My 20th Birthday!

BELATED POST YET AGAIN
Happy 20th Birthday to me~ 31 days ago. Yeah this post is like a month late which all on my side due to my laziness and personal life not adding up together, 31 days of emotional stress if you may (people following my on Twitter, sorry LOL)

First off, this birthday meant the world to me, not only did I have a blast and some of the best birthday's I've ever celebrated, not to mention this being my first time celebrating after 6 years and I actually got birthday cake! Like, wow. Seriously, wow.

Hubby took me out on a date, the whole day I felt like royalty thanks to that cheesy prince of mine~
I couldn't have asked for anything more than time with him and he just kept surprising me throughout the day, it was so wonderful. JUST LOVED IT OKAY WAS AMAZE BALLS

 I've been trying to learn how to contour features on my face (yet to have a highligther) and this is just me ...trying.. to improve? Also I don't have a bronzer/contour brush so I use my powder brush and wash it like once a week cause I'm afraid I might fuck up my brush ._. And..I use a brow kit as bronzer so there's zero shimmer in the formula and I don't get too shiny 


Makeup, contouring only :) (not on nose bridge)

Looking sick here, but just missing some color on the lips lol

Duh hello~ derp finished look!
I had been craving sushi like crazy ever since the little sushi shop at our apartment complex shut down, the feels WHY WOULD YOU STOP GIVING US HAPPINESS sigh. We went to Fuji, a Japanese restaurant (At Siam Paragon, located on the G Floor across Yumi Fusion) we had some delicious food, perhaps a bit much of that but, it was breakfast after all


Enjoyed the little (poorly taken :C) food porn?

Spent most of the time after that just walking around, talking about past birthdays and childhood memories over a cup of starbucks and gelato icecream followed by shopping for "birthday" presents for me since Hubby wanted to pay for whatever I wanted, now see that(!) is something I've never heard before in my life!
~

(I've have yet to take pictures of the gifts cause.. erm. Only bought shorts and no tops to go along with it)
//facepalm


After a longer time of shopping, btw I'm picky as fuck so took forever and I ended up with just 2 shorts but, hey better than nothin' ~ We had tacos (MY FIRST TACOS) for dinner since Hubby craved it and I have to admit it's not that bad, nice and spicy 

On the way home Hubby also got me a slice of Tiramisu Cheesecake for us to share..so cute cause what happened was that he picked that since I love coffee (TILL MY DYING DAY) turns out that they had too much Tiramisu powder on the slice making it, quite..dry not super pleasant




Hubby's parents and his sister sent me gifts too, which was above anything I would've expected it was unbelievable really, a cute (real) silver necklace and MY FIRST MAKEUP PALETTE; Naked 2 //tears.

Revlon Lipstick - Review

Hello there! A few many months back I bought a Revlon lipstick, which is my first bold color ever and my 1st red color makeup article as well. I've always loved those bold red lips so seductive and not to mention beautiful am I right? I always thought that anything but, casual-natural looking makeup was better fit for me I never gave these things a try, no matter how much I adored it. 


So fuck that, I bought one!

Here's the little foxy devil, "Certainly Red" is her name, isn't she a keeper? Well let's find out shall we~  




Comparing the swatch to Dear Darling Tint #3 "Orange Red" from Etude House




Excuse the "I can't draw inside the lines" style of application ):



Aside from the fact I suck and have no experience with lipstick prior to this (and not in any color either lord) that I really suck at applying this to my lips and only showing the 'better' ones out of a bunch of jagged errors trying to make this work I apologize like a gazillion times guys! 

Rating: ★★★☆☆

Only gave it 3 cause it smears off waaaay too easily. It might just be me that knows nothing about lipsticks but, even after biting them napkins and such I wear it off in less than an hour of going outside. Sigh. But other than that I love it and don't mind running to the bathroom after a lunch date or dinner date to re-apply it, cause that baby is gorgeous

Etude House Dear Darling Tint - Review

So hubby bought me my first Etude House
makeup product, this lovely lip tint from their Dear Darling line!


I use this religiously every single day, mainly because the color of it "Orange Red" is so refreshing! I use it as blush just to look like I have some sort color on my skin..thus I look very pale and tired all the time. It's a huge help and long lasting too! Really wanted to give the 'orange' color trend a go, I felt rather drawn by it great thing hubby went ahead and just bought it for me after just looking at it. 

Guess puppy eyes really do work, muahahhahaha
  



It looks different when applied than what you would expect from looking at the product itself without having the change to try it out. Still a gorgeous color, you wouldn't be disappointed; it's adorable and sassy. 

Sorry for using MS Paint but, I don't have anything better atm.. u.u
It's a very subtle color, depending on your makeup and your own preferred makeup routine, I would say it would have more of a pop if I had done a gradient (applying some BB cream/foundation to the lip line and worked the gradient fade style, the orange would appear stronger) of course the more you apply the stronger the color becomes. I like just using a single swatch, just pinch of color is good enough for my casual look~

(The pics are taken in natural lighting)

I love the way the color looks on my lips, would be one of the first times I actually liked putting something color full on my mouth instead of in it (eating you know, lol) this is only one single swatch of the tint, I prefer this light tinted appearance than adding too much of it (cause I easily wear mine off by rubbing my lips unconsciously) that would be a waste of this awesome lip tint! I've already used it quite a lot  as it comes as my every day handy dandy lip tint (meaning basically my only one. LOL)

 Rating: ★★★★★

I might just be too much of a newbie when it comes to rating cosmetics hence I've never really owned that many, I'm not experienced when it comes to makeup either but, I absolutely adore this product and love it!

side note special: doesn't wear off with kisses † ▽ †@)

A Day Alone


This probably sounds weird with a ”First day alone” kinda vibe, making me sound pretty clingy huh..

Hubby had to renew his visa so he went to Cambodia at 6:30AM, so we stayed up all night for that and left at 5, made more sense at the time. I couldn’t go with him and since it was a 1D trip we decided to just leave him to the staff people, I’ve traveled with the agency before so I trusted them (SLIGHTLY) to take care of him :C He ended up not getting any sleep, the roads by Cambodia/in Cambodia are super bumpy, not only that but he sucks at traveling by himself (this was his first time lol) on the way back he got really sick, he didn’t anything else but a green apple, ice cream and candy. So he ended up nose bleeding in the van, lol poor baby. Anyhow, the clingy part.. 

That’s not the case! LOL

And it wasn’t actually a day more like 12 hours, in total (didn’t put it together until now, I’m not a stalker girlfriend LOL). But, I ended up doing things I’ve been talking about I wanted to do but, never got to do cause I felt bad for my hubby if I decided to actually do it. Such as:

  •  Waxing  – I hate shaving more than anything, not the “I’m-too-lazy-to-shave” but, I just prefer waxing, to me it brings out a much smoother and longer result + I won’t cut myself up and get allergic reactions to the razor blade out of skin irritation.
  •  Makeup  – Actually, this one was just because I tend to literally scan every label (I take a picture of the price of the things I want) to therefore walk around thousands of other makeup store, being street stalls or actual stores/ central malls. Just comparing prices to see what is cheapest, cause I hate spending extra money on something I could’ve gotten cheaper..but same quality..right? I’m not crazy lol (•)
  •   Massage  – I’ve had the sickest back pains for months now so I thought that since hubby wasn’t around to oppose it, I went to my old massage shop where they take 200 B for 1 hour, that’s a good price btw. Also they do a hella good job at loosening up all of your joints, dayum! If 200 is too expensive for you or you’re just that cheap (200 is a good price on a basic price of 300 up for just 1 hour) I know a place that only takes 150.
Bored at home at 7AM..
I didn’t do that much other than explore, I forgot to eat so didn’t get to eat until like 10PM cause I was stubborn and just didn’t want to spend any more money on myself after paying for waxing  ╥)


OOThatD
Playing around with the Winter selection in Zara

Just felt really lost just going around all silent and alone. I only listened to music, for 12 hours, barely talked to anyone. Wouldn't say I'm clingy but, more like really bored and I just have a lot more fun when hubby is around (´∀`*)


I'll come up with a review of Etude & Revlon, the 2 only makeup things I've bought / hubby
ヾ(@† ▽ †@)ノ 
 + Also come up with more updates soon (the waxing boutique
