[Review] Holika Holika Heartful Glossy lipstick in Pink Bonbon

(Wearing this lipstick in these pictures)
Hiya! I figured since it's semester break i should be more active in my inactive blog... (=_=")
I am not a huge fan of Korea products but this lipstick caught my eye when i browse through a magazine... and it has been on my wishlist since that day ! I feel like collecting them all !
 ♪\(*^▽^*)/\(*^▽^*)/
Brand: Holika Holika
Series: Heartful glossy lipstick
Origin: Made in Korea
Code: PK123 (Pink Bonbon)
Weight: 18g

Packaging: Adorable! the box have a combination of pink and blue strips reminds me of lolipop! (。◕‿◕。)
While the packaging of the lipstick itself looks quite simple. There's still strips~ And the material makes it light weight plus it's small in size so it's pretty travel friendly. 
Design: The design of the lipstick itself attracted a lot of people to buy it ! it's in heart shape ! So CUTE !!! (*^ -^*) Trust me, the heart shaped lipstick would not make it hard for you to apply this lipstick. 
The color looks scary at first #laughs. But this series is not as pigmented as Heartful Moisture lipstick series, so the color looks natural and not very pigmented
(right: sunlight ; left: indoor light)
Here's the prove ! it's not pigmented and looks very light. Recommended for beginners and people who love natural make up. If you want the colour to more visible, simply apply more than one time! (◡‿◡✿)
I wanted the orange one at first, but this one makes me look healthier, cause i look quite pale and white sometimes~ 
 
 Quality: The quality of the packaging is quite fragile. It's made out of tin-like material so it feels like it's going to break whenever you drop it on the floor. @_@
(Above: sunlight ; below: indoor light)
I seriously have no complaint for the quality of this product -besides the packaging that is....
It's not dehydrating, and it's the only lipstick i dared to apply without any lipcare products. #truestory
It lasts on my lips for quite a long time ! I wore this during my photoshoot for Yuuki Asuna. There was a whole lot of rain, sun, drinking and eating but it's still there ! (づ。◕‿‿◕。)づ It lasts incredibly long ! #loves
Price: Average for me. Usually, i would say this price range is expensive for me. I brought it without any promotion and from a retail store. BUT it is totally worth it ! So i have to say it's okay to use the normal retail price to buy this baby. I love it with all my heart !

So hope my review helps !

[Review] Maybeline Color Sensational Lipcolor in coral crush

ALOHA ! Here comes another review ~ bwahahahha !
Behold !!!
Brand: Maybeline New york
Series: ColorSensational Lipcolor
Origin: Made in U.S.A
Code: 515 (Coral Crush)
Weight: 4.2g (0.15oz)

Packaging: Nice, but not very attractive to me. It's plain ~ But the good thing is you can use stickers to decorate it ! \(^ω^\)

Design: Now this is what attracted me to buy this lipstick. The design of the colour is just irresistible ! ♥‿♥
Ultra pigmented! It's so suitable for people in Malaysia. Because we're living in a country that have summer 24/7. So this colour kinda reminds me a mixture of summer and spring so i have to buy it !
Also, some red colour makes you look old and out of fashion, but this coral-reddish colour makes me look so korean-like and unlike my usual lipstick, this makes me looked so energized ! ヾ(●⌒∇⌒●)ノ

(above: sunlight ; below: indoor light)
Quality: Sadly, it's quite dehydrating.... (• ε •) So you must put on lipcare before applying this lipstick. As it's more focus on the pigmentation rather than caring your lips. (`・ω・´)
The colour disappears after 2-3 hours. So remember to touch up ! (●´ω`●)
It have an awkward scent that kinda bothers me ~~ I dont know... i dont like it ~ I am more of a fan of strawberry scented lip products. (ღ˘◡˘ღ) 

Price: Cheap and affordable ! ♪\(*^▽^*)/\(*^▽^*)/
I got it from my college's flea market, there are a few cosmetics brand invited that day and Maybeline is one of them ! I am so lucky to brought it in half of retail price !
(I'm wearing the lipcolor in this picture)
So i guess that's it ! Hope my review helps !
tata ! \(^○^)人(^○^)/

First photoshoot of 2013

HI ! long time didnt update my blog. i just have my first photoshoot in year 2013.(^_^)
Character name: Yuuki Asuna
Series: Sword Art Online (ALO version)

 This is a solo photoshoot, first time ever that I went to outdoor for a photoshoot. It's quite an experience ~
After the first 15 minutes of the shoot, it started to get cloudy and rain is pouring. That is why there's only a few pictures that can be uploaded after the 3 hours shoot. But it's alright, better than nothing. I have had fun ! ^_^ 
Asuna is one of my favorite character, she is strong, adorable, mother-like, warm, lovable, loyal, a chef and beautiful. What can I say ? I felt in love with her after a few episodes of the series. At first i thought of cosplaying her in her armor version but it's like double the price of her ALO version... T^T so ... yeah ....

SO.. I guess that's it ! xD Hope to do more photoshoots !! TwT hehehehehe ~ (for some reason, my folks wont let me cosplay too much... OTL)
