[Mascara Collection]

hey ladies <3

I told myself that I was gonna be super productive today but that didn't happen AT ALL.

School sucks balls & Weather sucks ass
LOL.

For next couple weeks, I will be EXTREMELY busy with school and this big festival that i've been planning for so long !
Being the president of an organization in school, there's so many responsibilities that I need to deal with. It can be a lot of pressure getting things organized and always make sure that we're not behind with anything.

I basically need a break from school ..
And I am really excited for Chicago this weekend.
YUP, I will be doing SOME shopping.
..LOL

Anyways,
Earlier today, I was "trying" to re-organize my makeup collection that I have in my dorm and realized that I have too many mascaras.
I know that I have about 20 other mascaras back at home..
but i'm thinking to myself, "where this all mascaras come from?"
LOL..

So this is how many I have in my dorm:


Givenchy Phenomen'Eyes
Covergirl Lashblast
Covergirl Lashblast luxe
Covergirl exact eyelights
Covergirl LashExact Hydrofuge
Diorshow Black Out Waterproof
Majolica Extended Lash
MUFE Lash Fibers
Maybelline Lash Stiletto
Maybelline lash stylist
Maybelline the colossal Volume Express
Clarins Double Fix'
Shu Uemura ultimate expression


Yeah..
I know I've used all of them at least once..
but there are certain ones that i've been using..


Which ones do I LOVE?



Covergirl Lashblast
Shu Uemura Ultimate Expression
Diorshow Blackout
Clarins
Majolica Extended Lash

For me,
they feel really light even after 2 coats.
It's not cakey & it seems to make my lashes look longer.


On the other hand,

Which ones do I HATE?



Covergirl exacteyelights
MUFE Lash Fibers
Maybelline the colossal volume express


For me,
it doesn't do their "job" that they promised.
CG doesn't make my eye look different with the mascara on.
MUFE ? I just don't know. LOL It didn't do anything for me.
Maybelline ? I hate the smell the most !!

Mascara is super important during our make-up routine.
But I've learned that before I buy a mascara,
always make sure to know exactly what you're looking for and how you want your lashes to look.


time to study for my business law

thanks for reading!

It's always hard to be motivated on mondays..
I pretty much slept through my morning classes and now, i'm trying to figure out what the homework was.. LOL.

Like I've mentioned on my previous post, I went shopping with DSK, Stephanie.

We went to the mall so late that we only had about 45mins to shop (sorry Steph!)
But as soon as we got our eyebrows threaded, we went straight to the MAC store and did some damage. LOL.
Good thing I controlled myself because I'm saving for the trip to Chicago SOON!!

YUP,
Steph, me and our other bestie are going to spend a night in Chicago this weekend to celebrate DSK's 22nd birthday !!

I didn't get to try the Clarins Double Fix' Mascara yet.


Speaking of mascara, I am thinking about showing all the mascaras that I have right now and talk about which ones I like and don't like.
I have wayy too many and majority of it, I used it once or twice..
ugh..

I said that I was going to show HK Bows that I ordered from Ms.Tia :

[Review: THEFACESHOP Hydrating Milk Pack]

hi ladies <3
Happy Friday! (well..almost saturday)

Tonight, I decided to end my night with my favorite "Hydrating Milk Pack" from THEFACESHOP.

I have to say, I absolutely love their products. Their stuff smells good and it does seem to work well on my skin. I use a lot of their Massage packs & masks. I also love their BB cream!!! If you don't know much about their products, you definitely should check it out.

So what does this milk pack do exactly?
"This wash-off milk pack provides the concentrated care of a salon facial from the comforts of home to hydrate and soften dry, rough skin."
The benefits of milk: "A natural nutritional food containing various proteins, minerals and vitamins that help improve skin elasticity and brighten lackluster skin."


This really does smell like milk and it's not sticky at all, which I love <3>


Directions:
After washing and applying toner, spread evenly over face avoiding eye areas. Leave on for 10~15 minutes and rinse off with warm water.

* "waiting for 15mins" pictures *
(BE AWARE FOR MY BARE FACE)

" Is it time yet ? "

* I apologize for this f*(*(@&#*@ face *


So 15 minutes later..
I washed my face with warm water..
then,
I put on my night skincare products I use..

And the result ?

Now, I've been EXTREMELY ILL for about a week.
You may not think that my face has gotten whiter..
But, when I'm on my normal condition,
It's A LOT whiter and smoother !!!

But I do want to tell you all,
When I first used this product, I didn't notice the difference at first.
But I definitely noticed it next morning.

I really recommend you beautiful ladies to try their products!
It's amazing and does work !


I'll be doing another review on SEAWEED PACK in couple of days!

Stay tuned!
xoxo

[Sickness]

hello ladies..
I cannot believe my precious weekend has gone and school starts again!!
gaaaahhh.............

I've beeen super sick and been to the hospital 4times this week..


I'm probably the stupidest girl EVER.

Guess what I did?

well..when I went to the hospital, my doctor have told me that I had MONONUCLEOSIS, also known as "kissing disease" (not that it has anything to do with me...lol).
So she gave me this medication to take for a week..
The medication was to heal my swollen throat and make you sleep well at the same time..
I came home for the weekend and was looking forward to get enough sleep on my comfy bed..

On Friday night, I took 2 pills of my medication because I wanted to sleep WELL and my throat was getting worse. I thought my doctor told me that it was ok for me to take 2pills at once.

What happened to me on saturday ?

I was EXTREMELY drowsy and slept 19hrs straight...
My mom tried to wake me up but I couldn't keep myself awake..
Later that day, I kept throwing up NOTHING but water..(gross i know)
I knew I wanted to eat something but couldn't eat anything solid...
So guess what I had? Of course, BABY FOOD =)
But yea..that didn't go so well either...sigh*
I knew something was wrong ..so my mom took me to the ER that night..

What was wrong with me?

I OVERDOSED on my medication..
*SIGH* *SUPER SIGH*
I can't believe myself..
What was I thinking ?
Even on my prescription bottle says "DO NOT TAKE 2 at once"...

..so yea,
that was my weekend..
I feeling a lot better today...
I lost 3lbs in 2days..lol..
but my face look gross rite now..

tonight, i think im going to do some Seaweed face pack..


hope you ladies had an wonderful weekend.

[MAC HK & Gerber]

Hello ladies!

I was sooo happy with the weather today!
79 !! woohoo!!
I just hope that it only gets warmer from now. =)

good news!
I finalllly got my MAC package!!
Free shipping and it only took 4days to get here.

What did I get?
Hello Kitty Kouture Collection

Sheer Mystery Powder (Medium Plus)
Dazzleglass (Kitty Kouture)

Sadly, Dazzlepuss was all sold out.

Does anyone have Dazzlepuss?
If you do, let me know if you like the color



I didn't get to try the powder yet but I actually like the Dazzleglass..
I'm not a big fan of lipgloss because it seems tooo sticky for my lips.
but it wasn't too sticky as I expected.

Sorry..
I couldn't take a better picture of the color..
But it's a sheer light pink with light glitters..
It will definitely go well with my usual natural look
=)


So that's it for my MAC haul.

Oh.
Guess what I bought over the weekend at Sam's Club?
BABY FOOD!!


As soon as I saw it, I thought of Ms.Pink!
I know how much she loves her BANANA baby food!

Oh my gosh..
I love baby food.
It is absolutely delicious!!

You ladies should definitely try it
=)


alrighty ladies,

I am logging off for the night.
Have a good night ladies!

[Random thoughts]

hello ladies =)
I hope you ladies had a wonderful weekend!

Sadly, my spring break has ended and I am back at school..
Of course, I am not motivated to study at the moment..but I'll get there sometime..lol

I was being extremely lazy and I ended up looking at my old pictures..

*memories*

Even tough I'm 22, I miss being young..
I wish I can go back to that time being goofy and not have to be responsible for anything..

Now,
I have so many things that I need to be responsible for..
It can be overwhelming but that's life right?
I enjoy everything that I do right now..
I guess blogging does make me feel better and release my stress
=)


ahhhhhh

Why am I so emotional right now?
I'm not sure. But I think I'll stop being random ..lol

sorry if this was tooo random to even read.
I probably wasted your time..lol

Tomorrow, I should be getting my MAC HK package!!!
WOOHOO!!

Hope you ladies have a good night

xoxo

[ Chicago Haul pt.2 ]

Hey lovely ladies =)


I said that I was going to finish talking about my chicago haul today so here I am!


While I was in Chicago, I was SUPER SUPER excited going to Mitsuwa market to buy many many Japanese cosmetics. Mistsuwa had absolutely nothing but their shampoo and hair wax... barely makeup stuff..


sigh*


But then..I was already there and I thought I should buy at least 1 thing. lol..
yea..when i go to any type of store, I HAVE to buy at least 1 thing. hehe

Here's what I got :
Shiseido "Water in Lip" chapstick
CoenRich Q10 White Deep Moisture Hand&Finger cream by Kose
Unicharm cotton pads (2packs for $6 including tax!!!!)


I've tried the hand cream and the chapstick. I ALWAYS love Shiseido chapsticks. If Mitsuwa market is close to where you are? you should definitely get it. =)

and OoOoOo the handcream!!! I loveeeeeeee the feel of it. It doesn't smell like anything almost but my hands are extremely soft after I put them on.
special thanks to Fuzkittie
for telling all the blogger ladies about it!
I can't wait to get more when I visit chicago again!

I am going to use my new cotton pads tonight when I remove my makeup!
I will definitely let you guys know if I like it or not. =)


AND LASTLY,

I went to korean market for some grocery shopping and thought that I should visit THEFACESHOP since it was in the same building (good excuse right? =p )
They didn't have any new stuff but I picked out SOME stuff.. lol..

Remember, I'm always insterested in trying new skincare stuff =)


So here's what I got :
Face Masks
Seaweed Pack
Egg White Pack
"Beautiful Jeong Yeon" (Oriental Herb Cleansing Oil Gel)
Samples

I pretty much tried all different kinds of face masks that THEFACESHOP have. So far? I love all of them especially the rice kind. I use this once a week. It really does make my face moisturized and smooth !!

Oh, and the Cleansing Oil Gel ?
It seemed a bit weird to me using this at first.. but my makeup does come off really well ! It smells nice too !!
I will try to take a picture of me using it...lol.

That is it for my haul !!
LOL
I hope you guys liked it.

For next couple days, I will be trying those Seaweed&Egg White packs and see how much I like them.


OH,
Blogger ladies that asked for a sample of "Angels on Bare Skin",
xoannie & Janelle
Send me your name&address on my e-mail (you can find my e-mail add on my profile)
I will be glad to send you ladies a sample of it. But don't expect a big package from me !! there will be a little surprise with it but don't know what they will be yet. lol.

Also,



Katrina & Askmewhats
It seems that you ladies might be insterested in trying them as well !
If you could let me know your address, I will be glad to send you ladies a sample as well !! =)

alright ladies,
I am logging out for the night !
Good night ladies

[Chicago Haul pt.1]

Hi Ladies =)

It's spring break time for me here in Michigan.
I finally get my time to relax and forget about school for a week.


My brother came home from school and our family just had to be out of here for a short break. So we decided to go to chicago for 2 nights.
It was short but it was definitely worth it. I didn't get to shop so much because weather wasn't all that good.

I love Chicago. But I hate their tax !!!!!

I spent a lot of money again while I was in Chicago..
How much did I spent?
Well..This might explain it..
Armani Exchange
THEFACESHOP
Salvatore Ferragamo
Tiffany & Co.
Sephora
LUSH
Mitsuwa Market (not shown on the picture)


Anyways,

Chicago=Sephora. LOL ~
I can't forget going to Sephora while i'm there. I was a bit disappointed with my visit to Sephora. It didn't excite me this time lol...But I picked out a few things just to make myself feel better..lol


MUFE Eyeliner 0L
MUFE Lash Fibers
Diorshow Blackout Waterproof Mascara
Bliss ingrown hair eliminating peeling pads
Sample of Benegiy dr.feelgood

I didn't get to try any of them yet but i'm excited to try the base mascara and Diorshow.

Has anyone tried the Bliss peeling pads that I got ?
I hate my nasty bumps on my legs and one of the guy at Sephora recommended me this. If there's anything that you are using to reduce those bumps on my legs, please let me know !! I want to get rid of these bumps before summer !!


FINALLY, I was able to get a few of lush products. I didn't even know Chicago had it until my mom mentioned it to me.

Angels on bare skin
Ocean Salt
Yellow Bags= forgot the name of it..

Last night, I tried the angels on bare skin. Result ? This is probably one of my favorite exfoliating product !! I didn't think I need to put on any moisturizer. My face feel soo nice !!!

If anyone would like a sample? let me know.
I might be able to send you some of mine =)


Since I don't have enough time,
I will write about the goodies I got at THEFACESHOP & Mitsuwa tomorrow


xoxo !
