“The Korean Bun Craze”

Hi everyone !

Today, I am going to talk about something that is NOT new at all ! This is actually quiet old, to be honest … I’m talking about the “Korean bun” ! You know, this super but not so easy hairstyle sported by so many Korean celebs … It became so popular that many many youtubers made hundreads of tutorial about it !

IMO, there are no big secrets about this hairstyle : all you need is to have long hair (equal length is better) + this sponge bun maker… and that’s it ! xD LOL And it is even more easier if you have used your iron curler first !

THE RESULT :

This is one of my favourite video of this so called “Korean bun”, using a piece of wig (?) (The girl used to model for Bonagirl)

Asian makeup ?

Lately, I’ve been into asian makeup & techniques of applying makeup …

Here are some videos from the korean show Get it Beauty, hosted by Eugene :

Also, if you’re looking for a website that sells (mostly) asian cosmetic brands with  LOW and FIXED shipping fees, here is http://www.bonjourhk.com/ ! (and no, I was not asked to advertise for them ^^)

PROS : low prices and very large selection of brands

CONS : unfortunately, many brands are out of stock =’(

About hair & Gmarket again

During the past few weeks, I’ve been obsessed with anything about hair styling, and especially about how to make braids or buns.

(cr. picture : 윤짱의 패션블로그:-)♥ I think)

So learn some methods, the best to do is finding videos on youtube !

And to make a really nice bun (effortlessly of course!) here is the secret WEAPON ! A foamy bun maker (purchased on ebay, 3 loooong weeks to get here..)

And I have to say that i’m also tempted by short hairstyles ! That’s why I stated to watch the drama “You’re Beautiful” with Park Shin Hye who plays the role of a guy/girl … Her haircut looks really awesome ! See?

And now ! Here is what i bought on Gmarket ! <3

(very diifficult to apply with monolids =’( )

(when I ordered it, I did not even notice that it has a “plumping” effect… My lips are already big enough =( )

(I ordered this glue at Angeland, and really… It was a disappointment… When this is applied, the glue does not dry AT ALL ! I can’t even put makeup or anything on top..)

(this heated eyecurler from gmarket is on the other hand a veeeery good surprise ! With a good mascara, this works like a charm x3)

My bad experience with HONEYCOLOR.COM =(

Hi everyone !

First of all, I share to share with you guys my my very first BAD experience from a very popular circle lenses seller : HONEY COLOR !

Surprising, right ? Well, you have to know that I’ve already ordered several times from them before and I was completely satisfied but this last time was very confusing/stressful/disappointing.

So here’s how it went : I placed my order for 2 pairs of beaucon shimmer brown (2 different prescriptions) and automatically received a confirmation email. So I waited for their usual email saying that they shipped the lenses - normally 48h after I placed my order as it is said on their homepage… However, I waited like 5 days before I sent them a email - still nothing. After that 1st email, I sent them several other emails and messages through their website. This monologue lasted one month ! Consequently, I decided to open a dispute through paypal and 2 days after they refunded me. After a while, I went on their website and saw that all the Beaucon Shimmer in all their colors available were OUT OF STOCK …

After this whole thing, I then decided to order my lenses at CHARLENESHOP ! I also ordered several times form here and always 100% satisfied =) Plus, this time it was even faster than usual (have to wait 1 additionnal week because of Lunar new year, which wasn’t mentioned on the website though…) ! But: Shipping took only one week and a half ! (usually more or less 2 weeks)

Beaucon Vibrant Match Review

These are sooooooo much darker than expected ! Since I have single eyelids, I wanted something that “pops out” ! Something light, but not too light to avoid the “alien look” …  However, I must say that they are very comfortable and natural ! =)
