MANLY 40 COLOR EYESHADOW and 10 BLUSH PALETTE

I received this palette from kkcenterhk, and like the other palette that I got from them, this one came with so much bubble wrap. Expect that your palette will come in one piece without the worries of breaking any eyeshadow or blush.

The colors are so bright! The blushes are so pretty! :) I like the highlighters too ^_^

PROS: It looks very sleek! The palette is not heavy so you can carry it around and can use to re-touch if you want to. It has all the colors you need in making different looks. So versatile. It's so pigmented and bright! Just look at the swatches! :) I like that it has different blushes to choose from, and also highlighters. I also like that it has a contour blush to use for contouring.

CONS: The blushes are sheer, buildable but sheer. I expected them to be more pigmented. The shipping can take long depending on where you located. No mirror - for those who likes mirror on their palettes.

OVERALL: I like this palette. It has all the colors you need to make different looks, it has blush and contour powder, it also has highlighter to highlight your key areas to make you look more awake :)

I use the bronze color all over my eye to make this look and the dark eyeshadow to line my eyes :)

A Day with Angelique ♥

On my day off, Angelique and I decided to meet and go to OC for some girl time bonding :) She is one of the girls whom I met on blogger and become one of my RL friends. I love her lots! She is nice and super sweet! =(^_^)= We don't live that far from each other but our schedules suck so we don't get to see each other often :(

“We didn’t realize we were making memories, we just knew we were having fun.”

First, we went to Santouka for some Ramen! :D I have been craving for ramen for who know how long. Hahah :) I was happy to eat! Hahah :)

Angelique got me some green tea to try. Tasted good! Matcha Milk Tea :P

Ahhh!! My Salt Ramen.. it's so yummy!!! :D *drools*

She ordered Spicy Miso :)

Then we went to Mitsuwa to look at their goodies! :D

I bought another Lucido-L Hair Treatment Spray because I was running out. :) and some watering kissmint! Hahah! What? I was curious! LOL! I never heard of kissmint before :P Interesting...

I also bought the ViVi Magazine :) I love ViVi. I love the girl on cover. What's her name? Lena? She's so pretty!!! :D

Ooohhhh!! lol! Summer!!

Ahhhh!! Hello Kitty!!! :D

After that, we went to Imperial Beauty Supply to get some nail polish. We didn't know that OPI Pirates of the Caribbean was out already. So we got some. :D

I went nail polish happy! Bought some for Myself, my Mom and May :) Yay!! I gave up nail polish shopping for Lent. For 40 days! Hahah :) But I feel like I didn't go overboard because some aren't for me, and I'm proud of that! Hahaha :)

The famous silver shatter!! *squeals**

Nail defense so my nails would stop breaking already!

Then we went to Tastea where we got some Avocado Shake! "It's so yummy, it tastes like cotton candy" hahah :) We were gonna go to Cafe di Vang3 but we chickened out. Saw some boobies. what what! Hahaha :P Next time for sure! LOL!

After Tastea, we went to the Block to just walk around.. We went to Victoria Secret and Angelique enabled me to get the famous 24K eyeshadow! Ahhh!! It's such a gorgeous color!! I couldn't resist!! Good thing they still have 3 left! We got the last 2! :P

I love sparkly things! ^_^

...and after the Block, we wanted to get some coffee so we drove around looking for Starbucks (because we don't wanna go to Starbucks at the block. lol) and freaking GPS took us to a non-existent Starbucks! haha! Then we tried again, and GPS brought us to Anaheim Marriot. No, I'm not trying to check her in.. hahaha! It's so funny though! There's a Starbucks inside the hotel so that's where we went. Then after the jokes and stories, we drove back home :)

I had so much fun Angelique!!!! :D

I miss blogging!! Hope I'll be able to blog more this coming May :) Next post would be my beauty review for: MANLY PALETTE! :)

I want!

Hello Everyone, just some random post here XP I'm not working 16 hours today so I had time to surf the net and just feed my eyes with all the yummy hello kitty stuff at sanrio and sephora. Yeah I think I'm kitty-obsessed now! Hahaha :) I haven't really comment back and I apologized for that :( If you want immediate response, please don't hesitate to email :)

Anyway, I was browsing at Sephora when I saw this traincase! OMGGGG!! I immediately fell in love and decided that I want it.. but its uber pricey X( I'll just add this to my wish list and maybe someday I can have it! Hahaha! It's sooooo pretty!!!! :D 

*wish* *wish* *wish* Can somebody sprinkle pixie dust on my wish so it would come true? Hahah ♥

Hair Care Routine

Finally! A Post!! I have been really really busy! :( Work has been taking all my time, and when I'm off, I feel like I just want to relax. Haven't really been hauling make up or skin care so I haven't found the motivation to blog. *sigh*

Anyway, as promised, here is my hair care routine :)

I stopped using heat tools ~ blow dry, flat iron or curling iron for 5 months now, and its been doing wonders to my hair. I just let it air dry after I take a shower.

First, I want to show you my shampoo and conditioner. I have been using Essentials (orange one) for few months now and I started using the Essentials Nuance Airy (pink one) last month and I just love it! My hair feels light and it looks extra shiny (which I feel sometimes that it looks oily).

Then I use Hair Spa Treatment (i have 3 different brands that I use) once a month just to keep my hair healthy. When I use this, I apply Saran Wrap after then I rinse it after 30 minutes.

Everyday, after I take a shower, I spray Lucido-L Hair Treatment all over my hair. Sometimes I even spray this before I go to sleep.

As of now, I have not trimmed my hair. I don't want to as I don't see any split ends yet so I'm leaving it alone for now. I'm happy because my hair got so long like this. I'm happy of how my hair looks now.

That's how I take care of my hair. :)

Here are some few stuff I acquire.. Just a super mini haul :)

Necklace by F21. Such a pretty pearl/beaded necklace :D

Ponds.. my favorite cleanser as of now.

Black high heels! Always a necessity :)

I will be working so much again this week. Hopefully everything will pay off later :) I miss you all!!! I haven't even blog-hopped :( or even comment back and I'm so sorry :( love you all!!!
