BOO.


My hair color is so nice in that photo LOL!


Feel kinda bad that I didn't get anything for my girls Calista, Wanying & Zelan. Been giving & receiving gifts during secondary school days and have stopped since poly started. So I'm not used to it already. Neither am I going to post "Happy Valentines' Day!" and stuff like that on Twitter & Facebook because V-Day is SO overrated over there.

I believe that,

"If two persons truly love each other, everyday is Valentines' Day."

Yes I quoted it although I don't know where this originated from. But it's true! Why bother to express your love only on this particular day? Does that mean you don't love your partner during the rest of the 364 days?

Of course that's strictly my personal opinions. You don't have to agree with me (: It's still nice to give and receive gifts!



That's my lecturer's favorite V-Day phrase. Just thought I'd snap a picture of it hahaha!

Lastly,


Got a portable charger for my brother as V-Day gift! He just got an iPhone and I know he wants a portable charger! He's just got his pay and I hope that he didn't go get one himself! I left the gift on his table and he's not back yet. I hope he won't see this post before he sees the real thing!!!

Who says I can't give my brother a gift on V-Day?!

Alright. Gotta go draft myself a study timetable. Exams in exactly TWO weeks time!

By the way, this shall be my last entry for now until the end of my exams! Good luck to me!

BOO.

I'm back to update! Was only updating at SwytRainbowFairy. But I thought it's time to come back for awhile!

How's your Chinese New Year? Mine was okay I guess. Nothing too special!

Photos!

Pardon me for the large photos. Uploaded using Photobucket and it only gave me a choice of original sizes or thumbnails. Thumbnails are so freaking small! I hope these photos won't affect the html of my blog! If they do then I'll have to edit the sizes one by one! T_T


My look for CNY Day1.


First try with this hairstyle! Super ugly. There's a nicer one below!


Front look. The hair looks like a regular half ponytail!


Real 'Money Tree' at my cousins' house. The fans were made by real SGD$2 notes! Those "limited edition" orange notes! $_$ I counted. It's worth $18 hahaha!


Baby John!


Visiting with my mother!


My cousin Shantelle!


My aunt with Baby John! He's so cute right! And my aunt looks so pretty here.

More Baby John!






Day 'X'. (I cannot remember when LOL!)


With bro on the.. Gam-erhem-bling table.


MAH PERFECT HAIR!

Baby Jericho!




Went to Sebby's house last Saturday!




Then to Xuan's house for BBQ!

Seb's 如来神掌 on xuan's back while he was busy starting the fire for the BBQ.


Mah laojie, Sebby, & mah laogong!




Hahaha. They were trying to help xuan block the wind!

Didn't take any more photos that day because we're busy playing and I was sick!

And that was the end of my Chinese New Year 2012!

BOO.


LOL. Okay kinda lame but I got them as gifts when my mother and I bought boots from Hush Puppies. The boots are for my Korea trip!

Anyways, I have so many blogs/platforms to update that I no longer know WHEN I should update WHICH with WHAT. So I've been thinking for awhile just now, and I came up with:

swytnightmares.blogspot (this): for all my makeup/skincare/haircare/hairstyle AKA beauty-related hauls/favourites/tips and whatnot. And maybe just a little part of my life :D

SwytRainbowFairy will officially become my life blog since I'll be updating there twice a week! VISIT THERE! It's gonna be so fun when we read these entries 5-10 years later, especially when there's not only gonna be about my life but my 2 girlfriends' too!

Tumblr is for super short updates and photos!

LiveJournal is still my emo blog. Go there if you're really interested but some entries cannot be seen by mortal eyes... LOL okay they're just either 'friends-only' or 'private'. If you want you can try your luck. HA!

And of course not forgetting Twitter! Live happenings of my life LOL!

Lalalalala~ Let's get on with "official" stuff.

Bought this when I went shopping with my cousin the other day.


Contains two types of hyaluronic acid which coats hair surface making it smooth, and quickly retains moisture in hair to straighten dry or bed head hair.
- Penetrating hyaluronic acid: works into hair to capture moisture
- Coating hyaluronic acid: coats hair surface to make it smooth
- Light fragrance (Green Floral Scent)

Hyaluronic acid effect
Instantly moisturizes hair and brings a rich moist finish from inside out without being sticky.

So obviously this is for straight hair, which is meant for me! My cousin got the other one for permed hair. Her's is a pink bottle!

Been using it for a few days now. I feel that it did do what it's supposed to do: 1) moisturize and 2) smooth my hair! And most importantly, it's really not sticky so I don't have to wash my hands even if I run them through my hair after spraying!

The green floral scent is refreshing! Although I still think that Liese's Hair Cocktail (sampled some on my hair while shopping that day) smells way nicer and stronger. Fruity. But it's a smaller bottle, more expensive, and Lucido-L was on sale :p

I don't know why but now I always smell a fruity-alcoholic smell whenever I open my room door. I wonder if it's this treatment water (it most probably is) because it's supposed to be floral instead of fruity! And where did the alcoholic smell come from?! The ingredients include alcohol LOL.

Next up!


2 words: it works.

Seriously, before I got my hands on this high-end eyelash curler I thought all curlers are the same as the cheap curler I bought from Sasa a long time ago: works on my left eye, fails on the right.

I've always thought it's my eyes' problem because my left eye has double lids and the lashes are naturally curled, while my right eye has mono lids and the lashes are pointed straight downwards!

But this Shiseido Eyelash Curler proved me wrong! It proved to me that my right eye's straight eyelashes can be curled too! ^^ Oh, and it STAYS! The curling power I mean!

Lastly~


Have always wanted to try using a bronzer, but bronzers are always so expensive! I knew that bronzers can be used to sculpt a smaller face so I wanted to get my hands on one before I go to Korea because I want to take nice photos! (I need time to master how to use it correctly too!)

After much online research, I decided to get one from TBS. This one received positive reviews and it's matte! (A bronzer's real mission is to give people a tanned glow but it can be used for shading too.) A matte one is better for shading. Shimmery ones will catch light and that's why it gives more of a dewy look!

Plus, I've got a $10 rebate from TBS! Haha!

Haven't got any chance to try this yet. Shall find a day to try it! Super excited!

That's all folks!

BOO.


I'm used to having a photo of myself whenever I blog a new entry. But I don't have any new photos so I just used an old one hehe.

Anyways! I think guys will not be interested in this entry so if you're a guy, I allow you to click the 'X' on the top-right corner of your screen (top-left for Apple users). If you're not sure if you're a guy or a girl then read on and see if you're interested!

Spent so much within a week!

Bought last Thursday:


Bought all of this because it's my birthday month and Watsons is giving out 5x the points in my first purchase! So I just bought everything that I've wanted to buy but never did: Revlon Lipstick + MJ Liner.

The double eyelid tapes were sold out the last time I wanted to purchase. I happened to see it this time while shopping so I just grabbed 2 of it! It's not cheap you know. SGD6.90/pack!

Then I helped my mother and Ninet buy their BB Creams so that I can get more points. Hehehe.

The only thing that I HAD TO buy was the gel cleanser hahahaha. Because I ran out of it. Bought the body lotion because my legs are dehydrating O_O (I'm serious!). The only hydrated part of my body would probably be my face. It gets the most nutrients. LOL!


What a name. Bought this from G-Market. Only costs like SGD4.40 so no harm trying :p I think it's quite good though. Bought this in Pearl White so that I can use it as a highlighter. It really highlights well. Better than my Canmake Highlighter in 01 White.

And today:


You must be thinking "Why the hell do you have so MANY things to buy?!". Hahaha I don't know too. I'm a girl who's into make-up. So everything related attracts me. But did you realise I only (mostly) go to 2 brands for make-up and 1 brand for skincare? Yup. Maybelline + Majolica Majorca & Nivea. I love drugstore brands :D

Anyways, the BB Cream in Natural is for my mother (AGAIN!). Because I told her of the offer today. IT'S ONLY SOLD AT SGD10.90!!! (A freaking 35.5% discount!) I almost killed myself when I saw their catalog for today's members' event. Most of the cosmetic items are having a 30% discount! Which means that I could have gotten my Revlon Lipstick, MJ Brown Liner & the BB Creams at a cheaper price!!!

So the BB Cream in Light is for myself. Guess what? I'm still using my first tube after so many months but I bought one more when I went to Malaysia few months ago (cheap okay!). SO NOW I HAVE 3 TUBES WITH ME! SUPER KIASU CAN?!

I bought the MJ Brown Liner at SGD22.90 last week and today it's selling at SGD12.90! (43.7% off wth!) That's why I decided to get the Black one because Black is the colour I use the most.

Then I asked my mother if she wanted anything else since there's so much discounts today. (Hehehe typical Singaporean) She wanted an eyeshadow so yeah, got that.

Here comes the main leads of the day!


It's a new (at least in Singapore) product from Maybelline. I know Japan has it since quite long ago. Read/watched reviews about it and I so wanted to try them out! There's a total of 5 colours (I think) here in Singapore: Pink, Purple, Blue, Gold, Brown. Japan has White! (Which I quite wanted!) The Pink, Purple and Blue are all very babyish colours. Cute! So I got the Purple & Gold. So gonna catch'em all! LOL!

Wanted the cream eyeshadow in Pink from Shiseido but it was quite expensive (SGD32) so I kept putting off the thought. Then now Maybelline comes out with this! These shadows only costs SGD15.90 before discount. Half of Shiseido's! But I didn't get the pink one because it might make my lids appear swollen. Since I'm wearing green contact lens now, and I'll be wearing grey ones next month, I decided to get the Purple eyeshadow because Purple will bring out these 2 eye colours :D Gold is the more unique colour so I got Gold too!

I don't know why but my iPhone always adds a blueish cast to my close-up photos. So the gel shadows' colours are actually more of what you see on the black boxes.

I know. Spent a bomb this week. I saved quite a lot from last month and they're gone this month. $_$ I kept telling myself they shall be birthday gifts from me to me!

Nothing makes me happier than make-up/cosmetics (and friends of course)! Call me materialistic or whatever I don't care! I still remember my mood was so bad yesterday that even getting paid couldn't lift my mood any higher. But I'm okay now! RETAIL THERAPY FTW LOL!

Anyways, I'm not gonna do any reviews on the products I purchased above. But if you happen to be interested in them, you can ask me about them!

Lastly, was reading through some Horoscope stuff on Facebook and I came across this: Lines used by Sagittarius' after going through break-ups.


I think this is quite true. Very true actually.
