Hey Sara,

I'll be visiting Singapore two more weeks and I've been wondering, where can I buy the Nuovi blush around Orchard area? Thanks a lot for the info...

[icyabstract]

@jess0396 Hi there. You can either visit Sasa stores, or go to I Nuovi Professional stand alone stores. There is a Sasa in Wisma Atira, and Bugis if you do go by there. As for the stand alone store, the closest to town would be Suntec.

Hey, you.

This is pretty random but I just wanted to say that your channels awesome and it's so nice to have someone here in sg do make up tutorials cos it's so much easier to relate to you (: Just curious to find out where I can find NYX jumbo pencil eyeshadows cos I haven't been able to find them in the usual drugstores (watsons, guardian, etc.)? Thank you so much! I've heard they're really cheap and awesome.

Stay Beautiful,

@relostar1 Aw thank you so much (: Haha I'm glad I am able to help in that sense! As for the NYX Jumbo pencil, I'm not sure of it myself. I'm pretty sure it's not something we can buy over the counter here in Singapore so you might have to order it online and all.

Hi ~

Where did you get the solid perfume from ?

[icyabstract]

@liyekakashi I got it from Lush when I went to Hong Kong.

[MrStarfishlovesyou]

i love your hair :)

[icyabstract]

@MrStarfishlovesyou Thanks (:

[MJgal125]

oooh the lipstick is pretty...I think I'm gonna try the brush, cos almost all my brush sucks

[icyabstract]

Haha aw, which ones? The Essence of Beauty ones or the MT flat top? Either ways both are great brushes! :D

[pinkcharms]

oh and btw how do u apply solid perfume? :D

[icyabstract]

Well the lady at LUSH scooped some of it out with a stick and smeared it on my hand. Kind of like spreading out lotion. I run the back of my nail over the top and get some of it. You can also rub your fingers in it, like you would with paintpots and spread that on, but I feel scooping some up picks up more product and makes the scent last a bit longer.

[pinkcharms]

thanks for all the recommendations!

eyeing the lipstick :D

you alllwwayys get me buying something from all your favourite videos. haha (:

[icyabstract]

No problem (: Haha it is a gorgeous shade *hint hint* hahaha.

[yooriddalgi]

can u do a tutorial on your look today? i love ur makeup

[icyabstract]

Ooh, thank you. Hm, I don't really remember what I had on here... but if I figure it out I'll do a tutorial on it. I think it's rather similar to the Au Natural tutorial.

1:36. i'm sorry, but that's just adorable.

too bad they don't sell za over here : (

[icyabstract]

Aww, I know they are pulling Za out of some countries... Don't know why though.

[08blanca]

The lipstick looks so pretty.

[icyabstract]

Yeah it is a pretty shade. (: Not the most pigmented, but the sheen is nice.

[rystelle7]

anyway i have that za lipstick too!i love it!

[icyabstract]

Ooh yay, it's pretty huh (:

[dazzling734501]

where can I buy essense of beauty brushes from in the uk?

[icyabstract]

Uhh, I'm not too sure about that actually... I'm sorry! You could try googling it and see if any other UK gurus have gotten their hands on it. Sorry about it!

[dazzling734501]

I love your videos

[icyabstract]

Aw thank you! (:

[babynur96]

your eyes look bigger here . hahaha . nice .

[icyabstract]

Lol really? I thought they would appear smaller since I was so tired that day. haha. Thanks (:

[rystelle7]

so wads ur 'everyday' foundation?

[icyabstract]

It depends. For liquid I use Silky Girl's O2 liquid foundation. For powder, I use Za's Pressed Powder (:

[MagicMirrorOnTheWall]

what's silica?

[icyabstract]

I don't really know its exact components, but I think it is similar to silicon in a way. It functions by creating a 'layer' over your skin. So your foundation goes on great and oil produced by your skin doesn't mix with your foundation and all that.
