Nail Art

Pink Gradient and Swirls & Sparkles




i apoligise for the ugly sparkles, they were all i had. This design would have looked fine withou the glitter all together, tho if you like, u could replicate it, with more fine glitters that come in a more consistent small glitters.

Mac Smooth Merge Mineralize Skinfinish

From the Colour Craft Collection



I got the Smooth Verge Mineralizer, because i thought it was absolutely bEAUTIFUL! i got the trio instead of the single, because you get three shades, or you can swirl it to make one shade.

I love the colour in this, but i find it a bit too shimmery for my liking. The other Mineralize Skinfinishes that come in one shade, is less shimmmery. I guess because they do not have big chunks of..."glitter". With this product, I only apply a light layer to give my face a healthy glow. You can also apply it over any non-shimmer blush, to give it more of a "pop". I would recommend these to make up collectors, who would just like something nice from a limited collection, or someone who really loves shimmery Mineralized Makeup.

Brother's Grad





Today, my whole family + boyfriend went to my little brother, kevin's gr. 8 graduation. Ofcourse, being asian, we arrived late...well techniquically we were just in time to see him walk across the stage to get his dimploma and awards, so lets just say that we were on time. hahaha. The weather was soooooooooo HOT! thank god the school had air conditioning, else the whole auditorium is gonna smell is socks and old sweating men.

During the ceremony, i thought how funny it was when i was graduating from gr.8, and where i am now. They had the exact same routine. Award giving, meaningful but lame speeches, MCs that couldn't speak, video slide and band performance. Kevin plays a Clarinet?? ahhaaha. I guess i should give him props for being so brave. But perhapes he has another motive, considering all the clarinet players are girls. haha, what a pimp. Anywas, the whole time i was thinkin of what i wore for my grad. I thought it was the most prettiest thing back then, but now i could smash my head against a wall for pransing around in that. I guess that happens to all us girlies.

But overall, going to these ceremonies make u realize ...that one day.... you'll be attending your children's grad. hahaha. Then you'll be the one paying hundreds of dollars for a dress that would be woren only once. Sounds familar huh? Thought so. haha


P.S Yup*, he's a big boy now.."he looks like the CEO of MacDonalds"- Steven
