Review: Items from Haul 21 July 2012

Hey guys. Woke up pretty early (well, earlier than usual) as I decided to do this post now :)

STUDS FROM LE BLOG-SHOP
I REALLY REALLY LOVE EM' STUDS
So yeah, I had sweet dreams about the studs :) I love them so much that I'm getting a few more and a packet for my bestie as a birthday present :) Will post pictures of them :) If you'd like to order some, just e-mail me :)

ESSENCE I ♥ ROCK GLOSS EYE PENCIL
This is REALLY REALLY glossy, no joke! It is also intense (sorry, I can't find the right word for it, uh, bold?) and it really stays on! I drew a line yesterday just to test it and IT'S STILL ON MY HAND! It is the line (it's slightly faded *duh!* but still can be seen). It also glides really smoothly, not like most eye pencils which tug on the loose skin. So yeah, really liked this :)




ESSENCE NAIL COLOUR 3
I thought this was pretty cool, that's why I got it :/ I usually get things if they have nice packaging, and this is an example of it :P I also thought it was pretty handy to have two nail polishes on one stick thing (sorry, it's so early I can't think straight :/ )The colours are pretty :) The reason why they call it 'nail colour 3' is because with the two colours they give, you can mix it together to make a third colour :D But the individual colours are nice on their own :)





ESSENCE LIPSTICK
I really like the colour of it :) As the name suggests, it gives your lips a frosted look, but you can still see the light pink :) It also smells really pleasant and definitely will get more ^^





ESSENCE I ♥ EXTREME VOLUME MASCARA
I've checked Essence site, and apparently all items under the 'I ♥' range are usually items that are bold to make statements and it's more of a rocker look.. Which explains why this mascara is REALLY REALLY BLACK. When I buy mascara, I don't really care what it says, whether it is Volume, Length or whatever, to me they are all the same. But my current favourite is Maybelline the Falsies. Everyone knows Maybelline is the MASTER at making awesome mascaras, so it will be pretty difficult to find a substituent mascara at a budget price (well at least cheaper than Maybelline, because Maybelline is already quite cheap) For this, it doesn't really compare to my Maybelline one. My Maybelline gives more length (duh, that's why it's called the Falsies) which I prefer. This one kinda make your lashes darker and bold, but I know Essence have tons of mascaras, so maybe there is one that can match up to Maybelline. I'll do my 'research' and do a review on one (after I buy it) and see how it is. Although, I've narrow the list down to two potential ones :) But one thing I like about this is that it doesn't stiffen your lashes. I feel that my Maybelline one kinda does that, and it's gets annoying when they are stiff and stuck together.




ESSENCE BRUSHES
Well, I haven't tried the brushes yet :/ But once I do and like get used to it I'll do a review :D

Haul 21 July 2012 ^^

Hey guys! I have some bad news :(
I went out to meet the person to collect my pink brush set, but she forgot to bring my items out :( So I didn't get my pink brush set, but she give me a discount on the other items I ordered. It wasn't a complete waste of time because I still had to meet her to pay for new items I ordered. I'm not angry or pissed, cos' I know she is really busy, just a little disappointed :( Sigh...
What made me EVEN MORE disappointed was that the shorts I wanted to get at Cotton On was GONE :O Like, the whole design is out of stock, not just my size or whatever. I wouldn't be so disappointed if just my size was outta stock, because I'll still get to stare at the design on the other sizes, but THE WHOLE BATCH WAS GONE :'( #sadlife But on the bright side I saved the money to buy more shorts from Bershka, Forever 21 and Topshop, cos y'know, you gotta be optimistic :)
Anyway, enough about my sad life, more about what I bought! :D

FROM ON-LINE BLOG SHOPPING :)
Ever since I bought my first packet of studs in Japan, I fell in love. I saw people studding their clothes, bags, and shoes, but I didn't see what the fuss was about. Only once you own a packet of studs for yourself then you can see for yourself :) I bought 100 pieces of Silver Heart, 100 pieces of Silver Peace and 100 pieces of  Gunmetal Pyramid :) Really loving the Peace one, cos' it's unique (to me at least). Total was $24 after some discount the owner gave as she urgently wanted to clear her stock. So yeah :)



FROM WATSONS (AT PARKWAY) :)
So I went to Cotton On at Parkway, but the shorts was gone. I looked around I saw this awesome skirt, lace and all and it was only $10 :O But I didn't get it because it didn't have cream colour, only purple and yellow :( So I left Cotton On empty handed, except for a pocket full of cash :D Saving up for Topshop! Anyways, I went to Watsons to get pencil eye-liner after I finished mine, but I ended up getting loads of stuff! I got:

  • Essence Smokey Eyes Brush $2.80
  • Essence Gel Eye-liner Brush $3.30 (I can never find 'the right' gel eye-liner brush that I really really like, so I usually get loads and see which I prefer on certain days! But this seems to have a better grip than the UBU one)
  • Essence Lipstick in 01 Frosted $4.30 (It's a really nice light pink ^^)
  • Essence 'I ♥ Extreme' Volume Mascara $6 (THAT'S CRAZY RIGHT?!?)
  • Essence 'I ♥ Rock' Gloss Eye Pencil $2.80
  • Essence Nail Colour 3 in Shopping Trip in Soho and Party All Night Long $6.10
Will do a review on these products! Maybe later? Or tomorrow. Will be in the form of a post, not video.













Oh, and I also set up at Twitter account! Follow me at myhellonearth23 ♥

TODAY IS THE DAY :D

Hey guys. So today I'm meeting up with a shop owner to collect my PINK BRUSH SET ♥ :D OH YEAH ☺ 
I'll do a video (if possible, cos' I can't find my tripod -.-). If I can't then I'll just SPAM WITH PICTURE OKAY? :D Super excited.. As you can probably tell :)
I'm also going to Cotton On to get a pair of shorts I saw a few days back :) It was floral prints! :) But can't spend too much as I'm saving up to go Forever 21 and Topshop.
Oh, and my current favourite song is Some Nights by Fun. Click there ☚ to listen to it! ♫
So that's it for now guys, will update later when I come home ✞

Make-up Storage

How do I store my make-up?

This is the question that most people will think of when expanding their make-up collection. Well, I've done some searching and have found some ideas for you guys. Don't needa thank me :P























P/s: Here's how I store some of my drug store make-up:




Review: Klean Colour Palette

So, like promised, I will do a review on this palette

To be honest, I've never heard of this brand before. I got it because I like the colours on this palette and it was also quite cheap, I got it at $4 :O It wasn't used before, but the cover and all has taken a beating, so that probably why the cheap price. I didn't really mind as long as the make-up itself was alright.

So anyways, it had good pigmentation and just one stroke across could be obvious on the eyes, even for the lighter shades :> I like the darkest shade the most as it looks really nice when you apply it at the end of your eye and 'wing' it out :D

Le shades

It's good for the price I bought it at, but I'm not sure about it's original price, so you might wanna check it's original price before buying it :)
