BOXING DAY!

How to spend over 800$ in 2 days - 101:

Lunch @ Les 3 Brasseurs Downtown - Beer braised porc shank
I am a food-aholic, if you dont know this yet. And EVERY time I go thru restaurant reviews on the internet, this one always pops out. Its called Les 3 Brasseurs ( The 3 Brewers in english, which sounds odd). It serves Dutch and Germain food which has to come with beer. They actually brew beers on place and offer free all-you-can-eat peanuts, how cute. The beer braised porc shank is on their lunch special menu for 12$ only! The softness and juiciness was just perfect. Cooked patato with butter and seasoned salad matched perfectly with the pork also! I'm definitely going back soon and i truely recommend this restauant for everyone.
L'Avenue - Brunch restaurant
So I've been craving brunch for days and i woke up early today just to fulfill my stomach's fantasy before shopping. That was actually fkn expensive for brunch, but it was well worth it. I ordered British style poached egg and my parents had Salé sucré which was French style. Mine had english muffin, salmon, poached egg and melted cheese on top. The other one had french toast, ham, poached egg and mapple syrup. It came with oven cooked patatoes and tropical fruits. It was freaggin awesome, but I wouldnt spend that much money on brunch. My parents paid it so eeeh, wtv =D

Boboboboxing daaay :) Got bored waiting for my dad to choose a cardigan @ Banana Republic
American Eagle (Aerie)'s bag is so cute LOL ( my ugly UGG's.. I just washed them an hour ago :D)


Got bored .. again waiting for my mom to choose a coat @ Simons - -
On boxing day #1 I wore heels and one piece dress , which was SO BAD for shopping :( Never ever do that guys .. Hence the outfit today ! Hoodie , jeans and UGG. Much better



Wheeeee. 70% of what bought :)
Yeess, i bought a fresh made mask @ LUSH. I heard lots of good stuffs on the Love Lettuce Mask so i got one. The expiration date is January 10th, so I will probably review this product then if I like it.
(LACOSTE had 50% off everything! Can't miss that , can you?; & I got myself a red top for New Year :D)

SOO.. 3 days of vacation flew by and we be chillin ya know =) .. so gay LOL

I'm off to catch up on some TV shows, I can't wait for next week !

( Lack of words )

so the 4 days longweekend, literally, flew by.
Marianopolis was fun but i think im still going for Vanier.. had HOTPOT with friends for supper that night! ;
Went to L'Oreal outlet Friday and the rest of the weekend = 24h library @_@
So here are some of the stuffs i bought from the outlet :D


L'Oreal Bare Naturale mineral powder & Vichy Dermablend high pigmentation concealer
I didnt open the foundation yet, i bought it for the word ' Mineral' since i love it so much
and the concealer is like the shit. It so thick, a tiny bit goes a long way.

(The missha eyeshadow stick was there for some reason...i didnt buy it at L'Oreals )
Maybelline Eyestudio eyeshadow. well, i dont usually use eyeshadows so i bought something versatile. Taupe brown; shimmery pin and champagne. The champagne can be used as a highlighter and the taupe one, an eyeliner.
Maybelline XXL mascara and L'Oreal one( forgot the name)
Thats my first 2heads mascara; microfiber base and the mascara itself. I find it such a waste of time since the result didnt surprise me. But it wasnt as thick as i thought it would be so im fine with it. The l'Oreal one : ive been using it since 3 years and its awesomely unreplaceble!(however u spell it ..)

...
So recently, I'm taking herbal medecine to restablish my hormones and reduce pimples. I'm at my second week so far and i can see a slight improvement. While taking my medicines, i'm also using honey (goodiiiieee) to help the result. Honey has antibacterial benefits and it heals skin damages. I spread some on my face after i wash it at night and leave it on for a good 30 minutes. I also dilute some with hot water and drink it since it cleanses ur stomach leftovers and helps period pains.
TA-DAA! i bought this huge thing at Costco and i looove it :)


isn't it so cute ?

...

1 month left before christmas finals. I'm stressing my ass out here.. I think i might just move into the library for a month - - I srsly spend more time in the library than at home..thats not right. NOT RIGHT
Such a nerd i am, i even drew a fkn study plan for this month which is to be completed. I sticked it to my desk to remind myself that I.NEED.TO.STUDY.!





Ok u might think i'm crazy now, but I dont understand shit in class so its the only way out.
And guess what i'm going to do now?
.
.
.
STUDY MORE! D:

Shitty sunday

So i studied all day at UQAM's library yesterday after WYO rehersal @ McGill
Got home around supper and found a post-it on the fridge
' honey i made u soups and pasta, they are in the oven. Love, mom'
Aw great. PC all night, & fell asleep before my parents came home.
SLEPT 5 freaking hours ; got up early for L'Oreal outlet sale AND didnt even get in..so many ppl @_@ ugh
and parents decided to go to IKEA. I wasnt in the mood so i stayed in the food section enjoying free refill coffee and my breakfast
Got home and pc was having some problems.. fixed it by myself ! I'm SUCH a genius
First day of taking herbal medicines and its probably like the worst thing i ever drank..
It was bitter, hot, sour and to make it even better, it looked like extracted juice from cow shit.. 1 L of that, i was that close to puking - -
But since its so good for me, i sucked it up. EWWW one - four months of that crap every day?
the result better be worth it ..

Sooo i got some body butter since my old one is almost done. i know i neveruse lip balms but it came with my 2 body creams so why not?


..now, i rly have to catch up on reading.

Weekend plans and a depressing story

Thanksgiving 4 days longweekend , yeryer!
Parents free, YERYER!
Shitloads of hws , yeryer - -..

[...]

So I read a story on internet and it got me depressed.. 'Cause its putting what I wanted to erase from my life into another story. Most of all, at the end of the story, the blogger mentionned that people who understood it are mostly married or above 35 years old.. how sad is that. So here's the story:

Once upon a time, a princess named Diana was in love with a prince. Their wedding day finally arrived and the princess was dressed in her prettiest gown. In order to get to the prince's castle, she needed to cross a river. Diana didn't want to ruin her gown so she sat there hoping for her prince to come. Hours passed by and a donkey came by. He was the uggliest thing the princess has ever seen.
The donkey said :" hello there my lady, I can help you cross this river, just hop on my back".
To which Diana replied, no thank you. You are not tall enough and I don't want to wet my gown.
Donkey:" why don't you trust me? i promise i won't ruin your gown"
Diana refused. So the two of them just sat there. The donkey was waiting for the princess to change her mind and the princess was waiting for her prince to arrive.
The sky turned dark and the prince still hasn't come.
So the donkey said:" what if he never comes? Let me get you to the other side, I promise not to ruin your gown. But if I get you there and your gown is still as pretty, you have to take me home". Diana was tired of waiting so she agreed.
Before she hops on, the donkey told her that he can only support that much weight so if she drops tears, he won't be able to support the heaviness. The princess said that if he ruins her gown, she will leave him.
The donkey walked slowly but surely and her gown didnt touch the water. They talked a lot and the princess just knew that she's the fifteenth girl he takes on his back to cross the river. Except the first one, the rest all had their gowns ruined.
He walked safely and Diana stopped worrying about her gown.
Donkey:" are you happy right now?"
Diana:" Yes I am"
Donkey:" Is it because of your gown or me?"
Diana hesitated. The donkey said that either way, he just wants to keep her on his back. Diana fell asleep and dreamed about donkey transforming into a prince after she kissed him. When woke up, she kissed the donkey on his cheek but nothing happened. Donkey is donkey and prince is prince. Her prince is the one waiting for her on the other side of the river, and not this donkey.
She was lost in her mind and got overwhelmed. So much that a tear dropped out of her eye. The donkey suddenly crashed down and dropped her in the water. They didn't say anything and Diana walked the rest of the way by herself. The donkey didn't even try to make her stay and walked back, to wait for the next princess that won't cry on his back and take him home.
The princess arrived at the castle but the prince wasn't there. She sat on the ground, she was cold and sick. A little rabbit passed by and the princess took it into her arms and said:" all i need now is a hug to warm me up". She saw the donkey on the other side and cried.

[...]

There are two phrases to complete this story :
- On your first true love, you loved this person. If they deceived you, you will only love yourself when you get into another relationship
- The word love as a noun does not go with an 's'. The word lover, does.

So did you understand the meaning of the story? Did you figure out what donkey, princess, prince and rabbit represent? And the symbolism behind every element?

Busy weekend, again..

Why do we have so many homeworks? This is so gay.

Still sick. Someone called me earlier :)
I was feeling too sick so I took a hot bubble bath with rose buds and milk.
every girl should take care of herself.
Hot bath warms you up, helps to cure cold, open pores and takes all them evil little things out of your body. To upgrade the bubble bath, you can add in honey, rose buds, essential oils, olive oil, milk(yea i was about to make that white.. fail), red wine, dried flowers, lemon juice, fruit slices...
You get the point. And after you pat dry, apply body lotion all over asap.
My skin is so much smoother and I feel allll warm

CND Open House this weekend and I'm the guide , muaha
Last year at school, I rly want to cherish every moment of it.

I'm home alone, its 11pm and I'm watching Gossip Girl
Peace out !

Tuesday, September 28, 2010

Maaaaaan..

Tuesday morning ; 11:40 am
No I'm not at school. Im so damn sick that i have to rest home..
I don't know if its getting any better but I'm coughing blood O_O ..yeaa

Gosh.. it feels like crap

Sunday, September 26, 2010

Sick

Rainy Sunday afternoon.. still in my bed, watching Japanese TV dramas. Its freeeezing outside
Sore throat + runing nose , ugh I hate being sick.
I remembered a recipe my grandma learned me : Honey Pear . She used to cook this for me everytime I catch a cold and it works wonders. So basically you just cut a pear into cubes (big ones) ; put them into boiling water; add honey and black sugar and boil more. And serve
It helps your immune system, unblock your nose and helps blood circulation (so u feel warmer)

Who studies in the fucking movie theater?.. me
Yea I went on top of AMC pepsi forum cinema yesterday after my rehersal to study with JM.
I might stay up late tonight to finish reading Zola since we have a test tomorrow

Thursday night was fun. Went to play pool and arcades, wheeeee
And 'The Town' rly sucked ..

Busy week coming up, exams , grad photo and open house. I hope everything goes well! :)

Monday, September 20, 2010

10 days.. seriously?

Its been 10 days I havn't updated my blog. SORRY

Ive been really busy recently. With school and orchestra and shizzles.
Homeworks are getting quite annoying and I hope I can keep it up until christmas, no actually I have to keep it up.
Waking up @ 6 everyday literally feels like shit. Yea, the brown ones
Losing my job just adds the cherry on top yknow.
& Since I'm that lucky, I just had to meet somebody who messes everything up when I need something serious, or even better, nothing at all.
When things go wrong , they all go wrong at the same time..
So I hope my life gets back on its steps asap.

Oh and I discovered and awesome recipe for omelettes so you guys better wait patiently for my next post , muhaha.

Yea.. peace, got english reading comprehension to do.

Friday, September 10, 2010

School is so far so good. I've been so busy these days, ugh. Feels like getting hardcore ass raped.
I rly hope my hard work pays off

Guys.. Starbucks' Green Tea Frappuccino is THE SHIT! how do u ever get tired of it?

Sana face wash, KOSE masks & SKIN79 Dreamgirls bb cream

As I promised, a review of three products that I bought a week earlier :)

SANA SOY MILK Face Wash
I decided to try this one out since its makeup remover was amazing. I adore Japanese drugstore skincares just because they are natural , gentle yet effective. This is Sana soy milk's face wash made out of pure soy beans. It claims to cleanse deeply even removing makeups without being rough to the skin. When I first tried it out, i squeezed out about 3cm of the product ( like i used to do with my old facial wash). But this product foams so amazingly, you only need half a cm. Yes, a pea size is even too much. IT FOAMS LIKE CRAZY. The bottle is quite big so I think it'll last for a quite long time. It feels rly soft and gentle on the skin & when it foams, its almost like massaging foamy whipped cream on your face LOL So it has quite a creamy texture. It doesnt have any smell to it, only a slight tiny teeeeny bit of soy bean scent if you snif hard, since its all natural. I love the idea of using something THAT natural on my skin instead of harshly perfumed products. After washing off, my face felt weird at first. It isnt a tight or dry feeling, but it feels like my skin is so clean that it has a different texture.. But it imediately goes away when you pat your face dry. My skin felt UBBER CLEAN , hydrated, soft and brightened. I actually dont recommand this for dry skins 'cause it might cleanse too much. Also, even tho it removes makeup, its better to use a makeup remover before to not leave any residue behind.
4 out of 5 due to the weird feeling that lasts for a few seconds, if not, its a perfect face cleanser.

KOSE Clear Turn Collagen Essence Mask

Another Japanese drugstore skincare. This is an interesting product. It comes in a tissue-box like little package that contains 26 sheet masks inside. Once you open the seal, you can see its the exact same concept as tissue boxes. You pull on sheet mask out at time and they are all soaked with collagen essence. KOSE clear turn has 4 types of mask pack. This one is collagen elasticity(in pink), theres also whitening essence(blue), Q10 (orange) & hydrating essence(yellow). KOSE masks has the best fit for my face and the tissue is rly thin and strong at the same time. This mask is so convenient! It can be used every single day and 5min is enough since its very concentrated & meant to be a quick S.O.S for ur skin. I use it in the morning before I apply my makeup if my skin feels dry that day. Or when I take a shower at night. The heat in the shower gives even better result. It basically hydrates your skin and gives it a moisture shot. I have to say that I've used quite alot of sheet masks and the problem is no matter how amazing it claims to be, the result is always the same: hydration and brightening. From now on I'm only using this sheet mask and for a better result I will try wash off masks instead.


SKIN79 Dreamgirls BB Cream


Ive been looking for a perfect bb cream for SUCH a long time. I need to clarify that 'perfect bb cream' for me isn't perfect coverage, whitening effect, anti-aging and such. I want a bb cream that acts great as a makeup base which means sheer coverage, light texture, oil control, sun block, natural colour and skincare benefits & all this without being too greasy or thick. I think this one is the closest to perfection. It has spf 30 and PA +++, its very sheer almost liquidy, the colour is very natural(unlike some bb creams with grey, pink undertone or too much whitening effect), it has oil control properties and leaves skin feeling fresh. BB creams all claim to have skincare benefits and dont feel like having makeup on. Out of all bb creams I've tried, this is the only one that actually match these properties. Dreamgirl bb cream is made for teenage girls between the age of 16 and 22. It doesn't have all those fancy effects so its less heavy on your skin. It has papaya and other fruit extracts that get rid of extra sebum and heals blemished skin. It rly feels like a moisturizer or even lighter. The only con would be: I won't wear this to occasions like parities, concert or such cause the coverage is too sheer. It's great for everyday makeup and for girls who are looking for a bb cream that rly feels like no makeup on. Definitely 5 on 5 and will purchase it over and over again.


Hope my reviews helped! Next reviews: MISSHA the style eyeshadow stick, Etude House 66 Big Eye Charm and Skinfood Rice Wash Off Mask

SKIN79 Prestige Diamond BB Cream and SANA makeup remover

Im overly exhausted these days.. Sleeping in around 5am. Woke up pretty early this morning to have lunch with my dear Marina @ Kanda ( yea , you :D I know ur reading this LOOL)
So yesterday, before going to work, I went to buy some stuffs which Im going to review today.

The first one is a makeup remover (oil) Its from the Japanese brand Sana Soy Bean. They have the whole range of skincare products from cleanser to masks. Its actually the bestselling skincare products line in Asia. What makes it so different and so popular is the ingredient. Its made of pure soy beans' goodness and on top of that, no artificial colour, no mineral oil and fragrance free. I personally ADORE soy milk and soya beans and such so I decided to try it out.
The size is smaller than I thought but its 18$ so it didn't rly matter. Basically, you massage the product onto ur face to disolve the makeup and then wash it off with your daily cleanser. It feels rly good on the skin, its very gentle yet effective. It disolves all kinds of makeups, even waterproof mascaras. The best part is, instead of harming your skin which all chemical formulated makeupremovers do, this is actually good for your skin. Im going to continue using this until I find a better makeup remover, which I highly doubt since this is definitely a 5 on 5 product.
Yea the photos were taken on my bed since my desks have no empty spaces xD
The next product is a miniature version of SKIN79 Prestige Diamond BB cream. Skin79 is the first makeup brand to put BB creams on the market and still makes the best nowadays. Ive tried Missha's bb creams because of the high coverage and sun protection it gives. But then I find out that SPF 47 and the super thick coverage only makes me breakout and emphazise my blemishes. So I decided to try products with a lighter consistency , lighter coverage. Every single BB cream products SKIN79 makes are all light weighted and gives a sheer natural coverage. It brightens the skin and has oil control properties. This brand has so many BB cream choices and I chose this one because the functions are very simple which gives less pressure to your skin since at 17 years old, i dont rly need caviar extract or winkle improvement. The Prestige Diamond bb cream is the most light weighted among them, it has the best brightening effect, has oil control while moisturizing. Its is SPF 25 and PA ++. The ingredients are pretty fancy but suitable for young skin, such as gold powder, diamond powder, crystal powder, pearl extract etc. I must say that the coverage is not the best but it still does a better job than a tinted moisturizer for sure. This product actually has an upgraded version called Diamond Absolute Total BB cream. Which has higher SPF , better oil control and better coverage. Its the next bb cream I'm buying and I hope it doesn't let me down.
As I mentioned on the previous post about SKIN79 gold label bb cream, SKIN79's bb creams dont break me out unlike Missha's. So that's a big big plus. I would rate this product a 4 out of 5 due to the sheer coverage but i guess its a 5 out of 5 for many girls out there who have less blemishes. Try it out!

Etude House Tear Drop Liner & SKIN79 BB cream sample

Alohaaaa. Ive been soo busy these days! With working and all. & by the way yesterday was my first day working and it was awesome & stressful LOL Still have alot to learn =)


Back to the topic, I received my eBay order : Etude House Tear Drop Liner in pearl the day before yesterday. It came with a SKIN79 gold lable Silver BB cream sample. So I tried them out yesterday and decided to do a review on both of them
Thats how the liquid liner looks like without flash & i didnt have other makeup on
as u can see its quite sheer but it sparkles under sunlight or ordinary indoor light with small amount



The items
Ok so the reviews.

ETUDE HOUSE Tear Drop Liner
Its a bottom waterline liner which is intended to make your eyes sparkle more and achieves a dolly makeup effect without over doing it.
Its quite sheer as I mentioned but a little goes a long way since it sparkles so much. But the sparkles are suitable for everyday , not like stage makeup or anything. The brush makes the application easier. It doesnt sting the eyes or anything. And i have super sensitive skin. I wore that to work from 5-11 and when I got home, its still on. But then, its rly easy to remove, u can remove it with water and without excessive rubbing. The only con I have for this one is the handle.. its so fucking huge. I think its about 6-7 centimeters while the bottle itself is like 10 cm... It makes it harder to manipulate while putting the makeup on but its no biggie i guess.
Overall I would rate this product 4 out of 5 and will repurchase it for sure.

SKIN79 silver bottle BB cream
Ive heard that skin79's bb creams are very natural, sheer and dont have much coverage. I tried this one out and I must say that it isnt THAT sheer and the coverage isnt THAT bad. It has a creamy texture which is less oily than Missha ones. It felt quite thick when i rubbed them on my fingers but once patted on the face, they blend in quite nicely with my skintone ( NC 20 for reference) and has this half-dewy effect which can lead to an oily effect for people with oily skin. It has some fancy ingredients such as pure gold powder and caviar extract to nurish ur skin and its made for 25+ skin. After 6hours of work, I only had to blot once and I have normal and slight oily skin. After I tried this product out, I would say that SKIN79's bb creams are wayyyyy better than Missha ones according to me. Missha has full coverage which can lead to cakiness, grey undertone, heaviness and too much pressure for the skin. SKIN79 is lighter, sheerer, easier to apply, more natural and it does have a medium coverage. Plus Missha has a quite strong smell but SKIN79 doesnt. THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS: Missha broke me out due to the heavy sun protection and coverage, but SKIN79 didnt. So for people who don't have major discolouration, I recommand skin79. & by the way I do have redness and acne scars on my face. I used a primer and this to prep my face then I set it with a thin coat of mineral foundation. The result is on the first picture.

Sooo I hope it helps.

The old one is no more

Its raining out side and I'm loving the weather. Its soo soothing.

Tomorrow is my first day of training. & I have a high chance of getting this job.
School in 10 days.. and I'm going to work my ass off until christmas
The old yz and the old times no longer exist. The new her will place her dreams and family over all priorities and will work hard for what she wants. Getting this job will be the first step to this and getting better grades for cegep will be the second. She used to expect alot from other people and just wait here for miracles to happen. She used to give up so easily without even trying. Because she knows there will always be someone to help her out. Now shes learning to be on her own. She will never give up and hope faith and life dont give up on her either.

Makeup tutorial

This is so exciting guys, its my fisrt time trying to do a makeup tutorial and I even have a model for this!! And the best part is, she is ubber gorgeous. Thankyou Mika!

Ok so this look is inspired by Korean actresses slash singers. They have a very unique style of makeup which concentrates on glowy translucent skin, sparkling eyes, thick yet natural eyebrows and soft lips. So let's get started!

First of all, mixing tinted makeup base and two different shades of foundation is a perfect way to achieve a thin layered, translucent base yet giving a great coverage. Mika has fair skin but since shes asian so she has a little bit of yellow. The vanilla colour makes the pocelain one more natural on her. These two colours compliment eachother. By adding a tinted makeup base to the mixture, we are diminishing the heaviness of the foundation and adding more luminosity. This could be applied with a brush or a sponge or fingers and toped by a pearl shine loose powder. I also used highlights and blush on her face

The brows have to be thick yet natural. So instead of brushing all the way thru, I filled in the arched spaces above and under her eyebrows to create a thicker illusion. Since her hair colour is light brown, I matched a brown eyeshadow powder and brushed over her eyebrows with upwards and outwards motion. (and she is wearing coloured contact lenses)

Something unique about this makeup is definitely the eyeshadow part. We are trying to create barely-there but luminous eyelids and sparkling undereye. I simply applied a lavender colour pearly eyeshadow onto her lids instead of white cause its less harsh. And a champagne colour eyeshadow under her lower lash line. This makes her eyes shine while keeping the look soft and it also adds punch to this very soft look


Remember, we are trying to make the eyeshadow as natural as possible. So I dabbed some purple eyeshadow (matte) to her outer lids to make her yes pop more. This can be replaced by bronze, brown.. depending on what you like


Eyeliner is probably the only thing in this look that needs to be harsh. Since everything else is so smooth, I used cream + liquid black eyeliner to create a clean cut line. The key is extending all the way to ur inner corner and wing the outer corner, but just a little. and connecting the wing to a 1/3 lower liner. The line in the inner corner should be as thin as possible, gets thicker on top of your iris and gets a tiny bit thiner toward the wing.



Eyelashes should be clean, elongated and natural. So fake lashes aren't recommanded since they will make the eyeliner even harsher




Finish off with pink or coral lips to soft down the eyes. I chose pink to match her eyeshadow and blush. I used a baby pink lipstick with shine and topped it with translucent lipgloss.







And we're done! :)
You can see on this pic that I've applied the pearly loose powder which has a slight tint of pink on her forehead, chin, nose and cheeks to illuminate the whole face.




Voila. Isn't she pretty?
I hope you all enjoyed this. Stay beautiful!

With Love, YZ

Online shopping ♥

Been shopping online for the whole day and ended up saving these few items.
I looove online shopping because 1: you can shop worldwise, hence marchandises you cant find on the market 2: you can ALWAYS find stuffs cheaper than market prices
So here we go, these are for Autumn and Winter!

Big-ass scarf that is super warming and has 8 ways of tie-ing it. This is a must for winter and I will buy this in teal and grey. It pratically goes with everything and is super useful
Leatherette light brown\caramel knee high boots. Another must for autumn or winter. Goes with legging and skinny jeans + wtv top or coat or cardigan you want.

100% cotton comfy sweater. I love it because it changes my cardigan-with-top autumn routine. I would wear it with skinnies+boots or leggings or jean shorts+stockings+boots. And add a scarf if needed
Annnd bright colour hoodie. I got tired of hoodies with zippers so i decided to try this one , it looks quite cozzy :D and it goes with my woolen black coat. Its a pretty colour for winter!


Yea, so thats what I got today. Still waiting for replies 'cause they are directly shipped from HongKong. I rly hope I can get them *cross fingers*
Speaking of online shopping, I recently ordered Etude House's Tear Drop Liner in pearl white. Its like one of the hottest products in Asia so I can't wait! & I will do a review asap

Soo tomorrow, going to shop DT with zw and eaaaatttt. & hopefully send a few CVs.
Hope you all had a great day!

With Love, YZ

Damn cookies




So today I went to walk around on Saint-Denis with Dave.
Found a restaurant called Confusion 1637 Rue St-Denis
Its such a pretty place and they even have tables with swings instead of seats , how cute

I ordered beef tartard AAA and Dave had mini sliced beef burgers. They all came with potato dishes and French Bread Sticks. The meals were finely prepared.
I didnt know that beef tartard stand for raw beef .. it was good tho

That was supper and pratically the only thing I ate from morning till then since I woke up around 1pm ... So I got hungry an hour after we ate .
So we passed by a pastry shop (which I forgot the name) and bought some cream baked cookies.
They are truely orgasmic but fattening at the same time :(

I guess its time to burn some fat ..

Rain shower + Missha Pure Essence Masks

So I was shopping with Marina today and we passed by this newly opened shop near Guy Concordia called C&C korean Cosmetics store. & bought these two Missha Pure Essence Facial Masks cause they were on sales.
Actually I took a pic of what I've been rly loving recently.
The Missha BB Boomer sample, Eyebrow shaper and Olive Oil makeup remover
The BB boomer is a makeup base which holds foundation longer and provides luminosity to your skin.





Ugh , the rain totally ruined this perfect day. I walked back home and got soaking wet.
