Photo Diary - entry two.

Here's another short entry because I'm sick as hell and can't sleep. Hate how blogger app puts pictures in random order -_-!! Anyway this is a compilation of...
-two birthday cakes, because my two siblings are November babies! Mango mousse and white chocolate cake...yum!
-a lovely dinner cooked by my brother (yum chicken and roast beef...sure knows how to fatten me up lol)
-favourite nail polish of the month sandy nude brown =)
-empty classroom at 7am...sketched!
-a series of marvel and DC shirts which I've recycled over and over as my entire month's school attire...mixed with various toques. Will I ever get over this nerd phase?
-saying goodbye to Kobe, the fatty orange cat...will do more detailed post on him soon.
-nail stickers and nail art fimo arrived in the mail AT LAST.
-assorted tea packs which I brew with honey to soothe my sore throat
-assorted Liole stuff I bought to try out! There's dark eye circle cream, under
eye concealer, and a matte brown shadow. (Just realized I bought the eye cream without confirming it with my girlfriends...crap. Hope that wasn't my present! See what happens when I try to shop after my birthday Pearlie?!? Lol)

Ok I'm exhausted, I need to sleep or I'm going to die tomorrow =/ hate being sick and having to study. Can't wait till this is over damnit. Anyway I'll get back to normal soon. So long!

Novermber 2011 Luxebox = Super stuffed.

So as my title explains, I got my November Luxebox which is basically this monthly thing where they send me some random beauty samples and what not (soooo bad at explanations, see website for details).

I was SO overwhelmed that I just had to show it to you guys. I was sort of suspicious what was in it since it super heavy when I took it out of the shipping box. I thought it was some glass bottle thing. I saw the Teaopia coupon and thought "oh cool, we got tea samples." But it was in the cutest little tin box EVER! Ahhh so loving this month's stuff. Here it is:

So basically here's what's in it, sort of following the order in the picture...

Teaopia Cactus Fig kit
This came in the orange tin (it's just so ridiculously cute!) and the brown paper filters! I haven't tried it yet but it smells so good...felt very wintery to me =)

Moroccanoil Styling Cream
Wow this is awesome. I use Moroccanoil and various argan oil products after I started dying my hair more often and they REALLY HELP. This is going to be veeeery useful =D Only down side to this is that it smells just like every other Moroccanoil product, which lacks the sweet vanilla-ish scent of the other brands.

Benefit B. Right! Moisture Prep Toning Lotion
Never tried a Benefit product before, so this is interesting ;). Liking the ingredients list so far, and I do need a proper lotion...this came at the right time lol.
***oopsies, just went back and actually READ the description of this and it's actually a toner =P. How misleading is "toning lotion" though, right? Lol XD***

Lise Watier Plumpissimo Le Gloss
Colour is veeery sheer, quite nice. I'd describe it as a dusty pink with gold shimmer. I don't use lipgloss that often but I am pretty happy since this is the first time I got any lip stuff from Luxebox to try (about time? lol)

Olay Regenerist Wrinkle Solution Complex
A bonus perhaps? Wasn't listed in the card, so I dunno. But COOL! I need this...@.@

Paco Rabanne Black XS for Her and Black XS
These two fragrance keychains look so cute!  I think I'm going to end up using both...the men's one isn't very "masculine" like the men's cologne I've gotten a whiff of (ugh, never again). They are so nice...I like how the men's one looks like a lighter, you actually open it like one ;)

And that is my very lengthy thoughts on this month's Luxebox. I usually don't write reviews for these things because there are so many out there and I'm too lazy to do it...but this one was just too cool not to share haha.

Back to work for me~

Hello Kitty x Forever 21 = Cuteness Overload :)

I know I said that my next post was suppose to be the looooooong overdue part two of my haul from the MAC sale but that post is taking way too long to finish T-T and thus it shall be uploaded another day. (Sorry! -__-")

Just like what the title says, I'm going to talk about the new exclusive collaboration between Forever 21 and Sanrio for a limited edition Hello Kitty fashion collection. (FYI: I'm usually not crazy over Hello Kitty stuff, but some of the items in this collection are just too cute to not talk about xD).

This collection includes a wide variety of items ranging from cute accessories (like rings, scarves, umbrella, tote bag and pouches) to socks/tights and also cardigans, sweaters, logo tees and even a maxi dress! The limited edition Forever 21 for Hello Kitty collection will be available in stores and online starting on November 18th and their prices range from USD $3.80 to $30.

Enough rambling now, check out this adorable promotional video:

And here are some pictures from the collection:

I really like this pink top and the cardigan covered in pink bows...they're soo cuteee! :)

Ahh...cute cute cute!

OMG...the scarf! :D

Library Challenge for October

I am late!! But it's a really good book, I promise =). Here it is:

Tokyo on Foot
by: Florent Chavouet

Long story short, Pearlie actually bought this book first and I ordered it from amazon for her (free shipping with my textbooks!). I flipped through it and thought it was really cool, so I got one myself =D.Since she has said nothing of it on the blog, I decided to make it part of the library challenge~

It's a veeery interesting book. Basically it's the life of Tokyo through the art of a French guy who lived there for six months. A lot of times he pokes fun at some of the people, and it's quite amusing =).

Kazuya Kamenashi! This made me laugh so hard.

And now for unrelated stuff.

Creamy brown shade + mint green covered in gold crackle. Turned out pretty cool =D

Got this Chloe sample in October Luxebox. LOVE THIS SCENT.

Anyway, that's all!
