Urban Decay: Revolution Lipstick - Catfight

Tiny Box!

You guys are gonna get a whole bunch of lip product reviews lol!

Ashley spoiled me and gifted me one of the Urban Decay lipsticks and I love it!

I've only bought cheap lipsticks in the past and holy smokes do these blow them out of the water lol.

Catfight & Native (post coming later)

I know they aren't that expensive but they do have a luxurious feel (to me at least) Honestly I don't think I'd ever spend more than $25 on a lip product O_O unless I had the financial means :P lol. These are definitely worth the try if you are willing to spend $20+ on these babies..

The packaging on this product is so nice, it doesn't feel cheap in the hand or anything, the material is really lovely.

Vaavoom!

These are so pigmented and they stay on your lips for a long time! I haven't used it enough to get it to become a creamy texture yet but its starting to get there, just have to use it a few more times.

Glam up a lazy outfit lol

Feels matte on the lips so far but not drying. Super pigmented and easy to apply, these can stay on your lips for a long time even after eating/drinking (for me at least) and you don't really need to apply a lot to get a great color pay off, so these can last a long time.

 I would probably buy the whole collection O_O if I had the moneys lol. Definitely worth a try if you want to spoil yourself but don't want to spend a whole butt load of money. I think Sephora has a really good return policy my friend buys tons of products a month but ends up returning them after trying them (if she doesn't like it or thinks that the price isn't worth it) but read it before deciding on doing that :P

I also have a nude color one I haven't tried yet, so a post will come up for that.

Rimmel: Apocolips Lip Lacquer - 101 Celestial

101 Celestial

I figure I'll do these in parts since doing it all at once will take too long >.< lol. This is the total opposite of Big Bang, its a nice light pink color that's subtle but cute :)

Awkward smile lol

Very nice nude/pink color, its basically an enhancement of your lips. I find this one wears off a little more easily after eating/drinking but you only really need to apply one layer on the lips anyways to get the pigment on and you'd probably have to eat and drink a lot to get it off.

I had a cup of coffee out with my friends and it didn't wear off that much (wore off a little) and its not drying on my lips either.

What do you think? I would purchase again ($9! cdn O..O!!) totally worth trying at least!

Rimmel: Apocolips Lip Lacquer - 400 Big Bang

Big Bang

As soon as I saw the ad for these on Youtube I went out and got these lol. I've been waiting for these for a year, I saw a few youtubers and bloggers from the UK using these and I wanted to try them and I was so close to ordering them on ASOS but I'm glad that I didn't since they came out here :P

Christmas Party Time lol (and boobies lol)

ONE LAYER! So pigmented and surprisingly non-drying (at least for my lips) These are not kiss proof and can surprisingly survive a meal but may need a little bit of a touch up but its not that noticeable O_O and these aren't as glossy/shiny as you would think, they're quite matte.

Would I buy again? Hell yes! These are amazing! I love them, I think I've abandoned the cheap/affordable lipsticks for now and moved on to cheap/affordable lip glosses ^__^

Go pick them up! Go go go!

Cyber Monday Haul

Yay! So we actually came down to visit Ashley ^__^ but we have to leave early -___-' but at least I get to see Ashley (yay!) and I got my cyber monday stuff :D

Steve saw the pile of crap I ordered and he was like "wtf did you order?!" lol! its not that much its just big.

 All the packages!

I mainly ordered from Urban outfitters, Aritzia and I ordered one thing from Amazon.

Let's start with the big stuff: Urban Outfitters

Boots!

Originally I couldn't figure out which pair I wanted more this pair or the other one (below) but this one went on sale so of course I got these! (size 6)

Super comfortable and stylish! The heel is not too high and wide which makes it stable to walk in and none painful to be in after a few hours (I went shopping in these already, didn't break a sweat)

 Cut outs ^__^

These weren't on sale >.< but I got these because Urban Outfitters had a deal where if you spend $150 take $50 off so basically you are paying $100 so I totally grabbed these and the ones in my size sold out quickly too so I was quite lucky ^__^

Its going to be a while till I can wear these since its quite chilly out and it rains quite a bit where I am :P

 Some clothes

I got 2 tank tops, a pair of faux leather leggings and a pair of pajama pants that I need :P Loving all the purchases that I've made so far ^__^

Undies

Ordered a few pairs of underwear that were on sale and holy smokes they are such nice quality :P totally worth $2 each :P

Next Up: Aritzia!

I only got like 2 things from Aritzia only because there was a sale but it was still hella expensive >.<

 Only two tops :P

I got a large sweatshirt (I like the oversized look) and I got a lace t-shirt thing that I super love too <3

If you follow me on Instagram you would have seen me wear some of the things I purchased in an OOTD

The only thing I got from Amazon

I wanted a new phone case for my phone that had little pockets so I can slip my bus pass in it so I ordered this! Its super convenient

That's this year's Cyber Monday Haul, I actually prefer cyber Monday over black Friday only because I don't like to deal with crowds that much :P What did you guys purchase?

Here we go again!

So we've been going back and forth about going to the states. I got the Ok from Steve on Friday about us going today and then this morning his fucking mom decides (last minute) that she wants a bunch of shit done and she's so fucking stupid she can't do it her fucking self so she has to make Steve do it. And of course the little puppet is doing what it is told and he wants to leave early to deal with his mom's stupid bullshit.

She knew full well that we are leaving today, she could have mentioned this shit yesterday, or the day before. Nope, she has to spring it up last minute because I guess her little mind processed the fact that she was going to be alone for a few days and she couldn't handle that.

I mentioned in August that his mom was getting pissed off because I wanted to visit my sister and since she wanted to go shopping in the states we might as well go for a visit, she absolutely, unequivocally knew that I won't be able to see her until December and Steve promised me that we would come down now.

Steve and I argued through text messages about why we have to come back early for the simple errands she can do herself and he told me "you won't understand because its a cultural thing" HOW IS IT A CULTURAL THING? EVEN MY KOREAN FRIENDS AT SCHOOL TOLD ME THIS IS ABNORMAL!!!!! and I understand full well your mom is incapable of doing anything beneficial for your family now, its official. Its no wonder why his fathers side of the family absolutely hates her, she contributes nothing but reaps the rewards.

She leaves to Korea on Thursday (hope she gets murdered) and the plan was to stay at Ashley's place till Wednesday morning, like fuck we literally see his mom everyday, Steve does everything for her everyday, HE DID HER FUCKING HOMEWORK FOR HER YESTERDAY! And he went to the store to get a duplicate receipt for her laptop that she lost and did her fucking banking, while she did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!

How does she expect to care for geriatric patients when she can't even figure out youtube? or google?

Her view on homosexuality is absolutely horrid. She is extremely uneducated when it comes to homosexuality and sex. She said to me "Do all gay people have HIV?" "They're all mentally retarded right?" "they must have a mental condition" "does his dick not work?" "if you have anal sex you automatically get HIV right?" I was absolutely shocked when I heard these words spoken out of her mouth, she seriously flipped out when she found out Anderson Cooper was gay. When she told me all this I told Steve "your mom is absolutely ignorant when it comes to sex and homosexuality and we need to educate her" and he said to me "all Koreans think like that so whatever leave her alone" (<--WRONG!) and then she asks me to ask my homosexual friend's mom to help her get a job when she graduates, umm no fuck you, he owes you nothing especially after basically saying that he's mentally retarded.

**********

Every week since she started school its "amanda can you edit this for me?" or "can you write this for me?" and "can you read this and tell me what it means?" and she knows that I go to school full time for ACTUAL CREDITS THAT COUNT FOR SOMETHING not for some stupid program that finishes in 4 months with a practicum that is full of people who don't speak or write english well. Grades don't matter in this class she's taking, they're passing this girl that has failed every single exam that should be getting 20% So yeah I don't think it really matters if I edit her crap or not. If I don't do it, Steve ends up doing it.

So basically its like why even go to school if your not willing to do the work? She paid Steve $100 to do her 6 page project on elder abuse and I'm guessing that she didn't learn anything about that. She's like "I got an A" on random projects we did and its like no you didn't we did lol.

Basically we're leaving a day early now, which is fine I wanted to leave on Wednesday (the more time we can spend away from her the better) but a day early is better than nothing and really its not like Steve likes his mom at all, he even told me that. They don't get along, they barely talk to each other unless she wants him to do/give her something and they pretty much have nothing in common besides the fact that they are related. But he insists that he's the son and he has to do these things because its the Korean way and my friends at school (who are Korean) counter-argued that and said that they are the eldest sons and even their mothers don't do these things.

I have a feeling plans will change again real soon, will keep this updated as things progress throughout the day.

I hope to god Karma gets her.

and.. Christmas Is Ruined Again

Last year Steve's mom randomly decided that she wanted to come to Canada last minute while we were in the US visiting my sister for Christmas. So we had to leave early to basically open the fucking door for her because she didn't bother to give us a heads up.

THIS YEAR! We planned on going SINCE! They didn't let me go see my sister in July but then Steve's mom decides basically that her car broke down so that means that Steve has to pay for it, not her. So whatever he's getting from his paycheck (right before we were supposed to leave) is going into HER bank account ... yeah.. so now he's like "I can't afford to go now" and I'm like FUCK! WTF! because his dad gives his mom money and I'm very aware of how much money she has in her bank account but she's not willing to touch it so its kind of like wtf. She doesn't want us to visit for like 2 days wtf, you live with us! WE SEE YOU EVERY FUCKING DAY!

So now I have tons of packages sitting at Ashley's house waiting to be picked up and some I've been waiting for like almost a fucking month! >.< and I really want to get them and I really don't want to ask them to bring it up (I'm not going to, I really want to fucking go visit them) and its probably not going to be until the end of my fucking semester to go visit!

Grarrgh! Seriously year after year and this is the second time they did this to me, even if it isn't intentional but I think its selfish to ask your son to pay for your car when you have lots of money.

Fuck this family!

*UPDATE* Yeah Steve called his dad and he'll be paying for his mom's car so we can actually go down and visit! Yay!

Black Friday

Its that time of year... to splurge! lol

Let's see, school is officially over for the semester (all my finals are finished) my last class was the day before black friday lol so I got the chance to go out shopping ^__^ but I actually did not purchase that much O_O I did go nuts on Cyber Monday though LOL.

Pre-Black Friday Shopping:

I got a new cellphone!!

I had an Iphone 4 and it couldn't take pictures and was super glitchy and then Steve decided to buy a new phone, a Samsung S4 and he gave me his Iphone 4S and then I did the update on the phone and it started to get glitchy and slow.

Then Rogers had a good deal for the Galaxy Note 3 so I decided to bite the bullet and buy it ^__^ So glad I did! Has a super nice big screen, I was worried I wasn't going to like the size of it but you quickly get used to it.

Actual Black Friday:

Clearly Contacts! 

Well I needed glasses (technically not they were optional since my prescription is -0.25 LOL lowest prescription) I went to the Clearly Contacts store on Robson Street. I wanted to try on the glasses instead of just blindly purchasing them online and boy am I glad I did! lol

I wanted a big nerdy pair LOL that didn't make my face look rounder and fatter than it is lol. I got the R. Hardy 9030's in Black ^__^ I'm not sure if they ship to the US or international countries since its a Canadian company? Anyways I paid like $100 for these, so if your looking for affordable glasses check out the website.

 New Candles!

I got some candles last year from Bath and Body works that smelled like cinnamon (the candle is called holiday) and it lasted a long time (that's cause I don't light it that often) but I wanted something that didn't smell like candy so I decided to go for floral scents ^__^ plus these were on sale! 2 for $22

 New Coat!

I stopped by Top Shop to see what kind of deals they were offering on Black Friday and they had 50% off on outerwear! O..O!!! This coat was originally $160 and I paid $80 for it!! OMG! lol it was super lucky! ^__^ So happy because I was looking for a new coat for a long time and I did eye this coat before it went on sale, the only thing I don't like is that I was hoping it would be a little thicker but that's something I can live with.

 Men's Backpack

I stopped by H & M to see what they had on sale and I picked up this bag because I actually wanted this bag a few months ago (but I wanted the black one T_T but it was sold out) I didn't want to pay $40 for this bag at the time though. So thankfully this bag was on sale for $20 ^__^ but Steve ended up stealing this bag LOL

Thin long shirt

This was originally $30 at H & M and I got it for $15 and it was the last one too!

 Very Different

I didn't buy these shoes but I thought they were awesome! lol these weren't on sale either (don't think it was worth $80+) I wanna know who bought these! LOL cause I want to know how they styled this piece.

That was basically what I got on Black Friday, I got tired of carrying all that stuff after a while and we decided to call it a day. I did go nuts on Cyber Monday though LOL. But most of the stuff I ordered went or is going to Ashley's place so I have to go pick it up later this month. 

Stay Tuned!

3 Ballerina Tea

You will die

To commemorate the end of classes I'm going to give you a review of something interesting...

Every time I get my period I get constipated (TMI I know lol) and I was at the point where I was overly bloated and wearing some of my pants were uncomfortable so when I was at the Asian supermarket I saw this and decided to pick it up.

I think the last time I saw this product was when I was 12 years old? My mom picked it up and I always thought it was like a dieters tea or like a weight management tea but no, it will kill you lol.

 Packaging

On the packaging it does warn you of having to poo (a lot) for the first 1-2 days it didn't really say anything about being a constipation relieving tea.. I just remember Ashley taking it and having to poo a lot so I was like ok I'll try it (lol sorry Ash!) If you have digestion problems (like myself) then expect more stomach cramping than others.

When my friend is constipated he uses a giant medicinal bottle he buys from Wal-mart and it just seems like its bad for his body, its full of chemicals, he tells me it takes 10 minutes for it to work which doesn't sound healthy to me... this tea takes a few hours to work (for me it takes about 6 hours to work) but it varies between person to person so I guess its good because at least it gives you time to absorb some of the nutrients from the food you've eaten earlier.

Steeped for 5 minutes

It tastes earthy.. but not too bad, the package says that you can sweeten it with honey to make it taste better. It suggests on the package to steep this with 10 oz of water, but I sort of just steeped it in one cup of hot water lol so I guess it made it more potent than usual LOL (don't do what I do please lol)

Overall if you want to "cleanse" your body use this, as long as:

- Your not on your period
- Don't plan on having sex
- Make sure you are close to a toilet
- Don't have to work or go to school that day or the day after

Then yeah use this lol. I am pretty sure this is not an everyday tea, I think it would be too much to handle for your body. The benefit of this tea is that you feel better after you poop everything out (if you are constipated lol) and that this tea is super cheap I paid less than $5 for this tea and it comes with 19 bags of tea.

*this is not a weight loss method

November Updates 2013 (small haul)

YES! Classes are almost over! but then the final exams begin... lol

Not many food photos this month O_O lol

 I got this on sale! ^__^

I bought this at Top Shop! Originally the price was $84, My friend bought a very similar denim jacket for like $60 huhuhu... I got this for $24! and I got an additional 10% off because I'm a student ^__^ I bought it a few sizes bigger than me because I like the "boyfriend" fit. Plus I really like the light wash on this since its winter and everyone is wearing dark colors it creates a nice contrast for my outfits if I'm wearing dark clothes underneath.

 I've been eyeing these!

I saw these earlier in the month at H & M when I went shopping with my friend and I was pretty unsure about these so we went around trying to find something better. For some reason I've been really into platform shoes lol, They make me look so tall! and some don't have a horrible dip in them that make your feet hurt. 

The reason why I was unsure about these was because they're suede and I wanted a leather shoe but for like $50 it's a pretty good deal. I thought to myself "if they have my size then I'll go buy them" basically leaving it to fate lol, since the H & M in the downtown area is so busy I can barely find my size sometimes (shoe size 6-6.5) and these were the last ones! AND! I knew someone wanted these because they buried them waaaay in the back and covered it in clothes so no one can find them LOL but yeah I got them! WHAT NOW!? lol

 I've been wearing sparkle nails lately

Tis the season! Its basically the winter season! and I love how festive and sparkly all the decorations are so I've been wearing sparkle nails lately, I've gotten a few compliments from strangers on these -___-' lol.

 My lips are super dry!

I've graduated to a larger Vaseline jar lol. I don't think this is as effective as a super moisturizing chapstick lol but I was using this as a lip balm since I had that wind burn a while back and Vaseline healed that up but I find my lips aren't as moisturized >.<

 Been lovin this new Pokemon! lol

I got this as a gift from my friend. Basically he has the X version and he wanted the pokemon from this version LOL! But its a pretty addicting game, I think I beat the pokemon league after like a week of playing lol. Its different from the original game (red, blue, yellow, etc) but still familiar, you know?

Simple scented candles

Covers the stink in the room.. lol! I've been really enjoying vanilla scented things recently for some reason, it makes everything in the room smell good. I got this one at Ikea for like $2 lol and it lasts quite a while so I think its worth it plus it comes in a little glass, so extra cups! lol

 The weirdest smelling quiche

As soon as I heated this up and sniffed it, it smelled like fish O..O what was in it? Goat cheese, spinach and artichoke... lol I guess it was the smell of the cheese. It tasted alright.. lol

 Dayre

Trying to do small daily blog updates with this app add me at StylePop101, I have a few updates already and if you have your own blog its a nice and easy way to do updates everyday especially if you transit and need to kill time.

**********

I get to choose classes this coming week for the next semester, hopefully I'll get into the ones that I want >.< unlike last time...

Black friday is coming up! I hope to get some stuff for cyber monday ^__^ bwahaha I need new clothes.. lol

October 2013 Updates (better late than never)

Midterms are over now I just have to endure another month of classes till winter break and then I have a whole month of NOTHING!!!!!!!! Until January... lol. Its a little late for October updates but its not like anything really interesting is happening in my life right now lol, plus its the weekend and I have nothing better to do LOL

 So I'm not sure if you know what Hoddeok is but Steve tried to make it

He's never made it before (or anything lol) Its basically a pancake with stuff in the centre and..

HE DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO MIX ANYTHING! LOL!! Yeah he's never really cooked anything before.. turned out interesting.. lol. He ditched the fork and decided to just mix with his hands lol.

 I was torn between these shoes

I ended up purchasing neither of them lol because I wasn't sure which ones I wanted but I think I'll purchase them later. *the ones on the right were on sale so I ordered them online* ^__^

 Cheese Ramen!

I thought this was a trap lol but it ended up being good. When you mix the cheese in the soup it makes it slightly salty and creamy which is quite nice.

 Ashley came up for Canadian Thanksgiving and we went out for Dim Sum!!

Some of you may have saw this on my instagram. It took us forever to get to this place! It was a little pricy for what it was so probably not going to go back there lol but the food was alright.

 Ashley and her doggies! <3

 Forgot about taking a photo of the actual Thanksgiving dinner lol

but got a shot of the dessert

Pavlova and Pumpkin Pie? YES PLEASE!

 Went to the bakehouse for lunch with Ashley and her mother in law!

This place is AWESOME! Best baked goods ever!

 What I got a brie sandwich and potato and leek soup

 Ashley got a soup of some kind.. LOL I don't remember

 Any of you know what Soondae is?

Its stuffed pork intestine (I think..) The soup is pretty good and spicy, its mostly bean sprouts and cabbage and the soondae.

 Egg nog is out in stores now!! O_O

 

Samurai Sushi!

I heard so much about this place. Mainly because it has HUGE rolls! I could barely finish one and you can't really put the whole thing in your mouth unless you want to look like a monster lol.

Bubble waffle and Tom Yum noodle soup!

There's a place in Richmond where you pay like $10 and get this! Its a really good deal! Although the bubble waffle isn't so fantastic lol but its not terrible.

What me and Steve did for Halloween lol

Every year it seems like we just go to the mall and see a movie. He's not interested in going out with friends or whatever >.< we live boring lives...

Donkatsu!

You like breaded pork chops? There's a really good place in Coquitlam called Daeji, tons of options to put on your cutlet! We got a curry one and a spicy cheese one, I recommend the spicy cheese one :P

Breakfast for dinner!

When Steve and I started dating we would go to Denny's at like midnight, a lot. To the point where the employees started to recognize us lol. I got a chorizo omelette and I LOVE hashbrowns, its a breakfast must! Oh potatoes how do I live without you? lol

Had a double date dinner!

For some reason my boyfriend and his friends never went to Milestones restaurant before so we went! Its not very often I order a chicken dish (I only ordered this because it had mushrooms in it lol) but this was really good, slightly on the salty side. 

 

Pumpkins!

My dad went nuts in the summer and planted tons of fruit and vegetables and look how many pumpkins he grew! O_O There's way more than these too! My mom just put them on the stairs as a decorative touch since it was Halloween.

Shanghai food!

I wrote about this awkward dinner on my Dayre blog and on a previous post. The only upside to this dinner was that the food was delicious.

Yup! Mostly food pics lol, there's not much I am doing lately besides going to school and going out to eat :P But since Christmas is coming up I hope there's going to be more interesting things happening!

Talk to you soon!
