Have you used an inside liner before?
I never felt there was a need for one as i thought u can just use a normal liquid liner XD
But when i read the glowing reviews in an issue of AGEHA, i decided i had to try it out
Diane Kleger Inside Liner [About USD$13?]
Close up of the brush
Pros:
- easy to use, brush makes it really easy compared to using a normal liquid liner
- dries quickly
- gives your eyes more dimension as promised but u can use a normal liquid liner too, u just have to be more patient?
Cons
- to have to buy another product for my eyes which has a short shelf life seems wasteful. i tend to throw out mascaras after a month and i dont think i would keep this far longer than that?
- difficulty to find, i hunted in almost 4 stores before i found it
Overall:
For those of you who arent aware, i only wear liquid liner on my eyelid and pencil eyeliner on my waterline. I cant wear pencil eyeliner on my eyelid, dont ask me why as i dont know either XD it just doesnt seem to turn out as nice. I like how this looks and how easy it is to apply but i am hesistant at times to have makeup too close to my eyeballs XD If i dont wear it constantly, i kinda dont think there is a point to repurchase.
And as promised in my previous post, here is the EOTD using the mac products i bought recently!
Sorry about the stray hair in the pic, i should have tidied up my hair before taking the pic XD
Products used
I used the lower 3 purple shades of the MAC 6 sorceress eyeshadow palette and MAC Style Black Young Punk in the corner of my eyes. I think YoungPunk is too dark a shade to wear just on its own but my day to day wear. I might do a night look with it [darker smokier look?] another time ^^
In my last post, i also mentioned i was having dinner at ShinOkubo [Koreantown here in Tokyo] and someone asked what i was having…so here are pics from the restaurant
That spicy chicken is to die for, the husband and i are very much addicted to it. Can anyone tell me what its korean name is?
its a very basic sorta place but the food is oh so good!
Chanpon [i dont know how to spell it]
Jajiangmen
Speaking of korean food, a friend of mine just got back from a trip to korea and bought me a present
Yup a korean book on making lunchboxes!
I’m excited to add more korean dishes to my bentos but i cant read a single word in this book XD
The pictures are all very pretty though so i’ll try to guess what i can. maybe i should buy a korean dictionary? There doesnt seem to be many words so i might just need to figure out the seasonings?
In other news, i cant believe the year is almost over! I started buying some stuff/stationary to get ready for New Year 2010! [its the year of the tiger!!]
We dont tend to do christmas as much over here [its not a public holiday in Japan] but New Year is a big thing here <3
And lastly shoutout to one of my besties
Happy Birthday Takeo!!!!
You are truly one of a kind. Never change ok? Love you always!
XOXO Yumeko
Edit: BigBang has put out a new japanese song and i love it!
KOE WO KIKASETE [Let me hear your voice] by BigBang
What do you think?
Very pretty eOtd!
never heard of inside liner till now!
Yay for the yummy food! I love korean food too! I need to get my butt down to tsuruhashi!
i saw that issue of ageha too! Thanks for letting us know how the product was!
i never know there’s inside liner! love your EOTD!
i’ve never tried Jajiangmen, gotta look around for local Korean restaurant now..
I seriously love your eye shots! i love your makeup! Your blending skill is awesome and your eyes look gorgeous
Thanks for sharing
Looking good, dearie! I never use eyeliner since I wear glasses all the time.. I always feel like it’s a bit of a waste of time since I think most people can’t see past my glasses anyways. Hehehe.
Inside liner? Oh what people have to come with after the recession!
Does it transfer to the lower lash after a few hours? That’s the problem I have with my Urban Decay pencil! I’ll try the MUFE after I’m done with my UD.
Yummy looking food! Nothing like that in Portsmouth! Well, the tandoori fish here is something but one does get tired of it eventually XD
XD they make a product for everything in japan
i only wear liquid liners on my upper lid and they have never transferred to my lower lash
on my lower lash, i wear mufe and they never run on me. ^^
i tried banila co in humid weather and they ran on me T-T
ooh tandoori fish! tat sounds good too
Chajangmyeon!!! I love black bean noodles
Brings back memories of Seoul.
Inside liner? My mum does that using a normal eyeliner. =D
Pretty pretty eotd and foooddd. I love the purple.
I’ve never had korean style jajangmyun, only chinese style. =/
Never heard of an inside liner! But it makes sense as everything smudges on me.
The MAC eyeshadow palette is so pretty! I love purple shades! Your EOTD is fab! =D
I love this song as well!!
Inside liner looks good!! Please let me know if it transfers to the lower lash line because this look promising.
Your EOTD looks brilliant!!!
I am just like you with the liquid vs pencil liner thing.
Hey Yumeko!
I have never heard of an inside liner before! That’s interesting! I would be afraid to try it though! I’m still working on learning how to put on eyeliner! Haha! The food looks so good! My bestie is Korean and I love eating her mum’s spicy noodle soup. It is the best! Haha! I love that purple! I think that it would look very pretty as a smokey eye look! And last but not least, Big Bang is good! I’ll have to look at their lyrics in english, but I love the beat and the video. Plus, them being, you know, pretty, helps too! ^_^
Have a great day!
–Ciara<3<3
Very pretty eotd. I love purple eyeshadows.
oh and about the email. Not a problem. I am all about the sales and saving money, so I am glad to help. Especially that beauty is an expensive habit. hehehehe….
The spicy dish is called “Kampoong-gi” and yes, i agree it’s DELICIOUS!
oooh thank u for telling me!!!!
hahaha i’m definitely more a fan of big bang… so i will definitely respond to this post!! hahahai doooo love that song! for some reason though, i’ve noticed i tend to really like the japanese song releases of korean musicians sometimes more than their actual korean ones. i’m not sure if it’s just me… their japanese sounds korean… i know the languages can somewhat sound a like at times, but i feel like they’re speaking koreanized japanese… hahaha you tell me yumeko >P
btw, i totally did NOT even look at the MAC holiday collection… until i saw your EOTD!!!! AHH!!! those purples are gooorgeeeeeeeee <3
haha u are correct!!!! it sounds korean to me at times or that they dont understand what they are singing. cant explain it but i think u summed it up well XD its like a cross between you and me then? heeheee
u gotta go check out the mac holiday collection heehe wink wink
Yum!! I love Korean food!!
The insideliner looks interesting, don’t think I’ve seen anything like it!
I love your EOTD! Young Punk looks really good when paired with the other shades, great job yumeko! ;D
Speaking of korean food, I’m having korean bbq tmr – so excited!!
I still don’t really understand the insideliner, it is supposed to get under the lash line? Haha I am slow sometimes XP Hmm, I think I keep my mascaras longer than I should.
Your EOTD is so lovely and elegant, it’s great for the cool weather coming. ^^
I want to try more Korean food~! I know so little about it. I will go to Shin Okubo when I am in Tokyo this winter. ^^
Oh no~ My year is almost over and nothing amazing happened >< Hmm, I don't know anyone who is the tiger.
I love Big Bang's new song, I want it on my iPod hehe. Too bad real guys aren't that romantic (and cute) hehe^^
I really love the purple colors on U! great EOTD! also, I did watch Rain’s dancing to Mblaq and it was very very good! I am totally in love with Big bang latest songs and mtvs- they are so cool even without trying.
ahh, i love bento!
planning to make one! 
Love the EOTD! The inside liner looks so interesting but I can see your point about not wanting makeup THAT close… I rarely tight-line my eyes. Yummy for Korean food, too.
And year of the Tiger
I’m a tiger haha (and so is Kame) 
Inside liner sounds cool & interesting!
Purple looks good on you and those yummy korean food… Reminds me of my love for kimchi miso nabe…
=D
Loves the eye look!!! That’s some gorgeous colours!
By the way, I think it’s “champong” and “ja jang myon” (myon = ramen = noodles)
Okie! Have an awesome day! I like bento too!! hehehe…
http://blushfully.blogspot.com/
ahh I want to try that jiajiangmen
) ! Yess I agree…Rains dancing is awesome!
I’m always so scared for using these waterline liners because i’m scared that they will give me eye infections or something… But I do feel that once the waterline is lined, it looks super good, a lot better when it is not lined.
The food looks so good, I haven’t eaten anything all day today… and now I’m droolling, LOL! =D
oo,.. eotd looks great. i’m not a purple eye makeup girl but it looks cool.. i might try get that palette^^
i love the new bigbang song! the mv is really getting me into the winter feeling^^ xx
Pretty EOTD!
That brush looks really interesting. Is it basically for tightlining?
oooh i’ve always wanted to try inside eyeliner! whenever i use pencil, my tears? wash it right off. :/
mmmm jajamyung!<3 yummyyyy
mm very pretty eye makeup you did! Love it! ^.^
It’s gonna be the year of tiger? wohoo! I’m a tiger! Hope it will bring much luck! =)
it’s my first time to hear about that inside liner…..and I like your EOTD too…..
and I love BigBangs Japanese/English Album….my fave song is Make Love…..
I finally tried Jajiangmen a couple weeks ago after I’ve been DYING to try it after seeing in so many KOREAN DRAMAS.. and I didn’t even like it that much. Sooo disappointed. =(
Ah New year is coming up so quickly!! Can’t believe it is already November and soon December.
I’m getting into the bento mood too.. Korean bentos sound cool! You should try and show us next time~
LOL Big Bang’s japanese songs are so weird sometimes, it sounds like they’re singing in Korean when it is actually Japanese. I was listening to this in the car with my friend and we were all like – is this Japanese or Korean? Then after listening super carefully it was Japanese.. Haha! But their songs are so catchy and cool so I don’t care whatever language they’re speaking in.
Also the EOTD is so gorgeous, loving it! You make any makeup seem pretty and easy to wear.. If I had that makeup on my eyes.. lol i dont even know. I need to practice!
that spicy dish is kampoongi but it says Bul Kampoongi. Bul = FIRE haha
ive never seen bul kampoongi.. Kampoongi is usually like our version of sweet and sour pork
if you like spicy, you have to try bul duk (Fire Chicken)!! Eat that with the sweet daikon and it’ll be so yummy esp in winter!! it’ll warm you up!! You’ll like it~
its the year of the tiger next year?? omg im year of the tiger~~ the stickers and stamps are so cute!!
That is a gorgeous eotd, purple suits you so nicely! I wear liner on my water line sometimes, but i heard it isn’t good for your eyes…You know anything about that?
I have tried that liner a couple of years ago, I remember I was in a drugstore near Harajuku and they were showing the video on how to use it too. I was standing there for like half an hour looking at the video wondering whether to buy it or not XD but I did eventually buy it,, it was good to use but yeah the shelf life is not that great and turns lumpy after a few months… but the look of the liner does make the eyes look good. Now I just use normal pencil and liquid to do waterline I find it more easy and also cos the brush for that inside eyeliner is quite thick, I found it couldn’t get into like small corners and places where you need finer brush for so at the end I just filled it in with liquid eyeliner anyways.. oppsss sorry for this long winded post… Oh and I love your eyemake-up Bittenbefore is sugoi make-up guru
yah i wonder if i can wash the wand and use it for something else hahaha!
i am glad u like my makeup! thank u so much!
Wah inside liner? Now I never heard of that before but it looks so interestingggggggggg
Hehe btw love your EOTD, as usual XD
I been listening to that song 24/7, I think I like their Jap songs more
they’re easier to sing along hehe and of course I love JAPANESE language so that’s another reason =P
xxx
waaah big bang!! It’s very different from their usual style! But i like it! very soft
yumeko-chan, your eotd is really nice… love the purple~
ooh the inside liner looks good!!…
llooovvee the EOTD!!! i heart the purples~~ <3<3<3
time flies so fast~~…it seems that the year of ox has just begun only~~
yummy korean foooddd XD
haha yeah! at fitst i tot the BIGBANG were speaking in korean! but after that i saw the song title is in japanese! haha….but the song is verrryy NICE!!
i love wearing purples, from blue shades to the redder shades heeh
I always use my normal eyeliner to do the innerline XD I don’t really like doing my innerline because it tickles my eyes :p
Time flies doesn’t it -.-” I’m not big on celebrating new year. What are you going to do on new year??
Hmm..how does that liner work? Do you close your eye on it as it’s on you waterline and drag it across to line both upper and lower lines?? o.O
Lovely EOTD! I love purple eyeshadows! ^.^
And MMMM, food looks so yummy. I also want to try bentos! heehee
Lovely EOTD! I’m rather impressed with how Sorceress Eyes looks on you – so pretty! And hm… I’ve never heard of inside liner before lol, and I’m having a bit of a hard time trying to figure out what it’s for lol.
The Korean bento cookbook looks so cute! I really want to start making bentos but I barely even have time to eat breakfast as it is. =/
i NEVER heard of inside liner until now… XD
but i guess, i will stick to my mascara instead though…..
what mascara do u use?
majolica mascara ^.^
your EOTD looks amazing~~
how adorable is that little tiger?! seriously!
he’s so happy looking..hahaha..
big bang!
i just watched the MV…love it! love it!
so catchy and all the twinkling lights make me think of the holidays~
if you ever need help translating stuff from the bento book (or anything korean for that matter), i’ll gladly help ya~~
Inside liner?! That’s a first for me! LOL! But I love love love your EOTD!!
Yes more of that pls!
And yummy foodporn for me!
Ohh Bento book!! We have a local version one here, mostly to make cute animals & cute doll designs with your food. Prob be very elementary for a bento pro like you! 
I soo wish I understood Japanese, Chinese (any dialect), & Korean! Cuz I’d really like to understand what all these bands are saying! LOL!
interesting FIND~~inside eyeliner…
am in love with your purple EYESHADOWS from MAC! Your eyes are beautiful~
thanks yumeko for letting me know some shops in HK!
my last trip i only hang out at CausewayBay for beautypicks..this upcoming i will venture further~~
korean foodies…yummyummm salivating non-stop
Interesting brush.. I’ve never seen this before.
Your EOTD looks so pretty! <3 I love it!
Thanks for dropping by Yumeko!
I think its going to be tiny but at least you can try before you decide to buy next time 
You should try the Off with your heads sample
MAC EOTD completely wonderful – thanks Yumeko!! I am lusting after Young Punk but sold out when I finally got around to ordering it from MAC in Australia. *sigh*
I had a giggle at the food – I am Korean but grew up in Australia so whenever I see my cousins they call me the “foreigner” – one of the key reasons why is because I hate Jajiangmen!! I am not too keen on Korean rice cake either – it just tends to have this oily film on it which I despise!! I do however like most mochi – weirdness!!
I adore the concept of inner liner – but agree it does seem a bit wasteful if you have a lot of other stuff you can use!
Thanks for great post!!
ah really, i like jajiangmen XD my husband who is caucasian australian likes it too hahah i think we like the onions.
i like mochi a lot more for sure!
do u blog? <3
your blog is so cute~!
the korean food looks to die for *drool*
but I was wondering, is The Face Shop Oil free bb-cream any good?
I’m planning to get it but I haven’t read any reviews on it yet lol
take care! <3
thank you for visiting!
i think the bbcream is very good! i dont know what sort of review to write, any questions, just ask <3
Your eye is so prettttty, I’m loving purple shadows lately and this one totally rocks
That’s a neat eyeliner, but it seems like an extra step to line the inner line. it’s nice to know that there’s something out there to help make it easier though XD
food, eotd and music videos!! hahahaa i love this post xD
lovely EOTD! I haven’t paid much attention to the MAC releases after Style Black, but I’ve seen that sorceress palette a few times now and it looks oh-so-gorgeous with all those purples
love the EOTD! your eyebrows always look so impeccable!
