Make Up Stash

 Yup, I'm back and in pain :S At least, I would say it isn't that bad but it's annoying to have this 'lump' of pain on my upper back around the right shoulder blade. I think it might have been my awkward sleeping position when I rest on my sofa and accidentally slept until 3 plus am in the morning. See lah, this is what I get when I become too much of a sloth, as cuddly as that animal can be.


Anyway, I have become a bit of a make up junkie but come to think of it, if I were one, I would have amassed quite a lot. I'm still selective though. And let me show ya what are the two of the things that I got the last couple of months which I'm actually proud of.

I finally got the Sleek Storm eyeshadow palette which contains 12 colours which are widely recommended for its affordable price and intensity and range of colours. It's not found in Singapore but in UK. However, once in awhile, an online seller from Singapore would bring in their palettes and it's mostly on a first come first served basis and lucky thing, I managed to get the storm palette and it didn't disappoint. 


Previously, I got the Stila eyeshadow palette, which I can't remember if I blogged about it before but I like it coz it has four basic colours which you can play around with, for day or for night. The colours are quite intense and it is also perfect for those who are amateurs as one swipe of colours can brighten up their eyes. The darker colours can be used to highlight the crease of the eyes for a more complete look.


Both of them cost $20 each. But to me, the Sleek palettes, at $20 is quite a steal. I will put up the links of where I got my things from, also as a shout out coz I think they are doing a good job getting hard to get make up products in Singapore and yet, make it affordable for us.


I like the make up packaging. It's so..er..sleek.


So intense...

One Step at A Time

Hello there It has been a while, right? I used to treat this blog as a place for me to rant, talk about nonsensical things and interests that, when I think back about it, were pretty cringeworthy. But it was part of the process of me growing up and navigating through my life which is full of ups and downs, just like the tidal waves. I still need a form of outlet to write out my thoughts and I have been journaling for the last few years. At first, I was still writing nonsense, or simply writing about how my day went, but I try to make it a more conscious journalling where I will write about things that I can take lessons from or to reflect on. So how has life been for me? Well, I no longer am running an online shop where I used to do customised cards and then just specializing in box cards. I do want to have an online business, preferably one I don't have to travel to meet people.  If you read my last post about being zen, I think I have 'tripled' the amount of zen inside of...

Listen to Me

It kinda irks me when I am trying to express an opinion or sharing a piece of knowledge but it's met with strong objection or Im being cut half way before I even finished. I mean...come on...does it hurt to actually listen first, doesnt matter if u agree or not? Yes I know everyone is entitled to their own opinions but it's frustrating because I feel like a sore loser. That sort of conversation is actually begging to be turned into some huge argument if I am equally annoying and equally strong headed as well. But I dont want to do that especially if they are my friends. Then again, I am subjected to being called a wimp or somebody who cant stand up strong against what she believes in or her own opinions. That will sorta give the person a sense of pride for getting a landslide victory. At first I used to think that hey, maybe the person has a point and I am wrong. But come to think of it, that's bull! It's one thing not to argue and another thing to let ur own opinions b...

Ray of Light

The act of falling in love. Very subjective and it also depends on the object you desire. Well, if it is the 'whoa mama!' sort of hunk or good looker, then yours truly has fallen in love many times over and over again. But a guy who has stolen my heart for good..well...that has yet to happen. But let's not talk about my non existent love life. Let's just ponder over the act of falling in love. From what I have observed through several tv shows or even movies, I gather that well..not everyone is so lucky to have fallen in love at first sight. It takes time, and maybe it will even take boyfriend after boyfriend or girlfriend after girlfriend before reality smacks your face and you end up with your very first boyfriend (gasp!). What a truly merry go round. Hey, it happens. Because we make mistakes and we are too blind to notice how someone can truly bring you happiness by their sheer volumes of care and concern for you. In the midst of crisis, a ray of light shines through...
