enhancing your appearance?

Remember last time i used to say that i don't spend much on cosmetics and facial products? well, maybe coz age is catching up, so i need to take care/improve on my appearance.. sigh~

Anyway.. before spending my bb's hard earn cash on some useless products, usually i'd do research first on sephora.. it's quite a useful website.. not only you can do online purchases, you can read reviews and see the average rating of the products too..

If you read my blog long enough or a friend of mine, you'd realize that i don't wear make-up.. but now, i've been experimenting it.. first of all, i started with eye liner.. then i bought mascara.. and ever since i did the wedding photoshoot, i really like the fake lashes >.< Laura Mercier Loose Setting Powder



This translucent loose powder is good to create a "soft-focus" appearance that smoothen fine lines and imperfections as it sets my makeup to make it last longer..

Christian Dior Iconic (mascara) and Addict (lip plumper)



The lip plumper does work! it gives a good shine, moist the lips plus it has a tingling sensation as it's minty :)

As for the mascara, it lengthens the lashes, waterproof and it's not lumpy.. yay!

Shu Uemura Fake Eyelashes


Besides cosmetics, i bought the shu uemura facial cleanser.. coz my face is more to oily, i need something to control the oil on my t-zone.. hence i chose the pink-ish skin purifying high performance cleansing oil fresh.. it's a 2 in 1 cleanser and make up remover.. it removes the most stubborn waterproof make up.. especially the mascara..


I love the color and the bottle.. didn't know it's expensive =.=" luckily my bb didn't complain :p~ the 2 products i bought and charged to the card :-


So far, i think i've purchase most of the cosmetics.. i don't use foundation.. i got my NARS blusher, MAC eyeliner and some no brand eyeshadow.. that's about it i think..

Next, i'd get the Clinique's Redness Solutions Daily Relief Cream and Sun SPF 45 Targeted Protection Stick for my nose.. few years ago, i had sunburn which is quite bad.. my skin on my face peeled and it left me with a red nose.. i think i might have rosacea (chronic condition characterized by facial erythema).. so i hope with these 2 products, it will make my problem better :)

me cosmetics?

Okay okay.. i should've blog about the JGTC which happened recently during the last weekend but i think i should take a break blogging about cars and slot this post in :P hehehe...

Anyways i want to share with you girls what i've bought recently.. actually i got sunburn last sunday.. it's not like a bad thing.. i've always wanted a tan coz i'm too fair! LOL!! ok ok.. i forgot to use sunblock =.=

When jess, remus's gf applied the sunblock on me, it was TOO late.. i looked like a lobster already! grrrrrr... i took a look at her sunblock and it was not the cream type.. it's in a shape of a compact powder! somemore, it's SPF 50! IF you can read korean, check this out :)

There are a few more stuff i bought :-


Dr. Feel Good
is from benefit.. it's a good product to control the excess oil on my face.. it leaves my face smooth and matte :)

As for the eyelash curler, i've read on forum saying it's THE BEST curler ever.. since i do not wear lots of make-up, i want to at least have nice lashes :) hence i bought the curler.. i've yet to learn how to use it properly =.= i'm such a NOOB!!!

Talking about eye lashes, i've bought a few mascara from maybelline, estee lauder and l'oreal but i'm not very satisfy with all of them.. i've thought of buying KATE, kanebo mascara as i've read some good reviews about it.. it's kinda pricey.. so i settle with just buying a fiber mascara from watson.. it doesn't smudge! and the best thing is it can be washed off with just water!

Btw, if anyone of you want to buy the sunblock or any products from skin79 let me know.. jess is selling it for 30% discount on normal price for ALL products! :)

ps: stay tune for my pics of the JGTC ;)

make-up?

Since i'll be upgrading my car from a korean car to a japanese car, i might as well upgrade myself too! so that i can match up with the sexy Z!

The first thing which i've to do, is to make-up!! i don't really want to put heavy make-up everytime i go out.. coz it'd take ages! and i bet my bb would be rolling his eyes.. 1 of the reason why my bb adores me is that i don't wear make-up and he likes natural beauty.. so i don't want to change now and always putting heavy make-up everytime we go out and make him wait for half an hour or so :P

I just want to be as simple as i can! so i only want to do the basics.. oh yea, this is what i bought to get me started!

Skin Food - Bronze Vitamin Shadow



Lancôme - Waterproof Mascara



The box set comes with an eye cream AND make-up remover! :)

So bb, next time i'd take a lil bit longer to get ready.. so be patient, yah? *muacks*
