I have this really bad habit – when I really like a beauty product, I will use it so constantly that I’ll forget to blog about it. Since the last time I reviewed a cushion foundation was 10 March (the Bobbi Brown one), and this was launched around the same time, this should tell you … Continue reading
Yoohoo~! I know this one has been a long time coming, so I’m just gonna keep this short and sweet. Adding on to the success of their Two Tone Lip Bar that was launched in 2015, Laneige has come up with 4 new colours to add on to the 10 colours. Basically, this range allows … Continue reading
It’s Monday already (yes, I know exactly how you feel) – you can’t wait for the week to be over right? Well, this week, you’ll have something even more exciting to look forward to – I’m giving away 3 pairs of tickets to Masego Safari Spa Halloween Spa Party! Now, before you get all confused, … Continue reading
Since I was down for almost two weeks cos of the wisdom tooth thingy, I focused more on trying out new skincare stuff rather than makeup – I mean, nothing will look good on a puffed-up chipmunk with a one-side filler face. Well, if I’m forced to go on this diet, I’ll make the most … Continue reading
Coming from a very Asian and Singaporean Chinese background, I grew up eating in coffeeshops and elderly belly-rubbing old men who loved to open their wet tissues with an almighty “POP” sound. It’s just kinda bizarre – there are perforations, but no, them uncles don’t ever use it. They just clench the tissues into their … Continue reading
Now that I’ve suddenly on a whim decided I can be the next Van Gogh of the nail art world, I’m investing a lot of time and effort into home manicures – you know, practice makes perfect (and plus I can’t quite sit still when I’m watching my dramas / movies – I must multi-task!). … Continue reading
I can’t believe I’ve actually managed to unearth another cushion-type product from my stash. The amount of money I’ve sunk into beauty products is unfathomable (and somewhat guilt-inducing). Don’t judge me peopleeeeeee – some people splurge on bags, others on shoes, and I spend on mah face. OHui Cover Moist CC Cushion – KRW50,000 … Continue reading
I’m a newly converted fan of Fresh skincare products (not so much a fan of their pricing). Their products work well, and give amayzzzzing results ( I LOVE the Black Tea Mask). In fact, I’m quite happy to have found another skincare brand that works well for my skin, and I can apply away without … Continue reading
As a beauty junkie, I’m often torn between spending my hard-earned moneh on quantity or quality. On one hand, I do love having a ginormous parent-annoying stash of products to dive into, but on the other hand, my shelf is literally bending in from the weight of the stuff I’ve tried to shove into the … Continue reading
I love how the Koreans always create some sort of trend, and then the whole world of beauty junkies just follows suit (or rather, the easily suckered ones like me hah). I’m glad to report that the cushion craze has spread not only to concealers (Laneige Watery Cushion Concealer), but also to primers and now … Continue reading
As much as I try to be a little dainty cute princess like Etude House’s mantra, I’m kinda more like Psy or Vin Diesel in a leotard and a tutu – horrible to watch but something you can’t take your eyes off. Hah. That still doesn’t stop me from trying out numerous Etude House products … Continue reading
I sometimes think that there ought to be a course on How To Pop Your Pimples properly – yes yes, like waving a “Sale” sign in my face, I know that you should not squeeze or aggravate any spots on your face, but (pun intended) face it, everyone does it. There’s really no resisting the … Continue reading
It’s a very common misconception that whitening products can be stripping, drying and harsh on the skin. Well, to be honest, some products do have such effects, but there are also others that are gentle on the skin while being relatively effective. Here’s one that I’ve procured from Korea 😀 (yeah right, that makes me … Continue reading
I know very well the pros and cons of trying a new product – there’s always the fear of massive breakouts and bad reactions, but on the bright side, I’m always very excited at the prospect of finding a new awesome product to share with everyone. It’s a pro and con of a beauty blogger … Continue reading
Once upon a time, when I was still young and impressionable, I was pretty crazy about Japanese stuff… I think it was sometime back in 2007, when I actually went there thrice a year. It really blew my bank I daresay – I was just so impressed and enamoured with their ladies and fashion. Immaculate … Continue reading
Now that I’m homebound for a week cos of the wisdom tooth surgery , it’s time to catch up on the blogging and the skincare – especially since I’m so not venturing out of the house with the swollen chipmunky face. Hah. I’m basically resigned to just cleansing and the moisturising and what-nots. Since I … Continue reading
When I was younger than my current 21 years of age (hurhurhur), I used to indulge in lots of frivolous activities, such as insane partying and binge-drinking (yes, not proud of it), as well as constant hair dyeing to maintain that flaming shade of red. Alas, the foolishness of youth. I’m really, really glad that … Continue reading
Ahoy there mateys! I know I’m not a pirate, but I’m so in a mood after watching a quadlogy of Ice Age last night – I know, I know, go ahead and judge me for watching animations. I just like me some happy time. Now that didn’t come out quite right… Anyhoos! The fourth instalment … Continue reading
Here’s another random thought – I sometimes wonder if I named my blog Beautiful Buns cos I was so crazy about BB creams back then. A blog named BB that’s all about the BB hurhurhur? But then again, it BB could also stand for one of my favourite catchphrases – ballocks and boomz. Ah well. … Continue reading
I have really random thoughts at times – like when I die, I wanna give people the option of wearing something more than black and white. I want people to wear animal preens too – yes, I love them prints that much. Which is why it should be no surprise that I’m squealing and cooing … Continue reading
