Magic Of Makeups

It seems that I can't go a month without buying any makeup. Or accessories. Or clothes. Or shoes. Sighz.

The following pictures will prove my point.

I knew I wanted to get the Revlon Nail Enamel in 115 Peach Petal ever since I saw it on the lovely Jen here. And since it was going for SGD$8.90 at Watson's, I grabbed it (cheaper than if it was on 20% off!).

As for the lipglosses, they were BOGO, so I grabbed the two colours (170 Coral Reef & 150 Peach Petal) that I had been eyeing ever since they first came out. I haven't tried them yet but from the testers, I think they're gonna be pretty sheer. Which is no biggie, cos it would mean that they wouldn't affect  the colour of whatever base lipstick I would be using. I love drugstore makeups! :)

The above eyeshadow palettes came from Muji. Like the concept of the brand itself, they were simply named Brown and Green respectively.

I attempted to swatch them but it was so bloody difficult to get my lao ya (= lousy) camera to focus on my fingertips =.=

I ended up with these:

At least can still see something lah hor? 8-P I think the darkest 2 shades of each palette are gorgeous hee.

And now we come to the Guerlain Ombre Eclat (I don't even know how to pronounce these words!) single eyeshadows!

Don't they look fine?

Eeks! Totally blur and out of focus picture! Gah. But trust me, they look waaay better in real life.

On top of these, I was also on an accessories buying spree. Prices ranged from $6.90 - $21.90.

Actually some of these pieces have been lying around forever. I just happened to dig them all out while clearing my desk.

It's amazing how many earrings I can still buy even though my ears are not pierced right? They're just too pweety...

Okie gtg. Ciao!

Miz Rowena over at cosmetic-candy was having a blog sale so I decided to take some stuff off her hands. Forgive the blurry pictures. I was using my handphone camera.

A pity that the chewy sweets she included burst out of their wrappers and ruined the packaging for the Twilight lipgloss.

Yup you read me right. I bought a lipgloss which has got the word 'Twilight' embossed on it. I'm nuts, I know. And it doesn't help that the lipgloss smells nasty and has gritty pieces of glitter in it. Yuck. I can't help but wonder if the other products on this site are worth checking out (not that I will of cos). Total waste of money man.

I haven't really tried out the rest of the goodies, except for the Too Faced Lock Down Cream Eyeshadow. Maybe I'll give the NYX eyeshadow a go soon.

There were sales and promotions everywhere, and I couldn't resist the temptation. I shopped up a storm at Watson's, The FaceShop, Nature Republic and Sasa (as you can see).

I also picked up a few bottles of nail polishes which I forgot to photograph. Maybe I'll do a nail polish collection post another time.

As promised, here's a coral/bronzey themed look.

I actually tried to follow this tutorial:

This was the best I could do with the colours I had on hand.

1. Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion
2. NYX Jumbo Eyeshadow Pencil in Milk
3. Milani Runway Eyes in 08 Catwalk (Red, Orange)
4. Revlon ColorStay 12 Hour Eye Shadow in 13 Lavender Meadow (Dark Purple)
5. Urban Decay Deluxe Shadow Box (Ransom)
6. Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-on Eye Pencil in Lust
7. Elf Super Glossy Lip Shine SPF 15 in Candlelight
8. Stila Sun Bronzing Powder in Shade 02 (to contour)
9. Prestige Skin Loving Minerals Sunbaked Mineral Bronzing Powder in 03 Pure Shimmer (to highlight)

Hmmm actually it looks more purplish than coral huh.

Well no choice cos my lid area is tiny compared to Julie's!

Even after layering on the bronzer, I still looked quite pale =.=

Funny face time!

What look should I do next?
