2015

There are not a lot of things to discuss about 2014. It has indeed been the most memorable and special year so far in my life. A lot of things happened and mostly changed my life and perspective of different things. And it makes me look forward to what 2015 will bring.

Hesitating about a resolution list, because I'll forget about it in a few weeks already. I'll still write one just for fun:
- Start working out (I am serious now).
- Open myself more for people. 
Lately, I have been isolating myself from people because nowadays, I can't handle people well.
- Strengthen my motivations.
- Control my behavior and attitude.
- Enjoy solidarity more. 
Contradicting resolution, but whatever.
- Use my blender regularly (especially in the summer!).
- Obtain the driving license!

No Game No Life





Personally, I am only interested in watching anime most of the time. I have tried to watch non-animated shows, but I always turn back to anime. That is why I've decided to write my opinions about anime I have watched. 
I completed No Game No Life for a long time now. It was recommended from my friend when I asked him to recommend me something. I have seen this anime top the popular anime list for quite a long time and my first impression was obviously: "Probably a crap anime." Fortunately, it proved my prejudice wrong. And I became hooked in the anime instantly. The romance gave me a screw-this-incest-romance, luckily, it was watchable. The plot was not unique, but interesting. Nonetheless, it is worth to give it a try. And finally, my rate is 8/10

3CE LIP COLOR #501 BELLA REVIEW


The color of the lip bullet on the picture does not complement the actual one. In real life, it is much darker, more on the purple side. 

I have always wanted to own and try 3CE's (Three Concept Eye) cosmetic products, especially their lipstick. Ever since I became obsessed of Stylenanda's shop and since CL2425 reviewed about it.
3CE has, indeed, very beautiful lipstick colors, which attracts me very easily. Finally, ordering my graduation dress from their shop, I think getting their makeup on my hands would not hurt.

The design of the lipstick is symmetric, luxurious at the same time it is kind of cheap. The pigmentation pays off pretty well and the color was somehow too light for my taste for a burgundy color. The texture glides on smoothly when applying on the lips. It has a satin finish, which is not matte at all. 
The longevity sucks. Literally. This is probably the first lipstick I have ever purchased with such a horrible staying power. I feel like even when you are just talking, the lipstick will gradually fade completely in 2 hours. It transfers easily on everything. That is why I should end this review with, it was not worth to try or buy the lipstick for $19.71. 

Rating: 1/5
Where to purchase: here (NOTE: Stylenanda has much better pictures on the lipstick than I, so please check the page out to see the details of the lipstick, if you want to).

3 CONCEPT EYES EYEBROW SHAPER IN #GRAY BROWN REVIEW


I have never come to the idea to fill my eyebrows since my eyebrows are pretty thick but I've come to my realization that filling them a bit would look better and more defined.
I stole Za Ever Brows from my sister because she bought a package which came with three pencils. The product literally sucked. The only good thing was the brush. I can't go out filling my eyebrows with Za's Ever brows since it didn't even last for 30 minutes. I might exaggerate right now but that's how bad the product is.

The eyebrow shaper is not retractable, you have to sharpen it with a makeup sharpener.


(I deeply apologize for my extremely hairy, disgusting skin and uncared facial hairs. I haven't done anything to my brows for over 2 weeks)

Back to the topic.
3CE eyebrow shaper in gray brown was the perfect colour for my eyebrows. It wasn't too dark nor too light, it looked natural if I don't overfill my eyebrows.
Judging the longevity is pretty difficult for me. I am a person who likes to touch my face a lot and especially around the eye area whoch includes the eyebrows.
I wore it on my prom and it actually still looked  quite decent at the end of the night, which was worn from 4PM to 2AM. To put this in your mind, the atmosphere on the dance floor was sweaty disgusting.




My conclusion based on the pictures is, the more you fill in and brush after filling your brows, the staying power will be better. I only drew with one stroke and rubbed more than 5 times until I filled in again. Did it three times and the result of staying power was getting better.

The product is not transfer free at all. Hugging someone with your face (weird expressed) will transfer. What I mean with the action is, if you're pressing your face on someone while hugging the person it will transfer on the person's face or clothes. The other conclusion is also 3CE eyebrow shaper is definitely not waterproof.
Other than that, the longevity is approved. It'll last fundamentally more the 8 hours. I can't give you the accurate number since I am not sure about it.

I paid $9.91 USD for 3CE Eyebrow Shaper. Let me tell you this, my review might sound a bit of the disadvantage side but the product is good according to the price.
Would I recommend the product? Yes, it is recommended for the price as an eyebrow pencil.
Repurchase? Yes, if I can't find as authentic color as this one.
