OMG re writing this cause I accidentally closed the browser UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyway..
Hey guys! Time passes by too quickly already leh, it was like weeks when I did my September favourites and now bam, it's the end of October! Soon it'd be Christmas and New Year! Yay!
As you can tell from the title, it's another favourites post. But this time, it isn't all beauty, heh. I've got a favourite hair and beauty product and also a book to share for this month!
Let's just get on with it~
So the first favourite item for this month is a hair product.

Who uses dry shampoo? I used to hate using dry shampoo cause it always end up in a mess, but now I love it. LOL. I started using Batiste dry shampoo cause my hair is always very oily and when I do not have time to wash my hair, dry shampoo is the option!

The one on the right is my first Batiste dry shampoo! It's so good cause it complete absorb all the oil in my scalp resulting in volumised hair! Not kidding man! It does work for me. Plus it smells nice heh. I needed to get another cause it was finishing, so I got the "Cool and Crisp Fresh" this time.
Plus you know how it's so hard to have volumised hair and clean scalp here in Singapore because of the super hot weather. Wherever we go, we perspire immediately and oil ended up everywhere lol. Thank God for dry shampoo, made life so much more easier.
Everyone should be familiar with the next product!

Maybelline's Baby Skin Pore Eraser! I've actually heard of this product super long time ago but I didn't get it cause I thought I wouldn't need it. Until recently I started becoming annoyed with my pores and since I've seen a few beauty gurus used it, I decided to try it out. You could also use it as a primer so why not?
It's hard to get it here in Singapore cause damn ex, so I got mine from JB cause its super duper cheap!! ((the ringgit now remember))
Its super light weight on my skin though its texture is a little oily. I use it before I start my makeup and apply it on my nose and cheek area. Loving this product so far!
Moving on, I've started going back to reading as I had stated on my previous post. So I recently finished reading..

The author wrote the popular series called Throne of Glass. I've never read it before so I'm planning to check it out since this book from her is damn good!
Basically this book is sort of fantasy/mystical romance ((love these genres!!)) and it's about a girl named Feyre, who is a huntress. After killing a faery, she is then brought to a castle to live with Tamlin, the High Lord of Spring Court and bam, let the romance commence.
If you love romance/fantasy books, you should totally check this book out!
The thing about me when I read books is that I can't stop lol. I would just keep reading and reading till I reached the end. So technically if you give me a nice fiction book which is about fantasy/mystical/romance/thriller/suspense, I could practically ignore my surroundings until I read finish.
Plus I get so sad when I'm done cause it's like "what to do with my life now" mode, LOL. Oh, and don't you just fall in love with the characters of a really good book. It'd be so awesome if every of the books I read has a movie for it.
Anyway, so here's my October favourites!!
Typing this out straight after I come back from school lol.
Time to go back to studying. See yall in my next post! Byee!!
God Bless <3

Hey!! A very very quick post here! So school has officially started and I am still tryna get rid of all the holiday vibes and to prioritise stuff now.
It's gonna be the weekend soon and I really can't wait. Since it's only the first week of school, it isn't really too hectic yet cause there was only lectures and no tutorials, so whew.
But yeah, back to all the group projects, assignments and exams. Talk about life of a student here in Singapore.
I am typing this out cause I've got no lesson today so I get to stay home! Yay. This semester is so different from 1.1, school either end at 1pm or 7pm for me for the whole week.
Okay, enough about school. So I started on The Walking Dead Season 6 and it has been awesome so far! I just watched episode 2 and the suspense is killing me.
cutie
Oh and I also started Supernatural Season 11! WOOHOO. #hotwinchesters.
You must be like, "didn't you start school already? So free to watch show meh?" Haha, well I'm a little free for only this week only I guess. Next week onwards, I'd probably be like ripping my hair off because of all the assignments and project stuff. UGH.
Oh and I've also started going back to reading books! Yes, I do read lol. Right now I'm reading a fantasy/romance/mythical book, I would say I love these type of books. Yeah, the vampire/wolves/fairies stuff. LOL.
Before I forget, I might be doing a post on BB creams by Etude House cause right now they are having an event for their 1 year anniversary opening of their flagship store at Wisma, and its where we could go online and play a game and we could win some prizes!
Being a major fan, I played it almost everyday lol ((we have 5 tries a day I think)), and I won like a BB cream kit! So I might do a review when I'm free, so wait for it! :)
Okay, I said it would be a short post..
Shall go back to reading my book and jammin to Taylor Swift.
God bless <3

Hey guys! :) I am back with a quick post! So all along I am a person who doesn't care about how much I weigh and whether I look fat or not. But obviously, we all have insecurities now and then right? On some days I don't care how my body looks, I just go
But on some days, whenever I come across prettier girls who doesn't seem to have a single percent of fat in their body, I go
But I wouldn't say I hate my body, I wouldn't go all the way to that extend. However, I do feel like I have been so unhealthy lately by constantly eating and lazying around ((especially since its the holidays)), thus I felt like I had to do something. So, I decided to start dieting!
But nope, it's not the kind of dieting where I force myself to stop eating or whatsoever. It's a kind of healthier dieting I guess? I decided to start a one-carbs-meal-per-day diet. In which I would eat only one meal with carbs each day ((mainly for lunch)) and when it comes to dinner, its a no-carbs meal!
I would be trying this out for a month and at the end of the month, I shall see if I lose weight! But on top of dieting, I still exercise I suppose. Healthier way of losing weight remember?
Anyway, I'm writing this because I know some girls out there feel very insecure about their body. I blame society for that, who says a girl needs to have a supermodel body? Some girls are starving themselves in order to achieve a body which they think would be acceptable in this society, but come on, stop torturing your body. If someone calls you fat, just
punch them in the face repeatedly remind yourself, that you're beautiful, don't conform to society standards.
Go ahead and enjoy pizzas, smoothies and cookies! But try not to overeat cause those are unhealthy.. I feel that every girl shouldn't be bothered by what society wants them to be. Just be yourself, no matter what body size you are, how you look, the type of clothing you wear, I think everyone is beautiful in their own special way.
I get pressured sometimes, to lose weight, and getting called fat. But to be honest, I know myself, I know that my weight is in a healthy range and that it is not "fat". But even if I was, it's my body, myself. If I want to lose weight, I will, but if I don't, then I won't,
I'll probably just enjoy food cause food is life. Don't let what others and society says let it affect you, if you are a plus size so what? What matters most is that you are healthy and happy! ((if you are not living healthily, better start today!!))
I know it seems hard, after all there are lots of prettier and skinnier girls around, but trust me, love yourself. Have self love, only then can you look in the mirror and think "Wow, I look so hot." LOL. Self love boost your confidence and lessen your insecurities. We would always find things to be insecure about, which is why we gotta lessen the insecurity and find the confidence in ourselves.
Okay, so all done with the pep talk! I just wanna say that me dieting is not because I feel like I'm too fat blah blah blah, it's because I've probably gained a little weight ((double chins are coming out)) and I feel unsatisfied, which is why I'm gonna try out this form of dieting! I want to do something about this weight gain and not because I have to, get the difference?
Cause I don't want to sound like a hypocrite.. So if you feel like you gained weight but you don't want to do anything about it, it's totally fine! Unless of course, your health is at risk, if not, you are still beautiful!
preach honey boo boo!
Anyway, enough of all these. School is starting next week which means lesser time to blog. Sigh. I'll try to update occasionally if I am free, so see yall~! :D
God bless <3

So today I went over to le best friend's house because we wanted to hang out and it was her off day and she asked me to go over and since I have never been to her house for a very long time, I said okay.
We decided to filmed a video for her channel and I borrowed her equipment to filmed a "What's in my phone" video for my YouTube channel cause it's so dead and le best friend suggested I filmed something.
Besides filming videos, we also had a mini photoshoot lmao. ((Yeah, a two person crew photoshoot)) So I'm just gonna leave some photos for yall to see lmao.



I was laughing at something, forgot what.

After she took this photo, she LOLed so hard. ((I didn't purposely make this pose hor, I didn't even realise my pose was like this lol))

My favorite! Hehe!
The entire time we were jamming to Beyonce, Girl's Generation, The Sam Willows and Bangtan Boys, so I kinda went a little crazy in front of the camera lmao.
She totally upgraded her camera equipment! Previously she had only her dslr, but now she even has a legit microphone and ring light! Which is why the photos are damn nice! Heh!
Oh ya, all the photos got no photoshop hor, lol.
You can go and see le best friend's pictures on her instagram, so follow her here!
She helped me take lots and lots of photos but these fews are the ones I considered the best and nicest ones! When I mean nicest, I don't mean like the rest aren't nice lah, I meant like these photos here are the ones where I looked the best lol. The rest I looked "meh" only.
So here's my "What's in/on my phone" video that I filmed and edited today!

Just a short post today, will be drafting more upcoming posts for this month! Look forward to them! :D
Ps: Claris would be uploading the video we filmed next week, so in the meantime, yall can check out her channel here and watch her videos! :)
God Bless <3
UPDATE: so le best friend, Claris has finally uploaded the Best Friend Tag Part 2 that we filmed for her channel!

Hi hi! I'm back with another beauty review!
Ever since I bought the Any Cushion, I have always wanted to write a review, but I was always procrastinating. Sigh. But anyway, it's here!
Okay, so first off, before using this Any Cushion, I was using normal BB cream as my makeup base. Just regular BB cream ((from Etude House, yes, major fan remember?)). It wasn't until I actually got an online coupon where I could redeem a sample version of this Precious Mineral Any Cushion.
Now, a cushion and a BB cream is similar! Except that BB cream is obviously, purely liquid, and in a bottle kind! Cushions, however, are like BB creams in cushion form! Which is why it is super convenient!
So this is how the sample size looked like




I received the above shade and thank God it suited my skin! The thing about sample BB creams or cushion is that the shade you received might not suit your skin tone.
Anyway, so after receiving the sample, I started using it for about 2 to 3 months! It could last me that long for a small size because I hardly apply makeup everyday ((yes, I don't wear makeup to school) and  I only used it for weekends.
After trying out the Any Cushion sample, I FELL IN LOVE WITH IT!
I knew I had to get the actual Any Cushion and as you know, the price at the outlets are not quite within my budget, so I resort to online lmao.
So I placed my order for the Any Cushion from Qoo10 and within a few days, it arrived! So excited to start using!
This is the actual size of the cushion


I really liked how the cushion functions. It has the puff separated from the cushion itself in order to prevent it from getting dirty, so I liked it. Kinda hygienic too.

Voila! The cushion is below! Hehe!
So before I show you how it looks on my skin, let's talk about the packaging itself first.
I guess this is a plus point for cushions as compared to normal BB creams! As I stated earlier, it is really convenient! Because it is in a compact design, I could bring it out wherever I go. I mean, I can't possibly bring my entire BB cream bottle out right?
Okay, let's move on to how it looks for my skin!
Specially for this review, you guys can see my no makeup face! LMAO.
Anyway, here is my skin before and after using this cushion.
20151004_233740    20150829_223648
Sigh, so yes, this is my no makeup look. ((these two people are me, not someone else sigh)) Yucks, look at my dark eye circles! I really need to start sleeping early!
Anyway, so as you can see, here's the before and after look! I really like how the cushion lightens my skin tone, my skin tone is quite dark ((don't be fooled by the lighting in the photo, my skin tone is quite dark unlike those pretty K actresses)) so I was glad it could lighten it. Also, it does a good job in "smoothing" my skin, it is able to cover up those tiny pimples! But of course, to get that "perfect" skin, concealer is needed too.
The after photo has concealer applied after I used the cushion, which is why my skin looks perfect! Or almost, hehe.
20150829_173303 (2)
Here's another clearer look! As much as I wanted to add filters to the photos to make it look better, I didn't want to because I really wanna show you guys how my skin looks like.
The Any Cushion does moisturizing, whitening and anti wrinkles plus it has SPF50! Bonus points for sun protection function!! :D It also corrects skin tone ((mine remember, heh))!
I am glad I chose this Any Cushion as my first cushion! Plus, it has a great scent! If you read my Color in Liquid Lips also from Etude House review, yall would know that one of the reasons why I love Etude House products is because they all smell nice lol.
Okay, I shall end my review here! ((Writing this while having stomach cramps sigh ok tmi sorry))
Off to roll around in bed to divert my attention from the cramps ugh
Feel free to leave your opinions on cushions down at the comments! Would love to hear yall opinions!
:D
God Bless <3

I know not many people uses Facebook nowadays as compared to Instagram and Twitter, but when I was in primary school, Facebook was the "in" thing. Lots of people were using it, twitter wasn't that well known yet, and boy, what was Instagram.
So I started using Facebook in Primary 5 ((11 years old then)) cause all my friends were using it, and technically, 11 year olds aren't really allowed on Facebook I think, so I lied about my age lmao. But I'm sure my friends did too.
When I started using it, I was kinda fascinated by it. LOL. I was like
I mean, afterall it was something new to me and you could even play games! ((Pet society remember?!))
And being a geeky annoying primary school kid, my status box was frequently updated lmao. So, the following screenshots are my super duper old Facebook statuses that make me wanna punch myself in the face. ((and make yall laugh at me lmao))
OMG WTF WAS I THINKING?! I was a major Miley Cyrus fan, and here I am behaving like some stupid crazy fangirl. OMG. I wanna punch myself now that I look back. Gosh.
 
OH GOSH. I was such an idiot then. Yes yes, laugh at/with me cause I'm so darn stupid then. AND ANNOYING. I am being annoyed by myself now wtf. Excuse me 11 year old me, NO ONE CARES WHAT YOU ARE DOING OMG.
This was when I started Secondary school, facebook seemed like an easy way to connect with ALL of my school mates since I might not have everyone's number then LMAO. *slap myself*
WHO TF LIKES THEIR OWN POST?! WTF BRITNEY WHAT WERE YOU THINKING YOU BRAT OMG. I'm gonna go dig a hole and bury myself in it.
I guessed I thought fb was like a online diary. LMAO
What was I thinking then?! OMG! Like no one cares. and I still post omg.
yup, childish me GOSH OMG. I think I was sort of having some kind of fight(?) with a friend of mine? I really can't remember gosh.
bimbo me. wtf was I talking about? OMG.
I am not gonna post the rest cause there really is too much of lame, annoying, bimbotic, geeky etc statuses that I had. You can go onto my profile and stalk me all the way from 2010 onwards if you wanna see more of my super embarrassing statuses. ((Only those whom I friends with on fb!)) or tell me if you want part 2! :D
Go ahead and laugh, cause I made this post for yall to laugh one lol!
Even I myself kept laughing at how stupid I looked with all these super lame statuses omg.
Now I don't update my status that much ((nope, no more weird ones like the above)) unless I updated my blog or other stuff.
I just use facebook for news, see whats up with people and games ((when I'm bored lmao)).
So, practically the above gifs are my feelings for my old statuses.
I'm just gonna bury myself now. Byee.
God Bless <3
