Birthday Confessions & Haul


Today's NOT my birthday. It came & went a week ago, but I couldn't find the time to get this post up then. Now I'm doing the usual should I/shouldn't I post thing.....and then I post it.

Let's start with the good stuff... 

....and you will see I went a lil' crazy with the liquid lipsticks....


Starting from the top, clockwise:

Benefit They're Real Mascara Mini ~ Oh my God! I'm doomed, because I will need the full-sized tube. This mini version is around  Rs.800 & the full sized tube is Rs.2400 or so. It is fantastic - long, fluttery & separated lashes like no other mascara I've tried before. (From Sephora)

MAC Retro Matte Liquid Lipcolour in Personal Statement (Shocking Pink), Rich & Restless (Mid tone pinky salmon) & Lady Be Good (Warm Mid-tone Nude) ~ Out of stock. Always out of stock. It's a miracle few shades were restocked on my birthday! 

Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick in Bellisissima (Pale Neutral Pink), Patina (Dusty Rose) & Fiore (Hot Pink) ~ LOVE these! (From Sephora)

Chambor Extreme Wear Transfer Proof Liquid Lipstick in 461 (Coral) & 431 (Red) ~ I like the first one I got #403, so I couldn't resist getting a coral & a red. I think I'm done now ;p

MAC Face & Body Foundation in C2 ~ It's time to try out a MAC Foundation for realz. Another product that was OOS for months! I mean my shade C2.

Givenchy Prisme Libre Mat-Finish & Enhanced Radiance Loose Powder 4 in 1 Harmony ~ My favorite & the most pricey (Rs.4000). This has been on my wishlist since last year. There are 4 powders in this - beige, yellow, peach, bronze. (From Sephora)


And now....

Confessions of a 35 year old woman:


| CHANGE. That's the key word from now on. |


| Chloé or Jimmy Choo sunglasses? |

| I don't know if I like pockchoi. It always looks good, especially uncut under some juicy mushrooms. But how do I eat it?  Should I just take the whole thing that looks like a leafy octopus & bite it like a lettuce? I ordered it a restaurant recently & I couldn't cut it with the knife either. |


| People are selfish. Never ever forget that. |


| What are my favorite flowers? Like, seriously. Peachy pink roses lock karle/karlo? |


| Some kids these days proclaim: 
"My Mom is God!" 
Will my son be one of them? 
Hahahaha.... |



| My head's so messed up right now, I want to cover myself with beach sand & maybe a few of you can come pour tequila shots into my mouth. |



| Yes, I try to close the elevator door before someone else gets in. |


| I swear like a sailor & hit like a man. But my heart is all child. |


| "I'm not the prettiest you've ever seen
But I have my moments, I have my moments
Not the flawless one, I've never been
But I have my moments, I have my moments
I can get a little drunk, I get into all the don'ts
But on good days I am charming as f***..." ~ this song. |


| Current Obsession ~ HANDBAGS. I want to go out and buy 20 in one go. But I only bought 2 today.|


| You wake an angel every time you wet your pillow. ~ CZ. |


Birthday Manicure: Nail Polish ~ Colorbar. The shade name/number had rubbed off the bottle at the beauty salon, so I don't really know!
Rings ~ H & M


What I'm wearing:

Dress: Forever 21. |  Belt: New Look


Location: Hilton Garden Inn Hotel
DLF Place, Saket District Centre, New Delhi.

Best hotel to stay in Delhi if you want to be close to shopping malls & food joints. It's very clean & I also enjoyed the Breakfast Buffet that has everything you'd ever want! Loved it!

  13. Belated Happy Birthday Cynthia. I have been reading your blog for almost six years now and I am still one of your fans.

    I know what your son'd going to say when he grows up. " My mum is a diva."

    I close the elevator too and honestly, try avoiding human contact as much as possible.

I ♥ finding little notes in my Vanity Case, so do drop one. I read all of them & I try my best to reply to each & every one of them [check back in 2-3 days =D] but most times it's physically impossible! Either way, I love to hear from you & really appreciate you taking the time out to share your thoughts <3

Thank you for reading! :)
