BK Nail Polish & Gold and Silver Steel Balls for nail art

I recently received some products from Bornprettystore.com for review purposes. This time I'm going to review a matte BK nail polish and some gold & silver nail art steel balls. I wanted to have the gold & silver steel balls for a very long time. I've seen so many lovely nail art creations with these steel balls before. I just had to have it. I was directly "SOLD" after I saw a crown creation on Youtube (see golden crown picture below). It's so pretty ^o^~!

Review: Handmade False Eyelashes from Bornprettystore

Bornprettystore has become a well-known online store this year. They sell nail art products, eye lashes, lenses, accessories and many more. Their assortment is getting larger and larger and I'm always curious what they will add next. Bornprettystore.com offered me a pair of handmade false eyelashes for review purposes. I've always wanted to try handmade fake eyelashes, so I was so happy that I was able to try these out. The brand name of the eyelashes is: 台湾亮金金精品假睫毛 (纯手工制作 M-4). Just to make sure that you won't get confused: these are NOT Princess Lee eyelashes!

Review: SXUC Burly Tortoise Sunglasses

It is still summer but too bad it doesn't really feel like summer in The Netherlands. Thankfully there were a few sunny days here. Sunglasses are the perfect accessory for sunny days! Our eyes are precious so it's important to protect them from UV. Sunglassesshop.com has recently sent me a couple of sunglasses for review purposes. It's an online shop which sells a lot of sunglasses from well-known brands like Ray Ban, Prada, D&G, Oliver Peoples and more... The online shop offers a wider selection of sunglasses than local shops in The Netherlands. In this blogpost I'm going to review a pair of sunglasses of the brand SXUC.

Happy Mooncake Festival - 中秋節快乐!

Happy mooncake festival everybody ^o^! Have you'll been eating mooncakes lately? Many people love to eat the mooncakes with eggs in it, but I prefer the ones without egg xD. I wish I was in Asia right now to celebrate it. This is such a huge festival in Asia. Two years ago I celebrated it in Hangzhou with a few friends. It's always so beautiful and crowded during this festival. I even had the chance to light my own sky lantern back then ='D. My friend (Weiyi, which you see in the video) and I did need a bit help from local Chinese people to release it xD. Do you see all the lanterns in the sky? It's so pretty ^___^, watch the short video below:

Pump Dispenser for Nail Polish Remover

In this blogpost I would like to share this lovely beauty gadget with you girls. It's nothing new, but lots of people aren't using it yet. These are also sold at drugstores and at stores like Sephora and Zoya. However, these stores are selling it way too expensive then it is. Therefore it's better to buy these on Ebay. What am I talking about...? I'm talking about the useful pump dispensers. You can easily use this to store your nail polish remover or your face lotion. What's so great about pump dispensers? I will show it below ^___^ ..

Review: Rosette Hello Kitty Peeling Gel (Apple Gommage)

In this blogpost I'm going to review the Hello Kitty Peeling Gel of the brand Rosette. Rosette introduced a limited edition collection last year with a kiki & lala (Little twins stars, Sanrio characters) theme but also a Hello Kitty theme. Yes, it was last year when they introduced it into the market, but many stores are still selling them. Many people say that this product is the cheap version of the Cure Natural Aqua Gel and I can say in advance that it's not exactly the same.

This blogpost was saved in draft on Blogger for a long time but I just forgot to post it >.<" I know... stupid me... This is how the sample looks like:

Ebay.com is THE website where I buy my necklaces. Necklaces in The Netherlands are way overpriced!

Hada Labo Gokujyun Moisturizing Cream Review

I'm totally in love with the Hada Labo products! I'm sure that most of you have heard about this brand right? I've tried the Hada Labo Gokujyun Super Hyaluronic Acid (SHA) hydrating face lotion before and it's still one of my favorite products that I'm using. I purchased a bottle of that lotion the other day together with the Hada Labo Gokujyun Moisturizing Cream that I'm reviewing in this blogpost. I have a combination dry skin and I was searching for a good moisturizing cream for a long time. Have you used any Hada Labo products before?
