Quiet times/my inner child

I just got this doll in the weekends because i think it looks like me (yes, it looks like ME) and also i love dolls. I will always be a lil girl inside.

I think this doll is a great xmas pressie for girls. Barbie are kinda old and bratz are too slutty. I think this doll takes the benefits of both barbie and bratz; it has a big head (bratz), appropriate amt of make up (barbie), appropriate dress for a lil girl (barbie), huge eyes (bratz), innocent (barbie).

this particular one is 15 dollars from target and its called Moxie Girls.

Holiday gift sets

I got this Estee Lauder Coach set a few weeks ago from Myer, i believe the price is around $130. I think all the cosmetics inside are very good quality but the travel brushes are total rubbish.
Here are the swatches of the eyeshadow, lip stick, lip gloss and blush.


I majoring got the set because i love the Coach bag, but after purchasing and trying everything out i feel that this def worth every penny.

I think the next gift set i wanna get my hands on are the Benefits gift set. I have never owned a Benefit item so it will be a new experience.

DIY Toner

Sorry that i have not been updating here as much as i want to, my absence was due to the lack of (or no) internet in the past few weeks. I'm surprised i actually survived.

Well here today is a DIY toner that i have been using for 2 weeks and is quiet happy with. I have read this up on a youtuber's blog but i cant seem to remember (thus this is not my invention).


Need:

1 Small glass bottle

1 lemon

1 aloe plant leaf

Green tea

Rice Wine (SaaKee)

1. Wash the lemon and aloe leaf.

2. Chop the outer layer of aloe (need the inner meat)

3. Chop the lemon in slices


4. Prepare green tea in warm water

5. Put the meat of aloe, lemon juice and piece, green tea, and 2 tea spoon of saakee into the glass bottle.

6. Store in fridge

Put in as much aloe and lemon as desired, test according to skin needs.

The mixture can be stored for a few months due to the Saakee, however I think is best to change the mixture every month.

When use, pour the mixture onto a cotton pad and apply same as toner.
