Who needs photoshop to have a glowy face?


Helloooooo!!! Just finished my mid semester exam yesterday and now I have many more assignments waiting for me to do T.T Actually I am so NOT IN THE MOOD to blog, but still..I feel guilty if I don't post something here once in a while.

WELL...Who needs photoshop to have a glowy face when you actually can use makeup products straight away to achieve that look? Imma gonna teach you the fastest way to make your face looks supple and glowy just like those Kpop stars =D 


Today this tutorial is just gonna focus on face makeup only instead of eye makeup. You can do this face makeup to college or university or work even if you don't feel like doing eye makeup on that day =) This face makeup is just to cheat people to think that you have a nice complexion =p 

And also, you don't have to follow the makeup products I used in the tutorial if you have something similar like mine ^^

Let's get started!!!

Make sure you apply moisturizer and toner before you apply your foundation/bb cream, do not apply makeup products straight away without apply your skincare product. If not your skin will becomes dry and caky after a while. 

Step 1:
After applied bb cream/foundation on the face, I use a small brush to mix "Foxy", "Bootycall" and "Verve" colour from Naked2 palette together and brush it on my nose bridge area.







Step 2: 
Mix the same three colours again as what I did in step 1 again and apply it on the cheek bone, forehead and chin. 




Step 3:
Then, I contour my nose by using "Tease" this colour from Naked2 palette.




You can see there is a very obvious changes on half of my nose on the left compare to the right one. It looks slimmer,smaller and SHARPER!! =D 




ALL DONE!!!!

I have to rush my assignments now =S Have a good day peeps!!!! Hope you guys learnt something in the post =D

DIY: 5 Minutes Off Shoulder Top


In today's post, I'm going to show you how to transform an old T-shirt to a feminine off shoulder top in just 5 minutes!



You will need: 
1)T-shirt
2) Chalk
3) Measuring Tape
4) Cloth Scissors
______________________________________________________________________________

1) Take measurement from the bottom of your neck to around 1 inch below your shoulder using a measuring tape. Mine is around 32cm.


2) Fold the T-shirt in half. 


3) Use the chalk to mark the centre of the T-shirt as shown. 


 
4) Divide the measurement that you took on the first step by 2. So mine will be 32/2=16cm.
Measure 16cm from the shoulderof the shirt to the middle as shown and make sure that the 16cm mark must be on the centre of the shirt.


5) Make a little cut across the seam as shown. 


6) Then, cut only on the top layer of the shirt towards the centre mark.


 7) Fold the flap over and use it as a template for the other half of the neckline. 


8) Cut a straight line across the bottom layer of the T-shirt



9) Cut away the seams of one the sleeves and the bottom of the T-shirt. Then, stretch out all the edges that you have cut.

10) Lastly, try it on and make any alterations needed and you'll have your very own DIY Off Shoulder Top! :D 

I hope you like this tutorial and let me know if it works out for you if you happen to try it out soon!
Have fun and good luck!

4 Ways to Wear Topshop Scallop Frill Vest

 So I was thinking of what to blog this morning and then it struck me that most girls ( I believe) constantly facing the same exact problem EVERY SINGLE DAY!

 Correct? :P
Hence, I've decided to come up with a series featuring ways to mix and math clothing of the season in hope of being able to help you guys up and share my fashion sense and style with all of you :)

So in today's post, I'm going to show you 4 ways of wearing Topshop Scallop Frill Vest.


I got this top earlier this year in Singapore when Vivian and Angeline came to visit me in Johor Bahru. I ABSOLUTELY ADORE the aztec prints on the top. And I love it that it's in burgundy! ( One of my favourite colours) Besides, the scallop frill details are so cute! :) The top is nicely fitted on the hips and the cutting is just nice, not too tight as well.


 1) Bermuda Shorts
Bermuda shorts are back on trend this fall! Besides being chic, the shorts are so comfy! Tuck the top in and wear them with a pair of wedges for a neat Sunday brunch look :)

Bermuda Shorts from Ralph Lauren. 

2) Blazer
Pair it with matching blazer and shorts for a more polished look for both work and play!

High Waisted Shorts from Love21 by Forever21
White Blazer from local boutique
Black Blazer from Cape Cod


3) Skater Skirt
Sweet & casual look for a romantic movie date with your boyfriend! What's more? It's college and work appropriate too! :)


 Floral Skater Skirt from Forever 21




4) Low Rise Jeans/Shorts
Wanted to show off some skin but crop top is too much for you? Pair the top with low rise jeans/shorts for that subtle yet sexy look. Wear them with a wide belt for that extra sexy touch!

Shorts from Padini 

Feel free to leave a comment or drop us an e-mail to tell us what would you expect for the coming posts! :)

Afternoon Tea @ Just Want Coffee The Garden

Hello! We're here at...


I believe all you Johor Bahru readers have heard or seen pictures about this cafe on Instagram or Facebook? :)

Just Want Coffee The Garden was previously a show house but has been renovated into a cafe at JP Perdana, Johor Bahru. It's one-of-a-kind concept has attracted a lot of people to visit this place even during weekdays! We got there around 5 minutes before the opening hour and there were already people queuing outside, crazy isn't it?

The decoration of the cafe sort of reminds me of Santorini, Greece. Okay maybe it's because of the colors.




We ordered Tiramisu, Strawberry Waffle and Tofu Cheesecake to share.

The Tiramisu is the best among the three. What makes it so special is that it has a layer of ice cream instead of the normal mascarpone cheese layer. The rich cocoa powder paired with the smooth ice-cream and the bitter yet aromatic coffee flavoured cake is simply delightful. Perfect for a hot afternoon with a nice cup of ice coffee :)

 Next up is the Strawberry Waffle. The waffle has a rich eggy flavour which I like and it comes with a scoop of strawberry ice-cream which is not the normal Nestle or Walls Ice-cream we normally had at other restaurants, whipped cream and some fresh strawberries.

This is the Tofu Cheesecake which I like the least. It has a weird taste that we don't even know how to describe it.

  • Overall, it's a so-so cafe with it's one of a kind concept of having it in a show house. I would recommend it to you to come and have a look if you haven't been here before.
  • Price of the food and beverages are at a steeper side, and you don't have a lot of choices to choose from. Sky juice is free of charge, but they did state that every customer must order a minimum of one beverage though. 
  • Be prepared to queue for at least 30 minutes to be seated as the tables are limited and the area is relatively small.

Easy French Nails Tutorial ♥

Hellooo there!! This is Angeline once again ^^ It is my turn to update this blog now so today I am gonna teach you guys an interesting tricks to do your french nails easily hehe

Things that you need to prepare before you start...

1) A base colour nail polish ( for example like mine is pastel purple)
2) A dark colour or white colour nail polish
3) A glitter colour nail polish (OPTIONAL)
4) Double eyelid tape

Well....Have you ever experience buying double eyelid tape that doesn't suits you? I DID!!! Like a lot of times until I get the right one for myself haha And I am pretty sure mostly all of you bought double eyelid tape before despite whether you really have the double eyelid not. If you don't have it, you can always use the cellophane tape to substitute it ^^ but you know it is really hard to cut the curve out LOL the double eyelid tape already have a nice curve shape for you to do your french nails later on!!!

Let's get started woooooo~~

Step 1:
Apply the base colour on your nails and wait it DRY!!! Like really really dry if not it will not be nice at the end. I use pastel purple nail polish from Etude house brand in this step. Make sure you apply the base colour on your nail for TWO TIMES to intensify your base colour.





Step 2:
Firstly, fold your double eyelid tape paper on the edge of a double eyelid tape so that it is easier for you to take out one double eyelid tape out from it.


Step 3:
Stick the double eyelid tape on your nail just like what I did in the photo. Remember to stick it properly and firm on the nails kay.


Step 3:
Apply a dark colour or white colour  nail polish on your nail tip slowly without crossing the whole double eyelid tape. Do not apply a thick nail polish on it because it will be very hard to dry, a thin layer will be more than enough. Just telling you that  I am using OPI Pink Flamenco in this step if you are curious about it.



Step 4:
After it dried, gently pull out the double eyelid tape from your nail. Then you are done ^^ Yayyyyyyy~~~ *claps claps*


And then, you will have something like this..... (My nail is not pretty because it is SHORT now ><'' )



ADDITIONAL STEP:
Apply glittery nail polish on every nails to make your nails BLING BLING like little diamonds on it hehe This step I am using OPI Pink yet Lavender this colour.







SOOOOOOO this is the outcome!!!! Looking cute right? >.< If I have longer nails, it will be better LOL




Lastly, hope you love this french nail tutorial!!!! Have a great day ahead loveliesss!!!



Angeline,
XOXO
