Italian in the Kitchen

It's been a while since I've actually had someone else cook for me without paying them.

An awesome friend of mine had just come back from her Europe back-packing trip and she very kindly invited me over for her homecooked italian lunch!


Had the usual lightly toasted bread & olive oil for starters 



We then proceeded to Sauvignon blanc & Abergine pasta (coz she knows how much I love the stuff) . The white wine was from Africa from her sister. Apparently the giraffes made it ahem.


My lil' chef! 


Then we had homemade Affagato for dessert. That's a mini Affagato-maker by the way, a pretty simplistic design but makes pretty good expresso.

In goes the vanilla ice-cream


I brought over some brownies I bought in Hong Kong called 'Market O' 


Was a tad bit too sweet for my liking but not bad for instant brownies I guess. They were surprisingly soft!

Tony Moly Petite Bunny Gloss Bar review


I love Hong Kong!! I just came back a few days ago and already I miss the food which is absolutely to die for. Not to mention the SaSa stores, its just jammed packed full with makeup goodies at lower prices compared to the ones back home :) 


My Rilakkuma haul. I know its not much but I spent the rest of my money on makeup and perfume T^T . Will blog more about my HK hauls in another post <3 nbsp="nbsp">



Going back to TonyMoly, I fell in love with the product when I saw it in SaSa. These bunny lipgloss sticks are just too adorable to pass, and comes in a range of 9 different colours (the yellow one though only has a very very slight pink tinge). 

These pretty bunnies are selling at HKD62 per stick (RM24.80)

TonyMoly Petite Bunny Gloss Bar is essentially a lipstick/lipgloss made in Korea. It claims to be very moisturizing on the lips containing herbal ingredients and at the same time, provides a strong vibrant colour.

I bought Juicy Apple (03) and Orange (08). 

(OMGOMG its like the cutest packaging ever) 




The thing I first liked about this product was how easy it was to use. It rolls up smoothly from the bottom, is light weight and easy to carry around. I would actually consider this more of a lipgloss as opposed to a lipstick because the colours aren't very strong, but depending on the flavours you pick, it gives off a really love scent and a nice taste to it (personally I'm addicted to the orange one). 


Swatches



I have shit make up today (just one of those disgusting days where no matter how hard you try your make up just goes awry) so I had to use an old picture from my phone which is rather grainy. Anyways, I have on juicy apple in this picture. You may need to layer on at least 2 to 3 times before you can get this  colour.

The colour comes off easily after eating, but if you don't use it throughout meals, it actually can stay on for a pretty long time (for me, it lasted 5 to 6 hours before I ate anything). 

I would definitely recommend TonyMoly lipglosses as a must buy!
