The title looks like some trance song, no?
But it just about Pinkness today. It felt really good indulging in pink again - after I outgrew it a little bit for a while, because of mint green!
Speaking of pink, I have a story for you. A true story. I know this man.
Hey, Everyone! Hope you're having a good week so far. It looks like July is going to be a haul month. SALES are starting very soon everywhere, so keep your monies safe for now. No clothes and accessories till you see that 50% OFF poster. I've made the mistake of buying clothes that were put up on sale only 5 days later before. Not a good feeling! That's why when I was at a mall last week, I stayed away from all my favorite fashion destinations. I just went to beauty stores - where nothing ever goes on sale!
My last stop was Sephora, specially to get one brush that I'd seen last time I was at the store.......
Bling, Bling, BLING! You asked for some glitter, and Maybelline India listened. They have introduced 8 sparkly friends to the Color Show gang. Makes me think - Waldorfs & van der Woodsens..... Humphreys.
I will be showing you 2 shades from the range today:
Me: "I want strawberries."A couple weeks ago:
Hi, Everyone! Just a quick update on the furnishings & decor of new home. I finally got curtains for my dressing room last week, and I am quite happy with them.
My first plan was to get floral curtains, and was kinda liking the ones below.....3rd white/grey......
This one has beat all of my previous drugstore foundations - Revlon Colorstay Foundation, Bourjois 1,2,3 Perfect Foundation, Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation, Maybelline Dream Liquid Mousse Foundation, etc.
When I was doing my makeup course, I had many L'Oreal True Match Foundations. Some I'd bought myself, some I got in my kit (A starter kit that's included in the fee.) I think I had, like, 5 bottles. Obviously I got bored of it after using it so much - on myself, on models-of-the-day.....
Back then, I had really prominent melasma/hyperpigmentation on my cheeks & nose. I remember that when this foundation was applied & layered, they almost looked invisible.
I decided to repurchase it recently, many many years later, since my skin was d(r)ying for a new base. I was starting to hate foundations and most bases, because they emphasized the dry patches on my unpredictable pregnancy skin. But now.......
I don't know when Eyelid Tapes came into existence, but I have heard about the tape concept quite a long time ago. When I was staying in a hostel, I had a roommate from Manipur. She told us that they used sellotape (cut into shape, of course) on her nephew's (or niece's) monolids regularly, and it really helped to create a crease line and open up his/her eyes.
Now my eyelids are not sooo hooded that I'd want to use tapes regularly, but I've always wanted to try them. I actually bought these for some looks, and ended up using them twice just to see what the deal is.

A recent find that I'm absolutely in love (lob!) with is this organizer. Don't mistake it for those acrylic 'Made In China' ones. This one says it is Made in Taiwan. The quality is top-notch! Super clear, shiny & thick, much much better than the 24 Lipstick Holder I got from Ebay (Remember that? Posted here). I was over the moon when I found it in a shop, that too amongst many other designs/types!
I have not thought about what I want to keep in it, so I just arranged random things for now just to show you how they look.
Hi, Hi! How are you all doing? Me, I've been away from home since Monday, so things are moving slowly over here. Will be heading back tomorrow, and I'll be back to full blogging mode again.
So I just realized that my last Jewelry Haul post was in September last year! What? Didn't I buy any bling since then? And you didn't tell me?! Now the beast is out, and it's just waiting for Accessorize SALE!
Sometime in May, I got these bell earrings, and I'm obsessed with them! I wanted to buy so many more, like, a dozen! I would have if I was shopping alone ;p
