Busy schedule :(

Since after celebrating my birthday two weeks ago, I started to get busier with work. That was because my company was invited by SMa to involve in World Cities Summit 2012 which will be held at Sands Expo & Convention Center. It was a great experience for me to learn event planning from Jasmine. However, it was really tedious for us because of we had to do everything, be it designing posters and PowerPoint slides or liaising with event coordinators. Good new is that we are able to take time off-in-lieu after the event. YEA!

This afternoon, we even made a trip to Marina Bay Sands to oversee the setup of our booth. Of course, all of us were there to help out. So, the event is going to commence in less than 24 hours. Hopefully, the event goes smoothly for the next 4 days till 4 July.

Well, I'm quite excited but nervous for the event. Why? Because the mayors and governors from other countries will be there on the 1st day of the event. Plus, our PM Lee and Minister of State will be there on the 1st day and 3rd day of the event respectively. Hopefully, they will walk through our booth. The event is really grand with the involvement of many reputable companies/organisations; therefore, it will be very lucky of us if those governors or ministries walk through our small booth.

Alright, it's time for me to sleep so that I will have more energy to "fight".
Good night peeps!

Advance birthday present ♥

I'm so... so... so busy to update the blog since the start of my work life. Yes, workload is OVER-loaded, but my salary doesn't seem to be overloaded.

Hahaha, but...

I wanna update on my little new toy here. Baby and I went to Suntec PC Fair 2012 yesterday, and Baby decided to get a semi-professional camera for me as I have been aiming to get it since last two months ago.

Tadah~ Here comes my Nikon Coolpix L810!

It was a great buy from PC Fair because they gave many free gifts - 16GB SD card, 8GB SD card, Nikon camera bag, Nikon mini tripod stand, big tripod stand, GP battery charger, 4 GP batteries, 2 Fujitsu batteries, and etc... Okay, this camera is not expensive - only $379 with lots of free gifts!

And, I bought a SanDisk 8GB flash drive for $7.50 only!

Anyway, I'm a happy girl now! I shall bring my toy when I meet my 4Fs on coming Tuesday.

I won...

A $200 Clarins hamper from CLEO Magazine!

Full-sized bottles of:

White Plus HP Sea Lily Enriched Intensive Whitening Smoothing Serum
AND
UV Plus HP SPF40 Day Screen High Protection

Don't be surprised that each full-sized bottle costs about $100.

Anyway, I am a happy girl because I do not have to spend money to stock up my Clarins products.

Job-hunting sucks!

Finding jobs really a shit to me! Hell yes, all the craps about minimum requirements and interviews. Why do I say so? Basically, I'm soon to be a fresh graduate (graduating in August 2012, hopefully) without any work experience, so I am looking for jobs which do not require any related experience or they welcome fresh graduates. Okay, when they actually called me for an interview, they talked about what they expect from me. They expect me to be AN EXPERIENCED GRADUATE WITHOUT THEM HAVING TO TRAIN ME??!!! Seriously, what the hell they want?! I supposed you welcome fresh, really fresh graduates? Then now, you tell me that you don't wish to spend time or money on training any fresh graduates.. Okay fine, just strike off "fresh graduates are welcome" in your job advertisement!!

Another thing made me damn mad was that a company actually offered me a job which I think i can learn a lot of basics about human resource management. WOW, sounds great uh? Okay, the salary range offered would be $1600 to $1800. Are you serious?! Do you think I am a cheap labour? Or you think that this salary range is the "market" price for hiring a degree holder to work as HR Executive?

Okay, I am not saying that I'm fantastic or what. What I want to say is these hiring companies should stop contradicting themselves! I really try to calm myself down, but these stupid companies making me so demoralised in finding jobs. I know certificates are not everything, but experience is based on the opportunity given by the companies. So, companies should give us opportunities to learn so that we can gain experience. Experience doesn't appear out of nowhere unless you recruit senior employees (for the goodness sake, please don't include "fresh graduates are welcome" in your job advertisements then).

Fine, just wish me good luck in finding a good company that can offer me a good job with good pay!

Reviews...

Okay, here I am to give reviews on what I have bought last few days ago...

Again, I bought a mascara. Yes, this Loreal Ultra-volume Collagene mascara was on 50% sales, it was so tempting to buy la. Initially, I informed Elvina about the BHG sales and asked her if she wanted me to get one for her. After helping her to buy, I couldn't stop the temptation of buying one for myself too. I currently have 5 bottles of mascara including this. HAHA, how many pairs of eyes do I have?

Anyway, Ultra-volume Collagene is really a good mascara which adds volume to our eyelashes. As compared to Maybelline Falsies (which I bought last time), this one definitely has better effects. Furthermore, it doesn't smudge like what Maybelline mascara do. So, a THUMB-UP for Loreal mascara.

Next, I bought Raspberry Roots Depuffing Eye Gel from The Face Shop. Another good buy! I bought it at $19.40 (U.P. $25.90) because TFS was having 25% member sales. Last few years ago, I tried this range (Raspberry Roots) of sleeping mask before. Not bad, and now they are producing more product of same range, such as eye gel and eye patch. Anyway, I only tried its eye gel for 2 days, so I haven't see any results yet. HAHA, give it some time to show results okay? But I will definitely recommend this range of sleeping mask ya!

Okay, that's all I wanna update. Heehee, it's time for me to sleep! Good night peeps!

Freedom or not?

Hey yo! My student life finally ended after I took the last examination on 28 April 2012. No more examination or project stress! However, I really cannot bear saying goodbye to student life. That is because I rather suffer from exam/project stress than work stress.

Talking about work, I am currently looking for a permanent job. From today onwards, I am going to be hardworking enough to surf net on JobStreet, JobsDB and bla blah bla... But it's really not easy to find a good job, or rather a suitable job for fresh graduates. Those companies either want "lowly-educated" graduates for simple jobs (those jobs opened for GCE 'O'/ITE/Diploma) or very "experienced" people for high-pay jobs. Well, I don't know which category I belong to. I am sure that all of the fresh degree graduates do not want to grab those jobs with very low salary ($1600-$1800) or required less skills (maybe even with ITE/Diploma-cert graduates can apply). If I apply for those jobs, why do I have to study for a degree? Right?

SO, I am going to give myself one month period to look for a suitable job. Hopefully, the sooner the better. Wish me luck! :)

Sigh!

Sigh! Kinda miss my parents when they are not around at home, especially Mummy. Well, they have already gone to Haikou (a.k.a Hainan Island) with our relatives. At first, I thought it was okay because it will still be the same. However, it isn't the same. The house has became so quiet, and my brother's skin condition is getting worse at this period of time. In fact, my parents weren't in the mood to go there too, but tickets and accommodation were already booked last two weeks.

So, the responsibilities of looking after my brother and our house lie on me. These few days I have been accompanying him to visit clinics and National Skin Centre. Besides that, I need to help him applying medical cream on his wounds. His condition is really worse than what you can imagine. Enzyme + Acne on his face and body, ya both erupted very terribly. Furthermore, I need to study for examination as well. However, like I said in my previous post, I really have no mood to study for this module.

I can't wait for my parents to come back on this Sunday!! :(

Pampering myself...

Hi all, Imma gonna update what I have been doing for the past two weeks.

Firstly, it's mugging time because examination fever is here again! For me, it's gonna be my last paper as my university life gonna ends after this examination. However, I really have no sense of urgency to study for this last paper. WHY? Because I don't know what to study for this module. International Business supposed to be non exam-based module so there were many students (or seniors) skipped lectures last few semesters. When they skipped lectures, those local lecturers became unhappy with it so they complained to RMIT course coordinator and subsequently, they decided that International Business shall become both project-based and exam-based module. So my batch happens to be the unluckiest one as we are the first batch taking examination for this module. There's no past year examination paper for us, and the worst thing is that those stupid lecturers don't know how to help us. Tell me, are they stupid for "using rocks to smash their own foot"?! Luckily, this paper is open book-based, save me a lot of time and effort to memorise those theories.

Secondly, pampering time for myself!! Yes, Elvina and I went for manicure session - GELISH manicure, okay! Our first time :)

My pretty gelish nail art :)

This experience was great and fun! We actually went to the manicurist's house because her business is home-based. Fantastic and save costs, isn't it? Alright, this manicurist is really great and friendly, and she has talents in designing and drawing arts on our nails. Gelish nail polish is trending now, because they are more long-lasting than normal ones. You don't even have to worry your gelish nail polish will be chipped off when you are doing housework! As for me, I always have itchy hands which trying to peel my nail polish but now, I can't do it! HAHAHA! So, this nail design gonna stay on my finger nails for a longer time. For your information, you may go to this link - "Joycelyn Kwan Nail Art".

Thirdly, Elvina's friend is currently working at Sephora so she asked me if I wanna get anything from there as her friend can get staff discount. So, I asked to buy these...

Sephora Nano Lipliner - Native Nude and Real Red

Sephora Perfection Primer

Okay, I know I have been spending a lot of money on cosmetics. I shall CONTROL myself from now onwards.

Lastly, I CHOPPED OFF MY LONG HAIR! *screams*

Okay, my hair length really shortened a lot, and of course lighter a lot. I feel that I can fly! Though I can't bear with my long hair, I have to cut because my hair end is really getting drier and always tangled like mad. After cutting hair, Zen recommended me to buy the treatment cream. He advised me not to use CONDITIONER anymore, and replace conditioner with the treatment cream instead. Conditioner is actually a very strong kind of treatment cream, it will definitely smoothen your hair after bathe but when you go out, your hair is dry again. Therefore, he said that for those who have dry hair, it is recommended to use TREATMENT instead! SO you guys learn something new today.

Okay, I'm done with "showing off" on how I pampered myself. Yup, by the way Baby is the one who forked out $$$ for my pretty nails and hair! HAHAHAHAHAH! :D

Maritime Experiential Museum

Hi peeps! I wanted to share my feelings about our trip to Maritime Experiential Museum, but it took me forever to upload all the photos here. Thus, please go to my Facebook to view the photos. Heehee, anyway it was really a great experience for knowing the history of Admiral Zheng He. In case you don't know who he is, I'm gonna explain a little bit about him.

Admiral Zheng He (1371-1433) was born in Jinning Country, Kunming City of Yunnan Province. He was originally surnamed 'Ma', and later was known as 'San Bao' (Three Treasures). He was raised as a Muslim, and started to study the teachings of Islam at an early age. However, during their military cleansing of the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty (1279-1368) in Yunnan around 1381, this young boy was captured and castrated by Ming Dynasty forces. He was then forced to join the army, where he excelled and earned his name 'Zheng'. He travelled to over thirty countries with over 300 ships, including the treasure fleet, and 28,000 sailors. He is credited as the first man to establish a sea route directing the western Pacific and the Indian Ocean worlds.

Oh well, you guys may find out more about him through history books. For me, I will find some time to watch those historical shows to find out more about him, because I scared that I might fall asleep when reading books. HAHAAHA!

Anyway, it's worth for this experience! The admission ticket will definitely be cheaper if you apply free RWS membership outside the RWS casino. Without the membership, you have to pay $11 for an admission ticket. HOWEVER, with the membership, you only need to pay $6! Worth it not?

Phew! My blog is back! :)

Glamabox - March 2012 ♥

It's Glamabox time again!

Yeah, I just received March 2012's Glamabox this afternoon! They created the March Glamabox around a "Spring Garden" theme embodying fresh, natural and back-to-nature ingredients. Let's see what's inside...

Crabtree & Evelyn Gardeners 60-second Hand Recovery Cream 25g
(Retail Price: S$45 - 100g)

Finally, I have a chance to try one of the Crabtree & Evelyn products now. According to the product description list, this hand cream consists of natural ingredients such as sea salt, shea butter, lavender oil and oatmeal, which can cleanse, exfoliate and moisturise our hands. Good, I can't wait to try it!

Clinque Colour Palette: Colour Surge Eye Shadow Duo and Blush
(Retail Price: S$28)

I'm so happy to see this! Yes, a well-known brand for its allegy-tested products and 100% fragrance free!

Nature's Moisturising Toner with Green Tea and Orange Water 30ml
(Retail Price: S$42 - 200ml)

You may not heard of this brand before. Haha, me too. Anyway, this product is made in Italy. I shall try this toner after I finish my current one.

Organix Moroccan Argan Oil Shampoo 88.7ml
(Retail Price: S$16 - 385ml)

Unlike toothpaste, you cannot keep changing your shampoo. The best is, to stick to the suitable shampoo for daily hair wash. Thus, I have been changing a few brands of shampoo to search for the suitable brand for my daily hair wash. Certain brands of shampoo may work well for other people, but not for me. For example, Pantene shampoo makes my hair scalp itchy and Sunsilk makes me drop a lot of hair. To be honest, I like the smell of Sunsilk shampoo, and I really want to use it again. Okay, as for this bottle of shampoo, I shall try once after I finish my current one. Hopefully, it doesn't ruin my hair. *fingers crossed*

Lierac Paris Travel Set - Exclusive Ultra Jour Wrinkle-filling Day Cream/ Exclusive Intense Nuit Wrinkle-filling Night Cream/ Intensive Lifting Serum - 5ml each
(Retail Price: range from S$97 to S$126 - 30ml/50ml)

I'm gonna give this travel set to Mummy. This is more suitable for her, I guess. Hahaha! I don't think I wanna start using anti-wrinkle skincare products in the mid-20s yet.

Okay, that's all I wanna update for this March Glamabox :)

Isetan Private Sales 2012!

It was another fulfilling shopping day for Elvina and I again! Of course, we happily bagged a lot of skincare products back home! We never failed to get Clarins products whenever there are private sales. However, it was disappointing that there is no more 20% discount during private sales at Isetan.

Anyway, I just wanna show what I bought here...

Clarins Gentle Foaming Cleanser
for Normal or Combination Skin

It was my second purchase for this cleanser and it cost me $42. Though it is expensive, this is definitely an awesome cleanser. Another thing is, I haven't finish using my first bottle since I bought it on May 2011. Ermm I think I can only finish my first bottle by June 2012 or later. Usually for normal brands of cleanser such as Bio-Essence (I used to use this brand of cleanser), I could easily finish using it within less than half a year and those normally cost $20-$25, depending on where I purchased from. SO, why should I not invest in recognised brand of cleanser which is customised to my skin type and works well for my skin? It's definitely worth for the buy! For your information, you can actually go to any Clarins counters to get samples to try and test which facial cleanser works well for you. Please don't be shy about it, because they are really generous in giving samples!

Clarins White Plus HP Whitening Velvet Emulsion

Finally, I bought this moisturiser! I had been thinking about getting it since last year after I tried the samples. And of course, I regretted for not getting this last year! This was because Clarins has just increased its product prices this year, and Isetan has stopped its 20% discount! This moisturiser used to cost $90, and NOW $100! Plus, 20% off which mean that only $72 nett. Now, I got to pay full amount of $100 for it, and only received $10 Isetan voucher for next purchase. Huge difference, right?! For your information, you can get 5-day trial samples of this moisturiser from any Clarins counter. Please grab them fast! While stock lasts! AND, I actually finished using this 5-day trial samples within more than 10 days! You don't have to apply a lot, seriously.

FREE gifts!!

Okay, as mentioned earlier that we both bought a lot of stuffs from Clarins, so we got a complimentary 9-piece gift set of skincare/bodycare products (worth $205) from Clarins with minimum spending of $230. Thus, we shared this 9-piece set among ourselves. Heehee!
It included:
- Body Shaping Cream,
- White Plus HP Intensive Whitening Smoothing Serum,
- White Plus HP Pearl-to-Cream Brightening Cleanser,
- Pure and Radiant Mask,
- Advanced Extra-Firming Neck Cream,
- UV Plus HP Day Screen High Protection SPF40 (Neutral version),
- White Plus HP Whitening Pure Aqua-Milk,
- Shaping Facial Lift Lipo-drain Serum ,
- (okay, I can't remember the last one) >> Obviously, this was taken by Elvina HAHAHAHA!

Okay, I got the first 5 products whereas Elvina got the last 4 products as mentioned above. Yeah, we were happy with our purchases at Clarins!

Next...

Shiseido Eyelash Curler

I was so tempted to buy it when I heard a lot of good reviews about this brand of eyelash curler. Okay, I admitted that my old and cheap eyelash curler hurt me a lot whenever I wanted to curl my eyelash, so I have stopped using it anymore. My old eyelash curler cost me less than $5, and this Shiseido one cost freaking $18! Anyway, I tried this eyelash curler...Erm... I think it's not bad only. Not as fantastic as what other people said, maybe my eyelashes are too short for any eyelash curlers uh? Okay, I shall listed this eyelash curler as an impulse purchase. BOO!

Lastly...

Fancl Dietary Fibre Mix

At first, I did not know that Fancl sells such supplements because I always have impressions that Fancl sells facial care products only. I only noticed such supplement after I got to know this product as shown below.

Suntory BIFIOUS + XYLO-OLIGO Healthier Live Digestive System

比菲德氏菌 + 木寡醣

Okay, I watched 女人我最大, 麻辣天后宮 and other Taiwan variety shows which recommended this product for all women who have a common problem of having constipation which causes bloated tummy and increased weight. I was tempted to buy this product, however, it is really too expensive. A box of 30 packets (for 30 days' consumption) costs $67, and I can only get it online because this Japan company does not have a physical shop space. Oh well, I took quite a long time to consider to buy or not. But when I saw the similar product at Fancl counter, I gave up this brand! HAHAHA!

Firstly, Fancl Dietary Fibre Mix has the same functions with Suntory Bifious + Xylo-Oligo, such as maintaining and keeping our digestive systems healthier. Secondly, I can mix Fancl Dietary Fibre Mix with my favourite beverages such as coffee or milk, or even with soup! So, it's the same as Suntory Bifious + Xylo-Oligo! And, it has no weird taste when mixing it with any beverages or food. Thirdly, Fancl costs $31.50 only!! Half price cheaper than Suntory! And I can get it anytime and anywhere I like, as there are many Fancl counters available in Singapore. Lastly, Fancl also has 30 packets in a box. Worth it or not? SO, I bought it without hesitation (of course, after asking Fancl advisor for advice).

Overall, I'm happy with my purchases!

Good stuffs to share!

Hello everyone! I wanna share something good with you here. We girls usually tend to spend a lot of money on skincare and bodycare, however, we sometimes overlook some areas such as foot-care! Ugly feet can be a huge "turn-off" to guys ok!

Here the remedy...

Foot Exfoliating Peeling Mask

I bought this box from GMarket, which the seller sold it at $9.90 per box. It was very expensive as compared to facial masks. Nonetheless, I was skeptical about its after-effects. After reading the good reviews given by people who have tried it, I decided to give a try.

Ingredients

How does it work?

This is not exaggerated because...

After trying it...

LOOK AT MY FOOT! (after 2-3 days)

Isn't it amazing? It may be a bit disgusting, but the end results are really good. Furthermore, it can remove the bad odour of your feet! :) And you don't have to use it frequently, you just need to use it once every 2-3 months. That explains why foot masks are more expensive than facial masks.

Watsons Bamboo Vinegar and Milk Exfoliating Foot Masks

I bought these foot masks from Watsons sales which these masks are selling at $13.90 per box (Buy 1 Get 1 Free, with any purchases above $15). Since Baby bought his wrist support at $18+, so I was able to get these two boxes for $13.90 only. Hopefully, the effects are similar to the first one I used.

Anyway, I'm gonna share my artpiece with you guys...

Leopard Prints

This was my first time doing this art. Well, of course it didn't look very perfect. But I think I did quite a good job HAHAHA~ okay i spent 1.5 hours drawing hor! Shall draw more and share with you here... :)

Okay, that's all I wanna update.

Post-Holiday Shopping Hauls!

Guess what? I realised that I really spent a lot of money on shopping for the past 3 months. I just can't control myself... Alright, I bought a lot of skincare products and cosmetics and bla bla blahh...

Nivea SOS Intensive Hand Balm

This really helps a lot when my hands are dry and dehydrated. My hands are prone to dryness, and my condition is so serious that my hands doesn't look like the hands of a 23-year old girl. Okay, I must say my mum's hands are much better than me. Nonetheless, my condition has improved a lot after I used this hand balm for a week. This product works a lot better than those expensive lotions uh huh. Yes, I swear!

Loreal Youth Code Pre-essence AND
Loreal White Perfect Transparent Rosy Whitening Night Cream

I heard many good reviews about the Youth Code pre-essence. I was a bit skeptical of using it. Out of curiosity, I bought it at Watsons when it was on sale. That was, I was able to buy the night cream at $9.90 if I purchased the pre-essence which cost $39.90. I was amazed that I could see results after using this pre-essence for a few days. Yeah, this pre-essence helps to boost up the "absorption" of the skincare products such as serum and day/night moisturiser. This should be used after applying toner. Well, I think it's worth it! As for the night cream, I haven't use it yet.

Clarins Pore Minimising Serum

Hmm this was recommended by Elvina as it worked well for her, and I went ahead to buy it since I do have enlarged pores. In fact, the result isn't visible ya. A little bit disappointing, and I may not continue using again after finishing this bottle.

ZA True White Essence (for acne/pimple scars)

Honestly, I didn't know why I bought this product. Impulse purchasing again! Well, it works well for me! When squeezing my pimples, I tend to have pimple scars or dark spots after that. However, this really helps to lighten my pimple scars or dark spots. I mean LIGHTEN, not completely disappear. You may like to try it if you want.

Maybelline The Falsies mascara

I heard many raves about this mascara. Hmm after trying it, I must say that the advertisement really exaggerated about its effects! As compared to its other ranges of mascaras, I think that the effects of its other ranges are better than this. Feeling so disappointed with this purchase, I bought another brand, which also one of my favourites for mascara. That is, Majolica Majorca! :)

Majolica Majorca Lash King

Yes, a new product! I bought this when Watsons was having 20% + 10% (members only). I fell in love with Majolica Majorca's range of mascaras when I first started using Lash Enamel Glamour Volume On. Its mascaras never smudge on my oily eyelids, and I always use it to apply on my lower lashes. If I use other brands to apply my lower lashes, I will definitely become a panda at the end of the day. As for Lash King, it is much better than The Falsies, that's my opinion.

Maybelline eyeshadow (Pink-Brown range)


Kate eyeshadow (Purple range)

Sweet colours! However, I need eye primer to make the colours long-lasting and DARKER! Tadah~

Urban Decay Eyeshadow Prime Potion (Original)

This is really a good buy! Firstly, it makes your eyeshadow colours more vibrant. Secondly, your eyeshadow can last throughout the end of the day. Thirdly, your eyeshadow will not smudge, especially those with oily eyelids. Lastly, it saves your money! Why am I saying this? Look at the image below...

The darkest colour (with primer) and the lightest colour (without primer)

Here it is, I used the same colour (navy blue) for trying. With primer, I only applied 2 coats of eyeshadow to get this result (darkest colour)! Whereas, without primer, I applied 5 coats of eyeshadow to get that result (lightest colour)! So, with UD primer potion, you don't have to purchase a new palette of eyeshadow frequently. Furthermore, your eyeshadow will not show its "true colours" without primer! Which one looks more like navy colour? You judge it :)

For your information, there are 4 different kinds of UD primer potions. They are Eden, Original, Greed and Sin.
Eden: Nude matte finish (usually use together with matte eyeshadow colours)
Original: Nude (usually use together with any eyeshadow colours)
Greed: Shimmering yellow gold
Sin: Champagne shimmer
Both Greed and Sin will add more shimmery to your eyeshadow and can be used as highlighters. Other than these, they are the same as Original one.

NYX Eye/Eyebrow Pencil

Unfortunately, this brand is not available in Singapore so I have to go online searching for it. I bought this from GMarket. In fact, this brand is just a normal USA brand for cosmetics. You can buy them at relatively cheap prices in USA, but in Singapore, these sellers sell them at high prices because of its shipping costs from USA to Singapore. Nonetheless, I still can't resist temptation to buy it. I must say it's quite a good quality product!

E.L.F Hypershine Lipgloss

E.L.F. makeup products are very cheap! However, I don't get used to applying lipgloss because I don't like my lips to be sticky and my hair will stick to my lips when wind blows... So, it's just another impulse purchase again. HAHA!

E.L.F Foundation Brush

Do you guys believe this cheap brush (freaking $3.90 only) can have same quality as other good brands of brushes such as Ecotools and M.A.C.? Yes, I was amazed by it! It doesn't prick my face and the brush is super soft and smooth. I was very satisfied with this foundation brush! As compared to The Face Shop, E.L.F. brushes are a lot better! I once bought a blush brush from TFS, it cost more than $15 (if I didn't remember wrongly) BUT it pricked and hurt my face! So, expensive stuffs sometimes doesn't mean GOOD quality uh?

Versace Bright Crystal Eau De Toilette - 30ml

A new product, and expensive! But I like the smell, so do Baby.

The Face Shop Eyebrows Sponge

For those beginners, this definitely helps you to draw and blend your eyebrows! As stated as its name, it used "sponge" instead of crayon or pencil as the tip. Well, the question now is how do I use it? Very simple, the crayon actually hides in the cap. So when I cover the tip with the cap, the sponge will touch the inner part of the cap and then the sponge will be "dipped" with crayon. Sounds complicated? Okay, just know that you can use it straightaway when once you open the cap. HAHAHA!

The Face Shop Fake Eyelashes

Its fake eyelashes are relatively cheap and soft. This was my second purchase of fake eyelashes from The Face Shop. I like it!

The Face Shop Nail Polishes

New added colours! Okay, it's my weakness that I can't resist temptation to buy nail polishes when I see the display of colourful nail polishes!

The Face Shop Nail Dot Pen

This was another second purchase. I have white and black colours now! But you have to be very careful when opening the cap, because I nearly spilled the white one. Yea, looks like liquid paper spilling out on my table -.-'"


Okay, that's all I wanna update for now. Heee :)
