Spring shopping hauls~!

In this post, I'm just gonna share with you some of my hauls which I've gotten during last weekend's shopping trip and all the other stuff I've gotten online or offline in the past 3 months. I've actually shopped a whole lot more but these are the stuff I haven't posted online yet.

This year I actually wanted to do a lil' wardrobe makeover for myself so I took a little more extra effort in shopping for clothes and accessories. So walah~ Mah hauls for spring~

I still can't do without my casual tees~ Got them last 2 weekends ago from Mid Valley.



These days, I'm very into knit tops.


Here's something I got during Forever21 sales~

The beaded bangle looks really boho and chic, don't you think so?

Fell in love with this necklace at first sight! I especially LOVE  the leopard print and the tiny ribbons details at the side!


I'm loving my new accessories collection here~

And not forgetting this super gyaru heels!!! It's in a pretty coral candy color~*swoon*


These days I'm really into pumps with heels. It's my first time buying platform heels online. They fit nicely but I find them really heavy (,>.<,'')


Totally worth it anyway~!

Spent so much already. Not going to do any shopping this month and just wait for other hauls to arrive. This month I'll be busy with exams so my posts will be far and in between ,(T^T,)


I promise to come up with more reviews, tutorials and stuff when I get some time off studying and after exam so do keep in touch with me, okay?

Biore Cleansing Oil Review

Just got myself a new makeup remover last weekend at SASA(again!) for RM23. Wanted to try this for a while now since a lot of magazine been raving about how good this is. I got this after I finished using Loreal gentle eye and lips makeup remover.

Biore Oil-based makeup remover



Description at the back~



Here's the suggested usage method:


1. Pumped a proper amount of cleansing oil onto palm and gently massage onto face to dissolve makeup

2. Rinse thoroughly with water when makeup and facial dirt has dissolved.

~♠~

Tested it on my hand since I didn't want to wash my face yet(I had my serum and moisturizer on)


On my hand: concealer+foundation



Pumped one drop of this cleansing oil onto my hand and gently massaged it with my finger~ The makeup dissolves rather easily~ (,OvO,)



Right after rinsing it off with water~




~♠~

What I think about it?


Well I love the strong apple+berry-ish scent and how it really easily dissolves makeup. On the other hand, I find it really impossible to avoid getting this product into your eyes when removing eye makeup. It stings like crazy when it does!!

So I used a cotton pad and pumped this remover and then place the cotton pad over my eyes for a couple of second and then wipe gently to remove the rest of the mascara. That did the trick.

Another thing I don't like about this remover is that I would need to rinse them off after the makeup's dissolved. I suppose this remover's meant to be used at the end of the day when you wanna get rid of all your makeup and NOT when you want to fix your makeup. Imagine how many times you gotta reapply your entire makeup(Gahhh!).


My rating:  2.5/5


Well, I actually prefer a makeup remover that doesn't need rinsing after usage and I prefer to use a cotton pad to remove makeup and not massaging them onto my face, so yeah.
