MAC Stylishly Yours: Dark Diversion Fluidline is nothing like the shade as shown.
This looks more of a cool-toned purple, yes ?
Argh the flashlight's too bright here. You can see the subtle berry micro-shimmers though (:
I guess, for better representation of the shade, go check out Temptalia's review :D
Dark Diversion is a darkened burgundy-brown with berry-wine undertones and subtle berry micro-shimmer. This is a new and limited edition shade. (credits to Temptalia)
This limited edition shade is too pretty to pass, seriously ! It's no doubt a must-buy for me :p
Single layer vs Double layer ♥
The fluidline is easy to apply, glides on the eyes effortlessly since it's so creamy and pigmented. I love the subtle berry micro-shimmers, which brightens up the whole look somehow (; Very lasting; the color doesn't fade at all.
My LOTD. Now, you know why I name it Color Contrast. You must be wondering why the hell did I use turquoise mascara ?!
See the contrast ? :3
I actually tried this Turquoise Colored Mascara from the Make Up Store. I didn't purchase it in the end, though I kinda like the unique color. Too expensive IMO =.=

Hmm did the colored mascara snatch Dark Diversion's limelight ? =.=
My OOTD was a floral dress btw.
Now, food porn time !
Dim sum at Crystal Jade Palace Restaurant with Sandy and Jessie. Initially wanted to go Imperial Treasure BUT full house. No choice :,/ By the time they called, we were already in the midst of eating. It's advisable to go during the weekdays, seriously. Preferably before lunchtime.
And so, the custard buns were so-so. Disappointed coz Imperial Treasure serve awesome ones !! Don't believe, ask Kim :p
Ok, the har gaus were pretty good. Comparable, IMO.
This was alright too. Steamed pork ribs.
Roasted pork, I like ! I'll love it much much more if the serving is more generous :p
Siew mai taste good too albeit lil' salty. Not too porky. You know, the difference between normal siew mai and restaurant siew mai lies in the amount of prawns used (at least to me) XD
Prawn chee cheong fun. The skin is just a lil' thick, that's all. Other than that, I like it pretty much.
Fried prawn dumplings. Not too oily, just abit salty =.=
I still prefer Imperial Treasure char siew paus. *SIGH*
I forgot the name of this dish. Sweet muah-chee like skin with savory white radish fillings, I think. Taste not bad, surprisingly. Just too oily.
The century egg/lean meat porridge had a chao-tah taste :/ They didn't charge us for this. I wonder if anyone else "complained" about it ?
Dinner was as sumptuous I guess. Super-filling lunch and dinner but I ain't complaining !!
Yours truly and my sis (sans makeup). She wasn't very willing to camwhore Xp
Oh, we were at Bedok Point, new shopping mall in Bedok *DUH* Hmm it's more of a food mall to me hahas !
We settled our dinner at Chicken Hot Pot. There was a long queue, and the food on the tables look exceptionally delicious. The people there were enjoying their food, as seen from the satisfying expressions :X
The chicken hot pot. Looks good eh. Taste even better ! The sauce is spicy and so addictive. I can literally finish a bowl of white rice drenched with this super awesome sauce teehee~ :P It's really THAT awesome ! The serving size is for 4 pax btw, with only 3 of us finishing the food effortlessly LOL
My bro's turn to camwhore :D
We ordered mushrooms too, which we added into the chicken hot pot. YUMMY !! Should've ordered more mushrooms. Lime juice for me and my sis, coke for my bro (not in photos).
We ordered a set which comes with prawn hot pot as well. It could be better if the prawns were more fresh. Other than that, I like the taste.
Did you spot an unusual ingredient ?
Yes, fries. Soggy, coz they'd been soaked in the sauce for quite long. Underneath the prawns and fries were onions, celeries, etc. I helped myself to the flavorful celeries in both the chicken and prawn hot pots :D
Hungry yet ? :P
Don't know why I haven't been receiving updates notifications of your blog on my email. I lurve the mascara! Definitely get myself one in the makeup store.
ReplyDeleteURGGGhhhh! why do you always like to post food pictures, the shio bak and the chicken hot pot is too much for me at this time of the night, this is cruelty you know.
Ya.. I remember checking out the makeup store mascaras.. very pigmentated and bright!!!
ReplyDeleteThe MAC Gel liner... does the color look like the Maybelline one? I kept thinking it look like it so I never really swatch or want to get it (but in one of your pics.. it look brownish.. I like~)
Christie, Kim (ladeekim) has the same problem too =.= There's other colors like green, PINK ! Hahas oops.. It's so hard to resist good food !
ReplyDeleteChantana, ya very pigmented and bright AND EX hahas ! I don't have the Maybelline one. But from what I remember, the Maybelline one more to purplish plum color while the MAC is a dark burgundy brown (so they're different ?) I think you'll like Dark Diversion =p Go go go !
OKOk.. the maybelline one.. after it set for awhile.. it turn abit brownish.. but not as intense. I will pop by MAC to check it out(provided they still have it la... have to leave it to "FATE" liao! lolx)
ReplyDeleteOoo I see.. Hmm it's limited edition so faster go and check it out ! Tester should be there, but not sure about the stock though -.-
ReplyDeletei LOVE the color of pink on your eye, it is so beautiful! i have MAC exiesnpve pink, and Bare Canvas, but it def does not come out like that on me. I guess whatever is in that 88 palette you have makes it richer! Gorgeous!
