Updated: My Usual Makeup Routine

I meant to do a post last Friday but there was a last minute decision to go to Busan for the weekend so I didn't have time.
I have an updated version of my usual makeup routine. I've been keeping this same routine for the past 2 weeks. It's getting SO hot here so I don't want my eyeshadow to melt while I'm teaching. I can't believe my freckles appear so well in the video (if you watch it in HD)! Plus I keep making funny faces and sticking my nostrils into the camera XD
Such a creepy still haha.


For those of you who didn't catch the products in the video here they are. I didn't realize that the shade/color names would be blurred.

Lunasol Control Makeup Base Moisture 01
Lunasol Modeling Water Liquid Foundation

Sana Concealer
Maquillage Liquid Concealer Natural
Lunasol Micro Finishing Powder N Natural Beige
Coffret D'or blush OR24
NYX Taupe and Suede
P&J Pencil Liner 01
MM Automatic Neo Liner BK911
Fairdrops mascara
Dejavu Mascara
I got my order from Bobodave! It got here super fast. I ordered on a Thursday, Bobodave got back to me with the shipping fee really quickly and bam, my package arrived the next Thursday.
I got the famous Taiwanese makeup sponges as seen on Nu Ren Wo Jiu Da(?) and Fuz's review and some masks. I'm SUCH a dumbass for getting the masks on Bobodave because Sasa sold them for a way cheaper price! The Kose Cosmeport Collagen masks went for about $10 on Sasa while Bobodave sold them for $20...argh! I've learned my lesson.. I really just wanted the sponges and thought to add the masks in the cart without thinking. The eye masks are Naris Up Wrinkle Eye Mask for about $11.
I'll let you know how they work out soon!

Here are a few pictures of the weekend. I took a 3hr train ride to Busan with Tim and a few friends. We rented a condo and altogether with the round trip train ticket, the total cost was 110,000won per person. Not a bad deal and look at the view we got from the 16th floor. I forgot which beach we stayed next to, I just know it's Hae-something.

I don't like soju, it tastes really bad, like turpentine or something. I can only take 1 shot of that nasty crap. Soju is super cheap, almost cheaper than bottled water. See my sad bottle of iced tea? Hehe.

Dinner by the beach. A big plate a sashimi which I didn't like, it was very fishy and chewy. We also had some raw shell fish which I also didn't like. It's not like the Japanese sashimi which tastes so much better.


There was a sand festival going on and I snapped a lot of pictures, but here's one. You can see a little boat on top of the whale. The 2 sand pieces connected to each other.

Thankq for all the followers!!!!!! It's almost contest time =D

I can't drink soju either, but you should drink beer or other alcohol instead of ice tea while everyone's having alcohol,lol.Yeh, that's not good having unfresh sashimi..i might get that Lunasol water foundation if i go back to taiwan.

Thanks for sharing abt sashimi in Korea. I never knew Korean sashimi was so different from Japanese sashimi.

It's Hae-un-dae. Nice view from the hotel!! I agree with you on Korean sashimi not being as soft as Japanese, but I love it nevertheless. I can't touch the raw creepy crawlies except for octopus that squirms on the plate after being chopped up!! haha..

Audrie said...

I hate soju too! Actually, I have all hard liquor haha.
