NYX lipstick swatches

Anyways, swatches for my NYX lipstick post

Had it swatch against a piece of white paper and my hand just for reference=D
I'm pretty tanned and my skin's got a slight yellow undertone to it.




They last a decent time as well, for the price you are paying(You can get it from any Sephora stores in Malaysia) I think it's a great deal
Formulation wise it's really creamy, doesn't really make your lips feel super dried out
Only downside is that it's got a very cheap perfumey smell so if you can get over that I def recommend it.

=D

Crazy day trip to Margaret River!

Chu Xuan parents came for a short visit to attend his convocation that took place on Thursday(Congrats cousin!!) and seeing how all of us had our Saturday off, we've decided to make a very short visit to Margaret River.

The drive down would usually take us about 3 hours so we left our place pretty early(7.30am to be exact!)

Reached Busselton Jetty at about 9.48am, and Chu Xuan started panicking saying that the train that leaves to the end of the jetty(which was a good 3km walk) will arrive at 9.50am, WHICH WAS IN 2 MINUTES TIME!!
so we ran towards the ticketing counter and managed to catch the train at the very last minute!

Paid 28 bucks per person(no student discount=[ ) for the underwater observatory entrance as well as the train ticket.

SO..pictures!

lil red train








and after a good 15 minutes of freezing cold wind, we've finally reached the end of the jetty.





Headed into the observatory for our mini tour



There are 3 different levels in the underwater observatory. Each level having different types of fishes swimming around due to the sea current.
Fishes come and go in depending on season and sometimes, if you are lucky, you get to see turtles, squids and even Sharks!!

1st level


2nd level




3rd Level


After our stop at Busselton, we continued our journey down south to Margaret River.
Had our lunch and decided to make a quick drop to Miller's Ice cream.

1 scoop of ice cream for 4 bucks
2 for $6(I think?)
and their tester package which was 8 scoops for 12 bucks
well we just had lunch and since there were a gazillion of flavours to choose from, we decided to go for the tester thinking that it would be of a smaller portion. boy were we seriously wrong.

I'd consider that as a normal 2 scoops of ice cream. We had quite a few to choose from but decided that we were gonna go for Apple pie, Baileys, Cookies and Oreo, Strawberry and Custard, Strawberry Cheesecake, Mango and something Yoghurt, Raspberry and erm.. something.

What I thought of the ice cream? 
YUMMY!♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥



aaand we decided to take more photos










After ice cream we headed to the Dairy co., a place where you get to sample/buy cheese, the nuts and cereal store(where I bought my ridiculously spicy Chilli Achar chutney), The chocolate Factory and finally dropping by at Howard Park's & Mad Fish Vineyard to purchase some yummy Mad Fish Muscato.



After getting everything we needed from Margaret River, we headed towards our final tourist spot, Canal Rocks!.








At this time the sun was about to set and the lighting for photography was just simply stunning.
and so begin my date with my lil canon camera














Then I got lazy and didn't wanna climb any more rocks so instead of taking photos of the scenery, I got Chu Xuan and Yvonne to be my model instead.









and my absolute favourite photo


and a picture of me before we head home to Perth.


It was an AMAZING trip,
BUT I FELL SICK THE NEXT DAY!! Had a fever and was feeling all horrible and stuff the whole of yesterday=(

Sigh, My body is horrible with the cold weather. I'll die in winter, nuff said.

March Beauty Product Favourites!

My very first favourite blogpost entry!

I know alot of people are doing this in a video format, but I'm just not very good infront of the camera so I've decided to blog about this instead.
These are the products that I've been using(almost everyday!) for the month of March.

I'm not exactly a person who is extremely hardworking when it comes to taking care of my skin.Usually after using my face cleanser, I'll end up putting on some toner and yeah that's all I do for my skincare routine.

However, I've been much more better nowadays with my skincare, mainly because of my recent obsession with makeup,I feel like I need to pamper my skin every now and then to make sure that it stays clean and happy.
I still absolutely dislike using moisturiser bt!(hate hate hate the sticky residue feeling after)

anyways, my favourite beauty product of last month would be


Peter Thomas Roth intensive hydrating serum
I absolutely LOVE this product! Apart from doing what it's suppose to do(very well I might add),I also love love love how it leaves a silky finish on your skin!!


Peter Thomas Roth Radiance Oxygenating Masque
It pumps oxygen into your skin!!! Need I say more? When you 1st use the mask, it would be in a liquid form, after applying on your face, it'll start foaming up....and in a couple of 10 minutes the foam will all disappear and all you'll have to do after is wash your face! Easy!
I'm not a big mask user(too lazy) but I would highly recommend this!


I know it's another Peter Thomas Roth product but I really can't not pick them as my favourites!
I've had this since January I think, only use it every twice a week but this thing, has been my life saviour when I was in HongKong.
I haven't had any of my face cleanser in Hong Kong, the weather was cold and if it weren't for this, I'd prolly end up with horrible complexion!
I bought the one that only has 0.5% of salicylic acid. for those who don't know, Salicylic helps improves acne conditions = no more pimples!


Smashbox Photo Finish Primer
Silky finish primer. Enough said <3
Too faced Eyeshadow Primer
I realised that everytime I don't/forget to use this primer, my eyemake up smudges ALL THE TIME! and when I do use it, it makes my eyemake up last so much longer!! It's a small lil tube but I've been using it since December and I'm not even halfway through the tube yet. Def well worth the money.



My to go makeup kit! I always end up just using Full frontal, Glamazon and socialite for a very neutral eyeshadow combination and it always look so so good.

As much as I love make up, I hate removing them! especially eyeliners and mascaras.

I actually didn't buy this one, it was a gift from Wilson and I only started using it in March because I was running out of the one I usually use.
It removes all your eyemakeup reallllllly well and it's just such a gentle eye makeup remover meaning no itching or stinging feeling.
The only thing I don't like about it is that because it's a oil based makeup remover, it tends to leave quite a oily residue on your skin but it doesn't usually bother me because I'll usually just wash it off with my normal face cleanser after.

My eyelashes are almost non existence.

Bought it, never looked back and def will be buying more it when I run out of them.

Lush Dream Cream

Moisturisers, it also helps improve the regeneration of the skin cell meaning less visible scar! =D

I know the next(and last product) is not at all a beauty product, but I am just SO ADDICTED TO IT it's ridiculous!


Milky oolong! No milk needed and it still taste extremely creamy, don't know how they made it but seriously, if you ever have a chance to buy it(and provided that you like oolong tea),
GET IT!

aaand I'm running really late for french lessons now. Till then!

NYX Lipstick review


About 2 weeks ago, I made an impulsive purchase on cherryculture....


As if I needed anymore, I bought 7 more lipsticks to add to my make up collection.. =.=

"7 lipsticks?!?!?!?"- quote Ei jean, but in my defense each lipstick was only about 2AUD and they had heaps of pretty colors to choose from!


So anyways, I bought 7 colors,
- Narcissus
- Margarita
- Strawberry Milk
- Christie
- Watermelon
- Pumpkin Pie
- Tea Rose





Packaging for the lipstick is cute, and there's small lil compartment of the same lip stick color in a gel form for you to use it with a lip brush as well.

For the price, I'll def think it's worth it, I might do a swatch soon!
