Too Faced Glamour To Go Palette Review

Hello girls~! Today I will be reviewing on my all times favourite Too Faced Glamour to Go palette! I got this from Sephora about a year ago and I have been using it for my daily make-up as well as make-up for events. It consist of 8 eyeshadows, universal bronzer, brightening blush and a shimmering lip gloss.  The packaging is super pretty since it is a pocket palette, it is easy to pop it into my bag when I'm in a rush and intent to do my make-up on the go. It is also not very heavy as it seems. Now let's move on to the main part of my review!

My thoughts:
Shadows:
All shadows are very pigmented and glides on smoothly without using primer but if you use a eye primer, the colour will turn out even more gorgeous. The only problem that i have is that there will be fall off for 2 shadows for me which is the last 2 glittery midnight blue and dark blue. So when I want to use them, I will do my eye make-up first before my foundation routine.

Bronzer:
It is a shimmery bronzer which I personally don't really like because I will look like I have a lot of glitter on my face and my contouring will not be as natural as compared to matt bronzer. Nonetheless, the bronzer stay all day and does help in contouring my face.

Blusher:
All I can say is that this is a gorgeous shimmering pink shades that last for the whole day as well. The colour is not too strong to overpower your eye make-up and you can even go for smokey eye make-up and bold lip make-up. It doesn't make your face cakey even though it is a powder blush.

Lip gloss:
This is just not my type of gloss. It is a creamy type of gloss and the colour is just pale although it look like a baby pink. This is the only thing I don't like about this palette. I guess everything has it pros and cons? But I assure you that it is still one of my favourite palette.

I came across quite a few review on this palette and most of them say that the shadows aren't pigmented which makes me wonder why hahaha it is very pigmented for me and it can be compare to UD Naked palette. I guess if you use eye shadow primer, the shadows will be a lot more vibrant and pigmented.

I rate it a 8.5/10.



The swatches: I applied it only once. The sequence is a opposite but I guess it is quite obvious so I won't number them :)


& below that shimmery shades is the lip gloss which I detest LOL. It seriously doesn't make any difference and instead makes my lips feels stuffy, sticky and gross looking.


Left: Bronzer
Right: Blusher


Finally below is just some photos of me when I use this palette for my make-up. 





Thanks for taking your precious time to read my review! I still have a lot more make-up and skincare products to review on but since I am busy with school, it might take sometime. Was thinking if I should do a make-up tutorial using this palette. Hmmm

Have a great day ahead!

HK TRIP DAY 2

 School's on monday so i thought i had to quickly blog about all my 5 days in HK. Let's begin on my day 2 in HK! We woke up at around 8:30am and this is our first photo of the day lol




Then we went opposite our hotel and has some mcd breakfast before we head to the ferry station for our Macau trip.


This is my hotcakes + sausage which can be found in sg


This is the special macaroni they have in their breakfast menu. Every country have their own special dish that other country does not carry so when we travel we will always try their mcd



After our breakfast we went back to the lobby to wait for the shuttle bus to Kowloon MTR station to go to the ferry station for our Macau trip.


The 11am one sold out already so we had no choice but to get the 1215pm one . 



Selfies while waiting for our TURBOJET LOL 








 Selfies on the JET too hahaha 






 All the selfies spam opps "good sunlight calls for some selfies" LOL my quote










 I personally like taking sea transport cause of the awesome views ^_^ After it departed for less than 20 minutes all of us fell asleep. 




 Upon arriving, we went to look for shuttle bus to Venetian Hotel and this is the views from the bus 




Selfie spam again sorry hehe










This is actually indoor and the interior is really nice. I guess all of this are inspired by Venice? 




There's a little boat here that i thought it is for display purpose but it is actually for tourist to ride it lol i find it pretty lame as there are no scenery to enjoy but just interior design.






My beloved papa&mama








As i mentioned earlier this is indoor so the reason i wore shades is actually for selfie purposes HAHA wts






I can feel all the MBS feel inside maybe because there are casino and also it is mainly build for tourist.



Okay and this is outdoor haha i wore shades here cause it was really sunny!! 





After walking and walking we went to hunt for a place to dine as we are all famished and we chanced by this place that sells wonton noodles and we decided to eat here. 




The wonton noodle tasted really good! The noodle damn "Q", the shrimp wonton very juicy & the soup broth is sooo good 


After our late lunch, we went to walk around the streets and buy a lot of goodies and then we meet Ruins of St. Paul's! The crowd was crazy. I repeat. C R A Z Y. So we can't even squeeze in for any artistic shot haha in the end we just took selfies from afar :(














 After that we walk back to Venetian hotel and took the hotel shuttle bus back to the ferry station as we bought a 7pm ferry back. 
F.Y.I we didn't stay in Macau
This is the evening view from the ferry



After we reach our hotel and loaded stuffs that we bought, we headed out again via cab this time round.




After we reach this Ye Shi we got lured in to a cheater stall -___- 
It was damn expensive and the vege sucks.
The interesting part is the clay pot rice we ordered wasn't here and when we asked them why it took so long, they said it was sold out & WE WERE SO ANGRY MY DAD SCOLDED THEM. OUT OF STOCK & U JUST MAKE US WAIT THERE LIKE IDIOT?!?!?!?! 





After the angry meal, we were hunting for more food and we saw a stall with long queue so we went to check it out. It was a dessert stall! Yay! We went in to satisfy our sweet tooth ^_^
This 芒果绵绵冰 is damn good!!!!!



The cheese cake is very cheesy and so it depends on personal preferences but i really enjoy it


Sis's excited face hahaha


 This is the hot dessert my dad ordered & it tasted good T_T


 Sob sob there's no word for me to describe already. EVERYTHING TASTED AWESOME


I wanted to order the CK Crispy Pastry but it was sold out :'( It looks damn good ok i bet it tastes good too



Piping hot tangyuan <3


 After dessert, we walked around saw this congee stall and since we did not have any proper meal, dad wanted to dabao 3 bowls of congee for all of us to share back in the hotel
No pictures of the congee but i took this picture below because i still don't understand what the heck is fish sound LOL


Okay so back to cosy hotel yay! We bought Portuguese egg tart in Macau earlier JAJJAN!!!! Although this is not the famous one but at least we got egg tart from macau and this is good hehe






Sisters eating congee hahaha


After that we went down to hotel lobby for wifi haha damn pathetic and it was raining outside so it was freezing cold brrrrrr



Around 330am we went back up and bathe then call it a day! 
This is a picture of me featuring my horrendous dark eye circles 


End of day 2! Stay tune for day 3! Thanks for reading xoxo
