SILKYGIRL Precision Liquid Eyeliner

Posted on July 9, 2009July 9, 2009 By sweet surrender 6 Comments on SILKYGIRL Precision Liquid Eyeliner

All right! It’s bad to go to a shopping mall when you are pissed with people or not in very good mood. I ended up buying SILKYGIRL Precision Liquid Eyeliner at Cindy, tHe Spring just now. I almost wanted to buy some eyeshadows to add to my collection and fake lashes but phew… Lucky me for being able to control my spending.

I mentioned before that I’m not going to invest in an eyeliner any sooner but now… I finally got one.

I’m new to using liquid eyeliner. Even with pencil eyeliner I have problem drawing. I tried my sis’ eyeliner last time and I messed up big time! ;p

I bought SILKYGIRL Precision Liquid Eyeliner because it’s cheap, only RM16.90. I opened up the tester and the felt-tip brush seemed not so bad because the one my sis has is not the same, it’s pretty hard for me to draw as a first-timer. Furthermore, this is waterproof which is a good thing.

I went home, tried it out and it’s indeed great for first timer. My hands are not steady hahaha… However with the brush it’s quite easy to draw and control how you want to draw. It’s just like using a marker pen. Phew… So easy.

The photo here isn’t very clear because earlier on I already had eyeshadows applied then I applied eyeshadows over it, then tried to smudge it a bit. I tried to draw differently to see the effect, one side thicker and one side thinner. However the thinner one didn’t work out well because I still haven’t master the skill in drawing one steady thin line ;p

Actually I wanted to show you the before after effect but somehow it cannot be seen in the photo but in real life it does define my eyes and make it seems slightly bigger.

The downside is that it’s not very fast drying, it took quite awhile to dry. Maybe because I applied a bit too much ;p

Anyway, I’m glad I didn’t buy something that I will have trouble using. For now, I’m going to practice and practice so that I will be able to apply the type that my sis has hahaha…

Oh… I just found out that SILKYGIRL has a website.

Loreal White Perfect Radiance Boosting Double Essence with Tourmaline Gemstone

Posted on July 4, 2009July 3, 2009 By sweet surrender No Comments on Loreal White Perfect Radiance Boosting Double Essence with Tourmaline Gemstone

Such long name ;p

Anyway, I got the samples by redeeming it with a printout from its website that I found in facebook. I was given with two sachets and they lasted for 4 weeks.

The essence is enriched with tourmaline gemstone that can help stimulate skin microcirculation which will give you intense radiance and rosy glow.

As you know, Loreal White Perfect range contains Advancde Melano-Block to regulate the melanin production at the source to give you fairer skin.

It also contains Pro-Radiance Complex which is a powerful combination of Lactic Acid and Glycolic Acid that help in exfoliating darkened surface dead cells charged with excess melanin to boost skin transparency.

In fact, I was attracted by the “tourmaline gemstone” phrase that made me wanted to try it;p

My verdict? I don’t think I experience any difference hahaha… Did I? I’m not sure hmm… I think I saw some rosy glow, slightly fairer and luminous but I’m not so sure or it might just be psychological effect hahaha…

However, I love the feel after applying it. The skin was so smooth and soft to touch. I applied to my face 2 times a day, day and night after toning and before moisturizing but most of the time at night, I applied it without applying moisturizer after that.

Will I buy it? I might or I might not, I’m not sure. I don’t know how much it costs, if it’s not too expensive as in below RM40, I might but I’m sure it costs more than RM40.

Maybelline AngelFit Brighten Up Blush (Strawberry)

Posted on June 17, 2009June 18, 2009 By sweet surrender No Comments on Maybelline AngelFit Brighten Up Blush (Strawberry)

Bought Maybelline AngelFit Brighten Up Blush (Strawberry) few months back as I’m running out of blusher. It cost me about RM29+, there was discount if not mistaken.

Finally today I’m using it for the first time as I was experimenting with my makeups. Love the colour but I hate the brush! It’s so rough. This is my first time come across such rough brush. This is also my first time buying Maybelline blusher.

Don’t think I will use the brush that comes with it even though it has a nice angular shape quite suitable for the cheek and provide the effect that I want but it’s just to harsh to be used. Will wash my previous blusher brush and use it, it feels much better and it was never rough from the beginning.

Thumbs down for the brush, thumbs up for the colour.

Hmm… Maybe I might want to try to soften the brush by washing it with shampoo or something ;p

Maybelline Unstoppable Curly Extension Mascara

Posted on June 11, 2009June 17, 2009 By sweet surrender 6 Comments on Maybelline Unstoppable Curly Extension Mascara

Maybelline Unstoppable Curly Extension mascara is my second mascara from Maybelline Unstoppable range. First one was the basic Maybelline Unstoppable Mascara.


I bought this because there was a discount at Guardian. Original price was RM30+, the discounted price was RM24+. Actually I wanted to buy the new Maybelline Cat Eyes from the Volum’ Express Hypercurl range but the stock wasn’t in yet. Will buy it next time but don’t know when ;p

I wanted to buy brown colour but there’s only black left. I don’t really like black mascara but having this change once in a while isn’t really a big deal so long it doesn’t smudge and hopefully it’s waterproof. I hope this is waterproof -.-” I forgot to check whether it’s waterproof or not, only realized there’s no “waterproof” stated on the tube when back home. However, the previous Unstoppable seemed didn’t give me any problem so it should be OK.


Eyelashes without mascara.


Left: One coat only and I could see the difference instantly. The picture here doesn’t do much justice. I did notice the differences. It looked quite natural too as if I didn’t apply anything.

Right: Two or three coats, don’t remember as I was in rush applying it and that explains why some of the eyelashes seemed out of the way and there are some clumps because I made a last minute decision to add one last coat which was a bit too late ;p The difference for this is even huge! Then again, the photo just doesn’t show much hahaha…

It does extend, it does curl better compare to others that I used before. I didn’t use eyelash curler.

It doesn’t smudge and that’s good.

Waterproof or not? It’s not! *HORROR* Hahaha… I know why now… Coz the previous one was brown so it’s not that obvious, black will be pretty obvious. Have to becareful… Cannot shed a tear with this.

Hmm… Maybe I will try to wash the brush with shampoo or something to see it can be softened or not.

Celcom Broadband

Posted on April 20, 2009April 24, 2009 By sweet surrender 14 Comments on Celcom Broadband

Remember the prize I got from CIMB? I finally got it on 13th April 2009.

They sent me the modem and a cheque. Phew… Luckily they sent the modem because the modem is so expensive. If they only sent me the cheque then I really don’t know whether I should use this service or not as I will have to fork out more than RM300 for a modem to use for one year only. I checked Celcom’s site and it stated that the modem is RM499 or RM799 for original price.

The monthly fee for the broadband isn’t cheap too, RM98/month for 3.6Mbps, at least my one year usage fee is covered. Still… Forking out such money for just the modem really not worth it at all.


Here’s the modem. It can also be used as thumbdrive but I don’t think it’s worth it to buy the micro SD because it’s so expensive! I rather just buy a normal thumbdrive with very big space.

I do not plan to extend after that because I don’t need it at all. Even if I do go traveling, I can easily get free wifi everywhere nowadays. Besides, I won’t spend much time online when I go traveling, having it is just a matter of being convenient to get connected such as in the comfort of your room or anywhere or anytime.

I went to get it activated on 14/4/2009 at Blue Cube, tHe Spring. The people there got quite blurred on what to do and I was also blurred on what I should do that time. Should I pay to activate or not? Luckily I brought the letter from CIMB along and finally they said I don’t have to pay anything. That’s right, you shouldn’t be required to pay for your prize.

After filling in all the forms, they told me I should be able to use it the next day but I didn’t bother to test it out the next day. My bro tested it out with his PC but got no signal at all. We thought they haven’t activate for us so I didn’t bother as it’s free, I was also busy with a project too. I only tried it on 16/4/2009.

When I first tried it out, I got signal but it was very unstable. My MSN got disconnected for don’t know how many times. Once connected, it got disconnected without any chance to let me even see who’s online. It kept switching from one service to another.

I didn’t bother to connect to MSN. I just surfed around with it because only surfing could be done. After one hour later, I tried to connect my MSN and finally there’s no disconnection. It was stable all the way with the auto switching between 3G, GPRS and HSDPA but no disconnection.


The picture you see here is the speed when I was uploading a 30MB+ file and light surfing in my living room, quite an isolated section in the house. Streamyx would take a while only. With this, it took me more than 50 minutes! I kept checking on the uploading because I’m so not use to having such slow upload after many years of using Streamyx.

I’m not saying that Streamyx is good and Celcom broadband is bad as they are two different things. Fixed and wired line is always better than wireless for sure because wireless have to depend on the surrounding and coverage. If coverage is good, then you get good service.

If you are using it at quite an isolated area, the signal is really weak. My bro’s computer totally cannot use Celcom Broadband at all because of the computer location which even mobile phone signal isn’t very good there. Basically, if you have good signal on your mobile phone at one place, this is the best place for you to use wireless broadband.

I tried it in my room which is less isolated and the signal of HSDPA was excellent. I managed to stream some videos on You Tube. Don’t ask me the speed because I forgot to track. If I’m using it in the living room, the signal kept changing from between 3G, GPRS and HSDPA.

The limit of monthly data usage is 5GB, once you reach 5GB, your speed will be reduced for the rest of the month. 5GB is very limited I would say.

The package you take also depends very much on your area because some places only have 3G or GPRS. HSDPA is still not widely available yet and I’m lucky that my area has all 3 of them.

I can’t really give you a good review in this as I never use any other broadband except Streamyx and now Celcom. In fact I’m not fully on Celcom Broadband because when I have big files to download or upload I have to switch back to Streamyx.

Celcom Broadband is just another option for mobile internet to me but I think it might be better than Maxis or Digi because I heard a lot of complains from some friends such as the line can be slower than a dial-up connection and very unstable.

Should you get it or not? If only when you move around a lot and no fixed line at home.
