Gloomy

*Sigh* Its been raining all day so i didn't get a chance to go out ><>

Generally i like the rain but im feeling abit down lately so waking up to clouds and rain didn't exactly make my day...

Adding to that i had my first fight with the BF, going to try and resolve it later on msn tonight, SO not looking forward to that as i KNOW im just going to snap at him. I wonder sometimes if its worth it.

AND my skins acting up again and i can't seem to find my HG acne treatment ><
I cannot wait till today is over

I've been naughty


Damn Sales Assistants
I ended up getting not just the UV under base but the Shu natural goat hair 16DF brush T_T ....at least i got some samples

Mona from Make me Blushhh did a review/tutorial on the Shu 18 goat hair foundation brush which was what i was originally gonna get but with the persuasive SA i got 16DF with is actually a contouring/blush brush but can double as a foundation brush (i hope anyway)


But the SA was very nice and gave me some samples and this beautifullllll gloss was included 
  Its very sheer with alot of shimmers and its got a fruity kind of scent, very similar to the body shop ones
It PK 333S and so far im liking it~ Might consider getting more if its good, my make up collection is in lacking glosses and lipsticks but this will be bad for my wallet...

Addicted to Shu

Ever since returning from the wonderful land of Shu Uemura, I've been comtemplating if i should get the Shu Uemura UV Under base
Its all the SA fault! ><

As a SA myself i should be immune to all the sweet talking and the 'how this will change your life' talk but while i was waiting for my cleansing oil the SA noticed how oily my skin was (well i've been running around the city before doing errands and didn't have time to touch up) and one thing led to other and now i wanna buy the whole shop T_T (don't worry i won't)

And I'm getting paid today....


Shu Love~

If you have been reading Haru from Rouge Deluxe or you're a big Shu Uemura fan then you would know about their new limited edition Tokyo Kamon Girls Collection and i have to say if you're a manga fan like me and love cute stuff you WILL fall in love with the packaging!!!!
In Sydney you can get Shu Uemura from David Jones in Elizabeth Street (that i know of anyway) and i was walking past there the other day and to my surprise they were already advertising it!!! Japan hasn't even released it yet!

So seeing as i have to pay the bills and stock up on some basic items i braved the cold (and it was cold 8C~12C today i think) set out on my journey! 
 
 And i return victorious!!!! First one in Sydney to get it apparently hehehe

Isn't it CUTE!!!! 
For me i got high performance balancing oil cleansing oil fresh (that's a mouthful o.O) and i can't wait to use it!!!

Before i was using the Biore Cleansing oil but when i was testing it at the counter if felt SO much better! 

So ladies if you love Shu and you love manga/anime t
he tokyo kamon collection is just for you but just to warn you it will take a beating to your wallet - the cleansing oils are priced at $130 and the travel brush set $110 (forgot to ask about the box)
Will report back on how it is^^ 
What i was wearing today - Bardot boot leg jeans, Giordano grey sweater dress, Bardot cropped coat, grey scarf and LV tivoli handbag (present for doing well in the half yearly exams)

A victorious happy lady~

Wedding!

My cousin (who i have never met before in my WHOLE life) is getting married YAY! 
However if the circumstances were abit different i might be more happy (he got her pregnant -_-) and they're only 20... sighs 

So because we missed the first 2 cousins wedding (i have 3 cousins in total- 2 girl 1 male) we HAVE to attend....not that im complaining as they live in *drum roll*


JAPAN!!!! 

Which is totally perfect as my friend and i were planning to go at the end of the year or so but now we have a guide/my dad as me and my friend are total losties and can't speak a word of japanese^^;;;; Right now they've decided 3rd of October (before it was September then August) so all good!

Shopping and a wedding, what more can a girl ask for ^^

a VERY Happy Lady 

Upcoming post - What's in my make up bag?

U P D A T E ~ B D A Y P R E S S I E S !

Omg i only just started this blog and im already neglecting Opps~
This is post is gonna be showing the wonderful presents i got for my birthday last month (yeah really overdue)

So i was very lucky this year when my Daddy said he was going to Hong Kong to meet up with my grandparents and aunt and uncle from Japan with only two weeks to my birthday and naturally i wrote him a list (yes ladies i wrote him a list) 


Its a tradition with my dad that if either one of us (mostly him) are going overseas that we write a list of what we want (within reason of course!) so i only gave a tiny list of 7 items and not only did he get me everything on the list but some items he got me double!!!! YAY!!!!!!

Starting with skincare:

1) Yumei Green Tea Detox Whitening Scrub
I LOVE this stuff!!! Its gentle and good for my acne scars!
It retails for $45~$50  and it last a while
2) Paul and Joe Whitening Serum
After reading so many good review on this i just HAD to get it!!! 
Because there is no Paul and Joe in Sydney if i had to get this is would cost around $80~150 so naturally it went on the list, i've been using this for maybe 2 weeks and i can see a small difference but i'llo keep using to see if its any good


Make-up

Clockwise from the left:
Jill Stuart mix blush compact 04 hot cherry
Jill Stuart mix blush compact 06 fresh apricot
Majolica Majorca Mascara Base x2
Majolica Majorca Lash Expander frame plus
Jill Stuart jelly eye color 20 ballet pink x 2!!!

I love Jill Stuart and thank god that there one Jill Stuart store in Hong Kong!
i'll swatch these items later and give you a review later ^^

I also got some perfume and some really yummy japanese snacks which i already ate XD So all in all i very happy with Daddy bday present to me!
Now on to what else i got (i feel so loved lol)
For some odd reason very year from my birthday my friends have always get me jewellery, i don't know if this is beacuse i work in jewellery or what but it keeps my collection growing ^^
Given to me by my good friends who happen to be cousins! I LOVE the necklace, i wear it if im feeling abit gothic lol              
Close up of the matching bracelet, i actually don't like this as much as the necklace probably because its abit too chunky for me but still very nice
The bangle was actually a late bday present gotten from melbourne markets!
Its handmade, silver with a black rubber wire snaking through it- my sale voice talking here hehe
And the Ring!!! Omg i had been eyeing this from work since forever!!! And since my wonderful discount was being reduced due to the ressession Grrr i had to get it ~luckily my colleague bought it for me as my birthday present!!!

So thats most of it! i'm pretty sure i forgetting a few things but i'll post them later if i did now to enjoy to long weekend~

Happy Lady~
