Weekend Beauty Cravings

 

This is what being confined in the home does to a beauty addict – it makes me crave for even more makeup… …

Dolly Wink has been featured on so many blogs. It’s a must have just like the NAKED PALETTE by Urban Decay. Strange comparison I know but I really really want both items!

I would buy Dolly Wink Products just for the packaging because it’s so cute. I’ve read reviews on the liquid and pencil eyeliner and I’ve decided that their eye liner is a must have item! The chocolate brown  shade looks lovely! Check out Cosmetic Candy’s review here !

Next up is Dolly Wink oh so talked about lashes. I am game to try them all especially the lower lashes as it isn’t easy to find seamless & easy to apply ones! Apparently, I was reading that they cost more than MAC falsies thus my expectations are pretty high for this line by KOJI.

My eye bags are big and black and SANA concealers are good and affordable and it dose not irritate the skin around my eyes! Time to hide and zap away all evidence of late night feeds!

Urban Decay 24/7 Glide on Eye Pencil ! I want Zero ( BLACK ) Apparently, these stay on super long! I really want to other colors too ~ they look FUN!

 

Lastly, I would love to try on Canmake’s Perfect Brown Eyes & Melty Nude lip. The eyeshadow swatches really well and I love the lipstick colors!

 

Do you have your eye on any beauty products?? I would love to know and maybe I can add them to my ever growing list!

Soft Bronzy EOTD

 

Hihi!! I did this really quick bronzy look and it actually looks better in person than on camera. I think it’s high time to retire my canon but I’ll have to wait until my confinement ends before I go hunting for a new camera.  Sorry about the colour turnout for the mean time. I’m loving all these neutral shades right now and surprisingly, I’m using a super cheap black kohl eyeliner from Sasa and it works beautiful for smudgy eyes :)

Items Used: Sasa Black Eyeliner,  Fairy Drops Mascara, Castledew Eye Mousse, Bourjois Eyeshadow ( Brown shade) , Koji Eyelash Curler, Loreal Super Liner

             * I SO SO WANT *               

• URBAN DECAY NAKED PALETTE

 

The shades are simply delicious and this is a beautiful palette that I must get my hands on. I’ve watched way too many vids and read too many reviews on this palette. YEs, I know it’s super lovely and I want it too!!!

• SUGARPILL COLD HEART 4 COLOR PALETTE

Gorgeous Packaging, pigmented & oh so vibrant shades. I can’t wait to try these pressed and some pigments from this company. Check out a good review on this palette here:

• ROYCE CHOCOLATE

I just want some awesome soft melty chocolate. I still have a long time to go before I get to taste these babies. Arghh!!!! \

Okie, 4 more days to the weekend sweeties! Eat some yummy chocolates for me in the meanwhile :-)

CL 2NE1 & Pink Eye!

 

CL from 2NE1 is my favourite !!

She’s stylish, cute and looks totally great.

She doesn’t have that mainstream pretty girl look but she can look  cute, sexy, tomboyish or ultra modern ….She’s truly versatile and a born performer!

She carries off bold, fun lip colors and her eyes are always carefully lined to accentuate her pretty beady eyes. She looks so cool with that fringe of hers and I adore how she carries off the largest eye wear !

She sings amazing too!

 

This is my First take on CL’s Makeup LOOK: -

Just plain old black cream eyeliner with urban decay’s matte black to set and heavily coated bottom lashes!

 

 

2nd Take :-

Subtly winged out purplish-blue eyeliner:

 

hehe.. CL has really small eyes and I was trying pretty hard to make my eyes look smaller than it already is.. I still can’t get it squinty small though! As for the nude lip, I’m still trying to find the right mix of products and proper techniques to make it look totally nudey! ( I’ve been seeing alot of reviews for MAC’s SNOB~ looks fab!) I want a lipstick that looks like CL’s in the second picture!!

PINK EYE!

Zoe sweetie, here’s the pink EOTD u requested for some time ago! I had fun with this look, hope u like it.

 

  

 

I’m still working on the final part of my Japan Trip, mainly with Mr ELMO , some Jap Mags  and Japanese inspired hair dos !

Have a great weekend girls!

To all Muslims friends,  SELAMAT HARI RAYA in a few days time :) A time to celebrate !!

JAPAN SKINCARE & COSMETICS & RANDOM HAUL PART 2

JAPAN ‘09 HAUL!

The Frivolous

The Hair

I got these rollers instead of the strawberry ones… cause it looked so pink and besides I can get the strawberry ones in S’pore. I love these rollers, super easy to use, cute pink color and very comfy on the head!!

Oh and that’s a blue comb for my dry and frizzy hair :P It doesn’t really work that well :(

I am obsessed with bows, ribbons and cool looking hair bands. OMG… My mom, sis and I discovered so much wonderful stuff and too many ultra cool and super cute shops at HARAJUKU!

When I look back on my trip, I think I enjoyed shopping immensely at  Harajuku, Daikanyama and Nakameguro!

The EYES

Blair’s Sweets Sweets Palette, Sana concealor, Urban Decay (…etc etc…

 

 

I LOVE U ELMO. U are my perfect model:)

I’m actually a big fan of CAREBEARS and ELMO cause they remind me of my childhood and I used to watch carebear every single day. I resemble grumpy bear in the mornings… muahahah! 

Sana concealor( Light Beige)  takes some getting used to. I experienced no nasty reactions whatsoever and it was really smooth upon application. Only thing is that u have to apply it really really fast or it looks patchy when it dries. It has a very smooth , almost base like finish and I wasn’t used to how it felt. However, I like the coverage, it’s natural looking.

 

Thanks to Dee for getting me addicted to these Lavshuca palettes! They look so pretty and the color payoff is so sweet !! I’ll do some looks with these palettes too! I got GN1(for Dee!), BR2 and PU2.

 

I saw Urban Decay in THE LOFT but I didn’t see the book of shadows!! Since I am always on the look out for an excellent Black Eyeshadow, I just had to get this matte black color from urban decay. I forgot the name.  Isn’t the packaging cool?!

I grabbed their eyebrow pencil(Brilliant Blonde) which came with a wax sealant on one end. It’s a little too light for me but the eyebrow pencil applies really smoothly. The wax portion isn’t something for everyday use, maybe only during sweaty events. Be careful with this wax sealant, once it’s on , it’s on… …

   

Bottom False Eyelashes. These are a perfect length for my eyes and have an invisible band! yippie!

The GLASSES

I’m gunning for Ray Bans Glasses when I’ve saved enough . Meanwhile, I found these at UENO and loved them to bits! My mommy has one too, in black. Only thing I don’t like about this is that the lenses suck, so I’ve got to change them!

THE LIPS

Got a candy doll lip eraser and NYX Black Label Lipstick in Nude. I like the color so much but it  looks so awful with my dry lips. I guess I really have to exfoliate my lips, apply lip balm, lip eraser and than this nude lipstick can sit nicely …

   

Pardon the color of this picture, the lighting in my room is currently : BLUE. Yup, my hubby fixed a blue light while I was in Japan. He says it will turn white.  hmm…  Oh , it was his birthday just a few days ago , so HAPPY BIRTHDAY ONCE AGAIN BABY, I know u read my blog too! hehe

THE SKIN

Hehe… I went crazy for DHC but I had to control myself. My sister was on the verge of killing me cause all I did was “OOhh” and “AAAhhh” at all the drugstores…. I’m sorry.. A makeup and skincare addict will always be a pain in the ass in JAPAN!

Bought this SANA Face Soap. I really like this range so I thought I would try this. Haven’t seen this in Watson or maybe I’m just blind. I do intend to try SANA  UV base in future too!

Yea,  I think alot of people have given rave reviews for DHC ACEROLA LOTION. Should be really good. Thinking of giving this to my brother to use. Yes, I have a handsome, single, younger brother:P

  I had to get myself a Vitacreme B12! ENA has done an awesome review on this…

I am dedicated to finding a cheaper , higher quality Sunblock, cause Dr Secrets is kinda expensive for such a small bottle! I’ll be testing DHC and Ettusais as u can see !

 

I love my SANA OIL CLEANSER, but this bottle was pretty cheap and I liked the color of it! hahaha… I will update on HIPITCH Deep Cleansing ( A VERY SILLY NAME for an oil remover!)

 

PICTURES in Matsumoto Kiyoshi

If this chain ever comes to Singapore, I will give all my credit  cards to my hubby for safe keeping… serious  ><

Cosmetics Galore

Japanese Lippies!!! YUMMY!

 

My Favourite LIQUID Eyeliner Brand: EXCEL!

 

COFFRET D’OR & Shiseido Maquillage

Saw MAX FACTOR there… but didn’t buy anything… Although I did like their foundations a long time ago and I absolutely hate their mascaras, cause it makes my lashes look clumpy, short and droopy!! No no no!

Shampoo Galore

 

I was mighty ambitious and wanted to squeeze in pages from some of my favourite Japanese Magazines, but this post is so long already… and I feel like I’ve been writting 4ever.

I really love SHEL’TTER for the street fashion( its so cool), popteen(great makeup tutorials) and JACK STREET( cool men’s style!).. I think I will save pictures from these magazines and more for the next post.

 

Excuse the messy Hotel Room….
