Daiso Makeup Swatches (Kleancolor eyeliner and lip gloss swatches and review!)

November 14, 2013

Hi guys! I haven’t done a product review or swatches in SO long! I’m going to try to do more of them, since I want to share some products I really like, and some I dislike, etc. etc. Anyway, I recently went to Daiso and bought a ton of random stuff, as always. I also bought a few eyeliners, so I decided to take some pictures and swatch them for anyone who is curious about the quality of Daiso products.

(Recent) Daiso Haul~ (armwarmers, socks, makeup, notebooks, hairbands)

November 13, 2013

Hi guys!! Haven’t updated for days. SCHOOL HAS BEEN STRESSING ME OUT ASJHDF

Anyways, the night before I took my SATS, my dad took me out to One Pot (Japanese hotpot) for dinner. We went to Daiso afterwards! It was my first time going in a couple of months. I thought I would die from deprival.

Here is a picture of the things I got!

I always buy or restock on a lot of things when I go to Daiso. This time I bought more arm warmers and socks!! (It’s getting colder wahh) I also bought two headbands, a beanie, and a neck warmer. Bridgette says it looks like I have a broken neck when I wear it. ^^”

I also bought a scrunchie just for fucks, a plastic container, two blank notebooks and a set of graph notebooks, eyebrow trimmers, a foldable comb, tissue packs, fake eyelashes, eyelash glue, three eyeliners, and a lipgloss.

This is how I store my arm warmers and fuzzy socks. Arm warmers are great for colder weather, especially since most of my cute shirts are either tank tops or short sleeves. I wake up really early to do homework, so I have to wear fuzzy socks or my feet freeze off and I end up gravitating back towards my bed.

Here is the makeup I bought! I’ve always bought fake eyelashes from Daiso, but recently I’ve been trying more of their new cosmetics. (In the past year they started carrying Kleancolor products.)

I will be doing a separate post swatching the eyeliners and the lipgloss!

Sunday Morning Crepes!

November 4, 2013

Came home from a date yesterday and Tiffany was at my house!!!
We ended up sleeping late, and we woke up and just lay around in bed for a couple of hours. We decided to make crepes!! So we were off to Safeway to buy whipped cream and strawberries.

JetPens Haul! + my current pencil case

October 31, 2013

I bought a few new Japanese pens recently! As usual, I ordered them from my favorite online Japanese stationary site: Jetpens!

www.jetspens.com

This site has really reasonable prices, and offers free shipping over $25! This year I’ve found myself way too busy to drive out to the Kinokuniya in Cupertino, Maido in San Jose, or Japantown (which has both Kinokuniya and Maido) in San Francisco, so I’ve had to look into buying things online more often.

Jetpens is super reliable and quick! I love the site so much that I wanted to spread the word for anyone looking to buy Japanese pens, pencils or other stationary!

All of this was roughly 30 dollars? I mainly wanted another Uniball Style-Fit Pen and refills, but I bought some other things I use as well to fill in the rest of the price needed for free shipping!

(From left to right) I bought

one Pentel Color C Felt tip marker
five Uniball Style-Fit individual ink refills (blue, red, green, orange, purple)
three way Kokuyo Beetle tip highlighter in yellow
three way Kokuyo Beetle tip highlighter in pink
Uniball style fit limited edition Majolica Majorca pen barrel
Ain polymer eraser
Flashcards
Petit-corre whiteout

As always, Jetpen had really fast delivery! I’m always happy with my ordering experience from there.

Here is a post on what was originally in my pencil case before the addition of these new pens!
