Chosungah 22 K Beauty




Was honored to be invited to launch of Chosungah 22 in SaSa.

I suppose some may not heard of Chosungah 22, it is an award-winning Korean cosmetics company!

Launch event was held at Arteastiq Social Painting Studio.

Make up artist came all the way from Korea to demonstrate how to create a natural Korean look and we gotten a few beauty tips from him ^.^

Let me show you some of the Chosungah 22 cosmetics...

Blend Fresh Mix (SPA30/PA++) S$58.00

This liquid foundation comes with a sponge applicator and promises to deliver the following:
* long-lasting and faultless coverage
* provide skin with extra moisture and nutrition (wow, skincare foundation sia!)
* whitening, anti-wrinkle and UV protection (SPA30/PA++)
* elevates volume and facial contour (means slimmer face!)
* fills in fine lines (oh god, I need this!)
Can't wait to try this but I still have a few bottles of half used foundations on the table staring at me >.<  金牌败家女


BROW MAKER Brow Tint (3 shades) S$55.00

My natural brows before makeup.  Basically I draw them longer and fill the sparse up.

I am trying the Black Brown shade in purple package.  I had been using eyebrow pencils all my life so this is something different and new to me.  It's tacky.
With pencils we draw eyebrows in "feather strokes", but with this, it's painting eyebrows like chinese calligraphy.  It takes a minute or so to be completely dry, after which it stayed for good 9 hours, no need to touch up at all.  The lasting power is amazing.  The amount of effort to remove these is the same as removing water-proof mascara.

JELLO COLOR KIT Eye Shadow S$60.00
Funky packaging that looks like a pencil case.

Opens up with a mirror and 6 colors.
These looked like any other eyeshadow powders in pots, but in reality, they are not powders.  They are FLUFFY CUSHIONS EYESHADOWS!!!  They are BOUNCY!  You can see them bounce back when your finger press and release, freaking fun to play with!  Texture is something like mousse.

The colors blends smoothly without flaking.  The shades are easy for daily wear and compliments all skin tones.
Colors description from the left:
#22PLUTO [MATTE IVORY]: A primer base color before applying the main color

#22VENUS [SPARKLE PINK]: A pink glitter to apply on the inner corners of your eyes to make them look bigger
#22JUPITER [MATTE BEIGE]: Natural beige brown that creates delicate shading on your eyelids
#22MERCURY [SPARKLE BRONZE]: A sparkling bronze that makes your eyes look deeper and profound
#22MARS [SPARKLE DARK BROWN]: A chocolate deep brown that forms dark points outside the corners of your eyes
#22BLACKHOLE [MATTE BLACK]: A Black that creates dark and bold lines



DUAL LIP TINT & GLOSS (4 shades) S$32.00

Having with me LACE: Orange tint and pink gloss

Applied the orange tint on the inner lips, then pink gloss on the entire lips for Korean gradation lips.
Need to go easy with the gloss as too much can be very thick and sticky.  The tint was very very lasting.  I wipe off the gloss during meal time and the tint "survived" after my meal!  Needs proper removing like eye makeups to remove it cleanly.

RED CHEEK SMOOTHER Blusher (3 shades) S$31.00

It's the first time I seen blushers in tube packaging.
Squeeze the tube and the color will ooze out from the sponge applicator.

Color swatch, from the left:
BERRY ADE, LILAC DROP and SATIN PEACH
Application was extremely easy, just dab dab dab.  All the 3 three shades are very sweet and light with a dewy finish, it's impossible to end up like a opera singer no matter how you apply.  It takes about a minute to settle down.  After 9 hours, it looked as good as freshly applied without fading.  It's the most lasting blusher I had ever used.

Here's the overall look with:
BLACK BROWN Brow Maker Tint
SATIN PEACH Real Cheek Smoother and
LACE Duo Lip Tint & Gloss
Orange Peach colors make me look fairer and refreshing, heehee....

Charee Lashes

*sponsored




I started to put on full make-up when I was 16, however putting on fake lashes was only 4 or 5 years back.

Initially it took about 15 mins to get 1 pair of lashes fixed on nicely.  It's always one eye perfect and the other one takes up a lot of time.  After a few practice, it's just a breeze of less than 2 mins.  Keep practising, trust me, it's worth it.

I always feel that it's very important for a lady to possess some make-up skills, you will enjoy selfies a lot more, heehee....

Back to the topic....., I love lashes, they give me big eyes without plastic surgery.   People who knows me will know that I am born with pea sized eyes.

I can't live without lashes, now Charee lashes are my new love.

Gorgeous Charee lashes!
There are 10 models to chose from, all retailing at a reasonable price of S$7.99 each pair including lash glue.

Charee lashes are very versatile.  Let me start off with natural look....

Charee Lash no.1045  S$7.99
Color: Black   Texture: Synthetic   Length: Medium   Thickness: Thin
Design:  Criss cross, lash length gradually gets longer from the inner to the outer eye

Without Charee lashes.
With Charee lash no.1045.

Big difference right?

This is how Charee lash no. 1045 looks like when I look down.

It's very natural looking with light make-up.  Great for office ladies or for weekends in causal outfits.
It's so light that I forgotten I am wearing lashes after a while.


Charee Lash no.7962  S$7.99
Color: Black   Texture: Human hair   Length: Short   Thickness: Thin
Design:  Lash bone is thin and the lashes are sparse for a natural look.

Wearing Charee lash no.7962.

Charee lash no.7962 is sparse in design which allows my natural lash to "blend" in.

I am wearing Charee lash no.7962, it's as comfortable as my Arale T-shirt.


Charee Lash no.4518 S$7.99
Color: Black   Texture: Human Hair   Length: Long   Thickness: Thick
Design:  Thin lash bone, longer and more lash strands the no.7962

If Charee Lash no.7962 is a day lash, Charee Lash no.4518 is a evening version of it.

An epic pic of one eye with lash, the other one without.
My nose looks enormous here >.<

Charee Lash no.7962 gives a feminine yet innocent look.


Charee Lash no.1313 S$7.99
Color: Black & Brown   Texture: Synthetic   Length: Long   Thickness: Thick
Design:  Criss cross design; lashes at the 2 ends are shorter with the longest length at the centre.

Wearing Charee Lash no.1313 in brown.
These lashes are so voluminous that I don't even need much eye shadow to enhance further.  The lashes are fanning my cheeks beautifully each time I blink.  电死你 有木有!

Men don't really notice if you change your hair color (blacks and browns looks the same to them unless you do something shocking enough) or put on different color lipstick (men are color blind).  But if you put on fake lashes.... YES!  Men and everybody will notice right away!

I am saying these cos' my hubby once looked at me and said: "It's amazing how those few strands of little hair can make such a big difference."

Left pic botak eyes without lashes against right pic eyes with Charee lashes.
Enuff said.
Charee lashes gives eyes those definition and sparks with a instant charm every woman desire.
