A year ago, I did my first eyelash extension at Espoir in Shibuya. My experience at Espoir was really good. I instantly fell in love with how convenient it was to have extensions. I can sleep, bathe, do everything with them on and there isn't a need for mascara.

 Finally, I found an authentic Japanese eyelash & nail salon in Singapore ! I was also super lucky to get a slot on Thursday because Thursday is the day that Nao Go-san (the director of Graceous) does the lashes ! Nao-san is really skillful and careful making my extensions. I felt so comfortable and relaxed letting her do my lashes. Nao-san is so very patient and kind. The service at Graceous is so good.


Front Entrance

Ambience

Graceous has a very cozy homely feel, very soothing and relaxing. I get to listen to nice indie/lounge background music while my lashes are being extended.

Consultation Time

Nao-san does the basics of quizzing me on general questions related to my physical health condition.

Next - Nao-san studies my natural lashes in detail. She gets me to pan my eyes from up to down - following the motion of her hand, in order for her to assess the shape and nature of my lashes. She also asks about my daily makeup routine and suggests the most suitable style for me.

Thirdly: I get to choose the lashes based on my personal preference - there are a few areas to consider: Style, Curl, Length:

Upper Lashes

Style
- Gorgeous (unlimited lashes)
- Natural (80 lashes)
- Quick (60 lashes)

I told Nao-san I wanted something wild & wow ! So we both agreed to choose the Gorgeous style. Nao-san also mentioned that for the lashes at the far left and right ends of the eyes, these lashes are longer and fan out - so the effect makes the lashes very visible.

Curl
→ J Curl
→ C Curl
→ L Curl
→ SC Curl (which is not in the menu list)

Nao-san suggested the SC curl which is more curly & sexier than the C curl ! Yes - I chose the SC curl !

Length
8mm-13mm

Lower Lashes
20 or 30 or 40 or 50 lashes

I'm thrilled that Graceous does lower lashes extensions too. I decided to experiment with 20 lashes first. The result turned out so good - I will certainly do more lower lashes next time !

Arigatou~gozaimasu !

Nao Go-san is so knowledgeable and helpful. She is very skillful. The treatment is absolutely painless. When starting on the lower lash extension, there was a slight irritation, but that went away very quickly and my eyes got used to it. Through out the appointment, there wasn't any smell of glue or chemicals.
Nao-san also gave me a guide on how to look after my eye lashes. Get your copy from her when u do your extensions at Graceous.

  I really love the final result ! The lashes can last for 2 to 4 weeks and you can touch up at Graceous to maintain it.

Looks so natural...

hahaha ! I just can't stop admiring my lashes!

Close up view ! You can see how the lashes are longer and fan out at the ends. Nice.

Thanks for reading ! Good night !

Makeup → YSL Rouge Pur Couture Lipstick

 I couldn't have been more thrilled to receive this as my birthday gift! It's gorgeous!

I'm an absolute sucker and totally obsessed with this!

Item: YSL Rouge Pur Couture Lipstick

Color Swatch: 19 Fuchsia Pink

The Touch: → An SPF15 moisturizing formula that coats a full coverage of silky satin finishing on your lips. It is smooth as butter.  

It totally won't put feel heavy on your lips. Also, the natural extract is able to provide all-day hydration! 

→ It is well-pigmented and so will be able to survive 5 to 6 hours and won't wears off only a little as you eat or drink. 

The Scent: → Light distinct fragrance. Smells like a sensuous bouquet of roses. 

The Packaging: → I love the luxurious, ritzy, square gold tube with the YSL stamp even on the red pigment. Absolutely fit for a princess. 

What r u waiting for? Get it now! It's perfect for a Valentine's gift ! *wink*

OOTD → Halloween Night

This is my first time celebrating Halloween. I've never been to a Halloween party before and I don't think I am good at acting scary, so I decided to go to the party as a cutie kitty.

My makeup skills certainly sucks. I've never painted leopard spots on my face before.

When it is too late to learn slowly, Youtube becomes your best friend. I found some videos and subsequently spent around 45 minutes to draw the prints. Phew ! I think the result wasn't too bad for a first timer.

OOTD:

Top & Bottom: Bershka (the leopard top is extremely soft and fluffy and it feels very light and well ventilated. I didn't feel hot at all even in the midst of a large crowd.)

Cat ears hair band: From a random store at Bugis village.

Makeup Items Used:

Foundation → 3ConceptEyes Glossing Waterful Foundation

Surprisingly my make up was pretty intact and looked good after an entire night pre-drinking along the river bank and subsequent partying at Zouk ! It didn't feel oily, nor sticky and no smudges.

 

Eyeshadow → 3CE Cosmestic One Color Eyeshadow → Valenti

Photo credited to Chica Display. I opted to use my finger tips to apply the eye shadow. It was easier to get it on the skin.

 

Leopard Prints

1st: Use Maybelline HyperSharp Liner to draw the outer leopard circles on your face.

2nd: Use the 3CE cream shadow - Golden Nude as the gold pigment print. Fill in the circle by brush. As this is a delicate filling, suggest you not to use your fingers. Stick to the brush instead.

 

 

Cheeks:

1st: Use the cream blusher - Coral Coral. It gives you a natural peachy look.

2nd: Use the Maybelline HyperSharp Liner to draw the cat whiskers.

 

And finally wala ! Here's the finished look:
