Panasonic Heated Curlers, Dolly Wink and the most amazing Straighteners.

I don't really shop on ebay, nor browse on it often, however I have recently managed to create an account on there despite my reluctance. The reason why I did so was because I finally found a reasonably priced Panasonic Heated Eyelash curler which I have been eyeing for months!


I don't know why they don't sell it in the UK, even if they do, they are so ridiculously expensive!! The ones I found on ebay are from the US, and it was only $9.95 (£6.64) + shipping $9.46 (£6.61) which came to a total of $19.41 (£13.25). Personally I think they are pretty reasonable considering on Amazon, they're like £20 excluding shipping!

Some other stuff that I've been eyeing on

These products are mainly promoted by the gorgeous ex-Popteen model Tsubasa Masuwaka. 




The Dolly Wink line is produced by Tsubasa Masuwaka under the company Koji. It consists of a collection of false eyelashes and eyeliners which are all selling like hot cakes in Asia! 


I don't normally wear false lashes on a day-to-day basis, but I think some of these are mega cute and can come off as quite natural! 

Dollywink Liquid Eyeliner


This is the product I'm most keen to get. I've seen/heard a lot of great reviews for this liquid eyeliner so I'm intrigued to see whether it lives up to its expectation! 


Also in the line are brown/black pencil liners, eyelash fixer and a cute eyelash case! Although I'm not particularly interested in the eyelash case, they sure have won me over with their packaging! I'm a sucker for pretty things! xP 

Moving away from the Dolly Wink line, I have found the most amazing straighteners!
Tsuyagla Perfect which are wireless straighteners that comes in 3 different colours!! 


Straighteners that can be used outdoors as well as create the perfect curls/waves!? Su-goi! The Japanese sure does come up with the most amazing things! xP 
Since my pair of Remington straighteners snapped the other day.. it makes me want it more! T_T! haii

Check out the CF for these babies below! 


So I guess this concludes my wish-list! xD

Piano Cover: For Catharina - Younha

I am big fan of Younha! She is amazingly talented and I absolutely adore all her albums especially her songs in her recent one, 'Growing Season'. I particularly love listening to her ballads because she puts so much passion and emotion in her crystal-clear vocals that you can't help but get teary-eyed xP

Just to show my love for Younha.. I did a piano cover of her song 'For Catharina' from her album 'Someday'. =)) Enjoy!





If you're a fan of Younha, follow her on Twitter! =))

HAPPY DAYS.#

It was such a good week last week because ONE. I got my new car and TWO. Results Day.
First. I would like to show you my new car. muahahha! Say hellooo to my Peugeot 207!


This is currently my 2nd peugeot..The only reason why I've got a new car this fast in relation to my not-so old peugeot 206 is because we had a mega old banger which we wanted to trade in before the scrappage scheme expired. =)) My Aunt was actually using the old banger, so we decided to give her my old car and I have this one.  All I can say is.. Life is GOOD. (Y)

My friends decided to name him "Baloo" from the Jungle book just because.. hes big and grey. I've never in my life watched The Jungle Book.. but I shall go with that. xD

Moving on to my 2nd news.. Results Day. I was genuinely worried about results day because I didn't have a good feeling about the exams I took in Jan. I didn't even tell my mum it was results day incase I disappointed her. But OMG. did I have a heartattack. I got all As in 2 Maths and 3 Economics papers. I was seriously not expecting that! But BOY, am I glad thats over!! NO-RETAKES! thank-god.

I'm sorry for making this entry sound so braggy. I'm just... really HAPPY! Thats all! =))

Shimizu Shota: JOURNEY


Shimizu Shota, one of my favourite Japanese artists recently released his 2nd album Journey which I highly recommend. I'm glad he's becoming more active now!
Just a month ago he collaborated with Miliyah Kato again for the second time with Forever Love which is bascially a more upbeat version of Love Forever.

His album Journey generally contains a mellow and smooth, yet head-bopping mood. Its the sorta album that makes you smile and reminds you the coming of spring--its his silky voice that does it xP.
I don't know why I think this, but I think this album is probably best enjoyed while lying on grass under the sun as it has that carefree feel to it. xP I think I might try that when the weather gets a bit better here. haha.

Anyway, below is the song from his album. Enjoy! =))

March Update!

Its been a while since I've properly blogged! I've had millions of exams going for the past 2 months which explains why there has been such inactivity!

Anyways! 

My mother recently came back from her 1 month trip to Hong Kong and sent back 4 mahoosive parcels containing stuff she'd bought. I felt a bit guilty that one of the boxes mainly contained my stuff that I'd asked for. (*≧▽≦)
Obviously I couldn't let this opportunity go! xP  

Most of the stuff I asked for were cosmetics from Sasa--gotta love that place! ^^~



I apologise for the photo quality.. I had to take it with my phone as I gave my mother my camera and itouch (so she could use wi-fi-- had to live without those for a month T_T). 

So in the picture above.. 

Palty Gel Liner
2 x "My Beauty Diary" masks in Cool and Apple
Fairy Drops Mascara
2 KATE eyeshadow pallets
2 x Lip Ice lip balm in Orange and Apple
Some other lip balm in a posh case. xP 


Other than cosmetics.. I also asked for these mix-style headphones which are popularly worn by various Korean artists! xD Although I asked for a black one with a pink star.. my mum couldn't find one, so she opted for this one instead. oh wells! I'm not to fussed! 


Although it looks fashionably cool.. I'm not too impressed with the quality of the sound it produces. I can't really complain as they were only HK$54!! Bless my mother for not knowing they were fake ones! xD Oh wells!  

Korean celebrities wearing them:  

Younha <3

Sohee from Wonder Girls 


Kim Bum sporting a pink pair! xD 

I also asked for some Japanese magazines particularly Popteen (which is incredibly popular in Japan) FEB and MARCH editions  and Scawaii. I'm amazed at their fashion styles and make-up!! If I'd lived there.. I would never be able to stop shopping! O_o. 
and what amazes me even more is the fact all the girls look flawless and so Hime/Gyaru and I've not seen one single person with black hair...! xD 


That concludes this post of my recent haul from Hong Kong. =)) 


I don't really know what kinda stuff I should post nowadays since this blog doesn't really contain a specific theme... 
I installed this traffic feed onto here about a month ago, and it seems like about 90% of my visitors come from google search on my ulzzang posts! haiii! >_<;;  Need to work harder! xP
