I find it quite sad how my ex wrote a awful blog about me that's filled with lies, yet people believe the whole story. Just because you read something online doesn't mean it's true. Like come on now...just because he wrote a sympathy blog doesn't mean he was the victim and was the only one who have been hurt and how I was the who lied/changed/deceived him. Those who talked shiet or want to talk shiet you don't even know me and just listening to one side of the story and believing it..it's like really? I'm not going to sink down to his level and talk shiet,but honest to dear God, I've put up with alot and did everything for him and the relationship when we were together.He was the one who treated me wrongly. It really upsets me that he would write such a awful blog about someone he so called loved just because I finally got the courage to leave a relationship that was constantly hurting me. Only if people knew what he did to me and behind his current girlfriend's back. I've been over this whole situation awhile now,but it just upsets me how ignorant people can be sometimes.

Circle Lens - Super Nudy Blue

2010-06-14T22:16:00.000-07:00

I recently bought a pair of circle lens from pinkyparadise.com.
They have a wide selection of different colors, sizes, patterns of
circle lenses. In the end I decided on their Wonder Eye Blue
(Super Nudy Blue) which is shown in the picture below.^ ^

Item details
Weight: 0 kg, 100 grams
Brand: Wonder Eye
Diameter: 14.7mm
Water Content: 38%
Base Curve: 8.6mm

These lens really enlarged my eyes alot,but tends to make
them a bit on the dry side. The color isn't as bright as
in the photos unless you use flash,but I still like them.

Clarins - Self Tanning Instant Gel Review

2010-05-07T11:45:00.000-07:00

This is truly a really great product for those who don't want sun exposure or going to a tanning salon. After all tanning can cause/increase the chances of skin cancer and of course we all don't want that.

Here's a description from Sephora
What it is:
A self-tanning gel to bring out healthy color in the skin.

What it is formulated to do:
This lightweight and non-oily gel promotes a natural, golden tan for face and body without sun exposure. It's instantly absorbed, so there's no need to wait before dressing, with results in just two hours. Clarins Self Tanning Instant Gel is ideal for those who wish to maintain a year-round tanned appearance.

It actually took me three applications to see a golden tan to my skin. I really like how it's a clear gel unlike some other instant tanning products that is literally deep brown, kinda scary if you ask me. Since there isn't any color on the gel, you have to be very careful that you cover ever spot of your body or where you want it to be tanned. There is a slight smell to this product,but it's not too strong compared to most tanning products. Rating:☆☆☆☆

Alice in Wonderland

2010-03-08T22:06:00.000-08:00

Alice in Wonderland is finally out in theaters !! I just saw it with one of my girlfriends the other night and I was so good !!! Originally I had no intentions of watching it because from the previews I looked rather scary...=/ But now I'm really glad I watched it ^ ^ It's a very touching story and Johnny Depp did a marvelous job playing Mad Hatter. I'm also excited and even more inspired to use my Alice in Wonderland Palette by Urban Decay I bought last month from Sephora. You know when you get something brand new and it's so pretty that you just dont want to ruin it lol well that's one of the reasons why I haven't played with it yet and also the palette is a limited edition collection ^ ^

Mini Slurge

2010-03-04T15:33:00.001-08:00

After class I went on a mini splurge =x BUT with my christmas giftcard ! ahaha Took a trip to Forever21 and bought 1 mickey mouse tank, 1 skirt and 3 necklace ^ ^ Can't wait to wear them !! ^ ^ Haven't decided which outfits to go with the necklaces yet,but I'm sure I can piece something together.

After my mini splurge at Forever21, drove over to McDonalds !! muahahha and ordered myself a mini McChicken meal along with a small side salad ^ ^ And it's all under $5 ! What a deal ! ahahah Yes I actually finished it all and it was soOoo GOOD ! lol

Sparkle, Glitter and Bling !

2010-03-04T09:05:00.000-08:00

Other then makeup and hair, I really love getting my nails done. Luckily, I found a great place that does a really great job. Although I have to tell them where to place the gems lol I recently got my nails done just french white glitter tips with pearls and rhinstones to give them some sparkles ^ ^

As for makeup I love using glitter as well, especially if my clients are going for the evening look. It's a great way to brighten and make your eyes stand out more.

Being random here's a pix of my iphone ^^ Gotta bling that out too ya know ! ahaha

Highlighter and contour in one sexy sweep

2010-03-01T21:02:00.000-08:00

This post is for Sandy who previously asked about Benefit's Perfect 10(box o' powder), which is a bronzing & highlighting face powder duo. The pink shimmer on the left makes the skin appear softer and highlighting while the right half bronzer help with contouring, to pronounce your cheekbones more. If you don't have cheekbones like myself it really helps achive the illusion of having cheekbones. ^ ^

Tips:
1. Don't use the brush that's included, it picks up too much powder, so I highly recommond any fluff brush.
2. You can always suck in your cheeks or pucker up lol in order to know where to apply bronzer. As for highlighter apply on top of the cheekbones.^^ Don't worry, no one is watching lol I do it too, see ! lol

Another random yet boring day indeed, so I decided to take some pictures ! I'm sure most of us enjoy looking at photos more so than reading a long blog, right? Cause that me ! well most of the time lol In this set of photos is a little different from my last set is because I actually pinned back my bangs for those who didn't realize it lol trying to let them grow out is a b*%#H. I swear bangs gets old fast, and I mean fast ! After about a week or two I got really tired of them unforunately...wish my hair grew faster. Alright, that's it for my rambling for today lol

Super Model in a Bottle

2010-02-17T22:06:00.000-08:00

High Beam from Benefit is one of my most favorite products. It's great for highlighting as well as giving you that healthy looking glow to your skin. Always apply your blush first, then dab and blend high beam to the apples of your cheeks. Another area of highlighting apply the same technique on your brow bone to give that lift under your eyes as well as brightening it up. You can also mix a small amount of high beam with your moisturizer or liquid foundation for a all over healthy glow/dewy look. When mixing high beam with your moisturizer or foundation I highly recommend using a foundation brush just because you're touching throughout your face which can use bacteria and causes breakouts. If you don't have a brush yet really consider getting one. Most brushes can last up to 10 years if kept well and of course wash them at least once a week. ^ ^

A Good Day ^ ^

2010-02-14T22:38:00.000-08:00

[ L.O.V.E. ] Everyone has their own experiences and definition for the term love. When we hear the term love, most of us would think of a significant other. I’ve realized and learned that love comes in all shapes,sizes and forms; from little to a lot of love, from family, friendship, and pet and of course of your other half. Love is always around even when a relationship is over. One might think that the other person no longer loves them, but the truth is love has always been around just that one might have loved the other more.I really hope that everyone will cherish those who are around them and not only take Valentines Day to celebrate your love for them, but rather everyday at least that's what I think ^^

I also want to wish everyone a Happy Valentines Day as well as Happy Chinese New Years ! Hope everyone was able to celebrate this special day with all their loved ones. As for myself, I actually spent most of my day at work...=/ eh? lame huh ? lol However after work I got to spend sometime with my family watching T.V. for a bit ^ ^ afterwards I had to hit the books for one of my exams. Got a lot of work done, a very productive day indeed AND I sold over $1000 in makeup YAY !

NARS - Blush

2010-02-10T15:20:00.000-08:00

YAY ! Another trip to Sephora, the makeup land. ^ ^ I picked up a new blush the other day by NARS - Angelika, a very soft shimmery pink. My favorite combination with Angelika is my One Hot Minute from Benefit. One Hot Minute is a rose gold loose powder for a soft sun kissed look and of course you can pair either of these two items with your favorite blush or bronzer. I apply Angelika with a soft slanted fluff brush and a fan-tail brush for One Hot Minute, it's great for soft layering and easy contouring. I also bought Urban Decay's - Alice in Wonderland their limited edition palette which i'll be reviewing next time ><"

Prescriptives Blush

2010-01-07T19:37:00.001-08:00

Bought two blushes last night at Macys from the Prescriptives counter. They're having a 30% discount off everything !!! Colors however are limited because everything is being sold out really fast. Unfortunately, the discount is only vaild at local Macys because they're no longer selling their products at retail stores, online only. Each blush was only $12.25, orginally they were $17.50 each. What a deal ~!!! I took the opportunity and bought two new blush for spring ^^ I purchased Pink Plum and Pink Horizon. (left-right)
