About Me

I created this blog back in August 2010. The focus was mainly on Material things. Though I am still a lover of material things however, I feel that there are plenty of bloggers out there that feeds into this frenzy of having this constant want over basic necessities. Instead, this is just going to be a blog about my adventures through life. I hope you enjoy reading my blog!! ^^ Please comment and subscribe!

Confessions of a shop-aholic!! T.T

**SHOP-AHOLIC**
T.T

Shopping gives me a high. A type of high and happiness that I know I simply can not replace...But after that high is over, your left with empty pockets. Anyway, I've been collecting, hauling none stop.

Ok...Girls. I've been loving Youtube, Blogging and Twitter. I've made so many sweet friends, and can honestly say that I that I feel soo lucky to have found this outlet. I've finally been able to become comfortable with myself and embrace my Asian culture and how I look. Growing up in the USA you basically only have Caucasians in the media to look to, and because I look different, I've never felt beautiful. I give many thanks to Xppinkx as well as frmheadtotoe to show me that being Asian is beautiful and yes, I owe my new found vanity to them.  However, at the same time this outlet is really bad for my wallet. I've really been digging a hole in my bank account that is starting to look horrendous! I can honestly say that this is my official last haul for the next 3 months! 


My Hautelook package...


I got this for $18! It was a Great Deal! The shadows are amazing...ever better than the Stila Shadows I got from Costco and not to mention way bigger (FYI, I am returning that palette). The colors are amazing and the bronzers and blushes and high lighters are killer! There is also gorgeous lip glosses. Anyway, if you missed the sale on Hautelook you can buy it online for I believe around $24? Its worth it as a gift to friend, family or yourself if you are just starting your make up collection! JOIN HAUTELOOK  http://www.hautelook.com/invite/ALo101 and hook me up!







All these Lashes were also from the Hautelook package. All these lashes I believe came out to $14! Yes it was a steal!


I got this top at H&M and a couple of cardigans at Ann Taylor. Gosh, I believe I spent about $300 that day just on clothes! >.< Even tho I love this top I am returning it. I might return one of the cardigans I purchased from Ann Taylor as well. Sorry i don't have a picture of those cardigans because I don't have a full length mirror at home to really show you how cute it is on!


Thanks to Xppinkx I got this amazing cleanser! I've recently purchase the Falsies mascara by Maybelline and though I love the effect it gives, its a pain in the ass to take off! @.@ This stuff is magic! My skin feels great after I use this product. At first it feels oily but everything comes off so easily! Not only that, the second it touches water it dissolves and leaves no residue at all. ^^ Your skin also feels really moist afterwards. I love it! Thanks Xppinkx...now I don't have to buy that bottle lancome Bitone eye makeup remover for $26 and I have a face wash! 


This is what I use along with the Sheshiedo cleanser. I do this so I can see all the dirt that comes off my face. Hahaha its very interesting!


I've tweeted about this! I was soo excited about finding TheFaceShop around my area! Anyway, I've been breaking out a lot and I purchased a face mask. 


I got around to using this mask today. Left it on for 20 min and washed it off...and then my face felt flushed afterwards. I hope that means its working...

I also found an Ulta around my area! See this shit just doesn't end! I need to stop looking for an excuse to buy things. I ended up purchasing a jumbo NYX white eye pencil as well as a Rimmel natural lip liner.

I am also on a hunt for Purple Shadows...I LOVE PURPLE:


This is MAC "Coygirl" and it looks amazing on Asian Skin. Wow... it looks like your blushing from within. I LOVE LOVE PURPLE BLUSHES!

I have a lot more items that I didn't get around to taking pictures of...but this is all within the last week. @.@ Its insane, and I need to stop! 

YES...and I challenge all of you to this CONFESSIONS TAG. 

I want to spread the word that even though it is healthy to express ourselves, we need to make sure that we are being smart about it!! I am not pointing fingers, but ladies you know who you are. I swear I log into youtube every hour just to see if there is another video from my favorite gurus have uploaded. I really look forward to what new products they have purchased and where I can find it! >.< Its insane! Twitter is just as bad for me because I can get instant responses on the products I am interested in buying... not only that everyone suggester different products and it just makes me WANT WANT WANT! Its endless, and its starting to get scary.

My goal in the next three months is to rediscover all the items that I have purchased since summer. Its going to be hard because that high of buying a new product is going to be gone but its not worth my future. I plan on buying another house within the next three to four years! Simple pleasures now, however little can slowly paralyze you. 

In this Confessions Tag, The Goal is to:
1.  STOP SHOPPING, STOP SPENDING.
2. Start SAVING for something BIG that will affect your future. (its ok to buy one thing you absolutely love each month but do not let it go over $60. I know its tough!)
3. Let your readers know what you are saving for and commit to it.
4. DO NOT CHEAT because your twitter readers will find out!
5. Remember that this is suppose to help you...your future is very important!
