Hi dears,

How have you all been?? Sorry I have been missing for 2 weeks and when I got back in I realised it is my anniversary on WordPress so today I will be posting a bigger blog post.

Let’s do a motivational quote to start first:

I love this one! “It doesnt matter what others are doing. It matters what YOU are doing”. Many times we have cliques of friends that are doing something different everyday, whether they are drinking, clubbing or singing, ask yourself if that is what the future you would thank you for. Of cos on some days we have to relax ourselves with fun and joy but we have to remember our goals and what we dream to get.

Moving on, I have been going a bit crazy with the new craze for collaboration make up and skincare products and i have with me here a collaboration of Missha with Minions. Missha came up with line friends previously but sadly i only managed to grab their bb cushions and mascaras, this time i wasnt going to let the minions collaboration have a chance to slip past me.

So there you go, my minions collection consist of 3 facial cleanser, one is not featured here in Maylily, iris and cherry blossom. Lip crayon in Carl and Phi, 2 eye shadows and the BB Cushion. I will be slowly doing the reviews for each and every one of the items I have from this collaboration. First, we have the BB Cushion, i took the “Magic Cushion Cover” in Shade #23.

The puff is so awesomely cute!!! there is also another refill and another puff in the box itself. It is formulated with a SPF 50+/ PA+++ for good protection and I really need it as i always going around places. The puff has a very smooth and soft texture to it making application easy and natural.

There is as usual a sticker for hygiene purposes. When i removed the sticker, the formulation was already oozing out like it cannot wait to get out, unlike the W.lab blossom white cushion previously reviewed.

A then there is the lip crayon swatches. One is Phil and the other one is Carl. Carl is slightly a little more orange in tone as compared to Phil which is slightly towards the reddish pink tone.

I like the Phil tone quite a bit. They are very easy to apply on as the tip is pretty wide to apply on the lips. It is quite moisturizing as well doesnt dry up the lips that much.

You might be asking if it is long lasting. It is not very long lasting as compared to lip tints (since the name suggest, they are tints) but it is good for a period of time until u decide to eat something then the lip crayon would disappear slightly.

Besides the Lip Crayons, there are also the Cleansing foams. There are three different kinds of flavor: the cherry blossom, iris and maylily. They all belong to the flower range and they do actually smell very nice.

The characters on top also look really cute. This is one of the bottle and the description behind it, from the #despicable movie

Each bottle is sealed for freshness and once open please do finish as soon as possible. Please do not accept if the seal has been broken.

I tried the 3 facial foams and they all worked pretty well for me and helped to remove my makeup quite thoroughly. The only difference between the 3 of them was the smell. The 3 had different smell but personally I prefer the Cherry Blossom

This is me trying out the Iris facial cleansing foam. The hand on my left is before and the one on the right is after. There is no makeup in this case which i think my hand already looked cleaner. .

Next up would be the eye-shadow palettes from Missha x Minions. The left one is #1 and the right one is #2. #1 is a bit more of the brown tones while the #2 is a bit orange. I was thinking that i might not fit the orange tone as I am abit more tan and orange lipsticks look gross on me but I was quite surprised the orange palette looks not too bad.

 

#1 Eye shadow Palatte

After opening up, I really liked this range of colors as they are so neutral and you can wear them with anything. I swatched them and they turn out to be really light. The darker color is really nice but all four colors had a very shiny base to them. The last one was a complete shine! which could be used for the lower eyes. the third color from the top had the least shine to it and a little peach tone which would make a very good base color.

 

#2 Eye shadow Palette

This is the second eye shadow palette which I was quite taken aback by the orange tones. The last thing i wanted to do was to make myself look too yellowish because of my undertone and my skin colour. Nevertheless, I still decide to swatch the colors and they were so light on my skin there was practically nothing to see except the second color which stand out. The first one from the top is a peach undertone very good for the base. The third one is a orange based, more shiny than the other 2 in front and the last one is SHINY!

To hopefully not scare myself or other people while going out with an orange tone color, i decide to try it out. I would say it is not too bad for an orange tone, shiny but not too overpowering. Based color was first one followed by third one and the 2nd one was placed only at the corner of the eyes. The last one was placed at the bottom.

This color suits me quite well and I really like it.

 

 

Thank you all for reading!

Love and xoxo,

Ting Ting

Hello all my lovelies,

Today’s post would be a continuation of the Bomibox Subscription box. This is the November sub box that I am still struggling to keep up.

Before that, I would like to introduce a quote as usual. Sometimes our lives are filled with so much negativity that we become pessimistic as well. We can start by filling our mind with positives so that our life will start to change for the better. Whether it is being pessimistic about completing a task or thinking that you cannot do it. CHANGE YOUR MINDSET! and then you would start to see changes in your life. Try it.

---

November’s Bomibox is so strikingly beautiful. I opened the wrap to a bright hot pink box with yellow colored fonts. If you would like to check out the first bomibox and how to subscribe, please check out this link: Bomibox – September 2016 and the October Bomibox as well: Bomibox Subscription Box – October 2016

I am always excited to get the Bomibox because the items are basically awesome. Some I have tried before, which they are the basic of Korea cosmetics and some are the ones I have been wanting to try for very long.

The insert comes with a quote as well that writes “I live with passion and purpose”. Nicely written 🙂

On the flip side of the insert as usual is the products of this month and of them I have been dying to try the COSRX mask but have not been able to get my hands on it. So i am super grateful. The paper wrapping my goodies is a black and white paper that is so nice.

Below are the summary of the products in this month’s Bomibox:

• Innisfree No-Sebum Mineral Powder
• Son and Park Beauty water 60ml
• CosRX ultimate Moisturizing Honey Overnight Mask
• Benton Honest TT Mist
• Etude Etti Head Band

• Leaders Insolution Mellatox Mask
• Samples: CosRX

Below are the details and images of every product I received from Bomibox this month:

Innisfree No-Sebum Mineral Powder

Using a puff to apply the entire face after sunblock or whenever needed. This mineral powder contains natural Jeju minerals leaving the skin super soft and bright. Its unique formula restores balance of oil and moisture for an even skin tone

Son & Park Beauty Water (60ml)

I have the original bottle of this lovely beauty water which i have not started using but I really like that now i have a travel size one to bring overseas. This is not only a toner but also a cleanser. It keeps your skin hydrated while gently exfoliating and moisturizing your skin. It contains willow bark, papaya extract, lavender water, rose flower water and coconut.

CosRX Ultimate Moisturizing Honey Overnight Mask

I adore anything that is honey and always wanted to get this mask but I could not get my hands on it. Finally. Use this as your last step. With 65% Propolis and Royal Jelly, it cleans and provides intensive hydration leaving your skin dewy and bright

Benton Honest TT Mist

To be used as a moisture boost to destress and soothe exhausted skin. Made from 85% Tea Tree water and extracts, this refreshing mist has anti-inflammatory properties so that it would not dry out the skin.

Etude House Etti Head Band

I am currently using one head band as well that i find really good when you mask so that the hair does not get in the way. Another cute head band to add to my collection.

Etude Collagen Eye Patch

Use before applying moisturizer in the morning or evening to soothe puffy eyes and diminish fine lines. This eye patch contains 1% Collagen, Green Tea, Vitamin A&E to moisturize, tighten, improve elasticity and soothe tired eyes.

Innisfree It’s Real Squeeze Rose Mask

Using a natural ingredient, the rose mask is non-irritating to the skin and makes it moisturized, refreshed, smooth and radiant.

This mask is among the favorites with top Korean celebrities. It revitalizes a dull complexion and works to diminish pigmentation. Eventually, you would be getting a radiant and youthful glow.

2017

Tags

#goodbye2016, #hello2017, #targetsetting, Goals

As 2016 comes to a close, we all look forward to a brand new year with excitement. To some of us, it is just going to be another year from January to December, to some others it is another year to start all over again. I do really like this quote below: “Today is the first blank page of a 365 page book. Write a good one”

I really love changing my calendar to a new year, I also like to change my notebook to a new 365 page worth book. I love stationery so I would always adore changing my notebook, my diary along with the leather cover. But all these are just physically changing them. Next year is going to be a challenging year for me, not only because it is challenging, i would want to make it challenging too.

Not only will next year be the year that I would get married and have a house on my own (which means i will have to deal with the renovations and the headache of planning a wedding), it would also be a year of discovery of myself. This year, I learned about my passion in skincare products and beauty and my enthusiasm for subscription boxes. Next year will be a year of continuous improvement and discovery of myself. I hope to be able to set very firm goals and stick to them and I am looking forward to being able to contribute greater to the AB community and to discovering myself as well.

My main goals for 2017 would be:

1. To continuously improve myself in terms of beauty knowledge and skincare products
2. To update the blog more often with products that I have used before and places that I have tasted before
3. To travel at least 2 times next year to explore the world around us
4. To plan a successful wedding and honeymoon

What are your goals for 2017? Lets take a step forward and embark new challenges and to look back at 2016 with a smile.

Love and xoxo,

Ting Ting

A New Beginning

Tags

#hardwork, #inspirational, #jackma, #makeanewbeginning, #noregret, #worktowardsfuture, Goals

Hi all future friends,

Thank you for dropping by to read my blog. I actually wrote this blog post 4 months after I actually started the blog because I felt I had to write something to start this whole blog but maybe I did not know how to do it before, so here is the blog post.

About me:

I work full time and I rarely have the time to sit down to do a blog post or even to have dinner with my family or friends. Working and working in the same company for a handful of years, I felt I needed something else. I still really loved my job nature and the company but I wasn’t getting what I wanted in my life. I am at the age of my life whereby I have the energy and I have the time to do what I think is right for me. This got me thinking about what I wanted for my future. What I wanted to achieve for myself.

My horoscope is Libra so naturally I love super cute stuff. I have lots of really cute pens, notebooks, bears, post-its, files and I am very tempted by very cute makeup. Therefore, I decided that if i were to own so many cute stuff. I could share my opinions with other people and at the same time to keep track of my own stuff. In that way even if I forgot if that cream was good I could always refer back to my blog post.

I started to get very interested in reading blogs and Instagram posts on makeup and skin care hoping that one day I could venture into it. Therefore, here I am starting really slow now just for the intention of first to keep track of my own makeup and skincare and sometimes even food. Then to second share with people on my own opinion of the products. I am still learning as we move along so please do be patient. Hopefully, my blog posts will improve as I go along.

Here is a favorite quote that I really like to share:

Never live with regrets. I used to regret not studying hard (who doesn’t), used to regret wasting my time watching videos, used to regret doing things that do not contribute to our knowledge. I watched an inspirational youtube video by Prince Ea and I am deeply inspired by his sense of “regret” – Everyone Dies but not everyone lives. Do not live with regret, do things that you have never done before even if it hurts, if you have the passion for it do it! If would want to travel the world, DO IT! Make a new starting so that you will have a better ending.

I was also very inspired by Jack Ma’s speech, “After work, is what determines your future! Spend one hour per day doing these 5 things and your life will change forever!” I am very much guilty of doing nothing or watching television after work. You must be wondering; we are already so tired what else can we do?? LOTS!! With this time you can become smarter, stronger and have a wider network of people.

As inspirational as the both might be, we have to think about what we actually want in our life and work hard, set realistic goals and work towards our dream. Please do not give up and to myself too!

Please do follow my blog if you wish to look out for skincare and makeup and the occasional food stuff. Thank you and looking forward to knowing you all through your blogs as well.

Love,

Ting Ting
