Glamourous Burgandy and University Life

'I can't wait for this coming semester, it will be my last third semester!'

My previous assignments are ready for collection and I was pretty nervous about it, since I wasn't doing well in the past semester. However, I was surprised that I did okay, giving that most of my assignments are in merit except for my HR subject, I got distinction for the individual assignment! *I spent four days in doing that essay and it's TOUGH to get distinction from my HR lecturer!* 

Still, I got all merits in total! *bye bye first class*

Anyway, I am currently looking for several looks for Chinese New Year and Valentine's Day. I keep looking for inspirations through Pinterest, my favourite inspirational source site! There are so many pretty pictures, my favourite part would be makeup trends and crafts because these make me smile all the time! 

I bumped onto Revlon New Shanghai Collection (last fall) campaign picture on Pinterest, the collection is surprisingly Shanghai - with all the glamourous purple and famous red lips on most Shanghai women in those days. 

Emma Stone

I was really inspired when I saw this look. Without hesitation, I took out my makeup tools and completed the look with my own interpretation (It doesn't look like the look above but heck, first attempt is usually bad) HAHA

I choose to line the cat eyeliner downwards, creating a beautiful doll eye ('cause I'm Asian, that's why LOL).  This would help me in enlarging and brigtening my small eye, giving it a beautiful anime character eye. (Which might be true because I look so animated when I blink my eyes) My eyeshadows are in geometric shape using burgundy and brown matte to sharpen the edges.

Now tell me, what do you think about this look? Personally, I like this look very much because it suits me very well and I've mastered the technique in creating downwards eyeliner! If you like this look as much as I do, I will be happy to create a tutorial for you guys! Just let me know by leaving a comment and like this picture on my Facebook page so that I will know!

There are more looks to come for Valentine's and CNY, I'm still thinking which look is suitable for both occasions! =3

Swedish House Mafia -One Last Tour KL

On the 18th January 2013, I just went for my first rave by Swedish House Mafia at Sunway Lagoon Surf Beach, it was truly magical because I got to experience what rave was all about! It was only my boyfriend and I for this party because some of our friends couldn't make it.

My FOTD for the night!

I decided to wear light makeup without foundation because it will be all sweaty and stuff. Instead, I mixed my liquid concealer and moisturizer for a light base, it is something similar with tinted moisturizer. My eyes was just a simple cat eye with gold glitter on top of it, giving it a disco ball look HAHA, I even purposely bought Essence waterproof mascara to avoid having panda eyes after the event! As for the lips, I used Forever 21 Love & Beauty sheer lip gloss in Red. The lip gloss is actually pretty good, it is not sticky but could last really long! (Forever 21 is currently having promo, buy 3 for only RM15!). With a bun updo, I was ready for the party!

I was kind of regret for not having any drinks before the party, I couldn't get my groove on. lol. Again, the drinks in the concert wasn't that worth (could be slightly more expensive) and my boyfriend doesn't drink. urgh, good guy indeed. As we were in the crowd, I had experience what jemdahunk described on party people's dance moves. Around of us, there were typical 'the chicken', 'the double pump' and 'the fist pump' behind me - my boyfriend. And in front of me, there was a girl who was 'the space huggers', she danced and her hair keeps on masuk my mouth LOLOLOLOL I was like 'EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW' I can't dance, all I did was covering my mouth and 'hoolahoop' -.- 

and don't forget, they were plenty 'pok pok' and 'the problematic' LOLOLOL... which one were you on that day?

One thing I really dislike in the party is that... PEOPLE, STOP WALKING AROUND AND INTERRUPTING OUR DANCING WOII Seriously! I mean, come on! When SHM was blasting the most climax part and we went insane, some people would just walked pass me -______- Man, I had to stop dancing just to let you pass... Potong stim betul HAHA Not good lar, the next time you wanna come for a concert, be punctual! unless you got sick lar, you can be excused LOL

Apart from that, the party was REALLY good! Too bad this is the last time we could saw them together (or not, I heard that they will be having a big tour again in August)! Were you there that night? How was it?

Makeup Trend: Geometric Eyes

As you all might know, I can't live without eyeliner (I have four eyeliners with me because I'm obsessed with it, seriously!) I love how an eyeliner can change one eye into something fun and more energetic look. The sad thing about me with my naked face on, my eyes tend to look really sleepy even thought I'm not. That's why cat eyeliner would always be my favourite daily look!

Geometric Eyes, however, is one of the makeup trend for fall 2012. The look can be done by creating a fun geometric shape (like triangular) to compliment your eye structure. I personally think that this look is perfect for a brand new start of 2013! This makeup trend is quirky and also a modern approach to lining your eyes.

In order to create this look, you need a ruler to draw the perfect shape.

Just kidding! (Excuse me for my lame pun)

To achieve this look, all you need is a good eyeliner with sharp tip because it helps to create the exact shape that you want. You can be creative by adding bold colours, inspired by the 60's glam (take Twiggy for instance) in creating a even bolder look.

What do you think about this trend, would you try this out?

Review: Sampar Paris Skin Quenching Mist

Hey lovelies, I have a great skin care product I would like to share with you, it is another SAMPAR product - Skin Quenching Mist. Since the weather changed, my skin is completely confused.

SAMPAR Skin Quenching Mist is one of the product from SAMPAR Essentials skin care. The purpose of this product is to keep our face hydrated and fresh.

What I love about this product is the cute packaging, it comes with light pink and it is convenient to carry. All you have to do is pop this cute little product into my bag and you're set to have the best time of your life! This mist is also act as a makeup shield with its barely-there texture, making sure that your makeup will last longer while leaving your skin hydrated throughout the day!

SHILLS The Luxurious Bulgaria Rose Skin Care Launch event

I was truly excited when SHILLS invited me to attend their product launch event. I never use SHILLS products before but the brand is quite popular in Taiwan variety show, named 女人我最大 aka Ladies First which discuss about women fashion and beauty. 

The event was held at The Garden Lifestyle Store and Cafe, MidValley which also complimented the theme of the event- roses! Everyone there was enhancing their inner sweetness with white and pink clothes, the consultants were looking sweet with their hot pink top! 

Introducing...

SHILLS The Luxurious Bulgaria Rose Skin Care

SHILLS extracts 4000kg of Damascus Rose petals that fine grows at Bulgaria Mountain to produce 1kg of rose essential oil in production. Rose essential oil has an exceptional quality and distinctive floral, aromatic scent which help to calm you and even enhance the romantic flow within you =)

To preserve the nature of the ingredients, SHILLS does not add chemical substance during the process making. With the natural essence of the roses, it would restore the youthful beauty while keeping the skin moisture and hydrate to ensure a velvety and healthy complexion glow of the skin.

SHILLS The Luxurious Bulgaria Rose series is consisted of nine products, from the basic 1 2 3 to eye mask! Eva, a specialist from SHILLS demonstrated the proper way to apply facial skin care. First, she used the skin moisture level meter to check the moisture level of the model. Initially, the moisture level was 31.5.

Eva taught us to how apply moisturizer and cream properly. I didn't know that using dotting method doesn't work, it also create uneven skin condition! The proper of applying the moisturizer is to use a 20 cents size onto a palm and rub it together. Then, apply to the face using each hand =3 This would help the skin to absorb the moisturizer efficiently, creating your skin to be more moisturized!

After all the demonstration of the basics, Eva checked the model's moisture level. Surprisingly  the moisture level had increased to 33.2!
