Hello Kitty x Sophie Monk

I've really got to give credit to the brand Sophie Monk for coming up with utterly cute product packaging what with collaborations with ''Little Twin Stars" and "Hello Kitty''.

As a present last year, a close friend got me Sophie Monk's Hello Kitty facial mask to try out. 

Needless to say I was excited but I couldn't bear to tear the packaging for the longest time ever! 

Instructions at the back teaching you how to use the facial mask. I think its pretty obvious and that there's little need for translation.


My review on this mask : 
DESPITE the crazily cute packaging, I was disappointed. I have rather sensitive skin towards products which contains too much alcohol. Not only was this mask dripping wet with chemicals, as soon as I let it 'sit' on my face for less than a minute, a burning sensation was spreadingly rapidly across my face. I took it off almost immediately and went to check myself in the mirror to realize that my skin had turned all red!!

So BLEH for me, never ever going to try this product again and I'd advice you to do the same if you've got sensitive skin.


Apparently everyday-outfits did a review on this product here too. I don't think she suffered my skin's adverse reaction but she wasn't overtly satisfied with the product either. :( which is a shame really, if it was really good, I'd definitely have continued re-purchasing this product as the packaging is adorable.


It doesn't mean that I've abandoned Hello Kitty all together, I recently bought a Hello Kitty mouse.

How it looks like when in operation. 

Better luck next time with Hello Kitty stuff hopefully!

Le Engagement Affair

I went to a friend's engagement for the first time ever! (I know, admitting this at ye olde age of five and twenties shows my lack of a social life.)

Aisyah was a senior back at my workplace. Well technically she's younger than me, its just that she joined earlier and hence became my senior......fuckthisshitisnotimportant so ANYHOOO she invited us over to her engagement over the weekend.

Just thought I'd share some pics and my experiences as it is was such a gorgeously decorated engagement!

There was a baby bash ongoing at the same time, hence the cradle swing. 

First time feeling/looking at real Hydrangeas. Apparently they are used at Malay weddings a lot recently.

Getting all dolled up for the engagement ceremony (which I ended up not attending T^T) 

Later they replaced the cradle with a sofa seat hence we went up to take pictures

A last picture of the very gorgeous setting 

Mascara brushes/wands

Have you ever wondered why there are so many mascara wands, even within the same brand? The beautydepartment has put each brush to the test! Check out this helpful image tutorial :

From now on I'm going to keep me eyes out for that longer, fuller effect as seen in brush no.3.

Cheeserland's Rainbow Lenses

You've probably heard of tokyoninki.com contact lenses if you're a cheeserland follower. I've started switching to using them recently as I read that these were a lot safer to use, holding higher water content, GEO certified, etc etc. 

I'd be honest here, i'm pretty much sick of buying those dodgy lenses albeit them being AMAZING looking. I used to be pretty addicted to them coz they made my eyes look so much bigger and they come in so many different styles. The price is super affordable as well, even right now, they are selling them at rm10 each online, lasting for as long as 1 year! 

However after constant use, my eyes are pretty much feeling the after effects of those damn lenses, i.e dry, tired eyes. I pretty much had to throw them away after EACH use. In the end, I just ended up spending a lot more despite the cheap prices. 

Hence here's where my review starts. I talked a bit about them in my previous post but i must admit i'm not too happy with my earth brown colour which is apparently the best seller. I bought skyblue colour as well since the brand is pretty comfortable and I must say that this time i'm in love with the colour. Its so preeeeettttyyy!!!! 

How it looks like from the official website. 

How the colour looks like in real life: 

                                                                           (true colour)

Lasting for as long as 3 months per pair, I'd say this is a pretty good price at RM58.00/pair (if you want to be super chinese, that's about RM20 per month which is still a pretty darn good price.) 

If you'd like to see a sample of the other colours, head on to this other blog , everyday-outfits, to see earth brown and wood ash colour :) 

My makeup for today is all from Maybeline, except for my brown liner which is from "Essence".

Cotton Bud

Fakelashes: DAISO

I used the cottonbud on "A" to highlight the inner corner of my eyes, and "B" for the outer ends to give it a more 'dark' look. 

Hope this is somewhat helpful for you. Have a great day!

In a doll's house

This was actually a DIY doll house kit that I made quite a few months ago heheh. I got it at the Toy Department. Took me about a week to finish it (it was during the period I was jobless)

My work is a little rough around the edges but from far away it looks pretty good I swear :D

 

After I took a photo of this miniature chair, I realized I had almost the exact same one in my bedroom! What
a coincidence!!

 Some other random stuff around my room: My little pony toys from McDonald's. I only managed to get 3 of them :(

 

The transsexual chicken my friend bought for me from Japan. Weird but in a way, but in terms of being eccentric its very me (not that I'm a transsexual mind you!)





 I've cut my hair recently as well, I'm now sporting 'bangs' and a darker haircolour. I don't like it though, and its true like what everyone says, once you've dyed a lighter hair colour, you really don't feel like going back to black.I now feel like an extremely boring person and like the 'other girl with black hair' amongst asians. Bah!!

Using Topshop's Crayon Pencil in dark brown for this look

I've bought the contact lenses from this online store called : Tokyoninki.com. It got a really lovely natural brown. Comfort wise its pretty okay as well, but its hard to beat that of normal clear lenses. Overall though I'd say its still a pretty good buy :)


Got a chuck-load of new blogpost coming soon as I've started to pick up blogging and photologging? again.
