Falsies? Not! Mascara tip!

Falsies? Not! Mascara tip!
Hello guys! I saw a post on Pinterest (is it?) that kind of caught my attention and I said to myself that I should really try it and here we go! Basically, all you'll be needing are these, and a lash curler or something. 


The trick said that if you put powder after mascara and put powder again, the fibers of the powder would build up and it would give you the look of a fuller eyelashes and stuff and I thought hey! It's such a simple trick so why not give it a try? 


It works! I mean, it does give a fuller looking lashes at some point and it even gives a kind of false lashes effect and yeah but I mean considering other things might change your opinion on it. It does fall out and would give you a black eye bad effect and I don't know if you want to go for that look. It also kind of feels gritty and it doesn't feel good at all. I mean it's after all a powder and at some point, it will fall off! And it's actually quite dangerous because that would actually fall straight to your eyes! Imagine the damage! So be very careful! Or maybe find a way to better apply the powder. I may have done it in a dangerous way.


 I think that with a much wetter formula of a mascara and if applied right away, it will make the trick better because the powder would have something to stick to and mix to and not just sit on the lashes so yeah. Anyway. I hope I was able to help you or some sort and see you again soon! All the best!

Dogs, Cakes, Halloween.

Dogs, Cakes, Halloween.
Hello guys! This is a post to show everyone and so I would have something to read on probably 5 years from now. Hashi's puppies! They're just so cute I can't even. I think they're about a month now. No idea how old they are exactly but anyways. They're somehow big now and healthy. That's all that matters you know.


The one on our left is my bebe BOOM (boy) and the one on our right  is my bebe JINGLE (girl) and yeah aren't they just the cutest of the cutest creatures? By the way I say that to any cute pets so don't be alarmed. The shape of their faces kind of looks different from each other because of their parents look quite different as well but they're both cute so whatevs. 


My picture with the bebes. I know they wouldn't be this cute for too long so yeah better take pictures before it's too late. Anyways. That's all for this post guys.

And by the way I did not do anything for Halloween so sorry for that. You know though sometimes I think my Halloween posts are just always at the top because I look ridiculous on my pictures. Anyways. I don't really care LOL. Happy Halloween! Better safe than sorry! :)

On other note, I want to show you guys these beautiful cakes that I was able to taste and yeah. Well actually, there's nothing special with the cakes but I just took pictures because they look good. 


This is called Jamocha from Goldilocks and I believe this is actually a relatively new cake from them and it was alright :) I mean, I'm not actually a fan of like Mocha cakes or the flavor in general but this one didn't make me not want it so yeah good job.


This cake is moist. So moist actually! It's a black forest from Red Ribbon and yeah it didn't disappoint me or whatever but I really liked it.

Japanese Drugstore Lippies

Japanese Drugstore Lippies

These are refills from the drugstore and for some reason, though I often buy these lipsticks as pasalubongs to my mom's friends (not my money), I haven't seen the actual packaging from these brands. And I actually don't care that much. I agree that these would be hard if you have like, millions of lipsticks and trying to determine which is which but if you're like me that actually doesn't have a lot, then I don't think it matters. 


I can't read what the color is on the left so you be the judge when I saw you the swatch of the actual color but on the left side, it's orange something. KANJI IS DIFFICULT.


I actually like the idea of refills because for several reasons, first of all, it's cheaper. That's actually all. LOL. I don't know but it's just more practical and yeah. I think most women in Japan finish their lipsticks so they could have like the original container and then put their new tube or something.


I have only used this from the two and I love it. It's not so opaque so it's perfect for me. I don't know if you can appreciate the shimmers but that too is awesome! :D I don't usually like shimmers because I can somehow feel it but this one is like just right and yeah. Perf! This lipstick is under the MOISTURE lipstick and I don't really know for sure because I put a moisturizer before applying but it goes on quite well when I swatched it but I don't know if that's actually just the same as when applying on the lips.


The shape of Chifure lipstick is actually quite interesting because instead of just having one side flat, two sides are flat. Meh. LOL. Really though. I think that's brilliant because if you're in a hurry, you wouldn't find the right side of the tube anymore or something. Just do it!


I really like the Cezanne one! But give the picture another look and you would see than the application of the Chifure is kind of thinner than that of Cezanne so I'm assuming that it would give more precision and yeah. Also, the Chifure is kin of true to its color and although shimmery, it's opaque. So I might be able to just top that with a more pinkish balm or lipgloss of some sort. Anyways, that's my opinion and yeah. Have a nice day y'all!
