Sephora is Love!

I absolutely loooove makeup! I've been putting on colour on my face for nine years now so just imagine how I mastered the art of painting lips, brushing on pinks on cheeks, dusting on bronzer all over the face, lining the eyes and brows, and swiping on mascara on lashes. I always go for the smokey-eye-with-pale-lips look because I think it really enhances my features. For years now, I've tried on several colours of lip tubes and pots and pots of cream shadows. But this makeup palette from Sephora literally took my breath away. Take a look at this beauty:

The Sephora makeup studio has over 190 colours! The set is complete with 96 eyeshadows, 84 lip glosses, 3 blushes, 1 bronzing powder, 6 creme eyeliners, 2 pencil liners, 1 mascara, and brushes. It really is heaven in a box! It's like every woman's dream!! I feel like a professional makeup artist everytime I try on colour after colour.

I always try on different colour everyday. You can create endless looks for daytime and night time. The finish ranges from matte to shimmery. Usual colours like earth browns and smokey blacks are present in this palette, there are the metallics too in the form of gold, blue, bronze, and green. The hardest part is deciding which colour to put on for the day (or night out).

Visit Sephora today and bring out the makeup artist in you!  Have a great weekend loves! Xx

First Purchases at Singapore

October 2011
Singapore

I was so amazed by the city. Singapore is a huge tourist attraction. And with all the wide array of shopping choices, any fashionista will go crazy!! I've been controlling myself from splurging for weeks but I just can't say no to the inviting shops along Orchard especially the giant H&M store.  So, here are my first purchases: 

I bought a flowy sheer turquoise top, long horn necklace, cocktail stone ring, and gold hoop earrings from H&M. I love this top since you can dress it up or down depending on your mood. I can see it fabulously paired with ultra short shorts when you want to go to the beach. It can be a pretty bikini cover up too. You can also wear it to a party by pairing it with your tightest skinny jeans and highest black heels and some sparkly gold accessories. Complete the look with smokey eyes, pale lips and dewy skin and you're good to go! I have also purchased a romper from Cotton On. You can check out my blog post on that by clicking here.

I also purchased makeup from Sephora and Mac. I was concerned with my uneven skintone so I thought I had to purchase a new foundation that matches my new skin color (I got darker when I came here maybe because of all the walking we did during daytime). To match that, I purchased a lip tube from Mac. This is by far my favorite lip color: Pink Noveau! It really looks pretty with smokey eyes. I can't get enough of it, I use it everyday!

Recently, I also purchased my first fashion magazine in Singapore: Elle Singapore. I haven't read the entire issue yet, I just browsed through it since I can't find time yet to read it from cover to cover but I must say that it is really interesting. Plus it features some of the pieces from Versace for H&M collection which will come out on November 17. Can't wait!! The November issue comes with a free pouch that I use to store my body oil, moisturizer, and all the other bath and body essentials.

You know how much I adore fashion and I am really really looking forward to this collaboration. Versace is a name that connotes style, class, glamour, and sophistication. So I am so happy that Donatella Versace finally said yes to H&M's invitation for a collaboration for capsule collection. I will make a blog post on the entire collection tomorrow. Please do visit my blog again for you to see. :)

I saw these cheap but ultra fab clear cases wherein you can store your accessories, makeup and all the other essentials inside. It's only SGD 2 for each clear box. You can purchase it too on your local hardware stores. It really helped me organize my things here.  On other note, my two friends have already purchased their iPhone 4S. Here it is:  I'm thinking of purchasing the same model, that or a BB Bold since I'm not a techy person. But I think I NEED to replace my phone. Haha! So I'm contemplating between the two.

Anyway, I'm so excited for the coming week since I already have planned out the things to do for the entire week. And I can't wait to take outfit shots for my next blog posts. Have a great week ahead loves! Xx
