Earlier, Sophie and I were having a chat on makeup. She was advocating the importance of effective and efficient coverage, benefits of mineral makeup, tips on how to use minerals, picking the right sort of foundation when I blurted out that I’m addicted to gel liners, particularly my MAC Fluidline. She agrees that it’s one […]
Here’s a glimpse of my recent look last Tuesday night when I went to a Christmas party. It’s not much but I’m hoping to more bold at every opportunity. Baby steps, please.

Claire Foundation, Monave

Brush-On Beads
The Body Shop
Shimmering, colored powder beads with light diffusing particles and pearl pigments to brighten and add color to the face, cheeks, and decolletage.
I’ve been eyeing a pot of the Brush-On Beads over at The Body Shop for quite sometime now. Finally, I’ve bought one and tried the product out and I’ve got a […]

Remember the first tip — Cleanse, tone and moisturise!
Concealer application tip: Use the ring finger and apply the concealer lightly […]
It’s not much really. I just knew that I needed to buy a new tube of concealer and the other two were somewhat of a necessity, too. Er, well, not the beads, though.
