Hot Chocolate Is Revived!!

Last year I closed down one of my Blog: Hot Chocolate because I did not have time to manage two blogs,so I decided to close down Hot chocolate & maintain this blog for all uses of personal, Cosplay, Review etc~

Due to college Purpose, I'm reviving Hot chocolate. My lecturer wants us to open a blog for our Homework as it will be easy for them to check our work & also easy for us to arrange our portfolio in the future. I already have 3 blog, so I do not want to open another new one instead i revive my old one, also because this blog was used to put my fashion & homework stuff before so i'll just keep it update.

As for this Blog : Elyon Journey Of Life will still be used for all my personal stuff, cosplay, review etc~ It will not be closed down. I actually post more on this other blog but i will try to maintain balance on both sides so readers can check out both of my blogs from time to time.

Also, I've changed both of my blog layout for a new look.. Photo banner will temporary still remain until i got a better photo XD!

Please keep looking out for my blog as i'll be more active on blogging from today onwards. I'll not slck off like before

Love, Babyelyon

Koji Honpo Dolly Wink 2nd workshop

I was glad when i heard Koji is going to do a 2nd workshop for Dolly Wink. Last year When I know about the news, it was already to late to sign up also I had Cosplay Event During the same day. At 1st i thought it will be just a simple hang around and stuff, but i remember reading a post about the work shop last year, IT WAS SO GOOD. This year I finally got the chance to join this Workshop it was A sucess and i Would like to to say "お疲れ様" to allthe stuff and also Ogawa-san&Mikano-san that flew from japan for this workshop.

Actually i did not took many picturesof the workshop cause i met few of my cosplay friends and we started chatting (actually more of gossiping) XD!! The event started a lil boring cause I personally dislike slideshows, but I do learn more about the history &products of Koji and makes me wanna support their product more.

My 1st eyelashes was from Koji Spring heart series. I Love it somuch! it looks natural! But because ,its my 1st lashes, i did not know how to take care of it so it spoiled. Then I tried Using Dolly wink Products (Review from previous blog post). at 1st the price were shocking~so i always wait for it to be on discount ><!! Most important lesson~ All Koji's Fake eyelashes are Handmade~

Back to today's workshop, When we walk in, We saw the table line up wif baskets of make up products. (p/s: See the eyelash Curler there? It Is Extremely GOOD! Hosnestly! It does curl our lashes up to the max)

During the slideshow, we were introduced to their old& new products

This is one of Koji's New Product, Lash Concierge. This line of product is focusing on female that wanted to put fake lashes to look pretty but also not too dramatic at the same time. As we all know, Dolly wink eyelashes is more fora dramatic ,kawaii look. For this, they tone it down and also called it the Natural Fake eyelashes. For each number,they got a percentage written at the side. It is use to indicate how natural the lashes will be~

So I always say Japanese are genius! because some ppl may not suit a certain design of fake lashes, Koji actually did a tester for ppl to test it on before they buy it. This is very very considerating~ Also this is handmade too XD!

After The slideshow, We finally had our hands on the product for testing. They were kind for us to test their new Lash Concierge. I choose number 8 for a natural but slightly dramatic look. But to me, it still looks natural. LOVE IT TO MAX! KOJI! PLS PUT IT ON SELL ASAP!  

Because I used to put fake lashes, I did it before they started teaching the tutorial~ Oops~ They also teach on how to put on the bottom fake lashes,how to clean them,store them and how to draw eyebrow, I appreciate those tips and lesson.

Last but not least, Thank you for all the Door Gift. I Really love it! 

Love, Babyelyon

Recent cosplay~ (event version2013)

OH YEA!!! finally updating my cosplay life of the year.. lol~as u all see the title named event version, mean only event i attend this year, will update my photoshoots of the year soon

This year i did not attend many events. i was suppose to go for an event at penang but dueto some personal issue, i did not went.. QAQ... My 1st event of the year was C2AGE which was organized by HELP College at thier campus. I only went for Day2 for that event, actually i wasn't planning to go but i had a group so i went. The campus was very~~high.. 1 thing i super love their college is their escalator~ because as a fashion designer, we gotta carry alot of material,tools&dummy to college most of the time..nmy college only had stairs~ QAQ

Back to my cosplay...It was my 1st time having a planned group for an event, i used to always cosplay solo cause i couldn't find group/partner and its easier to walk around to meet friends. Finally i had a group for an event, YAY!! Thank you my dear besties mushroom for the invite to join the group of my favourite anime and I get to cosplay my Idol anime version AKB0048 Watanabe Mayu type03 aka Mayuyu~ 

I'm love AKB48,the top female Idol group in japan & my oshimen(Idol) is Mayuyu~ she is alsothe same age as me and is older than me for 14 days~ XD! Back to topic~ because i once cosplayed as Ranka Lee Snow version (can refer it HERE) I thought it was special and AKB0048 do have white costume but only appear twice, so I suggested to my group to do the special white version instead of the normal red and black checkered one. not saying more~ITS PICTURE TIME!

Day2 I cosplayed as Ranka Lee again~ with another white dress again~ which was almost the same as last year but different version... This version appeared at the very last scene of Sayonara no Tsubasa the movie. It was the scene where Ranka came out and stand in front ofthe crashed Macross after Alto's disappearance and Sheryl went into come. At that moment, Ranka sang Hoshi Kira while looking up in the sky believing Alot is coming back, also as the ending of the movie.

Being myself

Hey yo~ I know I did not blog for quite a while, and yes, i do miss blogging. I was very active during my semester break but ever since my new sem started, i couldn't find time out for blogging, everyday is assignment,coursework, competition... design students work really really hard and is very stressful.

Lately I've been thinking, am I trying to hard to be myself? I really don't know, I feel like myself is fading away, I feel so lost. I had this dream few weeks ago and it is stuck inside my head until now. I couldn't remember the Major part of the dream but I remember someone accused me for something I did not do, I reply with just a happy smile and take all the blame. Then a guy walked up to me and say "你不要以为笑笑就可以抹掉一切，看看你心里深处就能发现你的痛苦" means: Don't think that if you smile you cover up your feeling, look deep inside you, you will see how hurt you are. Not only the dreams, even my friend told my to show what I feel. I remember talking to my senior the other day, she said she can read people, so I asked her to read me, this is what she said about me: You are a very happy girl,you don't show much of your feelings, you are pleasing people too much. Stop listening to other people.

I admit, I do hide my feelings, I don't really show what I really feel, but I think is not necessary to show it out cause no one really cares do they? They will just think I'm annoying and trying to attract attention. I've been like that every since I'm in High school. I don't know why but I always get haters without knowing them, they said I'm annoying and I'm like "Hey, do I even know you,i also didn't do anything to you". Is it just me thinking to much or I just so happen to have this " Annnoying Aura"??

I'm really lost, these days I've been like a crazy girl randomly laughing alone myself, but after a moment,i realize my face change, I start thinking,am I covering myself for something? what am I covering for? Why do I need to cover myself?

What should I do? I don't really know myself~

I know this is along boring post with no pictures, but i'm really confused and stress these days. Anyone can help? I doubt so, right? Cause this is my personal problem~
love,Babyelyon~

Short update

Guess readers are running away cause my blog was dead. Lol. Well, I'm gonna do a short update of my recent hectic college life.

I've started my college for about 3 weeks, and projects, homework, assignment all are coming. I know that this is just the beginning, but, is already like hell @@. One of the project we oni use 1 weeks to finish, was glad it was a group work.

I bet you guys may think that design course is as easy as an apple pie.. well, truly, NO! Hell no! We suffer sleepless night like other student, or maybe worst than that cause we probably won't sleep for few days just to finish up our assignments. We do not only carry books but materials, bunch of rulers, toolbox, literally everything. Gosh, is really heavy.

These days I'm really busy cause I'm also incharged to buy tools for my classmates, so I'll disappear now and then. Don't be suprise. XP miss me, leave an email. Fb msg i probably wont look at it.

so ya, miss me people!!!

Dejavu Lasting-fine Eyeliner |*Review*|

Heard of Dejavu? I've heard that eyeliner is very good,too bad i've already had eyeliner and I haven't finished yet so I did not get my hands on it. Luckily I join this giveaway by Vivi Malaysia and I won a Dejavu Eyeliner~ YAY TO ME!!

Their new product~

was lucky to get the colour Deep Black

This is actually gel pencil eyeliner~(or so I called it that way~)

instructions on the pen to remind us 

so to protect or eyeliner and keep it in good condition

Like we all know gel pencil is easy to break and easy to dry up and it is hard for us to draw. Just follow the steps and it is well kept =w=d

this is the tip of how i just newly open~

It is flat, soits hard to draw when its new, it is better after that

Tested on my hand~

colour,not really super black but maybe a few layers its good enough~

left: not drawn
right: with the eyeliner

I would say,I Loved how smooth it is when I draw.After I draw2-3 layers, the colour is as dark as a Liquid eyeliner.

This is the back of the package~

Highly Defined eyes

Clearly Defined, natural

Smooth

agree to all!!

This eyeliner comes in 3 various colour Dark Brown (Soft Look), Real black(Impact look), Deep Black (Dramatic look). It is also stated that it is sweat resistance and smudge resistance. Did I forgot to mention about it at the begining? Yes i did the smudge proof test, and it really did not smudge

some instructions etc~

Now for the sweat test~ ok~ water test~is almost the same right~~ sweat=water

Basically I on the tap and put my hands in

i took it out, the colour still remains

p/s: I did not wipe the water off

it smudges if it had water on it

smudgetest+water/sweat = fail~

 Conclusion, I liked this product, Loved the colour, Loved how smooth it is. 1 day, I will test its 24hour lasting power and will share it with you all again~

Love Babyelyon~
