticks and infected me as well) but we couldn’t find it - till now!
It still wasn’t available in Singapore yet, so my friend helped me purchase this in USA. (Thank you PearlyBari! XD)
Candy Yum Yum is matte, and costs $15 USD.

This is quite a true NEON fuschia pink color - blue undertones, and super, duper bright.
NARS Schiap is a little darker, but still bright, and it has managed to turn all my other bright pinks darker and my camera went bonkers with lighting while I was trying to photograph this.
It is most unfortunate that I couldn’t wait and purchased this immediately - because the color totally didn’t suit me. I’m not exactly the fairest of them all, but this color really turned me into a Nicki Minaj. I instantly looked darker (about 4 girls witnessed this at an event while they watched me apply it, how nervewrecking LOL) and I am seriously contemplating selling it.
It’s still an amazing color though, and I wish I could rock it, but neh, I really can’t. Maybe I’ll give it one more go with darker hair (well, it could be my hair color) and see how the pink looks on me then.
MISC Urban Decay Haul
I got the Naked Foundation & they threw in some free samples (awesome!) plus I’d also purchased the travel mystery bag for $16 USD.
Got the foundation in shade 2.0.
Freebies Include: Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion, SuperCurl Curling Mascara & the 24/7 Glide on Eye Pencil in Whiskey. And oh the Naked Skin Beauty Balm!
Urban Decay Naked Skin Liquid Foundation + Freebies
I heart the Naked Skin Liquid Foundation. Review soon!
Travel Mystery Bag
Contents of the Travel Bag
Eyeshadow Primer Potion sample, 24/7 Glide on Shadow Pencil in Rehab, Lip Junkie in Naked, All Nighter and the Supercurl Curling Mascara.
Very handy samples, but I didn’t really like the lip gloss color and the colors for the 24/7 stick was too similar to the freebie. Ahhh was hoping for a brighter color!
Naked Skin Beauty Balm
Swatches of the beauty balm
You can see that it seems a little too orange when blended out - it does seem quite dark for my skin on hand. I’ll do a review soon on both foundations.
Psst… If you’ve seen my post on Urban Decay’s Naked Basics Palette and have been waiting to lay your hands on them, you’ll be glad to know that they’re now available in Sephora, at $45 SGD!
And this coming Sunday, 27th Jan 2013, I’ll be doing a demo at Sephora ION on Yina at 4pm to show you how easy to use the palette is! (Quite paiseh, haha.
