small ranzuki+kerastase review and one month till tokyo-celebreation-post

this lovely was in my mail today-a whole volume of Ranzuki (moreru?)dedicated to gyaru make up.
I find it very helpful,they show you many step by step tutorials for base,eye lips make up (and also for hair styles ),explain why you should use highlighters,shaders,show you different type of fake eyelashes, and a guide which make up brands items best to use.

anyone wanna see scans?

uhm....i know i`ve forgotten some stuff,but i`m too lazy to bother right now..

gonna watch "letters to julia" with my mom tomorrow, thursday i`m gonna meet up with natty,alice jojo and co..
whatelse...my mom and her bf bought a car,its a mazda (forgot the full name).....however......
irony is as soon as they bought it my mothers bf suffered from a herniated disk(?bandscheibenvorfall)^^;,which causes him having to get an operation next week!
my mother is super angry now because she was planning to go on vacation with him :(
generally she`s in super bad mood lately, especially because i kind of warned her that
i might prolong my stay in japan!!
yes, i figured out i`m getting a 15 months visa ,so i really would like to make a use of it.
so i``m thinking about adding another 2-3 months to my study ,which end about middle of august.?
meaning i want to stay in tokyo till november/december 2011.yay!!
it seems to be possible without dropping out of university for a half year and loosing family subsidy..we`ll see!

Kerastase "Resistance"series review:

in one of my last entries, someone asked me to do a review on kerastase`s hair products.
i now tried the whole résistance series for about 2 weeks and all i can say is that they are the best product i ever used for my hair...

the products i`m using are as follows:
1.kerastase-shampoo bain de force(shampoo)
2.kerastase-ciment thermo-activated restructuring milk)
3.kerastase- ciment anti usure(mask)

on to my review^^:


4 from 5 hairdressers advised this series of kerastase to me ,since my hair has been suffering a lot of damage in the last months, because of bleaching,perms ,blowdrying and ironing.
my hair isn`t as dead like you`d expect it too be after these procedures, however it become much thinner ,they ends look worn out ,dries out soon and it has lost a lot of its shinyness..
before i started using kerastase i was kinda desperated because i`ve already gone through trying out a lot of different hairthreatment products like john frieda promising to help weakened to strenghten and nutralise and actually in the end doing quite the opposite of it, leaving me with more dried out,broken looking hair than before.So no wonder i was sceptical , spending a shitload of money on testing hairproducts again,but i`m glad i did!
having used bain de force shampoo plus cement thermique for only one time ,i really could feel and see how my hair has became stronger.after washing and adding cerment thermique ,brushing hair was much easier than ever!..plus i didn`t loose any hairs!!
blowdrying it,it looked less frizzy and more voluminous.also when touching ,it felt really smooth and strong...
ok,that isn`t the only reason why i`m so obsessed with kerastase, because hair often feels health y right after washing but after some hours.....
however it was different with kerastase!!it stayed smooth for next day and the day after till i washed it again...it didn`t went dry a bit x3as already said i`ve been using it for some time now and i really can feel a difference to my old hair,so i can recommend kerastase to anyone who`s having weakened and dried out hair^^

~end of review(sorry if my way of writing reviews is kinda confusing to you guys,i actually was really tired when writing)

by the way i finally booked my flight,i`ll arrive in tokyo in the morning of sept.27th..not on the 20th like i planned too ;_;

totally forgot..I PASSED both BIG japanese exams,i`m soo happy and relieved...it were examinations of hell ;_; at least the joyo kanji part!
