Giant Haul - Sephora Singapore Marc Jacobs FIRST IMPRESSIONS, Innisfree, NARS, Dior, M.A.C, L'oreal

Title says it all!
Read on more prices and sneak reviews.


Marc Jacobs The Face II Sculpting Powder Foundation Brush, $79.
This brush feels insanely comfortable! At first touch, it feels better than a $200 Hakuhodo kabuki brush I bought last year.

Marc Jacobs Shameless Bold Blush in Promiscuous, $56.
I find this blush too small, the mirror is tiny - I can hardly see the whole of my lips in it; not sure how to apply blusher using this compact.


The blush itself feels good. But there are drugstore brands and many other cheaper high-end blushers that feel as good and give the same kind of pigmentation. Not worth it to me.

Promiscuous. Heavy swatch on top. Light blended swatch below.
Blush ingredients.
Marc Jacobs Lovemarc Lip Gel, $42.
This is actually cheaper than Chanel and Dior, that both costs $44 per lipstick.

Lovemarc Lip Gel in the shade Understudy.
Understudy. This is the first swatch from the lipstick, hence the slight unevenness.
The pigmentation is crazy. The texture is one-of-a-kind. Super light, ultra long-lasting.

The twisting motion gives makeup-orgasm. The click magnetic closure is more perfect than Chanel's.

The whole make and feel and experience is better than Tom Ford's, yet the Marc Jacobs Lip Gel is up there with Tom Ford.

ABSOLUTELY worth it.



I really like how Understudy is the perfect, perfect, perfect colour for my warm medium skin. It is an even greater fit that my all-time favourite Rouge Bunny Rouge in Whim of Mine.

There is just something more orange, more coral, more beige about Understudy, that makes it look like my natural lips more than the earthy rose RBR lipstick.

Marc Jacobs Highliner in Blacquer, $36.
It is fully retractable and the twisting up is so smooth, like a dream. Another makeup-orgasm.


This lasted through my shower and soap.


I like how black it is yet with a light gloss. Worth it. Need to repurchase in other colours.

The one below is Marc Jacobs's loose powder. I bought it because of the huge compact.

Marc Jacobs Perfection Powder #100 Finish Line, $75.
Yes, huge. My whole face fits into it, with space around. It reminds me of Tom Ford's bronzer compact.


The product itself is much softer and more velvety than NARS Light Reflecting Powder Compact. I have not tested this, but it could potentially usurp the throne from NARS Light Reflecting Powder and give brands like NARS and MUFE a run for their money when it comes to translucent loose powder.


Very similar to NARS and MUFE. But Marc Jacob wins hands down because of the outstanding packaging.

Perfection powder ingredients.
Note: When I compared the ingredients for NARS Light Reflecting Powder and this, they use largely the same things, but in different quantities.

Marc Jacobs Enamoured Nail Polish in #110 Gatsby, $32.
This is worth it. The finish is exactly what you see in the bottle - smooth and metallic to perfection.


Gatsby is the perfect plum tone rose gold for warm medium skin like mine. Absolutely worth it, but it does requires a top coat extend its wear.

On to NARS!

Another blush. My 9th.
NARS Oasis blush, $50.
The deep Earthy rose swatch below is Oasis blush by NARS.
Finally picked up the NARS Light Reflecting Powder.

The sales assistant said to wipe off the first layer before using.

NARS Light Reflecting Powder Compact, $50.

NARS Ita Kabuki Brush, $86.
On to Dior.
Dior Addict Fluid Stick in #552 Joli Reve, $47.
The Fluid Stick is not bad! I love this colour too.

And the four colours below are their signature colour for the Fluid Sticks - Pandore, Wonderland, Aventure, and Mirage.

Free gift from Dior.


On to M.A.C.
M.A.C Eyeshadow in Amber Lights (Frost), $29.
I really regret not buying this colour 5-6 years ago. It IS the perfect all-over-lid eye colour for warm medium skin. It looks exactly like my own skin - my skin but better colour.


Then I visited Innisfree for the first time. 

Picked up lots more tools and skincare than makeup.

Innisfree Haul.
The hand creams are awesome. It may replace my Crabtree & Evelyn La Source Hand Therapy! And it much cheaper than C&E La Source.

Innisfree Jeju Rose Hand Cream, Jeju Cedar Wood Hand Cream, and Jeju Lotus Hand Cream, $6 each.

Innisfree Wine Peeling Jelly Softener, $17.

Innisfree Lip Concealer, $7.

Innisfree Creamy Tint Lipstick, $20.
This lipstick is AMAZING! It gives the Marc Jacobs Lip Gel a good fight!

The one in the centre that is so bright and matte is the Innisfree Creamy Tint Lipstick in #19!


The lipstick is true to what you see in the product, absolutely matte, and absolutely weightless.

Innisfree Waterproof Microcara, $17.
This is so far so good!



Innisfree Waterproof Microcara on the lashes, and M.A.C Amber Lights all over my eyelids.
I love M.A.C Amber Lights! What you see is just one layer done using my bare finger.

Bought a lot of Innisfree Eco Tool brushes.

Bought a L'oreal Le Teint True Match Foundation in G3 too!


I seldom buy foundations in full sizes because I don't use foundations as most of them are too thick and drying for my dry sensitive skin. Much prefer the light BB creams. But this L'oreal Le Teint made me fall head over heels. It swatches amazing, and I can't wait to try it on my face.

Some sneak peaks!

This is the shade G3.
G3 rubbed.
G3 blended.
I think the shade G3 is not exactly my shade. It is slightly, just teeny weeny slightly brown/golden for me. BUT we only get 5 shades here in Singapore - two of them in pink undertones and very pale, two others in neutral tone that looks grey on my skin. The only one for warm skin is G3.

Comparing with Bourjois Healthy Mix Gel Serum Foundation in #52, G3 is much more yellow.

Bourjois Healthy Mix Gel Serum in #52, L'oreal Le Teint True Match in G3.
Obviously G3 is a much better fit than Bourjois #52, which is slightly pale and slightly cool for me.


I like that the pump is highly controllable, so you can dispense as little as you possibly might want.

Will do a full review hopefully soon!

If you want any of these products reviewed first, drop me a message! I will definitely put it on priority.

Thank you for sitting through this giant haul!

LOVE,
PosiNice
