Confession

I am an ONLINE SHOPPER and I'm addicted!

Hautelook.com shouldn't have accepted me to be a member. lol. I'm buying things from left to right. Yesterday, I just ordered a whole bunch of Urban Decay products! I'm soooooo excited!

The other day, I ordered from model21lashes.com. I ordered 4 boxes and got another for free! Yay! They should be here any day now.

Miissha is having a BB Cream Sale right now! $8.99 for a FULL SIZE bottle. Only in shades 21 and 23 though. I ordered one yeasterday. BTW, there's a limit to how many you can actually buy since it's limited "quantity".

Go to www.misshausa.net

All this advertising for them, maybe I deserve something from these companies. ;P jk jk!

Oh me, oh my.

I've been super lazy lately with updating my blog. Sorry if I don't ever get to do some reviews on certain stuff. But I'll try to update soon! =)

Did anyone go Black Friday shopping?! I certainly did! I went to WalMart and got 3 barbies, 2 hand mixers, a griddle, 5 blue-ray DVDs, 2 games for my hubby, a digital camera (I returned it yesterday though), a Wii (also returned it), board games for my nieces and nephews, and a whole bunch of toys for them also. I wanted to go to Old Navy but the store was PACKED! It was crazy! I went to Target at 2AM but the line was already too long, so me and my husband went home. lol.


Why did I return the camera???

It was a Sony Cybershot DSC-T99. It was a touch screen camera and seemed pretty cool. BUT, the quality was just not up to my expectations. Yesterday, I did a ";look" and used the camera. The pixels were so..... out there and not soft, what so ever! Then, I tried taking a picture with the flash on. Great *sarcasm*, it just made me look like a ghost. The background was just black. I guess I'm better off using my husband's DSLR for now. I need a good point-and-shoot camera. Any recommendations?

Look out for future reviews.:

DUPE for TOO FACED Natural Eye Shadow Collection

I went shopping today at my local Gordmans and found a Natural eye palette that remind me of the Too Faced natural eye shadow collection. Instead of paying $35.00, you'll only spend 4.99 plus tax. Everything is almost identical! Even the names of the shadows!

 

WHAAAAT??? Same names!

Excuse my scars. Sorry! Bad lighting.

-----

I also went to T.J. Maxx and got StriVectin for only 29.99! What a deal! I saved so much instead of paying 59.99!

 

Look, its in Japanese

NEW!

Got my husband the Playstation Move Bundle.

Super cool and my hubby LOVES it. Recently, his old PS3 broke so I felt sorry and we went out to get him a new one on Sunday. =)

Aw, doesn't he look HAPPY?! Love you hunny! =)

Things I bought/used recently (Drug-store stuff)

The Almay Pure Blends lipgloss isn't the best. I don't really like how it "tastes". Too "oily".

Sally Hansen Lip Treatments are AWESOME. I love them. Super Moisturizing. Its pretty thick, so if you don't like thick lip glosses, its not for you.

I got the L'Oreal Color Riche lipstick in Mango Monarch 420. (Grayish tube). Color goes on nicely. Its "eh, ok".

The red tube is the Maybelline g100 Chestnut. I LOVE IT! Its on the nude side. I'm just in love with NUDES right now.

The Diamond Lip Treatment by Sally Hansen is pretty SHINY. I don't have much to say about it but its pretty nice overall. It has a brush instead of the spongy tips like normal lip glosses. I was surprised that the tip was STIFF. =) 

The Black tube is the Maybelline Great Wear Lip in 230 Flesh. Its a nude-y color. I love the color but I haven't used it much. 

The Beautiful tube is the Sally Hansen lip exfoliator+ moisturizer. I forgot the name but its pretty cool. On one side it is rough and good for exfoliating your lips and on the other side, it has a lip balm. Super cool and I LOVE the tube. It looks expensive. =) 

The dark lipgloss tube is the Smile Brightening Lip Treatment is in Brilliant 6631-50. It looks like a dark plumy lipgloss but it isn't as dark as I expected it to be (which is good!)

Gentle Pink , its not too gentle in this case. Its a TRUE pink but a very nice color. One of my favorite. 

Soft Mauve II, its a really nice color if you don't want too much color on your cheeks. Its almost a neutral-like pink.

True peach, its pinky-peach. Its ok. I don't use this one as much.

I love this foundation! Its a shade too dark but I don't mind because I like to mix mine with my Asian beauty cream. It makes me have FLAWLESS skin. =) 

This gets mixed in with my Revlon because its creamy and super LIGHT. I use it as a concealer. Its pretty much a B.B. cream.

The Colossal mascaras. I love them. Hold my curls and gives me volume. 

Bleh, this stuff makes me pale looking. 

Bought this,  haven't used it. I'm already using 5 other kind and I don't feel like opening a new one yet. =P

This is cheap stuff but good stuff. I love the colors. Very Fall-like. Its from L.A. Colors. Packaging suck but the product itself is pretty pigmented and good. =)

I love this bronzer. Its not shimmery and thats how I like it. =)

I finally got my mirror. I needed one of these badly. =) 12.99 at T.J. Maxx

Two weeks

Hello Bloggers! I'm back!

Finally, a day where I can actually work on my blog. Theres probably no one out there reading this but "its ok". =) 

Great news! My older sister is getting married. Oh wait, did I already mention that in my last blog? Oh well, but yes! She is getting married in May I believe, not August anymore. Its funny how she caught my bouquet and now she is getting married. LOL. I am her maid-of-honor. EEEKS, thats a lot of responsibilities but I understand what I have to do. I'm still debating on my dress though. Its going to be black but I don't know if I want a typical bridesmaid dress. I guess I'll do some tweaking if I buy one from the store. 

******

*Sighs* I'm kind of depressed about not being able to go to Fashion Week in New York. I think it would totally be fun! Darn, maybe sometimes in the future. 

Sorry, I haven't bought anything new to "review". But don't worry, I'm going shopping tomorrow! YAY!

The Banana Diet

I heard that it is a "trendy" diet in Japan. lol. Me and my lovely husband (who gained a couple pounds after our marriage) are "officially" on this DIET as of TODAY. haha. We went to the super market yesterday to go stock up on our bananas. I officially had my first banana as of NOW and starting on my second. Tell me what you guys think of this diet.

2-3 Bananas for breakfast with room temperature water.
Whatever I want to eat for lunch.
Whatever I want to eat for dinner.
I must eat something small but sweet before 3 P.M.

I like this short clip too. I mean, she wasn't big to begin with but I guess a lot of Asians are obsessed with being thin. ;P

Hm... I'm debating on taking a before and after picture. haha. Just a thought.

Update

Sad story behind this picture my emotional husband. ;P This was after our Hmong wedding was finally OVER with and someone was VERY emotional. =P

I guess he wasn't the only emotional one. ;P We all looked like a mess because everyone was crying their eyes out.

My husband holding onto my hand, telling me that he loves me soooooo MUCH. lol.

Me and my Hmong wedding maid of honor. I had a different maid of honor for my Christian ceremony.





I HAVE A CHATTING BOX ON THE SIDE IF YOU GUYS EVER CATCH ME ONLINE, FEEL FREE TO CHAT WITH ME. =)




Flashback to Highschool


I customized my own Prom dress back in High school. I bought a dress from a local Dillards back in Kansas City when I went back to visit my parents during Spring Break. It was 5 sizes too big but I made it work. I asked my sister-in-law to be my seamstress since she had the right kind of machine to fix the bottom of my dress. BTW, I bought the dress for only $30. Thats super cheap! It was a plain one-shoulder teal dress but I sewed on the Peacock feathers onto the one sleeve. I LOVED IT! Maybe I should sell it. =)

I looked like a DIVA. lol.

My Date Kia. I also had a guy date. =) Playa, jk.

Did I stand out? I think I did. =)

Trying to zoom in so that you can see the details.

Yes, my sister lived in ghetto apartments and I was living with her and my bro-in-law.

P.S.

I'm going to have my husband fix my page pretty soon to make it more attractive.

Coming soon! =)

Btw, I just created a LUUUX account! You guys should join. =) Add me!

YAY! Sooo HAPPY!
