Holy Grail Lipstick...MAC Giddy

Buy here


My Verdict: Praiseworthy. Reunited and it feels soooo good! I purchased Giddy back in the day only to find out it got discontinued in North America(was available in Singapore I believe). Fast forward to 2014, and it's finally here! I purchased a backup, I love it that much! Described as lightheaded pink shimmered with gold, it's a perfect pink for everyday. I wear this alone, or with my holy grail lipgloss from Beaute.

Recent Finds...Hautelook Jbrand and Bansri

Some recent purchases from Hautelook...



My Verdict: Praiseworthy. I recently received my order from Hautelook and ended up keeping just the necklace. The jeans didn't work out so back they went. As for the necklace, the picture doesn't do it justice. In real life it sparkles quite a bit(Swarovski stones)  and is rose gold plated(marking is 925 as well). Price wasn't too bad, so another success story for Hautelook.

Humpday Happenings...Nuba and IG

I had a craving for hummus and after a google search I found Nuba, 

Najib's Special
Chicken Tanook

My Verdict: Praiseworthy. Happy to report my cravings were sated. I enjoyed the chicken tanook platter for the variety, and also ordered a side of tzatziki(not shown). I would pass on the najib's special, but worth a try for first timers(all my friends raved about it, I found it too burnt tasting).
