My Makeup Routine

This is totally random subject in my blog post. And a random subject is actually very interesting and easy to share in a blog. Who's with me? 

So today I'm making a debut on the other subject -  MAKEUP. Simply because I love makeup.  Makeup to me is to enhance one's features and also as a booster of confidence especially for a working lady. My makeup routine is very simple and it involves the followings:

1. Make Up For Ever HD Foundation 
    - This is my first over the counter foundation. The 3rd foundation I ever have in my life.   I'm not wearing it everyday.  I use it for special occasion or whenever I feel like. It gives you light to medium coverage for that perfectly natural looking skin.


2.  MAC Studio Fix 
     - The best 2 way foundation of all time. Hands down.

     ZA 2-way Foundation
     - My substitute to MAC Studio Fix.  *Sayang lah nak guna MAC hari-hari.


3.  MAC Eyeliner (I can only find picture of Revlon eyeliner)
     - I like MAC Eyeliner because it runs smoothly, the colour is intense (i use black) and I have a shaky hands to ever use gel or liquid eyeliner. 


4. Lancome Oscillation Mascara
    - I swear by this product. I use it everyday. Pricey! But worth every penny. Enough said.


5. Lip Ice Sheer Colour
    - I don't wear lipstick. I've only been using this product since late 2010 but not on everyday basis. I have a fear of lipstick. I had never worn/own bright lipstick until I saw someone wearing it (in a blog) and finally bought myself a bright red Sephora lipstick. I think I'm lovin' it. 


6. Loreal Paris Blusher.
    - Nothing special about this blusher. I can wear any type of blusher. It is a must have item in my makeup bag. I have a very round face and blusher adds cheekbones to my face.


So what's in your makeup bag? Can you share it with me?

Clutch for Me!

I can spend many hours blog hopping at night, 

when my baby sleeps.

The time which i can actually use to do something productive

instead of going 'ooh' and 'aah' over others blog.

After several nights of blog hopping, 

i decided to make this clutch for myself.

Tutorial can be found HERE at Noodlehead.

It is a very easy to follow instruction and you can do this in 1-hour time.

I purchased the fabric at Bandung during my visit there in Nov '09.

There were plenty of fabrics called 'Katun Jepang' in Indonesia.

I managed to buy a lot of cotton because of the price .
I didn't bother to check the name of the fabric at that time 
as long as its cute to my eyes.

As i was cutting the fabric to make the clutch, 

i was shocked to see it was Alexander Henry Fabric 
"my secret garden"  collection.

Wow! This must be crazy. I want to go to Bandung now.

Note to dear hubby, if you read this, please allow me to fly to Bandung again!
