Diamond Lash DL55104 ラブリー Eye [Lovely Eye]

Hello!
been quite some time, yes? (laughs)
More lashes that I ordered are coming soon, probably within 2 weeks.
So I thought I should try and clear some reviews xD


^ Upper Lash - Diamond Lash DL55101 ゴージャス Eye [Gorgeous Eye]
^ Lower Lash - Diamond Lash DL55104 ラブリー Eye [Lovely Eye]

Left Eye


Right Eye


Side view


Closed Eye top view


Visual Easy Rating for Diamond Lash - Lovely Eye*:


 Volume (7/10) - I really love this pair! Kinda looks like the Eyemazing lower
lash, which I love too! (laughs) Volume for lower lash usually ain't crazy, or
at least I don't make it too crazy looking (if you realise I don't like to stack
lashes, be it upper or lower lash)

 Length (lash strands) [8.5/10] - Pretty long ^^ but then again, just like
my other lower lash (laughs)

 Length (lash band) [8/10] - Just right for the enlarging effect, but there is
still room to be longer (for those with bigger eyes~ since my eyes are tiny)

 Ease of Application [8/10] - As usual like other diamond lashes ^^

 Comfort [8/10] - Wear it properly and there will be no problem. Did not
cause any discomfort at all.

 Reusability [8.5/10] - Definitely with proper care. However I get very
paranoid about pulling the strands off the band these days because that seem
to happen more frequent now... (I think because I am getting lazier to clean
my lashes after use T.T)

 Price [8.5/10] - Too cheap to be real! (But yes, it's real and awesome quality)

Overrall Rating: 8/10

*hardly any eye makeup left, but when using them I will recommend less
intense makeup around your face as the lashes really helps the eyes to
scream for attention and thus you don't want to go too heavy on other parts
of your face or you end up too loud.*

lallala, that's all!
Back to playing Causality!
I just realised they released so many special editions!
(Yes, I'm bored at work, laughs)

xoxo

Suprise x Arrival of bags!

Hello!
Incredibly happy yesterday~
Awesome bro drove me over to sy darling's house to collect my bags
after his work!
xoxo to my bro! (笑)
Here are the bags:


Before I show you how they look like,
I received a suprise parcel when I got home yesterday too!


Hmm, wondering what it is~


An environmental bag?


Smart people who saw something at the bottom right, it's from LilyLolo!


OrganicInc sent me some love! LilyLolo is from UK and it is a mineral blush
free of talc, parabens, etc!
(parabens are cancer causing too~)


I tried on the blush today, love how shimmery it is!
The colour was able to last through the day out [I was out for about 4 hours]
I will use it again on my NYE party and see how it works out!
Colour in Candy Girl
[with flash]


[without flash]


The colour is true to the picture with flash.
Just so pretty!
I just have to pick up a little bit with my brush and it goes a long way!
First experience with mineral makeup, not bad at all!

And I tried using the MUFE primer in shade #2 yesterday!
Gosh, it is AWESOME!
It made my face so smooth and did brighten my skin!
I had such an awesome canvas to work with after using the primer!
Two thumbs up!
Loving it like crazy, smashbox here I come!

Also tried my UDPP, awesome too!
My shadow last all day without fading!
I should have gotten Urban Decay Primer Potion long ago!
My love for eye makeup, why did I wait till now?
(笑)
I am so so SO satisfied with my buys!
I shall do rainbow eyes again with primer on this time and show you guys!

Okay anyway, here are my bags!


MAD LOVE THEM!
The quality is really AWESOME.
Seeing them made me want to order more right away!
(but obviously I can't since my bank account is kinda empty right nao after
paying off my buttock of debt)
So I shall hold myself back.... (grumbles)
I have endless amount of things to buy, i know I know!
close up!


When I saw the lock and the toy looking key, I thought they were for show.
No, it actually works!


Tada~


Mad love it please. 2 ways to carry it!


xoxo!


Another one!


This is SO ViVi-ish! Love love love love love it!
Sling it~


Or hold it!


Mad love!


Pretty small~


& this is the Gossip Girl bag!


Again, I can sling it~


Or hold it ^^


Closeup~


^^


Pretty decent size for school, yes?


Last but not least [I was really very hesitant to buy this actually...]


Yes, it's pink, which is why I was hesitant.
I never bought a pink bag before because they are so hard to match!
But this is mad love!


The little purse~


Pretty on the inside too~


omg love love love it!


I'm so mad happy with all the bags!
(goes back to website to drool)

): I need another job, anyone want to intro me one?
I need more money to support my spendings.
Seriously, I'm pretty scary!

AND!
Jun Komori launched new lashes too!
As well as cosmetic line (4 blush, 3 gloss if I'm not wrong, as well as gel liner)
Cosmetic line is called, well, Cosmeline (笑)
Well, just like how I am not exactly interested in candy doll or serra melliesh
blush & gloss, they are not really catching my attention.
(I tend to lean towards western brands in blush, shadows, gloss.)
So you got it.
What really caught my attention was... the lashes!!
There are 4 new lashes! (palms face* Where am I gonna get the money!)
In models 000, 004, 005 and 006!

000


004


005


006



they are all upper lashes!
I only see the website listing 004, 005 and 006 though.
Wonder why they did not list 000~

& Besides these, they have another series of eyemazing by てんちむ~


Only 702 is out for now, 701 and 703 will be out in 2011 January!
But from what I can see, 702 kinda look exactly like Jun's 003.


Here are the other 2, 701 and 703, which will be out in January next year!


What do you think? I kinda like 703 alot~
But this is not a priority because I don't know this model ^^;;

I needa save for 2 months to get liz lisa eyes, jewerich and the new eyemazing lashes!
These will cost me another $250 at least~
I know Jewerich doesn't exactly have the best reviews but I found a place
that sells them at a pretty decent price~ So why not?
Jewerich have 5 pairs of lashes right now, #4 & 5 are new, #5 is produced
by Hoshino Kana ^^
I know I said I won't be getting Liz Lisa eyes but the place I found sell them
at a really low price so~ (笑)
Just ordered 13 boxes of diamond lash and here I am thinking about getting
more (another 12 boxes to be exact).

Kill me, someone (笑)

[Sponsored] The monthly torture
I'm sure you know what am I going to talk about in abit.








No?








Well you see.....









Every month, there will be these few days in this certain week (and for alot of
woman, these few days are the same few days every month) whereby we turn
evil.












Yes, that's how you know we are having our menstration.
It's not our fault, really!
Hormones are to blame (laughs)







But fortunately, I don't have such problem with menstration.
I am one of those lucky girls who don't get crazy hormone problems, resulting
in me being emotionally unstable (i.e. evil temper) or those menstration
cramps (I really don't understand how other woman can be in so much pain
till they cry or faint.... sorry!) so yea, you girls can box me now. (laughs)



But despite me being one of those lucky ones, it is still a pain in my ass.
The feeling of having to see the mess when we go to the ladies turns every
one off.
Despite the constant improvements made to let us feel better while wearing
the sanitary pads, they are still in the same 2 colours; blue and white.
What they always focus on is the absorbance, thickness, texture, comfort
of the sanitary pad, yes?
Well, they always leave out the visuals.
Did they forget that we (at least for me) buy things irrationally?!
As long as they look good, we are sold!
I mean, why do you think girls pay so much for cute looking things (including
intimates) that no one but ourselves can see?!

VISUAL IS IMPORTANT!



And thankfully, Kotex realised that!
Introducing Kotex Luxe Sanitary Pads!




Truth is, I was really skeptical about it before I saw it.
I mean, how pretty can a pad look?
And even if they look pretty, so what?
I didn't have a very good first impression of Kotex so I have to admit that I
thought this is just another tactic to make up for their incompetent product.
Pretty is one thing, but the other factors when we use them is very very VERY
important.
Coincidentally, I was having my period when these arrived so I thought,
"Ahh well, since I will be blogging about it, I ought to use them and see how it
goes."


I was really really impressed!
Kotex has really improved over the years.
The first time I tried it was in Secondary Two (I remember I took it from Michelle!)
I really didn't like how it felt on me.
But last week when I gave Kotex another shot, it was really impressive.
I can't believe it is indeed the same brand I tried years ago!
Kudos to Kotex for improving heeeeeeeepppps over these years!

Okay back to topic (actually I was on topic, right?)
So they actually launched these design pads some time ago but not alot of
people are aware even until now.
I admit that I wasn't aware of it too until Lijuan from TheSamplestore mailed
me about it.
They come in 3 different dimensions:

32cm with wings


23cm with wings:


2 different (6s 23cm) mini packs with different designs inside (6 designs in total!)




Well, seeing the prints on the packaging is not quite accurate, right?
We know how things work with prints.
Kotex very smartly sent this Presenter book along:


I can't agree more with this statement.


Behold.


*squeals* Look at the details!


It's ultra soft!


So pretty right!


How the 32 cm look like, with the blue zone (supposingly where it* is to
concentrate)


How it looks like from my camera:


Equally soft and thin!


All the types (packaging/ pieces) that are available:


Saw that big address on the presenter book?
Yes, there is a contest going on now on their facebook!
You can stand to win a brand new Ipad and shopping vouchers!

Visit their facebook page HERE,
Click on the "Create your WOW" tab and design away!
Contest is open to Singapore, Malaysia and Phillipines!

Don't think you want to design anything or creative enough?
That's okay too! You can win shopping vouchers by voting too!
I see alot of pretty designs~
Mine is kinda simple~ Here it is:


Do cast your vote for me if you love me xD
Overall it was a great experience for me to give Kotex another shot and I really
love it!

Tiny Haul from Sephora

Hello guys!
Out of total impulse, I hauled these from sephora.
It was like "oh, see on website, feel like getting, got it" kinda thing.
Almost bought two faced shadow insurance as well as primer from smashbox too.
But well, I resisted the urge.
I shall get them end of next month after I get paid from the clinic.
The pay is not even enough to cover them ($68 for smashbox primer, $28 for
two faced shadow insurance = $96)
(笑)
Oh well, cosmetics junkie here.
Before we get to the pictures, here's the vlog for my hauls this past week
and some explanation on primers:


So anyway the babies I got from Sephora today:


Yes! Urban Decay Primer Potion Professional Size


The tube is actually alot bigger than what I expected.
Kinda expecting it to be like Two faced shadow insurance size.


See how big it is, I like how they package it!


love love love love love it!
But a minus point is that the amount of product packed inside is not really
all that much.
I had to squeeze till about 2/3 of the lower part of the tube before getting
any product out.


See what I mean?


Tried it on a little to swatch.



Will update again about the lasting power!


Makeup Forever HD Microperfecting Primer


Shade #2, Violet


Tadaaaaaa.


Kinda deciding between smashbox and this, like which one to try first.
If this works out, I will get another tube of smashbox in lavender.


Can't wait to try it out!


& 2 last shots with my primer potion!


I love my nails!


that's all for today!

xoxo

Another day, Another Mall

Hello people!
I finally got to visit nex ^^

Okay, it's basically the newest (and very hyped) mall at Serangoon.
Went there on christmas eve with my 2 favourite darlings.
Explored the place, was kinda "uhhh" about it.
I guess hype always brings disappointment eh.
It would have been better if I had no anticipation and be wow-ed.
Pretty big and crowded.
I think I will probably visit it again when the hype dies down and lesser traffic
(human, in this case.)

Our plan for Bakerzin (and to take away hun's virgin macaroon adventure) was
exchanged for her virgin visit to......

Make a guess?


Uh huh, it's Ding Tai Fung.


The food we ordered were all really snack stuff.
But together, they were pretty darn fulling.
Took quite some time to come despite there being not much of a crowd.
A minus point for the service (Staff pretty much avoid eye contact and 1 even
pretended not to see!)


Waiting for our orders to arrive~
I forgot my blush because I was in such a hurry to leave (running very late!)


Wait for nom nom.


Some sipping here and there.


And still waiting....


Finally, small dragon buns are here!

^ one leaking bun! But we were compensated with another.

Fresh Pork Buns


Chilli Crab Buns


Can't remember what's this. Red bean... something.


Oh, I forgot to take picture of our Yam buns.
T.T

Anyway, that's pretty much what I have to say about xmas eve.
Don't even want to talk about what happens after our dinner.
Pretty darn annoyed even till now.
*grouchy expression*

Well, the only happy thing that night I did was probably my nails.
Painted them myself so it's not exactly the best thing... It was all free hand.


Both are from OPI, Black is Baby it's Coal Outside
& Purple is Purple with a Purpose.

Was kinda playing around and trying out several colours, these 2 colours
caught my eye and for some reason I felt like doing a mix of them.
Wanted to fuse some gold in there too, but being a total amateur when it
comes with nail polish, I decided to just forget it.
Even simple lines like above I had problems to draw with my shaky hands,
what more to speak about other designs?
But I like the whole Electroglam vibe it exludes.
(笑)

I really like Baby it's Coal Outside! But I don't see it in the list of OPI polishes
under transdesign web! (huge huge HUGE bummer)
It's just so shimmery!


So anyway, just wanted to do a quick update since I can't sleep.
I know, it's like amost 7am.
What's wrong with me right? (笑)
Oh yes, got these chocolates.
Pardon the cover with our national lion-maid (sans MER of mermaid)
Okay, it's actually called Merlion. (major brain fart moment, pardon me.)


These are actually Singapore Sling chocolates!


Well, skeptical at the first look... I was like "mmm uhh.." about the taste of
SG Sling. Nonetheless I tried it.


Kinda much like the thing.
If you don't like Gin or Cherry, skip this altogether.

That's about all I wanna say.
And you can expect some girl-only stuff in my next update.

Hint:


Uh huh.

Recent crazy hauls

Hello!
I actually made a video but windows movie maker keep crashing.
So I'm giving up.

I havent been hauling for quite some time!
Pretty proud of myself until recently.
Once you start, you can't stop again.
T.T
I need to stop again~
Ordered my 12 boxes of diamond lashes, the light pink and blue trays.
As well as the 1 more box of hot pink tray since I have all the lashes from the
other 3 sets, might as well complete it right? Hahaha.
Yes, that's 13 boxes.
Can't wait for them to arrive and blog + vlog about it man! (excited!)

Oh yes, my EOS lens finally arrived last week.
Sadly, my purple lens was OOS...
Sigh, was most excited about finally getting purple lens.


Nope, only 2 pairs are mine, others I got them for colleagues hahaha.
(if only they were all mine)
Green!


I wore it last sunday, love love love love it!


Oh and I did rainbow eyes too!


It's so pretty!

^ love love love love love doing this. Alot of fun to put on and wear it!

And if you are wondering what colour I am gonna dye my hair next, I have
decided to just touch up my roots!
Yes, my hair is already in a terrible state (I finally realised it), so no more
dye. Just touch ups!

^ Yui for a change, I've been using tsubasa cover girl colours the last 2 times!
I love love love love love yui! I think she's the most "natural" beauty girl.
See how normal her double lids are.

Got this, it's black film for a change. So cool!


And guess who finished her white up night cream?



^ Totally panicked when I wasn't able to buy it.
Luckily my bro helped me buy it at town.

^ This is a totally underrated item.
It keeps my face supple, I love how my skin looks when I wake up!
So soft and moisturised!

Everyone should get this!


 I came home to find these!

^ So pretty! Ferrero should come out with cool stuff like this more often.

And , I went town shopping for some stuff with qilulu, as well as pay
my loan.
Totally broke after clearing half of my big butt of debt, but a heavy load off my
chest.
Quite happy that by feb I will definitely be debt free (:
I'm quite proud of myself
Took qilulu to have macaroons.
She's so funny, had this "I can die without regrets now" look after she tried
macaroons for the first time.

Oh had pepper lunch for, well, lunch.
Sad to say my blocked nose is still causing food all over to be tasteless.
And brought her to try gong cha too (Like food exploration for her today eh)

Oh yes, like I said once I haul I can't stop.
The other time I went town with Qiuhui to see the elicina cream, I got it
today!


Tadaaaaaaaaa.


The snail cream~


Cost $50~ (It's actually $49.xx, can't remember)


I hope it really works!


Said to be useful for scars, pigmentation, stretch marks, blah blah.


Saw pretty good reviews, but when I opened it, there was only 4/5 tub.
):


Got this in town with qilulu too!
we have been procrastinating since FOREVER (with hun too!)
So hun, go get yours. We got ours already.


It's from Heroine! The brand with awesome mascara anyone?


But we kinda don't like how old school the powder cover is.


This is the softest powder I've EVER swatched.


No I'm not kidding. Why do you think we always have to touch touch it when
we go watsons?


Oh yes, pink contacts today!
Not obvious at all T.T


And I came home to another suprise today!


Yes, the very delicious pastry from Crabtree & Evelyn!


Omg, mad  The cookies inside (the container too!)
Okay so that's all I have to say.
It's 3am and I gotta wake at 6.30am later.
I'm officially screwed.
It's christmas eve tomorrow,
I will have an awesome day!


Ahh, so excited about my hauls to come!
And waiting for my mac brush too!
Bought the Mac adoring carmine face brush set!
It's actually from Mac 2008 xmas launch.
Mad pretty please.
Ahhh, so excited that I can't sleep~
Okay, it will still take 2 - 3 weeks, I should put my usagi energy off somewhere
else.
Make up really makes me happy!
Shall show you guys my pretty nails after I paint them tomorrow too!
Getting the truckload of OPI from my brother's gf tomorrow!

Have a wonderful Christmas Eve tomorrow everyone!

[Sponsored] Dress Me Mask Review

Hmm, dress me?

Wearing beautiful clothes is one factor that contributes to overall outlook, but
we all agree that face plays a huge role too, yes?

If I were to rate dressing/ dress sense VS face/ looks, it will be a 50:50 importance!
These are extremely important in making the very very first impression.
Afterall, when people SEE you, the real first impression actually lies visually
before it extends out to attitude and everything else.

Skincare is very essential for us, be it guys or girls.
Well, guys might think it's too girly to care about that, but GIRLS!
If you are still not doing anything for your skin, your skin will age as you age,
even faster than that!
That's why we get people looking older than they really are.

If you observe closely, many girls these days don't look their age.
We always exclaim how much younger they look compared to their real age.
That's because their skincare regime is helping them repair/ nourish their
skin, slowing down the aging of their skin
.
Bear in mind that skin is the largest organ in our body, not just our face!
But well, when people look at us, they dont actually pry about other parts of
our bodies right... (laughs)
Oh, and if they tell you they don't do any skincare, they are lying.
Some girls just want to dupe you into believing they have naturally flawless
skin (and trust me, that's impossible, at least not without help.)

So I'm sure I've shared my skincare regime a few times, and the occasional
mask shots of me.
Today I am going to introduce you guys a mask called "Dress Me!"
Yes, dressing your face!

Alright I might not do all these steps everyday but I try my best (I'm a lazy bum!)
I will only show you the skincare regime for night because I only use mask
every now and then at night.
Basically because I have not heard of people doing their facial mask early in
the morning, or in the middle of the day and well, you get what I mean.

So here's my whole skincare regime for the night:

[x. If I use a Peeling Mask like Kose Mask White, I will use a cleanser like
Aqualabel [blue] cleanser or Loreal [Acne Prone] cleanser before using the
mask, followed by those below]



1. Eucerin Dermopurifyer Scrub (once every 2 days; e.g 1, 3, 5, 7)


2. Ginvera Green Tea Marvel Gel (once every 2 days; e.g 2, 4, 6)


3. Eucerin Dermopurifyer Cleanser


4. Ginvera Jade Eye Roll


5. Hada Labo Hyalurauric Acid Lotion


6. Aqua Label Whitening Range [Blue] - (S) Lotion


[x. If using Moisturizing/ Nourishing Mask, I use it at this step!]


7. Aqua Label Whitening Range [Blue] - Bright White EX

8. Aqua Label Whitening Range [Blue] - (S) Moisturizer


9. Aqua Label Whitening Range [Blue] - Enhancer


10. Aqua Label Whitening Range [Blue] - White Up Cream [Night Cream]

So when I am using a moisturizing/ nourishing mask, I will use it before the
Serum!
Mask is very important as it acts as a "super charge" to our face!
Apart from the daily routine, we have to use mask once a in a few days
(or if you are lazy, maybe once a week) to power charge our face, be it
moisturizing or brightening or reviving, whatever!

Dress Me & The Sample Store kindly sponsored me these 3 lovely mask:


1. Dress Me Soften & Clarifying Mask


2. Dress Me Oil Control & Purifying Mask


3. Dress Me Whitening & Brightening Mask


They have a total of 7 different types of mask, you can see it HERE

Getting ready to use my first mask from Dress Me~ The Natto one!


[mixture of pictures from using natto & gigawhite, so happens that both nights
I was wearing the same top T.T]

Opening it~


Fresh from the packet~


Tada!


Peeling the plastic off~


Behold~~ ^^



Well, you can use the computer or watch tv while doing this~ [Just dont watch
comedy!]


Or stare at air~


Or the ceiling...



Or maybe just rest for a lil while [don't fall asleep and forget to take the mask
off!


After about 15 ~ 20 minutes, peel it off from bottom to top!
This is to create the lifting effect! If you peel it from top to bottom,  you are
pulling your skin downwards; Hello, sagging motion, not smart!



Now, the residue still remain on your skin right?
Don't waste it!
Pat the residue in a circular motion into your skin! Every drop counts ^^

Notice my mask is on my neck?
While patting in the residue, don't forget the mask is still quite moist and
soaked with the awesome goodness, so I will put it on my neck to "super
charge" my neck~
Neck is an area that many people miss out. My colleague once told me that
neck is the area one should look at to see how old the person really is! So
let's cheat our age as convincingly as we can! (laughs)


Tada~
my skin feels so refreshed!
[Yes, as you blog more, the more you don't care about appearance...]


Continuing with my regime after this~


& When I wake up the next day, my skin still feels very supple and might
brighter!
Never underestimate that 20 minutes of mask on your face.
It can make a difference!
If not immediate, it definitely will when you are doing it as a routine.
Something must get into your skin if we are being so diciplined!

My personal thoughts on these 2 mask?

Natto:

There's this Y-PGA (Polyglutamic Acid) thing that is found in Natto that reduces the appearance of fine lines and improves skin elasticity which impressed me. I never knew Natto have something good in it [I tried eating natto once... not a very good experience.] It says that its function is softening & clarifying, but
dont be fooled! It contains ingredients like Arnica Montana Flower Extract (anti-inflammatory properties, enhances blood circulation while repairing damaged skin, helps to tighten pores, prevent skin sensitivity), Citrus Medica Limonum (helps whitening & brightening the skin) and also Sodium Hyaluronate (binds & retains moisture within skin 500 times more, thus increasesing moisture level in skin &boosts skin’s natural collagen formation)!
I really feel that my pores tightened and skin feels very supple the next
morning! Also, I feel that I look alot more awake the next day, probably
because of the brightening effect! This one doesn't break me out either (:
And I love how I feel after the mask!

GigaWhite:

First line I saw- Gigawhite that reduces age spots and inhibits pigmentation and has skin-barrier functions. Woohoo, totally sold! I am having pigmentation
problems with my acne problems now ): While using it just once did not reveal
any immediate effect, nor I think it will in the near future but I'm hopeful that
prolonged usage might have some changes on my skin over time. Same as the
natto mask, my skin was able to stay supple till the next morning! It also
states that it has anti-inflammatory, anti-allergenic, anti-bacterial and anti-oxidant properties that whitens the skin and also reduces redness
and skin sensitivity. I do realise my skin being brighter the next day too and
again, like the natto mask, my skin did not have any adverse reaction towards

Makeup junkies take note!

Yesh.
I've not done a video of myself talking nonsense for a long time.
Since I'm smartly ahead of time for my reviews,
I have time to blog about something relaxing and non promotional.

But I'm not being paid or sponsored or anything.
I bought from this seller pretty long ago.
I'm doing this purely because I think she's one of the best blogshop I've ever
purchased from. She actually still remembers me!

A little treat to all you lovely people,
I'm sure many of you are interested in my palette, I've receive quite a number
of queries regarding where I got mine and here's my answer!
On top of the low price, you get a 5% discount with the code too!
Jenny has very kindly extended a 5% discount to everyone of you!
Send her order to her together with the following code for a 5% discount
off any purchase!

Code: JKSXMH


My purchase from her was the 180 eyeshadow palette.
I blogged about it when I just got it HERE, but thought that since I have an
awesome camera now, I should do the palette and her more justice.
Please do read my previous entry on it if you need convincing about my
unbiased post ahead.

Together with that purchase, I also added in my other 2 palettes
[120 & 88 warm] to the video.
I'm so tempted to grab the Metal Mania 88 Palette as well as the MAC
stippling brush from Jenny!

Yes, the lovely blogshop owner is called Jenny, if you can recall.
You can head over to her shop HERE for all the products!
If after visiting her blogshop and you are skeptical about the products or not
convinced yet, why not see what I have to say in my vlog here:



Are you more convinced now?
Wait, what?
Almost there?
Well, let me give it one last shot at convincing you!
Okay, many last 15 shots.

So many blogshops selling similar products, why
should you buy from her?

Because she is ridiculously nice (Puts me to shame T.T)

Okay, seriously, here are some very obvious reasons:

1. She is practically oozing with politeness. Just look at the way she answers the enquiries in her box.

2. She replies emails quick. Isn't that what we all LOVE? Have that
doubt clarified so we can quickly put our minds at ease and
purchase the product! I know I have sleepless nights if I can't get
a query answered to a product I set my eyes on!

3. She brings in instocks as requested by her customers. How nice is that; going the extra mile! I saw a customer request for an item
and she very kindly said that she will keep a lookout for the
requested item and bring it in if possible! She even ask you
for a budget for that item you want
!

4. Sale sale SALE! There is some sale going on everytime I visit her blog! I can say there's a sale all year round!

5. Prices are NEGOTIABLE. Yes, you heard me right! But please don't go unreasonable on her!

6. She will offer her opinions if you ask! I once asked her for opinion on which brush does she think I should get and she very
kindly replied me with detailed explanation of which she thinks is
good for my purpose!

7. If what you want is not part of the instock, fret not! She sends in the pre-orders on the 1st of every month and from her great
past record, most of the items reach her within 5 days! [However,
just in case there are hold ups, be prepared to wait up to a
maximum of 2 weeks.]

8. Brushes brushes brushes! She sells many good quality dupe of MAC and Bobbi brown brushes, as well as other brushes of other
brands! They are so totally awesome! And ecotools brushes retail
at $29.90 in stores, she is selling it for only $18.80! (Btw, I'm so
buying the Mac red brush set from her!
)

9. Prices are already inclusive of Postage! Just add $2.50 for registered postage! No vicious "add $3 for bubble wrap, blah blah
blah, $2.50 per item of registered." Regardless of how many
items, just add $2.50 for registered postage!

10. Popular drugstore brand like L'oreal (HIP collection anyone? Pigments, liners, shadows, everything HIP!), Wetnwild, bourjois
Sally Hansen and Maybelline! Products include eyeshadow, nail
polish, lipstick, lip gloss, blush and more!

11. Yes, there are MANY instocks for E.L.F. The brand many of
us have a love hate relationship with!

12. She does worldwide shipping! Just email her! [and trust me, the prices she offer is way better than ebay sellers out there!]

13. I think one of the most important factor that people consider
when buying from someone is their attitude. Personally, attitude
is of paramount importance to me. I can very confidently tell
you that buying/ spreeing with her is definitely no mistake.
She can definitely deliver with great service throughout (:

14. She organises USA spree!
Yes, ANY store! (Forever 21, drugstore, lush, NYX, etc)

15. She brings in makeup. Reasonable prices for quality goods.
Need I say more? SHE BRINGS IN MAKE UP!


I'm sure there's more than just 15 points.
That's just what I can think of at the moment!


Lastly as promised, more shots of my products!

88 Warm Palette

[Sponsored] Bio Essence - Achieve that nudy look [Part 2]

Hello, I'm back to for more!
Remember this?



& how the 8 in 1 multi effect bb cream did a wonderful job to my flaws?




If you haven't, go and read about it over here before you come to this entry!


Well it's time for a new member to be introduced; Bio Platinum BB Cream!


2 steps up from it's 先輩〜 10 in 1!


Ahem, it's platinum okay!


Before I treat myself, I have to remember my trusty orange!
Since it introduced me to the Bio Essence BB Cream range, I shall let it enjoy
the cream first! [No, I am not using it as guinea pig! xD]



Time to spread!


Tada!


^ See how it does not lose out to the 8 in 1 multi effect BB Cream at all?
Miss orange is happier than ever!


Now using it on me~

^ Upon application on my hand, I felt an obvious difference in the viscosity
between the bio platinum bb cream and the 8 in 1 multi effect bb cream. It is
not as runny as the latter, which I liked better.
Now before you jump into conclusion that it is "thick" and all, fret not because
upon application, apart from the nice scent on my face, my face does not feel
heavy or weighed down by the bb cream!
Just the bb cream along was good enough! No use concealer needed!




^ Again, notice the greyish tint?
Not to worry because in less than 30 minutes, the bb cream blended perfectly
into my skin tone just like any other good bb cream does!
I applied it and stayed home for a day [I am sick so I didn't go out~ T.T] to
test the oil control and I'm pleased to say it did not fail me, just like the multi
effect 8 in 1 bb cream (: By evening shower time, my face was still shine free.
[That's about 6 hours!]

So go on and trade your foundation for bb cream!
[It's about time too!]
You will be reducing the time you take to do that make up regime and change
the minutes for more beauty sleep!
[Sleep is so essential for good skin! (which is why I don't have good skin;
because I have insomnia T.T)]

I'm sure you are waiting for me to say this; grab free samples!
This is like the only time I'm useful eh T.T

Try it to believe it!
Love it and get your Bio Essence Bio Platinum BB Cream today!
Available in all leading cosmetic hours, super and hypermarts (Carrefour, giant,
NTUC), BHG, Watsons, Guardian, Robinsons, John Little and OG!


& if you love it, do refer it to your friends and get rewarded!



I will be reviewing their aqua bb cream on a personal basis.

[Sponsored] Bio Essence - Achieve that nudy look! [Part 1]

Hello my lovely readers!
Today, I will be reviewing my favourite type of makeup product.
I was absolutely thrilled to be selected for this review!
Because I believe my love for BB cream is well known xD
I don't really like to use foundation because it is often too thick to my liking
and I get blending issues.
Powder foundation/ 2way cake cause me some problems too [remember my 2
huge zits too T.T]
So at the end of the day, I find myself turning back to BB Cream again!
It's gotta be the best makeup creation ever!

BB Cream originated from Germany, prescribed by Dermatologist for people
who undergone laser skin treatment to sooth their redness and sensitive
skin.

Are bb creams makeup?
Well, it belongs to both makeup and skincare due to its whitening, reducing
wrinkles & fine lines, moisturizing, sun protection properties all while providing
a good coverage for flaws on our skin!


Courtesy of Bio Essence & TheSample Store, I received yet another of their
familiar box.


I was expecting to see the products lying inside but instead...


I found my Dream Getaway enclosed?
How did they know what my dream getaway place is?
I don't believe it!
ミキちゃん kindly brought it over to me.


& キキちゃん busybodily opened it.


and my my, it really is my Dream getaway place; Korea!


マキちゃん brought it over to me~


I'm going to Korea!
Thank you Bio Essence~ Thank you thank you so much!
I wanna bring my mimi with me, and I wanna buy lotsa makeup there and
and-
Woah wait.

^ See below for more details.
*insert my heart breaking sound here*

Bio Essence Super Star Blogger Challenge?


I still do have a chance to go there!


It's 6 days 4 Night trip~
Oh my, I can do so many things there!
Like eating and shopping and eating and shopping and eating and -
Okay, you get the point.
Not to forget sightseeing too, of course.
While I drift into my "if I win the contest and go to Korea I will xxx" thought,
Look at what the sneaky ones are doing!


Nicely packed for me!


キキちゃん: Can I have this?


Hmm? Give it to me.


Upon closer inspection~


Well, okay... I love helping people (or fruits)
Now where are my products... move away sneaky little ones! *sweeps*


Aha!


Generously gave me 3 full size products!


Little monsters aiming for 1 bb cream each.


Now where's the one the orange needed me to help it with...
This!


Look at all the ingredients packed in the bb cream!


One can expect these benefits for your skin with the awesome ingredient lineup!


8 benefits in 1!
Wow, the orange sure knows how to pick!


Packed in pretty purple


Here we go~


Squeeze some of the Bio Multi-Effect BB Cream onto my hand.


& here we go~


Spreading it well~


Wow! Look at the awesome coverage!
Happy orange anyone?


No wonder the cream made it onto a top beauty hong Kong magazine!
It's the editor's pick for being the bb cream with best coverage!



Well, after making it happy, I shall make myself happy; my turn!
Squeezing it onto my hand before applying it onto my face~
The texture of this is slightly more runny compared to the other bb creams I
have used. At first, I thought that being so runny, it might not give a good
coverage, but I was pleasantly suprised with the outcome!


they even teach show you the steps to do in such cute illustrations!
They remembered to include the neck; a place where many girls omit!


See how well it concealed my flaws:
Uneven skin - eliminated!
Pimple - Concealed!
Redness - No more!
Dull skin - Brightened up!




Notice the greyish tint?
Don't worry! The BB Cream will blend into your skin in no time that by the time
I'm done with doing my eyes, I'm ready to party!


The bb cream feels very light on my face, does not make my cake feel cakey,
a light scent upon application [I'm okay with the scent as it is not bad smelling
or anything like that], great oil control [until the club closed, my face was still
shine free] and my skin feels moisturized all the way [not a dry moment!]

I am not the only one that think this way!
Popular blogger/ model Beatrice [for love, bonito] also uses this product!
Look at the difference it made on her!

Her bare skin:


With makeup:


With bb cream:


See how the bb cream gives a brighter skin complexion and a more complete
coverage compared to using makeup?

Here's the best part!
You can purchase this awesome product at just $28(30g)!
Where, you say?
Well, it is available at Watsons, Robinsons, OG, NTUC, Giant, Carrefour, BHG,
John Little, C K Department Store, Guardian and other leading cosmetic houses!
Think about it, 8 benefits in 1 tube, what more can you ask for? It's such a
bargain already!



Whatcha waiting for?
Go for Bio Essence BB Cream today!
Another post for their new Bio Platinum BB Cream will be up soon!

Look out for it and redeem your FREE samples!
Yes, you read it right.
It's 10 in 1 this time!
