Mini MAC Haul

I got a few eye shadows from MAC the other day and thought I would share what some of the swatches look like. I ended up getting (from left to right in the picture): Off the Page, Violet Trance, Stars 'N' Rockets and Glamour Check! Off the Page is a really neat mango kind of colour. The colour pay off is quite good and I don't have any other colour quite like this at the moment so I think it was

FOTD/OOTD

Had to make a run to the post office today (and stop at a couple of stores). The odd time I'll be in a rush (most likely that means the store is closing) and won't have to time to put makeup on. Today I had time to get ready though and this was the look:With flash:Without flash: This was what I used: EYESMAC Indian Wood Paint Pot (all over lid) - I LOVE this colourMAC Beauty Marked eye shadow (

In search of a great hand cream.....

I am searching for a great hand cream. One where I can slather it on at bedtime and wake up with baby soft hands! Or even a really good daytime hand cream that's not greasy yet provides a lot of moisture. I still haven't hit gold for either of those two criteria so my search continues and maybe someone (maybe you!) could make a suggestion for me!In the meantime I thought I would let you know what

FOTD/OOTD Saturday night

I finally feel 100% me this morning when I woke up.I drank far more than my fair share on Friday night - I hooked up with a girlfriend of mine that I hadn't seen in ages and she loves doing tequila shots at the club :) So um, everything was really fun until I got home and was sick 6-7 times over. Yesterday all day I was still feeling dizzy with little appetite but now I'm fine! I exerted self

FOTD

I can't stand picture uploading on Blog! Egh! I must be doing something wrong because:(1) everytime I upload a picture it goes straight to the top of the post even if my curser is somewhere mid way done the page when I click "Add Image" button(2) darn pictures leave so much gap in my blog that I end up deleting so much space(3) okay, what the heck! These pictures are not easy to rearrange

My favourite face cleanser

I've been using two face cleansers for a while now and they seem to independently do the jobs I need them to. I have sensitive skin and have had a lot of allergic reactions to different products, particularly anything soap based (liquid bath soaps, face cleansers, some shampoos..etc...).First off, the Neutrogena Fresh Foaming Cleanser is what I use to get the gunk off my face (the gunk I'm

Best Lip Balm Ever!

I was at my parent's house visiting for the past couple of nights and I had forgotten to bring along my favourite lip balm. It was then that I realized how crappy my other option was. I was stuck with the Neutrogena Lip Moisturizer SPF 15 lip balm:Yep, that was the lip balm lying around on my desk in my bedroom at my parent's place. Before I get into why I don't favour this lip balm, I should

What I bought this past weekend....

Soooo, my younger sister is in town for a couple of weeks and of course we went shopping together. I picked up a few things from Forever 21, H & M, Urban Behaviour and some perfume as well :)First, this dress is from Forever 21. It's a faux leather fitted dress - I thought it would be great for clubbing!I also got a bracelet from Forever 21. It's a silver metal bracelet and it seems that chains

Michael Kors Handbag

On Monday my younger sister, my parents and I went to Buffalo and I picked up this lovely small handbag from Micheal Kors: A close up of the label but my camera sucks!What it looks like opened:This is my second MK bag and although I favour larger handbags, I do need a couple of small ones for an evening out or for clubbing even. I know this is more of a spring and summer bag but I'll probably

Friday Dinner & Forever 21 Dress Haul

Yesterday my plans got scrapped to go clubbing (see Scavenger Hunt post) so I ended up meeting up with some friends at Fairview Mall. From there we all went to get some Malaysian food for dinner at Restoran Malaysia:http://www.restoranmalaysia.com/I ended up getting the Malay Curry with Beef, roti and rice. The curry was pretty good. The roti I found a bit disappointing - it was more sweet than I

Digital Scavenger Hunt

When was the last time you went on a scavenger hunt?! I can't remember if I've ever really done one - except the little chocolate easter egg hunt that I may have done as a child. But I'm pretty sure a lot of us have done the easter egg chocolate hunt LOLSo, my friend Glenn invited me out to a Digital Scavenger Hunt this past Thursday. The concept is to solve 12 out of 15 of the clues that were

Urban Decay Eye Shadows

I got a couple of Urban Decay eye shadows today :) These are already two UD eye shadows I have at the moment and I'm actually hitting pan on them both...but since I like them so much, I decided to pick up an extra one of each today: the first one is Last Call and the second one is the deluxe shadow called Zero. Last Call: If I use just one colour on my lid when I'm in a rush, I'll most often

My Boyfriend's Birthday :)

Sunday (August 9th) was my boyfriend's birthday. His name is Evgueni and I love him dearly.Here's a cute picture of him with my beloved pet guinea pig. Isn't that such a cute picture?!We spent a quiet evening in together, which is what he always prefers. I've been with my boyfriend for nearly two years this coming September. He holds a very special place in my heart and I thought I would share a

Hi Everyone!

Hey Everyone! I suddenly got this urge today to jump on the blogging band wagon like many others. I follow a number of blogs that are pretty much makeup and fashion blogs.....I think my blog will be a mix of things and perhaps just ramblings of my life here and there :) So feel free to say hi and share about yourself!
