AUTUMN TAG!!

Becky the Wallflower is one of my favourite blogs. I read her post 'Autumn Tag'. It was so interesting, so I decided to do this tag!

Favourite things about Autumn?
The weather of Autumn is mild. And it's very comfortable to live in low humidity.

Favourite drink?
Caramel Frappuccino in all season! It's a cold drink, but I want to drink it while walking  street and feeling the season is changing slowly.

Favourite scent?
Chocolate! I refrained from wearing sweet scented perfumes during summer time. So I'm looking forward to wearing this kind of scented perfumes. My favourites are Masaki Matsushima Chocolat Mat, the Body Shop Brazil Nut Body Mist and the Body Shop Amorito. 

Best lipstick?
Oh my god! It's so difficult for me to choose one! I love lip products especially lipsticks.  I'm enjoying brown lipsticks:)
Rimmel lipsticks are always my favourites.

Go to moisturizer?
I'm a lazy person. So now I use AQUALABEL WHITENING JELLY  ESSENCE following this summer. But I'll have to change my skin care routine for autumn/winter season...

Go to colours for the eyes?
I'm enjoying coppery brown shades. Recently I prefer matte eyeshadow to shimmer one. I'm going to try grunge chic eyes and simple cat- eye makeup. And I want to get burgundy eyeliner.

Favourite band/singer to listen to?
Ed Sheeran-Autumn Leaves
the Bluetones-Sleazy Bed Track
Something Corporate-Drunk Girl

Favourite outfit to wear?
I have to do seasonal change of clothing (衣替え koromogae in Japanese)! There are many short-sleeved shirts in my wardrobe yet. I'm not particularly on trend. I got some skirts this summer, but I didn't wear them. So I want to try a little girly taste fashion using them if I have a chance. And I'm looking forward to wearing leather jackets for cold season.

Autumn treat?
For me, it's finding some clothing for autumn time at second hand stores and some chocolates!

Favourite place to go?
I'm looking forward to seeing autumn leaves. There are a lot of places where we can enjoy autumn leaves in Kyoto!
But I also want to go a quiet place like art museum and cinema on weekdays.

I'm tagging everyone who wants to answer!
I really enjoyed answering these questions:)

CHEAP SWEETS


I stopped by AEON MALL on the way to 京都みなみ会館 (Kyoto Minami Kaikan) to watch a movie with a friend. And I found Japanese traditional sweet shop. 
I couldn't help buying these cheap sweets! I bought モロッコヨーグル (sorry it's hard to explain about this stuff), ココアシガレット(fake sweet cigarettes), パンチコーラ(coke flavoured sweettarts)  and プチプチうらない(chocolate stuff with fortune telling) :) They remind me of my childhood... 
Unfortunately, I don't see much of Japanese traditional sweet shop these day. 

Do you like traditional sweets?

FILL ME WITH YOUR LITTLE WISPERS

As you know, THE SMASHING PUMPKINS is one of my favourite bands. I think Billy Corgan is one of talented people I've ever known. I really like his sardonic (ironical? ) lyrics. Sometimes I feel that it's hard for me to explain my feelings, and their music inspire me.

I have ROTTEN APPLES GREATEST HITS. It's a very nice album. And I thought that I also want to make greatest hits of their great music.

This is GREATEST HITS I selected.

1. cherub rock
2. quiet
3. stand inside your love
4. rhinoceros
5. bullet with butterfly wings
6. pissant
7. drown
8. here is no why
9. my love is winter
10. ava adore
11. mayonaise
12. tonight, tonight
13. bury me
14. the sacred and profane
15. the everlasting gaze
16. glissandra
17. disarm
18. today (my most favourite song!)

Ahh, I really miss SUMMER SONIC 2013! 
Is there anyone who wants this?

AUGUST FAVOURITES!

Hi, there! It's time for a new
monthly favourites post!

RIMMEL SHOW OFF LIP LACQUER IN 601 LIGHT YEAR
Show off lip lacquers were originally released in the UK. And rimmel changed the name for the US release (I don't know why...) LIGHT YEAR is a plumy brown with subtle shimmer which is very natural and suits my lip colour. It's not sticky. I often wore it in August.
I found Japanese original apocalips, but they are a little different. I think they are sticky, and I don't like colour range.

RIMMEL WAKE ME UP INSTANT RADIANCE SHIMMER TOUCH IN 003 PEACH GLOW AND IN 004 SHIMMERING SAND
They are cream highlighter and they can create radiance and glow easily. PEACH GLOW is a shimmering peach colour. I think it can use as blush. SHIMMERING SAND is a beautiful champagne colour. I apply it to my top of cheeks.

BOURJOIS DELICE DE POUDRE IN 55 DUO
I wrote about it on BOURJOIS OF SUMMER post. This is the best bourjois bronzer ! It contains both of bronzer and highlighter. To be honest, I think it's not so pigmented, but these two colours suit my skin. I also like yummy chocolate scent!
  
BOURJOIS LITTLE ROUND POT CREAM BLUSH SUN IN 05 PINK SUNWEAR
I also wrote about this cream blush on BOURJOIS OF SUMMER post before. I love this  one. It gives a sun-kissed glow. I'm going to use it as eyeshadow base for autumn season.
 
SLEEK BRONZE BLOCK IN 100 LIGHT
The packaging contains three contouring colours and a pink colour blush. These brown colours are a little too dark to my skin. So I use them as eyeshadows. This product can create matte-finished smokey eye look.

CANMAKE STRONG EYES LINER IN 02 BROWN
It's a film-type liquid eyeliner. Waterproof fomulation makes strong brown line last for hours. I used it almost everyday in August. I have to practice drawing cat line like Alexa, haha.
I post pictures of eye makeup using sleek bronze block and canmake strong eyes liner. It's very simple and easy look!

THE BODY SHOP PINK GRAPEFRUIT BODY PUREE
I got this body lotion for free when I bought two products in July. It has very fresh scent and very light texture. My skin feels comfortable every time I use it.

THE BODY SHOP TEA TREE PORE MINIMISER
I use it to my t-zone before I wear face powder. It works well as same as DEJAVU CONTROL SERUM. And I want to try tea tree BB cream some time.

ALEXA CHUNG IT
I got the original book. I'm not good at reading English but I'm going to read little by little. And I'm looking forward to comparing two, written in English and written in Japanese:)

I LOVE ALEXA CHUNG
I found the style book last year. The book makes me feel that 'I want to find my own taste in fashion':)

わたしはロランス LA VIE D'ADELE
I've been wanted to watch this movie since I watched 胸騒ぎの恋人 in March. I learnt that love takes various forms...

リアリティのダンス LA DANZA DE LA REALIDAD
I watched movie in July, but it's still my favourite. I bought some post cards and displayed in my room. I was most impressed by the movie.

SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK
This is the most hilarious movie I've ever watched! And I also like inserted songs!  So I got the soundtrack.

What's your August favourite things?
