♡ Makeup Day ♡ with Parkson's colleagues

A few weeks ago, I went out with my colleagues from Parkson... I don't know about them, but I surely had a great and fun time doing their makeup and hanging out with them!!
Also, they were actually my secret test subjects, I want to become a makeup artist! XD
Here are some before and after shots:

I have another colleague that I did her makeup too, unfortunately I didn't get a clear BEFORE picture, and her makeup (AFTER picture) was not clear in the picture (bad lighting). Sorry I couldn't include her in these reference pics!

But here are the picture of the four of us:


Also some not-to-miss shots:

We brought everything we had... Amateur makeup junk XD

I envy my colleague's eyeshadow palette >.<

Focus is on Parkson's plastic bag!

Let's go travelling!

The bunny girl!

The too-happy-to-care ribbon girl....

I have nothing to say here XD

That tired look on her face...

Epic photobomb!

To those who read Dragon Ball... TRANSFORM!!! (Becomes the one in the middle)

This pretty collage is made by my friend... That second picture was when I was picking out which ribbon is worth buying XD
Thanks to her, I get two ribbons! She got them for me ^^

It was an amazing outing.
Let's do it again, girls! (‐^▽^‐)

Cosmoderm Vitamin E 3000 I.U Cream Review

Vitamin E is really a great help for the skin. So is rosehip oil. Both known for their abilities to repair damaged skin and restore its lost youthfulness. Before using this cream, My skin was dry, and is always prone to flaking, even though it was quite oily. When I first started using this, the cream doesn't feel so good on my skin on the first application, but as I'm massaging the cream into my skin, it felt better and better. After I'm done applying the cream and massaging it in, I can say that this cream actually makes my skin more hydrated and it feels as if I've just worn a hydration mask. It is amazing, doesn't make the skin break out, makes my skin feel smooth and supple, and recent acne scars fade in a week. Also, it is a pretty good makeup base. My makeup stays longer while my skin still feels moisturized and protected. It's a great feeling (Trust me, I'm a makeup freak).
I recommend this cream to people with dry, scaly, flaky and dehydrated skin, sensitive skin, combination skin and normal skin. People with oily skin might not like the oiliness that builds up over time.

Starting from this review onwards, I'm going to give a 1 to 10 rating, a how-to guide, show pros and cons and its eligibility of repurchasing.


How to Use:
After removing makeup, thoroughly wash the face and apply toner. Then, smother a coin-sized cream all over face, and massage it in for 1 minute.

Pros:
  • Doesn't make the skin break out
  • Helps fade recent acne scars in a week
  • Great moisturizer for dry and dehydrated skin, so no more scaly skin!
  • After massaging face with the cream, skin looks and feels plump (with moisture)
  • Easy to use
  • Can use on other parts of the body too
  • Suitable for sensitive skin
  • No offensive smell
  • A surprisingly good makeup base
  • Hypo-allergenic
  • Not tested on animals
  • 100% plant-based ingredients 
Cons:
  • Quite oily, since it contains rosehip oil
  • Takes a very long time to diminish wrinkles and old scars
  • Has no noticeable effect on freckles

OVERALL RATING: 7 out of 10
REPURCHASING: MAYBE

Rice Milk Soap by K. Brothers Review

Sooo, today I will be sharing about this rice milk soap---


These are K. Brothers Rice Milk Soaps.These are herbal moisturizing soaps which are enriched with vitamin B. It claims to be able to lighten and even out skin tone, get rid of acne or pimples WITHOUT any side effects. You can use it all over your body and face, and is suited for all skin types. Sounds pretty good, no?

 I'm using the purple one, it's a rice milk+collagen soap. Why collagen? Well, my skin has actually changed from oily to dry, so wrinkles appear even more than just subtle. Maybe it's because of the change in hormones as I am entering my "adult phase"... Well anyway, this soap has a really pleasing smell of rice (duh), and really foamy! I use it twice a day, morning and night. On my first usage, my skin was tingly and it stings a little during & after using it. I have no idea why. Maybe because of the acidic (or alkaline) property of the soap? Well, it only stings on the first use. The next day, it was fine. but mind you, the soap is NOT tear-free, it stings like hell when it gets into my eyes (or nose!). So be careful... But it removes make-up better than normal make-up remover. Seriously.

Overall, after using this for a 3-4 days, I do notice some improvements on my skin. I notice the reduction of wrinkles around my nose area, and my skin became slightly whiter. And when I use it with Vitamin E cream, my skin just GLOWS. I love it.

Oh yes, Vitamin E is really a good food for the skin! I'll talk about that later in my next post. またね!

Fuyuki Kuroda, my new Japanese sim :3

This is my new sim, Fuyuki Kuroda! She is a traditional Japanese ninja-like person.. in the modern days. Well, she wears kimono for her everyday and formal wear, and hakama for her athletic outfit.  She inspires to be an international super spy (a ninja I guess? I really hope one day EA will make a Japanese EP...).

However I do not plan on uploading her yet, but maybe I will when I get to make another sim soon. So keep your fingers crossed!
