Maxfactor mascara; false lash effect



Remember this post? : http://memorabledays-x3.blogspot.com/2010/04/i-spend-more-money-on-food-than-make-up.html

As you can see in the picture I bought a mascara of Maxfactor; false lash effect waterproof mascara. There are many good reviews about this mascara :) and I bought it to try it out. It's around 16 euros(?) in the store, I bought it for 8 euros during the sale period xD. I have been using it for a while and I think it works ok. I'm allergic to some mascara's, I sometimes get weird red spots on my eyes.

Before I used this one of Maxfactor I have used mascara's of Maybelline before and it really sucked, I really was allergic to most of their products. I also used Clinique mascara's but it wasn't that good either. And uhmm.. A Chanel mascara, I wasn't allergic to those, but it didn't hold my curl of my lash. I heard that Lancome Hypnôse is very good, hesitating to buy that one!!

Anyways, I tested the Maxfactor mascara; false lash effect out... some pro's:
+ and it was holding my curl of my lashes
+ wasn't allergic to it
+ it didn't have a weird smell
+ natural look

BUT!
- it smudged on my oily eyes/face
- full lashes? NOT REALLY!
- that brush is way too huge o_o ! I mean, look at it! omg!
- it's called false lash effect, that effect didn't work on me

Rating: +++++ 3.5/5
I think that I would buy this mascara again, cuz it really was holding my curl of my lashes for the whole day :)

Dyed my hair


Before: picture. I took this picture last week.


As you can see, I have got roots, which is soooo ugly ! Therefore I really wanted to dye my hair. I took this picture with flash on, it´s so orange o.o omg! Hideous.
I bought Garnier Nutrisse creme #43- Gold brown. It is quite dark, but I was tired of the orange color in my hair. I don't recommend this product for people who has a light color in their hair. As I said my hair was light brown/ a bit orange. And after I used this product, my hair wasn't completely the same color as on the package.
Result: After
I took this picture at night, so its a bit darker than the other pictures. I do like the color :) its just normal.

Feeling like a monster o_o!

Good news; my teacher FINALLY approved the subject for my thesis, which means I can finally start with my thesis this month (woopie~) *sigh, I had waited for like 2 months for the approval. And I was scared that I couldn't graduate this semester. But ok, hope is coming back again. I'm going to start with my thesis from next week on, which means I won't have any social life anymore for these 2-3 months =(.

I hadn't been to the gym this week so I finally had some time to do some fitness. However, (omg, I feel so bad) I was a bit hungry after that so I went to have a dinner with a friend nearby the gym called; Grandcafé Blom. It has very good reviews, the food was nice and the service was just great. People were very nice there and everybody just seem to be happy :D ahh, I like to see that ^^! I feel like a monster, I'm eating so many things this week o_o" look at my posts, its all about food whauhaha, omg. I have to quit =p
Totally recommend this café/restaurant, I will definitely go back there again :)

Zebra print nail art

I hadn't done my nails for a while, so my sis did some "creative" nail art on my nails today :). The last time she did the leopard print, see link: http://memorabledays-x3.blogspot.com/2010/03/leopard-nails.html . And this time she tried the zebra print xD and she actually succeeded to do it. *claps*

However, it smudged a bit, while I was applying the top coat. Too bad, but the outcome is still nice :). She used the black and white nail polishes of the brand: Dear'Lee.

Hyori Lee - H.Logic


I can't even recognize her here... I'm not a big fan of Hyori Lee, but she does have a few good songs. I still remember her old song; 10 minutes. Lol it is the only song which I can remember at the moment xD. This album is the leaked version. Her official comeback album will be out on the 13th of April. My rate is a 1.5 out of 5, which is quite bad. There are a lot of fast/dance songs in this album and some songs have great beats, but her album as a whole is monotonous.

Tracklist:
01 I'm Back
02 Love Sign (feat. 상추 of 마이티마우스)
03 Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (feat. Ceejay of Freshboyz)
04 Feel The Same
05 Bring It Back (feat. 베카 of 애프터스쿨, 전지윤 of 포미닛)
06 Highlight (feat. Bizzy)
07 그네 (feat. 개리 of 리쌍)
08 Scandal
09 100 Percent
10 Want Me Back
11 How Did We Get (With 대성)
12 So Cold
13 Get 2 Know (feat. Double K)
14 Memory (feat. Bizzy)

GOSH Velvet Touch Foundation Primer



GOSH Velvet Touch Foundation Primer with Aloe Vera is a base before applying foundation. It fills in fine lines and deep pores in the skin and it creates a matt and soft surface. The formula is perfume free. It comes with a clear tube with a pump. You only need one pump for your whole face, so I think that you can use one tube for the whole year if you use it every day. It costs around 12.50 euros. It's a bit pricey, but I think its worth it.

Review
I have been using this product for almost three months. I think its a good product, even for my combination skin xD. I use it after moistering and it makes my foundation go on smoothly, evenly and my foundation will last longer. It also makes my skin feel soft after applying it. So I definitely recommend this product to everybody :).

Pros:
❤ Long lasting
❤ Smooth application
❤ Packaging is good

Cons:
❤ Slightly expensive

Rate: ❤❤❤❤❤ 4.5/5

By2

By2 is a duo from Singapore, these two girls are 18 years old. They have a new album called: grown up (成人禮), released in March 2010. A lot of songs in the album are .. how to say.. quite girlish/ childish... Their old album Twins is better than this one in my opinion. I really like one song of their newest album which is: Every time I look into your eyes. It is really a catchy song. There is also a Chinese version of this song called 這叫愛, but I prefer the English version.

Language: English
Song: Every time I look into your eyes

Clean & Clear Oil Control Sheets


I bought this while I was in Hong Kong and in China. Friends who I often see might have seen me using this. I have a combined skin type, which means that my T-zone is very oily. A very good product for people with an oily face is the Clean & Clear oil control sheet. It's very easy to use and it works. If you're out for the whole day, you might use it twice per day and it also depends on the weather. While I was in China I saw a lot of oil control sheets of different brands, but a lot were fake, so I truly recommend people to buy oil control sheets from Clean & Clear.

Pros:
- It won't smudge your make up
- Removes the shine of your face
- Instantly removes excess oil
- The sheets are soft

Cons:
- It's expensive for just a few sheets

The blue version doesn't have any fragrance on it, but there is also a pink version, which has the grapefruit fragrance. Unfortunately you can't buy this product in Holland anymore. The price is around: 2.50 euros each and there are 60 sheets in it. The pink version is a bit more expensive; around 3 euros per pack.

Message to boys: You probably only want to see the result. Scroll to 8:50. The first part will only disappoint you... xD
Message to girls: It's about how to turn into a pretty girl; 美女。 It looks kinda freaky how girls can look so different with some extra make up. I really had to laugh while watching this video. You might have watched it already on youtube, just wanted to share it xD.

All I can say after watching this video is; WASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEY :P
