Too Cool For School


I bought some Hot Girl Lip Sticker from my favourite Korean make-up brand Too Cool For School, both in homage to the above video and because I couldn't resist the packaging.  


The blurred writing on the box is what mostly sold me the lipstick.  It could be a mantra for living:

Sometimes life can be boring, but you cannot!
You are not boring
You are too cool for school.

The packaging above is one of the more simplistic designs of the brand.  The most visually alluring products are decorated with illustrations by artist Anke Weckmann.


My make-up routine generally amounts to a smidgen of Touche Eclat and a swipe of mascara, but I'm tempted to go shopping and fill a basket full of these eye-catching products, just to have them sitting prettily in my apartment.  I suppose I could at least replace my blacker-than-black mascara for one in a softer brown from the collection. I've been complimented on my 'long eyelash-hairs' four times in the week so am starting to feel like I don't really need it as much as I thought!

  1. I am in love with anything Korean or Japanese at the moment!

    I will most definitely have to check out this site, the packaging is absolutely adorable!

    What a coincidence! I just saw your post below as I was reading this post. It was my first purchase from STYLENANDA and all I can say is it's perfect! The fabric (polyester) is divine, drapey and soft, just the perfect amount of each. I cannot wait to get paid again just to splurge! Go for it girl, shop away xxxxx
