MAC Blush and Eyeshadows: Prism,Cork,Expensive Pink

MAC Blush: Prism


Awwww ...this Prism has become my new favorite blush! I thought it would look more brown but it's definitely not. It's a dusty pink color which gives me a really natural look. This is a matte finish so you don't have to apply too much to get the color on your cheek. Perfect for every look, especially for the day that you're tired of bright color but still want a hint of warm color on your cheek. Definitely go check this one out,ppl!

MAC Eyeshadow: Cork




This is satin finish eyeshadow. I personally think Cork is a must to keep in your neutral eyeshadows' collection. I once used it to create my eye shape and it has done a really great job. It gives a nice and natural shadow for the eyes. I tried to use it to fill my eyebrows but I think it's a little bit too light. Overall, I like this color and also its texture!

MAC Eyeshadow: Expensive Pink




A gold shimmer and a hint of soft pink color make this eyeshadow pop! It's a veluxe pearl finish and I think it does have a little bit of coral color in it too. It's really shimmery and reflects light. You probably can't see anything but a gold shimmer in the photo. It seemed pigmented when I swatched but when I applied it ... it was hard to tell where the color was. All I could see was a hint of gold shimmer and a very light pink. I have to find the way to work with this!

Nail Polish: OPI Tickle My France-y

I actually wanted to get "Barefoot in Barcelona" but it was sold out. This one is a bit lighter than the Barcelona one and I found it really wearable. Its pinky-nude color reminds me a lot of milk-tea :) And since it is a polite color, I think it's perfect for wearing to college as well.
The texture of the nail polish is great. (in the photo I applied it twice) However, I found it slightly difficult to paint on my nail. Well, I actually believe that it was because I'm not a nail-polish-painting expert hahaha (My boyfriend has done a really great job on nail-painting. Yeah a lot better than I do. He has even turned my nail into the cutest strawberries and no..he is not gay)
I'm thinking about buying another one,
any idea?

Review&Swatch: MAC Mineralize Skinfinish "Soft and Gentle"


I’ve been using this for almost half a year now and it’s always a part of my everyday look. Its name explains the color quite well. I’d describe it as a peachy-nude-champagne color haha. It gives you a natural glow, and makes your look soft and gentle (yeah!). It looks perfect both nighttime and daytime. I apply it on my cheekbone, nose area, around my chin etc, any area that I believe will reflect the light. I’ve a combination-oily skin and I don’t think this product would make you look oilier or anything like that. As I said, it would give you just a glow.
                This one costs around $28, I believe. I’m not sure. The quality is great and it will last you forever.

TAG! 10 Things I can't live without during the exam's week!

This tag was created by ME! since the final exam is coming!

AND I TAG ANY OF YOU WHO WOULD LOVE TO DO IT!!!!

10 Things I Can't Live Without During the Exam's Week

1) Pens, Highlighters, Something BRIGHT to highlight the important information in the book. I love light green, orange, yellow and... even light purple :)

2) Coffee/Tea: I love cold-coffee and also the english tea from Tea Break. I know drinking these things are not good for my health, yet, it's the only way to keep my eyes open until the very last page of the book!

3) My Schedule Book: I would die if I lost it. I love planning things and always write them down in my schedule book. The one I'm using right now is the birthday gift from my boyfriend.

4) My Labtop: The most reached thing during the hardest week. Life saver.

5) Youtube: Nothing can stop me from watching Youtube. (except when the internet connection is suck) Nothing can help me feel soo much better about the exam but YT's make-up videos. I'm quite addictive ;)

6) Facebook: Another life saver!

7) Family, Friends and my lovely Boyfriend: These people always support me and they know how to make me feel happy during the hard time.

8) 7-11: This 24-hours-convenience store always welcome me although it's is 2 am!

9) A Big Bottle of Water: Yes, after consuming more than 2 little bottles of coffee.

10) Novels, Magazine, Travel Book: No, it's not a too-much-reading at all! Books are always my good friends! I always turn to some interesting books when I'm overwhelmed with my academic ones. It does help to make me feel better sometimes coz I can feel like escaping to the fantasy and unreal world for a while.
