FOUNDATION ROUTINE

 i have a combination of dry skin and oily skin,
which is a pain because my skin likes to break out during different seasons,
the worst seasons for me are winter and early spring
because it tends to be dry and cold which makes the dryer parts EVEN MORE DRY.
and i break out more on my "dry" areas than my oily. 

*I decided to do it in my room because the natural light actually shows my flaws better than*
the bathroom lighting

soo... let's get started.


the acne has been easing off, but last month i had a huge breakout.
leaving me with countless acne scars from my forehead down my jaw and chin.
basically it's like a round frame around my face.
or basically like this, red indicates the area
SO HERE ARE THE PRODUCTS I USE

i got one thing to say: OH MY GOD I LOVE THESE LENSES SO F** MUCH
they are this gorgeous golden amber colour and it really makes my eyes POP.
okay not literally but STAND OUT.
it looks natural to a certain extent ughh
!我好喜歡這副美瞳!
just breath taking. and comfy. VERY comfy.


WITH & WITHOUT
 
INDOOR LIGHTING

 OUTDOOR LIGHTING

 FLASH

THESE DO ENLARGE! they are 14.5mm.
I love the design and pattern, it's very natural like.
the reddish inner part really contrasts the beautiful amber colour.
there's a nice solid dark brown ring that really brings out the "POP" i'm talking about.
I FIND THESE LENSES EXTREMELY COMFORTABLE.
no irritation or anything.
i just love and adore these lenses soooo much right now.

RATING OUT OF 5

CHIBI PANDA CUSTOM PRINT CLOTHING

CHIBI PANDA
a little about them, they are a vancouver based custom clothing online shop.
prices & details & designs can be found on their site!

!SO I GOT TWO THINGS FROM THEIR STORE!
first one would be a HONG KONG tshirt.

well you know how there's a hype about those VANCITY crewnecks.
screw that, i be wearing HONG KONG :D HA. HA.
the tshirt is great quality so you don't have to worry about thin or ripping shirt quality.
keep in mind the designs are placed by hand 
they do a great job keeping a lot of the design aligned.

second would be my bf's KEEP CALM AND LISTEN TO THE GAZETTE

I LOVE IT.(so does my bf)
 omg. i want one now...
the sweater is really soft and great.
*better than my grad sweater quality for sure, which i paid a bit more for*
you're seriously paying for what you get, no ripping off or w.e.
there was a defect on the O, but she was nice enough to fix it up!
NOW THAT'S GOOD SERVICE RIGHT THERE PEOPLE.

Happy Mother's Day [PLOG]

THE HEAT IS COMING.
I AM WEARING SHORTS AND I AM SWEATING D:

it was a lot quieter today actually... probably everyone has the same assumption
that everyone is eatting out.

DIY: How to make your curling iron into curling wand

Do you have a curling iron with that clamp?
don't you hate that awkward crease/bend it makes in your hair?
and do NOT want to spend any money on getting a new one?
well here's a very simple tutorial for you!

CAUTION: WEAR EYE PROTECTION


Step One: Taking your curing iron, take off the "resting" bar on the hinge. you should be able to take the bar off by lifting one side (of the bar) off one of the hinges, if you don't have the strength, get someone to do it for you.

Step Two: Take off the little "knob"s on the hinge. If it doesn't come off easily, use a screw driver or a flat thin object to pry it off.
Step Three: Take off the clamp, then you can finally reach the spring. using the right screwdriver or w.e, unscrew and remove the spring. YOU CAN CHOOSE TO LEAVE THE SCREW PART IN OR NOT.
*i left mine in because my screw wouldn't budge so i had to pry the spring out with pliers*



VOILA you have your curling wand without spending extra money!
Now have fun curling your hair :]

anywho i set out today this morning to run errands with my dad.
we ate at BINO FAMILY RESTAURANT on Kingsway.

usual dose of apple juice :]
dad's breakfast


yep then afterwards i went to go apply for work @ metro.
FML ;[
i should listen to my dad: study hard and be your own boss
hahahaha i would love that if i can make big money with that ;]
then met up with jim and hanged with him.


jim's double downers.
just the sight of it can clog your arteries LOL





the for the first time i actually went to the happy hour thing for starbucks.
should have gone elsewhere instead...
i got my grande green tea frapp... and man it tasted so weird.
-  - kinda sour ish? i threw it out and they gave me so little whip cream ;[
QQ


yeah so that's how my awkward placement of a pro d went.
