okay so I would like to buy some Sephora things such as the Urban Decay Primer Potion and I also want to buy some Mac items but there is not any locations near me so I would have to ship them in from there website is this very safe? have you ever bought online? and I'm pretty new to make-up what products would you recommend for me? and what eyeshadows from mac would u reccomend for just starting out (the most basic colours)? please help me out... :D

[icyabstract]

@123mrbear Well it depends on the site that you are getting it from but generally most sites I have browsed and shopped from are quite safe. If it's a site that a couple people have mentioned and people have shopped from it should be fine. As for MAC shadows starting out, I don't have a lot of MAC shadows, but I've heard colors like Wedge, Brule, All That Glitters, Brun and such, more neutral shades are good choices.

[123mrbear]

thanks for the help so what eyeshadows do u mostly use then?

[icyabstract]

@123mrbear For me I typically don't use MAC shadows a lot when it comes to neutrals. When I buy MAC shadows I tend to buy the more unique colors. But I really like using Brule as a highlight shade or even an all over lid shade at times.

[icyabstract]

Haha I guess that's my default phrase to use when my brain dies on me. For some reason not other phrase comes to mind. Aw thank you (:

Singapore is really beautiful. I went there 3 time and only stayed in the airport because I took Singapore air to my country. Yes again, it is pretty but it is also supper expensive. I also had couple passengers telling me the same things. Lol, just saw your video and that is why I am wondering that you must be millionaire to live in there. Tell me more about over there if you can. What do you do you over there?

[icyabstract]

Oh yeah that's true. Things are expensive here I guess but we earn enough to pay for what we need. Compared to the standard of living in Europe, I'd say we're a little better off. If you're asking about my job, I'm currently a student so I don't have a job.

[vsonic86]

Wow you live in Singapore. You must be a millionaire?

[icyabstract]

Haha no I'm not a millionaire. Just wondering, what made you think that though?

[amypringle]

when you say 'much much much larger version' you sound so english.

I like it.

[icyabstract]

Haha I'll um take that as a compliment? haha. Thanks.

[pinkcharms]

[icyabstract]

Haha, I'm glad you find it interesting!

[hazelnuts01]

you are so organize even in the making a video :))

[icyabstract]

Lol. I guess I can't help it. But when it comes to my closet or study racks. Oh gosh I don't know where everything is.

[iluvkenzo]

I loveee your lipcolor. What colour/brand is it? Thanks!

[icyabstract]

Thanks. It's Maybelline's Moisture Extreme in Honey Ginger.

[jessiechoix]

your freaking gorgeeeous!!

[icyabstract]

Aw thanks my dear. haha.

[toto850]

Thanks for answering my questions!!

[SpoiltBrat12345]

your hair right now is nicee

[icyabstract]

Thanks (:

[KMurphyallthetime]

did you dye your hair?

Im sorry, that sounds so weird for me to say. It just seems lighter.....and really pretty!

[icyabstract]

Nope I didn't re-color my hair. I guess it's this new video quality or the lighting that makes my hair look lighter. As opposed to the older video quality, this is more of how my hair looks in person.

[princesskimbie]

Oh your so pretty! That is soo cool in Singapore there is a slightly difference in Drugstore makeup and MAC?? That is awesome here in the U.S. there is pretty much a BIG difference!!

[icyabstract]

Thank you (:

Yeah! I heard you can get some drugstore shadows for prices like 4 dollars and such? That's amazing! haha. The cheapest drugstore shadow we have here would probably be at least 9 or so.

[princesskimbie]

Yeah! Even 3 dollars! WOW 9 dollars for an eyeshadow is alot of money! I would buy MAC!

[XeggerollX]

you say "so on and so forth" a little too much... good video though =)

[icyabstract]

I know, I'm definitely trying to correct that but sad thing is I don't notice it myself when I'm recording but when I listen after, I'm like aw man. haha. Thanks. (:

[JKLOUK]

hehe it's cute!! :)

[JKLOUK]

wow you sound so british when you say ' much larger version' that's cool hehe!! :)

[icyabstract]

Lol really? I seem to have a tendency to have a sudden/random british accent on certain words. I have no idea why. I think I have problems. haha.

[miraclegirl90]

the drugstores brands are so much more expensive compared to the us. argh. for eg a revlon/loreal/maybelline lipstick/gloss can cost 20bucks which equal to US$14. which can buy me one mac lipstick there. unfair right sara??!! =(

[icyabstract]

Yeap so true. I mean, currency conversion aside it's still more costly here and I don't see a logical explanation why. Sigh...
