Abracadabra~~~!!!

I got this Shu Uemura make up bag 1.5 months ago but I'm only blogging about it now because I finally started using it! 因為一直不捨得用。。太可愛啦！ I think this is definitely my favvv make up bag so far and you will find out why if you keep reading! 

(sorry the photos are kinda yellow/pink I'm too lazy to photoshop them >.<)

comes in super cute box!

 

It's called the abracadabra pouch hehe what a cute name! Limited edition 2010 Christmas design~

Abracadara.....Ta-Dah~! 

Super cute~ and it's made out of a silk like material~ really soft!

I attached my anna sui lip gloss to it~ and the zip is so cute as well ^__^

Ok so here is the reason why I love this make up bag~ It has two zip compartments and then two net like pockets

so you can put quite a lot of stuff in it in a very organised manner and because it's made of soft material if you don't put much in it, then the bag will be small and not bulky! My other two make up bags are made of hard material so doesn't matter how much stuff you put in there, it still take up a lot of space in your bag! But dw your make up won't get crushed because I think there's cotton or something in it that cushions all your precious make up ^_^

And here is some stuff I take with me.. Eyedrop (if I'm wearin con), mints or in this case mint spray!, floss (cos is cooler than taking around tooth picks hehe!), lip gloss, small bottle of perfume, cotton buds and I like to take the eyeshadow pallet I'm using for the day and an eyeliner for touch ups!

If I'm wearing false eyelashes I will take eyelash glue and eyelash box (my Dollywink one ^.^) which is not in this photo and of course a compact powder which is also my mirror (not in this photo either)

Shu Uemura designed by Takano!

Ok now I know you must be asking where can I get one? Well... it's actually not for sale... They were doing a promo at David Jones Shu Uemura stand where if you spend more than 215aud you get this free... I'm not sure if they are still doing this promo now because it was for the Christmas season and it should be out of stock by now but you can still try your luck? I'm going shopping tomorrow, if I remember I will go check it out and see if it's still available!

So in order to get this bag I end up buying Shu Uemura's translucent powder so I can spend more than 215aud >.< But it's worth it because it's such an awesome make up bag and best of all it's limited edition!

yah yah I know that's what gets us girls sucked in those two magic words >.<; 

Two things on my wish list right now...

1. No!No! permanent hair removal laser thingy! There's a new model out for 350aud sold at Myer personal care but.. it's SOLD OUT in all the Myers!! omgg.. So I'm waiting for them to restock.. darn.. the more you can't get it the more you want it!! Humphz..

and second thing is... New camera!! My camera is soo shit atm it's like 3 years old so I desperately need a new camera..! It's essential for blogging and of course for a girl that loves camwhoring -.- What girl doesn't? Oh wait I think ugly girls don't haha Sorry if I offended you.. but that would mean that you admit you are ugly right?

Anyway I'm still doing research so I havn't 100% decided on what camera I want to get but I'm going to buy it in Hk in Feb

 Any suggestions? I want like a semi DSLR camera.. like the olympus pen epl1 or sony nex5.. but now there's new cameras out so I'm still researching..

Please let me know if you have anything suggestions!

Going to get my Little Big Planet 2 tomorrow~~ ^__^V

Yuki's make up collection

I'm a typical girl that like to 扮靚靚～ (dress up and look pretty) so therefore I *need* the following...

*I think by the end of this post you will see why it will be a pain to share a bathroom with me and also why my bf always complain that I have too much stuff and I am always wasting money buying things I don't really need -.-*

Eyeliners~~ pencil, liquid, gel! Need different type of eyeliner for different effects! 

My fav is the majorlica liquid eyeliner - perfect automatic liner - all my friends that tried this eyeliner loves it too! It doesn't smudge easily and the brush is very soft so easy to apply!

Bobby brown is also a favourite but after a while it gets annoying because you must apply with a eyeliner brush then clean the brush after every use >.<! Plus the gel dries up quite easily

Dollywink liquid eyeliner is also quite nice - it can draw very fine lines so your hand must be very steady so if you are a noob using liquid eyeliner then stay away from this eyeliner!!

Least recommended is the chanel eyeliner - smudges very easily.. already stopped using it ages ago! I just use it when my friends and I play draw on your face games! HAHAH >.>

Lip glosses, lipstick and lip balms! I'm not really a fan of lip sticks but I love my lip glosses!

Fav lip gloss - Anna Sui - so glossy n pretty! Bought this on my first trip to Japan, apparently it was the 

ichiban ninki (most popular) lipgloss colour at the time! 

Fav lip balm - Mogitate! Omg I buy a lot of this every time I go overseas to stock up because they don't sell them in Aus, all the flavours smell so nice! First discovered by Zhao Li in Japan so I bought heaps both times I went then recently I discovered they sold this at Watson in Singapore too! Woot! Score =)

Fav lip stick - Etude lip stick - it's very moisturising, don't have the cracked lip effect! Love it!

Eyeshadow Pallets

My fav is the dior and majorlica ones!

It's very soft and the colours blends very nicely

Eyelash glue, mascara, eyebrow pencils and eye brow colour

DUP eyelash glue is the best out of all the eyelash glue I've ever tried! Already using my second bottle! 

I'm not a mascara fan because I prefer to use fake eyelashes so not much recommendation there

and I've only used Kate's eyebrow make up so again can't give much recommendation in that area either

Last but not least~ foundation~ liquid, compact, bb cream and powder, concealer and blush!

My fav bb cream would be the etude bb cream

Foundation - Really like nature republic's foundation! 

Powder - I quite like shu's powder compare to the rest

Concealer - LOVE jill stuart's concealer! Cute packaging and works great! Can't really see it from this picture but you can look back on my Jap shopping hual post to see more photos of the concealer

Do not recommend the chanel compact foundation, it's super drying, you can see the cracks on your face after you put it on >.<

My fav compact foundation would be the skin 79 one!

And my gorgeous make up bags~ Love the limited edition shu uemura one!

Wrapping up the post with my make up removers!!! Different make up remover for different occasions~

My favourite would be... well really depends on the occasion

Love using make up wipes after clubbing or whenever I'm super tired and drunk and lazy

Shu Uemura's cleansing oil suppose to work as a two in one make up remover and face wash but I hate it as a face wash because I feel that your face is still so oily after using it so I'll have to wash it again! But I love it as a make up remover because it dissolves all your make up! Even the stubborn water proof mascara and eyeliner

Make up removers especially for eyes with cotton pads are ok but sometimes I feel it is so ma fun because you can't really use it if you run out of cotton pads!

 90% of all my make up are bought overseas but I do sell some of these

If you would like to buy any of the korean branded make up like Etude, Nature republic, skin 79 and Laneige please contact me for a price quote for the products you would like to buy and I can get my friend to send them over from Korea

She will only be there til end of Feb so please let me know your orders before then!

Some Japan branded make up I can *try* get for you so please contact me if you are interested in anything and I will see what I can do

Anyway I hope you guys had fun looking at my make up collection~

Good luck to me taking all my stuff to Melbourne -.-;; *stresses*

Japan Feb 2010 Shopping haul!

Ok first of all, what is ichimarukyu?

It is how the japanese say 109 as in Shibuya 109

ichi = 1   maru = O or noughts   kyu = 9

And Shibuya 109 is my fav shopping mall in Tokyo! Theres 8 floors and 2 floors underground so 10 floors in total! The first pic was taken when I went to Tokyo in 2008 July, there was a 5 days bargain sale! 2nd photo was just of a dbsk banner in shibuya cos I love them so much! hehe Other than that I didn't take much nice photos of Shibuya cos my camera is crappy and most of the photos are blurry!

So that's why I decide to name my blog Yuki 109, so this will be my version of a 109 with posts about make up, hair, shopping, travelling and all sort of miscellaneous things =)

So why is it a shopping 'haul'? Cos you should see how many 'hand luggage' I had when I flew back home! Feel sorry for my boyfriend! I was seriously worried that I couldn't bring everything back!

So here is my 'harvest' from shopping trip #1. 

 Got off the subway at Omotesando Hills and first stop is of course at the Samantha Thavasa DELUXE store! There you can buy limited edition products from the deluxe line that you can't find in other Samantha stores.. (but I'm lazy to post the picture of the store, I think I will do that in another post)

Anyway, here is what I bought! Deluxe Samantha cosme pouch in pink for 10,500 yen! Super cute!

Then I went to checked out all the luxury brand shops along Omotesando avenue - Chanel, LV, Dior, Burberry etc den I came across Kiddyland!! It's basically got all Hello Kitty, and all these japanese toys and stuff! So I bought a lot of rillakuma stuff!! One bolster, earphone, mb pouch, 2010 calender, bling pen, business card holder and a rillakuma paris set for my best friend Zhao Li

actually I only love korillakuma the white one cos I love white and pink and it's cuter than rillakuma! Anyway everything was 15,571 yen.

 After that we walked to Shibuya, on the way stopped over at Vivien Westwood store. Wasn't that good so didn't buy anything

When we arrived at Shibuya, I went to check out Shibuya 109-2. Three levels were all clothing for men but there were some shops for girls too and I bought this top, it was on sale and super cheap only 980yen! Really good quality too! What a bargain!

 Alright and next up Shibuya 109! I think I started from the top floor and made my way down! Everything in 109 is super expensive! Everything starts from 8000yen +++ But I did manage to find some goodies

LDS 5th Floor - long boots 12,800 yen with 50% discount = 6400yen and short boots 3000yen
the long boots can be worn over or under the knee

I actually havn't had a chance to wear either of these shoes yet *gulp*

 Flag - J 2nd Floor - I think it was 3150yen each cos the total bill was 6300yen and I'm pretty sure it was the same price

 Pinky Girls - 2nd floor next to Flag - J

Love these two coats to death! 9500 yen for the coat 8500yen for the jacket. The long coat can be worn without the collar and comes with a cute black belt! Also can take away an inner layer so the coat can be worn in winter and in autumn - spring as well! Loved everything in that store but is super expensive! The girls working was so pretty and friendly. Plus also saw this girl with this old guy prob her sugar daddy and she basically didn't even try on the clothes, just pointed to this n this n this and then the guy stood there with his credit card ready to pay. The girl had LV from top to toe and she wasn't even pretty at all!

Oh also bought some lingerie from FKJ, their lingerie is hell cheap! I bought HEAPS first time I went for me and my best friend and this time I went back for more! I regret not buying any from Peach John but they were pretty expensive! 

After Shibuya 109 I went down the road to Donky Hote to buy some contact lenses. They only had 3 months lenses and quite expensive around 4000yen each! And got some rillakuma slippers 798yen each! Donkyhote is basically a store with a LOT of random things u can buy like accessories, fake eyelashes, even second hand tiffany jewelery! I didn't have much time cos I just went there for the contacts but highly recommended though!

Ok so here is the happy family photo of all my shopping from day 1! looks like a lot aye!

Day 2 Shopping

Visited Ginza and I bought some JillStuart Make up at Matsuya Ginza - foundation 4000yen, concealer 2800yen and gorgeous eyeshadow pallet 5000yen! The packaging is soo cute, gets you sucked in huh? The foundation don't come in a pump bottle so it's a bit annoying getting the foundation out, but it has a nice scent but I love the concealer! It is so cute too! hehe

Went back to kiddyland for some rillakuma stationery for last year of uni and letter sets so I can use it to write letters to my best friend in Korea cos she loves rillakuma more than me! 3317yen for everything!

 Bought some clothes from Harajuku, quality not so nice but is certainly much cheaper than Shibuya!

Margo - 1995yen for the white top and 4095yen for the grey long cardigan which is on Takeshida Doori.. actually it's not that cheap when you think about it.. lol

 And a maxi dress, I think it was 5000yen

 Ok went back to shibuya 109-2 and found this store Lodispotto and bought 3 jackets and a skirt! All super good quality! Greatly recommended! 4700 yen for the white jacket and long cardigan and skirt and 6600 yen for the leather/pinkish jacket

 A must go in Japan which is their drugstore, kinda like Priceline in Australia

I got masks, DUP eyelashes, glue, kate make up, sekisei from kose, hair dye omg a lot! Must stock up! was around 24,000yen omg.. thats quite expensive for all that! haha.. I kinda went crazy it seems..

 Ok then I went back to Shibuya 109 for Navana Wig which is on B2 and bought a wig, and hair accessories! 17,325yen in total!

 Happy family shop from Day 2 Shopping!

...and some souvenier I bought from Disney Sea

Final photo of me with all my shopping ^__^

In conclusion... Japan shopping is the best!! But super expensive.. so you will need to prepare to put a huge dent in your credit card or wallet..

My regrets for this shopping trip is...

• Didn't buy anything from peach john or liz lisa...
• Didn't buy duffy or shelliemay from Disneysea...

FMLFMLFML..

And.. I didnt realise Hk have a peach john and a lizlisa store... so didn't buy it when I went to hk either! fml X 2 

BUT I am going back to HK in Feb so I SHALL get peach john and liz lisa then AND My bf is getting duffy and shelliemay for me for xmas this yr

so unFML =)

yay If anyone interested in reading about my Japan trip in more detail please drop a comment and I will write an entry on it next time! Yeh I know it's a very late entry cos this is all in Feb this year but since I just started a blog so I have a chance to show off all my shopping now! haha
