Current Fav Youtube Channel :

Im addicted to the BeautyQQ channel.

I love her ! The problem is she only speaks

Cantonese in her vids and doesnt always

have english annotations. Her acne vid

does have a lot of eng though which is great.

But, somehow I still love watching her videos

even without the subititles.

She uses like a million products

and recommends laser treatments & boy

does her skin thank her. It just inspires me

to do more masks and take better care of myself.

My next holiday Im going to get either

a laser treatment or chemical peel

done on my face so I can finally kiss these

darn scars goodbye.

Alsooo - check out my Favorites listed on

my Channel. I add to them often.

You will see some fun stuff there such as

adorable decos, recipes, skin care and other

useful & fun stuff to pass the time.

Dolly Wink Nail Polish

If you are into asian stuff then you probably

know about Dolly Wink lashes. For

those that dont know they are perfectly

packaged pricey lashes for girls dying to

look more big eyed, cute or gyaru-ish.

They have lashes for top and bottom as well

as eye liner and other things.

I totally love the packaging. They couldnt

have marketed it better. Esp since that

dolly look is so in right now.

Now, they have come along with

some nail polishes & wanna get some

so much !! Even tho I dont need em...

The colors look like nothing super special

But, when I saw a pic of the colors on...

I just fell in love with the fresh brightness

the pastel colors have.

You can buy them on ebay.com !

You can find the lashes by the way at sasa.com

as well as ebay and tons of other places.

Im curious to see what the formula of

these are like.Do they take forever to dry..etc.

Love the colors,love the packaging &

Asian Beauty Products

I have heard lots of people mention imomoko.com,
yesstyle.com & sasa.com
which have all the popular asian skin care products.
But never bought anything from them.
I always found it annoying that everything was so overpriced compared
to if you get it straight from Japan, Korea China etc.
But, I guess they have to make a profit.
Finally I gave in & bought some random items that I have been
wanting for a while. I got them from sasa.com
I spent a total of 90 $ including shipping but that was for
27 items. Not Bad !

I will share a few things I ordered:


1. The Face Shop
BLACK HEAD EX Nose Clay Mask
Picture a Biore Pore strip except you put it wherever you want.
Its a clay mask consistency at first but then you peel it off.
Peeling from the bottom upwards,the gunk is supposed to come out also.
Catalina from youtube has a review on it :
http://www.cl2425.com/2010/01/early-end-review.html
Also got similar products by Shills, Pinkey, Naris Up -- all blackhead
masks that peel off. Cant wait to try them ~ !


2. Kai Mascara Guard

I saw BeautyQQ on youtube post something about a similar product
So, I really wanted to try it. Kai has lots of interesting beauty gadgets.
This is supposed to shield your lids from any slips of your hand
while applying mascara. I think it also helps to de-clump and apply the
mascara better ? Not sure.
I also got the false lash applicator from Sasa.



3. Dariya Hair Magic Sheet

The famous clip-less Hair pusher-backers.
I got them in pink & black. (2 in a pack)
The lovely stylesuzi on youtube as well as lots of other
makeup gurus use them.

4. Mandom Corp
Green Tea Facial Wash

xxpinkxx on her blog http://xppinkxx.blogspot.com/search/label/THE%20SHIT
recommended the 'Mandom Charcoal Facial Wash'
But I couldnt find it on sasa. I believe its on imomoko.com though.
I found this Green Tea one I decided to try it instead.
I bought about 5 different blackhead extraction related charcoal products
on this order so I think Ill do just fine with the green tea face wash.
Eeek...Just tryin to get rid of these darn things & decided to try
as many blackhead masks I could find. Haha !



5. Kose - SOFTYMO Deep Cleansing Oil

I cant remember who recommended this but I know
oils of all sorts do a great job at removing makeup thoroughly.
Cleansing Oils are really popular right now.
So hopefully I wont be dissapointed !
Apparently this is very effective and non greasy.
Note* This is not meant to be used as a face wash.
You still have to follow this product with whatever
face wash you choose : )





Oh yeah & you guys know I also love to make my own beauty concoctions right ?
So I got a couple of empty spray bottles and pump bottles on sasa.
Im thinking of picking some aloe outside of my house and making a
pore serum from scratch ! Lord knows I need it : )

To make this semi nail related. They do have cute glitters and
a small selection of deco pieces on the site.
I chose this one to try :


They also have cuticle stuff, hand and feet lotion and some is even in clearance : )

Feet Feet Feet ~ ~

We are all wearing flip flops and sandles right now.

Its hot and I hate it ! Haha...

But, we gotta keep our feet looking good.

I have been noticing a lot of people

especially MEN walking around with horribly cracked heels and

unkept toessss !

Please help your guy friends girls : )

Now, the basic things you should do is :

1. Soak your feet once a week in Epsom Salt

or Johnsons Foot Soak in a basin of very warm

water.

2. Take a pumice foot board (preferably

the type you can wash and reuse and

keeps its rough grit)

Get in the habit of buffing away at your feet

at least once a week. Do it while you wait for

your deep conditioner to sink in or your

face masks. This helps you to remember.

Its much easier to do it regularly instead of

waiting for a build up of hard skin.

3. Purchase or make a foot cream.

Most of them out there are thick and get the job done.

You can get cheap ones like Sally Hansen or more

luxury ones like l'occitane.

Most of them that I have tried do a great job

at melting away any dryness you may

have had on your feet, leaving them looking

10 times better. I mostly use this one :

If you wanted to make your own I'd

suggest using Shea Butter as your main

ingredient. It works wonders ~!

4. When you use foot creams one option is

to buy special pedi socks to lock in all that moisture

while you sleep. If its summer time you dont

wanna be wearing thick gym socks so you might

want to try something like these from Body Shop:

5. I love to use my homemade cuticle butter because

the skin around my toe nails gets really dry.

This stuff instantly turns from a solid into a liquid and

sinks into my thirsty skin.

So remember - dont wait for your

feet to look horrible. Upkeep them

so that you wont have

cracked heels and dry

feet : )
