It's New Year! Get NEW!

I have a habit of getting rid of old cosmetics every year end. So it's the time of the year and I have to do some housekeeping and get some new replacements! Exciting! So I will need to get some new make-up products. Let's shop together now! See what I have chosen:


Get on trend, get CC cream. I like its non-sticky texture.

Chanel CC Cream (Complete Correction) SPF 30 PA+++ contains active ingredients of natural origin and suitable for sensitive skin. It brings you complete correction and long-wear makeup with a lightweight, non-oily texture.


Don't forget to cover up. Well, no matter how good your skin is, there's always one or two or several annoying spots that you need to hide. And this is the magic wand you want to have!
Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage completely camouflages dark circles, minor imperfections, and discoloration. Secret Camouflage contains a unique two-shade system, one to match the skin's depth of color and one to match the skin's undertone, making it possible for every woman to custom-blend her own perfect shade. 

I am usually not a big hello kitty fan, but this is just too cute to miss! And it has nice colour shades which is quite a all-in-one eye shadow palette.


Waterproof is very important when it comes to mascara, it can make sure you won't have black tears when you laugh too hard or are too sad.

A luxurious mascara to help maximize length & volume of your lashes. Its generous formula enriched with ULTRA-BLACK pigments combined with an exclusive brush featuring anti-clogging brittles precisely tames lashes for an intense volume without clumping.

Of course face make-up is very important, but nails are not to be forgotten, a set of nicely done nails can tell a lot about the woman, her elegance, her sophistication...

OPI Disney Couture de Minnie Runway Minnies Collection creates in honor of Disney's beloved character, the Couture de Minnie line explores the fashion-forward side of Minnie Mouse, mixing pink, fuschia and red shades with textural elements.
  • A Definite Moust-Have 0.125oz / 3.75ml
  • Magazine Cover Mouse 0.125oz / 3.75ml
  • Chic From Ears to Tail 0.125oz / 3.75ml
  • Innie Minnie Mightie Bow 0.125oz / 3.75ml
 Oh wow! I just can't wait to try them all out for my new year's parties!

Great skin essential tricks for the holiday makeup

Are you ready for the Christmas and new year parties and celebrations coming very soon? I mean are your skin ready for the makeup? No matter how good your makeup techniques are, the basic is to have good skin condition for the look to shine, here are some basics to get your skin ready! You still have a week!

Moisturize your skin from inside out:
Omega-3 fatty acids have powerful antioxidants to help moisturize the skin and protect it from the damage of UV. Where can you get them from: almonds, walnuts, chia seeds, flax seeds, and olives (Or salmon is great source for it too!). Why not have an almond afternoon snack to boost your omega 3s?

Water water water! 
You've probably heard this so many times, but water is one of the most important nutrient for your body. Other than oxygen, your body needs water to survive. Nearly 70% of our body is water, so it's not just women who's made of water, but men also. You need to intake enough water per day, the suggested is 8 glasses a day (about 1.9 liters), although it varies per person, it's easy to remember. To get a more personalize amount needed, try this online water calculator: http://nutrition.about.com/library/blwatercalculator.htm.

 


Be a sleeping beauty:
Get 8 hours of sleep a day. Sleep is a time for the body to repair damage caused by stress, ultraviolet rays and other harmful exposures. The body cells produce more protein while sleeping. These protein molecules form the building blocks for cells which allow them to repair damages. Other than that, adequate sleep is also good for your general health, like keeping your heart healthy, reducing stress and inflammation, bolster your memory...etc. So do make sure you have enough sleep every night!

If you can do the above 3 items continuously, I am sure your skin will become radiant and healthy!

Now your skin is ready for a nice makeup:
