Makeup mania
Tuesday, September 07, 2010Hi everyone!
I've been so busy these days with sudden work trips and running errands - but if there is one thing i will never stop doing.. Its SHOPPING!
I absolutely love going to drugstores and buying small toiletries.
U cant imagine how much time i spend just looking at labels, scrutinising brands and opening lids, smelling shampoos.
So here's a small list of my newest buys and favourite items from ur very humble Watsons/Guardian etc.
Spring Heart eyebrown pencil in Light Brown
I like this becoz its not easy to find such a light coloured pencil. But this will only work if u trim ur eyebrows very shortly for the brown to show through.
(i might do an eyebrow tutorial soon!)
Kiss Me Heroine false eyelashes
U can get them at any Watsons, and they can be reused for sometime if u are extra careful.
I like 03 although i might buy 04 next time.
(As seen in pic.)
Heres a picture of the looks i like to recreate myself.
Dolly looking lashes with light brown eyebrows and pinky lip.
Cure Natural Aqua Gel
I keeo forgetting to introduce this although i recommended it to my BFFs before.
Its very special, with hardly any smell or colour but it works like a dream on removing dead skin!
U can use it on ur face and even ur body.
I apply it before i put on my masks.
My Beauty Diary Face Masks
This is my everyday mask becoz its cheap, easy to use and is extremely hydrating for its price.
A good and simple mask if u have dry skin and need a quick moisture fix.
I like the Grape ones becoz i have conbination skin.
Lucidol Hair Wax (Green tub)
I use this for my new shorter hairdo.
After i tong my hair, i use alittle of wax - rubbing into my palms and lightly teasing hair for a volumious look.
Sally Hansen Megashine topcoat
This is the only topcoat that i use, even OPI topcoat cant beat it.
I use this to prolong my nail colour and it dries so quickly that are no time for smudges even after applying a fresh coat of colour.
Ok thats all dearies!
I need to go grab dinner and then back to work soon!

Ah Huat Girl: omg i sooooo love ur name!!! Hahaha very funny wor!
I love Nars so much lor... Its really great! But my newest post is on a wider range of items.
Hope u like it too! ;)
Ok... With regards to ur skin - is it a pimple or acne?
If its a one off pimple, i would recommend Proactive skincare line from drugstores.
Its really effective but it may cause skin drying (due to benozyl peroxide) so use with care.
I used it inbetween my normal skincare and i find that my pimple dimished in size very quickly.
But i dun use it all the time.
But if u have acne, then i will ask u to see a doctor becoz only they can help u professionally.
Hths!

Need help for my hair: hello! I do the dove range (dark blue) for my shampoo n conditioner. Followed by a serum after towel drying the hair.

EYE: oh dear! How r u applying it? I use my fourth finger to tap the cream in gently. Use light tapping motions and do not rub it in, ya?
