I'm really supposed to rotate my makeup every once in a while, but then it's been so long and I miss T'estimo so much I pushed everything else aside to go back to the brand. I've got tons of stuff I haven't even touched, but luckily I also have T'estimo items I haven't used either, like these Color Cheeks :D Hooray!
OR-16 is not orange at all. Instead, it is a matte coral-toned powder pink that reminds me of the reddish flush my cheeks and chin (and nose too, unfortunately) get on colder days. That's just looking at it though. Upon application, it sheers out to just a natural glow. Oh well, it's still a very pretty natural blush. It just didn't do what I thought it would.
RD-19 is a strawberry red that does what I thought OR-16 would do - giving me the flush my face would get in colder days. Let's just say I've been looking for a blush that could this for a very long time, not because I want to look cold, but I wanted to recreate Vicki Zhao Wei's look in the picture below.
Isn't her blush just adorable? I love it! She's my favorite Chinese actress, by the way. I've been watching her ever since her debut in Huanzhu Gege days.

PK-17 is your good ol' pink blush that just can't go wrong. It looks a bit cooler in the picture, where as in natural light it's a bit more muted. I could have sworn there were some purplish shimmers in the blush, but then after the first couple of swipes, they were all gone, so perhaps they were just sprayed on. Hmm...
See my previous posts...

I like the second ones..the gold shimmer looks so pretty...
ReplyDeleteIMO, Zhao Wei looks drunk in that picture but then again, the tipsy blush from tarte is indeed very pretty...
I was a huge follower of her show as well way back when...the 1st and 2nd ones are so cool, the 3rd ones seems retarded just by looking at the cast...
I was actually trying to "relive my childhood" by watching the show again 2 years ago...I got bored in about 2 minutes...I guess that I totally grew up...
(But for some reasons, whenever I get near a TV, I still tuned to Disney channel though..."
Hi again :)
ReplyDeleteLOL I never thought of that picture as her being drunk!!! But now that you mentioned it, I guess it sort of looks like she is, doesn't it? haha
Yeah, well, HZGG is my guilty pleasure. It's nostalgic for me, reminds me of my high school-college days. And yeah, I haven't seen the 3rd series and I'm not really interested in seeing it at all. The *real* Xiao Yanzi is not in it, what's the point? :P
