Review: Daiso Cosmetics

Hi all, 

Been awhile since I last blogged! I went to Daiso yesterday and found some goodies that I want to review! 

From Back Row L -R: False Lashes (Brown Mix 03), Princess Liquid Eyeliner, Black Gel Liner
Front Row: Bright Light Lipgross

Brown Mix 03 False Lashes


This pair of false lashes reminds me so much of the ever popular Dolly Wink Eyelashes no 10 (Sweet Cat)


The lash band is transparent and the lash itself is very soft and feather light. I haven't got the chance to use this lovely pair of eyelash yet. Once I do I will do another update! 


Princess Liquid Eyeliner


Ok. The name of this eyeliner is rather cheesy and packaging wise is very straight forward. Very opaque black and glides on very easily. BUT it is not water proof and not smudge proof though. Reviews and swatches of this eyeliner can be found at the end of this post. 


Black Gel Liner

 To be honest, I am not a big fan of gel eyeliners because they tend to smudge pretty bad on my eyelids. BUT I was sooo attracted by the beautiful pink crystal design that I just had to get it. Plus I kinda needed another eyeliner brush. 

I thought this is just another plain black gel liner but this gel liner comes with a surprise! It is actually packed with tiny little glitters! Somehow my camera is unable to capture the tiny glitters in the gel liners both in the pot and on my hands. It looks really pretty in real life! For reviews and swatches, please scroll to the end. 


Bright Light Lipgloss 





 This unique lipgloss comes with a small mirror at the back and lights! Yes you heard me right. LIGHT! The light automatically switches on when you remove the applicator from the bottle. I don't know any use for this light.. Maybe when you're clubbing or drinking at some dark place and wants to fix your lipgloss? Then again who can see if your lipgloss looks good in the dark? Haha! All in all, this is the most high tech and "thoughtful" lipgloss I've ever seen. Mirror, Lights and beautiful color. I will definitely buy again! 


Swatches on Princess Eyeliner and Gel eyeliner

Top row: Princess Eyeliner
Middle row: Gel Liner x 1 swatch
Bottom row: Gel Liner x 2 swatches


Testing if the formula is waterproof. 


SADLY. IT IS NOT. After I sprayed some water on, one light rub was enough to cleanly remove Princess Eyeliner and smudge the Gel Liners as well. Remember girls, it IS a $2 dollar product. If it can hold up so well, who would want to buy drugstore or even branded eyeliner at 20 times the price? 


After more rubbing and water, this is what's left of the eyeliners. So DO NOT wear this eyeliner to the beach or if you're gonna be under the sun, or else you gonna look you cry black tears all day long! 


Verdicts: 

Eyelashes - For THAT awesome quality at $2 I will definitely stock up the next time I visit Daiso

Princess Eyeliner - Very opaque black and glides on easily. But it is not waterproof or smudge proof. Will probably give it a miss.

Gel Liner - Pretty gel liner with tiny glitters. But.. this gel liner proves again that gel liner ALWAYS smudges.
So no go for me! 

Bright Light Lipgloss - Beautiful colour plus so high tech. Haha. Will buy again! 


Thanks for reading my humble blog!  Till next time!

Popin' Cookin! (Donuts)

Hi all, 


I've been deeply amused by this new "toy" I found online! 



Popin' Cookin! Happy Kitchen Donuts is a Do-IT-Yourself Donut making kit which is mainly made up of sugar and artificial flavors. Affordable at only $10.90 online and at Toy Factories, I found one at offer at $6.90. So I HAD to try it for myself! Happy Kitchen Donut is safe to eat and surprisingly the process of making the donuts are quite fun as well! I was very pleased with how the end products turned out.

TADAH! My miniature Donut snacks! 

I had loads of fun creating my tiny donut creations. But sadly the taste barely taste anything LIKE a real donut. It's taste resembles Play doh.. Sweetened play doh. (Yes, I ate playdoh when I was younger thinking it would taste like ice cream) I would purchase again if I want to kill some time, but perhaps a different one to try out the taste. 

Below is the link to the website where I purchased my Happy Kitchen!

That's all for this post! Ciaos!
