I AM BACK and ready for business!

Hello my beautiful followers. I know that I have been gone for a very long time, but I am back and I am here to stay. For good this time. Now, I can't tell you guys that I will post everyday, but I will post more than once a week, I promise. So with my come back, I am adding two knew things to the blog and my Youtube channel. I hate to self-promote, but could you guys take some time and check out my Youtube channel? Please and Thank You. So back to what I am adding, I origonally started this blog to talk about Asia, Asian makeup and of course Asian Music. And with that in mind, I will be adding Asian Food and Drink Tasting posts as well as K-Pop Korner posts. I will be eating and reviewing Asian food, and of course reviewing K-Pop bands and songs. And the first posts for each will be up tomorrow hopefully, (maybe).

So how have you guys been? Have you been as busy as I have? With my Junior year coming to an end in June, I have been stressing to maintain high grades to make honor roll all year long, and for me that is not easy, but I am trying. I recently took my SAT's for the first time, I didn't score what I needed to for the scholarship that I am trying for. But I have all of next year to take it and I am going too.

Eric and I have been busy with planning our 1 year. And with him that is a lot of work, but somehow I manage. Being with Eric in general is a lot of work. ^_^ And I am trying to talk him into doing the Boyfriend Does My Makeup Tag, but he's scared and I don't know why. It's just all in fun.

Have you guys been reading anything good lately? I am reading Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen. Have any of you read it? I am only on Chapter Two, but I really like it. It's a lot different than what I normally read, but it's a good different.

I recently got a job, so I can spend more on makeup now, although I still have to pay back my mom for the last makeup trip. I didn't stay in my budget even though I used coupons. And I thought that I was better at that now, but I guess not.

Have you ever heard of Lindsey Stirling? She is this awesome Violinist that plays the Violin but it has Dubstep mixed into it and it's pretty awesome. Crystallize - Lindsey Stirling It's a pretty awesome song. I was listening to it while I was writing this post. ^_^

Do you guys have a favorite movie or tv show at the moment? I have been watching a lot of the National Geographic and Animal Planet channels, and I have know idea why. I guess I am just into learning about animals. I really like The Incredible Doctor Pol. I think that show is so cool. I love animals. And I even bought two nanny goats on Monday. They are so cute and their names are Miku and Minnie, and I shall post pictures soon.

I will see you guys later. And I hope you are as excited as I am that I am back to blogging. Love You!!!!

ALMAY tlc( truly lasting color) 16 Hour Makep Review

Hey guys! I have been dying to try a new foundation. I have a very hard time finding a color that matches, but this one matches perfectly. It is very smooth and creamy. And I believe that you could build it up to full coverage. I don't like to do that because summer causes me to sweat alot, and I find that if I use alot of foundation, I am more acne prone also. The formula is light and I find that you don't need a lot to help cover everything you need to. The color I bought is Ivory/ 120 and it has more pink tones to it.

I find that it blends in really well and doesn't run if you touch it or you are out in the heat for a really long time.

I would probably give this product a 9 out of 10. I say this only cause it is a tad bit more expensive than I would rather pay.

But it is a really good foundation. I would use it again.

Hope this is helpful. ^_^

Maybelline New York Color Tattoo Review


Hey guys! It’s time for another review! I am actually kind of excited for this review. My favorite cosmetic product is eye shadow. I absolutely love eye shadow. So let’s start the review. The product I am reviewing is Maybelline New York Color Tattoo by Eyestudio in 35 Tough as Taupe.

                                     

I picked up this product because I had been watching one of Michelle Phan’s videos on Youtube, and she had said that Taupe was a good go to color for everything. So I had taken her advice and picked up the creamy version. When I had used it this morning, I realized you can use it for multiple purposes.

 

I used it for eye liner, but I also noticed that it matches my eye brow color almost perfectly. So I might be tempted to use it in place of my Etude House eye brow pencil, because it happens to be to dark.

 

I had bought this product from our local WalMart and they don’t have one you can try and swatch so I was nervous. But I opened it this morning and applied it as eyeliner and fell in love with it. It is not to light and it is not to dark.

 

It goes on really smooth and I think that it would go well with just about anything. It also goes on really great and I am absolutely in love with it and I would definitely repurchase this product.

EXO-K MAMA Inspired Makeup

With EXO's comeback just around the corner, I thought I would show my support through makeup.

I started off with Primed and Poreless from Two Faced. I applied this to the areas where my pores were large and noticeable. I applied it with a small concealer brush.
Next I used Smooth Skin Liquid Makeup by NYC in 676 Ivory. I put a little bit on the back of my hand and then used my fingures to apply it to my face.
Next I am going to use Stay Matte pressed Powder by Rimmel London in 001 Transparent. I am going to use a powder brush to apply it to my face.
Next I am going to use my ELF Eyelid Primer to prime my eyelid and under my eye.
Next I am going to use Benefit Creaseless Cream Shadow in Bikini-Tini, and apply it all over the eyelid. Also apply it along the bottom lash line.
Now to start representing EXO. I am going to apply a gray or silver eye shadow. Start along the outer lash line and bring it all the way fo your inner eye. Leaving the center untouched.
The silver and gray represent Kai and Luhan.
Next onto Xiumin and Suho. Both have aafer powers, so I will be using a pretty blue color. Apply the blue to your bottom lash line and to the outter corner of your eyes.
Now for Chanyeol and Kris who both deal with fire. I am going to use a bright red lip stain, with a little bit of orange eye shadow to brighten it up. I am using a small brush to apply it with.
I applied a little bit of lip liner first. I used Overexposure by Smashbox. And I am using a pink lip gloss to tone it down.
For Kyungsoo, I am going fo use a brown eyeliner and line the top and bottom lash lines.
For Chen, who is Thunder and Lightning, I am going to use black sparkly liquid liner on the top and bottom outter lash line.
For Baekhyun, who is light, I am going to use a cream color for the inner corners and as a highlighter on my eyes.
And that is my EXO inspired makeup. Hope you enjoyed.

Etude House Moistful Collagen Cream Review.

With my love of Asian beauty products, I couldn't help but want to try this Moistfull Cream. I actually got this as free gift when I purchased my first Etude House nail polish. This came as a set of three, a mask, an essance, and the moisturizer. I have only used the essance and the moisturizer and I love them. I use them about three or four times a week and I have really been able to tell a difference in my skin. It's a lot softer and it has a natural kind of sheen to it. I had even mixed this in with my BB Cream one day, and my skin atucally felt refreshed when i washed off my makeup. One of the bad things about this set, is that they retail for about 8.00 a piece on line and the set all together is roughly 20 something. So on to the review of the cream, if you can call it that. It has a kind of lotion texture and you don't need alot. It has a very pretty smell. I find that important because I don't like to use products that smell like chemicals. When you put it on, it blends into your skin very easily. So over all I give this product a 9 out of 10 only becaue it's expensive and it's not a very large amount of product, only 50 ml.

Easter Nails

The first thing I did was put on two coats of Confetti - Black Tie.

I applied this to every finger but my ring finger. That is going to be my accent nail.

Now for the accent nail I am using Sephora by OPI in Techno Girl. Again I applied to coats of polish to my ring finger.

The next step is to make Daisies.
To do this take either a white or purple-ish nail polish and make five dots in kind of a circle shape.
Then take a toothpick and drag it threw the polish into the middle.
 When you have all of your nails done, dot an orange or yellow into the middle and you have Daisies.
 For the centers on mine I used a gold nail art polish and NYC in Times Square Tangerine Creme.

For the accent nails I am going to try and makeup them look like easter eggs. I am using the same NYC Orange and also a Rimmel London in Mintilicious.
To create the dyed effect on Easter eggs, I am just going paint stripes onto my accent nails, using both colors.

To finish off these nails I am adding a little bit of glitter and Top Coat to complete the look.

I hope you guys like this and try your own Easter inspired nails.

I credit the Daisy idea to Lindy or Bubzbeauty.

Finally Organized!!!

Hey there lovelies,
      How have you guys been? I hope good. So I have some good news, I guess. I have finally managed to get all of my makeup and skincare items organized! And believe me when I say that this was no easy thing to do. I never realized how much makeup I actually had. And as I was doing all of this, I actually rotated my collection so now I have less makeup then I did before, but it's still quite a lot for a 10th grader. Pretty soon I will have two new videos up on my YouTube channel. Maybe even three, because I haven't decided if I want to do an Easter Nail Video or just the makeup collection video and the Easter Makeup tutorial. Would you guys be interested in seeing those? So let me know. I hope you all have a great Easter and I'll see you soon.
    P.S. Do you guys still color Easter Eggs?
