Not a look I'll usually do.

For this look, I didn't use any eye primer. I applied SMH e/s (Protege) lightly on the eye area as the base color, then intensify the color more at the lid area. The burnish red effect at the outer crease area is created by layering SMH e/s (Bondage) on top. Blending is the key. The tinge of silverish color is SMH e/s (Electra-fied) just above the upper lash line. To define the eyes, I used Kiss Me Heroine Make Smooth Liquid Eyeliner close to the upper lash line with a slight wing. For the bottom lashline, I used Sephora Jumbo Liner 12HR Wear Waterproof (15 Purple).

To add some oomph to my eye lashes, I curled 'em using Koji eyelash curler no.73 before applying Kiss Me Heroine Make Volume & Curl Mascara. I layered on Fasio Hyper-Stay Mascara Magne-Plus Curl Volume to define the lashes.

Eyebrows: Shu Uemura Hard 9 Brown 03 Eyebrow Pencil & KATE Eyebrow Color LB-1

It's been a whole week since my last post. Now, on to Part 2 of my Undeclared Hauls & Gifts 2010.

This was a Dior sale haul, which coincided with Shiseido sale haul (not posted as yet). A day of massive hauling, indeed. I almost grabbed ALL the Dior quints =.= Well, almost. It was really hard to choose which to get !! And the price was IRRESISTIBLE !!

009 Sky Glow.

Got myself 2 lippies as well. Rouge Dior Replenishing Lip Color 858 Red Scene and 434 Interview Pink.

I knew I had to get my hands on this after reading Lotus Palace blog.

Something from Kanebo ?

What could it be for $118 ?!

Kinokuniya time.

Disappointed buy. agnès b. canvas tote bag. It actually comes with a red heart keychain which I forgot to take photo of.

Awesome buy. Super kawaii HbG bag. Many may find it kiddy. I don't care what others think, as long as I like it (:

Even the lil' HbG keychain is irresistibly kawaii max !! Agree ? :p

I got myself another Fred Perry tote bag ! Their tote bags are always well-made IMO.

Another disappointing buy. I don't like this YSL bag. Not really well-made IMO. Photos are deceiving !!

Taiwan Beauty magazine Oct'10 issue featuring Elva Hsiao.

Women's Weekly Nov'10 with free Nivea Sparkling White Whitening Day Care.

Bazaar Oct'10 with free $20 Häagen-Dazs voucher and a gold ice-cream spoon (not in photo).

Bought this from Vion, which I forgot all about it =.= HK New Monday magazine with free Adidas 2-way tote bag (purple).

Paul & Joe floral pouch set which was free with Japanese magazine purchase. Well-made, which makes a good buy !

 

Random hauls.

Bought 'em at Guardian. Now, these are the old packaging BRTC BB Creams.

I bought BRTC Protect Multiplex Balm SPF20 PA++ & Jasmine Water BB Cream SPF30.

Bought these Elianto pearl shine eyeshadows during a sale.

(TWO TO TANGO, ELECTRA-FIED, ULTRA VIOLET, CHARISMA, PARAKEET)

(PROTEGE, BONDAGE, 1492, COUGAR)

After MONTHS & MONTHS of WAITING & WAITING, I finally get my SMH eyeshadows. BUT NOT ALL. FRESH, according to her was OOS. I do understand that SMH customer service is really THAT bad. But then again, many had problems with the person who conducted the spree. Some of the common problems were: not able to get back refunds despite numerous reminders, unable to contact (be it thru' sms-es, emails, calls, PM-s !!). I can't help but wonder if I'll get any refund for my OOS e/s or will the e/s arrive safely in prolly months' time ?? Well, I'm THAT accommodating that I traveled all the way to the west to collect the e/s instead of opting for mail. It was my 1st time joining OnSugar spree and it wasn't a good one. I believe there're others who have worse experience(s) as compared to mine. Oh well ..

I had to buy this coz I forgot to bring my powder out on that fateful day =.= Well, no regrets coz I simply love this new ZA Skin Beauty Two-Way Foundation SPF20 PA++ refill ! Shade 21 though it's tad fair for me but it looks more natural after oxidization. The powder is really fine and it helps to keep my makeup looking fresh and shine-free for hours.

lalala i didn't perm my hair. if i did, the hair stylist is very lousy then LOL xD well, i just simply bun up my hair real tight then release after hours. these loose curls will stay on for quite sometime. if you want it to last longer, just use hair styling products (:

now to the random part :D random dinner with my bro after work. he brought me to a japanese restaurant at cuppage. i was very hungry by that time (around 7plus) and ordered a porky set. he ordered unagi set with tempura, his usual.

when his set came, i was immediately attracted to the two fleshy unagi !! now i know why he always order this ! usually other restaurants serve small and thin unagi, this is so different and looks so damn delicious !! i was literally drooling T_T

mine was not as drool-worthy. in fact, he said that tonkichi porky set is much tastier.. the meat is much more tender & juicy hence the price is twice of this set -,- oh i shared my set with him so that i could eat the unagi hehe :p waaa it's pure orgasm max !! the BEST unagi i've ever eaten !! seriously, it's so delicious you'll be wanting for more hahas !

yea and we ordered this bbq squid. it was wrong order as my bro wanted the buttered one. it didn't look appetizing at all and i was quite sad that we couldn't change order. so i took the first bite.. !!! SO DELICIOUS !!! don't judge food by its appearance that is !!! simple bbq squid but the taste was so fresh and tantalizing. glad that it was wrong order afterall hahas ! AHHH i wanna go back again !

fancy a caffeine fix ? i need a cup at least, daily. now mcd is having a promotion - 2 for $5.95 ! i love mochaccino ♥

just wanna share with you pictures of this cute dog i saw at tampines weeks back.. this lil' dog was wearing shoes and i wonder if the shoes hurt ? anyways, it caught many people's attention and everybody was busy taking pictures of it. cute right ? (:
