Blog Hiatus

Sorry for the lack of posts recently, and now I have to declare my blog on hiatus for a few weeks. Not only is my school semester coming to an end, I am dealing with some health problems that I didn't know existed until this week. I need to take some time off from my blog to recover and put my best into studying. I will try to post maybe once in awhile, since I have a lot of content I wanted to post.

So everyone take care!

egg's Beauty '11 Spring: Petit Priced Cosmetics - プチプラ

Awhile ago I made another post relating to recession-friendly cosmetics for gals, and egg seems to continue on this trend with their newest Beauty catalog for Spring! Not only does it show you don't need brand name makeup to look this pretty, but that you don't have to spend too much on it as well! Romihi leads this article with rounding up all the other egg models and asking if they own any 100yen cosmetics, Maybelline or Canmake. After the article I'll post some other suggestions and other inexpensive Western brands that are picking up with gal models.

Vanquish Spring 2011 Catalog featuring Wei Son

Sorry for not posting in the last couple of days. I've been enjoying my easy days from school because I know that it's going to kick up like crazy soon as well :( I've been maticulously editing these photos the last few days (so much dust on my scanner T_T, fixed that AFTER I scanned these all) so I'd like you to enjoy these~ They feature PopSister model Wei Son modeling some coordinates featuring items from Vanquish's Spring line.

2 outfits and makeup shots from March

I was looking at some past pictures and noticed that I actually had some coordinate shots! It's amazing that I even have them since I usually forget to do so~

Review: Dueba Celeb Brown (Angel EX Brown)

I'm here with a review for Dueba's Celeb Brown that were purchased from Pinky Paradise. Keep in mind that I paid these with my own money.

New Products from Candy Doll, Melliesh and Eyemazing

The end of March was a busy month for Pop Sister models Tsubasa Masuwaka, Yui Kanno and Jun Komori. The three girls just released new face base makeup for their three cosmetic lines to the public on 3/25 with the items being released in the first week of April online. Here's some information on the newly released items!

April Fools!

Hello everyone, hope you are all doing well for the start of April! It is sweltering hot in Southern California, in the high 80's to 90's!! It'll be good for tanning but I think my arms are already different colors because my left arm is in the direct light of the sun when I drive :'( Oh well... I hope you guys heard good jokes/pranks for those that celebrate this "holiday" :P

I apologize for the lack of meaningful posts within the last month or so, but school has picked up and I've been spending most of my free time playing this game:

Okamiden, which is the sequel to the Capcom game Okami. I just beat it today so I am now free to be bored/figure out what to post on here :P If any of you are looking for a DS game to play I definitely recommend this. The characters are absolutely ADORABLE and the length of play is pretty good (I finished in approximately 27 hours total).

In addition to finishing Okamiden, I received my order from Pinky Paradise today! Remember to use the code dtan0914 for free animal cases and gifts with your items :D I can't do a review for them yet because I need them to soak in contact solution before I try them. I highly advise people to do that if you don't already, your eyes will thank you ;D

I got Dueba Celeb Brown and "Barbie" King Size Brown.

I put "Barbie" like that because the ones I received were actually made by G&G. But you know what, I was actually even more happy for that! If you look on the official Candy Magic store listing for the King Browns you'll see that...

The ones offered on Pinky Paradise are the EXACT same ones in Japan! So no worries about if they're replicas made by another manufacturer, these are the real deal. Highly recommended even more now :D

The winner of the 100 followers giveaway!

My giveaway officially ended within the hour, so I'm proud to announce who won. I'm very happy with the amount of people who participated and how many new followers I have gotten from the contest. So again, thank you so much :D

Unfortunately the original winner was disqualified for not following me/deleting their additional entry (against the rules), so I had to re-pick.
The winner is...

 Leah of ohhammerspace!!

I'm pretty sure you're glad that you entered near the end of the giveaway time, now knowing that you're the winner :D I will be contacting you shortly!

Seeing Selena Gomez in Costa Mesa, CA and a few products I've been loving recently~

So early Thursday morning of this week I went to South Coast Plaza's opening of their new Microsoft Store for one thing: Selena Gomez wristbands! If you were within the first 800 people in line you would get Premiere viewing (VIP) wristbands, which I was part of fortunately :) So on Saturday morning I dropped off my friend's wristband (she had to do some school stuff before coming) and I headed to the mall. I had woken up early (6am) and didn't have time to do my face at home, SO I DID IT IN MY CAR!! Including my lenses! Amazingly I did it and didn't look like a total mess, but putting on contacts in the car was probably the hardest thing for me lol

Long story short: I waited early and was within the first 50 people in line, so I was in the front row!

Review: Chocola co. No. 1 Parfait rich + nuts eyelash JU02

Hello everyone, sorry I've been MIA! I've been pretty busy the last week or so and have had tons of ups and downs. This post is way overdue, with some more that will be on the way as well.

I decided to do reviews for two brands of budget lashes in Japan: Chocola co. and nuts.
