Maybelline Volum’ Express Hypercurl

Posted on By sweet surrender 4 Comments on Maybelline Volum’ Express Hypercurl

Hehehe… My first time blogging with my XPS 😛

My first time buying new mascara in less than 4 months, I usually only buy new one when the old one finishes or can no longer be used that would be around 1 year. What to do? Elianto’s failed me… It cannot be used anymore, clotted and drying up.


I saw this new one from Maybelline, Maybelline Volum’ Express Hypercurl, is it new? Hahaha… Consider new I guess… Bought it for RM27+ at Watson. It’s hypoallergenic and contact lens-safe.

Here’s the effect, I only used two coats without eyelash curler, just quick application without paying much attention to the details.

Left: No mascara.
Middle: First coat.
Right: Second coat which I didn’t intend to apply but due to my itchy hand, I decided to apply it again but the first coat had dried long ago *LOL* You should not let it dries in between coats 😛

See the effect? It claims that it can give 75 degree curled lashes with their patented Curl-Lock formula, 3X the volume, without clumps.

Here’s how to get it works:
Roll on this mascara in a zig-zag motion, from the roots to the tips. Apply a few coats till the desired effect is achieved.

I didn’t do that 😛 I just applied like usual, I’m quite satisfied with the effect. No smudge too. After removing the mascara, the curling effect is still there for 2 days. I’m sure if I had followed the instructions, the effect will be so much more obvious.

The brush is quite different from what I normally get from other mascaras that I had tried before. It’s curved, I found out from a TV show about beauty where they said that you must use the brush the “n” way instead if the “u” way. “n” way will curl your lashes, “u” way will not have much effect.

Basically that’s about it. This is my third mascara from Maybelline. My budget for mascara is below RM30, I never go for anything more than this hehehe… I know there are better ones out there that are more expensive but I still can’t seem to get myself to spend this much on mascara 😛

My First Nuffnang Cheque

Posted on By sweet surrender 7 Comments on My First Nuffnang Cheque


Finally… My frist Nuffnang cheque is here(few days back :p forgot to blog about it). I cashed out in February. It’s only RM63.33. Pathetic don’t you think? Many people I know withdrew so many times already but this is my first time after 1 year of joining.

Now I’m a Nuffnang Glitterati with my irenelaw.com but guess what?!??! I don’t see anything exclusive given to me, till now only assign one ad to me, overall total only RM2.61. That’s all. I know you will say that blog of mine doesn’t have much traffic but how to explain when people that have blog so much lower traffic than mine get to cash out so many times? I really have no idea how. Summore I’m a Glitterati. Advertorial? Hmm… I don’t see any for me unlike Advertlets.

I wonder how long more for me to cash out again *FAINT* Nuffnang just doesn’t work at all for me. I’m not sure whether I should remove it or not and replace it with Advertlets hmmm… If I remove it then it would mean RM2.61 in my account will not be able to be cashed out. Hmm… It’s one bowl of kolo mee… *LOL*

Happy Birthday Paul @ Oregano

Posted on By sweet surrender 8 Comments on Happy Birthday Paul @ Oregano

Today is Paul’s birthday, 25th birthday. Yesterday we had an early celebration, organised by his sister, Rose at Oregano. It’s not easy to trick him out without letting him know that we were going to have a surprise birthday celebration for him because he didn’t want to go out last night and Rose had to trick him by asking him to send My Privilege Book to me at Oregano *LOL*


Oregano… Ignore that pink “boy” that teleported here to join us 😛 Hahaha… Very nice effect right?

Let’s see what we had last night… I don’t have all the names and prices, just want to show your some of the food we had.

Some of the drinks…






FOOD!


The birthday boy with his presents and tiramisu. Guess how much this cake costed Rose? Hahaha…


The tiramisu, the birthday cake for the night. Quite nice but not recommended to eat too much *LOL*

I don’t have the group photo to share…

Lastly, Happy Buttday to you Paul! 25 years old with your 25 wrinkles hahaha…

Big Apple Tea Break

Posted on By sweet surrender 12 Comments on Big Apple Tea Break

I’m very stress, I’m very busy, I’m very piss! The thing is not hard but when you people come and interrupt the process halfway, we have to redo the whole thing from scratch! DAMN IT! Made up your mind, confirmed everything before asking for changes! SUCKS! You expect a 3-4 days job to be completed in 24 hours!?!? That’s insane!

At the end… I went too… Hahaha… Actually went there on Tuesday afternoon to meet M, can’t think of where to go and since haven’t been to Big Apple, it’s office hour summore, so decided to go there and buy some home at the same time. Thought that there won’t be many people but the queue was long! Queued up for more than 30 minutes for 12 donuts(6 to eat there, 6 to bring home).


While waiting… the open concept kitchen. See all the sauces? So colourful hahaha…


More of the kitchen view.


Donuts waiting to be eaten…


More… Here’s the box that fit the 6 donuts.


Left: This is for home, RM12 for 6 pcs.
Right: This is for eating on the spot, RM12 for 6 pcs. There were 6 of us, so each of us only pay RM2 for 6 donuts. You know how we ate? Hehehe… One donut splited into 6 😛 That’s how you enjoy and taste food with your friends ok??!? We didn’t wash our hands summore hahaha… Summore first time meet hahaha… It’s like sharing our germs *LOL* The six of us were M, Jimmy, Allen, Robin and Eric(not a blogger). We didn’t order any drink. Thought that the donut will be very sweet but it’s not, PinkCotton, you are right! Hahaha…

12 pcs per box is RM22, 2 boxes with 6 pcs each is RM24, each donut is RM2.30. There are 23 types:
Pink Panther, Duren Duren, Chocoring, Rolling Stone, Kiwi Blitz, Semi Glacier, Say Cheese, Go Nutz, Kimochi, Green Teaser, Chocoholic, Iceberg, Whitnut, Snowy, 101 Dalmation, Choreo, Spicy Flossy, Mango Tango, Glacier, Californian Almond, Moonraker, Chococinno and The Alien.

I’m so lazy to tell you which I had tried, you go figure out yourself. Very busy sigh… I need a break 🙁

According to our friend, guess what? We were told that the donuts here are smaller than KL’s! 30 cents more expensive than KL which I’m not surprise but smaller than KL, that’s so wrong! You already increase the price, you don’t have to reduce the size! ARG! What to do? Kuching people are damn rich, can afford to spend on expensive stuffs.


Left: Most people didn’t eat their donut on the spot, they take-away. Here’s the place for you to eat and you can see the them making donut from the clear glass hahaha… We kept taking photos of them and observing how they did it.
Right: Present to you, M! Hehehe… Taken at Starbucks. You have any idea who she is? Hehehe… She’s the belly dance girl during Kuching Entertainers’ Night.

By the way, there’s another report for the bloggers’ meet last Saturday but I’m still waiting for photos to be sent to me. Sigh… Others already got theirs, I haven’t get mine. I have several posts lining up as well… No time to edit the photos also.

BUSY! SUCKS! Sigh… I am so not happy with you people! Always make me stress and busy. Always waste my time also. The cost and the time just don’t justify, I’m so not happy!

My hair is OK after the hair wash, phew… But RM60 for a trim is a bit too much, I still can’t quite accept it even though the result turn out OK, easy to maintain.

Right: “Gong Bao” chicken rice(RM5), I heard that it’s very salty.

Anyway, jolly good food you say? *SHRUG*
