Maybelline Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner [Girly Review]

My "affair" with gel eyeliners started when I found out that I could participate in sprees in lowyat.net to purchase stuffs from US which was never possible before! Coastalscents gel eyeliner received a lot of good reviews from the fellow beauty junkies in the forum so began my quest to get a black eyeliner. But the coastalscents gel eyeliner in black was almost always OOS so i got one in navy blue instead. But it never satisfied my "lust" for a true black gel eyeliner until now....

NMEDA in Providing a better future to the disabled

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of NMEDA. All opinions are 100% mine.

I think people these days are more aware of the needs of the disabled. Back when I was little, ramps and toilets specially for the disabled may not be a norm but it is these days. But are those really enough? NMEDA (The National Mobility Equipment Dealers Association) is actually a non-profit trade association that educates consumers on buying equipments for the disabled from a NMEDA qualified dealer.

Not all disabled people have the same needs which is why a personalized "in-person" evaluation can ensure that you are getting the right driving solution customized to your specific needs. NMEDA dealers are there to help you if you need additional training or product refinements. NMEDA has BOTH dealers and Quality Assurance Program (QAP) dealers. The QAP is the only nationally recognized accreditation program for the adaptive mobility equipment industry.

If you were to ask me now where you could purchase a wheelchair or special equipments for the disabled i don't think i can give you a shop to get it off the top of my head. Which is why a NMEDA dealer would be very helpful if you have a disabled or an elderly loved one.Unfortunately, i can't find a qualified dealer near my location. But you could find out for yourself whether there is a dealer near you from the dealer locator link on the NMEDA website. Why don't you give it a try and let me know? :)

Chain-of-Friends Sweepstake

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Hampton Hotels. All opinions are 100% mine.

If you have not already heard of the Hampton Chain of Friends Sweepstakes,then now i'm asking you to join the sweepstake! The grand prize winner will receive a free stay for yourself and 100 of your friends at a Hampton for one weekend! Can you imagine how great that would be? To top it all off, the winner will even get $5000 to help pay the tax for the weekend. This is really amazing!



By having 100 of your friends together with you in the hotel would be like you buying the hotel all for yourself and people you know! Can you imagine what fun you could have with your friends or family members? I could already imagine who i would invite if i were to win the grand prize. I would of course invite all my family members, immediate and extended families both! And of course all my friends. I think it would be one crazy weekend. Everywhere i go in the hotel, i'm bound to meet someone i know.

So what are you waiting for? Join the sweepstakes now! It is open to everyone and not only to Hilton Honours members or people who have previously stayed at a Hampton

Pinkcotton's Guide to eBay Shopping

I think i can be considered a very late adopter of eBay shopping. When so many people around me have been bidding like crazy on eBay since time eternal, i'm a little embarrassed to say that i've only started like around 1 month ++ ago. Since, i've had a few friends asking me how do i bid on eBay and such (seems like i'm not the only newbie after all :D), i decided to write a brief guide on bidding on eBay.

My experience with pretty ladies

During the weekend I had 2 experiences with 2 different pretty ladies. Lol.

First one:
On Friday night, I was in the cinema and a pretty slim lady walked into our row and sat next to me. When the movie started, I saw her putting up both her legs on the chair and I smelled something smelly. The smelly foot smell. Keke. At first I didn't think it was her but when she moved a bit i could smell another whiff. Fooh! And when she laughed, I smelled smelly mouth smell! Wth! Luckily for me the 2 seats next to us was empty, so we switched over. Keke.

Second scenario:
Last night while having dinner at a coffeeshop, I saw a young pretty lady who was well groomed and quite pretty. And she sat in the table next to ours. Suddenly I saw her take out a pack of cigarettes and i was like oh nooooooo bcos I normally don choose to sit next to a table of smokers. Well, the pretty petite young lady smokes! And in the aircond section of the coffeeshop too! I was pretty pissed

So there! Guys out there, don't judge a book by it's cover. A pretty face doesn't mean everything. Lol

New Fav Japanese Place for Sushi-Sakae Sushi

Uhoh...ive been ignoring my blog again. I have some product review to post but after taking photos, i'm just too lazy to get my lazy butt off the sofa to blog :( It seems that i only have motivation to edit my food pics...hahahaha.

Recently, we just fell in love with Sakae Sushi. I know it is nothing to shout about compared to some true blue gourmet japanese restaurants that you have to pay an arm and a leg or maybe another arm to eat there...the accessability and price of sakae sushi just appeals to us
