Guess who's got Angelina Jolie's lips? *Drum roll* Our little girl!!! I had my check up today and when my doc was taking a picture of my little girl for me, we caught her pouty lips this time round! My doc was all, "You're daughter has Angelina's lips! Pouty!" and you know what? It is just like her Mummy! :D Looks like Daddy is going to have a tough time with boys in the future! Heh.
Check out her pout!
So i was initially freaking out when i had to take my weight at the Docs, only because i put on 2kilos in a span of 3 weeks! That is ALOT to me! But then after my check up, my doc told me, it's not so much me this time round, it's actually our little girl who had packed on the pounds. Last check up, she was tall and slim, and doc told me to eat more so that she puts on more weight, so i'm really glad that she's starting to fatten up now! She weighed about 1.4kilos and today she weighs 2.1kilos!! So my doc reckons, by the time i finally pop, she'll weigh about 3.6kilos, boy is that one heavy baby! So long as she's heathy, i have no complains! (No wonder my back has been aching so bad lately!!)
Which reminds me, a friend of mine told me that MotherCare is having a mega sale down at Harbour Front! I SO WANT TO GO! So here's some info for you!
I've told Sham about it, so now i can't wait till we can go too! Ooh! The sale couldn't have come at a better time! Do check out their webpage for more info, MotherCare SG
Last week, i hauled a little during a flea i was having for my online shop. I've a new found love for fleas and their cheap stuffs! So i picked up some cosmetics, as everyone should know, i'm a sucker for! It just so happen to be from the booth next to mine which was selling cosmetics from $6-$10 only! They carried brands like Maybelline, Nyx etc. I don't know what has gotten into me, but lately i've come to realise that i'm SO into lipsticks. I never was one into it, and now i suddenly am! Which is so weird! Here's my loot anyways!
I love Nyx products! I bought my first Nyx lipstick last year, Circe which is one of their popular shades for a nude lip followed by a nice pinky shade, B52 which i think is amazing. I love the texture of their lippies which are creamy! Only that they don't last long on your lips, but hey, for $6 a lipstick, i should not be complaining! So at the flea, i picked up Doll and Terra Cotta.
Doll is on the pinky side, with a sort of raspberry colour undertone which is great for my skin tone! (I'm more to the yellow undertone so anything on the pinkier side, is good for me.) I love the colour and it reminds me of Spring for some reason. Perhaps its a 'Spring' kinda colour? As for Terra Cotta, it's not usually a colour i would pick out as it's more to the brown shade. It's a deep shade of reddish-brown, but sometimes it comes across as a little orangey peachy if you know what i mean. For my skin tone, i find Terra Cotta is a little too deep to wear in the day, but would be a perfect shade for the evening or night wear.
I also picked up Maybelline's Instant Age Rewind liquid foundation which was going at $10 which i have yet to try. It's such a dewy colour, my shade is Natural Ivory Light 3 if anyone was wondering. Like i said above, my skin is more to the yellow undertone, so i try and pick out items that are dewy and more on the pinkier tone so that i look 'livelier'. Both my mother and Sham have commented on how pale my skin is, i blame it on my quarter Chinese blood. I've tested the foundation on my hand and it blends real well leaving my skin smooth. I'll update more when i use it properly. :)
The other Maybelline item is also in their Instant Age Rewind range, but is their Cream Compact Foundation. I tried this today when i went for my check up at the Docs, i LOVE it! I was a little worried that it might come out cakey, but it didn't. It blended well into my skin, and i had such a flawless finish. I didn't even have to use concealer for my under eyes! And what they say is so true, a little goes a long way. Oh, yes, both items are Spf18 each!
Oh yes, about 2 weeks ago, some new stock i ordered into my online shop arrived, and i fell inlove with W7's Mega Matte Lips. W7 is a drug store brand in the UK, probably sold in Boots. I decided to buy myself 3 out of their 5 shades. Yes i said BUY. I still have to pay for the items i want, even if it is from my own 'shop' because, well, that's business. So as i was saying, their Mega Matte Lips comes in little tubes, like lip glosses, but once you apply it, it dries matte on your lips! (Just as the name suggests!) It also lasts really long, so touch ups don't come often! I love how natural the colour looks, only problem is that i have naturally dry lips, so this makes it extra dry. But that's the price you pay for beauty!
There is 2 other shades, Danger Red and Nude. So if anyone is interested, check it out here Crimson Rose - W7 Cosmetics
Oh yes, i also picked up some new OPI lacquers. They were just $12 at the flea. Such a steal! And one booth even sold me the first for $12, second for $10 and third for $8! I also picked up the much raved aout Sache Vite top coat which is the fastest drying topcoat. I EFFING LOVE IT!! Best buy ever! Plus, i'm so impatient when it comes to waiting for my nails to try, so this is like the perfect thing for me and impatient people alike.
Such pretty colours eh? So i ended up painting this on my nails last Friday, using OPI's It's Totally Fort Worth It as a base and a plain black for the patterns. It's a little messy, only because i got lazy half way. LOL
That's all i have for today. I'll leave you with a picture of our 'son', GumGum the cat who was nicely basking in the sun earlier today. Thanks for reading! :):)
