Just so pretty.. Miss Korea



Honey Lee... she is SO PRETTY... i know that there are many speculations that she is not real.. meaning her face is not real and a lot of plastic surgery have been done... either way... i think whatever she did.. it looks GREAT..

I am not against plastic surgery... to me its real simple, you only live once. It is more of a personal decision type of thing to me, there are people seek other's approval and want to be "perfect"... but define perfect... there is no way you can be perfect (not even Daniel Henny or Hyori)... people will look at you from their perspective and judge you.. you cant please everyone..




I love love LOVE her make up.. from this picture and the picture from Miss Universe... they tend to emphasize a lot on her eyes... of course its very importantant..whether she is real.. no doubt the girl will have a bright future in Korea.. im sure she is the "standard" of what men would want their dream girl to be...

What do you think?

Sigma Brushes Review

Just FYI guys, I am using my iphone for all these pictures....so I know its not top notch quality...i do have a camera that i can use...but since im doing most of the posts from my office...i dont have my camera with me! =)...

I've recently made another purchase from Sigma Makeup...because I think its one of those things that you know its good and you definitely need another set for backup. I first only purchased their face brushes and didn't try their eyebrushes because i do have many many eyeshadow brushes so i decided to skip it... now they have a new kit where they mix some of their popular brushes... both eye and face together... of course.. i had to get it...

it came in a very pretty satin bag like this... with their information packet and also a elf eyeshadow as a gift...



now, lets talk about the quality of these brushes... one word sums it up... amazing... these brushes are very soft... my favorite one is probably the ss150... i already own one...i had to get another... i do also have the MAC 150 brush which is comparable with this brush... honestly to say, this one is actually better quality than the MAC 150 brush... it is $42 for one MAC 150 brush, but you can get the below brushes for $49 plus shipping... it is an AMAZING DEAL.. if you don't have the money to spend $42 on 1 brush.. but you want good quality brushes... i cannot stop recommending Sigma brushes...



left to right

1. SS182- This brush can be used to apply mineral foundation or it can be used for everyday use for your foundation on the go.

2. SS239- This is one of my favorite eyeshadow brushes... it is very soft and dense.. so it picks up the right amount of eyeshadow and easy to apply.

3. SS219- this brush is good for application of color crease, outer corner, upper and lower lashline.. and great for smudging your eyeliner.

4. SS187- this is the brush that i probably don't use often... but this is a stippling brush.. it is suppose to give you the "air brush" look.. im still learning!

5. SS150- my favorite brush out of all! you can use this for powder foundation, blush, highlighter to your face or body.. it is GREAT...

6. SS224- the tampered blending brush.. it is great for blending out your eyeshadow to make sure there are no harsh lines...


SO.. what do you think? you are pretty much good to go with this whole set of brushes.. i cannot stop recommending these brushes...check out their site for more details at

Haul... eyelashes... clothe...

I love lashes, maybe because I have very short and thin chinese lashes... I've used  different lahses from Ardell to Revlon but my favorite once gotta be Darkness eyelashes.  They are great!  I think it's because they fit my eyes more than Ardell or Revlon and they are very inexpensive!  I got them from Lunabeauty.com, for day time I use the WXOS, they are very natural and nothing dramatic, so it looks like your real lashes.... i've stocked up on a lot of these =)... the other two Kma9 and Kma7 are more for going out at night when you want a little bit of dramatic look... its still very natural....



There was a coupon for Saks 5th ave for 40% off of any item... of course i had to take advantage of it!!! I bought a pair of Rock and Republic jeans... woot woot!  I love jeans.. now i have to get them tailored... i wonder why they always make it so long?



I am still trying to get used to this blog thing.. im not a blogger... but I do read a lot of different blogs every single day! One event that I am just waiting and waiting for is the MAC 25% Off Sale...ahhhhhh... what to buy!!!

Super Quick Review

Okay,  I know I've just posted something... but I thought I wanted to do a quick review on one of my recent purchase at Sephora.  I don't have my camera right now so I can't take a picture of the actual product, but this is good enough for now.

Laura Mercier Illuminating Powder

I went to Sephora with one of my girl friend to pick out some makeup for her, while the lady at Sephora was putting on makeup for her, another lady decided to try out products on me and one of those was this powder.  I LOVED IT.  I would recommend this powder for any fair skin colored girls, I am Chinese, very light one...it wasn't so bronzy that it made it look unnatural, instead, it brought out my face features, I have a very round face!  I had cheekbones! it is amazing!

Rating: 5/5

...What am I about?

Okay... the whole point of this blog for me is to share some of my own opinions, whether its about life or makeup or gossip around the world... whatever it is.. I just hope that you guys enjoy it....=)

A little about me:

- I am 23 years old and graduated from University of Houston last May with a degree in Finance and a degree in Marketing
- I am currently working at a financial firm that I've been at since I was a Junior in college, I love my job.
- My part time passion is Makeup, it's only been a year or less that I've been crazy about makeup, but trust me, it's something I will be doing for a while and maybe something I would want to do professionally as a part time gig.
- Fashion, oh god, I shop too much.  I can't say I got the best taste or style in the world.  But I do enjoy good fashion.





I know there is really not much for you to see or read, but I promise promise I will be posting things soon!
