Revlon Colorburst Lipstick + my shopping trip..

Besides getting "ang pao" from my mum and aunty, the one and only pressie I received for my birthday, and love dearly, is this lipstick - Revlon Colorburst in soft nude. (sorry, pic I randomly google. lazy to snap mine) this was a gift from my darling, Hooi Ling. (thanks a lot)

Been having this in my wishlist for as long as I knew it was out in the market.
It feels soft, moisturise, and weightless on the lips. Colour payoff is fantastic, and I'm starting to make mental notes on other colours that I might be getting soon!! I think, next on the list will be the colour - mauve!!
Thus far, my all time favourite nude lippie. Can be worn on its own. No worries...as it does not give that dead matte look, but brings with it creamy feeling, with a touch of gloss. Damn. I love it to bits!

I wore it out yesterday when I was in Penang shopping...I haven't been out for a long time. And I was on a mad rush to buy whatever I see that I like, and fit me well.
Sadly, I wore my new high heels, and gosh...didn't know that 6 months of not walking in high heels, I was suffering the entire time, trying to walk properly, and to nurse my poor feet...
It is either,
1) heels to high
2) size too small
3) too long never walk in heels
I was begging my sister to change shoes with me. Lol..she was wearing Adidas sneakers..(imagine me in that with this dress on???!! Eeww...but when you're in pain, you won't even mind walking bare footed)
Ah...get back to the centre of discussion, my revlon lipstick. Here are the pictures to justify it. Though I don't think these pictures do it any justice, as its colour is soo much prettier in real.
I love nude lippies now so much. Though they may make me look wash out. But I have had enough of looking at my too pigmented lips...this is the perfect holy grail for me.



I'll just take the opportunity to state what I have on my face (must make it look more pro..like a real beauty blogger..kekeke...)

Face*
-dermalogica sunblock
-No.7 tinted moisturiser in light
-Rimmel Stay Matte Loose Powder
-E.L.F blush (the one that comes with bronzer on one side)

Eye*
-Urban Decay eyebrow powder on eyebrows.

Lip*
-Korres lipbalm in jasmine
-Revlon Colorburst lipstick in soft nude.

Have a great day people!!

What on earth happen???

Beware to those conservative readers...you are warned beforehand that this post contains uncensored picture..

I seriously do not understand how on earth did this happen. You'll be shock.
The bf, as usual attached this very amazingly cute pictue of two little kitties doing the Titanic stunt in one of his latest mail.

Being unaware of anything suspicious, I click on the exact mail few days later, to read the mail again, cause that was one of the most meaningful mail he wrote to me, and, imagine my shock when my cute little kitties turned into this very disgusting picture......
(and mind you people, the black coloured part, I drew it on my own, so that I won't be accused of turning my blog into some underage pornography section.

Terrible ain't it?? I called up the bf immediately and ask whether he pulled a prank on me. He was dumbfolded. When he check back the mail, and to his utter horror, he saw this, he went nuts, cursing and scolding whoever, and whatever did this.
Up until now, we have discussed it over and over, yet could not come up with a proper explanation, to how did this happen....

My birthday!!

My birthday is coming soon....and I've already planned how I'll spend my birthday money.
The first thing I will definitely buy, is THE pair of heels I have been eyeing on. Then, I may spend part of my money on some nice dresses. I haven't bought any yet ever since I came home to Malaysia. Then, some money will go for online shopping....a makeup junkie like me can never live without doing monthly makeup purchases.
However, I will be saving some of my money up, just so I can hangout with friends in July when I head to KL. I really need to hit the clubs one of these days. Been absent from the clubbing scene for way too long.
But most importantly, I'll save most of my money for something greater in July, which I prefer to not disclose it, for fear I might jinx the entire thing. :-)

Now, time to get back to my studies. But stay tune, as I hope to have more interesting stuff to write next time...

Lush solid perfume

According to the website,"Honey I Washed The Kids" Solid Perfume by Lush smells like this:
"If your idea of heaven on earth is walking into a fudge shop, you’ll probably want to smell of Honey, I Washed the Kids all day long. It’s named after our honey toffee scented soap, which has been a best-seller since day one because its fragrance is lip-smackingly delicious. It's vegan, it's got one of the most addictive, creamy scents you can imagine and it's a must have for toffee lovers."

It was a very last minute decision when I dragged the bf all the way to Lush shop in UK. I find the shop and the products rather interesting. Everything is made of organic stuff...see..
they have cute looking cleanser that is made of charcoal, or seaweed, or....would you rather have herbs??
The shop smell fragrant, which most people would find it to be a pain to the nose, but I thought it suited me well. I am a frangrance freak!!
My initial attempt visiting Lush was to purchase the very rave about moisturiser..called "vanishing cream"...but at the price of 15.25pound, I wouldn't mind paying for it if it comes in a tube form. Too bad the idea of sticking my fingers into the product just doesn't sound too hygenic to me.
I knew Lush is like the 'it' thing in UK, and i felt stupid for not buying something out from the shop. So, i conveniently grabbed whatever is the cheapest there. And it happened to be this, the solid perfume.
I wasn't very happy with my purchase at first. Thought a normal designer perfume would do sooo sooo much better.
However, now that I'm back in Malaysia, I find this rather special to own. The smell is different in the sense that it manages to stand out from other commonly used designer perfume. And of course, the smell lasted way way longer than any designer perfume.
Though taking my first sniff at it from the tin, I hated the smell. But I realised it changes to something really sweet and fruity once applied to the skin. I would definitely try out the other choices if given the chance.

Listen to these, original songs!

My very talented sister WROTE these two songs...I am her number one fan!! Yay!

Another head shot?

First of all, I'll like to take this opportunity to shout out in my blog that my MSc result came out few days ago.
Glad to announce here that I pass with commendation = merit.
Really didn't expect that after realising my dissertation lacks substance, and at the rate I snailed myself to the dateline, this must have been GOD's blessing.

So, many friends told me that I really should get another shot of my passport size photo. So many constructive comments. One even told me my previous photo doesn't look like me at all. *wth! that was unedited piece,k*
Someone also told me that, your look is your asset, therefore, please attach your best shot in your resume.
For the sake of my future, I headed out again, this time, I went to a shop I'm familiar with, snapped a few pictures, and the kind lady allowed me to choose whichever pics I want.
So, my final outcome....
ta-dah!!!


( too much bronzer....my face looks so tanned....and I used wrong color on my cheek, coral! totally can't stand out, should have added red blush instead...damn! )

Check this out

If you're a follower of my blog, you should know that before came back, I bought a set of Lize Earle products, cleanser, toner, moisturiser, sunblock, eye cream, smoothing line serum, and eye lotion.
Ever since I came home, I've been a diligent user of these products up untill now, which is more than two weeks already.
And I am so happy with the outcome.
Having nothing to do at home beside burrying my head in books, I have been obsessively checking out my complexion in the mirror. I'm definitely a satisfied user of Liz Earle products.
And, to whoever residing in the UK, you people should really grab a set of their skincare. Awesome products.
And, to whoever NOT residing in the UK, but DO NOT mind the insanely expensive international shipping cost of 15pound,
do check out Liz Earle website:
