LOTD: Time-less Green.. & A Joy-ful Day !!

finally, i got to 'play' with l'oreal "timeless green" eye palette &.. maybelline pulse perfection mascara ! i like these colors pretty much. guess i'm going for neutral looks recently hahas xD

oh, i also wore new violet lenses. nice ?

these are encore color monthly contact lenses. these are pretty affordable at about $15 i think.

hmm.. well i didn't use "timeless green" alone to achieve this look. one thing i realized was when i use l'oreal chrome intensity eye palettes, i don't use dark colored eyeliners at all. it is simply because the pigmentation of the dark eyeshadow is good enough to be the liner color. amazing (:

what else did i use for my eye makeup ?

• too faced shadow insurance
• la splash mineral eyeshadow - exquisite
• stila face luminizer - sun highlighter
• sana new born lasting w brow LB3
• etude house eye glow pencil 2

 

show you my right eye. on a random note, i think i like my left side of face more than the right side. what about you ?

btw personally i find the maybelline pulse perfection mascara alright but.. the price tag in singapore is not alright at all ! $29.90 for a drugstore mascara is too much ! it is more worthwhile to buy online, seriously. and, it is quite tiring to use.

other makeup products include:

• bobbi brown foundation stick - sand
• za face powder 10
• maybelline perfect concealer 01
• mac well dressed blusher
• maybelline watershine pure 322 juicy orange

 

anyone wanna do a mac blusher swap with me ?? i jus gotten myself another brand new mac well-dressed blusher because i FORGOT that i own one :/ pls PM me if interested. thanks~

i was at a bridal shop. not me getting married of course. my girl friend's getting married next year ! i'm just there to help her to choose her gowns (: btw no photography allowed. i did it secretly hahas :x

after which, i went to meetup with my lovely girl friends & a guy friend. i was very very very hungry by then -,-

this place is famous for ramen ! yummy !

this was my 1st time, definitely not my last time. usually the ramen soup base tends to be overly salty but rest assured that Ippudo's is not that salty.

i had the seasonal ramen - Kyushu Miso Tokotsu 2010.  Ippudo original pork broth with blended miso, mild in taste with cabbage, Japanese leek, spring onion, pork belly, pork loin and flavoured half egg. the soup base is creamy & flavorful. everything was yummy, the soup, noodles, pork belly, pork loin.. not forgetting the egg !

Bakuretsu Tofu. spicy tofu and minced pork in hot stone pot. not very spicy actually. i like it overall, good to share.

Hakata Hitokuchi Gyoza. Hakata style mini pork dumplings. yummy & indeed mini.

that's all. haul post up soon (:

SAD T_T that'll be boring much. no colorful makeups. i'm so random hahas.

LOTD: Glow Heroine

what a name for my LOTD (sometime back) ! hahas xD it's actually derived from the two main eye makeup products i used for this look. here goes.

this is a very simple daily look without looking ott (:

as you can see from the pictures, the glow is subtle.

and so, i used maybelline diamond glow 03 gray pink for this look. honestly, i've never been a huge fan of maybelline except maybe for some of its worthy mascaras. the usual maybelline eyeshadows were either too sheer or chalky for my liking. so what on earth made me get this then ? hmm i must have read it somewhere online that this is pretty good i guess.

i got this at john little when they are having 20% discount on this. don't ask me the retail price coz i forgot :x first of all, they aren't very shimmery(think kate, majolica majorca, fasio). It is a set of 4 gradational colours being a white highlighter, pink colour, silver and dark grey accent colour.

i love eyeliner wings ! simply line the top of your eye with a thick coat(which i always do). do remember to follow your lashline as close as possible, no gaps in between pls. for a natural daily look, extend it slightly. and, you are done (:

kiss me heroine make smooth liquid eyeliner

rest of the products used:

• majolica majorca brow customize sword cut
• laeaumini black eye pencil
  
• maybelline magnum volume express waterproof black

• biore uv perfect face milk
  
• silky girl silky white lightening pressed powder 02 light

LOTD: Sun-kissed

june is the hottest month of the year, yes ? well, singapore is a all-time summer island.. so we practically get sun-kissed every other day. i don't really like the sun, seriously. i tanned very easily that's why. oh, wanted to show you lovelies my "sun-kissed" LOTD without having to go under the scorching hot sun to achieve this look.

here is the faceshop bb cream i used. i bought this online from my all-time favourite korean makeup store, koreabb. anyway, i'm not paid to introduce this online store to y'all. how i wish i was.. :p hahas kidding. this is one of the expensive bb creams i bought i think. $37.91 after vip discount. yes, i spent that much to become vip (or maybe not that much ? $140 1st one-time purchase) btw it's oos now but no worries, you can always preorder.

as seen from the picture, this bb cream is clearly more suitable for ladies with fairer complexions. this is kind of fair on me but i'll make it work for me somehow lol. i like the faint floral smell though :p

this is swatches of the sana new born lasting w brow LB3 i recently bought from sasa. above is the brush-tip side, while bottom is the pencil lead side. however, i feel that it's not light enough for my eyebrows.

i still need to use shu uemura eyebrow manicure 02 tawny gold to lighten my eyebrows. finally, a swatch of how this shade looks like.

maybelline perfect concealer 01 & stage picture perfect liquid camouflage 03 pixie doll. PERFECT C: used both as the maybelline one is abit fair for me.

shu uemura face powder matte (shimmery), stila sun highlighter & palgantong makeup theatrical powder.

oh, i used the stila sun highlighter as eyeshadow as well. it's that pigmented.

a more close-up picture (:

no eyeliners & mascara used as yet.

i like this eye palette, seriously. go get this from ta zhiang ! i've used the white, beige & brown so far & it's really pigmented without even using eye primer !

for mascara wise, i used covergirl lash blast. very black right ? i like :p

i used my favourite stage broadway brown eyeliner & kiss me heroine make smooth liquid eyeliner !

i think if you were to use fake lashes, the effect will be better ? (:

mac instant chic to finish up the look ! nude lips is a must ! there is nothing on my lips as seen as these pictures were taken after i reach home.

last two camwhore pictures to round up this entry !

do you like to be sun-kissed ? heez~ :p
