Orly Goth

Hey Girls,

Tried out a new colour today, well, not really new as I've got alot of black ones lying around.

It goes opaque on 2nd coat. Upon 1st coat, it doesn't even apply streaky but I'm really used to 2 coats manicure at least.

This has a black base with silver glitter. It's very minimal, which is exactly what I like. Overloading in glitter just makes me crazy when removing.

PS: Was too lazy to do a proper clean up though. Sorry!!

Just Bought: Laneige Balancing Emulsion Light

Hello Girls,

Been really unhappy with the korean moisturiser that I'm using current. I won't be able to give you the name because it's all in Korean wordings.

Anyway, the first time using it, it cleared my acne (chin, around nose - everywhere) and whiteheads (forehead). I used that particular moisturiser a couple of years back and last December - I ran out of it because I gave the last pair of moisturiser (1 night and 1 day cream) to my sister who has the same problem as me. My skin was crystal clear and I was able to go out without having to use any face powder and the sort. So I thought "OK, looks like my skin is clear of all the bad stuff".

By mid of January this year, one by one, the pimple start popping - particularly the area of my chin, around my nose and above lip area. The whiteheads which was cleared before, started coming back one by one and I panicked. So I got it again in February in the hopes that it'll go back as how it was before the first time using it. Sadly, it's still not good enough for me.

I'm into the 7th month of usage now. There are still minority of whiteheads and the occasional zits during the time of the month.

Sorry for the sad post but, but but!!! I finally bought the Laneige Balancing Emulsion Light. Well, still need time for it to arrive KL though. I will be doing a full review of it once I use about half of the bottle!


Useless post, I know but.... just wanted to share the excitement! Wish me luck!

Have any of you used this before? Does it really moisturised your face to the max as it claims? Does it reduce the oiliness of your skin?

Essie She's Picture Perfect

This is actually more to lilac rather than baby blue. I couldn't even capture the right colour with both natural light and warm light! But anyway, the 2nd picture is almost what our naked eye could see.

This is 2 coats and it's a great formula. It has very very fine and minimal pinkish shimmer which I'm unable to capture as well. At least it's not a bland creme!

OPI Warm & Fozzie

I've got a few nail polishes lately. Here's one of them. It's OPI Warm & Fozzie from The Muppet Collection.



Look at that! Isn't it gorgeous? It's did such a good work bling-ing my nails. It's like I have gold on my nails, well, not really gold but you get the jizz right?


Took this picture to show you how colourful the foils are. However, I wonder how it'd be when it's time to do my manicure again? Will update soon on that!

Update: Removing this polish is a nightmare. But definitely easier than removing large foils. But still.... argh!

Skin Food Argan Oil Silk Hair Essence

So, I'm in the stage of looking for the best hair serum/oil/repair treatment at the moment. My hair has become really dry, because earlier this year I decided to colour my hair of a light brown (but in reality, the colour chart shows that it's dark blonde but of course looks of a light brown on Asian hair) and that usually means more % of peroxide (or whatever they call the hair dye mixer).

I tried so many products and I got this one when I was in Seoul in March this year.


It's Argan Oil and I've read that this is really good for the hair bla bla bla. It's about RM30+ and I've checked Skin Food in KL and it seems to be selling at RM60?! Crazy right?! Well, I'm the sort of person who will only buy a product which originate from their own country to save on my money. That is of course if I ever visit that country or if my siblings are. :D


It does have some perfume smell to it but after application, you won't be able to notice that smell anymore. I use 2 pumps for the bottom half of my hair and 2 pumps for the top half. I feel that just 1 pump or 2 pumps for the whole head is not enough. Plus, my hair's a bit longer now. :D Been waiting forever for the hair to grow out and I notice that it's pretty fast.

Verdict: It did somehow moisturised my hair but then again I'm not sure if this is the product that made it more moisturised than usual because I'm using a few different products every few days. LOL But, this oil is worth it!! Get it girls!

Missha M Super Black Brush Pen Liner

I got another eyeliner - AGAIN! Yes, I know. I have a ton of them now but, while I was in Seoul back in March 2012, I was walking from an exit to the train platform, I passed by Missha.

My sister told me about Missha before but I didn't take notice of it. I believe that they don't even have a counter/store here in Malaysia? If they do, please let me know!!


The liquid eyeliner was put at the front of the store and I was intrique with the packaging (like always). Later on (when I got back home), I found out that this is their newest line. I think it's the M line. I guess that's why it was at the front of the shop.


It cost me ₩11,800 which is about RM31-ish. So, without looking at the price, I was asking the SA for waterproof liquid eyeliner in black and she suggested me to get this. And finally I paid for it and was shocked at the price. I was thinking of getting a cheap one but, oh well.




The brush is really soft (comparable to Maybelline's Hypersharp Eyeliner). This is obviously in black. When you shake it, there is this ball that you hear rocking back and forth (like a liquid paper tube).




I wanted to show you all how soft the brush is in the picture above but I think it failed. #Angle-problem




Please ignore the top drawn line as I was drawing it so slowy, with my camera on timer for 10 seconds to take picture#4. Just refer to the 2nd drawn line. It's not as black as I want it to be on my hand but trust me, it is blacker than this by 5x when I draw it on my eye.


The surprising thing about this eyeliner is IT DID NOT SMUDGE NOR TRANSFER TO MY UNDER EYELID. I'm serious! I have oily t-zone and practically ALL eyeliners (pen, pencil & even gel) smudge by 11am and I look like I did it on purpose to create that gothic look!


I will never buy another eyeliner in my whole life but this one. I got my lovely dearest brother to get another 2 for me from Seoul! I think I'm gonna get my sister to get me another 1 when she heads to Seoul at the end of the year. Yay!! 

Yes, I still have like 10 eyeliners to finish up before having just 1 favourite eyeliner which is this one. :D



Verdict: Buy this if you have oily eyelids. You will not regret it. Love 100x!!!

L'Oreal Revitalift Eye

Sorry for the month long hiatus. I promised I'll be posting up more post this time 'round!

Anyway, I got this eye cream from Guardian awhile ago. I wanted a cream that is really creamy, instead of watery lotion-ish type of eye cream.

I think this goes for around RM40+. Sorry! Forgot the price but, it's around that range.

Anyhow, it's a 15ml tub - as usual, most eye creams are of this size.


I apply this once in the morning and once at night.


As you can see from the picture, it's of a white creamy consistency but of course it applies on transparent. I really like the consistency though. However, there isn't much difference from the first day I applied it till today. I guess it's probably a few months now?


Look! The tub is almost empty!! I guess it could last me for another 10 applications the most? Well, I'll be trying out another L'Oreal eye cream after this one runs out. I got it in Barcelona El Prat International Airport (special travel package - but it's all full sized tubs) back in January 2012.

Will do a review on that in a few month's time!

Verdict: I will not repurchase this eye cream again unless it is absolutely the only eye cream available in the market.

Let me know what you think. Have you used this eye cream before?
