L'Oreal Super Liner Instant Impact Felt Liner Review


Bought the above-mention at Guardian pharmacy over the Mother's Day weekend. Brands such as Maybelline, L'Oreal and Revlon were having a 20% off. 

This L'Oreal eyeliner was going at 50% off its original price with a purchase of any L'Oreal product. Therefore I bought the L'Oréal Lash Renewal Serum at 20% off and then the eyeliner at 50% off. Superb deal, really!

I have been looking a good liquid eyeliner since... forever but to no avail yet. I have tried Revlon Colorstay, Majolica Majorca, Kiss Me Heavy Rotation and Fasio. And I do not like all of them. The Revlon one was hard to apply, Majolica and Kiss Me stung my eye (I will have puffy eyelids near the lashes after wearing the eyeliner) and the Fasio one just didn't last on my semi-oily lids. However, out of all the mentioned eyeliners, the best was the Kiss Me Heavy Rotation one because although it stung my eyes, the pigmentation and lasting power was great!

AND, this new purchase failed me too. Lasting power - NIL. Pigmentation - NIL. The name 'instant impact' is such a lie! Oh well, my search continues for THE liquid eyeliner. Recommendations, anyone? Something inexpensive please. 






Not as black as I want it to be. Disappointment. It smudges real quick too!

Red Juicy Lips


I was inspired, after watching Xiaxue's Angelababy-inspired lips video here, to rock red lips myself.
Here is my own take on achieving red juicy lips. 

Lipliner  : RIMMEL Exaggerate Full Colour Lip Liner 063 Eastend Snob (very nude pinky mauve)
Lipstick : MAYBELLINE Moisture Extreme Lip Color 97 Roseberry (berry red - cool-toned shade)
Lipgloss : NYX Mega Shine Gloss Perfect Red (perfect red, indeed!)

Blogging Challenge - 12 April - 'L'


Do you know the expression 'LAME'...?
When you call someone 'LAME' or reply someone by saying 'Gosh, you're so LAME'...
But, how do you define what 'LAME' means? Well, what does it REALLY mean?

You definitely cannot find this definition of 'LAME' via Thesaurus.com because here is the first definition of the word 'LAME'.


Main Entry:lame
Part of Speech:adjective
Definition:unable to walk properly


But, the Urban Dictionary defines 'LAME' as... just plain stupid, unoriginal.


So, which do you prefer to be called?

For me, neither!!! :P


Blogging Challenge - 11 April - 'K'


K. I ran out of ideas today. Really. 
How about... K for KARDASHIAN!!!
Hahahaha!

Do you know who the Kardashians are? :P
If you do, do you like them?
If you don't, please do a Google search on them! Hahaha!

I personally think that they are a very pretty-looking family. As in beautiful. Great skin and very nice hair too. BUT, this does not mean I like how this family runs. If you watch the family's reality show, you would know what I mean. :)




Pretty, right? Hahahaha!
