Tweezerman Slant Tweezer & 10x Mirror With Case

I don’t know, but do you bring your tweezers with you when you travel, go to the beach, or just spend the weekend elsewhere? Because I do ! I think I am most fickle when it comes to my eyebrows and I get rid of stray hair the moment they become pluck-able.Haha!
With the variety of […]

Here’s a video from Youtube on how you can fully utilize your MAC 136 brush, and try to sculpt your face by contouring ( making some features recede ) and highlighting ( […]

My Latest Lemming : Smashbox Cream Eye Liner Brush # 9

  Now that I’m in makeup school, I’ve been starting from the basics first before I go wild with makeup. With “The Prime Look” workshop, I was able to use pencil eyeliners to line the inner rims of the eyes as well as the lashlines. Oh gosh, just imagine, if the pencil was sharpened to pointed perfection. […]

Back Into Using Clarisonic Face Brush

I remember receiving a comment on my Clarisonic Face Brush post, wondering why I didn’t post a follow-up on how it fared on me, if it wasn’t effective. Actually, I’m about to tell you the truth - being in a non-US country, using gadgets that originate from the US with no universal plug is no […]

My Darling Becca Cheeks Blush #40!

Twas a very tiring and frustrating Saturday for me as I finished my makeup class asking myself why I couldn’t bring myself to fix my sister’s eyebrows properly ( Well, call me being too harsh on myself, but I need to practice harder! ). After school, we hurried to Adora in Greenbelt 5 to check […]

Sephora Professionel Stippling Brush

  
WOW. Another stippling brush! It’s only yesterday when I saw only MAC having this, and other brands started following to have their own version of the very unique and “talented” stippling brush.
Why talented? Because it screams airbrush finish. It’s incredibly multi-purpose as well. If you’ve got good skin, you just use this together with your […]

Beauty Gizmo 101 : Heating the Eyelash Curler

I must say that my lashes are horribly poker straight. Give it three seconds, and my well-curled lashes are all straight again. My friend even wondered why I don’t curl my lashes and apply mascara but in fact, I have painstakingly spent an hour to fix myself up - curling the lashes, and applying mascara […]
