LOTD: Sept 8, 2010

I finally remembered to take a picture of my look before going out of the house.

I wanted this look to be simple because I wanted to try wearing false lashes outside of the house. I had a feeling that it would take me a while to do it properly. I did pretty well excet that false lashes on my left eye was not completely sticking to my lid but it wasnt really noticable unless I closed my eyes.

LOTD: Sept 7, 2010

Ok I told you guys that I would do daily looks of the day, apparently I cant do it daily cause there are times I feel way to lazy to put make up on like this Monday I didnt put on any make up hence no LOTD for that day. But anyway here is my LOTD for Tuesday

I took this after I got home, so my make up is not is the best condition even though I did retouch if before taking the pictures

Review and Swatches: Physicians Formula Organic wear eyeshadow duo in Hazel eyes organics

Wow that is one long title LOL, ok enough of that. On with the review

I got this eyeshadow for 399php or around $9 at a store in mall near the place where I work. Aside from make up they sell perfumes, hair care, lotions, food, etc

The packaging on this is really cute and pretty. It's not like all those other eyeshadow duos. The packaging feels like it is made out of hard cardboard with clear plastic on top to protect the eyeshadow and its pretty sturdy but I am not sure how it will react when it gets wet (and I wont take that chance). I really love the leaf design all over the packaging as well as the eyeshadow itself. It's feminine but not overly so. I also like the clear plastic top because I can easily see the eyeshadow inside.






The eyeshadow duo itself has two colors, a frosty light pink shadow and a midtone chocolate brown with a satin finish. Both can be use seperately or together. The texture of both colors are smooth but the light pink side it not as creamy as the brown side.
When you touch the pink side, it feels hard but the brown side feels softer I guess, I cant really describe it properly

Both are easly to blend, the pink side takes a bit of build up on the lids if you dont use an eyeshadow base prior to applying it.

Here are the swatches of the product




As for the lasting power, the color stays on all day but it still creased on me after 7-8 hours which is pretty good since most shadows crease on me after 3-4 hours because I have hooded eyes. Take note that I used a base and eyeshadow primer before applying these shadows.

So to give my blog more updates, I decided to post my Looks of the Day since I now have a cellphone that can take pretty good pictures.

As you can see this is quite late because I forgot to upload this last friday. So anyway here was my look of the day last Friday. Its pretty simple cause I woke up later than expected and coulnd't do much that day

Etude House Haul

Ok the day after I found out about Etude House in Festival Mall I went back there initially to get the shoes I bought changed since I got the wrong pair

I then went to Etude House and decided to buy some polishes. I had a mini budget of 500 php (around $10) so I could get the Pink Membership card there. I actually nearly went to 1,000 php (about $20) because the polishes looked so pretty and I got a couple of eyeshadows as well. Whats funny about that experience is that I had a list of things I wanted to buy before I even payed for the things I got.

Here are the pics of the haul

The really cute packaging

What was inside the bag.

L-R: Nail art pen in red, Frech manicure polishes in white and black (I use these for nail art instead but they do work nicely when you want a french tip), silver nail polis, mauve pink nail polish, top coat and base coat. Eyeshadows in orange and nude

I dont really have the names of the colors because they are in Korean and I cant read Korean yet

Here is the pink membership card but for some reason it turned orange on my cam. The shade of pink of this card is the same the the packaging of Etude House

The free Lee Min-Ho folder I got for my purchase and the info paper about the Pink Membership card which is also pink XD

Then after that I remembered that I wanted to buy some Sally Hansen base/top coat. I got there for a buy one take one promo. Kinda feel stupid though cause I about a base and top coat at Etude House before I got these. I forgot I was planning on buying these

This has nothing to do with the haul since I got this the day before this haul but I just remembered I got this card because of the Pink Membership card from Etude. I got this since this can get me points from the MAC stores here since Rustans is the distributor of MAC here.

I'm going to post some looks after this and a little nail art I did as well

Diversity

I suddenly had this thought after reading my friends blog here http://chenachen.blogspot.com/2010/03/kamotetv-shooting-ikemen-henshins-sm.html

I thought "Oooooh I wanna blog about things like that too" but when I made this blog for the first time I decided that I would just blog about things that I think are important or at least something that wont be considered as spamming but when I did that I could barely blog cause not everything in my life is exciting to others or I just plan forget.

After that when I got into make up I thought I why not make my blog a beauty blog but then that takes a lot of time and money to do that. I also wanted to blog about my life in general now because of what Chena said, that I can blog about anything even if they seem a bit out of the blue. So if I did that this blog would be a mix of all my interest making this place seem chaotic but then I thought "Why not, it just shows that I am intested in quite a few things".

So starting now I'll blog about make up, photography, cosplay, my friends, etc. Anything that would just interest me that I would like to share with everyone. Hence the title of this entry as well the my blog title in Livejournal. I will be only doing this here and in my Livejournal account.

I really had a lot more to say but somewhere while typing this it got lost. So thats it for now cause my head is starting to ache and I need some sleep

Till the next time (which will hopefully be soon)
