"DIY" Lash Extension

Updates: Click here for another post of my DIY lash extension.

If you are lazy to put on fake lashes every time or layers of mascara, lash extension is definitely a great friend of yours to make your eyes look awesome.

This was done by Vivian in January.


I happened to see Madame Madeline's site and realized that it's possible to do a semi-permanent lash extension myself.
Unless you want it to be done perfectly nice, just find a professional one.
I just want to try it out myself. (im not so picky)

I went to nearby local drugstore to get ARDELL Duralash in Flare Medium Black, Lashfree Remover and Lashtite Adhesive in Dark. Total costs damage? Around $25.
A nice lash extension service costs from $60 to $120 and if you dislike it, you will have to pay another $10 to $20 for removal service. They have top quality lashes from Japan, Korea and Taiwan. Everything is about money.
Also, a good lash extension done by the professional using top grade medical adhesive can last up to 3 months with your proper care too. Yes, you need to have "perseverance" proper care.
Sounds like a big deal!



As a first timer, I did not expect it to be nice or simple. Just treating it a trial.
I prepared my own tweezers and a plastic card for the adhesive. (put a drop of adhesive on it)
I used this video below as a tutorial guide. It was a wonderful help!

The whole procedure was not really hard and not much hassle. Just about 10-12 individual lashes for each eye should be enough.
SEE BELOW! A natural looking 10mm lashes (about 10 individual lashes)




The adhesive and lashes are durable to last up to 4-6 weeks.
Though they are waterproof, adhesive weakens if contact with oily substances.
It is normal if your lashes come off after a while as lashes shed every 2 to 6 weeks (found it somewhere on the web)
Practice makes perfect, you may need to try a few times to get used to it.

Now, say bye to my mascara.

Never knew doing eyelash extension could be easy.

ps. i'm so vain!

Skin Whitening

Intensely sick of my skin discoloration that made me decided to start taking skin whitening supplements last week.
Basically, I just want a fairer skin tone especially my face. I need to get rid of one dark pigmentation on my cheek.
How I wish for something like a spot eraser and I can just erase the acne scars or marks on my face. (rubs)


My idol! I wish to be fair like nanako matsushima (i am using sekkisei products too)

*Ta-dah*
My Hakubi White C and Hakubi B. I got a complimentary pill box too!


Hakubi White C is for whitening effects and promotes active
skin re-generation to produce flawless skin

Hakubi B helps to achieve supple skin complexion. It is complement with Hakubi White C to produce smoother, fairer skin.

Yeah, I am one step closer to fairer skin. ♥

Just curious if anyone is taking skincare supplements that are worth to be credited?

Bad health


I was prescribed some medicine last week like sleep relaxant and muscle relaxant.
Haa, doctor said my shoulder muscles are stiff and tense causing pain at the back of my chest.
Also, I have to stop consuming caffeine, sour and spicy food to reduce my nausea.

I think my health is in a pretty bad shape. Time to relax, update later.


I ♥ YOU candies ;p

meh.

Etude house


Etude house skincare products <3

o2 white mask - It's not suitable for sensitive skin in my opinion, had an experience of some "burning" near the nostrils. *FLARES*

Don't think it's suitable for blemish/acne prone or sensitive skin, my question is will it "burn" the skin? It's better to test or try at the stores before committing to a full tub.
Instant whitening doesn't work this way as you know it sounds so impossible to whiten in just a short while, only to be done probably by injection or long-term intake of pills.
I would say this works more on brightening.
Brightening your face is important as dull skin makes you look bad and old. A tick for this!
It's easy and convenient to use in a shower as you can leave it for 2-3 mins after normal cleansing, and wash off during shower. Plus, I prefer leave-on mask than peel off type. Also, this is like a thick cream mask instead of gel type. So applying will be a little hard (haha, i mean troublesome)

blackhead final kit - Not really effective as compared to the advertisement poster, not all stubborn blackheads will raise to the surface for easy removal.
But maybe need very frequent usage as 1 or 2 times may not show obvious results.


Time to do face mask.

*giggles*
