VICHY




Has anyone tried the Vichy Normaderm acne skincare line before? I always see commercials for this stuff and its quite intriguing. I have shiny and oily skin at times and pores that could be a little smaller.. I am thinking of buying the kit, but am a little hesitant.. Might buy it this week and do a review on it? Lemme know people! Please..

oh my GOSH!


ATTENTION BLOGGERS! For awhile now, I have had a serious obsession with finding the perfect waterproof eyeliner.. One that actually stays on if you were to go to the beach or swimming (Yes, I like to look good in the water), not just a waterproof eyeliner that would stay put for the day. I have gotten tired of going to the beach and coming out of the water looking like a raccoon and then not having eye makeup remover with me to clean it off. SIGH*
Well! Today is the day I finally found that special something. And it is the GOSH Extreme Art Eyeliner. I'm not even exaggerating, but this eyeliner is "extremely waterproof" like the label says on the product and they are not lying. I tried this as a tester on my hand in the store and went to the washroom after to test how good it really was. It totally passed! I scrubbed and rubbed and it didn't even budge! I had to go back into the store and use an oil-based remover to get it off. I was super amazed, so I bought it. I put it on and went into the shower.. and.. Obviously it stayed completely the same! For $16CAD it is totally worth it! I feel so relieved to actually find something that I've needed for soooo long. I will probably go out and get more in case they decide to discontinue it or something lol. However, If you are a beginner at applying makeup or liquid liners, I DO NOT recommend you using this until you are familiar with it and have steady hands because I'm tellin ya, this is some good stuff! It also comes in tons of other colours, I think 12? Too bad I found this near the END of summer :(
I got this at Shoppers Drug Mart, but you can also purchase it online at www.goshcosmetics.com

LILASH UPDATE


Hey guys! I haven't been on my blog for awhile now because I have been busy. However, I checked to see if anyone left a comment on anything and someone wanted to see an update about my eyelash results with Lilash, so I decided to take a picture! I just wiped off all my eye makeup with baby oil, that is why my skin looks a little shiny. Here are my eyelashes at the moment. I have stopped using Lilash for over a month now because I was pretty pleased with the results. However, to my surprise, my eyelashes haven't been falling out (maybe a maximum of 3) and they have seemed to be a little longer in length because for the past 2 weeks, four of my friends have asked me if I was wearing false lashes. By the way, this is while I was wearing mascara! I mean, for an asian girl, its pretty rare when you see one with long eyelashes that actually curl on their own!! In my opinion, my eyelashes do not look like those thick, fake doll eyelashes, but they look really good now compared to how they looked before I started using Lilash. Lilash is the best and most successful product I have ever used.. EVER! Seriously, I wouldn't recommend it and make people go out and blow hundreds of dollars for nothing! Anyways, here is a birds eye view of my left eye.. Once again, this is with NO MASCARA.

PS. One more thing, my eyelashes are so much longer now that when I am in bright places, my lashes cast a shadow onto my face! :)

BRIGHT EYES




If anyone's got a problem with dark, tired looking eyes, its me. Awhile ago when I made an order with Sephora online, I got a free sample of Benefit's Erase Paste in medium along with it. All my life, I never really took the time to conceal my dark eye bags and such. Since this sample was right in front of me, I decided to use it and boy was I surprised. This product is amazing! It is smooth and velvety, yet it is thick enough to hide my tiredness. At first, I made the mistake of squeezing out too much onto my fingers and then applying it. It was way too much so I had to use the rest on my other eye. A little goes a long way with the Erase Paste and that is definitely a bonus. I liked the sample so much that I had to go buy the full product. It was about $30CAD, but totally worth it. The only thing is that I am pretty pale and the medium was the perfect match for me.. So if you are also very pale then maybe you should consider getting medium instead of the lighter shade. I think Erase Paste only comes in 3 different shades and usually for concealers you're supposed to get one a shade or two lighter than the rest of your skin. So if anyone out there decides to try it out, I would recommend this product because it brightens your eyes and face without being so obvious. I posted a picture of the product and a picture of myself, so you could see how pale I am and also how much brighter my eyes look.

LILASH REVIEW






Lilash is a stimulant for your eyelashes that is applied at the base of your lash line (applied like liquid eyeliner). It is guaranteed to make your eyelashes stronger and healthier, which promotes the growth of it. I came across Lilash a few months ago and was instantly interested in trying it out myself, especially after seeing many good reviews about it. Actually, this is probably the first product I have seen that had purely ALL positive reviews. That is the main reason why I purchased it. I am a young female with the typical short and straight eyelashes. I always dreamed of the long curled lashes, but could only achieve that look if I wore false eyelashes. When I first started using Lilash, I couldn't really see any differences in my eyelashes. I started off using it only once a day before I went to bed because some other users claimed that they got red and puffy eyes from the product, mainly due to over usage, so I decided to take the safe route. The product promised best results at 4-6 weeks of daily use. At 4 weeks I could definitely see a difference, especially when I applied mascara. However, I felt that the results were not worth my many dollars until week 6 came along.. By this time, I was applying Lilash twice a day, once in the morning and once before bed. At week 6 my eyelashes were the longest I have ever seen them. I honestly would recommend this product to anyone because it really works, you just have to be patient with it. I took some pictures of my before and after eyelashes, but have not uploaded them onto my computer yet, so look forward to my next few posts to show y'all some proof!

PROS: Does not irritate eyes, easy application, lasts a decent amount of time, comes clear and dries clear, REALLY works, tube looks good (lol)

CONS: Pricey if purchased directly from the site, especially since I am from Canada so it came out to almost $250 after taxes, shipping and duties (can be purchased on eBay for less), eyelashes don't grow to the same length all at once, but eventually does.

... to be continued!

EVERYTHING PINK!!!




Pink is one of my most favorite colours because it's really girly and cute.. I tend to buy a lot of unnecessary things just because it is pink and I know many other girls do the same thing too! Recently, I have noticed that there are soooo many different things that come in pink. I bought all pink workout equipment, tennis racket, comb, makeup kits.. and much MUCH more. Most things I have purchased are from the Breast Cancer line, which I personally think is brilliant. What an easy way to sucker girls like me into buying random things just because its pretty! And the best part is that it doesn't make me feel as guilty because part of the proceeds go towards Breast Cancer Research, which I think is a really good cause. A lot of neat things can be found on their online site. If you decide to purchase something you can input this coupon code to get a free classic pink ribbon.
