Last week i recieved a package in the mail from Miss X who helped me CP some gorgeous mac items in USA!
Just in case u didnt know, MAC is two times the price in Japan compared to USA so its way too expensive here. Thankfully Miss X helped me out! I cant say who Miss X is cos i dont want anyone to bug her for a CP [custom purchase] She knows who she is and she knows i am mad grateful to get these items!!!
What she helped me get
From Style black collection: 2 mineralize eyeshadows!
From christmas collection: 6 sorceress eye shadows
From Style Black collection: Glit By Association
I tried to buy these eyeshadows in Hong Kong when i was there but there were sold out [island-wide according to the SA]
From Style Black Collection: Young Punk
Style Black collection isnt new and i know tons of people already done swatches so i wont bother but i’ll try to do an EOTD for them sometime next week?
From Christmas collection [i am guessing , i dont keep up to date on collection names] : 6 Sorceress Eyeshadows
I’m going to do some swatches and looks with this but i’m going to need some time cos i think i can do more than one EOTD look with this palette. And we all know how slow i am on doing those. Dont know why since i wear a lot of makeup everyday <– i need all the help i can get ok? XD
In other news, i went for some yummy cake at Comme Ca Cafe yesterday
They make wonderous cakes
This is a REAL cake with roses made out of mango slices
My absolute fave : Caramel banana
Note: none of the cakes in the pictures above are fake, they are on display but are real. When u order a slice, the attendant will cut a piece directly from them!!!
What we had:
Figs!
Strawberries
Obviously i had my caramel banana XD
Yasumi-chan, you and i are sooo going when u come to Tokyo!!!
Today i went shopping with Reina-san and we bought WAYYY too much. [My excuse? i havent been shopping for a while..not that you can tell]
I’m too preoccupied at the moment to post pics of stuff we bought, will do it in my next entry but i promised my ne-san i would post a pic of this
Ne-san, this is the cutter i was telling you about in our phone conversation today. Isnt it cute?
I forsee some funny looking bentos in the future
Sidenote: A lot of you asked me if i actually make bentos for my husband.
The answer is yes XD [all bentos above made by me]
And if you are wondering..what on earth is Yumeko preoccupied with?
Answer:
Yes i am completely obsessed with watching my korean drama “You’re Beautiful”
New episodes are out on wed and thurs , which explains my lack of a proper post XD
I really really want this pig rabbit plushie. And its hairclip XD
Heck i want plushies of An.Jell!
Watch this space, plushie-making time may have to commence this weekend AHAHAHAHA
Till then, hope everyone is well
XOXO Yumeko
OMG that mango rose cake looks SOOO good. It must taste super awesome too. The cakes here in Canada are too sweet and rich, so its not that good. The good cakes only come from the Asian bakeries.
Your bento boxes look so good too, I wouldn’t mind being related to you, haha =P

I have been thinking about getting that same christmas palette from MAC but I have had no time to stop by the store and swatch the colors to make sure I like it.
Those cakes look so yummy and so do your bentos.
OMG cakes look extremely delicious! Your bentos look lovely too!
And I actually thought CP meant “ca pok”(means take in Malay I think) …LOL.
ca pok haha i dont think i heard that before!

You know, you made me hooked up on You’re beautiful!!! Bad-bad girl!

Amazing cakes!!! Looks so yummy. Japanese patisseries are the best. LOL
And your obento look so oishii.. Urayamashii na! I just made my first kyaraben couple days ago for a Japanese class and it was so amateur. I will post on my blog so you can take a look.. Maybe you can give me some tips hahaha~
I can’t wait to see your EOTD for the MAC products especially the new Sorceress eyeshadows! Miss X was very kind to do a CP, glad that it was successful~
Ohh the MAC eyeshadows look gorgeous, I didn’t realize they have so pretty eyeshadows!
And the cakes, ohhh the cakes, they are a piece of art, that is probably good too! ^^
OMG *_* those cakes are absolutely gorgeoussss!!
And yay for your haul, if I would have gotten the same eyeshadows too ;D
aww I love the fact that you make bentos for your husband, I think it’s very sweet. They look really good!
Ohhh Myyyy Gawddd!!! Those bentos are so pretty and yummy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Awww you’re really good
Loving all those cakeys too! Hehe I think I need to explore London more, I’m sure they have tasty delicacies xD The only problem is the price tag hehe ^o^
The cakes looks delicious and too pretty to eat! I bet I’d like fruit a lot more if it was placed like that :O!
And your bentos look really good too. Food that can’t be bought and is made with love taste great
aww u are very sweet!
fruit is expensive in japan so we treat it with a lot of care i feel XD
I LOVE FIGS~~~ so that cake is just awesome…. I’m definitely going to ask you about places to eat once I get myself to Japan one day hahahaahah your food pics are sooo good…. I didn’t know MAC is twice the price in Japan… that’s too bad coz I love their lippies the best. But I know you guys have heaps of Japanese cosmetics which does the job fine with the array of colours and stuff
oh m y ooooosssshhhhadhahsd i love asian countries hahahah they have the best cakes. i think i almost died when i walked into a cake/bakery for the first time in japan. i wanted EVERYTHING!

I wish I can make bento boxes as cute as yours. My hubby has this thing for bento boxes and I’ll show him the photo when I get home tonight

Wow, those MAC eyeshadows are so lovely and dramatic~ Too bad they are so expensive in Japan!
I can’t believe those roses on the cake are made by mango slices~ What effort goes into making them~! Those cakes are like artwork~!
oh how yummy!! I love nice looking cakes!!
Young Punk from the MAC collection is such a hot colour, would love to see an EOTD with that from you sweet lady. Your cake pics look so delish…I’m salivating.
Lovely looking cakes! Can imagine how yummy it will be and I love caramelize banana too with chocolate syrup!
And those bento…. pretty!
=D
I love the MAC eyeshadow set!!! I’m so getting it!!!
Lovely mango cake too!!! Which cafe is this? pray tell!!
comme ca cafe XD [its in the title heehee]
Website is here http://www.cafe-commeca.co.jp/
Nice MAC picks!! Everyone is loving those e/s from what I hear!
And mmmm FOOD PORN for me!! Gawd that looks sooo GOOOOD!!! And fresh too! 
LOL! You and your kawaii bentos!
tweet me if u wan the blusher for MAC new range
Ahhh, can’t wait to see your plushies
I’m lemming for the stickers, hehehe. AND the hairpin, tho I don’t think I’ll have the courage to cut my hair that short.
Those cakes are just awesome!!! That rose-mango one made me do a double-take to make sure it’s real, lol.
Nice mac goodies you got! The mineral eyeshadows looks so nice T-T I can’t wait to see a EOTD!
And SO MUCH GOOD CAKE yuummm… I should go and eat lunch naow….
OMG! I want to eat those pretty cakes! Must go check this out next time I’m in Japan, although I’m sure Narita doesn’t have this cafe.
I didn’t get the blue and the purple e/s from the style black collection but your picture makes me want young punk. i was trying to convince myself that I don’t need various shades of purple e/s but it’s def not working.
I heart the mango cake!
I finally got around to using the Lucky Style Up Comb and I am in love with it. It does not rip hair out like with scrunchies and it stays put for so long! I love it!
Aww…so sweet of Miss X to do a CP for you! Enjoy your goodies!! And my goodness! Those cakes look gorgeous! Too beautiful to eat!! ?-?
And you are one amazing cook! All those bentos look delicious! You should invite me to your house for a meal =P LOL
And I love dramas too!! That pig/rabbit is so cute! =D
the purple eyeshadow reminds me of what i had at aritaum.
hi yumeko! i haven’t been here in ages too! those cakes look delicious. I’ve been craving for sweets for so long now.. hubby thinks it’s not good to eat ice cream but I love it.. and of course, i try to stay away from it too so. yeah.. looks sooo yummmuy
yay you got some of the style black shadows! I ? young punk – and gilt by association
the sorceress shadows look really pretty – can’t wait to see you wearing all those pretty purples and blues! and omg those cakes look too pretty to eat! especially that mango rose cake!
A wonderful friend of mine from the States also mailed me an early X’mas present. The MAC Young Punk eyeshadow. However, I’m not good at using shimmery shadows. Would you care to do a EOTD so I can try it out myself too. Thank you in advance.
i did a look but i used other colors to. i think this shadow would be difficult for me to use in just day to day since its quite dark. i shall try another look another time!
