Mission: Find That Topshop Shoe.

By xbeanie · July 30, 2009 · 8 Comments · 39 Views

FOUND IT FOUND IT! :)

Went to ION again on Monday to find it and yayyy i think i took the last pair of size40 at Topshop :) didnt take it in the bag when its clean so here's a picture of it (i took this during Physics lesson today xD) HAHA.

hahah happiness much? :D BUT RIGHT, the back of my heel hurts, especially the back of my left. i put plaster there everyday now o_o hahaha. zz. like how they say, new shoes always 'bites' you :O

i've been wearing this pair of asics shoes for like almost a year i think, oh god.

On a slightly on-the-makeup-topic note, my face primer is supposedly on its way! :) the spree organiser mailed it out on Tuesday, and usually i thought it takes a working day to receive it (at least it was like that for my past 793482425 sprees) and im slightlyyyy worried. But im sure it'll come right? ><

XOXO<3

What's your ONE regret?

Well i've had the same one as Sarah, making my mom worried and upset because i was so rebellious and i didnt care much about her, but i'm making up for that right now :) I love my mom <3. i wont say i regret it THAT much though, cuz at least it was only for a couple of months i think..

Something i'm regretting right now is that i havent been able to stay close to a few of my friends, whom i've been so close to in the past few years. I'd say the transition from sec sch to jc really is life-changing, friends come and go through the years.. and i really do miss some of them ): thats my one regret!

~~ though i must say im really glad and thankful for my pri sch besties and my besties from sec1, they're those you would be friends with for life! ;D

since sarah has tagged so many people and almost everyone, i'll tag whoever on my subscriber list okies! :)

XOXO.

By xbeanie · July 26, 2009 · 6 Comments · 39 Views

Spotted this Etude House at Plaza Singapura on Thursday! :D

Everything was PEEEENK and pretty! :) didnt get to check out all the products, though i did walk through and glanced past everything. Only got the urge to get this nail polish, which was sold for $2.50 only and the colors were so pretty :( didnt do it, anyway xD so proud of myself!

Okay yeah anyway it looks like alotttt of stuff, and OH yeah i was considering getting the mascara as well, but i decided not to. My Majolica Majorca one has been sitting and rotting its ass off since forever. >< whoops.

Do go check it out if you're nearby! i think their stuff are pretty affordable :)

XOXO<3

Haul: ION Sephora!

By xbeanie · July 25, 2009 · 17 Comments · 80 Views

Hey guys! :D Checked out the new ION after school a few days back, and the obvious Must-Go Destination is Sephora! (who could ever miss this!)

Got some stuff xD xD YAY.

I'll start with the Too Faced Shadow Insurance! (:

I've been lemming for the Urban Decay Primer Potion, and i actually already decided to get it soon but then I SAW THIS! :D tried it on and put some tester eyeshadow over it and saw the huge difference o_o hahaha so i decided to get it! Did see some people's FOTD or sth who used this as well, so i thought it should be pretty good! :D it's retailed for S$28 in Sephora, and if i were to get UDPP it'd probably be slightly over 30 including shipping and stuff. so yeah. Got home and googled comparisons and actually realised that alot of people would much prefer this over UDPP, mainly because of the packaging. (this one is like a toothpaste tube, much easier to get out all the product as compared to UDPP) and they say that it works the same as UDPP, some say it goes on alot smoother than UDPP, etc etc. So i definitely wont be regretting this because i tried it and it's really good! :D:D

Next! 2 MAC lipsticks. haha they're my FIRST EVER EVER mac lipsticks!!! and i love the colors xD

Sweetie Lipstick (Lustre)

Swatched this at the counter and it looked rly pretty! (: like a very sweet pink and yeah! <3

Madly Creative Lipstick (LE) (frost)

This is from the Colorcraft collection! the bf chose this for me :D heh. He bought both lipsticks for me after i left to go home, and i told him i wanted him to choose one for me so he swatched a few and decided on this (with the help of the MA, but i'll pretend i dont know about it) xD LOVE THIS COLOR <3 it looks really damn pretty on the lips!! ahh. i'd say i prefer this over the sweetie lipstick, tbh. (:

YAY SWATCHES!

Without flash:

With flash:

Sorry for the lousy pics. I hate it how the camera ALWAYS destroys colors, swatches especially! ): pretty color take pictures already then not pretty anymore ): argh!

Hmm actually i went down to stage to check out the stuff since Sarah posted that there's the 20% off sale at stage cosmetics.. but i didnt get anything, heh. less money spent, yay!! go me! (:
(actually i wanted to get the lipsticks la, but then i decided that it would only satisfy me for awhile before i then crave for mac lipsticks again, so might as well just get the mac ones already right! i wasnt that into the stage ones in the first place..)

Have you guys gone down to ION yet? Gotten anything? :D

XOXO<3

Review: MAC 109 & 187 Brushes

By xbeanie · July 23, 2009 · 2 Comments · 24 Views

Looong overdue post! xD

Will start off with the 109 brush! Here's how it looks:

Product: 5/5
Its soft and dense enough for contour :D I'm using it as a contour brush but the MA told me i can use it as blush brush too! :D multipurpose yo! hahah and i thought this is a really good contour brush, and i can use its edges to contour my nose as well :D yay!

Price: 4/5
Price was uh-okay. it was $67 if i remember correctly! but then since its a brush, i guess it will last pretty long yeah. (though obviously we all wish it was cheaper xD but its mac, what to do?)

 

Next on 187! <3

Been hoping to get this one for sooooo freaking long! Here's a pic:

(though you guys have probably a REALLY good idea of how it looks like, its such a highly raved brush! and that may still be an understatement xD)

YAY so finally got it during the major haul!

Product: 6/5!
The fibers are super super soft, feels damn good on the skin. I actually randomly took it out the other day and just kept brushing it against my cheek for nothing, just felt like it xD HAHA. (im weird yes i know) This brush is really good especially for applying loose powders, or intense colors since it picks up just the right amount and gives you a flawless look! :D i heard this is super good for liquid foundation but since i dont use liquid foundation i cant really comment on this aspect..

Price: 5/5
Because i think its worth it :D i didnt wanna get the dupes because i heard they dont really last, like the bristles start to fall out and stuff.. or like the white fibers are too sparse or something.. didnt wanna waste unnecessarily on things that dont last! So yeah (:

Yupppp so thats it for the face brush reviews! :D havent really used the 226 or 208 yet so hmm i'll do the reviews next time alright! ^^

XOXO<3

By xbeanie · July 21, 2009 · 13 Comments · 64 Views

Hello just wanna share something about the brush cleanser! I absolutely loveeeeeee this thing, it gets my brushes clean in less than 3 mins, really awesome stuff!! hmm maybe i'll do a photo step-by-step thing but its so easy so im pretty sure you'll get it (:

Product: 5/5
Because it gets my brushes really clean and dries in a jiffy because its alcohol based (:

Packaging: 5/5
Just because its pink, and i think so xD

Price: 5/5!
It's pretty cheap, you dont have to use alot of it to get your brushes clean! $18 for the whole bottle (: AND its b2m-able!

Yay okay!

----------------------

 

ION SEPHORA IS OPEN OMG i need to head down there sometime soon.

AHHHH! Really wanna go see stuff there since its apparently the 2nd largest sephora.? hahah ahh. xD BUT MAC's new collection is coming in about a months' time and im definitely going to get some stuff from there, NEED TO CONTROL. someone please control me ): hahaha sigh but why dont they have Urban Decay and NARS D: rawrrrzxzx ): was really hoping they'd have UD at the least..... since i really wanna get their udpp but i dont really feel like getting it from a spree (yet).. might be soon! because i've heard so many people raving it and i cant wait to try it out!

~~ Anyway! was trying to learn how to put eyeshadow on just now, and it kinda...... looked a little weird and messy ): sigh i really need to learn properly someday.. but the 'free time' wouldnt exist until after A levels ): argh! and I REALLY LOVE BLUES <3 hahaha they're so pretty! (i think thats the bulk of the reason why i bought the Sea and Sky MES..) heh. So i tried on the MES just now and i really love the color! omggg <3

Okay yeah rant over! <3

XOXO.

p.s. linnera i'll do the reviews for the rest of the brushes soon okay! xD

Reviews: MAC 138 & Brush Roll

By xbeanie · July 19, 2009 · 7 Comments · 329 Views

As requested, (:

MAC 138 Brush

Product: 5/5!

This brush is superrrrrr soft and fluffy, i love the feeling of it against my face cuz its really really soft and im not kidding! My favourite brush out of all 5 that i've just gotten, and i use it for highlights/contour. I'm thinking its a little too big for contour though, its alot larger than what i initially expected. Here's a rough gauge, against my thumb:

Anyway shall just add in the description of the brush from MAC's website:

A domed brush of ultra-soft, natural fibres featuring a slightly pointed tip with round chiselled sides. Specially designed to streamline and enhance the makeup technique of sculpting and shaping. Use chiselled side for contour shaping of facial planes; the pointed tip for applying and blending powder blush, highlighter or face powder.

Price: 4/5

Okay, its pretty expensive i must say. $97 for this brush over the counter in Singapore, but i love this brush so yeah i guess its alright, and not like you have to keep buying it? I should think it would last really long if you do take proper care (:

 

Next up!

MAC Brush Roll

Again, from the webite:

A brush roll of black matte worsted nylon/wool blended fabric featuring satin black French binding with easy and efficient self-fastening closure.

Pictures first! (:

Classy black case, with velcro closure. Matte surface.

This brush roll can fit 18 brushes, and they're in two rows. (i put the brushes in alternate rows to show it xD) Quite smart actually, so it doesnt have to be too long, heh.

The cover over the brushes hahah (:

So on the right side of the brush roll there's this compartment with a zip!

Here:

And on the left....

Yup so these are extra compartments to put more stuff, especially smaller items(:

It's really handy and everything and i absolutely love the casing, okay and maybe its because im quite brand conscious also so the MAC word appeals to me alot. (okay, who doesnt it appeal to?) It really looks damn professional and everything and yeah starts off my mac brush collection! :D

Price is $85, but then im pretty sure this can last forever unless you run out of space. In that case i might just get another. HAHA :D But actually the slots can fit a couple of eye brushes, since the eye brushes' handles are really not that fat, pretty skinny in fact. So one slot could hold a couple of eye brushes, which means it should be able to keep alot of brushes! (: the face brushes that i have, especially the 138 and 187 had to take up the entire slot because they're so fat xD

Okay yup so thats it for my review of these 2 items! :D 

XOXO <3

P.S. if you were wondering why my photos of the brush roll look cartoony or photoshopped and the brush roll looks really graphic in most of the photos, its because of its material and i used flash for most of it, just except the 1st pic and the one that shows the veil over the brushes.. cause i couldnt take a proper photo without flash, it just appeared black when i did. So yeah, it just turns out like that when i use flash, so its the material, i didnt edit it much besides the watermarks! (:

Mini Haul (Thursday) + Reviews (St Ives products)

By xbeanie · July 17, 2009 · 12 Comments · 65 Views

Hello so here's the mini haul on Thursday when i was at Taka/Wisma.

Got these from Takashimaya Watsons, since i heard so many good reviews on the St Ives. The Sunsilk conditioner was just cuz i needed one, hahah.

Okay since i tried the scrub and the mask yesterday i really really liked them!! :D they're so much more expensive in Watsons though, compared to like Mustafa (since you guys said you all got it for 5.50. i got mine for 8.50! but thats cuz i was too lazy to go down to ppls park or mustafa heh)

Apricot Scrub (Blemish and Blackhead Control)

Product: 4/5!

Loveeee this stuff. Made my skin so much smoother and i can feel it even after one use!!! :D definitely would recommend this especially if you have blackheads! haha. Hate the smell though, and its pretty rough!

Price: 5/5!

Its really cheap considering one tube can probably last quite awhile.. and plus its really good! (though i dont rly like the smell....) It's less than 10 bucks for this!

 

Hydroxy Masque

Product: 5/5

Love this stuff too, this makes me feel so much more refreshed and like my skin is clear and clean and soft and smooth! HEH. Plus its really fun to peel off xD

Price: 5/5

Its the same price as the scrub i think, which is really cheap considering its quality and everything (:

 

Definitely would recommend these to you guys (even though you probably have seen so many reviews already, heh) and i would purchase this again when mine runs out!! :D:D

----------------

So anyway since the Isetan had the 10% off everything sale for 2 days from 15-16 July, we got it for $27 (original price was $30).

"FOR BLOTTING PAPER?!" - you may think. but yeah i really like it because of the packaging and stuff! looks DAMN pretty and everything. hehhhh. Plus refills will be cheaper! :D

So here it is!

<333 AHHH i love this. xD

Hehhh anyway major haul post next okay!!! Am really tired tonight so i guess i'll post that tmr/Sunday! (:

XOXO.

Review: MAC Lipglass (Dreamy)

By xbeanie · July 14, 2009 · 11 Comments · 226 Views

Hey guys im back with another review! :D

As i said a couple of days back, i've got my MAC Lipglass in Dreamy from the F&F sale and its hereeee (:

Yay! I bought this after googling swatches online, and i was deciding between this or Nymphette. Decided to get this in the end! :D

Okay yeah here's some swatches:

without flash,

with flash:

Packaging: 4/5

Okay la, its pretty boring. AND i think it looks short. HAHA. Hmm im thinking if i should target the Dazzleglasses though, THEY'RE SO PRETTY AHH.

Product: 5/5

 

Color is a very sweet pink, goes on pretty sheer, but less so than my Tricolor Lipglasses. (: Love the color! It's really sweet. HEH yay. Also since i dont really like colors that go on too heavy on my lips, the sheerness is really good, and i feel that it plumps up my lips, kinda xD Okay yeah but then! its pretty sticky.. i mean i dont feel it on my lips and i dont mind that much, but i can feel it when i swatched it on my hand.. =/ hahah.

Price: 4/5

The price is okay! I mean duh, i got it from the F&F sale hahaha so i got it for like 18 or something about there. :D The usual price over the counter in Singapore is $28, and i'd love to get more colors, only if my wallet would allow it though.. but i doubt i'd be getting more, at least not anytime soon. (or maybe i'd try the dazzleglasses heheheheh)

Yup alright hope you guys enjoyed this! (:

So what is YOUR favourite lipglass/dazzleglass/lipstick? (:
