Bottom's UP!

In Japan you can find false lashes everywhere!!! even at convenience stores; now that's what you call convenient!

Recently in North America, false lashes have become just as popular as it is in Japan (or Asia). Therefore you find a plethora of false lashes from almost every cosmetic brand you can think of! 

It's wonderful!

BUT what America hasn't quite adopted are BOTTOM false lashes.
NOW THESE ARE TRICKY! 
unlike upper lashes the bottom ones must look incredibly natural and fit perfectly with your eye shape or - truth be told, they look incredibly odd.

I think you can actually purchase bottom false lashes at Daiso but since the quality is not very good, they look straight up pretty awful. 

I think even in North America the False Lash brand called DOLLY WINK has become popular.....Well, they are unique because their lashes have a clear band with the hairs spread apart so it blends in with your own lashes, giving you a very natural volume! 

SO I got a pair and boy did it surprise me!!! Here are some pictures of what I purchased.


Here is what it looks like!!

top and bottom lashes from DOLLY WINK!

What kind of false lash brand do you like?

pretty finger nails? don't forget about your toes!

You know what summer is for me? some awesome PEDICURE TIME with my girls.

I went for my first pedicure of the summer, yaaa a bit late I know but in Japan it was difficult for me to find a decent priced pedicure.  humph....

anyway, I went to this place called Minoko Nail Studio with my best friend in Vancouver, I must rave how wonderful their service was! They did an awesome job with my toe nails but it was their genuine care on keeping us as returning clients that really got me happy! I am definitely going to go back!

I decided to get bright coral coloured nails, I didn't really take a picture but I thought I'd share the experience!

First and foremost it is super important to me that the place I get my nails done has their hygiene in check; I don't want no toe fungi. CHECK!
Second the chairs...super brand new and enough massage selection for a good hour. CHECK!
Oh !!!and yes they will start you a client file with your own files etc.
BUT Most importantly the girls that work their are super sweet!

I am advertising at my own will, no joke! SoOOOooOO anyone wanting a pedicure? check out Minaoko!

prices? $36 for a deluxe pedicure! worth every penny!




What colour are your toe nails?

Vitamin D to make YOU happy, Vitamin C to make your SKIN happy!

I have always had skin problems.
Especially when I entered my teens and my skin just broke out in pimples. As if high school didn't give you enough problems already! 

Now my skin is relatively zit free, but the scars remain....I don't know if most of you know but the best way to lessen the appearance of scars is through the cell turn over of the epidermis (skin). An effective way to stimulate this process is by using topical Vitamin C. Hence most of my products are Vitamin C based! 

Yesterday I bought this daily face lotion that was rated 10/10 by consumers on totalbeauty.com. I had to try it out because it was only $20. 

BODY SHOP VITAMIN C daily moisturiser with SPF 30

I had some doubts because in the past I bought a Vitamin E eye cream from Body Shop that did absolutely nothing, but that was when Body Shop hadn't been bought out by Estee Lauder...

RESULT: 
the reviews were RITE! seriously! IN ONE NIGHT my crazy bumpy textured skin on my cheek is smoother!!!!

YOU MUST TRY and tell me WHAT YOU THINK!!! 

I will update you guys after I try it for a week, then a month and see if it is worth replenishing, as well as other products within the Vitamin C line! I got a sample of the micro-dermabrasion so we will see how that works!
