the most wonderful time of the year is here again!

❄CHRISTMAS❄.

feels excited and restful at the same time ! as for me a Christian ,it means to commemorate the birth

of Jesus Christ as Saviour.How amazing is it,to share His love to people in this joyful moment.

following with the new year, doing self reflect to ourselves ,have we accomplish enough and be bless for the people!

So this 2014 Christmas,i'd probably spend by attending Christmas Sermon at

my church following with Christmas Dinner together with my family

But before that ,doing Christmas Decor is a must ^__^

and for this year,i choose blue as the theme

(no,i mean not that sad -blue >//< )

the color blue however, gives me most pleasant impression

which reminds me the color of the falling snowflakes

by that,the key of this decoration is 'play with the color harmony'

Here some blue items to beautify my mini Christmas corner :

❄CHRISTMAS TREE❄

bought this last November at DAISO ion orchard

17 cm height, SGD 2 only

originally come up with the color pink and white .of course i end up with the blue one

No Christmas tree is more cheaper than this even the smallest size!

You know,i was longing for having pastel colored

tree since last year, so i guess I'm pretty lucky

the tree itself already equipped with Christmas bell on the top,

a white rose at the bottom , some blue pom poms and

some ribbons. No need for me to adds extra ornament,

unless it will be over decorated -__-

❄CHRISTMAS ORNAMENTS❄

However the decor wouldn't be complete without ornaments

I can't put it on the tree since it will be over decorated so i guess put it beside the tree is OK.

all of these are used ornaments last year,just pick which are the suitable

ones to fill in the harmony , my way to keep savings up even on Christmas :x

Got 3 balls in different size.The bigger one has mirror effect and pale blue color,The medium one

has matte colour and snowflakes pattern upon it,and the smallest one is simply silver bling-bling

complete with short length blue tinsel and a piece of 'merry christmas' plate

❄CHRISTMAS PLUSHIE❄

actually i bought this Frosty the Snowman plushie

at local toy store last year.About IDR 25.000 or SGD 2.50

I still remember when,i bring him to sleep last year,but now all he need to do is

to guard this mini Christmas decor ~ haha sorry Frosty! i still love you anyway <3

I placed this is the decor at my working desk

as it's the most favorite part of my room minus my bed.

a corner where i doing my things such as daily working,and blogging like this

And to sum it up ,it costed me only about SGD 7 in total !

cheap,mini sweet Christmas corner is cheap ^__^

there goes my mini Christmas decor arrangement,it's so easy

and simple .But at least i got what i want,a blue Christmas ~

Last but not least,I'd like to wish you sincerely :

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Hope all the miracles can be yours and

you also can be the miracle for others!

HELLO!

it's December already and I'm back here to review my recent cosmetic haul ^^

Perhaps some of you,who's fan of Japan Cosmetic brand,you may familiar with this name

yeap, CANMAKE

From what i've observed ,this brand is somewhat targeted for teens - 20 something lady( like me) since the brand itself gives 'young and cheerful' feels.Let's just see the products from my haul last weeks :

CANMAKE GLAMOUR SET

Price : SGD 20.9

Place to Buy : John Little at Plaza Singapura

This set consist of :

♥ 1 canmake perfect stylist eyes

♥ 1 canmake quick easy eyeliner

♥ 1 canmake heart shaped logo keychain

♥ 2 bottles of canmake colorful nails polish

Now i will review the product one by one~START!

♥ CANMAKE Perfect Stylist Eyes

original price : ¥ 780

I got no[07] which is GATEAU FRAMBOISE.According to the site, the shades supposedly make your eyes look more glamorously cute.The palette has 5 colors : pale pink,light brown,rosy pink ,dark brown and pearly light lavender which is define as base(A) , neutral style(B),bright style(C), liner(D) and topping jewel(E) . I think it's a great idea to put in guideline to contour eyeshadow.Time save ~

This include an fine tipped applicator, eye brush and sponge in 1 when applying,i usually use the sponge to blend the main color to create depth and brush to contour ,but back again ,it's depend on how you usually use it!look at the powder, very shimmering~ Im so in the mood of the shimmer makeup since its already holiday season ~ahaha

This is the color when applied on my hand, from right to left : A,C,E,B,D

Personally i like the darker palette more because it applies well while the lighter color need extra layers to be able really show up, just like the topping jewels (C) which can be use to highlight the inner corner of eyes.

Next is ...

♥ CANMAKE Quick Easy Eyeliner in Black

Original price : ¥500

tbh its' my second time using time using this product and i still love love it!

The pen is pointed,gives you a thick black line in just one stroke .Intense color for all daylong,pretty fast to dry and doesn't smudge.This is why i always prefer to use pen liner rather than liquid eyeliner,it;s just easy to apply for upper eyelids and lower lash ! Very recommended for those who are first learning a make up even or daily

♥ CANMAKE Coloful Nails

#11Lemon Cream and #36 Strawberry Milk

Original price : ¥360 per item

Actually in there's many options of couple nail polish in the set but i choose this set that has these two just because i run out of yellow nail polish kkk!first time for me to try nail polish by canmake, pretty nice i think ,it came out evenly also stay long enough

thankfully yellow one is fine but the pink one need multiply in order to stand out ~

♥ CANMAKE Heart Shaped Keychain

This is the only non makeup product , but that's what attract me the most through the whole set actually ;) the design might be simple but im sucker for a pretty little things like this.Best part is,,it's LIMITED only for the glamour set,I don't find it separately sell

BAG CHARM ~

Love the illustration at the back of this makeup pouch!

Soo girly and cute at the same time!

The pouch is now used as my daily make up pouch

that i carry anywhere!

CANMAKE is suitable for those who prefer quick-easy makeup with affordable price, just like what this SET purposed for,so does for those who love to wear girly makeup.You can tell form the brand.Obviously within their packaging,color palettes,and promotion.

Rate

★★★★

4 of 5 stars

I would constantly use their product as I am satisfied enough to use them during my daily activity.Some of their product like the eyeliner,powder and lipstick are my favorites while the others are good enough to satisfy me.Sadly, it kinda hard for me to find their product in SG

last time i can't find any at Watson or SASA branches T_T Luckily,John Little at Plaza Singapura still had it and their collection is pretty equipped there along with another Japanese make up brands.Make sure you go straight there if you're looking for CANMAKE ! hehe~

[REVIEW] TONY MOLY BERRY TRENDY BUBBLE 7R RED WINE

Saturday, August 23, 2014

Hello Hello !

Few months ago,i decided to re-colour my hair because my black roots already grown longer
as you can see above,so contrast with my hair ends ~.~
last time i dyed my hair was around August 2013 it was Raspberry Jam by Palty

almost one year ,meh.no doubt the red hue have gotten fade

Many of you may know that bubble hair color often produced by Japan brands

as I myself ,also fan Japan bubble hair color,simply because it's practical

But earlier this year ,i just know that Tony Moly which is a Korean brand produced their own bubble hair color! Since some of my make ups and skincare are also from Tony Moly ,I dare to give it a try
Based on what I've experience, the quality of its makeup product and skincare are pretty good tho..
So...why not?

Specification
Color : Red Wine
Origin : South Korea
Price : about 5.500 KRW

Unlike Japanese bubble hair like Palty,Liese Prettia ,Beauty Labo that usually packaged in cute design,
This Tony Moly Bubble Hair Color aiming simple design. This feels somewhat exclusive .

The Color Chart Results
It works like this ; The more light color of the origin hair,then the red hue will be more strong
So,If your hair is originally jet black don't be surprised that it will hint only slight of red on your hair
notice that it may not gives you 100% similar results like what shown in the box
even though,you hair is already bleached ,it may turns just 'pretty-same-look' due to
different types of hair and condition
Ah,and please note that i never done bleached my hair before

Inside The Box

1. Pump bottle

2. Hand Gloves

3. Color Liquid bottle

4. Hair Treatment Sachet

5.Manual Script (in Hangul)

The manual script comes in Hangul ,but at least the illustration help us to understand

Ah! If you're also a hair bubble user before,the usage is pretty much same with the others brand :)

Steps

1. Pour all the Color Liquid from Black Bottle into the Pump Bottle

2.Carefully close tight the Pump Bottle

3.Start to shake it upside down for 10 until 15 times ,just like the illustration in (step 2)

4. Check that your mixture is well blended by push the pump gently

4. The foam should be came out purple just like this

5.Divide your hair into sections,Start from the base to the ends ,

Apply the foam just like you're shampooing your hair

6.It's important to make sure that the foam apply to your hair evenly , you can look up at the mirror or ask others to help

7.If you're done,and wait for 30 minutes for the hair color works on your hair

7.After 30 minutes passed,You can shower your hair with lukewarm water and use The Hair Treatment sachet to prevent your hair from dryness

8.Blow dry your hair and..Tada! New hair color is here!

My black roots definitely cover up!

But Ehhck..my hair becomes so dry than before ! >,<

I would say that this product effective to highlight your hair and the pigment is strong
but i can't help the dryness after.I don't know which was wrong ,
the chemical itself too strong or the hair treatment doesn't help.
This is the first time I kinda disappointed with Tony Moly,
well for their hair products of course;__;

Also,I feel like Tony Moly really inverse with Palty .

While Palty doesn't really shown up the red color tint,
it makse my hair softer and kinda oily

Rate

★★★

3 out of 5 stars from me,

/ps. i re-dyed my hair at salon 1 month later after this because the color starts fading

so it's only gives the strong red pigment 1- 2-weeks after coloring

Read about my past hair bubble experience with different brand :

----- Etude House Sweet Orange, Etude House Red Wine ,
Palty Sugar Brown, ,Blaune Pink Brown , Tony Moly Red Wine ,
Liese Cassis Berry, Liese Provence Rose , Liese Jewel Pink ---
