Tarte-bejeweled-eyeslash-curler
My all time favorite Lash Curler is my Shiseido and a gold Shu Uemura that a friend gave me. But this Tarte Bejeweled Lash Curler makes me want to get another one. Not only because it is purple but because it has great reviews as well.

In the meantime, check this article on how to curl your lashes like a pro!

Hello Kitty X Sephora

January 19th, 2011

I know I should be checking tips on burning belly fat rather than checking out beauty products but this is my first love and when my mood is a little low, make-up has proven to be my favorite upper :P .

Moving on.
Oh this Sephora Hello Kitty Limited Edition collection is just too hard to resist! It’s sooo pretty and a girl is never too old for Hello Kitty but if I were to pick one, I’ll only get the brushes.

There’s the pampered creature of luxury, the chocolate-hued Burmese, the wild and sleek ginger Ocicat, and the plush and privileged sable Russian Blue. It’s everything compelling we loved on the catwalk…chic, couture-inspired and cunningly compulsory!!!

Lustrous and gorgeous, with an ounce of danger for good measure, Fabulous Felines is an elegant standout. Now, strut your stuff, walk the walk and strike a pose!

Lash DNA.

May 2nd, 2010

I had my own story of lash perming, you know the way salons do it permanently, well, permanent for at least 3 months. The only thing I did not like about it is when the curls start to wear off and I have irregular eyelashes. A make-up artist friend told me that this process also lessens the growth of your lash and eventually leaving your eyes with lesser eyelashes. Yikes! So for those looking for a product that would help your lashes grow more in terms of volume, this Smashbox Lash DNA Mascara looks promising. Off to check out these  spring plungers before I log off. Have a blessed week ahead everyone :) .

Did you have an awesome TGIF? We did feast on this fish food (because it’s meat-less Friday again), stroll a few hours in the mall, played with DS and his Lego creation, sip a little wine and now ready to doze off and bid goodbye to the hectic week! But before we say goodbye to the week that was, here’s a freebie I managed to get from THIS SITE!

Maybelline Watershine Collagen Shimmers + Volum Express Hypercurl Cat Eyes Mascara

February 16th, 2010

This Express Hypercurl Cat Eyes Mascara got me curious as soon as I opened it because of the comb-like brush. Maybelline’s reputation with Mascara has always been outstanding and this particular one did not fail me :P . It gave an extra omph to my lashes and the comb-like brush can direct where I want my lashes to go and emphasized,  now you know why it’s called cat eyes. It also made the fine lashes easier to reach. No smearing for the entire day of application.
IMG_1234I still have to try out the other lipstick but this particular Maybelline Watershine Collagen Shimmers in shade B23 made my lips plump and the shade is perfect for spring. Just make sure to line your lips with one shade darker lipliner to make it more defined.

Done blogging for the day. Hopping on to check this health insurance in NC and then I’m working out and it’s movie night with the husbo :P . Nytynyt y’all!

Maybelline Loot.

February 16th, 2010

Two weeks ago, I received this package full of Maybelline Loot plus a bagtag which I find very cute in the mail. I was not expecting this to come after I spoke with my friend who was supposed to send this last year haha. So yes, this loot came my friend, H, who is one of Maybelline’s NY Color Artists and he would often give me a portion of his make-up allowance. hee hee. This was what he sent me, a first Maybelline loot in 2010. Looking forward to more freebies this year.

Too Faced Lashlight

December 18th, 2009

The first time I chanced upon this Too Faced LashLight was when I was checking on this order fulfillment site. Amazing I must say, another first from Too Faced brand. You can now clearly see the stubborn and very minute lashes for that fuller look. An extensive review and photos can be found HERE. I guess for the price of $25.00, it’s worth the try.

LASHLIGHT
What it is:
An innovative mascara formula containing millions of microscopic mirrors that bounce light off lashes for a super-glossy, jet-black finish with an exclusive light up wand to spotlight each lash for the most precise application possible.
What it does:
LASHLIGHT is formulated to thicken, lengthen, and condition while coating lashes with the glossiest of jet-black finishes to make eyes look brighter, whiter, and camera ready. A combination of Panthenol and Vitamins C and E keep lashes healthy and Red Algae increases Keratin resistance for maximum lash flexibility. The patented formula contains millions of microscopic mirrors that bounce light off lashes for the deepest, jet-black finish that lasts all day.
What else you need to know:
The slightly tapered brush-tip gives you access to even the tiniest lashes, while perfectly spaced bristles give length and separation without tangles and clumps. Also, the exclusive light-up LED wand spotlights every lash for the perfect mascara application every time and the close-up mirror on the side of the component is perfect for on-the-go application.
Size: 0.31 oz
