🍑 Peaches & Swatches 🍑

Swatches coming right up!  @joycelynthiang   But really FML because I used my phone to snap this photo and realizes it shows pigmentation so much more clearly than my camera. My camera was not behaving today 😑 hope the photos turned out ok. Lunch first! My arm is so raw from rubbing with makeup remover now 😂 #dayrebeauty This is lunch, guys. KFC's Parmesan Chicken with Truffle Cheese Dip. Be right back. 😛 Starting off with a photo of the palette! 18 colours for $76. Black Members seem to be getting 10% off now, so around $68? The colours are mostly warm and shimmery. First thoughts: CANDIED PEACH. I was the most excited for this after seeing Kathleenlight's no mirror makeup challenge. I didn't expect it to be a coral shade with gold glitter because it looked coral in her video. This palette has more satins and shimmers than mattes (which I prefer over shimmers). First half of the palette with the lighter shades (which I'm not too stoked about, m

Current song obsession: Taeyang's Eyes, Nose, Lips duet with a fan on Fantastic Duo. This has been all over my FB newsfeed! Gotta admit I've never really liked the song too much (just listened to it once or twice) but this duet blew me away. It's been on replay as I study for finals! (I can't study without music). I love Bigbang's songs. Check out the quartet where they sing Loser with other fans too! It's really heaven for the ears. 😻 Current show that I'm following: Jackpot (it reads as "Daebak" in Korean) - about DaeGil (Jang Geun Suk) who bets his life in a gambling match with King Yeongjo (Yeo Jin Goo); Yeongjo bets the entire Joseon. So exciting LOL. For once I have no idea how the show is going to turn out. Historically, Yeongsu (now DaeGil in Jackpot) died as a child, so Prince Yeoning, his younger brother, eventually became King Yeongjo. So... I assume Yeongjo wins the match but I don't want DaeGil to die! I'm a

Day 117

Just checked this out on #Fayth!  To be honest it's shorter than I'd like (32", I normally stick to 33" for convenience's sake) but I couldn't let go of the print. So pretty? 😍 not sure if it's the exam stress talking though, so I really hope it won't be too short. Please please please. 🙏🏻 Side note: found a buyer who's buying me the Korean Harper's Bazaar from HK. It's apparently the Chinese edition? Hope it's going to have the same content otherwise I'll be really disappointed. State of mind. When I was deciding whether or not to buy the Fayth dress, I told my sister it's only 32" which is too short for me, seeing as the 33" Norvin from RWB I bought a couple of weeks back was short enough to be completely inconvenient. (Cannot bend, cannot move, cannot run). She told me to measure that dress first before I make any decisions. So I ran to my wardrobe in a rush (in case the fayth sells out) to measure it.

When you receive a parcel full of makeup but almost none of it is yours 😞 Featuring: Two Faced Natural Matte, Sleek Blush in Santa Marina ( @mehmehsheep ), Zoeva brushes in 127 Luxe Sheer Cheek & 230 Pencil, Zoeva lip crayon in Sweet Heat ( @ngjieling ), and a teeny weeney thebalm's Mary Lou Manizer. Plus a VMW Know-It-All Coconut Oil. I think this fur mat was a pretty good investment for less than $2. 😏 The packaging is so pretty! Bought this for the bestie but now I want to keep it for myself, hehe. I'm so glad she told me what she wanted though because I hate thinking of birthday presents! We normally buy each other presents based on asking the other person what she wants haha. Last year I got her a Fayth maxi and she got me a Sensibar bangle! Strapless, Honey Butter, Chocolate Cookie. I think I would love those 3 shades. Obviously I can't swatch them because it's a present, but I opened it to make sure the eyeshadows were intact. So pretty! EDI

Harper's Bazaar / Courier rant

This month's Harper's Bazaar Korea. 😍 I saw this on Dramabeans and started a frantic search to see how I could purchase this... Not because of DotS ok! I must clarify because when I told my friend I wanted to get the Korean HB, she literally said "Hazel why do you need it? If you tell me it's coz of dots I'm going to really punch you". 😂 So ya, it's not because of DotS, it's because I've really always liked him. PLUS Seoul Fashion Week! And HB posted a video of him asking people to support his photos (like as if he needed to ask, really). I had a #cheapthrill moment when I understood his Korean. I posted a request on AirFrov but someone requested SGD15 to buy it and that's total SGD18 for a magazine that costs 6000 won (plus I must travel to the office to self collect). 😳 Supposed to be saving money this month ya? Not that I'm a cheapo or what, but I draw the line at some things haha. Like at this age I know I shouldn't

How cute are these! 😍 I wonder where to buy them? Actually after DotS ended I'm not feeling any hung-up, or those crazy "let me stalk every piece of news about it" feelings. When Healer ended I remember stalking every single one of Ji Chang Wook's interviews. But that might be because I've already watched all of Joong Ki's interviews in the past already. 😂 All the old RM episodes that people are digging out now to show how charming he used to be? (All with Jihyo haha Song-chemistry again) I already watched all those episodes at least thrice, swooned and 😍 too many times when they aired. Or when SKKS was showing in maybe 2010, and I went crazy over him and Yoo Ah In. Maybe this is why after DotS, I'm just like, "well, this is a normal feeling." There's no other interview or clips of him that I haven't seen already so I can't even fangirl anymore. 😂 Hehe and a couple of nights ago I was talking to  @ngjieling  and promised h
