CANMAKE Cheek!

Thursday, July 7th, 2011 | 88 Comments

Just the other day I came home to find a package from Firipa! She sent me loads of cheek colors!!!!!! SO EXCITED TO USE THEM! I never even tried CANMAKE powder colors, only their cream cheek. So yesterday I wore “[PW26] ピンクホリック☆” Pink Holic! LOL Like pinkaholic I suppose which definitely describes the color, and their brand highlighter Milky White.



I changed my bangs a little. They are short and blunt again. I had oval bangs since last October? November? So I wanted a change. It’s very hot for oval bangs and my perm has worn off so my hair is very limp and thin again, haahaa. So oval bangs weren’t working as well anymore. Maybe I’ll get another perm but not soon, I’m just waiting to be struck with hair inspiration~~ Until then c’est la vie!

Wow, that looks totally nice with your complexion…you look very “pure”.

I’m not sure pink blush would look good on me however, because my skin is more brownish tan. =/

If by “pure” you mean PALE then that’s me! LOLOL *avoided the sun this summer :( * harharhar xD

I dunno, I sorta like the look of bright pink on tan! It’s so healthy looking to me but I understand your hesitation too

Haha, yes you are pale, but it’s very “clean” aka pure. It’s nice, really .

Since I’m just really Asian, if I’m pale, I have a weird yellow-hint of paleness. And because of that, I think a bronze type of blush would suit my complexion more.

I’m literally just brown with yellow undertones and *all* I ever wear is pink blush, haha. I think it can work for you!

Cute! I’ve only tried the Cream Cheek but those are lovely as well!

Your new bangs look really pretty!

jenny said
July 7, 2011 @ 8:00 pm

Yeah I only have the vitamin orange (? I think that’s the name) of the cream blush from CANMAKE

And thanks! I’m still not used to them yet :X

The pink color suits you well!

I got obsessed with orange/coral cheeks lately and went searching for some. I saw the CANMAKE ones at the store, but ended up getting the Majolica Majorca Puff de Cheek ones (one pink and one orange b/c i couldn’t decide) instead.

Good thing I didn’t see this post yet or I might have been tempted to get their blush too.

jenny said
July 8, 2011 @ 2:04 pm

I totally have the majorlica Majorca in apricot!!! I even took snaps for a post I’m planning to publish. It’s FANTASTIC! I have to say the mm blush is a lot better in pigment etc.

Wow so many blushes! Uber jelly! You can never have enough amazing Japanese makeup products, that’s what I think!

You look really cute-the blush suits you very well! And your top is lovely, ahh~

jenny said
July 8, 2011 @ 2:05 pm

I think I’m forced to agree with you on that!!! I have so many Japanese makeup products but I always love getting more and more!

have you ever tried Tarte’s “Amazonian Clay Blush” line?
they’re really good, and they last all day long…
i feel like you’ve blogged about them before, no? or maybe it’s all in my imagination xD

jenny said
July 8, 2011 @ 8:06 pm

I haven’t actually. I used to have a Tarte cheek stain instead so maybe that’s it?? I’ll take a look at these though next time I’m at Sephora!!

Missha M and I always top it off with Benefit’s “Get Even” powder in ‘light’ shade.

Ah, those are some pretty blushes - if only shipping Canmake/any Japanese products wouldn’t be so high :(

jenny said
July 8, 2011 @ 8:28 pm

I agree, it’s so $$$ to buy them outside of Japan x(

Wow very pretty! I also use Canmake powder cheek but a different colour, and they are really good!

Love your new bang, suits you!

Pretty colours! I’ve got one canmake pink blush but your pink looks like a cuter shade. :3

jenny said
July 8, 2011 @ 8:47 pm

You probably have that one shade lighter pink, it’s cute looking, like milky pink!

Hey, do you use fake lashes in this picture ?

jenny said

A little bit! I’m wearing some top natural style accent (half) lashes They’re not very dramatic

July 8, 2011 @ 9:05 am

Such a cute picture^^ I love how the bright pink colour shows up on your face. Wish I could use light pink blush too, but my skin has a yellow tone which sometimes makes the blush look a bit more orange T^T

jenny said
July 8, 2011 @ 8:54 pm

Which blush shades do you like best??

Sabina ☆ said
July 9, 2011 @ 6:26 am

I like bright pink shades the most to achieve a dolly look^^ Right now I’m using Candydoll strawberry pink blush which I really like since it’s so pigmented and has a nice colour

 
 
 
Mika said
July 8, 2011 @ 9:55 am

I really like these colors. They’re very vibrant and look really pigmented! Also, I like your bangs! Blunt bangs suit you very well :]

jenny said
July 8, 2011 @ 8:55 pm

Ah thanks! I used to have blunt bangs 2 years ago so I didn’t think it would be too bad going back but funnily enough they still seem strange this way to me hahaa

You know what jenny? I think you should hold another giveaway again. And perhaps, maybe, you should kind of… Put in some canmake cheek collies in there these collies look goooorgeous on you :3

jenny said
July 8, 2011 @ 8:56 pm

Hahahahahaha! Awe I should do another giveaway!! I need to start thinking about it maybe & collecting items. I’m just so busy these days I wore about getting the items sent to the winner in a timely manner LOL

Aw cute present I’ve never worn blusher but these do look like pretty colours.

jenny said
July 8, 2011 @ 8:58 pm

I used to avoid blush b/c my Mom basically taught me that blush was for whores LOL but in college I embraced it & it is now my #1 fav makeup item. When I only have time to do 1 makeup thing I pick blush EVERY TIME.

I like your new bangs! You looks SHO cute!!

jenny said

You’re too kind, thank you thank you I’m still getting used to seeing them on me

 
 
Huynh said
July 8, 2011 @ 4:14 pm

The colors of the blushes are really nice. How would you describe the pigmentation?

jenny said
July 8, 2011 @ 9:00 pm

I’d compare them to like Cover girl, or Maybelline but slightly more pigmented. They are build-able but only to a certain point. It is CANMAKE so it’s an “affordable” brand which means pigmentation is gonna be a bit weaker than, let’s say, Candy Doll.

 
 
Firipa said
July 8, 2011 @ 5:22 pm

looks great on you!!
the oval bangs were more on the cute & elegant side, now it’s more on the cute & young style. either way, me gusta!

jenny said
July 8, 2011 @ 9:01 pm

Awe I look young? Hahahah I really hope not, I sorta like the idea of cute & elegant more, haahaa. Oh well, what’s done is done. I’ll probably change them. I really don’t want to look too young, lol

Firipa said
July 9, 2011 @ 10:05 am

eh what’s wrong with looking young?
you do not have to worry about that! when you become 50 and you still dress like a 20 year old, then you have to think about what looking young means, haha
either way, oval or not, bangs look cute on you!!

jenny said

The pink looks super bright in the case, but it looks really nice on you Love it!

jenny said
July 8, 2011 @ 9:02 pm

I know right!? It’s not quite as brightly pigmented as it looks

 
 
bloomzy said
July 9, 2011 @ 8:15 am

I love the powder cheeks by Canmake. I have a cream one too but I have yet to use it because I love the powder ones so much haha

jenny said
July 9, 2011 @ 11:49 am

Really?! Which shades do you have?! They have so many great options!

 
 
Noora said
July 9, 2011 @ 11:26 am

Ooh, so lovely blush shades! : ) I have been thinking about trying canmake too, especially that super pink blush looks like delicious, ! ; )

jenny said
July 9, 2011 @ 11:49 am

It’s definitely a great bright pink shade!

 
 
Courtney said
July 9, 2011 @ 6:20 pm

I understand the need for change! I keep growing and chopping my hair for that reason…lol but oval bangs sound nice! Maybe I’ll do something like that. I need a little oomph! perhaps

~very pretty pink!

Hello!
I always read your blog, but this will be my first comment ()
Sorry that it is quite late for this post though (-_-
The blush looks very nice, you should try layering it over Canmake’s Cream Blushes. It gives a very nice effect (^~^)
&I was wondering how the Canmake Highlighter is? I’ve been very curious for a long time now.
Thank you~!
