Review: Lip gloss

Hi guys!

This week I've been loving Daiso products. I came across these while I was browsing around. They are just called Lip Gloss and of course, all of Daiso products are $2.80 and since they where so cheap, I wasn't expecting these to be super good quality.

Left to right: No.65, 62, 64

These come in 2 other colours; a clear glittery gloss and another one which was sold out. When I swatched these I was so amazed as to how pigmented they where! No. 65 is a nude colour with small amounts of gold shimmers in it. The glitters aren't that visible unless you stare at it for a really long time. No.62 is a red/orange coral colour and has visible gold shimmers in it. The glitters don't feel grainy on the lips at all! No.64 is my favourite because it doesn't have glitters in it and it's the most pigmented out of all of them. It literally is like a liquid lip stick! 

One thing I did notice though, which isn't really a big deal, is that these are actually made in Korea. 

Pros:

very pigmented

glitters don't feel gritty on the lips

cute packaging

you don't get too much product on the applicator

not sticky at all!

Cons:

the only con for me is the smell. They all have the same smell but it doesn't have a horrible scent to them. I would like it better if they all had different scents to them.

Overall if you guys see these around, definitely grab a hold of these! For only $2.80 you can get really good quality glosses and they're great for everyday wear!

See you soon! ^_^

Nails of the week

Hi guys!

So last week I was wearing OPI's Black Cherry Chutney. It's one of my go to colours when I feel like wearing nail polish and of course the formula of it is great! It dries really quickly and it didn't chip until the 5th day! Which is kinda crazy considering I use my hands alot. 

Rating: 5/5

This weeks polish:

Winmax New York, Light Color Nail Enamel in NO. 150

I mentioned this in my recent Daiso haul and I couldn't help but try this out. And so far so good! It's a sheer polish and is great if you want some colour on your nails but still want your natural nails to be visible. I only one coat and it looks really nice. It's a baby pink polish when you look at the bottle, but on the nails, it's more of a off white. When I first applied it, it looked kinda streaky but when it dries it doesn't look streaky at all. 

Will report on the formula and the wear of it next week. See you soon! ^_^

DAISO!!

Hi guys!


Just recently my friend Olivia went to the new Daiso store in the city. If you guys don't know what Daiso is then it's like a Japanese version of the $1 store. In Japan it would be about 100 yen, so everything I bought was $2.80. And after my Lancome Haul, I thought I might try out some of the cheaper stuff.

I decided to get this because I found that the brush that I bought from The Body Shop was a bit too harsh on  my skin, so I thought I would try this out since so many bloggers and youtubers use one of these as well. They also come in blue and pink.

I needed something like this to put my Innisfree Mineral powder in since it isn't enclosed in anything and feel like if I just dip my brush in it then all of the powder will get contaminated and I would get too much product.

I went around to the places I knew that stocks on Asian cosmetics and skincare and I picked up some more My Beauty Diary Face Masks.

So that's all I got today, and hopefully I don't buy anything else for the next week... going broke... See you soon! ^_^

K talk: Top 3

Hi guys!


So this post isn't going to be beauty related or fashion related, but more of a topic I'm super crazy about, which is KOREA!!! If you guys found me through Soompi, then you will know that  Soompi is a site which discusses anything and everything about Korea. I wanted to make this a weekly thing which I discuss all different topics such as dramas, fanfics, music and all of that good stuff.


This post will be about my top 3 songs, bands, dramas and variety shows at the moment. So here it goes!

Lancome Purchases!!

Hi guys!


If you guys just read my last post, I mentioned that I went to the Myer Master Class featuring Michelle Phan.  I was only intending to get one or two things, but I ended up splurging on a whole bunch of stuff, but in doing so, I saved quite alot of money when you compare to how much I would have spent if I bought each item individually. 

Each person that goes will be able to redeem the tickets for a Lancome product valued at $50

Booklets and free magazine valued at $5.95

Limited Edition Glamour Eyes kit. Personally put together by Michelle herself.

Fresh and Luminous eyes kit

Top left to right: Ombre Hypnose shadow (full size), Definicils Mascara (full size) and Le crayon Khol pencil liner (sample size)

More free samples from the event!

Rough In Love lipstick sample in 322 Corail In Love

Genifique eye cream. So much product for a sample!!!

Bi- Facil oil eye make-up remover

Another sample of the pencil eye liner

Kerastase shampoo

I'm SUPER excited to try all of these new products! I have tried the Le Crayon Khol liner and I didn't really like it because it was too soft for me. I prefer a harder pencil because that way the liner doesn't go onto my lashes. I've also tried the Hydra Zen Neocalm moisteriser and it worked wonders for my skin! I'm so glad I got a sample of it! I almost screamed when I found it in the sample bag. I also got the Hypnose Mascara sample previously and didn't really like it. It made my lashes clump and didn't hold my curl well. But Olivia said that the sample is NOT compareable to the full size. 

I'm really looking forward to trying out the Definicils Mascara and the Doll eyes Mascara since I've heard so many good reviews on it, and also the Bi-facil. Definitely going to try out the eye cream! I've been looking for a hydrating eye cream.

If you guys have any other Lancome product recommendations then please leave a comment below. See you soon! ^_^
