Merry Xmas 2009!

Hello guys, what have you been up to?? Tell me about it!
It's been a lonely week for me.. I have to spend my Christmas here without my family.

Therefore, to cheer myself up, I've done some online shopping during this winter break! HoHoHo... :-*
I ordered few items from adambeauty, The Body Shop, Missha, and Sephora.
A lot of websites are having sale right now. If you're also thinking of having a "Christmas Online Shopping Time " like me you can check them out on my blog's side bar. I update them regularly.
So yes more reviews and hauls are coming up soon!

I also have been thinking of doing a makeup tutorial especially for Asians' eyes because most of asians' girls, like me, have no/small eyelids so doing an eye makeup may become a problem for some of us. So yeah I'm working on it.. stay tuned! ;-)




That's about it.. Have a little merry Christmas!
Stay safe and warm..
Love you...

Let me introduce you to my my current life saver.. Trangggg~~~
Rough Interdit Satin Lipsticks collection from Givenchy!
I got them like last week and I fell in love with them..
I have a very dry lips especially in the winter like this... >.< (hate that!) and I'm not a big fan of lip gloss. so I usually prime my lips with lip balm and then layer it with one of these beautiful color.
Try them at Sephora and you will know why I ♥ it so much..

I have them in #11 (Rose Desire), #25 (Rose Caprice), #13 (Tempting Coral), and #23 (Fantasy Pink)



The swatches :
#11 is a very pretty baby pink color (My fave out of these four)
#25 is a pale pink color (didn't show up really well on my lips but might go well with smokey eyes)
#13 is a peach color (Perfect for every season)
and #23 is a HOT pink color! (Compliments the natural eye shadows color)


Unique packaging.. Very pretty..
Totally satisfied with my purchase! :)

Hello everyone! I purchased several Missha's product few weeks ago so I was thinking of having a Haul post. It was my first purchase that I made from them. I ordered online from their US website during Thanksgiving holiday when they were having a 40% disc on their entire website. However, the package just arrived last week. Quite slow compare to other websites which I also shopped at during Thanksgiving.

For those of you who are not familiar with Missha, Missha is a South Korea-based retailer of body, bath, skin care and make-up products. They are Korean road shop brand or equivalent to drug store makeup here in US.
If you live in United States, you can buy it online from here or you can check their store location here

Few things that I got:



Missha Shimmering Oven Blusher #11 in Shimmer Shiner
Missha The Styke Silky Shadow Duo #13 (Natural Heaven) & #7 (Sand Blow)
Missha The Style Dual Eye Tip in BE01
Missha Luminous Color Lip Rouge in CR302


I also received several samples from them:

Missha Garden Pleasure Honey&Lilac Shower Gel
Missha Perfect Cover BB Cream in #23 (Natural Beige)
Missha Super Aqua Hydrating Emulsion
Missha Super Aqua Hydrating Toner


Missha Shimmering Oven Blusher comes in 3 colors : #11 (Shimmer Shiner), #12 (Shimmer Blossoms), and #13 (Shimmer Shade)
I tried their #11 and wouldn't say #11 is a blush, it's more of a highlighter with tons of shimmer in it like its name.
Very pretty packaging. The size is hugeee for a "blush".


It also comes with a nice applicator unlike most of drugstore makeup applicators


Beautiful shimmering white color
(Sorry for the bad pic, I will try to come out with better pic next time)
They are having a sale on Shimmering Oven Blusher right now. You can get it for only $9.99 (regular price is $19.99)




Next is their Eye shadows, I bought #13 (Natural Heaven) & #7 (Sand Blow). Sorry, no swatches because their eye shadows are not very pigmented. Hardly shows on my skin even though I swatch it over and over again. They're very soft though. The only color works for me is the darker brown on the right side of Natural Heaven.


If you want to try their eyeshadow, I recommend you getting this duo eyeshadow/eyeliner instead



It is The Style Dual Eye Tip in BE01
Left is the eyeshadow and right is the liner



And next is the #302 lipstick



Here is the swatch of the #302 lipstick. It's a medium soft coral/orange color with a little shimmer on it but looks matte on your lips. It's not very moisturizing though. It contains SPF 11.



They gave few samples with my purchase

The shower gel is actually pretty good, I love its Honey & Lilac smell, remembered me of good old times

Their bb cream is so-so. I like my L'egere bb cream better. It's also looks grayish compare to L'egere. However, it contains a very high SPF, 42!!! Unbelievable... I might get it solely for a sunscrean purpose. LOL.

Missha Super Aqua Hydrating Emulsion & Super Aqua Hydrating Toner. Both are very good. I have a very dry skin especially in winter. It makes your skin feel fresh and moisturize. May felt a little bit sticky at first but a very very good toner & moisturizer. Definitely a buy.


Let me know what you think of Missha~~~

More hauls and reviews coming up soon!
