Things in my vanity (October 2012)
Sometimes I wonder, what could make a girl really happy? A new makeup product? Eating chocolate? Finding a new guy? Losing weight?
All of the above and plus I think I just found something that makes me really happy

1) Dove Nourishing Oil Care
I seriously love this hair product cause its so effective and really good for your hair. It doesn't leave a greasy residue on your hair when you put it on, plus it smells fab :D
I bought hair oil after using the same Dove hair moisturizer for almost 3 years (?) so I deff had to try this for myself :)
Yes, be jelly of my natural silky hair thanks to Dove :P
2) Elie Saab Le Parfum body lotion
Okay, this is a kind of a cheat cause I've had this body lotion for almost 1 year but recently I've just started using it and I gotta say I absolutely heart it!
It has a very musky scent yet still manages to smell young because of the ylang ylang.
My mum brought this for me from Germany and you know where did she get this from? A hotel's bathroom. No kidding. a hotel's bathroom that gives you Elie Saab body lotion. After your bath. Maybe Elie Saab is cheap there for them, I wouldn't have any idea.
3) Hada Labo moisturizer
I cannot stop raving about this moisturizer! I love it so much. suffice to say it seriously makes my face feel like as if it had been photo shop cause it is that smooth. And all from this facial product. Nuff' said.
With just the moisturizer on. Don't blame me kay, I was just trying to keep this pic as natural as possible but I still have uneven skin and eye bags. Like any normal human being. Unless you're a natural Barbie but I digress.
Loving this pink leopard print nails :D though I think I'll perfect it during the holidays for better results.
4)High Low nude dress from Forever 21
I love how this dress is very fitting yet loose and when I wore it, it feathered behind me like a cape and I felt like a princess :D Maybe this is how superman feels like :D Except the princess part.
Wore this to a church event dinner and dance. Only got home at 11 on a Sunday night. Hence the not going to school on a Monday lol. Me and sis pakated, haha.
Exams are over, school holidays are rolling in and there are a ton of activities now. Just praying to God to give me strength to face all this insecurities and also for the grace I deserve for my hard work in my exams.
It's showtime.
;So shine bright, tonight, you and I, we're beautiful like diamonds in the sky.
Shine bright like a diamond ♥

Things in my vanity (September 2012)
On to the second installation of 'Things in my vanity' for this Spetember, here's a list of things I've got and just love so much:
1) Silkygirl Precision Liquid Eyeliner
I like this eyeliner because it doesn't smudge easily and goes on smoothly :)
The reason why I got this eyeliner was that my previous Maybelline eyeliner's cap fell out and it being a liquid eyeliner, completely dried up and I didn't know how to fix it :(
So I got Silkygirl instead :D
2) Mood Ring from Australia
*sorry for the background, it was washing day xD
This mood ring is honestly my fave jewellery that I use now because it's just too cute :D
Got it in Paradise Country in gold Coast.
Although it's a few sizes too small for my finger :(
3) "Wonderstruck" by Taylor Swift
This is honestly my fave purchase for September cause I'm a fan of Taylor Swift and it was a must that I got her perfume. I've wanted it for almost a year already :O
True to Taylor's word, "Wonderstruck" smells magical and has a fruity yet mysterious feel to it. It kinda reminds me of eating gingerbread cookies and that feeling when I have a crush on someone and my heart skips a beat when he smiles at me. More like warm and captivating :)
Maybe it's just me, I don't know about anyone else who has an interpretation of this perfume, but as they say, fragrance is a personal thing :D
;I got some money in my pocket and I wanna go shopping.
I'm free, I just spend all my money, gonna rock that like it don't cost a thing ♥

Things in my vanity (August 2012)
Hey y'all! So I thought what a great idea it would be if I had a 'What's in my vanity' or 'What's in my purse' for every month, blogger edition! So here it is!
What's in my purse this August first of is.....
1)Maybelline's 'Baby Lips' in Smoothing Cherry
Heart it so much cause not only is it dope packaging but also it seriously smoothen the lips and even gives it a sheer tint color :O Pink some more :O
Before.
Look how dry my lips are --
After.
Completely moisturized. See!
Lovelovelove it.
Next in my bag is also something of Maybelline,
2) Maybelline's 'Hyperline' Waterproof Eyeliner.
Love how it glides on smoothly and doesn't smudge easily.
Vaining with the eyeliner on :P
3) Garnier Light Visible Lightening Powder in Tan
I was introduced to Garnier cause of the fact my Maybelline compact powder broke and became more of loose powder wtf, so mum bought me Garnier for me and I love it! :D
The powder's smooth without being cakey and my complexion really improved and got lighter :D
On a complete diff note, I managed to find a unique phone casing for Xperia Ray!! :D :D
After 8 months leh :O
Isn't it pretty?!
Plus it was a lucky draw by Sony and the shop was the only shop that sold it :O
And I can't remember the shops name and look :O
And it was the last box :O
With a prize reduction of RM20 (RM89 to RM59) :O
And the sales guy was cute :OO
Lol, well that was 3 weeks ago and now the whole family is running to and fro to pack for Australia :P
Goodbye bloggers and bloggie for one week and I promise that I'll bring back really sweet photos :D

Reinvention week :D
This whole weekend, I've been pampered like crazy. First, I went for a facial;Went to the usual place I've been going since like 12, pfft... DeFine. They gave me the jacuzzi and sauna room plus this was teh first time I went into that room. And I absoultely love it!
The towel rack.
Plant in the room. I love this additional detail cause it gives of a zen kind of feeling.
The window panel. Now this is REALLY zen.
Couldn't miss a chance to camwhore but it was after facial.
Lil sis entered the room when I was having my facial and she took a pic of me... Wait, I think it's better if I show it instead... It's not pretty... You ready? I told you I don't look my best. I hope you don't run of screaming...

Face after facial :3
Next of, I got myself a haircut!
And it wasn't my usual 2 inch... I got hacked of by four inches :O
Honestly, I think the before one is way better than after :'(
Last but not least, went to the fish spa with the family :D
Sis laughing cause the fishes were tickiling her feet xD
My red toes.

Sis toes in the water xD
In the spa, almost everyone had a camera to take pics of the fishes :P

I'm not THAT girl
Confession; I've always felt insecure cause I'm not that girl;- that can easily talk to anyone
- who's perfect cause I mess up on some stuff
- that can tell someone she loves him then takes it back the next day cause I really mean it
- who looks good in a sundress cause I'm not a size zero
- who has a ton of likes on her profile picture
- who has every boy chasing after her cause I get friendzoned by those guys half the time anyway
- who looks perfect in her makeup
- not get you mad
- who talks as if she's in Withering Heights
- who's so feminine she only eats half of her steak
- yells at her boyfriend for talking to his ex
- has the world's awesomest butt
- has people texting her everyday, calling her to hang out with them
- who has all her girlfriends on speed dial
- who actually gets noticed half of the time
- emphasise with those who have been ostracized by others
- who often gets what she wants all the time
Psalm 139:14
I will give thanks for I am fearfully and wonderfully Made.
God made you the way you are, so give thanks and embrace it :D

Le Mode Message
Le Mode Message directly translates to the fashion post! :D Trying my hand at camwhoring and Picasa here. Also trying to channel my inner Cheesie, hope that works, cause I seriously adore her work and think all her pictures are gorgeous :D
Polka dot dress from Soda.
Black dress from Creme :)
Floral printed dress also from Creme <3
Figure hugging grey dress from Nichii
Sparkly, gray top from Voir and lace netted skirt from Forever 21.
Fashion makes me go giddy with happiness :) Also lots of thanks to Sare for teaching me how to make a collage with Picasa :D
Yes, I'm a noob when it comes to using picture editing, sue me #trollface.
School's so far okay, getting better with everything and everyone says I don't look a day that sad and all that so I'm blissfully happy now <3 :D
;I'm free, I just spend all my money, but I rocked all that like it don't cost a thing.
Yogurt mask ^^
Now, as I'm blogging, I have a yogurt mask on... No kidding. Well, I heard from a Bubzbeauty's video that yogurt is a very good DIY beauty remedy. And all you need is just plain natural yogurt! 
Natural Greek style yogurt. Sounds very posh but smells like cheese only o.o
This natural mask supposedly gives skin a natural radiance and hydration.
Natural yougurt contains enzymes and lactic acid to help soften skin, brightens a dull complexion and removes redness in the face.
Treated for 7 days with this natural mask, and you would get skin that is supple, bright, radiant and even looking. No kidding.
So yeah, I have on a yogurt mask right now but I refuse to post up the pic cuz it looked as if someone surgically attached solid egg white on my face. Ergh.
Skip to the end... So after like 20 minutes++ I washed of the mask with normal tap water (the video said lukewarm water but I was too lazy to wash with that water -_-) and voila!
Brighter, even skin within 20++ minutes! :D
Took this photo without any makeup, lightings, or whatever.
P.P.S: I apologize for my unbrushed eyebrows, their beginning to grow out of shape so its high time for a trip to the salon -_-
So, today I'm grateful for yogurt (especially the posh, smelly ones) and their amazing ability to make my blah natural face look... Not so blah :D
Oh yeah, thank you Bubzbeauty for the video inspiration! Check her out: Bubzbeauty's Channel :]
;I'm feeling sexy and free, like glitters raining on me.
