Product Review: KISSME (ISEHAN) Heavy Rotation Coloring Eyebrow ~ Swatches

KissMe Heavy Rotation Coloring Mascara (Shade #01 Light Ash) was my first ever eyebrow mascara and I had been loving it since then.
I bought this eyebrow mascara about the time I started blogging on OnSugar (2 years?). My first one was bought from Taiwan Ebay.
Below shows my 2nd one bought from Taiwan stores with help from Elaine.

NT299 is about SGD$14.95

I love this shade alot because I usually bleach my hair and I want my eyebrow to look almost like my hair colour.

 

HEAVY ROTATION was formerly under KISSME. But recently, I found out KISSME has changed name to ISEHAN!!
Isehan.... Isetan? Any connection between them? lolx~

Current ISEHAN website:
See Heavy Rotation button link at the middle left hand side.

At Heavy Rotation page, shows the new version of the Coloring Eyebrow. The new version was out at about mid 2011 but I couldn't get my hands on it cos Singapore doesn't sell Coloring Eyebrow even though we have Heavy Rotation in stores, and Taiwan doesn't seem to carry this new version one too! (⌐_⌐")
Until last year Dec when I went to KL, I saw their Sasa selling the new coloring mascara! ^^
By the way, ¥840 is about SGD$13.35

And TADA!~ Here's the new version of Heavy Rotation Coloring Eyebrow in NEWEST Shade #03 Ash Brown!!

RM39.90 is about SGD$15.90 (Hmm... Taiwan cheaper? Or they had up the price in Japan? o_O)

The OLD vs the NEW!!
(Left) Heavy Rotation Coloring Eyebrow #01 Light Ash -- (Right) Heavy Rotation Coloring Eyebrow #03 Ash Brown
Realised the old one if 7gram and new is 8gram... where's the extra 1gram? The crystal shape cover?

(All the Lefts) #01 Light Ash -- (All the Rights) #03 Ash Brown
Note: I took these pics on a rainy day, hence there might be slight difference of the ones I took compare to the actual shade.

Sorry if the below pictures disgust all of you... m(_ _")m Pardon my super messy eyebrow!!
Due to the below swatches on my eyebrow were taken on a rainy day + on messy eyebrow + I didn't draw my eyebrow first, so the eyebrow mascara wasn't very obvious in the comparison photos as shown...
But in the super close-up pic, you could see the big difference between the 2 shades. One is ashy beige (left) and other is golden brown (right)

Overall Review of KISSME (ISEHAN) Heavy Rotation Coloring Eyebrow:
- Could conceal my black brow almost 80%
- Application is easier and works better with nicely trim brow than messy brow *points to upstairs*↑↑↑
- After applying 1 layer, wait for it to dry. Applying 2nd layer gives more coverage and colour becomes really intense
- After 2 applications, it dries up, hardens and stay in shape even after many hours
-  Sweatproof & waterproof, proven by me cos I wore it few times to play sports (I sweat buckets)
- Looks matte finished but has very fine glitters that could reflect under spotlight
- Only bad point is that the content from the tip of brush sometimes touches the skin and the colour stain the inner part of eyebrow, difficult to remove it, only way is to blend it out
- I like both the shades #01 & #03, they both suit my current hair colour

 

Here's one of the looks I recently took, also using the #01 Light Ash on top of NOEVIR excel Strong Liquid Eyebrow SWP #SL3
(Taken & edited by using IPhone App)

By the way, my hair is no longer like THIS anymore!!!!~ I'm currently restricted from posting my new haircut & haircolour online.... but uh.. perhaps it'll be revealed at one of the upcoming event's pic or something....(That, I can't stop right? =p~ lolx~) Stay tune!!!~  ╕(∩∑∩)╒

Till then! Cheers! (●♡●)

Comic Fiesta 2011 @ KLCC: My Cosplay & Beauty Haul (pic intensive!)

This post is somewhat the continuation of my previous X'mas-New Year post. ^^ (Read HERE for the previous post)

Last year Dec 16-19, I and a few friends went to Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur for a Cosplay event, Comic Fiesta 2011. The CF 2011 was held at Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC) and we stayed only a walking distance away, which is the Impiana Hotel.

The Petronas Twin Towers taken at night with Iphone. I posted this pic on that day in Instagram.

This is not my first time going to KL as previous was a work trip at some ulu KL industrial area, but I totally never been in KL town area before so most of the shopping places were recommended by my friends. Our first stop was at Nandos @ Sungei Wang. Heard that Nandos in Malaysia is 100% yummier than Singapore + cheap + no service charge! So yah, I tried one of their set meal. It was OK for me. My friends mentioned that the chicken thigh has shrunk and the taste wasn't that yummy like last time. They were rather disappointed.
The MILD flag is actually the spiciness level. I love adding the Garlic sauce from the bottle, my food taste nicer with the garlic ^^

Then we proceed to Sungei Wang for shopping, cos my friends said Sungei Wang is the best shopping place in KL, its like Far East Plaza, there are many levels and many shops in there and all their stuffs are CHEAAPPPppp~.
And what did I do? I went to a SALON to BLEACH my hair. (Not cheap though, cost me RM400!) Lolx~ I wanted to do it because I'm need my hair to be yellow for my cosplay on the CF Day 2. Below is a magazine which I was reading while I'm doing my hair. Fashion bloggers magazine! When will Singapore have their own Fashion/Beauty Bloggers magazine? o_O The contents inside the mag was very interesting! ^^

We then had Korean BBQ for dinner! Funny thing for this restaurant is that the staff in there said "SA WA DI KA!" to welcome customers. Isn't that THAI????!!! Lolx!~ Anyways, I LOVEEEEEEE The meat!!!! Its tender, thickness was just nice, so I don't find it hard to chew but yet, its thick enough to spill juices inside my mouth. *mouth watering meat~* I was still craving for more after we finished cos th BBQ set was shared among 5 of us. =p

And my small Haul @ Sungei Wang... Nothing much eh? I was in need of face mist (forgot to bring to KL) so dropped by Etude house to get 1 ^^ and look at the pretty paper bag they gave me~ BTW, it was a man who served me at Etude house.. Shouldn't singapore start recruiting male BAs now? We are like WAYYYYY behind! Hong Kong, Korea, Malaysia they all employ handsome male BAs! SG should have too! >,<

After half a day of shopping & eating, we all PENGS cos we din have any sleep at all on the previous day!!!!!~ (The long couch was REALLY COMFY!~ <^o^<)

The next day was Comic Fiesta Day 1. I wasn't cosplaying as I only intend to do for CF Day 2. And here shows me in my newly bleached hair. (Its SUPA DRY I TELL YOU! >_< I think I could die if I don't mask it.)

This is my first time attending a cosplay event overseas and also my first time seeing the event hall filled with rows & rows of doujin booths! OMG!~ Artworks after artworks after artworks~ Lovely! (//^o^//)

I do not know which korean character is the lady cosplaying, anyone knows? But it look fantastic! With the hair and everything! And then POKEMON!!! My fav nintendo game when I was young.. lolx~

Most cosplayers were all standing in the holding area walking around taking pics, including us. hahax~ I didn't really took alot of the cosplayer photos as I'm about 80% handicap myself..^^" Cos I need to carry my long skirt tail when I walk, otherwise people will step on it!

Finally, we on our way walking back to hotel via the overhead bridge. The bridge was always empty, so we jumped on the chance, had a few shots of our own before going back hotel. ^^

Photos by Data~

Yuanie, Hoshi, Data, mi!

Data took some pics for me at the lobby. One of them is this which I'm sitting down! This pic enhances my blue eyes really well! Uh i mean blue lens~ While the blur pic on the right is taken using Iphone with help from Yuanie @ the corridor outside our room. ^^"

On the 4th day, which is our last day in KL, Hoshi and I went shopping. YEAH, at last! (Yuanie was at a photoshoot)
We walked from our hotel to Pavilion. There were tons of BEARS displayed outside the Pavilion, featuring each country's paintings & designs on the bear. Some of the designs are pretty obvious where its from, I compiled a few bears to show to all as seen below.
Anyone can guess the replica version of winnie the pooh is from_____???? And guess which is Singapore's???

We then walk to Sungei Wang, and on the way went in other malls to take a look.
I also went in Sephora and found out that their stuffs are sold slightly cheaper than Singapore! I din buy anything though, cos the lighting in there was Orange, I can't see the swatches whether they are beige/yellow/orange or wat! I hate their lightings <∆<"

And so.. that's about much for my first overseas trip to a cosplay event ^_^ Perhaps, the next time would be Japan! Looking forward to it!

miwitch wishes all "Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!"

I mean, Belated Merry X'mas & Happy New Year! Hahax~ ^^"

I hadn't been blogging since last year (lolx). For past 2 months+ I was very busy with work, going out on my off days and preparing my cosplay stuff (More like resting when I have some spare time as I'm just too tired! lolx~).
Now I got lots of stuffs to write about: my collective haul, my birthday, my trip to KL, X'mas presents! ^o^ And not forgetting reviews! I hadn't been doing it for so long! Pls forgive me *bows* m(_ _")m

Anyhoo, hereby presenting my cosplay, me as 藤乐乐 [Teng Le Le] from 独领风骚 [THE ONE], taken by Data.  This is like my.... 3rd time cosplaying the same character? ^^" I never get bored of doing it cos its considered the least troublesome costume among the rest. And its my first time cosplaying outside of Singapore! Hence I'm very excited about it! XD~
Following 3 photos all taken at Impiana Hotel in KL, Malaysia.Thats the hotel that we stayed during Comic Fiesta 2011 @ KLCC (CF Facebook) (More coverage @ Danny Choo) Its an overall good hotel, I like it ^^, service & food was ok. We only experienced once which the power tripped in the morning and we have to brush teeth in the dark toilet even though its morning lolx~ Cos everyday in KL was cloudy~

My friends Hoshi & Yuanie cosplaying as Vocaloid Rin & Len respectively, and I'm not cosplaying nor am I wearing a wig! kekkex~ I'm their nanny for CF Day 1, accompanying them to the event and taking care of their belongings ^^
More of my OOTD in: miwitch's Instagram & DA
Photo taken by Data, X'mas wishes added by me.

The first Christmas pic I took & PSed: "Rin & Len says Merry Christmas!"

Pics taken at the Comic Fiesta event in KLCC - 17 & 18 Dec 2011

Below shows part of my collective hauls (Since Oct till today) + birthday presents + X'mas presents! Too much to mention one by one.. (^^")
Thanks to Na, Ah Ru, Di, Sel, Nessa, Sophia, Kas, Ashlene & fellow colleagues for the wonderful stuffs you girls got for me! ♥

I still got lots more of lovely stuffs to show (Y I didn't include my KL haul in above pic? *slaps head*), plus, I haven't collect my stuffs from a friend who just went Korea recently! Oh gosh.. I just realised.... too much makeup to handle! =_="
I guess I'll go selective on my haul posting otherwise it'll probably take me 1 year to blog about it, considering the rate of my posts... hahax~
Fighting!! \\(^o^)

Till then! Cheers! (●♡●)

MNET Asian Music Award (MAMA) SG 2011 ~ OOTD @Instagram ~ Collective Hauls

Though I always been busy, that doesn't stop me from taking pics of my OOTD when I'm going out on my Off days. (My Off days are like, very RARE~) Hmm.. I'm thinking should I rename my blog to like, Monthly Dressup Shots instead of Daily? ahhax~ I seriously do not know why I put Daily. *knocks own head* (>,<")o~

Anyhoo, if you had been following me in Instagram, you probably had seen my OOTD shots as like below: (Clicky to enlarge)

My Instagram ID is none other than miwitch (Follow me!)
To view the online version of my Instagram page is: http://instaview.me/user/miwitch/
I started using Instagram around January and I just got addicted like few months ago. ^.^
I been posting other random pics too in my a/c but I'll probably just limit to taking OOTD, LOTD, NOTD, my pets, food (if its really like delicious~ ^^), and stuffs that are visually appealing (lolx~) in the future.

 

And this is my most recent OOTD, also posted in Instagram.
The day I went to MNET Asian Music Award (MAMA) SG 2011 @ Indoor Stadium!!!~ ^o^/~
OOTD theme: Peach on Flats
Decipher: Peachy legs wearing flat boots. Lolx~ I already expect myself to stand for 4-6 hours without resting so I gotta wear flats!
I thought that I'm rather underdress that day (am I not? ^^") apparently, I received a comment from some stranger "she's shouldn't be in here". My colleagues laughed at the statement and they told me to go up stage. hahhax~

Wahahx.. messy hair~ And oh god, my puffy eyes.. (@)_(@) Recently, my face starts to have bumps & scars again... =( *conceal conceal conceal!*

Outside Indoor Stadium. See the QQQQQQQQ!!!~~~

Me & my colleagues before the event starts~

The Korean STARS!!!~ I'm only looking at 2NE1, Super Junior, Girls Generation (SNSD) and BEAST! (B2ST)
Though they look small in my pics, but in actual they look pretty near to us! And looks BIG in my eyes! OoO WOoooo~

Overall, I only love it when the bands come onto the stage and perform. Other than that, I'm not enjoying it. :\ Imagine we have to stand 4 hours at 1 spot (literally!) and we couldn't move at all. Plus i hate it when everyone takes out cam to take pics & videos of the stars. I mean, who the hell would look at your blur pics and unsteady videos? The cams and arms are blocking my view even though I'm like 1 head taller than anybody else (most of them infact, which gives me an ultimate advantage especially for standing concerts. Lolx~), so when their arms are up, I had to switch to looking at the big screen. Basket.
If its just taking few pics for like 20 secs, I find its still ok. But NOOOoo, they had to hang their cams in the air for the whole of 3-4 hours! I wish I could like use the lightstick to PIAK at the person's head infront of me to get her bring down her stupid chunky DSLR. Lolx!
Actually, I hit her and her friend few times on the head accidentally cos she keep moving backwards almost leaning on me as she need to bring up her BIG DSLR and I was like "OH YEAH, WOOOO, YAHHHH!!" *Puts hands up, wave lightstick, PIAK her head with arm* XD~
A young girl standing beside me was pretty high too and we both sing along to every of the K-pop songs. (She didn't take pics! Amazed!) I kinda felt there's this weird connection between me and her through-out the whole event. kekex!~ While on other side my colleagues who only know Suju songs, they kept taking pics & vids and shriek when Suju comes up. *Ouch my ears* =_=
Talking about bad concert experience.. This is like my 3rd time? =.= Sigh~ Wat's with all these youngsters???? Perhaps, I'm too old for concerts? >_>"

At end of the event, this tent still open for business. I the backdrop. It makes the tent look so classic and vintage. Don't you think? ^^

Goodies: A free recycle bag & brownies in stickers of handsome korean male artistes *drools* I mean, DROOLS on brownie. =p
I saw a B!bigo Hot Stone advert on one of the postcard, looks nice! Anyone went before? =D I hope to try it someday! Na, Ah Ru, wana go? kekex~

Oh yes, never end an event without some unexpected souvenirs. hahhax~

Collective Hauls

I did bought lots of stuffs, but I feel that maybe I just show some for today, as I got not much time to do a long post.. ^^" I'll continue my haul post next time!
Castledew Pear-up Eyes: Of the 3, I got myself the white one. The 2 green ones I gave to Na & Ah Ru! ^^ Hope you all like it!

Rachel K Mineral Color Control BB in Neutral $35 (less 30%): Bought it at watsons sales, Suntec outlet. Like finally sales on Rachel K, but to my surprise, no one is at the Rachel K shelf. My luck perhaps? ^^
Uniqlo Bowler Hat in light brown $29.90: So cute! I'm actually saving, refrain from buying anything fashion related stuffs, so I could spend more if I go Japan next year, but this hat is too lovely, I hope to wear this in Japan!~ ^^

L'Oreal Infaillible Eyeshadow #024 Bronze Goddess $14.90
L'Oreal Infaillible Eyeshadow #027 Goldmine $14.90
Had to thanks Na for helping to find these 2 shades during the Buy 2 get 1 free promo (@ Watsons only)

When one mention Bronze, naturally one will think its warm tone. Compare to my other eye look (right side), Bronze Goddess appear to be of a cooler tone, almost towards greenish-grey. The Infaillible eyeshadow has this pretty glitters and gives off a smooth satin sheen when applied.
By the way, it looks much more pigmented if I use finger to apply them. Brushes doesn't pick up the pigments well.

And that's all for my post today~ Thanks all for reading!~ ^^

Till then! Cheers! (●♡●)

2011 Apr Collective Fashion Hauls: Courts, GMarket, Far East Plaza ~ OOTD, Gyaru LOTD

I had been wanting a tall mirror (long enough to see myself in the reflection) for the longest time ever, but always never did get any from IKEA because they do not have a simple standing mirror. Most designs are required to be mounted on wall.

While I was at Tampines Courts 2 weeks earlier, I saw this mirror and immediately my eyes SPARKLESSSssss!!!~~~~ Simple, sleek, occupy very minimum area and.. very heavy! The stand is strong enough to withstand the mirror weight hence I'm not worried the mirror's gonna fall back. ^^ I got this for $59!~

So what do I need the mirror for? Basically, for me to wear my shoes and decide which one to match with my outfit, and do a last check or take a picture of myself before I head out! Just like the below pic. kekex~~ ^o^ I'm wearing the WTF top!~ =p

Do i look like gay boy from a boy band? =p

CLICKY HERE to Continue... ^^

Well, there isn't much partying for me this time round. More like dressing up, walking around, taking pics, Puri, and eat.... hhhaax~ (Isn't it what I always do? -_-)

The left pic shows 2 girls wearing Waloli (Japanese Traditional clothes with Lolita Fashion) and that's basically what I wore on Halloween night.
The picture was found on A+LIDEL official website long ago but the site's not available now.
From my understanding, the picture was drawn by a Japanese artist and his/her pictures inspired A+LIDEL to make costumes from the drawings into real clothings.
TO view of A+LIDEL fashion, see HERE.

I found this picture 4 years ago and immediately, love this pic so much that I decided to custom make the waloli set with all the ready fabrics I could get.
So, is it called Dressup? Or... Cosplay?
I feel its not exactly cosplaying the characters as I do not have the exact prints and masks. So I'll call it as Dressing up but following the picture pose. ^_^"


Here's a studio (the studio is my home..haha..) shot of me and my friend in the costume took almost 4 yrs ago.. Don't ask what the hell is EnSu Dolls! I forgot why i name that! (-_-") Basically its the same pose with different backgrounds! hahahx~ I'm THAT great with photo manipulation. =p~ *prouds*
Note: the chinese characters on the shoulder area are photoshopped in, they are not printed on the costume.
And a silly funny pic of us:

Halloween OOTD
And on Halloween, we intend to make some changes to our outfit...
We are the WALOLI DEAD DOLLS!!! (I look so dead, why my friend Nessa look so ALIVE! *headdesk*) And a MAJOR wrong wrong thing I did is to put that YELLOW FLOWER ON MY HEAD! (*headdesk x 999*)

And then, an INCIDENT HAPPENED!
While Nessa & me were hanging just outside ION Sephora, taking pictures by the stretch of empty walkway, we were approached by a cute lady & her guy friend looking all so excited with big eyes, asking where we buy our costume from. She complimented that our costumes are really pretty and touched our sleeves. Lolx..
Then as soon as I told her its custom made, she looked so sad! Then she gets enthu again and ask where we got the fabrics from, I told her its from overseas. And she turn sad again! XD~ She reminds me of PUPPY!!! OMG!!~ So cute! hahhax~
She complimented our costumes again and then she went off waving goodbye smiling~ ^.^v~ Sometimes its things like this which happens once in awhile on something that we made effort to do, and we get true compliments from strangers that made our day. =D ♥♥♥ Isn't it??? (I just lost a $50 note during my work on 30th Friday and 31st I got this compliment, it fills the hole in my heart )

The 4 of us! (Di, Nessa, Sel & me!) I look damn 'dead' here...hahax!
I love both Sel & Di's dressups even though both of them are rather different genre. Sweet & Cool~ We are all Fashion Junkies!

Random Puris:

I know I'm bad.. Nessa really looked so stun in the first pic.. xD But I wanted that photo so badly as I have that Sluty look which I L♡VE!!
See the witch hat? Its Mi (Witch)! I've really got that witchy look there~
The big leopard ribbon on my head is ♥!! (Like Lady Gaga! XD)

ARE YOU READY???? TO READ....

miwitch's REVIEW of Talika Lipocils Expert in 12 days (27 Sept - 8 Oct)

Close-up shots of Lipocils Expert applicator.
I used the sponge tip to go all over the roots of my upper and lower lashes and then brush my lashes in upwards motion (for upper lash only) with the brush.

In order to acheive the best comparisons of the lashes in photos, I took all photos in the same room, same lighting, same method using same camera.
However position of my eye might differ in every pic, the camera don't focus well at times and the photo brightness will be a little different too.
Plus, its EYELASH we're talking here, not a big object like TV or something... That would have been easier to shoot!
I'm sorry but my lashes are thin, not very long and full. So its very hard for me to focus the lashes easily without proper lighting and camera... >_< So this is the best I could provide.

Before you judge the product effectiveness base on my pictures and texts, please note the following:
- I try my best to use Lipocils Expert every Day & Night, but sometimes I forgot to apply either on the day or night but I DID apply it everyday.
- I feel that I have denser and longer lashes on my right eye than my left
- I have very droopy eyelids, which causes the lashes at most outer corner sometimes wandering into my eye, poking it.
- I have almost none (U_U") lower lashes, they are very thin & short and can even be counted using 10 fingers! (or maybe 20..)
- I have super sensitive eyes (super meaning is more than 'very'). Anything that goes into my eyes, I will tear buckets.
- The white part of my eyes are usually pinkish looking on normal days. Anything that hurts or stings my eyes, it will go bloody red.
And hence, I find that I'm rather a good subject for trying out a lash serum, I just hope I wont go BLIND trying out things on my eyes.. +_+"

On with the pics:
I PSed only the white parts as they are too scary looking, and I've sharpened alittle on the lashes for a clearer view.

Here, I try to spot the difference using the photos.
Infact, on the 3rd day (ie, 29 Sept) I already realised that my lashes are thicker!
Everyone like long lashes, but I DO NOT like the lashes at my outer corner of my eyes to be too long cos it will poke my eye sometimes due to my droopy eyelids. =( And then I will tear...

*Sorry for spelling mistake for Curlier (i spelt curvier.. hahax~ =p)

Whether the lashes are curlier than last time, I think they are but verrrrrrrrrrrrry little. I forgotten to take a sideview pic on first day to compare with this. *slaps head*
I have rather stubborn straight thin lashes as like my stubborn straight thin hair, so they are very hard to curl with curlers, I had to press the curler like 20 times in order to get them stay in shape before I apply mascara. Nowadays I find that its much more easier as they will stay at the curled shape for quite long even without putting on mascara!

Lastly and MOST IMPORTANTLY, this Lipocils Expert DOES NOT STING my eyes AT ALL! *YIPPE!!!!!!!!!!*
When I apply it just right at the base or roots of my lashes without the content going into my eye, I feel NOTHING! No sting!
But when the content goes into my eye, it stings verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrryyy little. I just blinked a few times and then its gone! I might tear a little due to the discomfort the little sting gave, but after awhile its ok. ^_^
I jus LOVE the feeling of no sting in compare to my DHC eyelash serum where it stings even when the gel is like a few mm away from my eyes.

This is only a 12-day efficacy test. We are suppose to come out with a 28-days efficacy test for Lipocils Expert.
I came out with the test earlier cos I haven't got time to post about the bloggers event last month. So, I thought I might as well post a 12 day first as a teaser or something. More like I wanted to know the results myself. =p
Hang on to your pants! I'll be back with the 28-days test review! (^,~)v♥

Shot 28 Aug, 8 & 9 Sep: OOTDs ~ LOTDs

Something off topic for a while.. I've always said my cat drools on keyboard and some of you might wonder how he actually can DROOL on my keyboard.. So here is..
My lovely Mimi the cat (its a boy!) who is in his cutest position.... : On my lap. (XD~)

In middle of night when he can't sleep or gets bored from doing nothing but sleep, he will stand up and put his paws on my chair, looking up at me to ask for my permission to cuddle him.
And so here is his usual position: Head on my right arm (sometimes even lying his whole head on it till my arms got numb), his body on my lap, under the keyboard slider (is that what you call it, slider?)...
Sometimes he will lay his head on the slider when his neck gets tired, resulting drools on the keyboard...

When I whip out my camera, he claws at the strap... He's a very good clawer i must say, hence the scars on my hands and leg...
He stays on my lap for about 15-30 mins before finally realising that he's not in a good sleeping posture, and Off he goes to lay somewhere more comfortable... =^.^=
One more extra picture of his head on the slider: (pic taken long ago)

 

Right, on to the usual stuffs.. //^____^//

Nowadays, I dress up in styles that suits my hair. I chose clothes towards rock, punk, manly styles. I'd neglected my sweet, cutesy dresses for some time ever since my hair got cut to this length. (,=∧=,)

I cried for few days now, as my body is too heaty and that always make my eyes feel very hot and it gets all sensitive and tear lots non-stop.. It kept ruin my eye makeup!!! (#$^%@)#%_(_@$*%@#&$

THIS IS DA BREAKTHROUGH!!!
Have you ever tried to do a look that you had decided in your mind which probably gonna look great but turned out "Sharks... why isn't it like what I wanted..?"
Well yah, it happens to me zillion of times.
I have this borderline that my eyeshadows will always stop at, and it doesn't ever go beyond it. I feel that there is this big lobang (empty space) between the brow and my e/s border line (as drawn on left pic)
I been telling myself many times to blend the colours higher! HIGHER! But it just don't go up!
But this time! I think I broke that line! See how "ROUND" my e/s appears on my lid on the right pic, compare to the left which is "FLAT". HA,HA! YES I did it!

 

On 9 Sept, my colleagues and I had a dinner gathering at Robertson Quay. There's this new shop opened by my colleague's husband. They sell North Indian food! YUM! One of my favourite! I just can't stop thinking of NAANsssssss (credits http://www.sailusfood.com).

Their shop is call BAR BAR BLACK SHEEP, selling North Indian Cuisines. Its very very nice OMG, I think I was the only person who ate ALOT. XD~
If you girls often go to the quay, you can try this out! Beside this store, is another bar selling beer and such (I'm not an alcohol person, i know NUTS about them...~_~) The 2 stores share the same building. So you can eat naans and drink beer. kekekex~

Well then, since I thought of Quay, I thought of sitting near the river (indeed we were! so cooling and cozy~) relaxing, chit chat-ing while having my favourite Naans... etc..
So I plan to dress in my utmost relaxed mode... style. ---- Beach wear!
OOTD: Relax mode look
Inner Red Spag: Chinatown Level 2
Frilly Blue Shorts: Chinatown Level 2
Flamingo Racer Back Long Top: Pull & Bear
Necklace & Leather Bracelet: China
Gladiator Shoes: AMK HUB Black Hammer

Beachy (not bitchy!) LOTD:
Face - SANA Pore Putty Makeup Base Clear
- L'EGERE White Multi BB Cream
- MAC Studio Finish Concealer
- SANA PorePutty Moist Face Powder
Brow - NOEVIR excel Strong Liquid Eyebrow SWP #SL3
Eyes -
KATE eye gel shadow in Pink
- O2 Skin in MC2947 (Yellow) & MC2911 (Green)
- VOV Eyeshadow Palette 05 (Blue)
- Fresh Minerals Waterproof Liner in dark brown
- KissMe Heroine Make long & curl mascara
Lips - Callas Lip Liner in BE01
- YSL Rouge Volupte 30 Lipstick
I love how the Coral lips matches well with the eye makeup! ^.^ But the lipstick ends up together with my Naans, in my stomach =p


IGNOTE MY MESSY BROWS!! (AGAIN!)
The e/s appears rather translucent or washed-off.. O2 Skin seem to be not very pigmented and blendable. VOV works alittle better than O2 Skin.

O2 Skin in MC2947 (Yellow) & MC2911 (Green)
VOV Eyeshadow Palette 05 (Blue)

And Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri to all muslims out there! May you get as many 'green' pows as possible!

Till then! Cheers! (●♡●)

Fashion & Beauty Collective Hauls: Mango, KATE, YSL, SMH, Aqua Label, Epilat...

Been very busy with work, attending events, catching some sleep as I'm too tired after work.. =_= Hence I've collected quite many hauls since the GSS.

Fashion Hauls:
Mango Black Jeans $29: Its a STEAL! My ever first MANGO Jeans and its gona be fully black cos....I need to wear to work..~_~ Nevertheless, its so long, long enough for the jeans to even gather some cloth at my ankle! Yippie!
Uniqlo Abstract Leggings $14.90: Japanese aren't that tall, that's why the leggings only reach about half of my calf only.. And it kinda look like PJs..
Massive oversea Fashion hauls $: Too many items and I didn't have the time to name one by one and calculate the price... Just 3 words, them all! (See my stockings? I have N numbers of unworn stockings now! =p~)

Lens Hauls:
Bought from Allan (Kosmo) http://coslensescatalogue.blogspot.com
Geo Tri Series $15/pair: In Grey
Anime Lens $15/pair: in CP-A6

And now on to the Beauty Hauls:
(Kanebo) KATE Eyebrow Colour $14.50: In lightest shade LB-2 (Later on shows comparison of KATE & Heavy Rotation Eyebrow Mascara)
(Kanebo)KATE Gel eye shadow $14.50: In GD-1
Both of them bought at ALT @ The Heeren (View MariAsh's blog about it!) ALT is BIGGGG!!! (I meant big place Lolx) I've also found one new Korea cosmetic counter brand in ALT yesterday which the BA claimed that their products all contains Botox! And they frequently change the cosmetics and the colours, almost every month! I am like kind of tempted to try it, but na & me think that it definitely gonna cost a bomb since it has Botox! OoO"
I kinda forgot what is the name of that brand now... (Should have asked for a brochure! Darn..)

Stars Makeup Heaven Eyeshadow Pans $5 each: Two to Tango & Flare to the Dramatic

Testing out the 'Oh!-Very-Bouncy!' (quoted by na) Eyegel, and some swatches...
Most bottom shows: Eyegel → Two to Tango overlaying Eyegel → Two to Tango → Flare to the Dramatic

YSL Rouge Volupte 30 Lipstick $49: Taking the pics of the lipstick @ MRT Station! (Cos i can't wait to use it! XD~) See na's peachy nail matches the lippy!

Further on... Watson's Hauls:
Heal Pharm Charcoal Nose Pose Pack $1.95/box: It's Ariya's recommendation! (Na's sis)
(Shiseido) AquaLabel Moist Essence CL $29.90: Collagen for Cheeks! I recently find that my face's shape kinda changed (can't fight aging..sigh~), hence thinking to get some elasticity back to my loose skin!
Ora2 Stain Clear Tooth Paste $ 5.50
Ora2 Stain Clear Mouth Wash $6.95: I admit I hate using Mouth Wash! But I am so attracted by the silly but cute girls animation in the Ora2 commercial!
Royale Bouquet Hand Wash $9.95 for 2: I love the packaging! Indeed looking very 'royal' there! But the scent however kinda smells weird...
Kracie Epilat Mini Bleaching Cream for Body Hair $9.90: I had waited for AGES for Singapore to sell body hair Bleach agents!
Kracie Epilat Cite Line Depilatory (Hair Removing) Cream $18.90: For Skin Sofron Type (its written on it, I don't know what is sofron..◐_◐")

Kracie Epilat Mini Bleaching Cream for Body Hair:
2 packs of A+B. Is mentioned that 1 pack of A+B can use for the whole body.
As per what the Japan Epilat website states, it can only be used on arms and legs. (But I am currently thinking otherwise... heh heh heh ◐∇◐)

Instructions of the Removal Cream...
Difference usage instructions found on the back of the Removal Cream packaging and the paper which was found inside the packaging. (underlined in RED)
Final conclusion (as translated from the original Epilat's site):
- Can be used on Arms, Legs AND Underarms.
- But refrain from using on Facial Hair and (Head) Hair

Gaurdian's Haul:
Klorane Gentle Dry Shampoo (Spray type) $14.90: I had also been looking for Dry Shampoo for a long time, I totally don't remember that na had told me she is using one... hahhax~ Nevertheless, I'm happy to be able to get hold of a dry shampoo in Singapore! I totally had no idea what other brands have dry shampoos. I know there are many more brands that have and are selling alot cheaper than $14.90, but they are all only available in USA! =(((

Finally, comparisons (mini Review) with KATE & Heavy Rotation Eyebrow Mascaras:
As you can see that KATE's has golden mini glitters in it, while Heavy Rotation is a fully matt brown mascara.
I find that its easier to get HR's content onto the eyebrow than that of KATE's. Reason being HR has a bigger and wider brush, content is sticker, hence it can pick up alot and it grabs on to the eyebrow really well, plus its waterproof.
KATE's has small brush with a narrower brush end, is watery, picks up content little by little when you removed it from tube, however feels softer after it drys up on your eyebrow, plus it gives your eyebrow a glittery effect!

I personally like both for their own factors.
HR is matt and colour is on the blonde side, suitable when I bleach my hair to yellow.
KATE's gives my eyebrow a softer look and it looks more to GOLD than towards blonde, which I like too! ^_^ (Just because its GOOOOLLLDDD... XD)

Before I end this entry, I just want to say that YEAH! I AM NO LONGER YSL, KATE, SMH VIRGIN! YIPPEEEEEEE!!!!~~~

Till then! Cheers! (●♡●)

Shot 20 June 2010, Big Hauls - Pull and Bear, Inuovi, Neutrogena, Heavy Rotation etc..

I had no chance to tell you before you click this linky, that.... this page is image intensive!!

Anyways, first off, the OOTD:
Skull stufs Cap: City Square Mall, a shop that sells punk/street wear
Long Tee: Japan
Belt, Shorts: Overseas
Black cotton Panty Hose: Dorothy Perkins
High-cut Ankle Canvas Shoes: AMK Central, one of the shoe shops that sells mostly canvas shoes
Cross with Crown Necklace: Thailand
Bracelets: Rubi & Chinatown New Market 3rd level
Leopard print Shoe laces: Daiso!

Focus Points: Protruding pockets & Leopard print Shoe laces
Making sure the shoe laces ends are dangling rather than tied up, making the look more casual 'street'

My LOTD:
Minimum eye makeup, using Loreal Paris Open Eyes Palette: Magic Amber.
In this eye makeup, I name it the 'Rainbow'. Starting from the darkest brown colour along the lashline and slowly fades out to lightest shade upwards, drawing in a rainbow kind of method. =p
Just to say: I DO NOT HAVE UNBALANCE EYEBROWS! I just have unbalanced double eyelids! Which stupidly makes my eyebrows kinda look like one is higher than the other.. urgh.. OTL|||

My Fashion Hauls:
Pull & Bear @ Ngee Ann
This is totally out of my TO BUY LIST! Ok...frankly speaking I didn't prepare my Buy list before I head town, hence I just anyhow buy... sigh~
Short Singlet in repeat patterns of trees: $19.90
Flamingo Long Singlet: $29.90
I need to "Lipstick" Up Tee: $17.90 (Cheap & Cute words! XD~)
Pull & Bear are having many very nice tees @ such prices, even for the gents, they have many nice graphics printed on them! Anyone who loves tees should grab them now since its GSS! ^o^
(((Ignore my nerdy face & my crazzzzzy hair in the changing room...U_U" )))

Last pic shows purchases from:
New Look @ 313
Twisted Grunge Rope Necklace with crosses: $19.10
Black Corsage with crystal (clip & pin type): $7.90

Next off, Skincare & Makeups!

I headed to Town area, one reason being that I had WON the ESTEE LAUDER Weekly Giveaway Contest! (from Facebook)

So, I went to collect this 15ml Advanced Night Repair from Tangs Estee Lauder Counter.  Seems like Joyce you too gotten this prize? ^.~
The letter that I brought along to collect this little prize wrote that 15ml bottle of ANR cost about $45? O_O And at the counter I saw this HUGE bottle of ANR... Will it cost like $450?? hahax.. I didn't ask..
Liking the dropper method!

Watsons Hauls:
Kiss Me Heavy Rotation Sexy Enamel Gloss (in Honey 04 & Cool Beige 02): $16.90 /each
I ran into Aries whose a BA for Loreal, she ask me to try this gloss while she's still at work @ her counter! Isn't it funny! =D She told me this lipgloss is by far the best one she had used as it can really conceal your pigmented lips even without wearing lipsticks! Oooo.. I had a lip concealer from this range and loving it so far, hence not a bad idea for me to try out their gloss too. The scent of the gloss is exactly same as the lip concealer.
Neutrogena Rainbath: $9.90
Neutrogena Ultra Sheer SPORT Sunblock Cooling Mist: $24.50 (It is a sunblock & a cooling mist in 1!! Both are my favourites! )

Sasa Hauls: (20% off I nuovi products! Grab now before its gone!)
I nuovi Trucolor Eyeshadow (in Rich Gold): $20.80 (usual $26)
I nuovi Facescape (in Malibu Barbie): $36 (usual $45)
I nuovi LipTreat: $24 (usual $30)
ARE Eyeshadow Brush: $3.60
Shiseido Eyelash Curler (with refill): $16.20 (bought for na)

Guardian Haul:
Lip smacker Rollys (in Vanilla Coke): $7.90 (I tried on my hand, kinda felt oily...U_U" )

And now some Swatches!
I love the brushtip of the lipgloss! So smooth~

Credits to Joyce, putting up animated gifs is an easy way to show how a product works (besides video) ^___^v~

I nuovi Lipscrub and treatment doesn't have any colour when I apply the content on my hand, hence no pic! The scrub micro-beads is so very fine, so different from the beads we often use in face scrub! Nice!
Facescape also has a highlighter & blush colour, I'm so inlove with the highlight colour, thinking if I should get it or not.. But I like the bronze colour from this shade too!

And some choo choo cats for everyone (to view only...)! =^◑ω◑^=

And ending with a total damage of $260.20 in half a day!!!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Till then! Cheers! (●♡●)
