Maybelline Dream Mousse Blush in Peach Satin

I know this is not new, but is something I really love recently. I still like my NARS blush, but ever since I discovered Maybelline's Dream Mousse Blush, I have been using it every single time when I have makeup on.

Nail of the Day: Naked

Today's Nail of the day:

Ta da...naked nails.... ha ha ha
don't forget to let them breathe...

Healthy breakfast

Black's healthy breakfast ^-^ Rice + egg + carrots + broccoli
She finished almost all of them + milk + juice

Yesterday + Estée Lauder Double Wear Light

Yesterday I got my Estée Lauder Double Wear Light in intensity 2.0 ($35.00+tax). At first I just wanted to get a color match, but since they have this 'Free 7-pc. Gift with $35 Estée Lauder purchase' promotion going on (in Macy's) so I got this foundation with something extra ha ha ha 




Here is my 7-pc. gift: 
- Mascara (good travel size, but this is not waterproof:<)
- Advanced Night Repair (I love this serum) 
- Creme Cleanser (good for travel)
- Parfum (ok)
- Old Lady cosmetic bag (ha ha but good for traveling/organizing things)
- Lipstick in 46 Barely Nude Creme (I really wish they can change the smell)
- Eye Shadow palette

[ 9-21-2011 Updated ] I'm glad I got intensity 2.0, 1.0 is definitely too light for me, but I was afraid that 2.0 might be too dark, I thought I was between 1.0 & 2.0, maybe a bit more 2.0. Today I tried it on my face and was very happy it fits my skin tone ^-^ You can't see anything once the foundation is blended to the skin. It has a very natural and a bit of matte finish that I did not even need setting powder... 



Black (aka 黑色)with her lovely chocolate milk
 I'm loving it... ^-^
trying to play like the girl in the back...
Fried Radish cake for dinner ^-^ (蘿蔔糕, 菜頭粿)


DISCLAIMER: I paid for this Maybelline Dream Mousse Blush with my own money. I am not being paid or endorsed by any company for the products used/shown/mentioned. All thoughts expressed are my honest opinion.

How to: Make Your Own Deep Conditioner

Today I fed my hair with yummy avocado hair mask. So I thought I'd share this recipe here...I discovered this Avocado hair mask recipe from missglamorazzi on YouTube not long ago. I tried it and liked this avocado hair mask (Hello missglamorazzi, if you see this post, thanks ^-^!) I think this is my 4th or 5th time using this hair mask recipe at home and I have to say.... it really works!!!  This deep conditioner made my hair healthier and shinier.

Dinner @ Outback Steakhouse

Last night we went to Outback for dinner ♥

 Bread
 6 oz. Sirloin w/ fries
 Bloomin' Burger w/ veggies on the side
 Cutie w/ her signature bib^-^ ha ha ha
 Baby & me ^-^ ♥

Black (aka 黑色)ate a little bit more than before (western-meal-wise). She ate a lot of bread, some fries, juice, milk, 1 bite of broccoli, 1 bite of ground beef from the burger :D and that's pretty much it! I don't think she enjoy eating these that much... When we were at home that night (like 2 hours later), she had another bowl of Chinese style meal: Rice, tofu, fish, white radish, a little bit of chicken, a little bit of pork, and a bottle of warm milk....  I think this should be her "real dinner" ha ha ha ha ha

-The End-

Elmo Bandages!

I have a $2 coupon that will expire this Friday so I went to the store and got this Sesame Street bandages. It was actually Black (黑色)'s idea because she saw it first and shouted "Elmo~~~~~~~~!!!". Since we are running out of bandages at home so I got this for her ^-^ ha ha ha aren't they super super cute????? Even I want to use them....ha ha ha 



And I also got some Goldfish for her, I think this is her first time eating Goldfish.... and as always.....she didn't eat much.....for new things +_+  


NOTE: After I put Elmo bandage on her lower leg (she has a scratch), she started crying +_+ she thought the bandage will "hurt"... and she's afraid to move her leg ... oh...I made you cry.... *_* so I moved the bandage to her wrist so she can walk ... 





Neutrogena® Naturals Fresh Cleansing + Makeup Remover

Today I'd like to share my new favorite facial cleanser/makeup remover. It is the Neutrogena® Naturals Fresh Cleansing + Makeup Remover The main reason I picked this one up was because of the packaging as well as the product descriptions on the bottle. I thought it might work on my sensitive skin because of its natural ingredients.

Body Lotions from Bath & Body Works

Today I'd share some body lotions I recently got from Bath & Body Works: 
1.) Paris Amour
2.) Forever Sunshine
3.) Cozy Autumn Vanilla

1.) Paris Amour
This is their new scent when I purchased so I thought I'd give it a try since a 2 oz. bottle only costs $1. When I tried this in on my hand in the store, the scent was pretty, but I was worried that the smell would be a more mature lady-like smell +_+ I was right, this sharp floral scent is way too strong for me especially when I put it on my body. So I think this would be good for small amount or good for travel :)
  • Smooth over body to moisturize and lightly fragrance skin with our exclusive Paris Amour, a dreamy blend of French tulips, apple blossoms and sparkling pink champagne, inspired by a romantic stroll through the streets of Paris
  • Key Fragrance Notes: French Tulips, Apple Blossoms, and Pink Champagne



2.) Forever Sunshine
This was the one I really wanted to get when I was in the store and I also checked the reviews on their website, the review . The smell is fresh, clean and summer-like, very comfortable pretty smell. But when I put it on after shower, I felt like I wanted to shower again because of the scent became so strong +_+ !!! ... it smells so good on the bottle and :( maybe I will only use it on my hands... 
  

  • Our exclusive Forever Sunshine captures the romance of warm days that linger into cool autumn. Experience this fragrance whenever you crave the essence of summer
  • Key fragrance notes: golden apricot, pink peonies and a hint of praline



3.) Cozy Autumn Vanilla

This is the best out of these 3 body lotions!!! I am not a big fan of vanilla scent, but when I tried this in the store the smell was pretty cozy, just like the name^^ ha ha .. so I gave it a try and...I really really really like it ^-^ this scent is not strong after putting on body, definitely will buy it again :D the smell is very very cozy, and I am happy I got this one. 
  • Our exclusive Cozy Autumn Vanilla is a warm blend of fresh vanilla beans, soft caramel and comforting creamy musk
