Paul & Joe Goodies

29 Feb

I’ve gone crazy about Paul & Joe Beaute recently since they’ve released their Spring 2012 cat collections~

I’m slowly collecting the items!

Paul & Joe Cat Collection Eyeshadow

I got it in Siamese Please since 1. my current brown eyeshadow is getting old, and 2.  I only really wear brown eyeshadows.. Sadly, this colour is now sold out on ASOS…

I’m gonna save it for Japan so I haven’t tried it out yet~ It smells really nice though!

Another item I got from Paul & Joe recently is their Eye Treatment Duo.

I’ve run out of my Clinique All About Eyes eye cream and this one is cheaper and you get two products – a gel for day and cream for night! Win!

It comes with a teeny spoon too! 

I’m saving this for Japan too but I had a sniff of the cream and it smells divine

I’m looking forward to using both items when the time comes~

Speaking of which!

I got my Certificate of Eligibility today! 

This means that now I can finally get my Visa and study in Japan!! 

やった!

Watch giveaway

21 Feb

I was cleaning my room when I found this watch! 

I bought this watch the first time I was in Sendai (September-October 2010) and it turned out to be a dud.  I had thrown away the receipt so I couldn’t return it.. I tried to get the batteries replaced but the repairman told me that the watch isn’t running because of the batteries but because the actual movement is broken.

It wasn’t an expensive watch, I bought it in a sale for around ¥700.

I kept it just in case I can repair it for cheap in Indonesia. However, I completely forgot about it and Phil gave me a watch last Christmas  so now I longer have the need for it~

So anyway I felt it is a waste to throw away a brand new watch so I decided to give it away to anyone who is interested. I will cover the shipping anywhere in the world.

May I remind you again that this watch does not work and will need to be repaired.

It is a very cute watch~ I bought it from a Mori girl style shop called The Emporium

Please leave your email in the the email box when you comment if you are interested! First come first serve~

The giveaway is now CLOSED!

I ordered a copy of Arabesque Zine after it was recommended to me by Rhiannon~

It’s such a pretty pretty zine~

Etude House Black Charcoal Chin Pack

6 Feb

I received a sheet of Black Charcoal Chin Pack by Etude House from Yi Lin for Christmas and decided to try them today since all these chin acne started popping up.

The back of the packaging says:

Formulated with black charcoal additive to remove oil and pore deep sebum. Patch tightening pores and contains Aloe Vera to improve chin complexion.

The product contains 0.1% charcoal powder as an active ingredient.

I had no idea what it is until I opened the packaging. 

The sheet itself looks and feels like one of those nose pore strips but just shaped to fit on your chin. It fits pretty well on my face except it does crease a little. It has a soft powdery smell.

After removing it I realised that it is just like a nose pore strip. It removed the sebum from under my bottom lip pretty well!  However, I don’t think that it is a good idea to use it when you have acne because it may irritate them (although it didn’t effect mine – luckily!).

I do like the product since I get quite a lot of excess sebum under my bottom lip (yuck! ) and this product had helped remove them~ I’d like to get more to see how it is in the long term!

Thanks Yi Lin!!

Post-holiday gets!

5 Feb

Finally some photos!

They’re a bit overexposed due to my camera problems…  but my room has horrible lighting anyway so it kinda cancels each other out…

I came back from Indonesia on Friday morning and of course did some shopping there (and in the other countries I visited!)
