I. Is. Tired.

Sorry if I haven't been leaving some love on your posts, girls. I worked 14 hours (7am-9:15pm) on Veteran's Day Friday, 6 hours (9am-3pm) today on Saturday, and I will be working 10 hours (7am-5pm) on Sunday.


On top of that.... I have a calculus & chemistry exam on Monday!!! COOOOOOOOOOOOL HUH? (-___-)


This is very non-FOTD worthy... but due to stress and the rain, lately, I've just been wearing my MAC Studio Fix powder, AmazingCosmetics concealer, NARS Orgasm blush, NYX bronzer, and some mascara. And sometimes, when I feel naughty & wild... I might throw in some neutral brown eye shadows & eye liner. LOL

FOTD - Au Naturale!

Here is the look that I go when I am in the rush to leave to school or work. Not too much color, but just enough to hide the imperfections ;)

1. MAC Studio Fix Powder NC30
2. Peachy Blush by Coastal Scents
3. MAC Glamour Check! e/s
4. Wet n Wild Mega Eyes Creme Liner
5. NYX Sweetheart l/g

After 5 minutes... I am out!!! :)

excuusee me!

My apologies for the lack of FOTD! It's currently finals week at my university, and so I've been rocking the au naturale look.

What I'm wearing:

- Mabelline Age-Rewind (light/med) concealer

- MAC Studio Fix powder NC30

- CoverGirl's Lash Blast volume mascara

- ELF's blush/bronzer duo

- Rimmel's eyebrow pencil hazel

- Chapstick!

Pretty simple, right? I really just need something to cover up the dark circles and give some color back into my face since my skin looks pretty dull after all-nighters. But anyways! Here is what my day usually looks like:

I'm always either on campus or at home studying with my lychee green tea with lychee jelly! Mmm... my boyfriend & I are SOOO hooked on boba.... 10 years later LOL

MITSUWA

665 Paularino Avenue, 

Costa Mesa, CA 92626

(714) 557-6699 

I don't know if you guys have a Mitsuwa near your area, but if you guys do, check it out! It is my FAVORITE Japanese marketplace! You can get everything here. I mostly come here for lunch and do some skincare shopping. In the food court they have all types of yummy foods, and over at the market place there's various types of candies, dessert, make up... etc!

It's always so busy here!

All this for $6!

The crepe was mine!

And what did I see when I came home this weekend? My Sigma brushes came!

 At first my boyfriend was going to buy me the whole professional brush set, but I realized that I really didn't need all 15 of them. Plus my eyes were solely on the Sigmax ones anyhow! So I decided to pick up the Sigmax set, the F20, and as a free gift they sent me the pink duo fiber brush.

Love all, but hate the duo fiber one haha. Let me know if you guys want me to do a review!

FOTD #3

Went down to LA again for my friend's birthday. So sad I forgot to do a FOTD (or night)! I've been meaning to change up  night make up routine because I always do the typical brown/black & gray/black smokey eye! My next week (or next time I go out lol) challenge is to explore beyond neutral colors. Stay tuned!

Couple of photos of the night:

 

So school has been pretty overwhelming for me. I'm juggling between classes, work, and my internship, which is fine... until I realized that I need to pick up another internship in order to graduate! I might have to quit my job if I do because I don't know if I could handle all the stress.

I hope you guys all had an amazing weekend! Happy Monday, everyone!

FOTD #1

Here's a semi-old FOTD from a couple of days ago :x haha I meant to upload it earlier, but I got too caught up with the Christmas spirit! I'm very much a very neutral-color make up kind of girl, but I've been trying to explore beyond my comfort zone by trying new colors.

My first attempt at using purple :) Purple is known to bring out brown in your eyes, so I thought... why not?
