My Wish List for 2015


:::It's the most wonderful time of the yearrr:::
So we are 5 weeks away from Christmas! I am curious to what everybody else wants this year. For me I want a lot of things...

Not going to lie, as I get older I find myself wanting more and more things, especially materialistic things over the important stuff. But this list is something that I want to achieve/have hopefully next year. 


Wish List 2015! 


1. SK-II Facial Treatment Essence - I have heard so many good things about this "Miracle Toner" I have very dry skin and have used almost every product in the market so I am very eager to see if this can help solve my dry skin problem. But at £95 for 150ml I'm not quite ready to spend that money just yet, let me get my xmas shopping done first!

2. Givenchy Antigona Bag - I just fell in love with the shape. Simple but elegant, it offers a tote style handle with a shoulder strap and a range of colours to choose from. Just Beautiful. Every girl should own their very own designer handbag, agree? Price tag of £1,150 though.

3. Blogilates by Cassie Ho - This lady was introduced to me when I was watching BubzBeauty Vlog and wow wow wow I want her amazing body! She is a fantastic teacher and incredibly inspirational. All her videos are easy to follow with a lot of burn! But more importantly its so much FUN and way better than going to my local gym. Her videos make me want to get fit and healthy again, Bring on 2015! 

4. My very own apartment - I have  been thinking about getting my own place since I moved back home from University and its been a constant thing in my head. I know I won't be able to afford a house :'( but a small apartment of my own is possible. So the way I see it, work hard, save a lot and hopefully a year or two, I can have my own Home Sweet Home :) Also I won't have my parents nagging at me lol

5. Sony NEX-3N - Good reviews on this compact camera. Small, Light but yet powerful. I have a Canon 550D Dslr for a few years but wanted a compact so its easy to carry. 

6. China - A country that I must visit. My ancestors are from Shandong Province so would love to visit the old villages and really experience the culture with the locals (even though my mandarin is poo) also I want to see a real life Panda :3

7. New Glasses - My current one is full of scratches and just really over worn now. Mind you it was a bargain, got it in Malaysia with lenses included £30.00! Maybe I could wait a bit longer until my next trip haha!

8. Car - Out of everything in the wish list, I desperately need a CAR. No longer convenient for me to go places and I hate relying on my mum and my bf. I am still halfway through my lessons so I am praying to god that I can pass 1st time and drive!


That is my wishlist for 2015, let me know whats yours ;)

REVIEW: Loreal Ombre Red



  So I recently decided to change my hair colour as I was really bored of my classic black but didn't want to have such a drastic change so after some long research I opted for a ombre red!

First off, its been over 3.5 years since I last dyed my hair. I put it off as I got sick of retouching my roots and my hair colour (Light Ash Blonde) really didn't suit me. My course mates once said that they were reluctant to approach me as I apparently looked like a "Bad Girl" lol 

Now I debated whether to get this professionally done or just do it myself but as you know it isn't cheap and most shops have so much variety, its easy to get tempted to just D.I.Y


So I bought the Loreal Red Ombre for £7.99 at Boots. 


Packaging is well presented, soon as I saw this I fell in love with the colour as its different, stylish and seems to work well with dark hair. 




This handy brush made it very easy to apply the product to my hair. 


Me looking like I just murdered someone

It's not too bad! in natural light you can visibly see the red tones but indoors with no natural light, it's hard to tell. So I would say if you have really dark black hair, might not show up that well.
 But for £7.99, this is well worth the price! 

Overall Rating: 8/10 :)

Annabelle: Review



For those who don't know me, I love horror flicks. So when the film Annabelle  got released today,
I couldn't wait to watch it. If you have watched The Conjuring, Annabelle acts as a prequel/spin-off.

Trailer


To be frank, I didn't have high expectations that this film would likely scare the bejesus outta me...BOY I WAS WRONG, it was pretty scary! Like you wouldn't expect a fugly looking doll to scare you right? Prepare yourself as this one has some surprises up it's sleeves.

I have to give credits to the sound guys, no doubt that the soundtrack played a huge part for the terrifying chills. It created a really scary atmosphere that just left you so uneasy.

One of the main reasons why I was so eager to watch this film was the guy who produced it, James Wan. He is the genius who directed Saw, Insidious, Insidious: Chapter 2 and The Conjuring.



He really knows how to scare the audience without the gore, (ok accept Saw lol) or visual effects, sticking to old skool horror. So if you like those types of films, definitely worth watching Annabelle.

Downside I didn't quite like the ending, I thought it was a tad predictable? and watching it in a packed cinema ruined it as you always get some people laughing hysterically or screaming like crazy lol.

At the end credits, it states that the real Annabelle doll is contained in a glass box where The Warrens keep it safe.... DUN DUN DUNNNN!

My verdict is 7/10!

So what do you guys think? Have you seen it yet? Let me know what you think :)
