NYX Triple Eye Shadows from yukcoba.in.

NYX Triple Eye Shadows is one of the many eye shadows palettes from NYX palette, which in each palette has 3 different colors. For my review, I have NYX Triple Eye Shadows with a combination of black, grey and white colors. From this combination, you can create smokey-eye look or whichever look you wish to portray. ^^

The packaging is well-packed, light and easy to carry. AND I CANT WAIT TO TRY!!!

TADAAAAA!!!

Applied Black as base, Grey for contouring my eyes, and White at the inner corner of my eyes

Use the pointed of provided brush for lining the lower lid of my eyes :D

Overall Look with drawn eyebrow hehehe

Overall Look without drawn eye brow

Comment:

In my opinion, I felt that NYX Triple Eye Shadow is REALLY REALLY GOOD. The texture of the eye shadow is not the powdery kind. So, it blended well with my skin. There is no dusty feel whatsoever after applying the eye shadow, which I felt really good about it. It is easy to apply for a new learner like me ^^. 

The eye shadow may last throughout the day. Of course, you can always retouch your eye make up. On a side note, I tried to wash my face (full of eye make up) with water and yet it didn't smudge. GOOD RIGHT?!

You can apply your eye shadow for daily make up or even for party. Cause, this combination of color is quite natural (meaning not too bold). :D In this case, I applied the eye shadow during the day, just light make up, to perk your look.

The packaging is small and you can just dump it on your handbag, party bag, etc. So, this is a definitely PLUS point which come in handy if you need to retouch your make up. ^^

NYX Triple Eye Shadows offer other combination colors as well, like Aquamarine, Casablanca, Ultra Chic, Perpetual, Rock and Roll, Tropical - Yellow - Lime Green, and many cool colors in each palette of NYX Triple Eye Shadows.

Price is really affordable! I checked online, the price is around IDR105,000.

So, what are you waiting for?! Go get it NOWWW!!! :D

First Attempt: Oreo Truffles

Yesterday, I made this Oreo Truffles. WHY? Coz I found it very easy to do. BUT I WAS WRONG D:

Let me share the recipe here.

Ingredients
36 pieces of OREO cookies (my case: Original, you can substitute it with others based on your likings ^^)
1 block of Cream Cheese (I used PHILADELPHIA)
1 pack of HERSHEY Semi-Sweet Choco Chips (use half pack)

Ingredients that I used

 PREPARATION:

1.   Blend the Oreo cookies. You can choose to smash it or blend it though.

After blending the Oreo

   2.    Mixed the Oreo and Cream Cheese, using mixer. 

          Put aside 1/4 of oreo crumbles for decoration.

          Tips: Before mixing, place the cream cheese outside the fridge, to let it softened.

   3.    Make a ball shape from the mixture.

          Tips: If the mixture to soft, just place it at the freezer, to harden it for 10-15 mins. 

          (Please check occasionally)

Dipping the ball to melted choco, out of shape T.T

   4.   Melt the choco chips using Microwave. Place it for 2mins, but every 30s stir the melted  choco.

   5.   Dip the balls to melted choco. This is where I FAILED terribly. Hixz. 

         The balls is totally out of shape. Haiz

         Put some of the oreo crumbles on top of the balls.

   6.   Place the balls into the fridge for 1hr to fully hardened.

   7.   FINAL RESULT

Weird Looking Oreo Truffels （ﾟдﾟlll）

      MY OWN TROLL:

CREATIVE RIGHT?! *please nod your head*

REVIEW:

Taste is good, but it is quite sweet for my liking T.T, maybe can use less oreo. haha

I don't know why my truffles looks so ugly. hahahaha..

My trolling picture is FUNNY RIGHT! HAHAHAHAHA

Let's back to the topic. I want to share with you our photoshoot that day. It was taken in Kluang, Johor. 

Like my previous post on the Star Restaurant , we went to take photo before savoring the scrumptious meal. ^^

Hairdo at Simpang Renggam

Must pweety2 before take photo ^^v 

Photostudio is a bridal studio >.<. The reason why B chose this studio, because the package studio for the photoshoot was more attractive! HAHAHA.. *Currently I forget all the names of salon and studio >.< *

Take photo before the real photographer snapped.. hehehe..

Kluang Guide: Star Coffee House & Restaurant Review

Last weekend, B and I went to Kluang for dinner. It was after his graduation photoshoot with his family. hehehe..

This was my second time eating here, the first would be 2-3 years back. I guess those locals should know this restaurant. During Hari Raya, we wanted to have dinner here, but was FULL HOUSE! So, they take in reservation to avoid disappointment.

Let me share with you the details:
STAR COFFEE HOUSE & RESTAURANT
NO.10 & 12, Jalaan Sutanah,
86000 Kluang, Johor.

Tel: 07-7723288, 7730593

Yup, this time B's dad called and reserved a table for 5 of us. HOORAY!!

This is their menu!

Let me show you, what we ordered that day:

Crispy Tasty  Duck (Xiang Shu Ya) RECOMMENDED!!

Apologies! I am supposed to take photo of the food, but honestly I was busy eating, till I realised that I have to take photo. hehehe.. greedy me..hehehe.. 

The duck meat is tender and crispy too. Think of Bejing Duck, very similar to this. It could be your alternative choice if you sick of the normal Beijing Duck. hahaha.. The sauce taste like Beijing Duck sauce, but it was darker (at first, I thought is dark soya sauce, but once I dipped the meat. OMG!! HEAVENLY! hehehe) PERFECTO muacks muacks! ^^

 Bitter Gout  with Egg

The gu gua is soft and not bitter SURPRISINGLY! I dislike bitter gout cause it is bitter. But, I like this! hehe

There is a tinge of sweetness, prolly from the sauce. nomnomnom...

Cod Fish with Soya Sauce 

This my FAVORITES!! The fish is freshly fried, so it is crispy on the outer side. Everything just perfect! LOVEEEEEEEE IT!!<3

Kampong Chicken

I would say Singapore Chicken is still the best! Be it 5 Star Hainanese Chicken or Boon Tong Kee.

Or, maybe my taste too used to Sg's one. (Different people have different preference right?!) 

The first mouth, the chicken was slightly oily and the taste made me feel as though it is not fully marinated. So yeah, I only ate one small piece. hehehe.. :P

Four Season Bean with Ikan Bilis

It is my first try of eating this. I have tried long bean and french beans, but not this.

The first bite, it is bland! Maybe, because it is not mixed fully, or thats the way it tasted. I don't know. hehehe.. Luckily, it is paired with ikan bilis, so fair enough.

Lastly, this restaurant has been visited by local stars too ( Namewee) I only got a glimpse of the stars' photos on the wall. Too embarrassed to take photo! hahaha

Me was there! LOL

Camwhore a bit :P

First Attempt Making Laoban Tauhuay!!

Like the title, this is my virgin attempt making tauhuay mimicking Laoban Tauhuay! Yeah, that famous tauhuay or beancurd originated from Old Airport Road.

Tadaaaa!! HOW HOW?! Looks okay right! hahaha..XD 

My very own Marchieta Beancurd!

That's what I called it. hehe. The texture is similar to LaoBan. I found it Laoban is more watery. My own Marchieta the taste similar but not the same as Laoban. If the same, I can open my own shop. hehehe..

Btw, this is my first post on my blog. I am new to this world. hahaha. ^.*
