A man, not a boy

Ok, I need to rant!!!

I found this on Nira Chan’s blog and I totally feel her. I wish I had a man to rely on, someone I could depend upon, someone I could lean on…

I want a man, not a boy. ♥

a man who knows how to appreciate the things I do for him.
a man who pampers me with something that money can’t buy
a man who knows his mistakes and try to make it right.
a man who can be my pillow whenever i need someone to lean on.
a man who knows when to give in and let down his pride.
a man who’d communicate, listen and respond
a man who respects me, my family and his.
a man who enjoys what life has to offer.
a man who can say yes or no instead of ‘anything’.
a man who won’t keep me waiting though the day or night.
a man who (at least) try figure out what’s going on inside me and resolve it.
a man who help the relationship work when it gets tough
a man who‘d never lay his hand on woman
a man who works hard and planning well for his future
a man who is motivated
a man who takes responsibility for his actions
a man who gives me freedom that I need.
a man who loves me with no doubts.

I found these really interesting pictures on www.makeupstore.com.au and thought I’d share it with you girls. I know sometimes how hard it is to contour our face because we all have different shape and size faces. So here’s a little guide.
Zig-zaggy line is the Contour /\/\/\/\/\/\
Small Dotted line is the Blush ——–
Long Dotted line is the Highlight _ _ _ _

AND

Loose Curls and Gyaru Hair Styling

My PC isn’t working at the moment so I’m gona have to use my MAC – which doesn’t have my programs for me to work with other than the famous inbuilt high quality webcam :) So I took this chance to make a new hair tutorial!

I made one part for just using the hot rollers and another part for styling my hair in gyaru style.
Sorry, I know I’m very quiet in my videos but I already increased my speaking volume to 200%! Maybe I shouldn’t put in background music next time, haha.

I’ll be posting more gyaru styles in the future :D Keep posted!

Coastal Scents Palette!!

I know I have seriously been lacking some proper PHOTOS on here for the past few days. So here I am, tryna make up for it!

I finally got the 88 pallete I ordered off Ebay almost a week and a half ago! I was slooking forward to it! My heart almost skipped a beat when I openned it up and I have not been letting anyone go near it! :D I feel like a real make up blogger now. haha sounds lame.. but almost all of you girls had it, and I just REALLY needed to get it.
Anyway, as we all do it, here’s a picture of the lovely infamous 88 pallete :)

I kiss it like a little child before going to sleep. (okay, just kidding)
And so I got this baby on Friday night and bySaturday morning, I was already playing with the colours. Here’s my first attempt with this baby. The colours are so pigmented! I used UDPP as the base. I was opting for a barbie kind of look by using light/sky blue and pink/purple. But I think I half failed :P

It was the boyfriend’s mothers birthday and so I wanted to dress up as a sweet little girl for dinner. I curled my hair to make some sweet romantic curls, and wore a pink satin dress with black tights. I forgot to make an “OOTD”.
We went to a chinese restaurant abit further than local, as we usually do, and ate some very yummy dishes including lobster, sea cucumber, scallops and much more! And that was only for the four of us! xD

Happy Birthday Mummy #2:)
Sunday, I decided to play around with the palette again. I decided to put on a more neutral look, so inspired by Natalie Bassingwaithe, I used some neutral colours on the top lid and a bright aqua colour on the bottom a little pop.
 She’s sooo beautiful!
And as you can see, I loved the second look 10 times more, so that’s why I camwhored so much more on Sunday! 
I mentioned that I would be posting up a hair tutorial, but I only just realised that I had DELETED PART 1 of the video, which means the rest of the video is probably just useless. I’ll make it for by posting up my skincare routine this week! Here’s the pictures I took for the hair tutorial. How gay that I had accidently deleted one part..

Until next time… ;)

Minties

What am I doing now? I’m at work chewing on Minties. I’m the marketing person at work and all I’ve been doing today is going through Social Network websites to do some “free advertising/spamming”.. haha! Don’t hate me if you get spammed by me :P

“Dear Mr. Allens,
When will you ever make new “moments” on the wrappers? I’ve been seeing the same “moments” since my mum first allowed me to eat lollies – which is probably like 5. I used to collect the wrappers thinking they’d become so “rare” that I could sell the “moments”. And 15 years later, I’m still seeing the same Minty wrappers everywhere.
Please draw some new “moments”.

Love,
Janice”

Here’s one random fact about me:

My mouth never stops moving. When I can’t talk, I’ll eat, if I can’t eat, I’ll chew.

I apologise for the lack of update. My boyfriend decided to have a fight with his mum the other day and so I had to fill in as the “casual mum” position I applied for about 3 years ago. So I’ve been busy taking him shopping (with me) and watching youtube videos. We came across some very hilarious videos.

Have you girls ever heard of the “Balls of Steel – Annoying Devil”? It’s just so so so funny! Some of the things he does are pretty slack, but I guess it’s just funny as an observer. :)

While youtube, Mr.N started showing me all these “oh-i-think-it’s-so-funny” clips but Robbie Williams and others. I don’t know if I just don’t have a sense of humor, or if you girls don’t think it’s funny either. When I was watching the clips, all I heard was “balls”. Why do guys think gay men and “balls” jokes are so funny??? I just yawned a zillion times.

Beautywise, I have done a hair tutorial but I just haven’t had time to edit and upload it so I promise promise it’ll be up in the weekends!

Uni has really really been stressing me out and I have seven goddamn assessments to complete before I even can start studying for my final exams! Uni sucks.

Yep, and that’s me pulling my hair out from stress.

I’ve been shopping quite a fair but lately, I think due to stress. haha, what an excuse. I bought the “Mimco Turnlock Ziptop bag” which had been on my wishlist for way too long. And I’m loving it so so much! Don’t you love it when you get a new bag and it just smells like brand new leather?

I also got tagged by Chaotic Cookie again! So I’ll make a separate post :)

Okay, now that’s done! I’ll go ahead with my original post :D
I went shopping in Chatswood yesterday with the boy to do some shopping and went absolutely crazy over shopping. I don’t do “hauls”, so I guess I won’t be posting any of that up, but I saw Napoleon Perdis!! He came to Chatswood Myer to do makeovers for people! I couldn’t be bothered waiting in the line, so I just took a few photos of him secretly.

Can you SEE HIM??

OMG. I couldn’t take a picture of this, but he was wearing Studded Jeans and Studded Boots? How very fashionable……. I don’t know. Lots of girls from the Vogue Forums dislike him though, because of his very orangey skin. Apparently, he fake bakes himself :)
Anyway, I don’t know how I do this, but I eat so much it’s unbelievably crazy. The boy and me wanted yumcha, so we went up to level 6 to get Yum Cha, only to find that the line was enormous (yet the lady still said we’d only have to wait 5 minutes). Anyhow, we walked next door to eat sushi instead.
Get ready for the FOOD ROLL. Licks lips*

But the food doesn’t stop coming.. We shop for abit, drove to Bondi to watch Angels and Demons in GoldClass Cinemas.. ONLY TO FIND THAT IT WAS FREAKING SOLD OUT!!!
Then we go home and come out for supper again!

We went to Myer and the boy found a jacket he liked, so I was bored in the changerooms and amazed about the four mirrors they placed in ONE MALE CHANGEROOM?! I loved the jacket Mr.N threw on, so I took a zillion photos of him in it (which I won’t put up LOL). I asked him to model for me and all! I’ll upload one picture cause I think he looks absolutely gorgeous in this picture. I drool for the boy.

Photobucket
Fxck, that’s handsome, no?
Anyway, enough for him and food, more about me. Here’s my FACE for you girls to drool all over. Kidding :)

Quick Update

Tired from doing assignments since and staying up late studying (and playing iphone games).. so here I am.. trying to act as bright as I can.
Oh, and advertising for the Nissin Seafood Cup Noodles I ate for lunch :P



This is just a quick update, so no photo editting or anything..

I have a problem when it comes to my lunch break. I crave.. to go to Priceline (equivalent to CVS in the US). I just feel like I NEEEED to go! =X
So after I slurped up my cup noodles, I went off to the shops and saw a sale on almost all the brands! Probably an after-sale for Mothers Day!
I hauled the Maybelline Age Rewind Foundation in Light 5 (Creamy Beige), Maybelline Dream Mousse Concealer in 02 Natural and some random blush (Australis Allure Powder Puff Brush) I picked up for $2.99! The total came to about $30? Cheap as :D I love bargains.

First YOUTUBE video! :D :D Please Subscribe!!

zOMGGGGGGGG!

I went ahead and did my first video on YOUTUBE! I felt so embarrassed when I was talking to the camera, and my mum kept coming in and out of my room! I sound so different so what I thought I sounded like!
I really should be doing my assignment but heyy, I decided to do this for you girls instead! :D

Also, I received another package today from Ebay! It’s my BUMPITS! For those who don’t know what it is, it is basically a hair accessory which lifts up your roots, giving you more volume on your crown area! The wonderful Ebayer also wrote me a little message explaining why postage takes so long to get to Australia from Hong Kong, etc. She was really sweet!! ♥♥♥


And my BUMPITS!

I ripped off the packaging right away as per usual! And tried it on! It really did make my hair so HUGE :D I love it to bits!

EYEKO!

Photobucket

Hellooo beauties!!
Firstly, I just wanted to say that I really appreciate all the lovely comments you have all left for me :) I feel really loved
Secondly, thanks to all my followers! You beauties are the reason I keep blogging!

I got my Eyeko package!! :D :D
I love the packaging! So so so adorable!

The 3 in 1 Eyeko Cream wasn’t as great as I had imagined it to be. It gave me a glow, but it was also very drying. I don’t know.. I think I have to experiment with it abit more though! I know heaps of girls love it, so I’m gona have to use it abit more.
I also have Revlon Skinlights, which I don’t use often. I’ll make a comparison between the two once I finish off my readings for my assignment due on Friday :P


The Most Freaking Exciting Thing I got in the parcel was this:

I absolutely adore adore adore adore it. I cannot stress how good it was. One coast was all I needed and my eyelashes were volumious and lengthy. I always wear false eyelashes but today, I walked out of house without my false lashes! I’m going to make a review on it tomorrow!! :)

I made a little video on a blue smokey eye look but I’m not entirely satisfied with it and editting a video is so troublesome! haha. Can anyone give me any tips on using Windows Movie Maker or any other problems?
Here’s a sneakpeek of the look I made. I wasn’t too satisfied with the photos I took either.. so don’t expect too much!!

Love ya all!
