Eraser Collection - very random

I like collecting things, the only reason why my room does not look like a junk yard is because i am very organized. So moving away from perfumes and lipsticks, lets blog about something weird!! My eraser collection!! I lived in Hong Kong for a few years....and you know those asian cutesy stuff that you find in chinatown? HK is loaded with those things, what you see in Chinatown Toronto is nothing compared what you can find in Asia... Im gonna split the collection into three parts cause i like my blogs short and dainty! The first part is about fooooood

Japanese dishes..tempura..sushi...ramen..


American fast food...hot dogs..burgers...


desserts...ice cream and cakes


Fruits and veggie.. orange, peach, banana, eggplant, pineapple, grapes, strawberry

LAVANILA Laboratories - Pure Vanilla Roller-ball (10ml/.32oz) Review

This is my favorite perfume of all time, natural, smell fantastic and it is good for you! 
I have always been a perfume lover, I think i have about 20 bottles so far.. but i started to realized that my body does not like perfume at all! A lot of them started to give me headaches and made me sneeze a lot, so i wont be buying anymore perfumes unless it is made out of natural ingredients only. Also i wanted to use natural products as often as i can, even though i know that i cant go 100% natural all the time... o.o"" well lets try for 80% then! 

Ok! so this is what you will see on one side of the purrrty box:

 =( ^-^ )=
   (       )o     I'm a bio major that hates chemistry...I'm so happy that you dont have to be a chemistry major to know whats in this perfume, its very straightforward. 



Notes: Madagascar vanilla, Freesia, Patchouli, Heliotrope, Tonka Bean
I know there are other notes in this perfume, but vanilla is the alpha queen here, she lets the other notes open the curtain for her but she does not let them steal her show! If you are a patchouli-phobia, no worries!! i cant smell any patchouli at all, so definitely give this perfume a try!  

Lasting power: it is one of the most long lasting perfume i own, easily 6-8 hours

Projection: oh you will smell this baby alright, so dont drown yourself in it for your lab partner or coworkers sakes 

A lot of people find that roller-ball leaks easily, but i have been travelling with this baby for an entire school year now, it is still working perfectly! pricing is reasonable too, i think this was about CAN$20

Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick - Red Revival #645

The infamous Red Revival! I bought this thinking that i would get the color the model was wearing in the ads, failllled D: It looks nothing like the shade she is wearing, so im a little disappointed! In person this shade is much brighter compared to how it was advertised, but it is still a gorgeous shade afterall.
The pigmentation is fantastic for a drugstore lippie, it is very creamy and easy to apply too. The packaging is alright..cheap clear red plastic with a long cap, but it is so bulky o.o i compared it to a MAC lipstick...





Apparently this shade is supposed to work with a lot of skin tones, and so far it looks pretty on everyone that I've seen. It is quite long wearing and leaves a little bit of stain on your lips after you take it off. 
The only problem i have with this lippie is the smell D:!!!! *dies* It smells so bad x.x which means i can never wear it, unless i wanna get a bad headache. It is supposed to smell like coconut if you get a good batch, so every time I go into a drugstore I take a sniff to see if this is true and ... it still gives me a headache >.<

Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick - Berry Queen

Berry Queen is a pinkish red color, pretty for a drugstore lippie! It is a bit brighter than Kat Von D's hellbent, which is another favorite of mine
It goes on nicely on the lips and its quite pigmented, the texture is very creamy. For 5 bucks im pretty happy with it! wears for about 4-5 hours for me
It does have a floral scent to it, but doesnt bother me much
