I can't believe February had ended. Like I was just oh no Chinese new year soon. Visit relative and such. But it's practically over.
This month I shop a lot. Like duh. It is not a surprise really. More 红包 more money. But I shop for wallet, bag and a wristlet.
See, so cute it matches my bed sheet and blanket. |
Shu Uemura is great for those who are scared to use lash curler. When you tighten the curler, the side has a gap that prevent your eyes from getting pinch. It doesn't tug on your skin as it doesn't touch your skin. It is not scary to use curler anymore. Plus it is wider than Shiseido.
For the other one has the softest pad ever. It's the rubber pad that usually is black in color. It's so soft that you can keep clamping it over and over and you don't feel scare that your lashes will break. I love it so much, but only after I adjust it to my eyes and make sure it doesn't clamp the side of my eye or the inner corner.
Both curl the same. Hold the same. Manage to curl the ends too, even though it doesn't look like it capture all your lashes.
So both are great but it will be better if they combine. But I did switch it up, and it doesn't work. In fact both pad are actually the same or really really similar. For some reason the Shu Uemura just cut in deeper. More sturdy even though the curler itself is more flimsy(loose). I don't know if non make up user actually know what I'm talking about.
So I guess Shu Uemura is great for quick curling. While Shiseido is more for proper one as it is so much softer.
I got potpourri from Daiso, I just fell in love with the color.
It smells nice too especially when you drop scented oil in it.
I also got this expensive Japanese tissue holder. Or you can put your pad, the female one this time, and it's just so classy and traditional.
I've been carrying tissue in my bag all the time now. Yup, I'm a "girl" now, oh cept when I bring just my wallet out and I know there will be tissue where I'm going to dine at.
When the tissue is full and new it's so nice on its package. But when you kept taking out one by one and you left it in your bag, it mostly torn at the side or tissue decided to come out by itself. So I really need a tissue holder and it just look nice. Oh it's also from Daiso.
I guess it's expensive for a small piece I cloth. However if you get it outside in this kind of traditional Jap pattern type of cloth, it usually cost way much more. Like way more. So I'm happy with what I got.
Oh I did bought some lipstick. It was on sale. I kind of have cognitive dissonance on the color. I mean I do like it, but I think I could be better off with another shade.
I really do not like sales promotion. As a marketing student, I feel so stupid for falling for it every time. Then again, if I justify with my own reasoning, my wants, needs and desire will point to buy buy buy. Ok maybe the want and desire, need I definitely don't require anymore product.
And so for a good strategy to push sale Maybelline color tattoo at Guardian was 2 for $19.90. During the previous Maybelline whole of Singapore sale, it was $12.90 each. So you see, how can I resist? Especially since I wanted to try it forever. And I always can't decide between the two colors; bad to the bronze and tough as taupe. So buy 2 for how much is a really good excuse to purchase them. That's my reasoning and I'm sticking or it.
Ps. The charm was Nata present to me. It's so cute. It's a gnome but it shall be a dwarf.
