Universal Studio + Am I a Shopaholic?

Hi all!

Here comes my first post to this new blog! :D *Clap Clap*

Well today was a impromptu trip to USS as my mum's company is having a company trip and someone fell sick so i went to cover, means i get to go for FREE!! It comes in a package - USS+S.E.A+Trick Eye+The Wing Age+Lunch+Dinner! Totally awesome.

First lets talk of what's important for this blog. It's a BEAUTY Blog! Makeup!
Well, Singapore is a super humid country all year round, going to places that has much exposure to the sun, i would want as minimal as possible for my makeup.


After prep-ing my skin with toner, serum, moisturizer and sunblock (i shall talk about these in another post), I basically use a round fluffy brush to brush on ZA's Perfect Fit Two-Way Foundation in OC20 (23), using a sponge pad to pad on the areas that needs more coverage such as the undereye, pimples, scars etc.

Next I line my eyes with Maybeline's HyperSharp Liner in Black and wing it out slightly. Using a flat small brush, i dab on a little of the VOV Shine Shadow in no.1922 (bronze/copper) to give it a little tone.

For the brows, I used Arezia Eyebrow Powder in no.04. I used only the darker tone one to fill in the outer corners of the brows and whats remaining on the brush to lightly brush the rest of the brows. Brush used is the angle brush that came along with it.

Blusher, i used a blush brush with Silky Girl Blush Hour in the colour Nectar Blush 01. Lips i put on some tinted lip balm from Sasa in the colour 02 Strawberry. 

Below are the brushes that i used today. Since it's a simple look, i try to use as little brushes as possible - keep it simple :)


My make up lasted me for quite some time. Considering i was out since 8:15am and the day ended at 8pm! Sorry that these photos are not taken very well. But i reassure you i made no editing to my complexion.

I confess that I am not a photo taking lover (i shall change that soon - cultivate the love to take more photos) so here comes the little attempt i took today!

Start of the day! 10am

5pm while queuing up for a ride :)

Haha! as for my #OOTD, I wore a denim sleeveless top with denim shorts and a canvas shoe. 

This photo was taken at the new Trick Eye Museum. I only took this one as i think it's the nicest - dreamy. Though I agree that the art displays where nice and interesting, I kind of got turned of by the crowd and the small cramp space they have for the displays. As compared to the one at korea (where such museum originated from) I prefer the Korea one more.

Some other photos from the day:
My first visit to the S.E.A Aquarium

Lunch at Hard Rock Cafe :)
BBQ Pork Ribs - super tender and yummy!!!

Never forget the Starbucks Happy Hour Promotion!
Tiramisu and Strawberry Cheesecake Frappe!!!!

Well now you might be wondering why "Shopaholic" appeared in the title. Well i was thinking I might be suffering from mild Shopaholic. 

Just a little background, I have been jobless for the past month and have been surviving on my savings. (im only starting my part-time job in July). I am finishing up my last few practices for my practical driving test which is taking place end of June. I am also on dental and skin treatment. All these is costing me! So i have been trying to cut down on my expenditure :(

I realise i was able to restrain myself from doing online shopping however, if i every step out of house and come in contact with any shopping mall, i bound to have something home -.-" 
I cannot step out of the house!!! ARGH!!!!!

Anw so here's my purchases for today (USS means theres VIVO CITY!)

Sunglasses from ALDO at $29.90, White basic top and Grey loose top from UNIQLO at $14.90 & $7.90 respectively.

I hope that my sharing is helpful and interesting in someway or another to make you want to follow my future post. Do drop feedbacks and let me know where i can improve on :)

Till then, Smiles!
Charmaine :)
