bring some colour into your eyes this winter!

this past week, the weather in Sydney has been terrible.. because it's been rainy and cloudy/dark pretty much the whole time.. And everything seems so dreary and dull.. So I decided, one rainy morning the other day.. that I wanted to wear some colour, just to perk my mood up a bit.. and this look is a pink/purple look that I think would look good on especially people with brown eyes, since purple is a colour that complements brown eyes.

I personally had so much fun wearing this look to uni that day, since usually I wear neutral colours like brown as my everyday makeup.. but I think it's always good to switch it up with some colours.

I suggest everyone to wear some colour this winter.. It really does brighten up your mood for the whole day :) :)

my favourite beauty product of july..

My Foundation Primer.

I never really wore foundation that frequently to feel the need to get a primer, but recently, I purchased a bunch of makeup from BHCosmetics.com and thought "why not try out their primers as well?", and since they were having a 30% off sale.. I decided to buy one...
and it is absolutely AMAZING!



As soon as I applied it onto my face, it instantly made my skin feel so much softer and smoother.. which I think had to do with the Vitamins A&E and Grapeseed Extract in it. And it made blending my foundation just so much easier.
I'm so happy with it, especially because I ended up getting the primer for only $13. Like what a steal!!
The only bad thing about ordering from BHCosmetics.com, was the shipping cost.. but I guess it was kind of reasonable, seeing as it was international.. hmm
Well I tried to save as much I could, by buying a whole bulk full of stuff from there. and because i spent over $50, I also got a pair of their fake eyelashes in "Flirt".
Originally, I went on to BHCosmetics.com to just buy one of their eyeshadow palettes since I've heard so many amazing reviews on it, especially the 120Colour Palettes.. but of course, I got distracted with all their other products. The 120 Eyeshadow colour palette (2nd Edition) is the one I ended up buying, and I'm in LOVE with it because the colours are so vibrant and pigmented.. and I can't wait to do some looks using them! :) :)

Makeup's always been one of my loves, but in the past couple of years.. I've really gotten into it. lol I don't see myself pursuing it as a future career path, but it'll always be one of my hobbies. I really think makeup can be used as a creative outlet.. just like artists use painting etc.

My addiction..

...to Hello Kitty.

Every time I do any online shopping and I see anything hello kitty related, and especially if that's in pink....
..my heart skips a beat,
..and I get super super excited,
..and I need to get it. no matter what it is.


Yeah, I know... not really a 'normal' addiction,
but then again, what addiction can be normal..?

Anyways... words cannot explain how much I love hello kitty!!! She's just so adorable and such a fashion icon haha. she be styling ;)

Life Lesson #1: Don't Judge a Book by it's Cover.

 Beauty is only skin deep.
A person's character and personality is more important than their outward appearance.
And if someone is beautiful on the inside (meaning that they have a kind heart), their inner beauty can shine through and show up on the outside.
The important thing is to get to know that person, and give them a chance to show their inner beauty.
Someone's appearance can change over time, but their personality is most likely going to stay the same for the rest of their lives.
