Get this if you are travelling overseas! < Dior Color Designer All-in-One Makeup Palette 2013 edition > ( 면세 디올 메이크업 팔레트 2013 에디션 )

My reviews on the products are very personal, and I, myself, am not affiliated with the company producing the products. I always do my best to keep my review very neutral, yet, friendly and more focused on results after using the products rather than ingredients or benefits advertised by the company.

I thought this would make an excellent gift for any occasion (or to treat for yourself!) if you are still deciding. This palette will still be available in the coming year 2014 too since

Android Gift Ideas! :D

My reviews on the products are very personal, and I, myself, am not affiliated with the companies producing the products.




With Christmas fast approaching I thought it would be a good idea to look at some gift ideas for Android lovers. All prices are in US dollars.

Phones

Nexus 5

The Nexus 5 is the new phone from Google and LG. It brings with it a fast CPU, brilliant screen, the newest version of Android and overall great performance for a great price.
Price outright: From $349 (16GB model)

My reviews on the products are very personal, and I, myself, am not affiliated with the company producing the products.

Although this enabled me to tell whether the product's description turns out to be fool- proof or not, for various personal skin needs/issues, I cannot guarantee that the products which worked on my skin will definitely work on yours.

I usually stock up my La Prairie products over holiday seasons.
As always, they presented some different limited editions this year! 
If you are into their Skin Caviar range, then you should definitely check their online website or go to the counter and have a look! 
Very great value for money!! ;)
I was very tempted to get the Platinum Rare gift set, where you basically get an eye cream for free!
HOWEVER...

This beauty kit is not supposed to take too much space in your clutch!
This kit will come in handy when you missed the train or bus by accident, and you do not want to take the risk of taking a cab by yourself!
Or your friend is staying over at your friend's place and have nothing to treat herself, then you could lend it to her.

So take these as extras on the top of whatever you carry on your night out :)

1. Fill both sides of your lens case with Enbryolisse Lait-Creme Concentre. You can use this nourising moisturiser as a cleanser and makeup base too! Generally, most of you will

**World of Warcraft (Yay!! +_+ lol)

The new expansion for WoW was announced and it's called "Warlords of Draenor". This expansion will take place in Draenor, which is the planet Outland used to be.

What we know about the story and how we manage to get to the past is that Garrosh, the overthrown Orcish Warchief that was defeated at the end of Mists of Pandaria escapes from his jail. He hooks up with 'a friend' that can 'bend time' and goes back to a time that would believe in his true Orcish ideal. He goes back in that time and meets up with all the heroes of the old world from the first war like Blackhand, Gul'dan, Durotan, Kilrogg, Ner'zhul, Kargath and (Grom) Hellscream.

I am subscribed to many magazines, and I thought that I should post this!
I know it is November, but trust me, I was meaning to do this last month...:(
I just got messed up with my posting schedule.. =_=
Duh, I am a human indeed :P.
Anyways, I also attached some helpful video makeup tutorials done by British makeup artists Lisa Eldridge and Charlotte Tilbury below.

Rydges Hotel at Sydney International Airport

The Astral Tower in Darling Harbour in Sydney!

My man and I stayed at the Rydges in a Queen bed double bedroom when my mother visited us.
Actually, we stayed there the last three times we went to Sydney. 
The hotel is located at the Sydney International airport (1-2min walk).
Indeed, the location is perfect. Very convenient!
And price-wise, it is surprisingly very reasonable.

Have a look at my previous post Spring / Summer Vacance Travel Kit! - Part 3: Make-up - if you want to know what I normally carry with me over holidays.



These are what I took with me in my carry-on bag makeup-wise! :)
I travel quite often, I am not sure about you but I always find it a little funny whenever I see people done up with loads of makeup after a long flight's tired puffy face! :O You probably find that our skin texture is not as smooth as normal, or looking dull... concealer does not seem to work enough to conceal dark circles from the plane! :/ This is the main reason why I kept my in-flight makeup kit minimalist, whilst I kept my in-flight skincare regime more committed :).  
Of course, you can take more or less than this!

This is the continuing post (part 2) of  On board > Overnight In-Flight Skincare -Part 1-,so if you have not read it yet, then make sure you check it! :)


I hope you all had some sleep in the plane! :)
Trust me, it is still better than no sleep at all! ;)
If you have not had any sleep at all :O, then no worries, I have got some tips for you :P.
In fact, you can even practice this routine as part of your after party/long night/stressed skin rescue. Well, whenever your skin needs some TLC!
You can absolutely repeat the same steps from the previous post, but I do not :P.
I just have fun with using different products if possible! >_<
And it is quite boring in the plane ( I cannot read either, it gives me a very bad headache! :( ), so this is another good way of killing time I guess! 

Basically, after the 8-9 hour-long flight, I used the same cleanser and toner (the same process! :P) from On board > Overnight In-Flight Skincare -Part 1-.
Then, I followed with these products! :)

Marc Jacobs's Final Louis Vuitton Show Spring/Summer 2014.....:(...:'(

This post reflects my own personal interpretation/styling on fashion. 
And I, myself, am not affiliated with any fashion companies.

If you have been reading my previous posts, 

you might have guessed how much I ADORE Marc Jacob's works! 

His ingenious ideas have always overwhelmed me in every collection. 

The beauty of his collections was he could literally inspire your soul as an artist.. 

music, settings, clothes..

everything blends all together and becomes a piece of art! 

Like a film! 

It is indescribable to explain how I feel once I found that he is no longer be a creative director at Louis Vuitton.... 

Personally, I was a fan of LV purely because of Marc Jacob's artistic touch on LV pieces.. 

But now...

For more details on why I packed these products with me, 
please check my previous post Spring / Summer Vacance Travel Kit! - Part 1: Skin Care-.
I have explained thoroughly how I normally pack my skincare products when I am away! :)
And I am quite sure that you will find answers to most of the questions that you might have, and if you still have further questions, then please do not hesitate to ask me :).

Also, have a look at Autumn / Winter Overnight Trip Travel Kit!

Well, I have made several posts before on skincare travel kit, 
so I contemplated if I should make another one. 
And then, I realised that I have not yet made a post on on-board skincare / makeup! >_<  
So here I am with my lovely Hello Kitty sandwich bag that I took with me in my hand luggage for my LONG flight! :)

By the way, this is only half of my In-flight skincare routine, ie. this post will deal with beauty regime before sleep in the flight! Part 2 (next post) will be about after sleep skincare regime before makeup!

Well, I know that I tend to be a little hesitant 
when I suggest complexion makeup products.

It is just part of my personality when I write a post on some particular product. 
I want it to be more universally suitable, closer to "WOW".

Honestly, at least to me, there has not been any "WOW" makeup products for complexion from from my ten categories that I always check;

I am not a very puffer jacket person, in general I prefer leather jackets.

However, I thought that I should introduce you to the MONCLER IRE puffer jacket 

that I got into early this year!

A very light, comfy, chic and versatile puffer jacket! :)

If you were wondering why I am not a massive fan of regular puffers,

In fact, my man and I wanted to stay at The Darling while my mother visited us, 

but it was fully booked. 

So we came to a decision, "Why not stay at The Astral Tower this time?"

I have taken some photos of the standard room with court yard view where my man and I were staying at The Darling in Sydney for a few nights. We loved the mattress and breakfast that we had. In fact, the amount that we get for our breakfast (room service) was heaps! :O And the price was very reasonable given the quality and amount of food I would say. They had Molton Brown products in the room, which seemed quite ironic as they have a La Prairie spa in the hotel...:/ WHAT?! We went to this hotel purely because of La Praire, and they treat me with Molton Brown?! :/ I got very upset, but Molton Brown products are lovely too, so I just had to take it! Argh! Hopefully this will give you a brief idea if you are planning to stay over at The Darling hotel :).

Autumn/Winter in Australia is not too bad compared to other places.
However, we still cannot ignore the fact that it is AUTUMN/WINTER!
i.e. our skin cannot let its guard down from dehydration and UV rays.
You might not have to worry about bacteria and other infections too much in A/W unlike in S/S.
However, you really need to focus on thorough gentle cleansing, mild exfoliation and deep cleansing (NOT harsh) to make a perfect base for your heavier/richer products that you normally tend to put on to prevent dehydration..
And if you are an outdoor person, make sure you put on as much sunscreen as you put on in Summer.
Many people think that it is okay just to rely on SPF from their make up products.
In fact, the amount of UV rays that you get in Winter is very similar to Summer.
So if you have a sensitive/dry skin, then do not skip your daily sunscreen!

Well, that is an enough intro for now, and let's have a look at my kit! :)

Pablo Picasso  < King of the Minotaurs >

If you have read my previous post Legenddary! Muubaa!, 

you know that I am a warmer season lover! 

>_< 

Not just that, I just love the ideas of adding/reflecting our characters in our fashion!

This is another reason why I prefer S/S rather than A/W.

At least for me, it is much more challenging to add a hint of character 

in A/W fashion than in S/S's.

The clothes, textures, colours..etc. that we have access to are very limited indeed.

Read about Review > LA MER Skincare Purchase Guide!

*****Sorry! I just realised that I have not posted this one in English version :S. So, I am posting this now, and hopefully this will help for your future decision on these skincare brands! :)



I feel that it is very easy to be deluded by all the ads and reviews on luxury skincare brands from magazines, YouTube, blogs..etc.
It is not like we can buy literally ALL OF THEM ..:(
Simultaneously, we get readily scared/paranoid of breakouts or the product's inefficiencies.
Very natural indeed since we paid FORTUNE for these products and therefore have very high expectations on the products that we buy.

Perhaps this explains why some of you asked me a few questions on those luxury skincare brands since my last post on La Prairie Skincare  Purchase Guide.

And I thought...

HMMMM
Why not compare some of the luxury skincare brands that I have been using?!

By the way, I am very well aware of the fact that there are more luxury brands on the market, but I am only dealing with the ones that are more widely known throughout the world.
I hope this post will help you with choosing the right brand/product for your skin.
Enjoy it!  :)

Claudiu Mardare   <Androgynous>

I don't know why, but I quite like an androgynous/boyish look especially during A/W season. Maybe because of the colours ( darker ) that I tend to wear? 

There is definitely something about an androgynous/boyish look! Obviously this look has

I promised to write a post on my summer holiday travel kit on my bikini post about a month ago. And here we are! :) (Apologies for delay! >_<)

If you have visited Australia before (or live in Australia), you would know how hot it is in summer. :(
Especially in Queensland, it gets very hot and humid at the same time.
Accordingly your skin gets very stressed from both the boiling hot weather and air conditioner.

There are all these dark sides behind a sexy hot summer. Bah. :(
Anywho, No Pain No Gain, we love summer, so let's now talk about what to pack for our holidays!
