TAGGED: Colours of The Rainbow
4:33:00 AM
I've been seeing this "Colors of the Rainbow" tag all over the youtube land, and then several beauty bloggers did it too.
And then when Abigail (the owner of the blog Shrinking Wallet)
did this tag on one of her post, she also tags her readers to do this
tag with her. So I accepted her tag challenge and here is my version of the tag...
First
of all, from what I saw and read, there seems to be no definite rules to do this tag. Well, basically you just
choose one product out of your stash / collection that represents each color of the
rainbow. And the colors of the rainbow are:
(In western spelling) ROY-G-BIV = red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet.
(Or in Indonesian spelling) MEJIKU-HIBINIU = merah, jingga, kuning, hijau, biru, nila, ungu.
(In western spelling) ROY-G-BIV = red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet.
(Or in Indonesian spelling) MEJIKU-HIBINIU = merah, jingga, kuning, hijau, biru, nila, ungu.
Some girls who did the tag also added two additional colors beside the above colors, which
are: Pink and Multi-color. So I'm gonna play along with the main basic colors + pink + multicolor.
Here are my Colors of the Rainbow:
RED
Bioderma Sensibio H20
Some
people think the bottle is towards more pink than red, but I see it as
red so I'm putting this as my "Red" for this Rainbow tag ;) - I've heard
about this amazing make up remover for so long and I am finally glad to
be able to buy this locally now, as Bioderma finally would be available
here on 1st September! If you still haven't tried this yet I suggest
you do, because this is my HG instant makeup remover now. So practical
to use, you only need this bottle and a stack of cotton pads to remove all of your makeup
even your waterproof mascara.
ORANGE
Too Faced Papa Don't Peach Blush
I
know the box looks a little bit dirty and dull but the original color
of this box is a deep orange shade. The blush inside is also a deep
orange shade so I put this up as my "Orange" for the rainbow tag. I really love this blush. First
of all, I adore the packaging. It got this cute vintage / pin-up thing
that really catches my fancy. I also love the coral color of the blush when swiped on my cheek, and this is pretty pigmented too.
Definitely one of my favorite coral blushes ;)
YELLOW
The Body Shop Strawberry Beautifying Oil
Although
the scent is strawberry but the bottle and the liquid is yellow instead of red which usually represent "strawberry".
When trying to pick up the yellow color for this tag I was torn between
this product and the yellow Tony Moly Tangerine Hand Cream, but in the end I
decided to put up this one instead because I love this beautifying oil
so much. I have featured this in my November 2012 monthly fave post and it is still one of my favorite finding during the last 2 years ;)
GREEN
Etude House Aloe Moistfull Soothing Gel
Etude
House is a very popular Korean brand, and this product has been
featured frequently on my blog and I keep mentioning it because I do
love it and been using it everyday as my daily moisturizer. The gel
formula really suits my oily-combination skin and it does give a
soothing feeling to the skin once applied. This makes my skin stays
moist during the day without adding more oil to it. Definitely
recommended.
BLUE
Holika Holika Aqua Fantasy Cream
This is also from another popular Korean brand
called Holika Holika. I actually bought this because of the super unique
and cute packaging (;p) but I was also in need of a good moisturizer
that I can use at night to fight the dryness from the air-con. So far
I'm very liking the formula because this really soothes and calm my skin
down, as well as giving moisture all through the night. This is
actually not a night moisturizer but I just use it at night because of
the hydrating properties in it. I also really love the blue water-drop shape of the packaging!
INDIGO
Holika Holika Jewel-light Waterproof Eyeliner in #3
I
love the Jewel light eyeliner series from Holika Holika because they
have gorgeous rich colors with hints of sparkles in it (hence the name,
"jewel-light"). Shade #3 is a navy blue / indigo color with soft subtle
shimmers that glides on really smoothly on the lids. Maybe you can't see
it on the screen but this eyeliner has indigo color on it's packaging
which resemble the shade inside. I also featured this on my November 2012 Monthly Favorites post because I really love how it gives a soft definition on my eyes.
VIOLET
Urban Decay Matte Eyeshadow in Purple Haze
This
is a rather new item in my eyeshadow collection. When I first saw this
rich purple color I immediately wanted to put it on my shopping cart.
This is actually from the old version of Urban Decay eyeshadow (if I'm
not mistaken) and I love how rich and gorgeous the purple color is. This
also looks gorgeous when swatched and when I put it on my lids.
This
is a more close-up look on the Holika Holika Jewel-Light Eyeliner (for
"Indigo"),
and the Urban Decay Purple Haze Matte Eyeshadow (for "Violet").

Now those are the main colors of the rainbow, but
as I've told you at the beginning of this post I would also do the
additional colors which most of the bloggers/youtubers also added to their
Colors of the Rainbow tag, and those colors are: Pink and Multicolors.
So after rummaging through my stash, here are the items that I chose for the pink and multicolor tag:

PINK
Philosophy Retractable Face Brush
I
decided to feature this favorite travel brush of mine as the "Pink" in
my rainbow tag because I simply adore this cute little brush from
Philosophy's Color of Grace series. The pink color looks dull now
because I've had this for so long and this is the only brush that I
always bring with me in my daily makeup bag everywhere I go. This is
just a simple retractable face brush (that's perfect for travel) encased in a
cute pink and silver packaging with a white fluffy brush strands inside ;)
MULTICOLOR
MUA Mosaic Blush in English Rose
Although
I got this blush from the MUA big sale several months ago but I
actually haven't used this blush yet until now ;p And that's because I
really love looking at the multicolored shades in it and I don't want to
ruin the beauty ^o^ This is probably my most favorite product in my
stash that I'm too afraid to use because I just don't want to ruin the
colors, LOL - but I know someday I'll have to open this up and use it
anyway, but in the mean time I'm gonna let it sit beautifully on my
vanity, looking pretty ;)
Okay,
so that is it! I finally did this tag which I have been wanting to do
for a little while. I enjoyed doing this tag because I think it's such a
fun tag, and if you want to also do it then I tagged all of you
who read this and wants to do it. You
can say that I tagged you, or you can say that you were being tagged by me to do this post ;)
Lemme know the url link if you have done this tag on your blog, I would love to see what products you picked for this tag. Also, please feel free if you want to join the fun by doing this tag too ^__^
Toodles,
