shopping with Zalora Malaysia

So I shop online. A lot. Like really lots, mostly clothes, accessories and cosmetics. Recently I even got myself a tripod and a camera remote control online! In recent months I find myself frequenting this one fashion site, Zalora Malaysia and I thought I should share it with you.

And no, this is not a paid post, just an honest review besides me showing off my 2 favorite items I bought from Zalora hahahaha

I ordered a lot more but some were returned because they turned out larger than what was stated on the site_ one of the cons of online shopping... (=___= ) I do wish they have mentioned if certain brands cater for only plus size girls, that would probably saved the trouble. Thankfully, with Zalora, you can have the unworn items return within 30 days for no charges at all!

Anyway, here's my new tropical print skirt (hottest print of the season) from Zalora. Bought it from one of the brands available on the site, Ezra which is my favorite! Lotsa stuff I like from this brand~❤

My OOTD last Sunday when I met up with Aki~ No face shot 'cuz I looked horrible after a tiring day out (>__< )

Close up~

The photos were taken in a hurry since I was tired so when I checked there isn't any good shots of the skirt alone. This is the best I could get which is in focus.. If you see it closely, the skirt overlaps in the front and have frills~ Super like it for that ヽ(*´∀｀*)ﾉ✶ฺﾟ

Also bought an oversized, champagne pink sunglasses~ Forgot which brand I got this from already..

Stuffed it inside this translucent, lip-shaped pouch I got from purchasing this month's CLEO~ Just the perfect accessories/cosmetic bag!

So there, do you like what I got? What's your favorite personal hauls & brands from Zalora?

On a different note, here's my new underwater lomo I've purchased from Lazada which I received yesterday. Finally everything from my last order has arrived! Eager to test it out soon. So many new toys LOL ☆*:.｡. ヽ(≧▽≦)ﾉ .｡.:*☆

Till next time, chao~!

A Revlon ColorBurst Matte Balm in Showy Review & 3 Amazing Ways to UseIt!

Recently I'm obsessed with hot pink colored lipstick because I have been somewhat brainwashed after seeing several Japanese models in magazines adorning them. Have been checking out every single brands I know for lippies of this shades before deciding to buy this Revlon ColorBurst Matte Balm in Showy.

Besides reviewing this awesome balm, I will also be showing you the 3 awesome ways to use this Revlon Matte Balm! （⌒▽⌒）

 This Revlon Matte Balm is infused with a Triple Butter Complex of Shea, Mango and Coconut Butter that nourishes the lips. It has a pointy crayon tip which doesn't require sharpening and by twisting the silver cap, you can reveal more of it.

Here's how they turned up on me~

Somehow, only when I was editing the photos I realize the color didn't turn out as when I had applied it... It appeared more pinkish and lacking the original blue-ish tone? Not sure if it's from blotting some of the color off and reaction to my lip balm..

Here's the swatch on my hand and lip I took again which turns out closer to the real color.

Very vivid tone! So if you're all for bold colored lippies, this is definitely for you. Overall, I think this lip balm's pretty amazing but if there's one thing about this Revlon ColorBurst Matte Balm that irks me, it would be the peppermint scent! Wish they hadn't come with it...

That's all for the review part. Well I did mentioned earlier that I would show you how to use this balm in 3 different ways. I have shown you one_on my lips, so here's the other two.

Another way to use it is by applying it on the cheek as blusher~!

It turned up pretty subtle and almost natural. And oh, these photos I took at another time and used different makeup (*⌒∇⌒*)

And the third, as an EYELINER!! Yes, you read this correctly!

Thanks to the crayon-like tip, smooth and not-so-sticky texture of this matte balm, drawing on your lids can't get any easier.

Though with my thick double eyelids I find the color tends to get on the crease so I applied it in C-shape the same you do when applying eyeshadow~

And there! The color actually turned out right when I used this Revlon Matte Balm on my eyes.

I actually got my inspiration from Popteen April 2012 issue where Tsubasa Masuwaka wore this somewhat matching hot pink lipstick and eyeliner (scans from Ekiblog).

Sorta remembered it because the cover of the issue featuring Tsubasa is super kawaii (*´∀｀*)

Hope you enjoy the tips! ☆-(≥vO )
