I am really tired and feeling so lousy. But since I have not been keeping any promises recently, thought I should at least try to fulfill this~ So here's the long overdue review!
Actually that's the result of doing my own variation of this...
Which obviously didn't go too well since I didn't prime my lids, thus less pigmented colours and I don't have any lame glitter to be as bling as her T.T
Visual Easy Rating for Eyemazing 003*:
Volume (5/10) - As you can see from the photos, the volume is along a more everyday use look. I don't think it is going for a natural look though, perhaps to just enhance your eyes slightly, for a milder, tamed look.
Length (lash strands) [6/10] - Not too long! This is something I will wear to work~ The length is not too overwhelming and just right! Gotta say once again that it is really good for a everyday use!
Length (lash band) [7/10] - It is the same as the other Eyemazing 001 review that I did. As forementioned, lash band is a little stiff at first use. After some flexing and on repeat use, it becomes better. [which is why this gets a 7 instead of a 6.5 that eyemazing 001 got... I should change that rating to 7 too~]
Ease of Application [8/10] - After using falsies for some time, I am pretty used to them! [I still haven't tried cheap lashes before, so I don't really know if I'm over rating it >.<] Apart from the initial slight difficulties with the slightly stiff lash band, everything else is awesome!
Comfort [8/10] - It's barely there! With lesser volume than the eyemazing 001, it is even lighter! I don't even feel anything weighing down my lashes, but since the lash band is thicker than that of dolly wink's, I am giving it a slightly lower point. [P.S: Thin lash bands like that of dolly wink's can actually make it hard for some people, especially beginners to work with. I will recommend starting out with thicker lash bands (: ]
Reusability [8/10] - I've used them for so so so long! I will say that these are definitely less delicate compared to dolly wink (: With my clumsiness, I've already harmed a few pairs of my dolly winks... [heart pain over the price and unavailability of lashes even if I want to restock the destroyed pairs] I can clean these with much lesser stress as compared to handling dolly wink as there are not coiled around the lash band, they are ON the lash band itself. But you still have to handle with some care as the lashes on the lash band can still drop off if you pull them (obviously...)
Price [8.5/10] - Compared to other "branded" lashes, it is still relatively cheap I guess? At least for me xD [Of cos, diamond lashes are probably cheaper, but I have yet to test them out so it's too soon to speak of the quality x price!]
Overall Rating: 7/10
*Rating based on "Winter makeup" xD But it was a fail. I realised the previous Eyemazing 001 was photographed with "winter x spring" make up ._. Me and my winter coincidences~
It's getting late, shall catch my sleep now. It's a virus season now, take care and don't fall sick! Keep a lookout for the Essentials blog post soon!
they are here! Wanted to post the photos of these lovely babies as well as my eyemazing review but... fell asleep ^^;; Watch out tonight for the pictures! By hook or by crook, I will post em up!
I wanted to blog about some other stuff. But I spent too much time looking at which contact lens to buy (I wanted 10 pairs<-- FML RIGHT?) I managed to narrow down to 6 pairs in the end. But still... I can't seem to cut down anymore T.T Gaaah!
Let me stare a little more till I get sleepy. I don't ask for much, just let me fall asleep by 1am tonight, okay? It's a long day tomorrow.
I had many people staring yesterday and that annoyed me. Did I look that weird?
I don't think so what! Sigh, putting on weight again. See what stress does to me! ): Anyway. Funny encounter at MOS burger yesterday. The old man was so cuteeee.
Me: 1 Corn soup
Him: Corn soup?
Me: Yep.
Him: How's Singapore?
Me: Eh?
Him: How do you find Singapore?
Me: Eh... Fine?
Him: Wait, where are you from?
Me: Singapore?
Him: *laughs uncontrollably* I thought you were from Japan. Sorry!
Me: Ah..ha.hha..ha.
Him: *Starts singing random chinese song loudly* Me: FML.
I had a really crappy day yesterday. Nothing seemed to be going right for me AT ALL. I got so messed up and dirty. Totally pissed off, meh. But then again, I guess the best part is about spending the lazy crappy day with BFF. It's nice to see her showing her stupid face, like finally, haahha.
We had Jap stuff at Liang court for lunch! My curryyyyyyy!
LOVE (:
Giving myself a day to laze is a bad idea. Now that I have time to blog, I don't actually remember much of what I want to blog about. Seriously, how FML is that?
Oh yes, the exchange of my Jill Stuart bag didn't go too well at first. When I got to the Kino at Liang Court, they were only left with one last copy for me to change. When i opened it up to check, there was a hole in the inner compartment. Guess what I was told?
"Either you take the one with the spoilt zip or the one with the thread problem and hole."
You know what I wanted to tell her?
"Why don't you tell me what you will pick if I told you that."
But being me, I am not that mean. I merely told her:
That is not a choice you are offering me.
They tried to brush me off by wanting to tell me it's out of stock everywhere. Well, I told them I saw at least over 20 copies at Ngee Ann City the day before.
Seriously, What kind of attitude is that. Rendered speechless by it. So much for Japanese store, I expected good service. Maybe not wonderful, at least DECENT service.
I insisted on going to another outlet to change since they don't have anymore stock and the choices they offered me were not really a choice at all. Eventually, they allowed me to exchange at Ngee Ann City's Kinokuniya. They just HAD to emphasize that I am only allowed to open ONE copy to inspect. I would love to find out what they will suggest if that copy ended up crapping too (which, luckily, did not.) Sigh, disappointment to the max.
Oh, BFF & I had this for dinner.
It's delicious! Ion basement (: I want to eat this again!
& I'm glad liwen loved the stuffs (: Looks like I will be heading down Bugis for the 3rd consecutive Sunday. Those people must be thinking what's wrong with me. Then again, I think there really is something wrong with me.
Let me give an analogy. However much I hate sad endings, I just like to watch them over and over again. I know I will get pissed off again, but yet I just want to watch it and feel the flood of emotions in that few minutes and think about this & that. It's like inflicting hurt upon yourself; how people cut themselves. You know what's coming and what you are doing will not make things change for the better, yet you are overwhelmed by an unknown desire to do that. I guess everyone just has to be stupid sometimes. Seriously, somebody shoot me already.
Pyong suddenly came to mind and it sounds so cute. I just went PYONG PYONG PYONG when I watched the video of minho & Jjong dancing to magic girl. Ah yes, that was random.
My lashes should be posted to me via registered mail already. Hope it gets here quick~ Oh, I will be giving out the forementioned loose samples when my eyelashes arrive. I can forsee myself to be in a crazily GREAT mood when I get em. Oh! Serra Melliesh part 2 collection was just launched! [I meant just, like JUST.] The only thing from the 2nd collection that caught my attention was the brush (: I hope there will be a spree for Jap stuff again next month. So I can get my Serra Mellish collection of stuff & diamon lashes!
Another great news for the gyarus in Singapore. Samantha Thavasa is coming to our sunny little island this year~ GOD I CAN'T WAIT TO VISIT THEM! The pretty bags, ahhh~ *dreamy look* Now what I need is just for the cosmetic peeps to bring in Jill Stuart. Life will be perfect! [Well, almost.]
It's really late now, I will blog tomorrow. Just wanted to share this [super old news, I keep forgetting to mention it whenever I blog!] Fly to Tokyo from KL at only 99RM! (:
You don't have much time to enjoy this awesome deal!
Offer ends on 3rd October, so hurry up and make up your mind! [I want to go so badly, but don't want to be overly restricted by money constrains. I look at the price of Liz Lisa promo items, I feel like killing myself! SO MAD CHEAP. And all the pretty Serra Melliesh by Kanno Yui... ):]
See, don't say I never share good things with you! and I got my Jill stuart bag exchanged today. Oh, so many things to talk about. Both funny and annoying. Leave it for tomorrow (:
Looking at all the winter clothings and Nordic prints everywhere, they simply make me feel soooooooo happy! That's why I absolutely LOVE WINTER. I already can't wait for winter to be over so the clothes will go on sale. HEH.
Hello! Got a tiny haul of make-up again! Grabbed this from ALT yesterday at Heeren level 3 because my friend was working~ 10% off from her ^^
It's just this~
Went over to malaysia today with qilu & valerie again. However, we only stayed about 2 hours? Ahahah, nothing to do there besides buying stuff =/ Oh, we had KFC there! I swear their 2 piece chicky is like... the fullest meal I ever had from KFC! The generous size of the chick, no joke!
Look at how cute the bun for Zinger burger is~
The potato wedges are LOVE! Singapore OUGHT TO HAVE THIS.
After lunch, I had a couple serving of yogurt ice cream! (me and my obsession with ice cream these days is really no joke!)
^ P.S.: Liwen, it's exactly the same as the one we shared the other day, just that I am eating this alone this time xD Their ice cream serving seemed more generous too!
Taking about food, let me back track a little. Went out with Liwen yesterday again to shop shop for make-up. We ended up buying little because we couldn't decide~
We had Marche for dinner instead of the planned Ding Tai Fung because by the time we left ALT, it was pass 9.30pm! [& I know 313 DTF's last order is 9.30pm]
Hers:
What else were you expecting from me?
Forgot to take a picture of Liwen's 2way cake from dodo. It's super soft! Maybe when I get the chance~
Oh yes, my Jill Stuart bag actually has a zip problem. So angry! I went to Kinokuniya at Orchard Ngee Ann City in the evening to enquire if exchange is allowed for emook. To my delight, they allow it! I am gonna meet BFF tomorrow and head down to Liang court to change it! *happy* Talking about emook, the fred perry one was nowhere in sight at Orchard kino. I wonder if Liang court still has it... I want the bag! Saw a girl carrying it today, quite pretty~ Oh yes, about the Jill Stuart catalogue, They are restocked by Kinokuniya already! (: So ladies, go grab your copy! [There was a huge pile when I went to Kino earlier, so I don't think you needa rush down to get it. Makes me feel like killing myself for buying mine without the member's discount because the card wasn't with me... ARGH!)
And a mini haul? [not really...] Ta da!
These are... not mine xD I bought them for Liwen!
Mine are only these~
Yep, I got both of us the same blusher!
I didn't intend to get anything besides blusher, but Valerie tempted me into getting the face powder. I don't even need to be convinced to splurge, sigh. I'm such a make-up/ clothes junkie. I actually prefered the Kate's face powder because it felt alot softer, but I thought why not give ZA a try? If it's not good, I can always get the Kate one again. Will let you guys know.
Just some information since I got people asking me. Pressed powder and Face Powder are basically the same thing if I am not mistaken. It is the compact [therefore "pressed"] form of loose powder. These are great for touching up!
For powder/cake foundations, there are 2 way cake and foundation available. 2 way cake can be applied on your face with a dry or wet sponge while the latter can't. I guess that is why more people get 2 way cake nowadays.
Personally, I use loose powder to "matte" my look after liquid foundation/ bb cream. If I use 2 way cake, I will use either one, depending my my mood xD So there you have it! Anymore questions, you can always drop a comment at the bottom of each entry, beside the time of post there is a "com" link. Click on it and leave your comments. They are moderated as I get alot of junk spams for comment, so I had no choice but to moderate them. MIND YOU IT'S ALOT OF WORK TO MODERATE! If I can, I wouldn't!
Oh yes, about the MAC concealer I got. I am absolutely furious about it! The lady told me to get a tone darker for blemish concealing. I don't know if you remember, but she took the C30 for me as my tone. It was obviously TOO DARK, so I toned down one level and got C25. IT IS STILL TOO DAMN DARK. I can't blend it out properly. I should have followed my own judgement and gotten C20 instead. (Because that's the lightest shade available, or at least the lightest I saw. I know there should be C15 too, but they don't seem to have it?) I swear I will get C or NC 20 next time when I replenish. Now, I will just have to find a way to clear this off. ARGH. When I pair it with liquid foundation/ bb cream, it is not that bad. But when I try with powder, it's a TOTAL GONE CASE. I LOOK PATCHY.
SIGH.
Absolutely annoyed and furious. Not to mention, the Staff attitude at MAC NAC was bad. Or rather, from what I observed, MAC sales assistant always have this snobbish attitude, which deters me from entering everytime. I think they seriously need to do something about their staff. Argh, the more I think about it, the more annoyed I get!
Random shot
& I realised I have not done any eyelash review in awhile. Shall do one for eyemazing tomorrow. Meeting my BFF tomorrow, yay! I miss my BFF (: I will probably be getting the Ipod Touch 4th Generation tomorrow at Funan. You guys will know the outcome tomorrow when I'm home~
That's all for today darlings! I hope you had a great weekend too~ Oh yes, here are the samples I want to give away... Aqualabel, Missha and MAC stuff.
I GOT IT! I told my brother to get it for me~ The were displayed at Kinokuniya Orchard at 7.10PM. By 7.20PM, they were all sold out!
I was in a "OMG FML" state when my brother texted me the horrible news! I gobbled up my dinner and rushed down to Liang Court right away! Liang court displayed at 7.30pm. I left house around 7.50pm to head down! I didn't check the Bugis outlet because I expect them to be the 2nd store that people flock to get it. I arrived Liang Court around 8.20pm~ When I got to Kinokuniya there, There were only 5 copies! From what I know, each of the 3 outlets only brought in 20-ish copies of the Jill Stuart Catalogue [世界中が WE LOVE JILL] Some cheap shots!
WHEE (:
The Cover~
Comes with a pretty price tag too~
See how much they jacked the price? *Grumbles*
A peak of the awesome contents! All the make up used were SO PRETTY and I was so inspired! The cosmetics are so pretty!
I tried a Autumn x Winter eye makeup on my own after seeing them~
& here's what everyone has been waiting for...
Tada! [kekekeke]
Okay, really TADA!
OH SO PRETTY RIGHT!
I love I love I love!
So glad that I rushed down to grab it! Two zippers
The back has 1 compartment too (:
It's ALOT MORE ROOMY than I thought!
I've actually used it already and gosh, it's really pretty and awesome! After putting my million and one make up stash inside, I can still put my phone, cards and money inside the back compartment! It's so princessy~ (I never knew I could do with such a small bag too!)
& When I said Ben & Jerrys after every dinner, I wasn't kidding!
My Diamond lashes have arrived! So I pulled everything out to pack~
Can't wait for the next pre-order! Then I can complete my diamond lash collection and Serra Melliesh!
But that will mean a big hole in my wallet (again!) I will be getting the Kate face powder in natural shade later. Probably getting it with Liwen. Or maybe getting for her while I go ALT alone. )= & Ipod touch 4 too... I wanna get it T.T How how how! Broke to the max please.
Oh and I have some samples to giveaway! We all love freebies. I accumulated some samples from sellers because of my generous purchases. some are just free from talks/ events/ competitions. so I will post the pictures up later. Gotta head down bank and school later.
though I did not get great news at the start of the day, I ended it with a superbly awesome note! Went to town with Karmun & Liwen after work! I wanted to use my MAC $35 voucher. Eye-d on the concealer which was priced at $28 or something, thus had some balance left. Didn't want to waste the balance, so I told Li wen to come along and grab a concealer too, where she can offset $7 from my balance. If she didn't come along, I will probably end up getting another product. Heh.
Anyhow, before we headed down to MAC at NAC, we had some indonesian food at lucky plaza at Liwen's recommendation! It's pretty nice!
Our soursop~
Liwen's promfret!
Karmun & I got chicken (Yes, me and my chicken obsession got to stop)
After food, went down to MAC to grab the concealer! I got this!
The girl told me to get a tone darker than my skin since I want to use to cover blemish. If I got a lighter tone, it will emphasize my blemish instead.
^ so I guess I should be a C or NC20 for foundation?
Liwen got another type. Forgot to take a shot T.T Maybe I will let you guys know tomorrow.
After this, went to the mooncake festival fair at NAC! I went ZOMG when I saw that イチゴ大福 was for sale! BOUGHT IT!
Got 2 of the イチゴ大福, and 4 はなもち (チエリ、リンゴ、西瓜、 forgot what's this >.<)
Tried the リンゴ one~ Just red bean paste inside.
& the イチゴ大福!
After this, we rushed to Watsons to find brush for liwen. In the end, I tempted her into buying Kate face powder in natural shade. Remember I bought it in glow shade last wednesday? ahahah. I am gonna buy the Natural shade too, just not yet. Shall get it next week (: New obsession with Kate make up is crazy!
Karmun went to New look and Uniqlo while liwen & I hung around watsons for super long. After that, we parted (:
I was totally looking forward to reaching home! That's because I received a call from the courier around 7.10pm to say that they will be reaching my house with the Essential hamper in another 5-10 minutes~ The whole time after that, I was so excited about seeing it!
When I got home and saw the package, I was stunned! I thought they will be giving sample size products. But NO! They gave TEN FULL SIZE PRODUCTS.
Yes, I repeat.
TEN FULL SIZE PRODUCTS.
I LOVE YOU THESAMPLESTORE & ESSENTIALS. Special thanks to Li Juan for all the crazy amount of effort and always emailing me about such good events to take part in! Thanks Lijuan & team at TSS!
So here are some sneak peak. Share some of my excitement will ya?
2nd time receiving such a huge suprise from TSS! First time were all my awesome mentholatum lipbalms! (Which I am still using! Still on my first 2 sticks!)
obviously i blurred out what I needed to.
Opened up to see this! Yes, that's the NEW HAIR ESSENCE! (Rich Premier & Nuance Airy)
Treatment (Nuance Airy & Rich Premier)
Nuance Airy Shampoo & Conditioner!
Rich Premier Shampoo & Conditioner!
& my loved hair mask! [I've used both before, prior to getting these!]
I lost the picture of my rich premier that I had about 2 or 3 months back. But here's evidence I really am using them before I even received these!
Just felt like I had to do that, in case people think that I will be very biased in my product write up. I only endorse for what I believe in. Things that I don't believe in, I don't even bother to look at them.
Look at the 10 awesome products they sponsored me!
Rich Premier Series:
Nuance Airy Series:
Sorry for the cheap shots. You will get much better shots when I do a proper entry on them. Will get the entry up after I've tried the products, so don't expect me to write it up within the next day or two.
What made me really happy about receiving these was that I had wanted to try them long long ago! But because my mimi always bought shampoo on her own without bringing me along to choose what I want and the fact that my bathroom don't have the space to keep more stuff, I didn't buy them on my own. When I told liwen I am sponsored for these, She told me how good the products are and I got so hyped up about trying it right after I got home!
& I did! I just bathed with the Nuance Airy full series! I can already feel the awesomeness. It's getting late, I shall talk about this more in awhile. Let me go catch some sleep first okay? ^^
I finally had the chance to sit down and eat it. & remembered that I promised shots! Seriously, taste like ice cream! Wish that I bought more back then T.T
& I am one of the lucky 100 bloggers to be selected for the essentials hair products! I will be getter a hamper of their products~ Will let you guys know the updates! I love essentials hair product~ So far I've only tried the hair mask. Let's see what they can do to save my hair! You guys know how bad my hair became after I bleached it again using the Palty bleach yea... ):
Feeling feverish yet again. shall go snuggle with my almond nuts and a large cup of home made ice milo. lovessss (:
Should I head down to town with karmun tomorrow~~ Let's see my mood tomorrow morning?
&btw, my clothes are still on my chair. I really can't squeeze them in......
