Hold on, and be strong.

By xbeanie · November 14, 2009 · 4 Comments · 46 Views

Hold on.

I've been there a thousand times
Felt the rain like a thousand knives
And it hurts
I know it hurts

I've been there like a fighter plane
Trying to fly my way through a hurricane
And it's hard
I know it's hard

Don't be afraid
You'll make it through
Just call out to me and I'll come running to you

[Chorus]
And hold on
Hold on when the current pulls you under
And your heart beats like thunder
Just give me your hand and hold on
Hold on until the storm is over
And I'll be fighting for you
Just give me your hand and hold on

I'll give you hope, I'll give you faith
And if it's dark I'll light the way for you
For you

By your side until the end
Until you're standing tall again
I'm here
I'll always be here

And if the tide sweeps you out to sea
When your strength is gone
And it's hard to believe

And hold on
Hold on when the current pulls you under
And your heart beats like thunder
Just give me your hand and hold on
Hold on until the storm is over
And I'll be fighting for you
Just give me your hand

Hold on

So hold on when the current pulls you under
And your heart beats like thunder
Just give me your hand and hold on
Hold on until the storm is over
And I'll be fighting for you
Just give me your hand and hold on

 

Hope this gives someone strength, because it did, to me (:

Just hang in there.
Everything will be okay in the end. Because if it's not okay, it's not the end. (:

Sigma Makeup? and Babyliss Curling Tongs Spree

By xbeanie · November 6, 2009 · 19 Comments · 122 Views

Hey guys! :D

This is exciting, look what i found!

 

 

Sigma now has their own makeup line! (: How cool is that!

Is anybody here planning to try them out? They do look pretty awesome! (:

 

Anyway, is anybody interested in a Babyliss Pro curling tong spree?

They should be about S$80+ quoted by my supplier, and i would need >12 orders to cap it.

There will be 3 sizes for the curling tongs so you can decide based on how big you'd want your curls to be (:

I'm planning to get the ceramic ones because they dont spoil the hair and are of really good quality! I don't wanna risk my hair on a cheap product so i think it would be really good to invest in a good one.

And i have dealt with the supplier before, and if i hold this spree i will go down personally to their office to collect the goods, and i should be paying on the spot as well, so no worries about being scammed or whatever (: I have bought their flat irons and i've been using it for more than a year now! It is really of high quality and it's cheaper than the prices outside because they wholesale, that's why i'd want to go back to them to buy again! (:

Would anybody be interested? (: Need to test for response first before i open the spree, but i'm really really hoping to get it because i need one myself! xD

Leave a comment below to express interest yeah!

Tag: What's in my essential kit? :D

By xbeanie · November 1, 2009 · 21 Comments · 220 Views

Taking a break from all the crazy notes, so here i am with a (little more interesting) post!

Since i got a plastic box from Daiso the other time, i decided to make it my essential kit, sort of, and put in all the stuff that i reach out for all the time :D

The brushes aren't actually in the kit because i put them together with the rest of the brushes in my mac brush roll, but since i consider them to be my essentials im including them here as well! xD

Let me start with the brushes :D

My essential brushes are definitely the 187 and the 109 (: Since im always just putting on face stuff because i simply have no time to my eyes ):

187 brush:
I used to reach out for this to apply my edm blushes and all because you know how 187 picks up just enough color from loose blushes and all so i don't look like my cheeks are burnt or anything (: Love it for that! But recently since i started using liquid foundation, i've been using this to apply that and it does give an airbrushed look. Except that my skin is so dry that sometimes when i put on foundation it looks like its flaking :( help, anyone?

109 brush:
This brush is awesomeee, i really really like it! I use this for contouring, and sometimes blush, but this is so dense and it feels really soft. :D love it for contouring! Easy to place color below the cheek bone, as well as good to buff it out with. Yay (:

Next up, those INSIDE the box!

So started from the top,

Chanel primer and Mat Lumiere Liquid Foundation:
Did a review here previously (: so i don't have much to elaborate on, heh!

Anna Sui Eyelash Curler:
Got this quite awhile back! It's pretty, and it's pretty good i think, but then again i haven't tried other eyelash curlers? Haha :D Actually got this because the packaging and all is just damn pretty, i love Anna Sui stuff (:

MAC blush in Harmony:
My contour shade! (: Got this during the F&F sale back in june/july-ish, actually wanted Emote? But it's discontinued ): This works good though! I use this all the time! It's not too dark or anything. Would definitely consider repurchasing this, but it doesn't seem to be hitting pan anytime soon xD

Lipsticks:
I don't have many so i just throw them in there HAHA but i lovelovelovelove Madly Creative <3 and i'm actually scared i'll finish using it cause it's LE! ):

EDM Brushes:
I use the Kabuki to buff out blushes or anything, and i use the Flat Top to put on the prep+prime translucent finishing powder, and buff out everything else (: They're so crazily soft and feels super nice on the skin, like um pillow. or something. :D

MAC Studio Sculpt Concealor and Monistat Chafing Gel:
I use them together to prevent caking up of the concealor! The monistat chafing gel really helps to make the concealor glide on smoothly and all (: i like. Anyway i'm only left with the 5g jar for myself after selling all the samples, hahaha. Though i only have to use so little each time that i'm even wondering when i'll be able to finish using it. The Studio Sculpt concealor is creamy and i like it, just that somehow it doesn't seem to be concealing my dark circles completely, maybe just lightening it i guess?

ELF mascara:
Well i don't actually really use this, but i tried it and it's really awesome, doesnt clump and curls my lashes quite nicely (: Also slightly volumizes my lashes, i think i'll be using this after my exams! :D IMHO, i think this is better than the Majolica Majorca mascara that i used to have. Haha.

MAC Prep+Prime Translucent Finishing Powder:
I really really like this! It blurs out fine lines and all, and it definitely 'finishes' the look. I use this after my liquid foundation, so yeah (: I don't think this is a definite 'must-have', it's a really good-to-have product (:

Yay so that sums up my essential kit! (:

So i decided to start this tag:

TAG: What are the top 10 items that you girls reach out for, to form your essential kits?

I tag:

heavenlygorgeous http://heavenlygorgeous.onsugar.com/
everbluec http://everbluec.onsugar.com/

I'm actually not reallyyy that into the dazzleglass but it's so damn pretty right!! I'll probably skip this.

THE LIPSTICK IS SERIOUSLY DAMN PRETTY <3 i like! Been totally eyeing it since i saw the collection BUT THEN since it's permanent i can probably skip on it for now, and get it another time. (:

 

The main point is the NARS blush in Outlaw!! Freaking pretty i really really want :( but i have orgasm/laguna duo on the way and um my mac palette etc, have been spending wayyyy too much :(

BUT Sephora is having the 20% off saleeeee. :( Which justifies me buying it now, because i know im totally still gonna be thinking abt this and then cave in some other time, so might as well get it now right? :D

Haiya, im debating with my conscience. :(

 

Should stop thinking already, will decide soon. Maybe i'll cave in, afterall. AHH.

 

(p.s. Dear Boyfriend, you did not see this, okay? (: )

Review: TBS Japanese Cherry Blossom Body Butter

By xbeanie · October 14, 2009 · 8 Comments · 45 Views

Hello! Decided i should do some reviews because i've havent been doing them for pretty long already!

Anyway i got this body butter from The Body Shop a couple of weeks back, and tadaaaa!

Description on the box:

Delightful skin softening with cherry blossom extract. NORMAL SKIN.

Product: 4.5/5

Smells really good, i loveeeee the scent (which is kinda the reason why i bought it anyway, besides the point that i needed a body moisturizer) :D It's really rich, and it's definitely really darn moisturizing because it's like a really thick whip cream (: My legs used to be damn dry and all and i do see improvements in my skin and it's not as dry as it used to be, so yeah YAY!! :D I even bought a backup for this in case i run out. HAHA but i think it can probably last me for damn long.

Price: 2.5/5

It's $32.90! which is quite expensive i guess? but with the body shop member discount i think it's a 10 or 15% off so i guess you get to save abit on it (: and it's quite a big tub leh! It's 200ml (6.7oz, 192g). so yeah okay la not bad!

Would I recommend this?: Yup! Go get it girls!

Would I repurchase?: Heh i already did :O

Prom Haul (: + suggestions?

By xbeanie · October 10, 2009 · 20 Comments · 130 Views

Hello! Hmm because i'm J2 this year and prom night is scheduled a couple of days after A levels, i had to get my prom dress and accessories right after prelims before mugging all over again. And i actually picked a dress within 1-2h of shopping (at night, like after mugging) haha. And here are the stuff i got over 2 days last last week (i think).

 

So first up my dress! It's really hard to take a picture of the dress and show the details at the same time, so i took the picture from bebe's website to show you guys xD

 

 

Haha pretty? :D I really really like it!  and my hugeeeeee arms dont look so huge in this i think (: so yay! it's really expensive though, it was $299 in stores. I didn't want to get online cause I dont know how long shipping will take, plus it's hard to get a bebe spree, so if i ordered it myself plus the shipping it would be wayyyy more expensive than $299. And i wanted to check the dress too, just in case! So.. yeah.

And next up my accessories! I got earrings from Juicy Couture! (:

 

Yeah so im planning to wear these together on prom night, but, WHAT SHOES? ):

I have a black pair of wedges, something like this:

But not quite exactly like it, the back of the wedge is abit curvier i think, and the front is kind of sharper. Would it match? SIGH omg actually im hoping to somehow find a black with gold heels one, you get what i mean? ):

Ahhhhh suggestions please?

Love you guys to bits,
Jasmine <3
