AUGUST 2014 FAVORITES

Hey! I was tagged by ce Stephanie from BeautyBucketeer.com to do August favorite on Instagram a while ago - seriously its not even that hard to do this but I kept procrastinating everytime I sat in front of my computer! 

So here's a recap on what I loved during this month : (hyperlinked to my reviews of the product if I did)

1. Innisfree's Long-Wear Cushion

It's compact, it's easy to use, its coverage are good, and they're have SPF 50 - no complains given. Recently I just hoped here and there, travelling and also spending nights not in my house (I mean, in the hotel, or my friend's house. ehem) and this is the answer to all of that. I've bought a refill (it didn't came with a refill like some other cushions) incase I'm running out of the cushion while I'm in Indonesia and nope, it's still going on great and I think I'm good for another month till I got to change the cushion. 

2. Biore Cleansing Oil Sheet

THESE are THE BEST makeup cleansing sheet that existed in this whole universe. Period. And you can buy this in Hypermart - local supermarket - and that's a big plus (Because my mom's paying, dropped a few of these to the cart and they're mine for free! MUAHAHA) ehem. Anyway, the sheets are definitely smaller that makeup removing sheets I used to use from Korean brands, but that doesn't mean they do less (they do MORE and definitely BETTER) 

3. Nature Republic Botanical Cushion Gradation Tint

Lately I'm pretty much obsessed with matte lip creams - and these are a great dupes for 3CE lip lacquer. Only they came in more neutral shades! 

4. Wet n Wild Eyeshadow Palette in Comfort Zone

I've used this in several tutorials(?) I made in the blog. Recently I've been loving the 'browbone' shade from the greenish line for the eyelid! It came of as a cool tone gray with ever so slightly green shade that pretty much suits everyone eyes!

5. Mamonde's Creamy Tint Color Balm Intense in 07

Great color for summer, instantly brighten up my face! Love it! 

6. 3CE's Pink Single Eyeshadow #Ann

I don't have anything similar to this in my eyeshadow collection, it's taupe with pink tone - it came off as light brown on the lid, but I don't know maybe I just loved the packaging so much that I brought it everywhere with me. Anyway, this color is a great all over lid color from days when I'm too lazy to do anything :p

And now! For the non-beauty favorite! There's one that got into the pic that is worth to mention - my bunny rings that I bought in Thai! It's actually too big for my finger (boo) but its cuteness is irresistible. 

And one more worth mentioning : 비정상회담 or translates as "Abnormal Summit" is a TV-show program from. you guess it, Korea! And I know probably ALL of you guys just heard of it by now because obviously it's not on a national channel, it's on a cable channel and there's no idol members whatsoever involved in this. 

To briefly explain this TV-Show, they're representatives of 11 countries, which are, probably not-coincidently, consists of all young and handsome men WITH A VERY, VERY GODLIKE KOREAN SPEAKING SKILL. (YES they're pure foreigner.) They came from various background and age, some are married some are students, and they share their views from a topic given by a Korean Representative - in which most of the time (always) ends with mouth-fight between the members. 

The topics given are mostly things that everyone can relate like love, family and jobs, and in the program you can see how cultural background can make a huge different in one's viewpoint. The G11 (that's how the representatives are called) are from Turkey, USA, Canada, Italy, China, Ghana, Japan, Australia, Belgium, France, and UK (later replaced with a representative from Germany). And you'll be shocked on HOW GOOD THEIR KOREAN ARE. Even the 'Korean' guests are in shocked whenever they came there. 

Anyway, it's a great TV-show and I'm sad that most of Korean lovers out there will probably couldn't watch it because of the language barrier.. If you're curious watch this one cuts from the episode :

I believe it's getting popular and popular in Korea, even the Kakao Talk stickers are available already! (They just had like 10 episodes only) and that's because the G11 members are not only good at voicing out their opinions, they're so FRIGGIN' HILARIOUS. And obviously I learned a lot from this program, not only my Korean language skill but also in my life as a whole (what the heck am I talking about)

OK that's it! I hoped you like my blabberish post and I'll see you soon! xx

(PS. I found out that someone is subbing "Abnormal Summit" on Daily Motion! Google search it!)
