Heyho. How are you? I hope you're all well.

Recently I like watching movies at the movie theatres. It's not pinpointed. But honestly, I don't like science fiction movies so much.

Watching movies is something like taking a trip around the world. And I became a member of a 京都シネマ club! So I'll probably enjoy watching movies a lot:)

What's your favourite movie? Have you ever watched these movies?

FACE PRODUCTS FOR SUMMER SKIN.

PRIMAVISTA LONG KEEP BASE UV

It's my most favourite makeup base for summer. It's a makeup base with UV protection (SPF20/PA++). It works very well on my skin. It can prevent shine.

DEJAVU CONTROL SERUM

I apply this to my forehead every day. But recently it's difficult to find this at drugstore s... I don't know why. Anyway it's worth buying.

REVLON COlORSTAY CONCEALER

I hadn't generally used concealer so far. But recently I often use it to conceal zits (it's a serious problem... ) The fomula is a little dry and a little thick. But it conceals my zits completely.

RIMMEL STAY MATTE POWDER

I prefer pressed powder to loose powder. I started using this powder a few yeas ago. And I'm in love with it! I have oily skin but this powder prevents the shine for all day. I apply this over makeup base. Transparent is a little white for my skintone. It's great for summer and my most favourite pressed powder.

BOURJOIS BRONZING PRIMER

This is my first cream bronzer I've ever used. I got this one last year but I didn't (I still don't know) how to use it. hehe:p This cream bronzer has a texture like mousse, and it's very moisturizing. It blends easily with fingers. I apply it under cheekbone over makeup base. Surprisingly it smells like chocolate!!

BOURJOIS BRONZING POWDER

I also like this bronzing powder. You can get summer glow easily. It gives healthy and natural glow. This bronzer isn't so powdery, but it's easy to blend.

Have you ever tried these products? Matsuri

REDDISH BROWN EYES.

Products I used:
SLEEK EYESHADOW PALETTE IN 568 SUNSET.

OPERA PURE LIQUID LINER IN 04 PINK BROWN

RIMMEL SCANDALEYES WATERPROOF KOHL KAJAL IN 012 BRONZE

CANMAKE GOKUBUTO MASCARA IN 04 ANTIQUE CHOCOLAT ROSE

Sunset is one of my favourite eyeshadow palettes by sleek. I like red, copper, reddish brown... and in this palette, there are lovely colours which I wanted! They are highly pigmented. The name of this palette suits its style.

And I used a pinky brown eyeliner and reddish brown mascara. I wrote about them as April favourites. And I'm still into them!

MAY OUTFITS.

Heyho, everyone! How are you? I hope you're doing well:)

Some time ago, Kyoto has entered the rainy season. I don't like the rainy season because it's very humid during the rainy season in Japan!

Last week, I did 衣替え (koromogae, a seasonal change of clothing.) And I was surprised by a lot of black short-sleeved shirts which I got last summer! haha.

Hey, by the way it's time to share what I wore in May! May was super comfortable climate I think. And as I have said before, I wore some stripes pattern shirts in May.

I hope you like this kind of post:)

MAY FAVOURITES!

Essence is one of German makeup
brands. I often watch some makeup tutorials using their products on youtube. I thought I want to try them but I thought it's difficult to get them in Japan... But one day  I came across them at second hand stores called SPINS! SPINS is targeted at young people. I often went shopping there when I was a student...

LONGLASTING EYE PENCIL IN 02 HOT CHOCOLATE and 15 BLING BLING
The lasting power of the eyeliner is amazing!  It stays all day. I like using them to waterline. 02 hot chocolate is a dark brown, and 15 bling bling is a pretty bronze colour.

LIPSTICK IN 63 FLATTERING NUDE AND LONGLASTING LIPSTICK IN 06 BARELY THERE!
Basically, I prefer dark colours to nude colours. But I love these lipsticks. Flattering nude is a beautiful nude colour. It has sweet scent. And barely there is a dark brown/beige. These lipsticks are very moisturizing and comfortabl to wear. I think they are good for daily/natural makeup.
I think essence makeup products are good quality for the price!

SLEEK TRUE COLOUR LIPSTICK IN TWEEK
Sleek is a UK-based drugstore brand like  rimmel london.
Tweek is a matte brown perfect for a fresh vampy look. (from the official site for sleek makeup http://www.sleekmakeup.com/) It's a little darker than barely there by essence. I like both of two. I wore this one for many times in May.
Sleek is my second favourite makeup brand (I like rimmel london the best!)  I want to share with you about my favourites of rimmel and sleek some time:)

RALPH HOT BY RALPH LAUREN
It's a mix of flowers and dessert. If you like fantasy by Britney Spears, angel by thierry mugler, lolita lempicka (I'm sorry to say, I don't like lolita lempicka. Because it smells just like incense on my skin) ...you'll also like this one. 
top notes: mandarin, almond blossom, cinnamon
middle notes: mocha cream, orchid, honeysuckle, jasmine, fresh milk, fig notes
base notes: maple, vanilla, amber, musk, sandalwood

ALIEN BY THIERRY MUGLER
top notes: sunny Indian jasmine
middle notes: woody notes
base notes: warm white amber

ALIEN ESSENCE ABSOLUE BY THIERRY MUGLER
top notes: white jasmine
middle notes: orris root and cashmere wood
base notes: black vanilla potw incense, myrrh and white amber

They smell so gorgeous but they aren't to everyone's taste I think... And in fact, they are good for autumn or winter season. Because they are very strong perfumes . So I just dabbed a little behind my ears during May.

SIAMESE DREAM AND NIGHT PRAYERS BY THE SMASHING PUMPKINS
I was faced with a maltitude of stresses during April and May. But their music was a stress reliever to me!
I've been a big fan of the smashing pumpkins since I saw their performance in summer sonic last summer.  SIAMESE DREAM is my most favourite album of them. In this album, cherub rock, quit, today(the best song ever!), silverfuck,  and disarm are my favourites.

What's your favourites of May?:)

APRIL FAVOURITES!

BURBERRY BRIT EAU DE TOILETTE
I'm a big fan of sweet scented perfumes.  And this is one of my favourites.
I've been using this toilette since I was a university student. And I'm still into it.
Top notes: green lemon, frosted pear and white almond
Middle notes: white peony
Last notes: vanilla, amber, mahogany and balsamic tonka bean
The scent is perfect for winter season or cool days. I want full size some time:)

BURBERRY BODY EAU DE PARFUM
The scent of the perfume is completely different from  BRIT. It smells a little powdery, soapy and woody.
Top notes: fresh green absinthe, peach and freesia
Middle notes: rose and iris
Last notes: sandalwood, cashmerean, musk, amber and vanilla  

CANMAKE BROWN EYELINER IN 01 SWEET ANGELIC BROWN
I admire Alexa Chung. I like her taste in fashion and makeup look. Cat eye look is her trademark. And I want to try cat eye look like her. I have some black eyeliners.  But in fact, black eyeliner makes my eyes smaller. So I looked for light brown eyeliner, and I found this eyeliner! It's a felt-tip eyeliner pen. It's easy to glind on my  eyelid. 

OPERA PURE LIQUID LINER IN 04 PINK BROWN
Literally it's a liquid eyeliner. And it's a lovely pink brown colour. I think you can create a thin line or thick line easily.
It's a limited edition.

CANMAKE GOKUBUTO MASCARA IN 04 ANTIQUE CHOCOLATE ROSE
I've been looking for reddish- brown mascara for a long time. And finally I found this mascara! It launched in this April. This mascara doesn't contain fiber. And it doesn't fade and stain under my eyes. But it's easy to remove. All you need is warm water! Unfortunately, it's a limited edition.

CAVANNE LONG SERUM MASCARA IN BURGUNDY BROWN
It's a mascara containing fibers.  This brown colour is a little darker than CANMAKE one. This mascara also removes using warm water easily. I like both of them:)

コーヒーをめぐる冒険 English title is OH , BOY
I watched a nice movie. It's German movie. I don't speak German so I needed Japanese subtitle. I thought my character is similar to a hero in this movie... I added this movie to my favourites.

What's your favourite of April?

APRIL OUTFITS.

The weather in April was pretty warm. I enjoyed cherry blossoms and plum blossoms in Kyoto. They were so beautiful. And I also enjoyed the fresh spring green.

The weather is getting warmer, so it's decreasing to have a chance to wear leather/ jackets... By the way, I didn't know that rider's jacket is Japalish 和製英語!

You'll see a lot of stripes in my outfits next month(May). I got some stripe pattern shirts at second hand stores during winter:)
