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.


Wowwwww. Haven't blog for like.. Almost a week. The last post was on my birthday! 11 more minutes (according to my clock as I look at it now, like right NOW) and I'm 20 years & 1 week old! LOL!

Exams are officially over for me! Let's not discuss too much about it. I don't want to recall my horrible experiences, especially with the Marketing paper. My favourite module became my ultimate killer. So much for paying attention LOL. I don't pay attention in the Accounting class because the lecturer is simply too fast. Most of the time I'm just blindly copying notes.. And the paper was the one I did best -____- talk about contradiction.

Or maybe... I have a thing for numbers..................... And money. HAHA! $__$

Anyways! Girls section now hahahaha (:

You know I've been very into make-up and stuff this year.. But make-up isn't make-up as a whole. There's different stages to it. And I'm currently in the Lips stage :D

Have been trying to find a light Pink lipstick and I found my Revlon Super Lustrous Matte Lipstick in 012 Sky Pink. It's a very nice Baby Pink that I'm in love with. BUT! There's a little con to it. I find it a little dry.

My lips are very dry because I seldom drink water. So when I apply the lippie it 'enhances' the cracks =/ Tried applying lip balm as a base. A little bit better, but it makes the color run ): So I decided to get a lip gloss instead. To seal the lip color and to 'cover up' the cracks!

Yes the main reason is that my lips are dry but the lipstick isn't too moisturizing too. I've read reviews saying that the matte lipstick is quite moisturizing but apparently it isn't for me ): I've compared it with a lip stick that I bought from Etude House a few months ago and that lipstick was much more moisturizing. Cracks weren't obvious as compared to when I applied the Sky Pink one.

Anyway, this was what I got:

Liquid Rouge with 70% moisturizing ingredient for lips that's feminine yet cute.

Dressier than gloss, lighter than lipstick. For lips that are a little grown up, yet remember what it's like to be cute.

That was from the website!

Wait! Let me explain. I didn't want all 3 of them. I only wanted the PK 211, because it fits my Sky Pink best. BUT! Watsons was having a Christmas Buy 2 Get 1 Free sale and Majolica was one of the participating brands! So I chose another lighter Pink and a clear (with glitter) one!

Costs SGD17.50 each but I only needed to pay $35 (U.P. $52.50) and I had $8 worth of points that could be deducted from my member card. So I only paid $27! Average $9 each!

I figured that I wouldn't be able to use so many of them since I only have one pair of lips. So I've decided to GIVE THEM AWAY!!! (To my 2 girlfriends! HAHA!)

Decided to take photos of myself with the lipstick/gloss so that I can compare them.


Thanks to my iPhone, the colors here look almost the same except whether it's glossy, or not. But I'm quite sure there's a difference between my original lip color, the Revlon Sky Pink and the Etude Shiny Pink Shower. The Etude one was supposed to be a hotter Pink!

I've learnt my lesson. I WILL use my digital camera to take these kinda comparison photos the next time round.

Lastly, just felt like showcasing my 'Lips Collection'. LOL!


All my lips-related products smell damn nice! Damn fruity. Except for the Maybelline fragrance free and my Revlon Sky Pink!

TEEHEE!

P.S. You know your nails are TOO LONG when you have trouble putting on and removing your contact lens. Time to remove my nail polish and cut my nails!!

P.P.S. Gonna head to town with my cousin tomorrow! Watching Twilight and eat and shop! Woots!

P.P.P.S. I'm having a massive headache right now. (It started as soon as I started typing this entry -.-)

P.P.P.P.S. Can someone please tell me what the hell is P.S.?! Yeah I don't know what it stands for but I'm still using it! TELL MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

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.

BOO.


quick update before i go to bed! first day of Semester 3 tomorrow! and i need to reach early to collect my notes.


there was a sale (quite a big one) for Maybelline's products yesterday! i'd only wanted the mascara (the most) and i needed the make-up remover because mine was running low. then the sale was: a free make-up remover + lip balm for every purchase that's over $35. so my initial plan was to get just the make-up remover (2 for $18.90) and the mascara ($19.90) because i spent quite a lot for this month already. and since they easily added up to >$35, i could get a free make-up remover & lipbalm! (omg so auntie right. but i need to save every penny that i can save!)

then my mother came along and said her concealer ($11.90) & BB cream ($16.90) was running low. so we added those into the basket and it became.. $67.60! but there was more than 20% discount for most of the items so it was less than that. but since it was near $70 and we could get free gifts x2 so why not make it to $70? hahaha. in the end i decided to get the concealer (since it was on big discount and mine was finishing) and eyeliner (had been looking at this item for awhile already) and we made it to $80+++ hahaha! so we got 2 free make-up removers and lipbalms. (auntie x2 LOL)

then i remembered that Ninet wanted the Angry Bird watch the other time. so i grabbed one 'cause it will be cheaper if it's bought with purchases over $15. and i thought of my P1 tutee. Children's Day is just round the corner! so i grabbed another watch. then i decided to play safe by calling Ninet to ask whether she still wants the watch because i know she spent a lot too. luckily i called 'cause she decided not to buy hahaha. so just one for my tutee! she LOVES Angry Bird.


okay! done with the update!

so like i mentioned, tomorrow is my 3rd Semester! promised myself to revise what i've learnt everyday so that it'll be easier for me when examinations come, and start on projects/assignments as soon as they're out so that i won't have to rush the last minute. promised myself to do this because i'll only be tutoring one student this semester so i have lots of free time! (more than you can imagine because i only have 3 hours of lesson everyday.) yeah.. make my life easier and more evenly paced.

(!@#$ hate people coming into my room when i'm blogging. it disturbs my string of thoughts ZZZ)

oh. i've added a tagboard! (although i feel that it is there to show that nobody visits my blog -.- but i kept feeling that this isn't a blog (especially a blogger one) if there is no tagboard hahaha.)

okay. goodnight!
