[ Hello's ! ]

Dear my wonderful ladies .. !

It's beeeen years since I've blogged !! So many things have happened in my life and I just needed to take a break from this wonderful blog world..I have been trying to keep up with a lot of your blogs but I was never able to get enough of it !

I sincerely miss all of you wonderful ladies out there .. !


What's new with me ?


1.) This summer, I've lost about 25 lbs ! I hired a personal trainer and worked out with him for about a month before I came back to school. I used to be able to wear pants size 4 ~ 6 and now ? I wear size 0 !!! It feels amazing to lose weight and feel better about myself !! Because I've lost so much weight, I basically had to buy clothes for everything !!! I am still working on my belly and my thighs but they're probably the hardest parts to lose ! If any of you ladies know a good way to lose those parts, pleaseeeeeeeeeeeee let me know! I'd love to hear from you !!

2.) I am currently in a relationship with a wonderful man ! I actually met him this summer. He transferred to my school finish off his major from Canada. He is Korean (finally dating a Korean ! LOL) and he and I have so many things in common ! I guess he had a crush on me for a while and I didn't even realize it until his friends told me. We hung out a lot and got to know each other more. And one day, he surprised me and took me to this beautiful lake right before the sunset ! We walked around the lake and waited for the sunset.. and that's when he asked me out =) The best thing about him is that he understands me and always supports me with everything that I do. I love the feeling that I am able to tell him anything and discuss about it if I wanted to. Basically, I'm happy =)

3.) It's been over 2 months since I bought any make-up. Can you believe it ? I don't even know what's new these days.. But I am currently looking for a gooooood handcream for men ! If any of you ladies know, please let me know. I also have this issues with my razor bumps on my legs. I need to know a goooood product for that if any of you ladies know. What's popular these days? Someone update me on make-up ! ehehhehe... I'll probably be able to find out by reading all your blogs! but a little update would definitely help me =)

4.) I finally own iPhone 3G3 !! It's been a little over a month and I loveeeeeeee it !! Any good Apps that I should download ?

5.) I was sick with a cold for about 2 1/2 weeks now. I missed a week of school and I'm in a middle of making up for allllll my classes. This week is not going too well for me ! You ladies, wash your hands often! Carry hand sanitizer with you !! It sucks to be sick when you have so many things to do !!! Take care of yourself ladies !! =)


This weekend, the bf and I are thinking about taking a trip to Chicago because we didn't get to celebrate our 1 month Anniversary. That is only if I am "100% better" according to my bf. hehehe... But this weekend, I'll make sure to post pictures !!!





I hope that allllllll of you ladies are doing wonderful and staying healthy!!

[BB Cream Review: Skin 79 & Korean Cosmetics]

hellloo loveees .


I'm going to do a review on 2 BB Creams that I've just purchased.


Skin79 Diamond Collection
"The Prestige"
40g
$50

&


Korean Cosmetics Ultra
"Ossion"
60ml
$38

.


I loveeee the packaging of Skin79 product because it's pink and shiny.
LOL
I know many girls loveeee pink and shiny things =)
It also has a little pump to use (veryyy convinient)

On the other hand,
I do not like the packing of Korean Cosmetic product because it looks really cheap and it's in a tube.
.

Take a look at these picture:
You can definitely see the difference between these two.
Skin79 product is veryy easy to blend where as the Korean cosmetic product feels cakey.


Blend Blend Blend ~~

.
I basically tried both products this morning
(washed my face TWICE LOL)


.

How do I feel about it ?


ULTRA "OSSION"

I personally did not like this product because it didn't give enough coverages for my blemishes and acne scars.
This might be an excellent one for someone that doesn't need a lot of coverage and wants a super natural look. I couldnt' tell that I had anything on my face after using it.


Skin79 "The Prestige"
I personally like this product and it's something that I would definitely re-purchase again. It felt very light for my skin and yet gave me enough coverage. This will also be one of the product that I'll use daily for a natural/easy look. The only thing that I didn't like about this was that it was a bit pricey.




FOTD using the Skin79 "Prestige"





XOXO
