Contact Lens + Deco Parts Seller + Scored 2 jobs!!

hey everyone!

from my last post about my contacts, i will link you girls to the Facebook store based in Australia where i purchased them from! it is called Hoshimi Lens run by 2 girls, Michelle and Catherine:)


in my opinion, it is easy for me since they are in Sydney! the girls also provide great deals from time to time :)
if you live outside of Sydney, they can do international postage, BUT if you live in Sydney, you can pay $3 for a face trade which i REALLY recommend!

Add and check out the girl's store!

remember when i mentioned i have deco-ed my mirror???
finally going to post pictures up of my work :)
it took me around 4-5hrs to complete! (the small 2mm pearls that border the mirror took me so long!)


since deco parts in Australia are rare and expensive, i purchased all my parts online from Yuki! :) this is her site please check it out!
she sells so many beautiful parts and accessories and also Japanese magazines!
Yuki's store: http://fullmoon07xxx.ocnk.net/


these are the some of the parts i have used on my mirror and bought from her! i have purchased 3 times from her, shipping is fast and the parts are in perfect condition! :)

here is a small step by step guide to how i deco-ed my mirror!

1. I bought this Hello Kitty mirror from San Francisco's Sanrio store years ago! XD you can tell since it's scratching away haha


2. Started off with painting the mirror with magic polish! this is great for easy peeling off if you want to change the deco parts! then i started decorating the border!


3. Started decorating! usually people add in the big parts first but i just started from the corner and worked my way up LOL


4. After finishing, i found the mirror lacking something...so i used light blue 2mm pearls and decorated the thin border! if you can see it hehe


proving it to you that it's actually mine :P i had so much superglue on my fingers!!

i look angry when i took this...it was because i was in a sad/angry mood lol

and yes! i am REALLY happy! i have scored 2 jobs in Retail! YAY :)
one is at a men's fashion store, Tarocash: http://www.tarocash.com.au/Home/724/n/3/0/0/
and the other is in women's fashion store, Supré: http://www.supre.com.au/Home.aspx?element=1&category=1

hehe both jobs are casual and im part of the team doing sales etc :)

that's all for now hehe
my next post should be sometime next week hopefully!

UPDATE: Make Up Purchases

hey everyone!

i want to thank each and every one of you for your supporting and kind comments of the rough patch i was experiencing...*heart*

(before i went clubbing lol)

sorry i have not been blogging! i am on holidays and i was not home for a week so i had no access to a computer, and these days i have been applying for jobs in Fashion Retail and have been going to interviews and hanging out with friends!

but of course i have taken pictures of what i have recently purchased!
i will do a separate post for the Accessories i have bought too :)

LET'S START!

1. I ordered GEO Nudy Golden Blue lens (CH-932) from a Facebook store based in Australia! it cost me only $20 AUD for the lens which is cheap :)


it also came with free lens case :) BUT the sad thing is, i only wore these ONCE when i went to clubbing a few weeks ago! and during the night one of the lens popped out of my eye (i dont know how/when because i was intoxicated) but it was so sad when i sobered up and found out one had gone :( i really like these lenses/style! i might re order them again or buy a different blue lens lol


i have a problem where sometimes the lens can pop out because of my eye size. it really annoys me when a lens may pop out when i blink :( i don't like putting back lens on once my make up is done.

2. Remember my past post where i bought these bargain lashes?


this is how Style 056 looks like on me:


(1st picture i am wearing GEO Nudy Golden Blue! 2nd picture are my Brown Barbie KING Size)

3. Remember when i told you i ordered 3 products from AVON? here they are :)


* Glimmersticks eye liner in Blackest Black: $4 AUD


i love this eyeliner! it is really smooth and it is also VERY black :)

* Ideal Shade Creme-to-Powder Foundation in Natural Beige: $12.50 AUD


this really does what it's name says! when you touch it, it feels creamy, almost like a mousse foundation, but once you apply it to the face, instead of a cream texture it feels like powder!
i really like the secret compartment in this product! i can also store my false eyelashes or other small things in there!

the downside of this product i don't like is the SMELL of the foundation! to me, it smells really strong and artificial (lol?) i can practically smell it off my face and i don't like it :(

* Ideal Shade Liquid Foundation in Natural Beige: $12.50 AUD


absolutely LOVE this foundation! i love liquid foundation :) this feels smooth and light and it smells great! it smells fresh and light, unlike the other foundation!

4. 0520 Eyelashes: $9 AUD


please don't be fooled by the packaging! this is obviously a rip off of the Japanese D.U.P Eyelashes packaging haha but i really liked the eyelashes so i bought it!
*GIRLS IN SYDNEY! I BOUGHT THIS FROM HOT DOLLAR! I FORGOT TO MENTION, BUT I ALSO BOUGHT THE 5 PAIR CHEAP EYELASHES FROM HOT DOLLAR TOO! :)*

this short *lazy* make up tutorial shows me wearing these eyelashes, i love them!


my whole face...lol i know i rarely take shots showing my full frontal face!


5. Korean brand pink blush: $8 AUD


i love this shade of pink! it is very cute and reminds me of a shade from CandyDoll :)


you can clearly see the blush properly in this photo :) lol my hair is like 2 different shades now from fading! XD

on the 28th July, i had my 1st Fashion Design presentation! i will post pictures of me modeling for my friend's presentation and i will also show you the dress i had made and got my friend to model :)
for my model who was going to wear my dress, i was experimenting with hairstyles to create for her that will suit my dress! i decided to make a bow shape inspired 'do! i was really proud of it :)


hehe me being comfortable at home with no make up and in home clothes :P


anyways i hope this was an interesting post!
please keep watch for the next few posts :)

have a fun week everyone!!
