I believe most of my readers who followed my look of the day posts would have found out my love for elf cosmetics, and noticed the number of elf items that I own.
***WARNING: Graphics-heavy and Lengthy entry***
Finally! After much struggling and juggling between work, life and blogging commitments, this article is born!
I've tried my best to share my reviews on all the products I own and if I missed out anything about the products, leave a comment below and I shall respond to you as soon as I can.
Some general FAQ targeted at Singapore (maybe asia too) audience:
Q: What does elf stands for?
A: elf is eyeslipsface in short.
Q: Where/How to get elf products? Their website indicates they dont ship internationally..
A: I first laid my hands on them via Gmarket/Qoo10 sellers. Then I got my friend in states to help me out with my orders. I tried using Vpost once to ship the elf orders too. 
In terms of payment methods and reliability, I will reccomend getting it from local sellers via Gmarket/Qoo10 as theres 2 whom I know organizes fleas regularly.

I didn't really planned on getting the Silky Girl Lipsticks, as my eyes were glued to the long awaited range from Maybelline >> Color Sensational Lipsticks, that finally launched in Singapore about 2 months back.
However, the color sensational lipsticks were retailing at SGD 17.90 each, as compared to US, it is way higher. T-T
Then I noticed the Silky Girl display thats just next to it (i was at Guardian Pharmacy) and couldn't help playing around with the testers of moisture max & gloss-on lipcolors when they are only SGD 9.90 & SGD 8.90 respectively! 2 of these Silky Girl lipsticks is almost the price of 1 Maybelline sensational lipstick.. How could I resist? XD So I ended up buying 1 from each range. >.<
Let's take a look at Moisture Max lipstick.
 
Packaging is shiny metal casing with the bling. The colour I have is Plum Smoothie, magenta-purple-pink. It goes on smooth and has great pigmentation, last for more than half a day. It does survives lunch, leaving your lips with the tinge of colour or almost all if it if you only tap on your lips with tissue after food & drinks. Talking about moisturizing lipsticks, this is it! It does stain your lips a little. It doesn't dry my lips as the day goes by and keeps it rather smooth & soft. Whereas some other lipstips which I've tried can go on shiny and glossy looking but dries off or disappear before half a day and makes my lips dry and might even get flaky. With Moisture Max, I have no such problem. Last but not least, no strange/weird/awful taste nor scent. *Thumbs up!*

Now it's time for Gloss-on Lip colour~
 
Its a silver-grey packaging with a lid thats not very tightly closed, but luckily, does not loosen when it "dance around" in my handbag. It literally gloss-on and leaves a high shine! Very smooth and the colour I have is Cool Pink, a hot reddish fuschia pink. It is quite pigmented but does not over stain your lips. However, being so glossy, it doesnt last as long as the Moisture Max which I have. More or less about half a day at max. Due to its "shorter life span" on my lips, it does not keep my lips supple for long, need reapplications. This is the same as Moisture Max, it has no strange/weird/awful taste nor scent. *Thumbs up!*

大家好!! 這次真的很興奮,應為我終於摸索到如何剪接我路的品評了~~ 呵呵，其實並不只是技術上的＂邁進＂讓我如此的興奮。應該說是我的＂新發現＂讓我迫不及待想要與你們分享！
Hi Everyone~ This is so exciting for me coz I've finally figured out how to use the most basic Windows Movie Maker to edit my video review. ^o^ Not just that actually, it is my excitement on the product that I've found and will be reviewing for you.

 
This shampoo comes with the O2 Skin Body & Face care package which I bought in Nov-11. I've started using this product 2 weeks ago and I wish to share my thoughts with all of you.
As i've recently rebonded my hair, I thought that this shampoo for normal - dry hair would be good for me. I assumed that it will be more of a moisturizing type of hair wash.
Nope, it wasn't. In fact, I think it's just like any other shampoo and it leaves the hair squeaky clean, I mean it literally. A little too squeaky to my liking. I was expecting it to be conditioning as it's for normal to dry hair.
The fragrance is quite interesting though. No sign of any gingerly scent but more of a light cross-over between fruity and floral. If compared with asience, which to me is heavily perfumed and very moisturizing, this O2 skin shampoo leaves a light and refreshing scent.

Hi there~
If you have been following me on google+, you might have seen my post on a recent purchase from Watson's. Yes, I'm gonna share with you my thoughts on the Maybelline watershine diamond lipsticks which I bought!!
The 2 lipsticks that I possessed are #304 and #301.
  
Below are some swatches of both lipsticks on my hand and on the lips.
First, is my nude lips:

Most recently during lunch I chanced upon the Guardian Pharmacy magazine, Feeling Connected! Vol.3 Oct-Dec 2011 @ $1 only~ heh.. obviously I couldn't resist the temptation and gotten it!
   
It is very informative but also contains quite alot of adverts.
In addition to the substantial and very useful information on health and beauty, it comes with lots of freebies for giveaway to readers. Not to forget the free samples for trial!
