June: slipper


I bought this pair of slipper from Mark & Spencer, because the wealther is not that good, likely to have heavy rain. And i was wearing my leather pump today, it cannot be drenched. So i had bought this slipper to wear immediately. It looks summer!

June: Nail color


Had bought this today when I passed by IFC mall today, I was just pass by, a small boutique called Beau Nail, and I found there’re some nail colors displayed, and I was just trying to take a look only. But I found they have all collection of OPI nail color. Including the latest collection India. And I keep searching my Pink, I was wet today by the heavy rain. My skirt, hair and foot were all wet even I was sheltered by my umbrella. So get to buy something to make myself feeling better.


May: Cosmetics


Long long time didn’t bought any make up and skincare. And I just found this interesting product from Manning. BB cream seems to be very popular now, as the magazine already claimed it helps to improve your skin at the same time acting as a foundation. I wonder if that really works, but I do really want to get a try of the BB cream. BB stands for Blemish Balm, so I think it should have the concealer function.
And this BB cream I bought cost at hkd 112.5 only! The standard price is hkd 150, and Manning have 75% off now. So even I don’t used another time after bought, I don’t really waste too much money.

I was so eager to try that actually, so I had applied it on my face this morning without using any base but only moisturizer. The effect is not as good as it claimed on the magazine. But I did find it has a bit coverage. However, not enough at all, unless your skin is so perfect. But I just think if your skin is so perfect , u don’t even need to use any foundation, right? After applied the BB cream on my face, I still used my looser power as usual, cos I found it’s a bit sticky and not enough coverage for me! The texture of the cream is mousse like , it just like those hair mousse. I feel a bit interesting to use this on my face. If I am going to use that every day, guess will used up a month later. I think I still prefer foundation more, or maybe I shall tried other Brand of BB cream next time.

I Had also bought this eyeline gel from Kate. Since I had heard many good comment of using eyeline gel. They said it’s easy to apply on your eyelid no matter it’s a thin or a thick eyeline. I had almost wanted to buy that from Bobbi Brown, their eyeline gel is quite famous. But I found that I need to buy a brush also. If two things together, guess need around hkd 350+ , it’s expensive if I don’t use them everyday! Finally I didn’t bought that! And this Kate eyeline gel is a cheap version, because it costs hkd 95 only with the brush. After try on my right eye, I decide not to use it anymore, because it’s very difficult to handle! Luckily I didn’t buy the Bobbi Brown before. I still prefer to use dark eye shadow to draw my eyeline, it’s quick and easy to apply.

And I also bought a trial pad of Bioderma. I had used that product before, it’s not bad actually. The small size of this trial pad is perfect for my trip.

May: Dress




Some girls really like go to shopping at Zara or H&M, me too! Will just walk in to take a look whenever i pass by. But i never can find something suitable for me. With an affordable price , now i think i will go to Promod in the Festival Walk. It's from France, with many outlets global just like Zara and H&M. The festival walk one is their 1st outlet in HK just lauched in April. I guess they will have more outlet lauched soon in other shopping mall. I like their dress. It's more fun and colorful than those in Zara or H&M, and i think the cutting fits me more. So i had bought this. I think I will visit there sometimes later and try to find other items which may suit me.







And this pic is their model on the dress.


May: skincare


After using up for few bottle of Clinique Mositure Surge ( the peach color cream), I decided to use another brand because it's really boring to use the same one for long time. Clinique just work fine on me , not particular good. So why dont try something new. Last year, i had used Vichy for a short period and then stop, because my face was so sensitive at that time with many acne. But i quite like Vichy, it seems very scientific. And i had found this new product, the pump design of the bottle is nice to use. And the texture is better than i expected. Feel so refresh after applying on face. I guess i will use up this soon, as i apply it whenever after i wash my face.

May: Nail color


Suddenly i dont want to change my nail color all the time, so i decided to choose a color which i would always use. And it has to be a more natural color. So Pink will be the one i go for. One of my favourite Pink nail color is the 007 Revlon ,but they dont produce this color anymore. So I have to search for another similar. OPI seems would be a good choice. But the bad things is that i cannot find OPI everywhere, and they dont have their counter in HK, there're only some nail beauty salon has OPI avaliable. And i dont really like to go to those nail salon to purchase their product. I always think if their product is expired or not.


Finally , i had found this in Joyce beauty, but they only have the classic collection available. And i cannot pick my desired pink, so i had decided to give a try on this. It's a dark pink or rose. Maybe it looks good on my fingertip.


The outcome is that, the color is too solid i would say. To me , OPI and Revlon are quite similar in the texture and the brush is the same too. Too Small! Some people may prefer a smaller brush because they can hv a more detailed painting. But not for me. I think small brush is hard to handle.


And now, i have to keep searching for my Pink. This bottle would be used occasionally. Maybe it's a good color for toe. Let me try try later..

May: Bag


I had been looking for a bag which is big enough to put all document in it for long time. However, i still cannot still find my dream bag. Finally ,i decided to buy this, although i dont really like that much, it seems meet all of my requirement , which is big enough , lamb leather and looks practical. I had found this from Seibu, which the sales ladies had gone to their store to find 3 colors of the bags to let me see see. Finally i decided to buy this. I will need this, even i feel it's a big heavy and looks just so so. I had tried another one, its big and not heavy to carry, able to put my documents in , but it's looks casual. So finally i had picked this one.






And now i become their member, can enjoy 15% discount when purchase. If anyone of you interested in their bags, can ask me for the member card number.

April: wedge sandal


I've been looking for a pair of wedge for long time, my target will be white or yellow. Just because it's the color of summer and white will be easier to match with all sorts of summer clothing. I had actually found one white wedge in Aeresoles few months ago, but i didnt bought it because summer was not yet come. and in order to save some money and also some space in my home. I planned to buy it later. However , when that day i went to their store, i couldn't find it. And they had no stocks!! So i keep searching for my pair of wedge. Until i found this in Zara and it's cheaper than my budget! :) This is not white or yellow in color. But i just like it! And it's a wedge sandal , will be good for my summer.


In fact i had no planning to buy any shoes from Zara , i just think their shoes must not be comfortable. But this one i found it quite ok when tried on. Actually this is my first item bought from Zara, cos i could not find any suitable clothes there even i had visited for many time. So each time just see only!

April: yoga attire


I bought this from a nike outlet in tung chung, the same day i bought my bag in the previous entry. The reason for me to buy this is i really wanted to go practicing yoga that day but i didnt have any yoga clothes or sports clothes in office. And i didnt want to go home to bring my clothes. So i just bought it. And because they were also discount items! Another very good budget buying!

April: Black dress




This is what i bought from a small boutique in the shopping mall near my home. I dont really like that much but as i had tried 2 of their black dress for quite a long time and found that the sales are quite helpful, however a bit pushy. OK, i need more black dress to wear for work in summer. And this one is quite OK for me. However, it looks a bit more mature to me! And maybe a bit short too. Cos it's upper knee for at least 2-3 inches! And a bit too see -thru too. Anyway, i had bought it already!
