  • This past weekend, I had the opportunity to help do "makeup" for one of my good friend, a pageant winner for another pageant she was attending =) When she had asked me, I couldn't help but laugh really hard (ironic isn't it?)and told her that I wasn't good enough yet to do makeup for anyone, but myself. Well, I think I can do decently with foundation, blush, a bit of contour, some eyebrow grooming, but the eyes, the eye shadows are so difficult! Hence, I was not confident at all, but in the end, with the help of a friend, a fellow lover of makeup and beauty, and after a long time, my friend looks pretty good! =)

    • Moral of the story: My eyeshadow skills are horrible, it's 1 thing to be able to do it on myself, my eye shapes, but it's another to do the same thing to another individual. I will practice, practice, blend, blend, and not apply so much color at once!

  • I recently discovered Bloglovin through Nancy's blog and I really like it! Before, I used to read all the updates of the blogs that I followed with the google reader or through the blog updates from blogger, but I like the layout of Bloglovin more. It's a great way to organize your favorite blogs, follow them, like them, and it's good to be expose to other blogs in other categories, not to mention daily popular posts/blogs =)

  • Through Bloglovin, I was able to find some really awesome, super wonderful makeup blogs that have super high quality photos of eyeshadows! I love playing with eye shadows because the colors are so pretty and you don't know the amazing end results after playing with so many different colors! I also followed foreign bloggers, unfortunately the posts are not in English, but there's always Google Translator!





Gorgeous!

Review: Maybelline's Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner

Maybelline's Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner   in  Blackest Black  is very creamy and super gentle when applied to the lids, not to mention the brush is definitely a great add in as well. I remember when I first bought the L'oreal Hip Gel Eyeliner, the tiny brush that came with it was super stiff and horrible, but this brush is more flexible and it can be use to fling your winged eyeliners and such.  Would I repurchase this product again?  Yes, I really want to   eggplant .  In terms of staying power, I have really oily lids, so when I had this on the other day, it lasted a lot longer than I thought (although I don't remember how many hours, definitely not 24 though because I could tell part of the liner was fading).  I'm sure if you apply an eye primer base or your concealer, it would last a very long time.    I took this picture right after I bought the product because I was so excited to try it since it had ...

Can a $2 castor oil product make your eyelashes grow?! Or is it a magical "potion?"

Has anyone heard of CASTOR OIL? ( bottle on the right) I came across this product when I searched on YouTube for ways to help eyelashes grow other than the vaseline I was trying, (well, I didn't want to spend $40 on Rapidlash). I had another YTuber who was using castor oil + olive oil  to enhance her lash growth and thought, why not try it?!    I tried it for a couple weeks but it didn't really make an impact on me. But now, I have returned! and is trying just Castor Oil only this time =) However, I'm doing a mini eyelashes experiment to compare the growth between Castor oil ( will be apply to the right eye) and Sweet Almond Oil (left eye) for 1 month.  Read below to see the benefits of this versatile oil and if my eyelashes even grew between the 2. What is CASTOR OIL? According to Skinverse , Castor Oil is extracted from the seeds of the castor oil (ricinus communis), its color is pale yellow and rather transparent, sort of just like olive oil. It doesn't r...

First Goodbye

  This specific day I said goodbye to something, the first of its kind in my life.It is difficult to let go when something has become part of your life and you will not be the same after it is gone.  I will do my best to focus on other things in my life and getting things done.  I don't regret it though, I'm grateful because we are not rocks nor stones that are untouchable and life brings us events and people to change our lives. Thank you for everything you have given me I now have a thing for rings and earrings, long earrings. The one above is my favorite (Charlotte Russe), it reminds me of mango leaves for some reason and  that leads to the book The House on Mango Street that I will read by the end of this year. Have you ever been in an experience where you never want to be in ever again? I never want to be so cold again, therefore, I always wear a small camsole (is that right?) inside all of my shirts.  I think i'm kind of into lacey clothing items. ...
