Teaser:

So after I finished watching the teaser, my thoughts were. So they are not going for the cute/sexy concept and I really liked the beat. I was excited to see what SNSD had in store for the Sones. But the more I watched the teaser the more confused I was. first of all. What is with the outfits, what is their actual concept. So to answer my own questions I decided to wait for the full MV and see if it will answer my questions.

So the mv started of with SNSD in a pink room being all cute and then a guy rings the bell. It then changes in to lit room (that is pink) and we see all of them in clothes that would be considered hip hop clothes?? I don't know what the name of the style is. But any ways we see them trying to be all cool (sunny with her bright purple hair) I really loved their clothing here though. The beginning part sound that it will fit very well with the part we heard in the teaser. and then after that it goes into the song with a different background (we all know its a studio) that looks like the streets. They are all wearing a different outfits. I loved some and don't like some.

in between the song/dance they were showing solo shots of SNSD being on a date with a guy. Showing them being all cute again. and that goes on until around 2:05 where they go into the chorus. The beat totally changes. That is where it start the I get confused. It sounds as if its a whole new songs starting from there.

In the chorus part (which is the beat that we hear in the teaser) it shows them doing a dance that doesn't really fit into the whole choreograph. The outfits doesn't make sense to me either. Yoona and Hyoyeon starst to rap afterwards. Its nice to show a different skill they never really showed before.

After all the whole MV/songs doesn't go very smooth. Also the concept is still a question to me. Looking at the outfits, dance and song. The concept is still not clear. Here is a style breakdown written by allkpop. and I pretty much have the same thoughts (click here)

Do you have different thoughts? comment below and let me know ^_^

Please do not write hateful comments, all that has been written is my thoughts.

BB Cream

BB cream, also known as Blemish Balm, Blemish Base or Beblesh Balm, is a cosmetic item sold mainly in East and Southeast Asia, although larger beauty brands are increasingly transferring BB creams to European markets as well. more info click here

I have used in total of 3 different bb cream and I have used them now all more then 3 months.

The first one will be the Skinfood Peach Sake Pore BB Cream (30ml) I got this one for €12

      

This has the following properties:

- Provides a natural light coverage on the face
- Does not grayish complexion
- Peach extracts will take care of oily skin and soothe
- Sake ensures a good control tallow
- Regular use reduces pores and smoothes the skin
- Has a nice natural fruity fragrance
- The SPF20/PA + protects the skin from the sun

This BB Cream also smells like Peach, and it has 2 different shades light and normal beige. I purchased the normal beige, when I first used it, it did cover up the red spots I have on my face but it doesn't cover up my dark circles. Which was a shame because it smelled really nice and covered really well except the dark circle. It is also not sticky even after the whole day wearing it. This bb cream is suitable for combines skin.

The next one is Missha Perfect Cover (20ml) I got this one for €19

      

This has the following properties:

- High protection against UV radiation: SPF 42/PA + + +
- Reduces pigmentation
- Prevents skin aging
- Hydrates the skin, all day
- Reduces blemishes such as acne or skin blemishes
- The skin will look natural

This BB Cream sells in 2 different colouers #21 Light Beige and the #23 natural Beige. This BB cream is slightly better than the Skinfood, this ones was able to cover up the red spots and the dark circle's I had. Only the disadvantage was that it has a grey undertone and it takes some time before it changes into your own skin colour. This is also suitable for combines skin.

And the last one is the Skin79 Hot Pink Super Plus BB Cream (40ml) I got this for €19

      

This has the following properties:

- Gives the face a natural look
- Contains almost only natural ingredients
- Perfect coverage, but closes in contrast to a foundation of the pores not depend
- Replaces not only your foundation, but also your moisturizer
- Conceals facial blemishes, pigmentation, acne and other blemishes
- Regenerates the skin and reduces wrinkles, fine lines and acne
- Contains Arbutin for a solid color
- Contains Phyto-Complex for optimum nutrition of the skin
- Contains extracts of green tea, sunflower seeds and rice for skin protection
- Protects the skin against UV A and B radiation SPF25/PA + +
- This BB Cream is oil free and does not feel sticky

Last but not least the Skin79 and I have to say that I LOVE THIS ONE, this one come in 2 different colours as well Skin79 Hot Pink Super Plus Beblesh Balm and the Skin79 VIP Gold Label Super Plus Beblesh Balm. This one covers everything my dark circle and red spots even some acne that I have, this is like the perfect one for me. and the nice thing is that is has a bump (can't remember how to spell that word ^^") only one disadvantage is that is has a really strong grey undertone but it tends to go away when its been blended with your skin. This BB cream is suitable for all skins types.

Circle lenses

A little information for the people that doesn't know what circle lenses are:

Circle contact lenses make one's eyes appear larger and come in a variety of colors and effects. They are a new fashion trend in Japan, China, Korea and Taiwan. The diameter of regular contact lenses that are sold in the United States are on average 14mm–16mm, similar to the diameter of the cosmetic circle contact lenses. For more information click here.

So I have recently started using circle lenses, as I only orderd 2 different colours to try out. I ordered the normal ones which the outer ring is black and I ordered brown ones. each pair I can wear them for 3 months. The most popular brand of it is CEO, the one I ordered is Phantasee.

The first time I wore the black ones I looked really weird as I didn't wear any make-up. After that I tend to wear my circle lenses with some eye make-up so that I won't look ridiculous. Recently I have been wearing my brown circle lenses. As it looked like a light brown instead of dark brown it really gave me away that I am wearing a different colour, but since it is now spring I tend to wear more eye make-up to match it.

This is the brown circle lenses, I didn't take picture of the black ones but you can imagine where it is brown here is black.

  

I purchased this on a dutch site called beautylenzen I purchased them for around €20. They are soft lenses and the quality of it is really good.

   

Right: me with black lenses, Left: with brown lenses.

I won't say that I will recommend it or not recommend it, because some people eyes are very sensitive and some aren't and this is after all my opinion. BUT if you really want to get circle lenses then I would say go for it. I hope that this has helped a bit for you gous that want to get circle lenses ^^.

China Glaze Crackle nail polish

Hey everyone ^^ I am back with another review, as promised before.

This time the review is the crackle nail polish from China Glaze. I now already own them for about 4/5 months and I have to admmit. I am in love with it. So I purchased 3 different colours, they are Black Mesh (black), Oxidized aqua (light blue) and Fault Line (purple).

(left without flash, right with flash)

  

I have used all tree colours right now and I love the oxidized aqua the most as it is a  metallic colour. As the stargazer one that i review before, I realize that there is this chemical smell in it when applied. I am assuming that it is the chemical that causes the crackle. But having to find the right colour combination was a little bit hard for me as I don't own a lot of colour except for black and some dark colours. But if you own a lot of different colours it wont be a problem to do some experiment with the colours. What I also have noticed is that when I use the Stargazer it have apply new nail polish after 2/3 weeks but with the Chine Glaze it stays perfet for at least a month before it starts off chipping.



In this picture I already have the nail polish on for about 3 weeks and it still looking like when I applied it. If it was the Stargazer it would have chipped off most of it.
