Everyday Make Up

/



Hey girls!!!! I'm finally up with a make up tutorial. Supa amateur, so pardon that bad quality. :(

♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

As mentioned in the video, I don't put on any face make up unless I'm attending a photoshoot or event and have to take loads of pictures... 

Unfortunately, naturally good looking girls, won't look good under the flash most of the time. Cos that's when your dark eye circles and all will be shown clearly! -_- 

Nevertheless, if you've never started applying make up DONT' START! I mean, if you look good naturally then don't bother la. Natural beauty's still definitely the best. 

Apparently I think I look like a zombie-like potato face and got too addicted after using make up for a while. Bad habit that's really hard to kick off.

On a brighter note, most of my items are all easily attainable because you see them everywhere and it's supa cheap. I'm not really anal about the make up products I use... And I can't be bothered with brushes!!!

Too troublesome. I can already take up to an hour if I take my time to do my make up at a snail's pace. So... HAHAHA.

♡♡♡♡♡♡♡




I've been using this eyeshadow for quite a while now and I really like it a lot!!!! Got it from M'sia..... I'm not sure if they still have it in stores (Shit I just contradicted myself from what I said above...)

It's around RM 20 cos I was cheapskate and got it from a warehouse sale. Hahaha.

You can read up more on its review here:


Honest opinion on this eyeliner... Wouldn't consider using it other than to redefine my eyelids!!! Cos it's pretty hard to draw on... But to give it some credit, it doesn't smudge ;)




I would say this gel pencil eyeliner is really good because it's just way tooooooo easy to use. But I've really watery eyes, so it's not a good idea if you have them too... Cos it isn't water proof!!!! 

And if I use it to line my waterline... I've to constantly touch up on it and wipe of the stains, otherwise I've to bear the repercussions of looking like a panda at the end of the day.

~SGD$9
Best liquid eyeliner I have so far! I'll usually use this if I'm applying eyeliner. My gf got it from Korea and it was cheaper.

 It's waterproof, long-lasting, it dries up quickly and has a really smooth texture. Yet the best part is, it can be cleaned off easily.

I think it's around 12000 won inclusive of shipping fee which is about SGD$15. I'm not really sure how much is it in stores though... 

I've quite a number of mascaras, e.g Estee Lauder, Anna sui, Elianto and some other Japanese brands... But I'll usually go Maybelline's cos it seriously does lengthens your eyelash if that's what you're hoping to achieve.

This mascara below is by far one of the best which really boosts the length and thickness!!! Plus it doesn't smudge. 







Check out some of the reviews I found online if you're skeptical about what I've said and you'll know I'm not lying.


 Anyway I was quite lazy, as usual... Otherwise I'd really suggest that you should use an eyelash primer before you apply your mascara, which:

- Care mascara
- Makes lashes silkier
- Strengthens lashes
- Improves lash resistance
- Prevents lashes becoming brittle

For my bottom lash, I usually prefer to use the hello kitty cat eye volume express mascara!

Not only does it have a comb applicator which is different from many mascaras you usually see, it's also built in a curved doubled sided comb instead of the normal mini comb. 

Which works well for my bottom lash because I want every single lash to receive equal amount of mascara!! :)

However, I wouldn't use this for my upper lash as it doesn't really help to build up volume other than lengthening it...
Got this as a gift and if I'm not wrong it's around SGD$25 in stores! You can find cheaper ones online on eBay hahaha, just saying.

 Lastly, my hello kitty tinted lip balm... I. love. this. beyond. words.

It's just so good, first it's tinted - so it's not as "heavy" compared to lipsticks and it functions the same as normal lip balms which leaves a soft touch to your lips completing your look. 

You can use it on days where you find your lips cracking or looking really pale...

Oh and it smells good too. HAHAHA. Mine's the strawberry one.
Got this as a gift as well. Guess it's around $13-$15. 


Personally, I'm quite a hardcore user of Etude house products cos my aunt's always buying them for me. & If you're wondering, I actually use the Precious Mineral BB Cream Bright Fit and Nymph Aura Volumer when I put on face make up.

+ most of my masks and eye masks are from etude house too! Hehe.

As for skin care, I'd do a separate entry another time!!!

Alright, that concludes today's post! Hope you guys learned something! -kisses-

I-Babydoll Review

/

So as most of you know I'm kind of an obsessed user over contact lenses. Why? I don't know, I just feel that once you start putting them on for more than a month, you'll naturally feel awkward and naked without it.

Plus like they all say, our eyes are like the windows to the soul; it's prolly one of the most outstanding features of a human. Who doesn't want alluring, puppy-like eyes? I'll die to have them naturally if I had a choice... Especially coloured ones... 

I'm not really a fan of the really coloured-coloured ones, I usually go for the black or brown ones if you noticed. The colour of my eye is a darker tone of brown and it doesn't really look flattering when it comes to really vibrant colours... I just look like a freakin ugly alien.

And after using it over a period of time, trying all sorts of colours and designs etc... I kinda realize what are suitable for me and which will simply make me look like a complete idiot.

Personally, I'd usually get those with a thinner limbal ring because it looks more natural, instead of those which are too black and thick cos it will make your eyes look really fake... (I mean yea, it's already fake but it's gonna worsen it........ -_-)

Compared to a lot more lenses out there in stores, the in lenses are like Geo and some other korean-manufactured brands nowadays. Hahaha. However, due to the amount of fake lenses arising, many stores stopped selling them...

And a lot of you have been asking me where I got mine... So I'm here to introduce you an online shop that you might already heard of!


They have 7 different brand of lenses currently. In different diameters, colours, designs... A whole wide variety for you to choose from!

And these are some that I recommend:

• Diamond 3 tone



• Fynale




• Prodigurls (by Fynale)






• Luxury Babe


Tried the blue one before.


Got the one in purple!


I got the next two in black! :)



The brown one on the bottom is the one that I wore in my recent pictures.



If you like something that really make your eyes sparkle, try this series!



• Ifairy

***Note: Trust me the below pictures are definitely more accurate in terms of how the results will be compared to the normal ones like (click here)

Wouldn't say that they edit all those pictures, but sometimes due to the different the exposure of the pictures, and different coloured eyes etc... They look good and you'll look...


HAHAHA apologies if you just had your meal.

Cos it happend to me A LOT of times. and I didn't trust the pictures anymore. So I went on youtube or google to find more genuine reviews of these lenses.

Like




The bottom two are examples of really bright colours which I can NEVER pull off.... Unless you've really light brown eyes (as an asian) and only if you tried them before and it really compliments you, otherwise don't take the risk!!!! Not advisable...

I'm helping you to save your money.... Hehe.




• Kimchi

Another few that helps to give that "teary-eye" effect :)





• Super Barbie

These are some very popular and commonly used series!!! :)




So if you're hoping to enlarge your iris/pupil... These lenses are some temporary solutions. HAHAHA. Plus they come with lense free casings and are nicely wrapped up with bubblewrap!!!! So you don't have to fret if the glasses might crack half way and whatsoever.



Kudos to Ibabydoll!

And please, as I said your eyes are really important so do take good care of them! Cleanse them properly and throw it away when the expiry date comes or when you feel that it's starting to irritate your eyes. Don't keep them even though it's hurting like hell just because you wanna save money....

 Been there, done that... And it wasn't a good experience.

When it comes to your eyes, MONEY SHOULDN'T COME IN THE WAY. At least that's what I feel... Unless you don't mind living in a world of darkness for the rest of your life.

Threw my old ones away and changed it with my brand new lenses which ibabydoll gave me! Happppyyy!

People always have something to say, it's like whether you do something right or wrong you can't avoid being judged. They expect you to be perfect, they expect you to be nice all the time. But think about it yourself, do you think you're capable of being flawless?

"Make love, not war."

Personally I always felt that this simple line can make a whole wide difference to the world if everyone are able to preach it. Well, I don't know if you guys realize this... But it's becoming quite an annoyance to me since lately on how easily things can go all viral online.

Indeed having social sites like Twitter, Facebook and all really helped many of us to catch up with each other, stay connected blablabla. but.....


Don't worry I'm not gonna conduct a lesson here on globalization, just read on. LOL.

Is it only me or the internet is really causing a lot of shit to our daily lives?


Nah neither is this entry gonna be talking about people being judgmental and all again. LOL, I ran out of words to talk about it. Cos humans are all wired in a way that we judge every single day.

To continue from where I stopped above... I mean yea, it's not like without the internet everyone's gonna be refrained from judging, but what bugs me most is being judged and hated for the stupidest things.

It's like, people can easily hate on you just bcos of things you post online. Be it a tweet, a vlog, a blog entry, a picture so on and so forth.

I bet someone out there, reading this half way must already be having a thought, somewhat like "This bitch is bullshitting again." and might have closed my page by now.

Like....

Forget about that, now comes the part that links back to the title of this entry. I often come across truck loads of tweets on random strangers (Notice why I used the term strangers) going like "Why the f*ck are people like Deekosh, Naomi Neo, Noah Yap etc getting so much attention, why do they get so many special deals when they are just normal human like us?"

Ok before I kick off, I just wanna emphasize that I'm not trying to offend anyone, and if you're offended I'm sorry in advance.

I just get really fed up when I see tweets like that.


Yes, I do agree we are all normal human beings and I do believe in equality. I get where some of you are coming from, like "All of us are the same, what makes them so special?"


 But c'mon people, all of us bloggers, vloggers etc PUT IN A LOT OF EFFORT before we got to where we are today. If you think it's unfair for you, then I think it's really undeserving when some of you get all agitated on why the hell we are "specially treated." 

Most of the bloggers/vloggers who I know of are still studying, yet we fork out the time and effort to write posts and make videos to "entertain" you all, (If you're not entertained by me, then... too bad. -_-) 

I'm not trying to act like a big shot here or in any way bring out anything such as popularity and shit, nothing related to that. It's just that I feel we should be....

GIVEN SOME CREDIT. 

We don't just get sponsors and stuff for nothing. Especially bloggers. To name some, maybe like Xiaxue, Ohsofickle, Bongqiuqiu, Pxdkitty, Speishi, Marxmae, Prettyfrowns....

Despite how we're already struggling with work or school, we still have to fret on things like; what to write for our next blog entry, what can we do to make you guys happy and all... I can bravely say most of us are pretty conscientious when it comes to our work.

 Nooooo, not as if I'm making it sound like it's a chore to blog, I would say it's a labour of love. But don't you think we should be acknowledged for our endeavor?

It's really disheartening to see how some of you make us sound as though we're not even a penny-worth; like we got all these overnight without working for it. It's like working so hard for everything and no one even recognizes your effort at all.

I started blogging like some any other teen out there since 2009, and got a little more serious about my "job" some time last year. I've been sharing things based on my experiences on Twitter, Facebook and my blog of course. 

And if you're wondering why, it started off simply bcos I wanted people to be able to relate, I genuinely wish that I could share my experiences and advices to people out there who needs it. Of course as time passed, I wouldn't deny it's partially due to attention as well.

But isn't that the main goal for every blogger I suppose? To achieve attention? That's how we earn a living in a way isn't it? If we don't get attention how are gonna survive in the blogsphere?

If you're gonna say that I don't even update my blog really often, at least I take the effort to constantly update my Fb and Twitter right?

& Hey, just cos I get a little more likes for my pictures on Facebook than some people, it doesn't mean that I gained all these just due to my appearance alone. In fact, I'm not even close to gorgeous, I feel really typical. (I know you're gonna judge again...)


Whatever. No one said common-looking girls can't camwhore right? That's just being utterly ridiculous, still wondering who came out with this logic whereby one must think that they are good-looking otherwise they can't take loads of pictures. -_-

FYI, I didn't started on Facebook posting just pictures of myself.



And look at the likes back then, what? Less than a 100 dude. Open your eyes wideeeeeee.

So after typing so much crap, I just want you guys to know that, there can be a million good looking people out there, but it doesn't mean that appearance is everything. 

& For god's sake, don't rake up the part on models. Even so, money don't just come to them as easy as you think, they've to pose for hours in all kinds of weather... And if you watch American next top models etc, they've to go thru a lot of hell training to attain those results.

Just because it seems like what we did is effortless, it doesn't mean we really didn't go through any hardships.

I'm definitely aware of people who got popular just based on their looks and done completely nothing to deserve such attention from the crowd, but then again, who are you to judge?

 Do you honestly think looks last forever? Why not just let them be? People don't just put themselves out there on the internet and expect themselves to get the attention that they yearn for. They didn't choose to be known, YOU made them known.

And if you talk about them being treated x123456789 times better than you, why not think that they also get x123456789 more hate than you do?

Furthermore, think about it, isn't it exactly the point? Since we're humans too, why do you people always expect us to be perfect? Small little faults and we get hell from you all.

I'm not saying that we lead a difficult life, but if you think that being us is easy, I hope you think twice about it; including the fact that you really have no idea how much pain and stress we've to undergo as well.

It's just like a simple example of a sweet, loving couple, do you think they build such a good relation in a day? Just bcos they look flawless, it doesn't prove that they don't fight and quarrel behind the scene. Quit assuming.

As a matter of fact, there's no such a thing as perfection. Everyone has their own story behind their smiles that you may never know of. Just bcos they don't wear their heart on their sleeve, it doesn't mean that they don't go through as much shit as you do.

Moreover, I don't see why we should get hated just bcos we're achieving something you don't, it's not like we control what people think and how they feel right?



Lastly, to conclude this post, everyone's different. There's no point in comparing who's better and who's not. I know some of you really put in a lot of effort too, yet no one recognizes it at the moment... But who says it won't in future?

We don't get what we want all the time, and trust me, fame isn't everything.

Unfortunately, this world is unfair and if I had a choice I would have taken an easier way out. Even if it's hard to swallow, you just have to deal with it.
