New Flippyfloppies!: Havaianas

img_3933

Christian Louboutin once said that women should own three pairs of shoes – high heels, flats, and Havaianas.

So i bought my first pair of Slim Havaianas today from the newly opened store at Pavilion. I bought it because i needed to replace my current flipflops, not because Christian Louboutin said so okay hahaha.

But Havaianas seem to be the it flipflop. Though i have trouble pronouncing it, i’ve learnt to spell it. Aha!

It took me a few tries to find the right flipflop that fits me. It wasn’t because of the size, but it was because of the straps itself. One side would be fitting, the other would be loose. But fortunately i managed to find the perfect one. The Slim Havaianas cost RM 89.90.

I will be looking forward to prancing around with my new Havaianas :)

Lash Bar at Asian Avenue, Sunway Pyramid

img_3753

When i was bringing a Singaporean friend around for shopping at Sunway Pyramid yesterday, i discovered this shop in Asian Avenue called Lash Bar.

It’s been a long time since i last went shopping, so i was very excited to find a new shop at the place where i used to visit quite often. I got even more excited after i walked into the shop because of the things they had.

It was literally a lash bar!

They had rows and rows of false eyelashes. All kinds of imported lashes. They have lashes that comes in a box that contains 10 pairs, and pairs of lashes sold separately. The prices vary from RM 10 to 30 depending on which.

I bought this pair of lashes for RM 16 cause the whole store was on discount. The original price was RM 20. The shop is still rather new. It was opened a month ago or so.

So happy that i don’t have to make trips to Timesquare to get my lashes anymore. And i don’t have to go hunting for other places to buy them.

Besides false eyelashes, there were also some makeup palettes, brushes and cosmetic bags. One more thing i noticed is that there were also a couple of popular eyelash glue brands. It looked familiar cause i’ve seen a few makeup artists using them before.

I asked the lady who was working there (who i assume is the boss) regarding the makeup palettes she was selling and she told me that they’re from the same manufacturer as Coastal Scents.

Ah.. no wonder! The popular makeup palettes from Coastal Scents are not that hard to miss, you know.

Honestly, i never thought of getting a Coastal Scents palette even though they were so popular. Mainly because all the ones that i saw was the rainbow palette like this one.

But when i was at Lash Bar, i saw this really nice palette that contains all the greys and browns and some other colours. Colours that i would actually use. The palette costs RM 45.

Panda was very nice to buy it for me as an early Christmas gift. I was SO HAPPY!

It was quite an impulsive buy because i did not do any research before buying. Come to think of it, it’s quite scary too.

How would i know if it’s really from the same manufacturer as Coastal Scents? What if it’s made from some where else and the ingredients are somewhat hazardous?

Well i came home and searched the Coastal Scents website. According to the site, this palette is the 88 Warm Palette. And i found a couple of differences.

ONE. The description says that the casing is matte. The one i got is glossy.

TWO. The difference in the “clasp”.

Other than that, it looks exactly the same. The colours to which colour is shimmer and matte.

I’ve yet to test the quality of the eyeshadows though. I’m looking forward to bringing it on my trip to JB tomorrow and it better not fail me.

I suppose i’m not too scared because it’s just eyeshadow and it was quite a bargain. Plus i didn’t have to wait for it. Well we’ll see how it goes!

I Like Presents

Here comes the remaining presents that i got for my birthday. I’ve decided to share with you guys cause i figured some of you might be interested hehe.

Well there may not be many presents, but it doesn’t bother me at all because i love all of my presents. I feel comfortable with receiving few (but high quality) birthday presents :D

My sister got me a small wallet from Coach. I suppose it’ll be good for holding stuff like my IC, some money notes and coins when i’m making short trips out. Maybe like the pasar or something, haha.

A charm for my charm bracelet from Kel Li. Too bad i didn’t wear my charm bracelet to the surprise dinner, or else she could’ve done the honours of putting it on for me.

You know like how a groom puts a ring on a bride *ahem*

And the last present i got was from Jingi the lady friend. She sort of compiled a YSL goodie bag for me, it’s sooo awesome!

She got me those YSL Rouge Volupte lipsticks we were eyeing on. Not just one, but THREE! She also got me one of YSL’s star products called Touche Eclat, which is a highlighting pen. All of these came with a free body lotion and compact mirror.

I’ve already used one of the lipsticks and i love it. Both Jingi and i love it!

I’ll do a review on it once my nasty pimple is gone and my complexion is recovered, promise! This is something too good to not share.

Anyway, that’s all i have for my birthday this year. The dinners and presents, you’ve seen them all now :)

Left 4 Dead 2 Phase

Wow it’s been almost a full week since i last updated.

I’ve been really busy cause it’s the end of the semester and the finals are going on. I’ve been staying up really late and i can literally feel my body deteriorating.

Not to mention my complexion too. I’m in serious need of a facial extraction.

Anyways, good news is that i’m about done with my finals. I have one more paper to go next week and that last subject is the biggest bitch of all. I’m just saying from my point of view. Business Statistics is some serious shit.

I just completed my second last paper today, which was Microeconomics. When i was done with that paper, i took the privilege to reward myself with videos games, sleep, and more video games.

Left  4 Dead 2 on xbox, to be exact.

It’s super fun. Zombies and guns, it doesn’t get any better than that. I found a new liking for the sniper riffle and it’s rocking! Though my aiming is rather lousy but i think i move better with the sniper riffle.

You people should consider trying this game out. It’s a little tough to control on the xbox, but i reckon it’ll be easier on the computer. Oh and it’ll be more fun if you get to play it online.

I kinda like this map for some reasons. Maybe cause this map has a couple of random mini games to play with. And my favourite guy to use is Ellis, the one on the far right.

I hate Rochelle (far left) cause she’s bloody noisy and her screaming makes me wanna shoot her. She makes a good bot but some times, bots can fail big time.

We’ve been playing a lot of Survival mode recently. It’s really fun but it can get frustrating after a while. We can’t seem to hit pass the 6 minutes mark. I blame it on the lack of real players!

Check out this 4 minute video i found on YouTube, if you please. Amazing gameplay during Survival mode, it’s crazy.

WANTS!: My Pillow Pets

my-pillow-pets-panda-molly

Oh my, that’s the cuddliest panda i’ve ever seen. Spotted it on vat19.com and Comfy Panda doesn’t come cheap. USD 24.95 for a Pillow Pet is gonna cost quite a bit along with the shipping fees.

The Pillow Pet transforms from a soft toy to a pillow with just a simple velcro clasp. Not to mention it’s super soft, i can imagine myself hugging it already.

There are loads of other animals too over here. And check out vat19′s promo video for My Pillow Pets.
