Happy New Year! 2013!

I welcome the new year with open arms and a bright smile! May this year be full of laughter and precious memories.

Helloo my blogger readers, happy new year to you all! I hope you celebrated well!

For my years day, me and the family opened up a bottle of sparkling wine, sadly the taste didn't appeal to us but it was worthwhile! I was slightly disappointed with the London new year ceremony this year. It didn't seem to have much going on but at least it brought everyone together. =)

To start off the New Year, I will be doing a battle of the lipbalms because it only seems to be getting colder now where I am =(

Let's introduce the contestants!

Contestant #1 - Blistex's intense moisturiser (Purchased at Superdrug)

Contestant #2 - EOS Sweet Mint Lipbalm (purchased in Colormix)

Contestant #3 - Deary's Q10 lipbalm (purchased in Watsons)

#1 - This lipbalm had been a personal favourite for many years as it provides sufficient moisture and gives a fabulous fresh MIT feeling when applied! Sadly, once applied it leaves a white colour on your lips =( I normally use it before I sleep and when I awaken my lips feel soft and supple!

#2 - 'Woah, intense minty sensation' is what was running through my mind. I personally love minty flavours as it makes my lips feel so fresh and soothed! Provides sufficient moisture in the day time.

#3 - This one gives a lovely plumping effect in the lips and doesn't look overly glossy and fake (hehe) and it's really light. As for moisture it doesn't stay on for long and needs to be continually reapplied every few hours but for the few hours that it is left on it hydrates well. It has a slight scent if rose in it but hardly noticeable.

But overall, I think the ones to definitely try out is the Blistex and EOS lipbalms. #3 has been kicked out of the arena!

- Hope you enjoyed the post!

Liese Ash Brown Hair dye *Review*

Helllooooo~ Summer time means lighter hair! (I know, this post is late *sigh*)  So i'm here to tell/show you guys what the Liese Ash brown hair dye is like! - WOOHOO! Ok, above is my hair without dying. It's very dark brown.  and then.... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. TADAAAAAAAAAA It actually turned out lighter then I suspected!  I left the dye on for an hour and followed the rest of the instructions as per normal.  My hair felt so soft! As for the colour, I was very pleasantly surprised! The ash tone did turn out well (although it made my face look so tanned *hehe*) and the colour was nice and vibrant. Sadly, after a few washes the ash tone kind of washed out, so now I have a slight red-y tone, but I already new that this would happen. So below, I posted a few more pictures so you can get more of a jist of the colour ^^ Oh...

Garnier Nutrisse truly blonde hair dye Review

Hello! I'm back with another hair dye review by Garnier! I've wanted to go blonde for the longest time, but having Asian hair made this a lot more difficult. Previous people I have spoken to who have also tried to go blonde ended up ginger. Nevertheless, this did not scare me! I was determined! This was my previous colour So, 30 minutes after! Time to rinse! oops, blurry  Indoor lighting (with a terrible front camera) Alright, as you guys can see, it's not blonde bu more yellow. However, at the time I liked it - it was different.  Outdoor lighting  So, I ended up like a strawberry blonde?  In order for me to get to a blonder shade, I needed to bleach again but I quite liked my current colour, so I left it as it is.  My hair condition was surprisingly good after dying and a week or two after! But as you probably guess - the condition deteriorated, leaving my hair dry and brittle.  All is w...

Barcelona

This was the first trip i've ever gone with a group of friends; consisting of three people, excluding me. Two of which I had met through my University Halls and the other was my flatmates' friend from home. This experience was scary yet exciting. I would have never thought of going abroad with friends, as I have never felt that I would be very safe. However, I felt comfortable with my flatmates and hoping that I would be comfortable with the other friend too. The first day was not the best since I was quite badly ill from going out the night before we flew for a friends birthday. I remember waking up and feeling incredibly dizzy. I slept for a while, then ate some Pandol and slept again. I woke up refreshed! That Panadol was so strong! It probably had enhanced effects on me because I rarely take medicine when i'm unwell. The days consisted of walking, taking more photo's and walking again. We didn't really have a plan so we just improvised as the day came, which...
