Bella box and SATC lashes


I first heard of Bellabox when I was flipping Cleo Magazine a while back. I thought it was kind of an interesting website as the Bellabox team actually handpicks the 5 latest beauty products and mail them to your door every month. (Item ranges from lip gloss, make up to shampoos) Once you have tried the products and love them, make a purchase over it online!

I thought that this will definately save everyone the hassle of us going to a department store, buying a product and then find out either you hate it or it doesnt suit you.

Website: http://bellabox.sg

I was surfing the web and I saw they were selling SATC eyelashes by Eylure, i remember reading a review on it and decided to give it a try. As you can guess, it comes in 4 different styles (Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte). I got myself a Charlotte pair of lashie as she is always so elegant looking!

Beautiful packaging from Bellabox

Comes with the adhesive glue

A closer look on the eyelash

Review: I dont think i particularly suits well on this lashie, it doesnt look as natural as i hope it will be. Its way  too long and sparse, probably better for girls with bigger eyes.

But Bellabox is definately worth a try for those beauty junkies that want to get the most updated beauty products every month to your door step.

I've been Jill-ed

Its been a while since I last update my blog as I have been so tied up with work! Nonetheless, back to stuff that I love - make up!!
I got my friend to get me some of Jill Stuart products from Taiwan. Their packaging is definitely to die for - yes, its not wrong to be a sucka for packaging sometimes =p 
I got myself a compact powder, jelly eye and an eye-lash curler.

This is the first Coffret D'or and Lavshuca products I got and I am totally in love with it. I am a big shimmer fan and what each of the pallette have are soft glitters that are not overly the top, just the way i like it. ^ ^

Review: CanMake Cream Cheek

CanMake cream cheek is one of the blusher I am using right now. Personally, I find that it is good to have different shades of blusher. I will recommend at least 2 shades, one in rosy pink and the other in peach colour (It can be either powder/cream).

The colours are really pigmented so you do not want to over apply at one go.
You can use a sponge / a clean finger and dab the colour on the center of the cheek. Make sure it's evenly blended. This will then give your cheek a glow as it have a micro-shimmer on it.

Note: This is more suitable for dry/normal skin types. I have a sensitive type of skin and this works fine for me.

Peach blush is definitely one of the colour to own this season!

Review: Revlon Colorburst Lipstick

I was not a real lipstick kind of girl. Lipstick shade is so important that no matter how gorgeous someone can look, if it's the wrong shade..everything will go downhill!!
After reading lots of beauty blogs and watching tons of make up videos, I notice that once a girl put something on their lips, be it a lip balm or a gloss, it could make their whole appearance to another level. They appear to be "brighter" looking.
I have been a fan of the "nude" kinda look , so what is a better way to conquer my fear than starting from a nude shade of lipstick. I got myself Revlon Colourburst Lipstick and I got to say, i totally LOVE them!! Not only are the price much affordable than counter products, the quality of the lipstick are amazing. It's creamy and the colours are absolutely gorgeous.
I definitely recommend this particular shade to those that are just beginning to try out using a lipstick.

I am totally in love with this shade right now and will definitely try to venture on other shades of colour going forward!!

Review : Kate reflect mirror eyes

For those of you who likes the 'light' make up look, this is something you might want to try.
The colours are more shimmery than pigmented. It gives you the glittery look with a hinch of goldish-brown tone which I really like.

KATE - reflect mirror eyes BR-1



I generally like this eyeshadow, but you cant really use it by itself for an everyday use as it is very very shimmery. With that being said, if u were to use a matt eyeshadow and dap a little of these colours on top of it, it will give you the right amount of pop you need for your eyes to sparkle.

Urban Decay - Naked

There are tons of good reviews on Urban Decay-Naked pallete from make up blogs and youtube videos. Because of that, i have been trying to get hold of this palette for myself but it has been sold out for quite some time. So, last week when I heard that Sephora finally stocked this pallete up, I knew I have to get hold of them immediately. Thank god  one of my girlfriend, Merlyn was at Sephora on that day and she managed to get one for me!! Last I heard was the the palette is already sold out (within 5 days).

After getting hold of this palette, I totally understand where the many good reviews came from. 
The palette comes with 12 shades of beautiful eye shadows, a duo colour eyeliner and eyeshadow primer. All the colours are absolutely gorgeous, very pigmented and easy to apply. I can see myself wearing each and every single one of the colours be it for a 'day' or a 'night' look which makes this a good pallette to have when you are travelling ( though I have to say that it might be a little too big for your make up pouch).

ZA Two-Way Foundation

ZA Two-Way Foundation by Shiseido is my all time favourite foundation. This is the first foundation I bought when I was 15 and I have been using it ever since. Reason being you can get this in any drug store like Watson's and the price is affordable.

There are a total of 8 shades for this collection and all of them contains SPF20 PA++. ZA Two-way foundation can be applied both dry (I would normally go for this) or wet (for better coverage). The reason I love this foundation so much is that it is not only easy to apply/blend but it gives a very natural finish too!

Every now and then, ZA will have a limited edition collection especially during the holiday season. This is a must-grab as it comes with a super cute packaging and a definite value for money

Limited Edition Set @33.50ea

It comes with a pouch, cosmetic case and 2 refills

I love their sparkly design

I got mine in shade no. 22
