Hi friends! I AM BACK FROM MALAYSIA AND SINGAPORE! It's good to be back to the blogging world, I've missed you guys! So I've recently come home from a two week vaykay with my one of my girl friends, Thip, and we bought SO much stuff I don't even know where to begin. Of course I have a massive beauty haul for you guys (and also some fashion pieces too!) I’m loving everything I bought on the trip and everything was well worth the price. Before leaving to Kuala Lumpur, I was researching on what to expect at Sephora in Starhill Gallery as that was my first pit stop! Many reviewers said it was small but decent enough to carry all the beloved brands such as Urban Decay, Tarte, Smashbox, Too Faced, NYX etc - and I think I agree with them. Although, I won’t go into any detail about the layout of the store now but if you have any questions, feel free to drop a comment below! Now let’s get into this exciting haul! 

Cosmetics Haul | January 2014

Hi friends! It's already February, isn't that crazy? It felt like yesterday was just the New Year! Just wanted to start off by saying Happy Belated Chinese New Year to all of you. I hope you have a safe and prosperous year filled with love, happiness and new opportunities! Now for the fun part, first haul of the year!

I made an iHerb order on the 17th and received it on the 28th (longer than I expected but it's okay!) I picked up only four items that I've had my eye on and I thought, why not? I picked up the Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge,  ELF Stipple Brush, ELF Blush in Candid Coral and Tickled Pink. Since it's the start of February, I've actually used some of these products already so I'll just give you guys a quick insight to how I'm liking them!

Tag: This or That?

Hello again everyone! I haven't posted anything for a few days so I thought .. time for another make-up tag before my fashion haul! (Who doesn't love a tag?) 

Let's begin shall we?

1. Blush or bronzer?
   Totally a blush girl, but I've recently been enjoying my bronzer as well! Especially when I apply my Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Bronzer, it smells just like cocoa powder. Yum! 
2. Lipgloss or lipstick?
   Lipstick hands down! I feel like lipstick is much more flexible, easier to apply and have a better selection of colours. I have had many bad experienced with lipglosses because they're either too sticky, no colour payoff or just a pain in the butt to apply cause it gets all over the joint. No thanks.
3. Lip butter or lip balm?
   As of now, I'm definitely a lip butter chick because of the new Nivea Lip Butters. They're really nourishing and smell so so good, especially the 'Caramel Cream' one. Mmm.
4. Matte or sparkle eyeshadow?
   I prefer matte but alittle sparkle here and there for special occasions doesn't hurt hehe.
5. Foundation or concealer?
   For everyday I prefer concealer. I've been using Revlon's Photoready Concealer to cover up any undereye circles or redness and it does the trick. But for occasions where I'm heading out for dinner or clubs, I usually wear foundation to give more coverage.
6. Eyeliner or mascara?
   I'm more of an eyeliner person. I love the look of a sexy cat eye or even just a simple liner, it all looks great to me. It accentuates the eye more than mascara does which is probably the main reason why I like eyeliner better. 
7. Loose powder or pressed powder?
   Pressed powder because it doesn't fly everywhere and is easier for me to throw in my bag and head out. 
8. Brushes, sponges or fingers?
   BB Cream and Concealer? Fingers. But anything else like Foundation or Eyeshadow, definitely brushes. I like have clean hands when I'm applying makeup so no germs or whatever can harm my skin since I have sensitive skin. 
9. Waterproof or non-waterproof?
   You know what? I have no idea, leaning more towards non-waterproof because it doesn't make my lashes look like tiny spider legs and is much easier to remove. Even though waterproof lasts longer and stuff, I could always just apply fake lashes on top! Hehehehehe.

Hope you guys enjoyed another tag, I tag YOU to do it too! 

Until next time, xx
