L’Oreal Paris False Lash Miss Manga Mascara

The mascara is ultra black and silky without weighing down the lashes (so you can stop worrying about your visit being covered by the lashes) as it’s formula is Asian inspired.

Real Technique Brushes // Bali // Luxola
Sponsored Everyone knows that I just came back from Bali last month and now, I am itching for another visit, another getaway. Whenever I go on a holiday or staycation, I bring along a lot of mini travel samples I got from events or monthly sampling boxes. This time round, instead of travel-sized samples, Luxola sent me a Real Techniques Travel Set for my travels. Yay! I love brushes and I don’t really have a set which I can bring around for travels so easily. Look at the picture below, it can also be transformed into a stand where you can easily pull it out for your make up. A…

Summer with #belif
Sponsored Summer almost here and I am definitely HATING the sunny weather because I prefer to stay fair and cold. I hate dark spots, freckles, harmful uv rays and whatever you can think of. I also think I am easily one of the few that has over 20 bottles of sunblock at home that I use concurrently because of the sun. It only take me 2-3 weeks to finish a bottle of sunblock!! Being a sun-hater and a belief lover, how can I ever miss a Summer Retreat with belief?! The event was held at Yoga Co. and yup, a yoga class was conducted for the beauty bloggers. Sadly, my…

Bourjois Paris
Sponsored When I first received an invitation from Bourjois Paris, I was thinking… “really? I haven’t seen their media event before”. The truth was, I was right! This was their first Blogger’s Party. The main highlight was its AQUA LAQUE series, which is a hybrid lipstick but I was guilty busy exploring all the cosmetics that evening. The place was a little dim so pardon me for the poor quality photos 🙁 AQUA LAQUE is an explosion of colors because it has very vibrant colors. I gave them a try and the texture was very watery. This hybrid lipsticks contains high concentration of water and nymph extract to moisturize your…

The Face Shop Suncare (FAV!!)
Sponsored Weather has been really really crazy recently and I am seriously irritated!! I don’t want any freckles or pigmentations on my face. Neither do I want skin problems cause by the harmful UV from the sun. Sometimes I get so paranoid if sunblock is really sufficient. But seriously, what would I do without sunblock? It is the only staple thing I must have in my pouch. Even when I don’t make up, I can never do without sunblock. Some time back, The Face Shop sent me their best selling Suncare in the cutest way!! The entire press kit was so cute! It came like a beach – literally. I…
