Random Updates: 10

Yay! I haven't done RANDOM UPDATES POSTS since February (Random Updates: 9 http://withadriyah.blogspot.com/2010/02/random-updates-8.html) So I'm excited to do another one of this. For the people *waves at new subscribers hello** that are new on my blog, my random updates usually consist of no topic posts. It's like a mind vomit. LOL.

I. cant. sleep. :(

I am probably stressed about us moving again next month. Yep. Moving to another apartment. We finally found a new apartment. I'm kind of excited but its stressing because its so hard to pack, unpack and settle to a new place. It's also farther from where I work.

We will be moving at the end of the month to my Parents house and stay there for 10 days because the apartment we are moving to won't be ready til October 11th.

It will be weird living again with my parents :| My mom was going to live with us when we move to our apartment but she changed her mind for some personal reasons so I will just visit her from time to time.


Anyway, I have made 30 beauty reviews already! Hooray!! :P It's located below my blog so if you guys are looking for anything particular that I have reviewed, just look down below my blog and you'll see every products I have reviewed in the past.


Is it because of the gross pictures? LOL!

Beauty Review: Eyeko Polish

FTC: These nail polish are provided for review purposes only. I did not get paid to review these nail polish and my review is only based in my opinion. I, however, joined the Eyeko Ambassador program. Click this link to find out more about it: http://www.eyeko.com/ambassador.html


Eyeko sent me some nail polish to try. They probably found out that lately, I have been hauling some nail polish from O.P.I., Essie to China Glaze. I am so happy I had the opportunity to try Eyeko's Polish which are very cute in my opinion :)

So What is EYEKO?
Information taken from http://www.eyeko.com, Eyeko means LOVE in Japanese. Their products just screams Kawaii to me. Everything is just too cute!




NOTE: My fingers and nails are extremely dry due to constant hand washing (I work in a hospital) so even the creamiest lotion doesn't help with the dryness. Also I am not expert in applying nail polish (I try my best) so I apologize if the swatches you're about to see are not the best.

Tea Rose - Eyeko describes it as "a soft pink cream that is the picture of pastoral elegance"


Punk - Eyeko describes it as "An Eyeko classic back by popular demand! For nails with attitude punk it up with fluro pink – after all “Pink is the only true rock n roll colour” Paul Simonon, The Clash."


Posh - Eyeko describes it as "For ladylike nails this chic taupe shade wins hands down."


Chi Chi - Eyeko describes it as "For instant embellishment layer up Eyeko Chi Chi Polish for intense glitter coverage. Pink glitters suspended in baby pink polish make for the ultimate girlie nail shade."



Vampire - Eyeko describes it as "Dare to wear this lust-worthy glossy black lacquer dripping with blood red shimmer.


Combined "Posh and Chi Chi" Polish ♥♥♥

MY TAKE: It is very cute, very easy to carry since they are small. It is relatively cheap, it's only $5.50 for cuteness like this :P All the above swatches are just one swipe so those little bottle should last you long time. :) My favorites are: Posh Polish and Tea Rose Polish. They are easy to apply and creamy. The Vampire polish is a bit thick and can get streaky. The Chi Chi polish like every glitter polish is hard to remove. They get dry fast too. Eyeko carries varieties of colors for us to choose from and I am currently eyeing the Lilac Polish, Nude Polish, and Vintage Polish :) I am not very fond of the Punk Polish as I am not into neon colors.

Here is a code you can use for A FREE GIFT when ordering at http://www.eyeko.com

CODE: E10135

Who doesn't want free gift? :P Also if you spent $55, you get FREE SHIPPING.

MAC Venomous Villains

The last MAC Collection that I got excited about was the Hello Kitty Collection. I went gaga over it, and now another collection has wowed me once again! :D

MAC VENOMOUS VILLAINS
I have called different MAC Pro stores around me and no one is having an unveiling party :( I was so sad. One of the SA then told me I could go to the one in Riverside which is the Tyler mall because you can start pre-ordering the products. You can also play with them so you'll know what colors suits you or what they look like in person.










 Sorry for the crappy swatches. I was in a hurry swatching stuff because it was getting crowded 



The first one that caught my attention is the "Bite of An Apple" blush from the Evil Queen Collection (my favorite collection from the VV). It's a matte finish and its very pretty! I ordered a back up of this one too because the SA told me that they are almost out of this blush and is worried they won't have enough for the launch party.


"Strange Potion" lipglass is very sheer and kind of like pink or light coral color. It's nice if you like nude-pink color.


"Hot House" Lipglass is really pretty if you like berry kind of like color. It's buildable if you want a deeper berry color :)


"Heartless" lipstick is so easy to apply. It's not streaky at all. I love it! It's like an orangey-red.


"Wicked Ways" lipglass is also pretty if you like red lips :)

"Violetta" lipstick is a fucshia-violet color. It's a PRO color that's why I didn't get it. I could always exchange my 6 empties and get this shade :)


"Darkly My Dear" blush is nice for contouring. If you have emote blush, I think you can skip this because they're pretty similar.


"Revenge is sweet" lipglass is very nice also as its very pigmented. One of my favorite lipglass from the VV collection.


This is me wearing Violette lipstick with Revenge is sweet lipglass.






...and after lots of swatching, I got tired and went to the LOVESAC store to rest. Hahaha! We are actually planning on getting a LOVESAC once we are settled into our new place.

So, yes, I have pre-ordered my Venomous Villains already and here are the items I got:
✴Heartless lipstick
✴De-vil eyeshadow
✴Her own device beauty powder
✴Darkly My dear blush
✴Toxic Tale lipstick
✴Strange potion lipglass
✴Hot house lipglass
✴Bite of an apple blush
✴Revenge is sweet lipglass
✴Briar rose beauty powder

What saddens me is that they are NOT accepting 6 empties for VV eyeshadow/lipstick/lipglass. :( I remember I did exchange like 12 empties for two Hello Kitty lipstick before :(

Hope you like my update. :) See you on the next post..

San Diego Trip: Day 2!


....continuation!

Day 02 of our weekend in San Diego. We decided to go to Seaworld as I have never been there. Yay for first time! Yeah pop my Seaworld cherry :P

Decided to wear my Hello Kitty Tanktop. Shamu, Hello kitty is ready to meet you! :P
Hello Kitty tank top from F21




On our way, I was taking pictures of the beach. Such a beautiful view :D I really want to go back there.


Seaworld! There we met up with friends :) We all decided to buy Sesame Street T-shirts for fun! Hahaha! We look like kids in a field trip.
Jez, Adrian, Iyah, Ren, Cha, Niegel

Hubby - pouting! Hahahaa!!!



We went to watch the Blue Horizon. :)


Dolphins and Whales! :) They're just too cute!





Then, we also went to see the Freshwater Aquarium :D


The one on the right are Piranhas :P



..and these fishes are the same. They are transparent without the light. Pretty cool!


We also went to watch the Sea Lions. I love Sea Lions, they are just too cute!!! :D






...and of course gotta watch Shamu! He is huge!!! :)


Then rode this big thing. Forgot what its called. It's so high! :D I love the view. Also can't believe that you have to pay $4 just to ride this! I thought rides should be free since you paid the entrance fee already.


...we also rode the Gondola/tram ride. Such a nice airy ride :) Also not free. lol.



Then we went to ride those water rides (and they're free!) and we got so soaked! I was walking with wet clothes the whole day. I was so cold! Hahaha!

Overall, it was such a fun day! :) The entrance fee is not that bad either. $49/person. For all the fun we had together = PRICELESS!

...to be continued!

I hope you guys are not bored reading my Vacation updates. I promise to get back to my "make up/beauty posts" soon :) Thank you guys for always being there for me, for always commenting, for always showing me your support :)

Also for the new followers, drop by and say HI! I don't bite.. well maybe just a little. Haha! Just kidding :) Hope you guys are having a nice weekend. See you all in the next update!
