Voce Sep '09

The September issues of Voce, Biteki and Maquia are all out now at Kinokuniya. I picked up Voce (S$14), mainly for the Paul & Joe zip pouch in the new fall print. The mag also comes with sample sachets of the Paul & Joe Moisturising Foundation Primer #1 and #3 (0.3ml each) and Light Cream Foundation S #30 (2 x 0.3ml). As you can probably guess, the main theme in this issue is fall/winter base makeup with the spotlight on the newest foundations and primers.


The pouch is sadly, yet another thin and flimsy polyester pouch with absolutely no padding which makes it unsuitable for fragile items. It is definitely not as well made as the cushy pouch that is the current GWP at Paul & Joe counters in Singapore.


The mag also included 2 sachets of Est Cream Makeup Active Aura Moist in Ochre 03 and Ochre 05 and 2 sachets of Cleansing Essence Enriched (4.5g each). The latter is a makeup remover with a jelly-like texture and made up of over 58% moisturising ingredients.
