My Top 3 Favorite Beauty Youtubers!

Sunday, 12 May 2013


Here to share with you my top 3 favorite beauty youtubers! (Not in any special order)
They are very much the reason why I’ve been shopping so much on USA websites the past few months! =P

♥♥♥


1. Michelle Phan
Most of you should know her.
I guess she can be considered the most popular beauty youtuber?
Reason why I placed her as one of my favorite beauty youtuber: She has lots of useful tips video!
She got me addicted to getting IPSY bags too hahas.


2. Ingrid a.k.a MissGlamorazzi
Some of you might know her?
Reason why I placed her as one of my favorite beauty youtuber: I love her monthly favorites videos!
She has an oily skin too and her monthly fav/beauty video often shows her favorite products.
So… you should know how who made me addicted to buying all those USA products
which I think might suit my oily skin. Eg. Revlon Colorstay Liquid Foundation 
(which is cheaper in the states and is indeed a good product)


3. Jen a.k.a FrmHeadToToe
She is a youtuber and blogger! I follow her on nuffnangx ;)
P.S If you have yet followed me on nuffnangx, please do! TYVM :)
Reason why I placed her as one of my favorite beauty youtuber: She has lots of nice make up tutorials that suits Asians!
She also shares lots of brands that Sephora carries! Eg. Tarte Face Primer
And yes, she is the one who made me keep checking out Sephora!

♥♥♥

That's all for this blog post!
Feel free to share with me your favorite beauty youtubers in the comment box down below ;)

[Recipe] Nutella Popsicles

Tuesday, 12 March 2013

Hello all!
Was very busy with the IT show the past few days.
Thus... I ran out of scheduled posts :( As I haven't been writing.
Just as I planned to write more posts, I fell sick.
Doctor says it's either food poisoning or infectious gastric flu.
Been sleeping a lot lately thanks to all the medicines.

♥♥♥

Anyways here is a cute recipe I found online.
I'm not allowed to take chocolates now (it is a dairy product... how am I gonna survive right?)
So... I can only try this out after I recover.
BUT all you peeps can try it out first! It's super easy!

image and details from kidspot

1. Gather all your ingredients
Ratio:
1 cup full cream milk
1/3 cup Nutella

2. Using a blender (or manually),
mix the ingredients together

3. Pour the ingredients into
your popsicle mould

4. Freeze and serve

♥♥♥

Simple and easy! That's all for this post!
Now I'm off to rest again :(
Have to recover asap so I can go back to work!

BUSY.

Thursday, 22 November 2012

Busy, busy, busy.
If you realised, it's the time of the year again!
No, not any celebrations.

But it's...

THE EXAM PERIOD!

So yes, that's the reason why I have been blogging a lot lesser than usual.
But I promise once the exam period ends, I will be back to blogging more frequently! ♥

My Current Life

Sunday, 2 September 2012

Life has been boring ever since I left USA and school in NTU started.
BUT thanks to all the blogger events and gatherings, my life got slightly more entertaining! lols.
Reviews and blogposts coming up soon ;)

Many things have changed over the past few years.

"I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go. Things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they go right. You believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart, so that better things can fall together."
- Marilyn Monroe

A random quote that I came across online and felt it was a good one!
Once you can fully let go you will be happy again. We always start by trusting others. But once they lose your trust, you will learn that you cannot easily trust everyone (of course there are people whom you can still trust). And I love the last line! "Good things fall apart so that better things can fall together". Unhappy stuffs have happened in my life in the past. So good things you can start falling together now. Please.

True that the life I have now is better than what I had during my JC times.
No more scoldings and mood swings.
Thankful for my friends and family who stayed by me and cheered me up back then.
And I choose to believe that I'm a happy little girl now :)
But of course good things please continue to happen in my life! ♥

It's Been A Week!

Sunday, 19 August 2012

It's been a week since I last blogged!
So what have I been up to?

It's 8.30am okay! And I had to travel all the way from home!
No more hall :(

Satisfied my gongcha craving with sis one fine day after school :)

Mummy's birthday! Bought a pretty cake for her :)

Met up with our dear exchange student, shiyun, in NTU!
She joined the Singapore Universities Student Exchange Programmer (SUSEP)

This weekend wasn't too bad though. Got to meet my friends to sing and meet the girls to eat :)
But next few weeks will be boring :(

And hmmm... I haven't done any tutorials! Arghhh!
Still got lectures to catch up! Yes I know I know. First week only how can I be lagging right?
But surprisingly, I'm able to start lagging since week 1 zzz.

What I've Been Up to These Few Days!

Tuesday, 5 June 2012

Haven't been blogging for afew days :(
But... I'm in New York!! :)
That explains why I haven't been blogging.
No time to blog! 2nd day in New York.
Was at the whole time square area today.

Doubt I will have the time to blog these few days.
So follow my twitter and instagram to know what I'm doing! hahas.
both nicknames are tanhuiping
Here are some of the instagrams I took yesterday and today :)

Our room in Brooklyn! :)

Scenery from our bedroom :)

Us prepared for our Day2 in New York! :)
Btw, we were all in 3 layers clothing here!
One tank top and two cardigans!
Ir's super super cold here. Quite nice.
But when there is strong wind, it's crazy!

New York Ave 8. Can't remember which street exactly it was.

Resting in Starbucks and planning our itinerary for the next 3 days.
P.S. There are Starbucks everywhere!

One of the subway stations in New York! :)

Near Times Square! Madame Tussauds.
Didn't enter today. Will be going there again :)

Will try to find time to blog again!
Maybe tomorrow night. Too tired tonight.
Still got to go QC the photos taken and upload on fb!

Mixed Feelings

Thursday, 10 May 2012

I have so much that I'm suppose to blog.
BUT I'm busy with my DIP now!
Tomorrow will be the final day for DIP!

Here's a sneak peak of our car ;)

So much to do today and yet I'm blogging now.
I know I'm crazy but I just wanted to type some stuffs.
Having a headache now. Maybe due to the lack of sleep for the past few days.
Been going out everyday and only reaching home late at night (afew days at 12mn)
And having to wake up early the next day and stuff. I'm really tired :(

Headache's not helping my need to understand and help edit my sub group report now.
And having lots of stupid mixed random feelings now which isn't helping me at all!
I say stupid cause it's really dumb feelings which I even hate myself for having.
Sudden feelings of being useless, stupid, extra, etc. No idea why I have such a feelings too :(
Those who have been following my blog for a long time knows that I've got low confidence 
due to stuffs that happened in the past.
But all these feelings are coming back again. Why?!

I'm so sorry for ranting here. But just wanted to release all these feelings :(
And I promise I will be back with better posts!
Now I've got to go back to understanding the changes made to our report.
Was late today and they made changes and I'm lost now!
I think tonight can don't sleep le. Cause I've got to wake up at 6.00am tomorrow!
Or maybe even 6am cos I take very long to get ready to go out. Sighhhs.
