a mini haul

Hi guys! sooo to make up my slack in posting beauty posts, i have an itty bitty haul for you! yayy! i wanted to do a haul on my channel, but i seriously have ZERO time to film, plus, these are only a few things, not really worth a whole haul video. especially if you know how i like my hauls to be ;) (*super huge and collective*)
so i figured, a blog post would be appropriate! so here we go! dun dun dunnn....





Clean& Clear persa-gel-10:
i purchased this because i've heard quite a bit of good things from a couple youtubers. it is supposed to be a really kick-ass acne medication with the 10% benzoyl peroxide (honestly idk how to spell it!) and usually, acne medications with this level of benzoyl peroxide, are sold with prescriptions. but, this one you can get at your drugstores..
it has a quite strong medicine, chemically smell to it, which for me, isn't really a prob. i've been using it for almost a week now. and i must say it has been kinda working out.. but i still need to try this a bit more..



Bodycology Vanilla Cupcake travel sized fragrance mist:
you can get this from ulta for about $3 i think.. i mean, i just love bakery scents, although, im not sure of how i feel about this scent yet, its still in the range where i would love (come on its vanilla cupcake scented!!) and for 3 bucks, you can't rlly go wrong with this :D




Sally Hansen Xtreme wear nail color in "Rockstar Pink" and "Strobe Light":
I have been really into crazy glitter nails lately, so i am super excited to wear these polishes, Strobe Light is more a sheer light pink with multi colored glitter in it, as oppose to Rockstar Pink which is more opaque and festive with the bright color. i'm planning on wearing Rockstar Pink on my nails for my vacation to Bali! yay :D



Stila oil-free sheer color tinted moisturizer SPF 30 in "Medium Medium":
actually, this color is not really my color. i got this tinted moisturizer from $10 when Stila was having their warehouse sale, i thought the color was gonna match, but turned out its a bit orange for me. but it's not too intense or anything. this TM is gonna be PERFECT for my vacation since i am planning to get some color, and the fact that it has SPF of 30, i won't be needing extra sunscreen! yay for practical!


so that is the end of my teeny tiny haul! thanks for reading and stopping by! don't forget to check my channel out, and feel free to drop your comments/ questions in the comment section of the post. now, i gotta go and START doing my effective writing essay. i have 3 ESSAYS ahead me, ya kno. 800 words for effective writing, 2,000 words for psychology and another 2,000 for communication. pretty intense huh? haha over and out! loveyaguys! xoxo

update+ bday haul sneak peek

Hi you there! First of, I am incredibly sorry for the lack of post! Beauty related posts mostly.. I’ve been super busy lately, I haven’t been keeping up with my videos because my home internet is acting up again. Hopefully it’ll be fixed by this weekend *crosses fingers*

It is 10.20 pm right now, I’m writing this post on Microsoft word, in the middle of doing my psychology major essay.. yes, procrastination is in action, baby!

But I’m planning on publishing this tomorrow at campus.. pssh!

Tomorrow is (supposedly be) exciting.. my journalism classmates plus moi and our lecturer will visit the UN headquarter in our city.. still not sure what coursework will be given afterwards, but I’m excited still, it’s like a lil field trip or sumthing, I get to dress up kinda fancy, you know, as a journalist would..

I’m planning to wear just a pair of trousers, a t-shirt styled top, and a blazer! (i ended up wearing a v-neck 3/4 length top in mint green color, trousers and a blazer with my hair in a bun and a pair of faux pearl earrings! and also a pair of black wedges! i wanted to take a pict, but i was incredibly late so i was rushing!)

I don’t really know what I wanna talk about in this post, really.. I just wanna come up here and raaammmbbblllleeee onnnn! Lol

I have quite a bit of pre-filmed videos that I need to upload, I’ll get them up once my internet is back on.. one of em is a birthday haul! My bday was on August 3rd.. I turned 18 this year, and yes, I feel somewhat old lol


****THE VIDEO IS UP NOW!! :)****

On the day of my birthday, frankly, nothing were really superficial.. I received a gift from one of my geeewwwddd friend.. and it went well, I received millions of wishes, I just felt soooo blessed and overwhelmed!


L'occitane Cherry Blossom eau de toilette


The next day, I had a birthday dinner, just a little one with my school mates, it was soooo amazing and a couple of my bffs surprised me with cakes, candles and yada yada yada!

And then on Saturday, I went out for a mini bday dinner with my bff, out of the school tho, we’ve been bffs for like 4 years now!

Then on Monday I went out and had sushi-bday-dinner with another one of my bff! Shes my bff since high school, we went to the same high school! And she gave me a little gift which I thought was so sweet of her


NYX Luscious Lipgloss Pallette in "The Perfect Everyday Colors"


The following day, I received another gift from another good friend



Marks& Spencer Autograph Blush eau de toilette

I am so super excited btw because I have a week off from August 31st until Sept 4th. My family and I are going to jet off to Bali! I seriously am in need of some getaway because my life has been quite hectic.. it’s nice to runaway from it for a bit

I’ll try to do some follow me around vlogs or at least just pictures, just to show you guys how amazingly beautiful Bali is

Anyways, I have been lovinggg shopping at outlets. I mean, I love shopping to begin with, of course :$ but I just have been loving shopping at outlets or little department stores where they have amazing deals and stuff.. it just feels soo good when you are able to find great stuff with low price.. there were time when I was just literally obsessed with forever21. I still like em now, but just been enjoying the good feeling of great finds!

Okay then, I guess that’s it for rite now, I promise a lot more posts coming up and beauty related ones of course! I love you guys xoxo

Invaders event: makeup, hair& outfit!

Hello hello everybody! todays post is a bit interesting..

During the New Years eve, i went to vacation+NYE celebration w my family to Bali, which is a fantastic, exotic island in my country. we stay there for aroud a week, which if you watched my videos than you'd know.
On January 1st, my brother and i attended the performance by Tommy Lee and DJ Aero. to be honest, i dont know much about them, but i do know that Tommy Lee is the drumer for a rock n roll band, Motley Crue.
He branched out and started DJ-ing in around dubstep and ish.
since my brother was a huge fan, and i wanted to see how would a drummer perform on a DJ booth, i came along with him.


Mr. Tommy Lee



DJ Aero

(*sorry for the bad quality pics, they were taken with my flipcam which dont have a really good quality*)


the event was held at Hard Rock cafe, Bali which just perfect, next to where i stay, the Hard Rock Hotel.

anyway, the point of this post is just to show you kinda the makeup, hair and outfit that i wore to the gig!




the makeup:




On my face:
Revlon colorstay foundation & concealer
Benefit erase paste
maybelline clear smooth pressed powder

on my eyes:
Milani runway eyes pallette in "Catwalk"
Oriflame Stylo liner
Maybelline falsies mascara + NYX doll eyes mascara

on my cheeks:
Revlon naturally glamorous blush in "Wine with everything"

on my lips:
Maybelline moisture extreme lipstick in "Natural Nude"





Hair:






this is the only picture that kinda show you how i did my hair.. i put a little poof, just to add more statement and let the rest flow naturally..
my hair was kinda wavy and a bit frizzy during the holiday, since i didnt blow dry my hair at all! hahah




outfit:




i didn't pick the outfit occasionally for the gig. this picture was taken at a restaurant that my family and i went before i went to the gig that night.. so that was just the outfit i had on, i didn't feel like changing it, i think its quite proper tho, just a really thin comfy sort of dress type thing, its of the shoulder, really flowy, has some really nice patterns and colors on it.
and yes, i did wore those sandals to the gig, i mean, if you really know, its just how bali is, nobody cares what youre wearing, you can go to the hotters bar/ club, and the beach with the exact same outfit! so i just put on a bit more makeup to kinda dress my self up.
and ofcourse, my lovely necklace! its a layered necklace, with 3 charms, a peace sign, a dove and a heart! i wore it almost every single day there. :D sorry i dont have a closer look to the necklace.


thanks for reading!!

Incredibly quick smokey eyes

Hi guys, so this is a smokey look that has been my night out go to look lately.









the best thing about this is that it is super easy and quick, you can do it in 5 minutes! and you only need 2 eyeshadows. (another one is for highlight)
here is a tutorial i put up on youtube a while back. enjoy!



in the video i didn't show what i applied to my cheeks and lips to finish the look off, here they are if you're wondering:

Cheeks
-Maybelline dream mousse blush in Peach Satin
-SilkyGirl powder blush in Dune Rose (on top of the maybelline)


Lips
-MAC Cremesheen lipstick in Shy Girl






i love this whole look in general, very night out appropriate, since it is a smokey eyes, but personally, i would wear this out on a day time, just need to tone it down a bit..
the blush combo is also what i;ve been loving lately, i mean can you see how my cheeks looks really popped and defined in the pic?!


so i hope you enjoy this, thanks for reading& watching! loveeess

1. Do you have any pets?

well honestly, idk if this counts but i have this pond in my house with quite loads of fishes in it, and my family& i have had them since like 5 years ago? theyre really big now. anyways, idk if that counts because i think pets are just animals that you take care of and you know, you can pet them, sleep with them, etc. obviously you can't sleep with your fishes can you?
other thing, there's this little kitty kat, he's actually not ours, but he was just a wild random cat, and he passes by my house and my lil sister feed him one time. he continues coming back and forth since then. sometimes i feed him/ play with him, so does my brothers and other family member. but we never even let him go inside the house, leave alone let him sleep with us. so, he's not really our pet i guess? but my brother did named him Jasper. :)

quickie update

hey guys!! ok first of all, let me just apologize cause i've been seriously slacking on posts. i don't have any excuses tho, mainly because i;ve been more on tumblr and twitter instead this, and of course, on youtube. so make sure u follow me on tumblr or twitter if you'd like.
anyways, i just wanna give you guys here some updates..

first of, if you guys didn;t know, i've invested in a better HD camera. pretty cool, yea? :) it is the Sony HDR-XR150. it's a great camera, it's HD, it auto-focuses and all that good stuff. here's my latest videos:






it's a couple parts of haul videos. be sure to check it out if you haven;t already!
yaa so thats about my new HD camera, i actually got it around a month ago. so i have few videos with it already. i really really really do love it!


next thing is that school has started again, probably you guys didn't know that i had 2 and a half months of break. like mid-semester break. it was pretty lonnnngg, i mean, at least i've never had a break that long before. so when i go back to school, it kinda awkaward feeling. LOL. but anyways, i started a new semester and my schedule now is pretty thight. thats why i haven't been uploadig videos as much as i did when i'm still on break. most of the times when i got home, the sun would gone already, so i can't film anything cuz i can never have a nice lighting at night time! but i;m trying to figure out a way to film at night time. obviously trying to find a good lighting and setup. cross your fingers! :)
anyways, i feel like this semester is way busier than my previous one, i;ll always come home with a bunch of school works to do. boo no fun.
which leads this post into my sleeping problems. my sleeping time schedule has been ruined during the break. i'd literally go to sleep at 4 am in the morning which absolutely is not healthy.
of course, when the school started i need to make my self get used to waking up uber early. considering i have quite some morning classes and my house is like 1-2 hours away from my school!
by then, if i wanna get up freshly in the morning, i can't go to sleep uber late. my sleeping schedule is getting better ryt now. i usually will go to sleep around 12-1am. it is still late but at least its better than before. i really wanna go to sleep way early like 10pm ish. but i just can;t because i have TONS of stuff to do. i think its just the way it is, like, 10pm isnt my sleeping time zone anymore..
i've been once told that thats just what college gives you. sleepless nights. just because you have a lot of things to do in such little time given.
but anyways, im not in college at all. i am in a foundation level which if u guys didnt know is like a pre-university level. which is provided for those students whos planning to study abroad, outta the country. in this foundation level, we are having pretty much similar subjects w hi skool, but, its being equated to the particular country's standard. i hope you get me in this point..

anywaysss its 12.14 am ryt now. time for me to hit the bed. so heres the end of my quickie update, dont forget to subbbb me on youtube :) loveeeyou guys!
