Love That!

Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Nail Polish Color: Rosey Riviter (180) & Top Coat (100) Approx. Price: $9.99 Each I was really excited about this product when I saw it at the store.  I love to get my nails done, whether it's getting it done professionally, or giving myself an at-home manicure. I've had my share of gel manicures, and I usually start out being really happy with it, until the color starts to chip.  Then my nails turn really ugly, and I can't stop myself from picking at it. Before I can get myself to the nail salon, most of the gel are already off, and my nails are super fragile :( When I saw this product on display at Walgreens, I decided to check it out.  It says, "No Light" or "Sans Lampe" all over the cap. It's a NO UV/LED gel nail polish that only requires the use of their miracle top coat.  It supposedly can last up to 14 days, and can be removed with your regular nail polish remover.  How can I walk a...

Milani Infinite Liquid Eye Liner (up to 24hr wear)  Approx. Price: $6 I love the Milani Infinite Liquid Eye Liner.  My eyelids tend to be a bit more oily, so most liners, including the ones that are waterproof will still smudge a little bit by the end of the day.  Trust me, I've tried so many different eye liners, from Revlon Colorstay Liquid Eye Pen to Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner, and even the best of them will still smudge a bit on my eyelids (I don't use eye primer). When I heard about the Milani eye liner, I decided to test it out for myself.  I have been using this product for three days now, and I will tell you that I love it!  Just like other liquid eye liner, the brush is a bit hard to control, but with a bit of practice it will get easier. What I love most about this eye liner is that it really doesn't budge after it dries on your eyelid. I can wear it from morning to late night, and it stays on and pretty much looks the same.  I...

Hi everyone! I'll be doing a series of blog posts called "Beauty Finds That Won't Break The Bank", which will basically feature products that I have recently discovered that are worth checking out for under $20!! Some of them you may have already discovered as well, but think of it as a reminder of all those wonderful products out there that you can buy without feeling overly guilty. <3

I've been a big fan of Korean beauty products for a very long time, probably since my college days and who knows how long ago that was. Ha! For the longest time, I couldn't find any stores online or locally that sold a wide selection of Korean beauty products.  Now, I see a lot of online Korean beauty stores that ships worldwide directly from Korea, but of course some of them do come with a hefty shipping price.  Here are three sites that I've looked into, and they all have some pretty nice selection of products and brands.  Do confirm the shipping cost for yourself before making any purchase, and feel free to share other reliable sites that you've purchased from :)  You can go directly to these sites by clicking on the links below: Cosmetic Love:   http://cosmetic-love.com/ (I think this one might be my favorite site. They have a pretty good brand selections, and sometimes they have good sale prices.  I think currently you can get up t...

In honor of National Lipstick Day, I would like to share with you some interesting facts that I've heard about lipstick... Women use up to 9 pounds of lipstick in their lifetime.  Statistically speaking, lipstick sales increase on gloomy days...I know I like to buy lipstick when I'm feeling down. Lipstick is the most commonly shoplifted item. Women surveyed in a poll showed that 40% of women owned more than 20 lipstick at any given time...I'm not quite there yet 70% of men polled think red lipstick is sexy. 30% or more of our lipstick ends up in our stomach, especially if they are flavored shades due to lip licking and eating...eww, that's not good.

Hi everyone, just thought I'd share with you what I received from my first and second Rocksbox.  These are the jewelry pieces that were selected by a stylist at RocksBox based on the answers that I provided in my style profile.  I think they did a pretty good job selecting the items for me, but I do feel that the prices are a bit too high.  So with that said, I think I will be sending them back and will have to wait for the next set. For those of you that might be curious about the brands or items that Rocksbox send out, I hope you will find this helpful! RocksBox #1:  I forgot to write down the exact prices that were printed on the invoice for these pieces.  If  I remember them correctly, I think with the member-discount, the price was around $30-$50 for each item. RocksBox #2: Gorjana Tanner Shimmer Necklace in Rose Gold - $48 House of Harlow 1960 Sunburst Earrings In White - $28 CC Skye Mini Spike Gold Bracelet - $88

I've always been a bit obsessed with boxes.  I love to buy cute boxes and organize everything in them. Recently I've extended my obsession into beauty subscription boxes, jewelry subscription boxes, etc.  Ah, it's just endless, and somehow I manage to find myself being curious about all of them.   So today, I'll be extending my obsession to all of you.  I just found out about RocksBox which is a monthly jewelry subscription box, and they are doing a limited time promotion to let new subscribers try a month for FREE!!!  I think they currently only ship to the United States though. What's the catch you ask? Well, your monthly subscription entitles you to receive a Rocksbox filled with three pieces of jewelry, which you may wear for as long as your membership is active.  But if you fall in love with any of the pieces and want to keep it forever, you will have to buy the item(s) at a members-only 20% off retail discount price.  If you d...
