Yoohoo~! How was your weekend gais? Sorry for the slight hiatus again – I zoomed over to Hong Kong for a weekend jaunt (will blog about that very soon!), and it was such a fast and furious thing that I’m all red-faced now from the flurry of activities. In fact, the flush I got from … Continue reading
Lancome was one of the first western brands to launch their cushion foundation, and even had 8 shades (vs the Korean pioneers who generally only had 2-5 shades). I guess having the early-bird advantage does help – while the other brands like YSL and Biotherm are just churning out their first version, here’s V2.0 of … Continue reading
I love how the bb cushion trend is taking over the world – yes I’ve read in some forums that those who aren’t accustomed to this trend might think “oh isn’t it messy?” and “isn’t it troublesome?” – but once you’ve tried it, you will come to realise that this is a super handy and … Continue reading
I’m kinda like a Spartan when it comes to beauty shopping – armed with a shopping basket and my credit card, I mentally chant “THIS. IS. SPARTAAAAA” and off I charge, scooping everything from the shelves into my basket.muahaha. Scary much? However, I do have some semblance of a conscience that reminds me from time … Continue reading
Since my recent bout of gastroenteritis, I’ve been looking paler than usual, and true to my usually-positive mantra, I’m making the best of this situation by bringing out the coloured makeup pieces ð Lancome Artliner 24H A felt-tip applicator Under clouded sunlight Under bright sunlight The rub test … Continue reading
Pooooh. I’m having a little trouble getting back into the groove of blogging, simply cos I haven’t had the time to sit down (or rather, stand up) and take proper photos. I’ve had to spend all my energy unpacking my goodies from my recent Korea trip. Argh, my back. I’m such an oldie but not … Continue reading
Since I’m a roll with my lash products, here’s one more mascara review since it’s da weekendddddd. I received this at the Lancome X Alber Elbaz show at Sephora a couple of months back. The Lancome Hypnose mascara has a new heart-pattern dress. So purdeeeeee. A specially-shaped applicator brush Ok, I swear I didn’t suddenly … Continue reading
Most normal people dislike working on Saturdays, so I was pretty surprised both by myself and the number of editors/journalists who turned up at Saturday’s Lancome event. Well then again, it is Lancome, so I guess the incentive was there (along with the possibility of freebieeesss) I actually had no idea what to expect until … Continue reading
Although I’m usually the vainest pot that ever lived, I’ve recently lost some drive to do up the eye makeup, no thanks to my interrupted sleep. However, because of this, I’ve also uncovered a new makeup secret – dabbing the pink portion of the Laneige Love In Bloom Sculpting Blusher helps mask my dark eye … Continue reading
Contrary to popular belief, magazine journalists do not strut in to work looking all “bitch, I’m fabulous”. It’s quite the opposite – on ordinary days, we (well, mostly, I) trudge to work in our most lup-tup (local slang for shoddy, crappy, shitty, you get the gist) clothes with our glasses perched at the tip of … Continue reading
In an attempt to counter the Monday blues today, I’ve decked out my lips in pink. Opposite colours of the colour wheel, right (fine, so orange is technically the opposite colour, but it really isn’t my colour). During the weekends, I spend more time out of air-con, which is why I need to maintain the … Continue reading
