About Me

My name is Sophia, and I am in my early 30s. I am from Singapore and I am the sole writer of this blog.

About this Blog

I started this blog in 2006, I like to use a wide range of brands though I seem to have a growing preference for higher-end brands in recent years. I also like to share interesting things I have come across about makeup and beauty.

Currently The Makeup Blogette receives 39,000 unique views monthly or 2,238,932 views and counting.

My Makeup Style

I like classic looks (neutral tones on eyes, anything goes for lips & cheeks), though occasionally I try out dramatic/ statement looks.  I believe that a flawless base is the key to achieving great makeup looks.  I also believe that if you don't have great skin to start with, fake it with a good foundation routine, and even greater skincare.  I am currently loving Clarins & Lancome skincare products, and Vichy NormaDerm for tackling with breakouts.

What Cameras do I use?

Most of the pictures you see in post 2010 entries are taken with my Canon G-11.  Previously I was using Canon Ixus 80.  I do post some pictures which are taken with my iphone4 which I will state in that particular entry.  I have stopped watermarking my pictures as of 2011, because I think watermarks are ugly in general, and does not prevent people from stealing my pictures if they wish to.  I just take it as a compliment that my pictures are even worth stealing in the first place. I might look into getting a Canon EOS next year, not just for blogging purposes, but I also like photography in general.

My Favourite Makeup Brand(s)

It is hard to name just one, but I like NARS, Chanel, Illamasqua and the ocasional Guerlain, Dior & Urban Decay item.  I own quite a stash of MAC items, but recently I have stopped catching up with their collections, and I much prefer to splurge on a few really outstanding items.

Where to find me

Twitter (link button above!)  Email (stated above!)  Instagram (makeup_blogette)

I have no official Facebook fan page, and currently have no intention to start one at all.  The Makeup Blogette remains my personal hobby and property, so as such, I don't believe in having a Facebook fanpage for it.

Final Disclaimer

I bought/ paid for all of the products mentioned in this blog. I am not affliated to any company. If certain products are sent to me for review purposes, I will say so and express my honest opinions about them. In any case, I will only review and showcase the products which I have personally tried and tested, and enjoy using. I do not get paid to review anything.

No ads, no paid links etc please.  I am in charge of all content and pictures here.

I am not a makeup artist, nor do I have any professional training in makeup.

    NEW Dior Addict EXTREME Lipsticks & Nail Polish Featuring Kate Moss [Photos & Information]

    [Available 1 April 2012 Lipstick S$45, Le Vernis S$37]]

     

    “WHY DEPRIVE FASHION AND WOMEN OF THE PRESTIGE OF COLOUR?”

    Christian Dior

    DIOR ADDICT EXTREME

    Lipstick that dares it all

     

    The lipstick is the signature and the final touch of a style, pairing allure and color, shine and hold. Dior Addict EXTREME combines vibrant color intensity with the perfection of luminous shine. Extreme, almost breathtaking shades make lips glow with radiant shine in vibrant colors with dazzling pure pigments. Impulsive, easy-to-wear tones mixed endlessly to recreate, invent and express a new femininity in the mirror each day. For a woman who explores her inspirations and plays mix and match with sophistication, in the vibrant harmony of the latest fashion shows. Her allure is all her own. She takes a bold stance with color and elegantly shows off her style...

    She is a Dior Addict EXTREME woman.

     

    A SENSUAL WET-EFFECT TEXTURE

    The melt-away texture of Dior Addict EXTREME, the Dior Addict trademark, leaves just the right amount of pigments on the lips for a dazzling shine color.

    At the heart of the formula, an exclusive combination of 4 waxes with targeted action for an extraordinary finish where comfort and shine melt in an incredibly thin layer with ideal hold. An expert complex, enriched with plumping hyaluronic acid spheres and delicate shine-boosting oils, becomes one with the lips, dressing them in daring shine.

    For the first time at Dior, extremes join forces for original sensuality. Color gains new, featherweight freedom and ideal lasting, and elegantly traces a couture finishing touch.

     

    COLOR ADDICT

    Boldness and elegance

    12 impulsive shades take striking couture stances and find their rightful place in an elegant partition of shade harmonies. From the most daring pinks to nude beiges, color makes a bold statement. A wardrobe that invites women to mix colors, invent their look and emphasize their style.

    Femininity reveals its every facet and surpasses color to create unique, edgy fashion.

    Dior Addict EXTREME or 4 style extracts.

    The “Incognito” style, the elegance of contemporary beige: color embellishes the lips. Just the right dose for sophistication that never strikes a false note and unbelievably natural perfection.

    The “Lucky” style, the boldness of essential pinks: 3 variations of pink for a pout with undeniable attraction, like three must-have pieces in a fashionista’s wardrobe.

    The “Riviera” style, the radiance of sunny colors: lips dress up in an electric Cruise chic style, between daring and exotic sophistication.

    The “Plaza” style, or the glamour of deep, intense shades: 3 refined and captivating shades for eloquent charisma and terribly seductive allure.
