Eyelid Stitching Part 2: Recovery process



Hello!
As you guys know, I got double eyelid stitching d! I blogged the whole process in my last post.
(Read this first) Part 1: http://karweigoay.blogspot.com/2015/01/double-eyelid-stitching-part-1-process.html
Anyway, I just made my second visit back to the clinic for the doctor to check on my eyes.







Say no more, I bet you people got really curious on how my eyelids healing d!

Recovery Process

Day 1 (the same day I did):


I got home looking like this, my mom freaked out, nothing else.
No pain no fuss. Though I was feeling like having a thousand ants pulling my eyelids hahaha! They felt damn tight all the time. 
All is good and my eyelids felt like marshmallow till night lolol!! 麻醉药好强


The blue marker stayed on for days because I was too scared to touch, let alone removing it.
I couldn't sleep that night lmao!  Cus I was afraid of ruining the thread   :'( 



Day 2:
Bruises got worse than the first day, my eyes got all reddish and blood-like. Quite scary.
Hurt a little, feels as if I got punched in the eyes.  觉得自己被海扁的感觉


From Snapchat. I took this to scare all my friends 


My eyes got more swollen than ever, I made a call to AO klinik.
They asked me to not let water to touch my eyes yet, so I didn't shower HAHAHHA fuck lah I'm damn lazy cos they actually just asked me to not let water get onto my eyelids but I used it as an excuse to not let water touch me entire body!
I did washed my face carefully tho, without letting water near my eyes.


Wore a mask while I went out to increase peoples' curiosity.


There are 5 tiny hole on each of my eyelid. They marked where the thread went through.
Eyelid stitching, means stitching a thread through your eyelids, therefore forming double eyelids.
The threads will be looking kinda obvious during the recovery process, but till they are fully recovered,
They wont be seen anymore, so no worries!

我做的是stitching  顾名思义就是缝/埋线  所以有线是正常的 
刚做好的时候会很明显的看到有线在眼皮上面 可是等到完全复原就不会看到了!
所以要耐心等待呀  会变美美的  :)



Day 4 & 5:


Still bruising and swelling. But you can tell the shape is looking good.
Some of the parts got extra reddish and my mom said it was.. infection :// ? I wasn't but they come and go quickly!
On day 4 & 5 my eyes got quite itchy lor!  I beh tahan and I very carefully rubbed them.
Oh and also my eyes got very very dry  ://  luckily Dr. Ha did give me some eye-drop <3 


Here's a closer photo that I forgot whether I took it on day 4 or 5.
Either way, not much diff.
I stayed in these few days and almost died of boredom :/  



Day 6:


**DO NOT ASK WHAT HAPPENED TO MY FACE**
I got into a minor accident that's all. 

On the sixth day I had a lunch date with my best friend. 
So I filled in my brows a little, went out like this weeeeeeeeeee.
As you can see my eyes recovering really good d wow wow! Getting better each day.
Patience is ALL I NEED <3


I know you guys must be very curious and go all what happened to your face?!
Accident okay accident.   Let's ignore it, stay focus on my eyes :D






Day 8:

It's been exactly one week!
I made my second visit back to AO Klinik and I put on a little makeup cos I cannot tahan how deadly I look anymore!

Taaaaadaaaaa!  是不是蛮美了  :D    #不要脸
I drew an ultra eyeliner and made sure I didn't touch the thread at all.



5 of the tiny holes that I mentioned earlier already being slowly absorbed le la! 
Soon I'll have really natural eyelids d, can't wait :D
I even took a super chio selfie:


...


Tho the girls from AO Klinik advised me to not to put on make up/ wear contact lenses if its unnecessary.
Because my eyes still swollen abit lah actually, look at the photo, the dark dark part on my eyelid.
Thats no eyeshadow, its bruising hahaa.


From day 1 to day 8.
Hahhahahahahaha gosh such big difference!  
他妈的真的差很多 好像两个不同的人    化妆还有相机的威力呀


Guess I'll stop at Day 8 as I see them healing quite fast already!
Maybe I'll do a up-to-date post one month later.  But I'm already satisfy with the result on day 8 d!

Now, lets move on to another section,


Q&A

Okay now I'm going to answer all your questions HERE.
Pretty sure you can find everything HERE.  If not, comment yr question under this post, I'll add it in.
Don't get on my nerves by coming up to me and asking the same question again T.T
I really cannot repeat the same thing for a hundred times okay?  And I'm almost there d.
Pay extra attention on the part you're keen! Be considerate and save both of ours time :p


Q:  How long will it last? 这双眼皮会耐多久
For my case(stitching) can last only like 2-3 years depending how fast the thread will go disappear;
For cutting, it can last forever.

But I chose not to cut, because I'm still young and I'm not ready to change my look forever yet.
I mean, if thing goes wrong with the stitching, I can always go back to the clinic and take the thread off.
If I were to cut them, uh-oh, even if I hate it also there's nothing I can do already.

因为我是用缝的 所以只能耐2-3年这样  ; 如果是割的话 就可以耐永远的
我不想要割  因为还年轻先缝缝看 自己喜不喜欢   几年等它脱落后再决定割也不迟。


Q:Does it hurt? 会痛吗
Not at all. Though I felt slightly uncomfortable on day 4th and 5th.
It's nothing much ma :)   It just felt like I got punched in the eyes hahha. For real!
Tho the recovery process hurt a little bit, oh just imagine you got something wrong and got punched!
Rest for a few days then no problem d la :D

真的不会痛  因为医生的麻药真的很强 ;
麻醉针打了我直接觉得自己的眼皮是棉花糖  麻麻的 什么都没感觉  ^_^
而复原的时候前几天 眼睛就会感觉肿肿黑青的  会有一点点不舒服 ;
可是我到第6 & 7 就不会这样了  很快就过去了


Q: How long will it take to be fully recovered?
According to the doctor, 7 days till its done swelling, 3-4 weeks till it becomes completely natural.
医生说7天会消肿   ,3到4个礼拜就会很自然啦 :)


Q:  Need to rest how many days till I put on makeup & wear contact lenses? 做了过后多久能化妆
Doctor did advice that I don't wear contact lenses for one month. Hahah but I couldn't tahan!
As you see above, I curi curi wore them and put on make up on day 8 already :p
Anyways, doctor said I could totally draw eyeliner, as long as it doesn't affect the part where the thread is placed.

医生是劝说停止佩戴隐形眼镜1个月左右  可是我不听话的第8天就戴了 T.T 希望没什么影响
化妆是可以啦!  只要没有影响到线的位置


Q: You already got double eyelid, why did you do again?
I am saying this for one last time, I DONT HAVE DOUBLE EYELID.
I know what I am so don't piss me off by accusing this and that



This is how my eyes normally look like.
Not only are they single, they're also super 'lazy eyes' 懒惰眼  无神眼
All of those fakee double eyelids you saw from my selfies are not real!  :/
I have this talent where I can kek my eyes from single to double eyelid for photo-taking hahaha!


Even after makeup I still single-eyelids one okkkkk.
So please, gimme a break <3


Q: Why you wanna reveal to the public that you did this? Aren't you scared of gossips? 为什么要公开 不怕被人讲吗
Hahahha I really think it's nothing, I just love to share.
Singaporen bloggers do this a lot: blog about their Plastic Surgery trip to Korea and all that.
And it's very common these days!

And you can never stop people from talking.  Does that mean you have to stop doing what u like to avoid being on others lips?
I love blogging and I'm gonna do it, despite what people say.
Don't you be so naive and think that you won't be the gossip topic just because you don't show nothing at all.
现今社会   很多事情都是 躺着也中枪 。
来去都要被讲了 , make your side of story worth the read   :)

Here's my tips on how to not care what people thin/sayL



Also, I wanna use this as a chance to advise people that keen on doing aesthetic/ surgeries,
Please go to the legit clinics!   Do not believe anything you see online.

这个不是开玩笑的   我想要告诉所有人不要轻易相信你在网上看到的微整店
有很多都没有certificate的  ,也不是真正医生
就上过几次的课程就敢敢学人家开店 真的太夸张了  好恐怖
请大家三思   不要贪便宜   ;出事的时候后悔就太迟了
还是花多点钱去正规的诊所吧



Q: Will you be doing anything else? 除了眼睛你还会做其他部位吗
Hahaha I can't say anything for sure! But for now, nope, I wont be doing anything else anytime soon.
But I think I will be saving up for my nose next, but we will see :'(   need to save another round of money.


做了眼睛 就开始觉得自己的鼻子丑了   ;人都这么不知足呀。


Before & After Comparison Photo



Before double eyelid stitching and the eighth day after it! 
Tho they have not fully recovered yet but you can tell my eyes have very big diffs d heheh.

从还没有做双眼皮埋线前到埋过后的第八天
虽然还有点小肿 没有完全康复  ,可是差别已经很大啦!
相信完全痊愈的时候会更加自然更加好看.



Thank you all for reading and I'll be really happy if I helped enlightening your wonders
I appreciate all the positive comments that I've gotten.
For any of you that thinks I'm brave and all, thanks!   Luv you ~ <3 




And enough, don't keep questioning/ obsessing about what happen to my face lah!!
Lehma I fell off a motorcycle okay?!   Fuck damn siasui bye.

Double Eyelid Stitching Part 1: Process & Thoughts

This is gonna be one long ass blog post.
Be patient or be gone :p





So I bet yall already knew that I planned on doing eyelid-stitching since I stated it loud and clear in my 2015 Resolutions.
Yepppp, I  already get them done   T_____T   A round of applause for my efficiency please!
Its's a long story from consultation till them finally done, I'll gonna elaborate every single detail properly so you don't miss out. 


The Doctor
Dr. Ha is a very very good doctor, professional, patient, friendly, always smiling, never got annoyed even tho
I asked like a thousand times the same question regarding the procedure. Non-stop he kept giving me his words. He is very nice lah!!
So glad that I chose the right doctor, cos I always chose the wrong boys HAHAHA just a joke :p 

"Wei doctor what if the outcome not nice ah!!" Me being the paranoid me.
"Then I'll do it again for you, do until you satisfy okay?"   Says doctor with the world most friendly smile.
"WAAAAAAAA FREE IS IT"  Me being my greedy self HAHHAA.
"Hahah yes" Says Dr Hah, the world most generous doctor.
I was like  :O :O :O
Ok after he said that I'm not worried at all d lol.

Because the worst thing that I scared is that I paid the money, but the outcome isn't what I desired it to be.
懂不懂  就是那种钱出了还是不美的感觉 lolol
我没有怕失败  没有怕割到我眼睛之类的,姐只是怕效果出来不美!
可是听医生这么说 这么把握  这么有信心 ,我也没有这么担心啦  T.T


I can't tell you enough how good Dr. Hah is, I just can't. 
Maybe its because this is my first aesthetic procedure, with the money I saved for half year and more,
It felt more than just a procedure, it's the trust that matters.  The faith!!!!!!
And I am happy beyond words that I stumbled upon Dr. Hah. I trusted him with my soul and I have no regret!!
Lol sounds dramatic but u know how they say you need one week to recover and done swelling?
I'm typing this 3 days after the procedure and my eyes hardly swollen now!  It's healing really fast and let me tell you,
Dr. Ha's stitching skill is MAD GOOD. MAD GOOD I tell you 

I felt nothing throughout the whole process I almost fell asleep. 
The girls were there too, throughout the whole process. They watched as the doctor stitched.
They said the doctor was very fast, accurate and the whole process was actually scary hahah but the doctor handled damn well!
就是那种传说的  快,狠,准


The Process
All the photos are taken by Michelleeeeee, thank you loveeee <3 
Just to give u a head up, all these photos are not specially posed for. My natural self.
Damn ugly ah. Don't judge ah. And you'll know why I keep calling myself ugly d ah.
-


Arrived at Dr. Ha's clinic at 11:30 when my appointment is set at 11am. Hahaha :p
We happened to bump into a mid-aged aunty who was also waiting to get a aesthetic procedure too.

Ohhh, did I mention that Dr. Ha is a dentist too..
OK I KNOW HOW THIS SOUNDS TO YOU. But he is good in both teeth & face work!


This is where I'll be sitting the whole process.
I felt a little bit uneasy at first, was like 'hey I'm getting face work, why put me on this chair'
Confession hour, I've been afraid of going to the dentist ever since I was little.
So, putting me onto a chair like this only reminds me of my childhood phobia, double up my anxiety.
Nice work doctor.  *grumpy*


These two are Dr, Ha's students who trying that gain themselves some knowledge by being there to see the whole thing.
They were asking why would I wanna do this, how old am I, bla bla.



Dr. Ha!


The girls! They were there for me inside the treatment room.
Another milestone of ours  T.T    "看karwei变美之mission"


I was damn nervous I updated a super lala wechat status. 
In case something happens right, must leave some last words to my friends..
Choi.  I'm here typing this perfectly fine :)

Yes, I look like a bald when I tie all my hair up cos my hairs too thin and flat.


Hahaha!  Then I showed Dr. Ha my selfie photos, trying to describe what my ideal eyes look like.
I look as if I have double eyelid in all my photos, thats only because I kek my eyes open lols! 
I don't know how to explain it to you, I'll try to explain in next post.


Listened to what I had to say, he then poked my eyes with a thin silver metal thing.
Trying to create the effect that how my eyes will be looking after the procedure!


Doctor:  Is this okay for you?
Me:  *asks everybody else in the room*  


Yes, I said okay.
Dr. Ha then drew the place he'll be stitching the thread with a marker pen.
A super strong marker pen that it stayed on for 3 days AND I AM NOT ALLOWED TO WASH MY EYES.



After everything set in place, doctor asked if I was ready.
Hell yeaaaa, I've never been more ready!! Lolllll actually I was still nervous
Anesthetic injection comes next.  The anesthetic only on my eyes, not whole body.
So only my eyes get numb, every other part of my body still can function well!
I was awake throughout the whole time!! No pass out lolll



After the injection
Doctor:  How your eyes feel?
Me:  I feel like having two big marshmallows up on my eyes.


Please look at how single eyelid I am, and lazy eyes!  
I'm so sorry I lied you all with my selfies and all those fancy photos :p
I actually looked like this.


After the anesthetic effect takes place, Dr. Ha lured me into signing a 生死状



HAHHAHAHA no lah! It's just a formal paper stating that there'll be risk for every aesthetic procedure,
And to let me know that what I'm about to bring myself into and I'm all willingly to enter it.



Ok here we go.


All covered up like this so the doctor can put the concentration on my eyes?..

Thats it, we weren't allow to take anymore photos of the further process.
But I can tell you what happened BUAHHAHA.

Doctor first took a cap thingy and put it onto my eyeball, both of them. In order to protect my eyes.
And next, he started stitching d. That'll only be my assumption because
I really really really couldn't feel a thing, can't even tell if he was touching my eyes or no
I felt damn bored I almost felt asleep, but the doctor kept me awake by frequently asking how I feel

Doctor: How you feel?
Me: Nothing
Doctor: How you feel now?
Me: Nothing
Doctor: How you feel now
Me: I SAID NOTHING
..

Okay I didn't caplock him and I know he just wanted to make sure I feel no pain. Very lovely and full of patience
He asked every 5 seconds, no kidding. Few minutes later, he's done with my right eye. Thats it?! So fast

Then my left eye, I guess the anesthetic effect kinda faded d, so at one point, I felt as if a knife stabbed into my eyelid.
I screamed.. The doctor said Sorry, then put on more anesthetic med for me. Then I felt alright d.

DO U HAVE ANY IDEA HOW IMPORTANT ANESTHETIC IS!??
Very very very important. It is that one thin line between hell and heaven.
Make sure you go to proper clinics that provide good anesthetic cream. Don't siao siao.


15 minutes later,






Holla new eyes! 
It takes 1-3weeks to get really really natural eyelids. So I'll have to wait!
And the doctor say after 7 days, it will not be so swollen anymore.
Heh, I'm typing on Day 5, almost recovered d!  Nothing major also no bruises d

The stitching process took only about 10-15 minutes, 
The other time was just me swinging in the room, talking none-sense(I do this when I'm nervous),
Talking to the girls, being on my phone and the anesthetic application. 
Thats what makes the procedure long. Actually if to get it done quickly, 30 mins should be done d.
But the doctor tend to put u in a more relaxing feel, talk to you. Thats why :)



Uploaded this on Instagram and I received 2 emails & 4 new friend requests on wehchat,
Asking about information regarding this double eyelid thing.
Seriously this is like my very first time my reader emails me, and it's about a aesthetic treatment! Haha



The girls told me that it was quite scary to watch:
Dr. Ha was holding a very very tiny needle, then he flipped my eyelid inside out, and started stitching..
They said they damn kan jeong for me hahaha!



I survived.  
Victory is mine



When I thought I couldn't get any uglier.. I saw this photo of myself.. Smh.
Anyways, my eyes just swollen for a bit. No blood, no bruises (yet)
We then left the clinic, go to airport and jump on a plane back home.



If you're wondering about my vision afterwards, nope, no problem seeing things!
Just that my eyes couldn't get exposed too much under sunlight, seeing brighter things make them tired.
And I would love to have shades on all day, guess my eyes love a darker world. 




Guess I'll have to leave the recovery process in next post!
If I were to fit everything into one blog post, Blogger would sue me for being such naggy-ass blogger.
So, stay tuned to see how amazingly my eyes look afterwards! 
I'll update SOOOOOOOOON <3


My Thoughts

So far, I've received nothing but supportive comments from all my friends and families.
I really don't need any of your judgment because I is super happy with my decision.
My mom asked
"Most of the people went to do plastic surgery also damn secretive one.
Why the fuck are you not scared of letting people know?" 

I don't, I just don't okay?
It's really common these days and fuck natural beauty, there is no natural beauty.
Before you point your finger at me, think about how many surgeries your 女神 went for before they became your 女神.
Open up your instagram, how many of them pretty girls still 100% pure?
And you know what they say, even putting on braces is considered as plastic surgery. Pfff.

My point is, the society only cares about how pretty you became at the end of the day.
Not how many works u get done on your face. Don't even try to deny it
You know it in your heart.

And I want to blog about this, in case anyone wants to go for a double-eyelid stitching,
I'm always ready to share!!  Again I'm saying this, choosing the right clinic is crucial.
Whats with helping others to get more infos about the clinic you went to?
Lolll some people infuriating me, got the balls to do dont have the balls to admit.

By 2. Haaahahah
Ok just kidding :*

 I know some of you is very lovely and supportive.
Love you!! 


Thanks for reading, stay tuned for my next recovery post! xx

2014 Favorites!

Blogged about my 2015 resolutions and I did mention about nothing good happened to me in 2014.
Well it wasn't quite true, at least I got a handful of new cosmetics! :p (and a lot a lot of shopping sessions)  It all started after I worked at SASA a a part-timer during my sem break and got more exposed to countless cosmetics brands since. Hence started looking for best-suited products for me and I must say it's very crucial, because good products certainly worth what it costs!

Flipping through my makeup desk and to present you my favorite products of 2014!
And of course I'm still using 'em now :) 



Disclaimer:  There's no way I'm trying to brag or show off anything that I bought. 
Because these things are probably very "cheap" to some people only.
How dare I promote the element of bragging  :x 

Disclaimer #2: Everything I say is based on my own opinions and experiences.
I can't guarantee the product works on everyone of you as it did on me. Different skin problems different solutions! :)
What I say is only how I feel. It ain't no fact nor official-knowledge. Always feel free to disagree with my statement loves.


Now let's get into it First we're gonna talk about my fave fave must-have skin care's! 


Now let me tell you how I came across this brand.
So one day, I was making the lamest walk @ Subang airport waiting for my flight.
One girl then approach me and asked if I wanna get my skin tested for free, considering how much longer do I have to wait to get into the departure hall, I went for it. The test showed that my skin is super dehydrated from depth within and that time I actually had quite a lot of breakouts as well as some itchy red spots caused by sensitivity. Without doubt, the girl then tried to talk me into purchasing their products (arboh why they give u free test hhshaha) saying it would help my skin a lot bla bla bla. I didn't listen to her at all actually HAHA. Cos first, I've never heard of this brand called Ren. Second, I am the kind of person that does a lot of researched before getting new skin care's. Plus their products cost like hundred smtg, I was like NOOOOO, jie is poor.  So I refused. She then said nvm, handed me a sample size of their Vita Mineral Rescue Cream, said I must quickly get rid of those itchy & sensitive red spots on my face before they get too serious. She did look as if she genuinely wanted to help me.

I then went back home and applied it to sleep
First impression: OMG IT'S SO STICKY I CAN'T EVEN SLEEP HAVING IT ON.
Truth is, the cream is very very sticky but exactly what my skin needs! 
I bear with the stickiness and tried my best not to munch my hair that keep glued to my face/ mouth fml.
Woke up next morning, surprise, ALL THE RED SPOTS ARE GONE! No more itch no more redness!

I was like :O :O :O !?
The next thing I know I'm picking up my phone, calling my friend that was currently in KL, 
Distributes him a task - To help me get the full size product, sending him the photo of the sample size product hahaha.
Without hesitation, I looked it up online:
To my surprise, Ren is quite a famous skin care brand, they have a retail shop at Bangsar.
A lot of beauty bloggers out there, again and again rave about them!  Damn son 



Favorite Skin Care 2014: Ren Vita Mineral Emollient Rescue Cream
The texture is very very sticky and hard to spread on the face. But then it was a sign that my face is very dry and dehydrated lah. 
Due to its crazy stickiness, I only use it as night to experience the 'brand-new-face' experience the next morning!
It moisturizes not only the surface of my skin but to depth, inside out! How'd I know? Cos I can feel it.

My skin get super hydrated the next morning and it felt as if it's the cream works it's magic throughout the night.
And other moisturizing products that I tried (Laneige, Dr.G. Origins, etc) can never give me this feeling.
Until today, it still surprised me everytime I use the rescue cream lor! 


Favorite Skin Care/ Primer 2014: Ren Vita Mineral Omega 3 Optimum Skin Serum Oil
I decided to give this a try after the good experience I had with the Rescue cream.
Let me say this ........... are all Ren's products this good?  T.T 
Shut up and take my money!  
Speaking of this serum oil, it makes me skin GLOWS (dei, it's oil!) 
And I was reluctant to use it alone. Siao meh. When there's wind I totally cannot breathe at all, with all hair sticking to my face. THEREFORE, I use it under makeup, as a primer!  And trust me, it was the best decision that I made.
I no longer need highlighter bitches!  My skin glows from within! 
But I must say that it's impossible to be used alone due to it's stickiness :/ 



-
Tho I'm currently using some medical face creams given by my skin doctor, I still take time out to use these 2 products! 
I would love to talk about those medical face creams but I don't know how, My doctor gave them to me and I just used.
It's distributed according to my own skin condition (yep, according to doctor, my face is super dry too, same statement blah)

Anyways, if you're wondering, I am a loyal visitor of Klinik Arun. 
My favorite skin doctor is there! I am not quite sure of his name, but he is an old-aged Indian guy with long & frizzy grey hair that usually tie up as a pony tail, as well as messy grey beard that seems to never been groomed, wearing a spectacle, looking friendly, and always laugh at me when I said I wan a flawless, cyrstal-clear skin lol, then said "Ok then, other than my products. You don't use anything else" 
 And he's always so chilled and chatty with me even when there's a freaking long queue outside but he doesn't seem to be rushing anyway. Very professional. I went to his since I was 14, and now I am 20. It takes an hour drive to his clinic and I still do it every time I get any skin problem. Ahhh I just love him lah! ;)


Next, lets get into the to *chiang chiang chiang chiang*




Favorite face combos!
No more further elaboration needed for the Ren Omega 3 Serum oil, it has proudly won my heart for both skin care and primer favorite! :p


Favorite Liquid Foundation 2014: Smashboxxxxxxxxx Studio Skin 12 Hour Wear Hydrating Foundtion
Gonna be needing to wear makeup from early morning to late night?  No problemmmmmm gallllllllllllllllll.  
Well, only if you primed your face properly, otherwise it will get A LITTLE BIT flaky on the drier area such as nose tip.
Other than that, you have nothing to be worried about! This foundation looks great on, looks better in photo, has medium to high coverage, unless it's super huge pimple, other flaws such as big pores/ redness/ blackheads/ 油粒 can all be easily covered! 
One pump can be used to cover the whole face also, I've using this for like 6-7months and it still left like 20%.
And fyi, I wear makeup a lot lah!
So it's quite worth the money and it's damn perfect if to pair with Ren's Serum Oil!

(why do I sound so commercial-ish lol I'm just talking about my experience ni T.T)



Favorite Concealer 2014: Laura Mercier Undercover Pot 2
Err, can we just ignore how dirty the bottle looks.. 
There are 2 colors in the concealer pot: 
The lefter one is used to cover any flaw you have on your precious lil face; the righter one is to cover under-eye dark circle.
But I don't use it as it's recommend to cos I'm a thug I ain't listen to nobody #ThugLife



HAHAHHAHAHAH no!   Just kidding.
It's only because the lefter is quite dry and the right one is too watery.
So, I thought of a solution to mix them two together, works just perfect! 


When you open the upper part, there's another compartment down under carrying Laura Mercier Finishing Power. 
But the design is really really stupid bcos it got all the 'holes' open and nothing to hold down the powder, they just get everywhere and look at what's happening on the photo above. It gets all accumulated on top like that, how to use!????
Such a waste, they should've designed something like Makeup For Ever Finishing Power's concept, to have something put on the cap of the product, that it can press down to the powder when you close the product. 
So it wouldn't get anywhere and let the product go to waste. 


I really love this concealer but it is too overpriced.
WAY TOO OVERPRICE.   Rm149.90 for a concealer?   Just crazy and not within my purchasing power yet.
Yaya I bought it I know -.- and I kinda starved myself after this purchase no kidding. What I am saying is I will not get another one when it's finished lah. And another thing is, it finishes up very quickly!!  I have only used it for like 3-4months and I actually don't use it everytime I makeup (I got other concealers tho, cause this too exp I sometimes don't have the heart to use :/)  but it still broke my heart. 
Used for a while only I already can see the bottom of the case..

Good thing, y u so expensive 



Moving on to my favorite eyes combo!


Favorite Brow Pencil 2014: Dior Snow Brow Styler
Since two years back, my best friend Jayee Lim had been telling me HOW AWESOME Dior's eyebrow pencil is.
I didn't quite believe it because she is a big fan of Dior herself and she practically tells me everything from Dior is nice!
HAHHAHAH well maybe they are! 
Till a few months back in August, my other friend Ivor took Jayee's suggestion and bravely went for this brow pencil.
Damn son, it's like RM89 for a brow pencil. I believe she hesitated quite a while and decided to invest, for the sake of nice brows!
Being my nosy self, I confirm asked how is it, whether it lived up to the name or not.

She said "Woah, now I know how important it is to invest in a nice brows pencil. Seriously"
Walao this sensetence means a lot already ok?!  It's like she finally found the light that leads human kinds to perfect brows lol.
Then I waited till I finished my previous one..... I WENT AND BOUGHT IT T.T 

Let me tell u gallllllllllllllllllllll,
Drawing brows used to worry me the most cos if you fuck it up, you're basically fucked, but now,
drawing brows has never been this easy!!
It's very smooth on the brow(when you draw), good color that makes it define, color gets on easily you don't have to press hard.
 It has got only one color but it looks good on everyone with diff hair color.
And now I need like only 2 minutes to get my brows drawn. Thanks to it!! 


Favorite Liquid Eyeliner 2014: Stila Stay-All-Day Waterproof Liquid Liner
Nope, it doesn't stay all day on me -.-   maybe it's just me because my eyelids are super oily and get even more oily when I have makeup on. So it can only stay for a several hours.   But I can always touch up what so it is not a problem.
The reason why I love it is that it is very easy to work with!
It is not super black kinda black, but it is one of the advantage because when you screw up drawing your eyeliner, you can always wipe the faulty part away with a cotton bud. And if you wanna get like super black eyeliner, it's totally build-able! 
It goes on very smooth and not irritating, some liquid liner gets very irritating lah when u used it near your lashes line your eyes get pains and watery, this doesn't!   :D and it is not super expensive, medium pricing. I'll def purchase more!



*drum rolls*
My Holy Grail!
Favorite Mascara of All Time: Too Faced Better Than Sex

A product that I cannot live without! 
Um, I have already raved and talked about how much I loved it in my May Favorites blog post.


And yes! I've been using it since.
My lashes get not only long, voluminous, and also all separately clean-looking!
While giving you the perfect dream lashes, it doesn't make them look spider-legs-ish. Just no.
It makes me feel that I don't need fake lashes at all in my life and I swear to non-stop purchase it till the day I die T.T

A screen shot of my May Favorite in case you're too lazy to click in and read my long-ass post :p


How well can a mascara work without the help of eyelash curler?
It's like Batman himself works alone without Robin :P  (not sure if this expression is correct.. but u get what I mean)



Favorite Eyelash Curler 2014: Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler.
It makes it to my favorite maybe it's because.. It's the most proper eyelash curler that I've ever used.
Why so? Hmmm I used to use those rm5 Daiso eyelash curler only HAHAHHAHA young and innocent don't judge!
During my time working at SASA, the beauty consultant there said having a good eyelash curler is important,
and they mentioned how Shu Uemura's is really good, so.. yep! I went to buy it after getting my salary lol.


Now you know the trick of getting your dream lashes (Shu Uemura Curler + Better Than Sex Mascara)
What's next is to take care of your lashes by removing them with makeup remover that protects your lashes from being harmed.

Yep.


Favorite Makeup Remover 2014: Waterproof Eye Makeup Remover from Sephora.
It helps remove my eye makeup efficiently, protects my lashes and helps them grow! 
I can feel my lashes very nourished everytime after I remove make up one
I once told my friends 'Eh 为什么我的lashes好像越卸妆越多次它生更长" T.T
I then realize it's because everytime I makeup I have to remove ma, then when I remove I happen to use the Sephora Eye Makeup Remover then it helps my eyelashes grow. So the more I remove makeup the more it grows smh.   #KarweisLogic hahahaha


Favorite Eye Shadow 2014: Too Faced Chocolate Bar 

This eye-shadow palette is heavennnn. 
The eye-shadows powder are made of cocoa powder, they smell of chocolate! 
I don't actually use eye shadow a lot, but when I do, I'm always hungry -.- cos the smell of this palette is too amazeballs!
Goshhh I swear I could just eat them.


This palette is perfect for it's color selection. Unlike Naked's, it doesn't only have earth tone browns but carries more fun colors such as pink, purple, dark violet. The colors are all very very beautiful! Need not to mention, they also highly pigmented.  
Perfect in every aspect, damn worth the money lah. I think I'll be using it till I'm 30 no kidding lol

I was torn between getting Naked or Chocolate Bar palette
The girl at Sephora then told me Urban Decay's products actually getting degraded, not as goo as before;
And Too Faced is heating it up, new launched products are getting incredibly good and nice packaging
Won a lot of heart.  I went for it, no regret.




Awwww one of my favorite youtube beauty guru, Jen just uploaded this! 
She's been raving about Chocolate Bar since, I don't know, last year July?!   Nice nice 
Now I be using the same stuff with my idol :p







Favorite Lip Balm 2014: Dior Addict Color Revive Balm
I need a moment of silence for this lip balm.
..
It's one of the best purchase that I've made!  
It plumbs my lips so well, without making it to look like overdo stupid duck lips, 
It can just easily complete any makeup look, must-have for every girls!  Trust me go for a try U WILL LOVE IT.
Very moisturizing, the color is perfect, smells really good, I basically carry it everywhere I go.
Which explains the stains on the cover lol cos it's with me everywhere!
The weakness of it is that it doesn't last long, well, it's just a lip balm, not lipstick after all. 
It already does its job at moisturizing lips, help plumbing, correct the color. I think it's just perfect.

This has my word for the next purchase and it actually lasts quite long.
I got it on June like this and I still using it till now, I used it a lot!!
Very worth very worth.


Speaking of lip products,
I have NO PARTICULAR FAVORITE LIPSTICK in 2014.
I've tried Chanel Rouge Coco Shine (very very moisturizing and long lasting, another must-have)
Yves Saint Lauren (very pigmented and the most beautiful color)
Too Faced Creme Lipstick (very creamy and perfect for dry lips like mine!)
MAC's, I got quite a lot of MAC's (pigmented and better color options!)
Christian Dior's (It dries up a little but I got the most beautiful pink shades so I love it)

... I love them all. I do.   
I can't pick my favorite one. Sorry no photos cos I plan on doing a lipstick collection soon :p
Keep it till then I'll take a lot of pics.



Last but not least, you're never fully dressed without perfume - 


Favorite Scent 2014: Thierry Mugler ALIENNNNNNNNNNNNNN

I've never loved any perfume so much. I mean yea, I have a habit of collecting perfumes but I don't actually really like all of them that I own.  Cos to me all the scents are kinda the same, quite mainstream mainstream:  Fruity, sweet, floral-ish such as Daisy & Honey by MJ's, Viva La Juicy, Roses by Chloe; or sexy, seducing, romantic such as Dior J'adore, Gucci's Flora etc.

Alien is different.  It smells of, mystery.
The first time I tried it, I was omg, this is exactly what I'm looking for, mysterious and unique!
Love at first smell! I swear I fell in love with it instantly! Roarrrrrrrrrr
I didn't get it tho   :/ because it was too expensive T.T



One day, somebody got it for me as a gift!   
I was in shock and of course, gracefully, I accepted it after a long consideration. 
Enjoy being spoiled by loved ones once in a while is fine :P

Omg will you look at the bottle?!  
It's damn eye-catching and by looking at it you can already tell it's nothing like the other perfumes out there in the market.
The bottle if refillable so after it's finishes up I can just get the refill, isn't that just convenient!
I cannot describe how good it smells but I can reassure you that it is like nothing you have ever came across.
It makes you go WOW, your eyes will get lighten up, then you'll fall in love with it instantly.



Except for my mom, my mom hates it.
She said this is the worst-smelling perfume in my collection  -.-
Walaoooo please, after hearing she making such a statement I started to realize not everybody will love the scent.
If you're my gang (as in same kind of person with same kind of taste :p) then you'll def love it;
If you're with my mom, you'll find it stink. 

Errr mother, am I adopted?

Confession hour:
I am kinda a shopaholic person (a bit lah not very serious)
For every frustrated moment in life, I solved it by going shopping.
Buying things make me feel better, doesn't matter it's expensive or no.
As long as I got something new, I will feel like a brand new, happier person.

I told my mom about this and she just rolled her eyes on me and said
"All girls are like that one lah!" 
Yep!  I think so. 

Thanks to shopping, my 2014 got a little better :p
Lighten the year with the glitter of new hauls & new products.
BUAHAHAHHA

(story of my life)

I'd loved to hear if you guys have got any 2014 favorites that you wanna share with me.
Always open for opinions :) !




Thanks for reading, xx.
