NYX: Fair Dust

As I've mentioned in the previous post, NYX-FAIR DUST is a very light shade of pink. It is barely noticeable. It has very tiny sparkles. It has a very clean & clear feeling to it. It is great for natural everyday look. The consistency is good and it dries pretty quickly. I highly recommend it. I got it on the mother's day sale at cherryculture.com

Fair Dust - USD $1.50

The brushes have very soft bristles as many have stated. I purposely picked the ones that were most purchased and have high ratings. The prices and quality are really good so I would definitely recommend their brushes, especially for newbies like myself. However, they come in individual pouches that have very strong plastic smell so defnitely wash them before use. After first wash, the bristles would not fall off on its own unless you purposely pull them off. Just by texture and softness, I like the stipple, powder and angled foundation brushes the most. Haven't really used them yet.

The eyeshadow palette was smaller than expected, well I guess it was my problem since the name already hinted "MINI". The colors were pretty complete for everyday use. It comes with a two headed applier.

The mineral eyeshadows are VERY shiny, I would say even to the point being metallic.  I didn't want to get colors that are too extreme so I watched many youtube videos before picking the colors. I ended up picking several colors that are very similiar. I am now waiting for one more eyeshadow that backordered, once I get it I would definitely do some comparing swatches =D

❤ Can You Hear My Heart ❤

OMG >.< Kim Jae Won~!!! His smile is soso cute..isn't his skin a bit too white, I want his skin so badly..LOLs..This is the first drama he's in after he's done with military service, I think!!?

Dong Joo's mom took him out of the country to recover from the hearing lost and his stepfather tookover the family business. Dong Joo came back 16 years later to get revenge. He pretends that he can still hear and that he lost his memory due to the accident. He wants to get back what rightfully belongs to his grandfather.

The female leading role, Bong Woo Ri, played by Hwang Jung Eum, is an intelligent woman who pretends to be dim-witted to protect her mentally handicapped stepfather. Although life is harsh, she never gives up.

Recent Happenings...

This have been the most awful week I've ever experienced. It is the first time that I've lost someone important in my life. It's very very sad that a friend of mine since high school have passed away in the beginning of the month due to bone cancer. I've been very depressed this passed weekend after attending her funeral. I was crying from beginning to end, the moment I walked in, the moment I saw her mom, when her mom and her friends shared their thoughts of her, when they played a slideshow of her whole life's pictures, when I see her for the last time before they closed the coffin and send her off for cremation. How could this have happen to someone I know!! I mean she's only 23, she should still have a whole life ahead of her. Before she left us, all she was scared of wasn't death but that her mom would be left behind. Her dad passed away 1-2 years ago also due to cancer. How is her mom suppose to take this. And it was right before mother's day too!!! I feel terrible that there's nothing much I can do for her. I haven't been able to keep in touch with her for 1 to 2 month and the next thing I know she's not with us anymore?? I was just thinking about her the night she left, about where we should hangout after I finish my midterms. Yet I found out about her death the next day from another friend. I didn't even get to pay her a visit when she's at the hospital. All I can do now is wish her the best in heaven with her father. I will never forget about her, my fellow schoolmate, team member and colleague. My dear dear friend. 

In memory of Katelyn Huang
