New lipsticks and favourite lipstick.



Was at NEX with Dearie when we saw this. Gasp! I figured it's for the Great Singapore Sale period and I haaaad to get new lipsticks! Don't know why I'm obsessed with lipsticks now. So I dragged Dearie down and sent this picture to Andrea and Phanenta. Got good things must share ma.



Went down and saw this L.A Colours Moisture Lipsticks for $3.90 !! I had to get some! $3.90 leh !! 

First colour I bought was this. PINK SAND! Actually Dearie picked this, and he did good! 

L.A Colours: Pink Sand


The next colour I bought also from L.A. Colours was this Precious Plum. I wanted a colour similar to to the deep red in MN lipstick (Love that colour but hate the lipstick), so I found this.

L.A. Colours : Precious Plum 


Verdict on L,A Colours moisture Lipstick is I LOVE IT. It smells kind of buttery.. or cocoa-y.. Don't really know which, and it is pretty moisturizing, my lips are really dry and sensitive, and this is great, doesn't make my lips weird or tingly. And they have so many colours from white to black, literally, not sure who would want lipstick white as sheet though, or like jet black, but they have that colour. Most importantly it's only $4 ! 


Next Lipstick is this Beauty UK posh pout's Big pinkin tinted lip balm for $6.90. More expensive but it's quite a huge stick.

Beauty UK ; Big pinkin

I like this too ! It's moisturising as expected since it's a lip balm, and the colour is so pinkish-purplish, feels very barbie! And there's this slight minty taste when you first apply it which is nice.


The reason why I bought the pink is because it's pretty similar to my favourite lipstick.

Touch in SOL : #4 Sweet Pink Lady



Andrea gave this to me, she said it costs $16 but it doesn't suit her, so now it's mineee
Muahaha. I absolutely love love love this. I feel confident and pretty in this. 

So swatches. Top to bottom: Pink Sand, Sweet Pink Lady, Big pinkin, Precious plum.



But since Sweet Pink Lady so ex, I saw a colour very very VERY similar to this. So I would probably get that instead of this. 

The colour is Australis : Flamingo

This cost $6.90 on the sale. No idea how much it usually costs. 


I know because I did this to my arm. xD

Review: MN Kissproof lipstick

MN Kissproof Soft Lipstick

Bought this lipstick recently on Carousell, it was pretty cheap for lipstick so I thought I should give it a try. *cough* cheapskate  *cough* 



There's up to 17 colours if I'm not wrong, there might be 2 more. The seller I brought from had all the colours. Bought it at $3 SGD each. There's a promo at 5 for $12 I think. Saw some Instashop selling at 1 for $6.90, 3 for $15, sooo overpriced. 



Got two colours, one nude (05) and another deep red (11). 

Nice pointy pencil-like tip for precision, can double off as a lip liner. One weird thing about this is there is no way to twist out remaining colours, I googled and found out that I was suppose to sharpen it down. What a STUPID design, I had to sharpen plastic down. Probably why it's cheap eh.


The nude (05) takes 3 swatches to reach this shade, which is kind of expected since it's a lighter colour. The single red (11) swatch on the other hand is pretty pigmented. This lipstick definitely very matte as stated BUT definitely not the hydrating part, I can feel the slight drag as I apply on my hands. 

Since my lips are already very dry, there is no way I can put the lipstick without lip balm. 


Testing out the colours. 



05, really light colour, the difference between my lip colour and the actual lipstick is very subtle, slightly pinker, which is what I wanted, so it's all good. Even with lip balm on, it still felt slightly drying, not going to lie. 



11, after finding out that only very dark red suits my skin tone, decided to buy this colour. Same thing with the dryness. Even with lip balm on, you can tell it is still very matte. Colour can be build on, more layers for a more pigmented, darker red, which is good.  


And lastly, to test if it is really kissproof. Gave my hand a kiss after applying red (11) and tadaah~ Only a liiiittle bit as you can tell. This amount is really good especially when I had applied a layer of lip balm before applying this.


So conclusion,

Pros:
- Wide range of colours
- Relatively cheap for lipstick ($3)
- Precision, double off as lip liner
- Easy to wipe off if drawn out of lip area, doesn't stain skin
- Kiss-proof as stated
- Matte as stated
- Pigmented

Cons:
- VERY DRY, not hydrating at all, doesn't deliver what was stated
- Doesnt smell good, plastic-ky / rubbery smell
- Weird design
-GIVES YOU WEIRD TINGLY FEELING ON LIPS (UPDATE)

Overall, I like the colours alot and the main problem can be easily solved by putting on lip balm, but would I buy it again? Probably not. Unless I cannot find any other red colour similar to this, if not I would really prefer a more hydrating lipstick, as oppose to a matte but drying one.

Note: Have not tried wearing it out yet, will update again to see if it is long lasting.

UPDATE: OMG , I realise after wearing it long enough, it leaves a tingling, drying, uncomfortable sensation on my lips. I do have sensitive dry lips, it could be just me, I dunno.

UP/UPDATE: Decided to give it to my friends and told them they can throw it away if they don't like it, I HATE IT. NOT WORTH IT.

Daiso eyelash glue review

I'm going to cut to the chase, save your $2, do not buy. It's really bad. 

The tube is really cute and all. 

But the contents is not that good. It smells a bit like UHU glue. And brush is not a good applicator for thin surfaces because the brush will split when you're applying it on the lash bone. 

1 min after I put on my falsies, the lash bone on the inner corner of my eye is already not sticking already. Definitely would not be able to lash a full day, especially with people with skin type on the oilier side like mine. 


So yep, I guess someone shouldn't save on something that can cause you embarrassment. I shall go back to using the Star lash from Sasa. This one has worked well for me so far, sticks really well.

China Yoyo Corporation Championship 2015


Noooo... Dont go... #OAG



Woot woot, my handsome man on the CYCC's website wor. Had to screenshot down so that I (or he) can look back on this few years down the road. 

So Dearie is leaving for Qing Dao tomorrow night [T.T huuu huuu] and will only be back next Monday. Okay la.. not that bad. But this is like the first time since 2012 that he's going overseas without me. Think he is practising now for his performance, ALL THE BEST MY FAVOURITE JUDGE! 

Sending positive vibes that it will be a smooth and enjoyable trip. Creeps, weirdos and Dua neh bu-s, stay away form my Dearie. 

P/S : I changed my blog layout to fit this huge photo. Hope I didn't mess up something else. Ah wells.
