During my last outing at the launch of Clarins Nude Inspirations Autumn/Winter Collection, I was given a Joli Rouge to test out.

Deciding that I have admired it enough, time for review!

This is like..the 3rd lipstick in my entire life. Can you believe it?

Swatch on hand without flash. I must admit that I didn’t fancy this color at first sight, since it looks rather plain and dark.

But I was wrong! Using on my lips is entirely different.

You know why? Not only it smells like Sugus, (the fruity chewy candy we grew up with), it the color turns out nicer on my lips too

Happy Saturday!!!

When I saw the Maybelline Eyestudio Diamond Glow Eyedshadow on the shelf today, I couldn’t help having the devaju. Why are all the palettes in similar shades? Or is it just me?

If you see the pic then you will know:

To be honest, the colors are not that awesome. And I think Silky girl one has better color combinations!

Hehehehee….

After a test, I think the OPI top coat lasted really quite long on my previous nail! So.. I gave in.

And……

Guess what’s inside?

P/S: I love the sticker!

Inspired by Nikki, I was trying to create a ’summer’ nails, and I got Red Indian nails in the end!

This is a pretty simple tutorial, you need:

1. 10 French tip stickers
2. Base and top coat ( i am a fan of Face Shop now, cheap and good)
3. 2 colors of nail polish
4. Dotting tool (nail art tool)

1. Do a base coat, wait till completely dry then stick the french tip in the middle of the nail to separate 2 colors.

2. Then, pick any colors of your choice and just fill in the blanks!

3. Wait till your color is completely dry, peel off the french tip gently. You can actually stop by this step, or use another color to fill in the white blanks. But i somehow think that it looks naked just like that.

Though I was tipped off by Connie much earlier about the Stila clearance sale, i banned myself from stepping into the malls cause i am on a shopping ban.

But I REGRETTED for banning myself!

When I finally decided to go see see, everything is almost gone. I was lucky that this Stila Perfecting Foundation Stick  was the last stock, and it matches my skin tone!

Though I have not heard much raves about this, but being at RM40 from RM125. It is just too hard to resist.

So I got one myself!

Pushing out from the stick is quite easy, and I wonder if this will melt and melt?

I definitely love the portability of this. Can easily slip into pocket, or a small purse.

After reading quite many posts on Vivawoman, i am so inspired by her posts about the power of essential oil in healing. So, I got myself some equipment to experiment it myself. Darn i am always inspired!

One virgin coconut, or any fragrance free base/carrier oil. I bought virgin coconut because it is cheapest of the lot. Pure essential oil should NEVER be applied undiluted directly onto our skin as it will damage our skin. So, we need some base oil to dilute it.

My essential oil: The Body Shop Total Energy essential oil. Retails at RM55.

Key ingredients:

Ginger, Rosemary and Peppermint - Known for stimulating, invigorating and cleansing properties

Lemon, Cadarwood and patchouli - Invigorate the senses and promotes a sense of harmony.

And a cute cock bowl. hehehe i bought it new!

How to mix it?
