Look of The Day - In Style Magazine

I love to collect pictures from fashion magazines or just celeb websites and put them on the wall or here in my blog, especially if they have the same style as I do and if I think I have the assets to channel their looks. 

Here is what I got from in style magazine.

Eyebrows

I really don't know what to do with my eyebrows...I am hopeless with these, they are untamed, never groomed and look so gross...

Please please anyone give me some tips on how to do your eye brows

Make-Up for tomorrow

So after quite a while, finally I am going to Amsterdam to meet my best friends during my 'hogeschool' period and have a little fun. I am not sure what I am gonna wear but I did browse on mac website and I think I am gonna put make up like this.

This 'full-face' picture is meant to be used with Blonde, Brunette and Red-head collection. Well...honestly, I don't own any of it, but I have so many brown eye-shadow, I will try to work with what I have.




Another thing, I am so happy that finally my boyfriend is flying back to Germany, meaning that from tomorrow on we can talk freely on the phone after three weeks of almost non existence phone conversations. He had a 9-hour transit in Malaysia, so I asked him to buy me MAC brushes cause I heard that they are a lot cheaper there. Finally, I got my first MAC brushes and they are 109 (face brush for contour) and 217 (eye brush for blending). 

I AM EXTREMELY HAPPY!!

Review: Maybeline Mascaras

So, here I am trying to do a review about two different maybeline mascaras. I love a cheap drug-store brand mascara because it works amazingly and inexpensive. Lately, I bought the new comer, Maybeline the Colossal Volume Express Mascara (the yellow one - see picture below) for around 12 euro (I don't remember precisely) and according to the Maybeline's official website, it's supposed to create nine times the volume instantly with no clumps. But.... somehow, it doesn't do the job for me...I am very disappointed after all.

So this is my bare eye (see, I don't even seem to have any single eye lashes), which I didn't do anything prior to mascara application. I didn't put any mascara primer either. (bear with me -  I don't have any make up on ma face..so it may look a bit scary xD)

Then, I curled my eye lashes on both eyes with my Shu Uemura eye lashes curler (see my review on Shu Uemura's eye lashes curler in the previous entry). So, after the curling process, my eye lashes were raising up on high and then I applied the colossal mascara, it did the job... but it only lasted for a couple seconds (really... literally...after I am done with my other eyes, my eye lashes on which I applied the Maybeline Colossal on have gone down a bit like this... see the picture below!)

And after a day, the lashes would definitely go down like there is no mascara to make it stand up.

Where is the 9x volume which is promised???????

Now, up to the second one, Maybeline Lash Define. I believe the price for this one is about the same range as the colossal one. I bought this one twice already and so far I am very satisfied.


Unlike the Colossal one, this one has a flexible wand. At first, I got so annoyed with it, but now I adore the wand because it can be bent and reach the tiny lashes in the corner of my eyes and near the tear duct area.

According to the website, this Maybeline's eye lashes definition will give your lashes no clumps and create stunning length as well as clean definition, which I think is really true.

So, I did the same step to my bare lashes; after I curled my lashes I applied this mascara instead. Below is the result.


Can you see the difference???? I think this one above is more defined, longer and believe me, it stays like this till the end of the day. Ask my boyfriend for a proof. xD

So... I hope this review is helpful to you guys. Have a good one!

I Finally Found My True Love



I know I was kinda late with this, because I heard about the goodness and the power of Shu-Uemura's eye lashes curler a long time ago but I didn't believe it actually can do the business, because it's just a tool! It (supposedly) doesn't contain any secret ingredients or formula that can make your lashes curl within seconds. 

BUT.....

IT ACTUALLY DOES!!!!!!!

I don't know how, but compared to my old and unbranded eye lashes curler, it's definitely wayyyyy more effective & efficient!! It's worth the money (18 euro), especially if you don't have naturally long and curly eye lashes.

Well, my Shu Uemura's eye lashes curler is just the standard one, like the one in the picture above; but I know there is a new and limited edition 24-karat gold Shu Uemura's eye lashes curler out there, which costs approximately 24 euro. I guess it's just the colour... but maybe I am wrong again this time. But the silver one has been doing his job so perfectly...so why should I care?

Inspiration of the week


I forgot from where I took this picture, I believe from one of the online stores out there. But, she really grabbed my attention...her make up is bold in a good way...I don't know how I can achieve this kinda look. 

Lately, I really got obsessed with eye make up...well or you can say make up in general...
na ja...time to sleep now...

I just realized that even by only putting pictures of things I want in this blog can make me happy... 

nighty night....
