One Of My Recent Favs...

I bought this dress on Revolve Clothing, which is very similar to Karmaloop and carries clothing from many many boutiques. I love the LA boutiques such as Gypsy 05, Rebel Yell and etc. The brand is called Blue Life and I have been wanting to get my hands on their latest pieces. The material is super comfortable, but a little see through. I should've worn a slip underneath. Haha.

Here is Blue Life's official site:

Game Review: Senran Kagura PSVita Review

This summary is not available. Please click here to view the post.

Products I Use To Remove Makeup

Removing your makeup thoroughly before you go to sleep is important because leftover traces of makeup can cause breakouts. I am not going to lie, I don't always remember to remove my makeup after I come home from a party or something. I normally start by wiping my foundation crap off my face with makeup removing towelettes. I use Pond's Original All Day Clean or Sephora Makeup Remover Wipes. Ponds is a few bucks cheaper and you can get them everywhere. 
 Ponds Original Clean (~$5 US at CVS and etc)
 
Sephora Express Cleaning Wipes ($9 US at Sephora)

I usually use these wipes on my face and eyelids, then I will use the following products:
1.) Wet my face and the brush on Clarisonic, then squirt a few pumps of Omorovicza cleansing milk onto the brush.
2.) Use your Clarisonic all over your face. Viola
3.) Cleanse the entire face with Diorsnow
4.) Exfoliate once or twice a week with Fresh Soyface Exfoliant

From left to right: 

1.) Diorsnow White Reveal Purifying Gentle Foam ($45 US)
Pricey for a cleanser and I did not notice any whitening effects. I don't think I will repurchase this product.

2.) Fresh Soy Exfoliator ($42 US)
It is worth its price tag because it does its job without feeling harsh on my skin. I have oily / combination skin.

3.) Clarisonic Plus ($225 - $235 US)
I like this more than Clarisonic Mia because it has a few speed settings. It does its job at cleansing my skin, but that is pretty much it. I only use this once a skin, or else my skin feels very dry.

4.) Omorovicza Cleansing Milk ($80 US)
Definitely pricey for a cleansing milk, but I love the way it makes my skin feel

Game Review: Fate Extra PSP (Incomplete)

My sister urged me to play this game a few weeks ago, so I purchased this game for $24.99 US on PSN. I am a huge RPG fan, so I was quite excited to try this game out. Fate extra shares a similar plot with an iphone game called Chaos Ring. RPG fans should definitely check out Chaos Ring. I hope I don't spoil anything, but the cool part is that you get to choose the gender of your character. I am currently stuck in week 3, so I will finish this review after I am done with the game. Training your character aka servant in the game is tedious.

First Review: Panasonic EH NA94 Nano Hair Care

I love this hair dry for its color (pink!!!) and how well this works on my damaged hair. This hair dryer costs close to $200 US on Amazon, which is quite expensive for a hair dryer. I should have taken a before and after picture, so you guys are able to see the difference. I definitely feel a difference in the texture.

Selling points (Copied and pasted from an ebay seller's description on this product):

"Utilizing the extremely small nanoe water particles, this product conditions your hair and prevents breakage while drying. The nanoe charged water particles draws moisture from the air to produce nano-sized moisture ions that penetrate hair better.

How is nanoe generated?
- Mist gets split by high voltage applied to water to generate and emit nanoe ions. They are very fine charged water molecules that are only 1/100 of steam, that cannot be seen with the naked eye.

What’s so great about nanoe?
- The water-holding capability of nanoe is about 1000 times higher than negative ions.
- Negatively charged nanoe is attracted to the hair which is positively charged most commonly.
This results in effectively penetrating moisture deep into the hair. At the same time, it helps bring back the natural Ph balance of the hair surface by making it slightly acidic and tightens cuticles. Tightened cuticles can harness stronger hair by better protecting it from brushings and UV ray damages.

3 Airflow Types:
Turbo with extra strong airflow
Dry with strong airflow
Set with gentle Airflow

4 Temperature Settings:
Hot: hot air
Hot and Cold Rhythm: alternating hot and cool air
Cold: cool air
Scalp: gentle warm air"

How I feel:
I tried out all temperature settings.  I noticed the hot air was not as hot as most hair dryers. I usually dry my hair with the max temperature available which might be one of the reasons why my hair is always dry. Bottom line is if you have the extra money, then you should give this a try.
Day 1 after using this hair dryer.

I have been eyeing on these bracelets simply because they are so gorgeous. Haha. I like the silver and pink one more!

First Blog Haha!

Mic check. Testing 1 2 3!!! Yay, this is my first blog entry. I went to Pandora in San Francisco a few days ago and look at this wonderful Hello Kitty room. Oh and please ignore the weird looking fake Hello Kitty in the left corner.

I finally got to dine at Benu. I have been dying to try Benu and Fifth Floor, and my waitress was super friendly. I felt like a fat ass for ordering two desserts, an appetizer and entree. The portions are tiny like expected from fine dining. The complimentary chocolates tasted mediocre, but whatever it is free. This drunk dude at the restaurant started saying, "This is living life..", it was a little comical.
