Hello

Hello,

It's been a long time since I've posted anything, but I promise I can explain. You see, life threw more lemons at me than could handle. Just when I thought I was making a dent in the pile, life thought it would be fun to throw more at me.

Potato Croquettes

After surfing the web for some recipe ideas for potatoes, I came across this recipe for potato croquettes.

From Dressy to Casual

Even though I haven't worn anything velvet since the '90s,  I've come to like how velvet (especially dresses) are being dressed down with casual pieces. It still makes the wearer look pulled together, yet not look like she's trying too hard.

New Year Goals

Happy New Year everyone!  Hope you guys had a great New Years Eve, whether you were at a party, or in your pjs drinking champagne.

Chamomile & Cucumber Tea Skin Soother

Whenever I use a face mask or use an exfoliator, I like to make this tea to help calm and soothe my skin.

What happens when I can't sleep, and have the urge to shop.

My 'No Makeup' Makeup Routine

Since I talked about what I'd use for a 'no makeup, makeup' look in a previous post, I thought I'd talk about how I achieve it.

How I Control My Shopping Addiction

Though I can't say I'm a fan of exercising, I can say that I am a big fan of shopping. I could be walking for hours, but won't feel tired while looking for a new MLBB lipstick, or a LBB. The downside of this sport..pastime..addiction is, a thinner wallet. In order to keep my wallet happy, I've been doing a couple things to take the edge off my urge to go shopping.

Products For a 'No Makeup, Makeup' Look

Even though I love a good smoky eye or putting on a colorful lipstick, I tend to stick with a 'no makeup, makeup' look. It can be tricky to do, but the right products can help make easy to achieve.

Beauty Edit | August '16

My makeup routine for August was pretty simple, just like it was last month.

Comfy Chic

Even though I enjoy getting getting dressed up, I also love wearing comfy clothes.

Things I've Learned on Moving & Decorating

There's quite a few things I've learned after moving quite a few times, and some I've learned from other people. Here are some I've found to be the most useful.

Products For Quick Makeup Looks

Whether I'm in a rush or a bit lazy, these are a mix products I use/want to have in my makeup bag.

Beauty Edit : July '16

While I had more variety in my makeup bag for May and June, I had more a mainstreamed one for July.

"Window Shopping" At.... II : Beauty & Fashion

Since I haven't been sleeping very well for the past few days (thanks to having hay fever), I've resorted to "window shopping" on the internet again.

Happy National Lipstick Day

These are some of the lipsticks that I've been obsessed with this year. (So Far).

"Window Shopping" At.... - Fashion

Since its been awhile since I've posted anything fashion related, I thought I'd share a few things I've had my eyes on.

Y.N.M. : Becca Ombre Rouge Eye Palette

There's something about eyeshadow palettes that I can't help but have a weakness for. I've been intrigued with Becca Ombre Rouge Eye Palette for quite a while, but the price has been stopping me from getting it. Since it has been on my list for a long time,  I finally took the time to look for/compare swatches, and tutorials using these shadows before biting the bullet. 

Mango with Tapioca Pudding

Mangoes with sweet sticky rice is one of my favourite desserts (or snacks), but since I don't always have sticky rice, I thought I'd try using tapioca pearls instead.

YNM: CoverGirl Roses TruNaked Eyeshadow Palette

Since I don't have any rosey toned eyeshadows in my collection, I thought I'd try getting one from the drugstore.  There were quite a bit to choose from, and I almost purchased this palette from covergirl.
