Wall Decal (wall sticker)

Hey guys!

I've always wanted to renovate my room and at the moment it is slowly getting there :)

To be honest with you during my high school days my room was a complete mess, clothes was everywhere and I was never bothered to clean it up but the older I've became the more responsible I am hehe.

I like to keep my room simple but yet homey and pretty :)  I've recently got this Wall Decal in the mail that I've purchased online on Brandexclusive for half price; $80 down to $40. It took me awhile to actually put it on my wall  but with the help of my brother and sister it was faster to apply.

Up The Amp.

As you can see in my blog I have alot of post about my lipsticks. I do have a collection of lipsticks, guess a girl can't have enough lipsticks hehe. There's one particular Lipstick that is my favorite and that is Up The Amp by M.A.C. I'm in love with this plummy purply colour, I guess it's different and fun at the same time. What I love about this lipstick is that you can apply to the shade you want, there's either the electric purple when you apply a lot or the plummy purple if you don't apply as much and also it stays on for a very long time!

    

Up The Amp $36 (aud)

Minor Applied with lipgloss.

Sunny Girl.

I haven't been shopping for a while so I've decided to do some shopping last week. My wardrobe at the moment has been outdated and I'm in desperate need for new clothes haha. To be honest I do tend to buy things that are way over my budget because I buy things that I like and don't really think about the price tag. But during my spending's, I've been a good girl and bought at least something that was a bargain hehe. I work at a store which sells clothes for no more then $29.95. Sometimes you'll see something you'll like and sometimes they just look dead set ugly to be honest ,depends on your taste in clothing I guess. I usually don't buy a lot from my workplace due to my taste in clothing lol but this time I was lucky enough to find something I do like!

Isn't this top so cute!! so this is a sunny girl top from my store :) I find it cute and classy at the same time. The price of this top would be roughly be $30 from other retail shops but as I was saying before my shop is pretty cheap and this top was only for $9.95 but since I'm a employer I do get it for 50% off so I only got it for $5! Alot of our customers do think that our stock are faulty or damage and no its any of that, we get out  stock from the factory in bulk sizes and usually its the last stock of everything hence why its so cheap :) But yes I'm loving this top at the moment and hope you guys do too!

Yves Saint Laurent.

Hello my dear friends! usually you'll see bloggers updating their blogs every day or week, unlike me it seems like I post one every freaken month haha! I'm sorry for not updating I do blame my laziness , its a huge problem for me as you can see and I'll try to update my blog us regular as I can!

So guess what!? I've officially purchased my very own Yves Saint Laurent (YSL) Lipstick!! I've always wanted one mainly due to its classy pretty packaging it has :)

So here are the two YSL lipstick I bought. They are from the Rouge Volupte collection. These babies both cost $55 (aud) each and are really worth its money. They apply on really smoothly and the scent is really good, and great texture. Only thing is you got to be very gentle and careful when u do apply, as it like mousse (that's how smooth it is!) once you make a mistake its slightly hard to fix.

The one on the left is Red Taboo 18 and the one on the right is Forbidden Burgundy 12.

Red Taboo 18.

Forbidden Burgundy 12.

Personally I prefer the Forbidden Burgundy as I suit more of a plumy purple shade but in conclusion I do love both of them! I'm one happy chappy from buying them hehe :)

20th Birthday gift.

Hi girlies,

I just received my birthday gift from my bestfriend just 3 days ago even though my birthday was 5 months ago but so worth the wait! So I've been wanting a make up brush set forever and just never came about to buying one because they are just too expensive. Like what I said in my last post, my bestfriend just came back from overseas and bought me all my M.A.C make up, but what I didn't know was that she got me a Bobbi Brown Essential Brush Kit for my late birthday present!! I Thank her so much for it, love her to bits.

So the Essentials Brush Set includes eight brushes for face, eyes and cheeks: Eye Blender, Eye Definer, Angle Eye Shadow, Ultra Fine Eyeliner, Eye Sweep, Cream Shadow, Bronzer and Blush Brushes. I find these brushes slightly softer then the M.A.C brushes I have at home, as sometimes the M.A.C does tend to be irritating my skin but that may be just me and my skin. Unfortunately i don't know what the price is because my bestfirend didn't tell me.

M.a.caholic.

Hi guys! yes I haven't been posting for the past few weeks, I apologies for being such a lazy, yet workoholic person hehe. Just recently i've decided to take time off from uni and just work for the meantime. The course im doing isnt doing any justice for me. Ive decided to change course but the thing is i've yet decided what I want, maybe these 6 months of freedom will help me decide the right path for me :)

Anyways my lovely bestfriend recently came back from Hong Kong/ Macau and Vietnam and I told her to buy me a few things from M.A.C since i'm a M.A.C lover and everything in Hong Kong is roughly half price the Australian Dollars.

These are all the M.A.C things I told her to buy me!

1. 213 Flush Brush 

                                                                   2. Blot Powder/Pressed

Out of all the lipstick I got, my favorite would have to be Lickable and Syrup. This is my second time having Syrup, its just a great colour to wear for any occasions and you can wear it during the afternoon or night time 

:)

                                                                        3. Ruby Woo

                                                                        4. Lickable

                                                                        5. Milan Mode

                                                                        6. Chatter Box

                                                                        7. Angel

                                                                        8. Syrup 

Usually when i'm applying eye shadow I go for the nude and natural colours such as brown and white as this suits me more. I use the brush 213 to apply eyeshadow. Decided I needed another 213 brush so now I have two of them hehe. 

                                                                         9. Vanilla

                                                                        10. All That Glitters

                                                                        11. Cork

                                                                        12. Bronze

All my stuff have turned out pretty great although Plot powder/pressed was a disappointment as the colour didn't match my skin tone :(  So all together I got my items for 1820 HKD which is equivalent to $ 240-60 AUD. If I was going to buy all of these in Australia it would've cost me $ 421 so I've pretty much saved roughly $ 170 bucks!!  

Anyways i'm off now trying out all the bobby brown brushes that my best girl gave me for my late birthday present lol, i'll def do another post tomorrow on my bobby brown brush colletion! cya then!!

Review: Gel Eyeliner.

Hi there!  So my sister went to Hong Kong awhile ago and bought me a few things from there, one of them was a Bobbi Brown Gel Eyeliner. Today I've decided to finally try on the Bobbi Brown eyeliner. I usually use M.A.C Fluidline eye liner which isn't too bad.

I use a M.A.C 210 eyeliner brush, unfortunately it broke in half inside of my make up bag haha.

The top one is the Bobbi Brown Gel Eyeliner. Colour: Black Ink.

The bottom one is the M.A.C Gel Eyeliner. Colour Avenue $32. The M.A.C one is a dark brown and has a tint of glitter in it. 

I decided to compare the two Gel Eyeliners out and see which one looks better.

1. M.A.C.

2. Bobbi Brown.

As you can see the Bobbi Brown looks much better and not as messy, it was also a lot easier to apply on comparison to the M.A.C gel eyeliner, although Bobby Brown tends to smudge a lot. 

In conclusion even though bobbi brown does look better, I wouldn't mind using both of these gel eyeliner and find any of them pretty good :)

Scrumptious.

Good morning Lovelies,

It's 10:30 the usual time I would be awake by on a Sunday hehe. Sundays are my cleaning, relaxing days since I have work off. So I have to clean my room today and truth is.. I'm a really lazy person. Usually i'll have to get my motivation up by playing music and lighting up my scented candle. At the moment i'm using Glasshouse Fragrance Triple scented Candle . 

I have two from Glasshouse so far and the one i'm using at this moment is Tahaa which is a Vanilla Caramel scent. This scent is freaken Scrumptious, very sweet and the caramel smell makes it all eatable. I do recommend you guys to buy one just to try it out which is $39(aud) for a 350g that last for 80-100 hours! but I just purchase the 60g for $17(aud) which last for 20 hours. Just make sure you don't eat it hehe. Anyways I gotta start cleaning my room now, enjoy your day :)

Shopaholic.

Hello my lovelies, wanted to show you guys the new purchases I've made in the past week!

1. Bettina Liano Ace Jean. 
Got this baby at the Bettina Liano store at The Strand in the City for $239 (aud). Had to renew my old ones. They are pretty expensive but are worth it and are really comfy. The only thing that's a down turn is that they do tend to colour fade and also I always have to pull them up all the time but maybe that's just me hehe.

2. PeepToe Rough Dot Slab Necklace.
Peeptoe was on sale, it was $149 down to $69(aud).It was a must buy and I do love the blue in them :)

3. Mimco Large Turnlock Wallet.

I'm slightly obsessed with Mimco, just love the designs and material from them. I do like black and gold together and saw this wallet and loved it!! Got this wallet for $199(aud). This is my second Mimco wallet. The inside is all metallic and shinny. 

I also have a travelling wallet version of my wallet that I've just purchased. I use this travel wallet for clubbing purposes or for dinner purposes. Turnlock Travel Wallet $ 229.

Anyways so I was bored today so decided to try to do some vampire lips for fun with red and orange lipstick hehe. 

M.A.C Matte Russian Red Lipstick $36(aud)

Revlon Coral Lipstick roughly around $12(aud)

Manicare Lipstick Brush

This is how it turn out to be, hope you like it hehe :)

I've got a confession to make.

Hey my Lovelies, it's been awhile since the last time I did a post but hey i'm back :)
So For the week I've been procrastinating, lazy and a lot of shopping. Ok yes my confession is that i'm a huge shopaholic, not sure if i'm proud of this but hey it's really worth it. I'll let you girlies know what I've purchased in my next post because right now i'm too lazy to take pictures of them.

Also I've bought new lip liners and also got my nails done so just want to show you guys how it all ended up!

Lately I've been purchasing Hyatt Lip liners because, well they are affordable and does it's job pretty well. I've purchased them at this random stand in a shopping centre for only $ 3.00 each.

The Lipstick i'm using with the liner is Australis Moisture Intense, Colour : Candy.

So this is how it looks, I love this Lipstick Colour.

I'm pretty impressed with my nails this time. Got shellac done again in a baby pink colour. Decided to do some simple diy design at home , not too bad for a noob :) Done my nails for $38.00

My noob design.

So I used the the middle one and the right one for my design. Since I got the base colour done at the nail bar I decided to show you another pink nail polish that you can use as the base :)

Whats good about shellac nail polish is that u can paint over them with regular nail polish and can remove the nail polish and the shellac nail polish is still there. Here is an example of me removing the nail polish.

After rubbing the nail polish off, still new as ever :)

Gradient Lips.

 Hey there! I don't usually wear lipstick as much but I do tend to have a few and I usually just play around with them. Usually when I do wear it I do a gradient effect just because it's different and it's actually fun to do once you get the hang of it! I decided maybe I can show u girlies how I do my gradient effect on my own lips. Ps, I don't have the best lips shapes ever and i'm just gonna do a rough version of it hehe.

This is how it looks like:

What I used:

NYX Black Label Lipstick, Colour: Poem BLL 177

M.A.C Amplified, Colour: Craving A60

Hyatt Beauty Lip Liner (drug store) Colour: Plum 721

Steps: 

1. Apply the lighter lipstick in the middle of your lips 

2. Apply the darker lipstick at the corners of your lips and overlap the lighter lipstick showing some of the lighter lipstick  

3. Apply more of the lighter lipstick again in the middle overlapping the darker lipstick then press your lips together and softly rub them together this will blend the colours together well. Add more lighter lipstick or darker lipstick if u want.

4. Use a lip liner which is darker then your darker lipstick and apply as much as you want in the inner corner of your lip top and bottom.

The colour of my lip liner, you can see how darker it is comparison to the lipstick colours 

 Blend the liner in, lining your lip shape as well but don't line it all the way in the middle as you want to keep the lighter lipstick untouched. Press your lips together and rub them more if it is required and youre done!

The more u apply the liner and the darker it is the more gradient effects it gives, but remember don't over do it :)

hope this helps you girls out

Ahoi hoi.

I'm glad I don't have a credit card, because if I ever did, I think there would be problems. So yes i'm suppose to save but doesn't hurt to go shopping once in awhile right? I bought this awesome top at a small boutique shop, it was slightly pricey for it $59(aud), but it was worth it!
