Bunny's suggestion: Lady Gaga; My Poodle hair

As usual, every once a while when common sense leaves me for a holiday, I do the stupidest things. This time, I permed my hair. I have permed my hair a couple of years ago and hated it, so what on earth made me think I'll like it this time? I have absolutely no idea.

Maybe I imagine that the hair will turn out looking something out of the latest Popteen magazine, instead it somewhat came off the dog grooming brochure. All said and done, I'll have to live with it till it straightens again. In about 3 months or so if I'm lucky.


Ohh how I cried...
Btw, I forgot to gel this, it's usually curlier

I guarantee you that my next hair style will be short, straight and black.

I needed ideas and suggestions for an EOTD and you gave them, Thank you Lisa, Bunny and Rola (just click on their names for the link) for the great ideas! Instead of picking one, I decided to try out all three as they were all interesting. Something I would not have picked or thought of myself.

So coming up soon will be:
  • A Leah Dizon look
  • A bridal look of Bella from Twilight Breaking Dawn
"Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.... How about the lady gaga look? That will be really really interesting!! the one with the eyeliner under neaththe eye oneeee~!!! lol am i making sense??" ♥Bunny♥


Picture from good old Google

Bunny, I hope I picked the right picture cause I ended up google-ing Lady Gaga eyeliner under eyes and got this. LMAO



Lazy Ash hardly takes off her leftover make up for an EOTD. Left over of the day from office. Sir Terrible Memory was hogging my laptop so I wasn't able to take a good long look at Lady Gaga. Yeshu, I blame you, Sir TM!



Dug thru my make up box and whipped out a long forgotten liquid eyeliner from Elianto that was due to go for a long vacation via dustbin. Bottom liner took me nearly 7 tries before I was somewhat satisfied. One good or is it bad thing about the liquid eyeliner that I could easily rub it off with a wet wipe and do it all over again when I did a mistake.



Once I started looking like a slightly more prettier version of Ronald McDonald, I covered my eyebrows with concealer and add my foundation. I did a mistake of grabbing my 'usually saved for ghostly pale' foundation and slapped it on. I came off looking a little too pale for this look.




Add false eyelashes and draw a mole the size of Texas. It never meant to be Texas, my hand slipped *excuses excuses* and add on red lippies. Added Bourjois chocolate bronzer on cheeks, highlighted, clean up messy eyeliner and call it a day.



To be truthful, I wanted to add some gold and silver sparkling eyeliner for the lines. No way on earth am I gonna stick those rhinestones on one by one. It'll take me all year!

Lo and behold, my gold eyeliner has long caked up, clumped up and died. It went to the places where all eye liners go when they die - Dustbin.

Thus it put an end to my attempts.

So Bunny, here you go, a subtle Lady Gaga + Ronald McD look that you wanted but didn't turn out the way you envisioned.

NOLW; Plaids + Minnie Mouse inspired, Bourjois delice de Poudre

I've been sleeping my days away. The weather is so freaking hot. Some parts of the world might be flooding but Penang has turned into a toaster oven. It cooks you slowly, not allowing us a swift death.

It's too hot to go out, it's too hot to sleep yet it's too hot to do anything except wriggle in your sweat soaked bed dreaming of McDonald's chocolate sundae.

NOLW- Nail of Last Week



Saw the design on Youtube and had a grand idea to do plaids on my nails. Too grand. It failed. Partly because my super thin long thin nail brush has curled into a "C" and I couldn't make thin lines with it anymore.

10 minutes later, everything was washed off and on to the next big idea.

Minnie Mouse inspired nails



To be truthful, I've always been a fan of Donald/ Daisy Duck more than Mickey and Minnie but I love the idea. The dots I made were a little too small, I think it would have looked better with bigger dots. Oh well.



Graduated from strange looking waffles to strange looking macaroons. Yay! I'm been thinking of sending some to friends but I wonder if they'll be insulted with something this badly made?


The missing macaroon finally rejoins the group

JH's younger brother has returned from the UK for a short break. I must admit that I frequently trouble him by asking to buy me this and that. There has not been a trip that he has returned without a list of what I want. He never complained, what a nice guy.

This time it was for the Bourjois Delice de Poudre bronzing powder in 51. Saw this a while ago but couldn't figure out where to get it. It is only available everywhere except Malaysia. As usual. And even if it reached Malaysia, it would probably cost a bomb no thanks to the tax. As usual.



51 is the lightest shade they had. JH asked me what it was for and I explained with a flurry of hand actions that it was a bronzing powder and is used for contouring the face and making it look slimmer.



Truth be told, I.do.not.know.how.to.use.it.

There will be no How to contour face tutorial because I have absolutely no idea how to pull it off. Sure I know where the bronzer goes and all but everything I do makes me look dirty. Well, the bronzer is a good 16.5g so there will be a lot of attempts in the near future.

Yana's sister has a review on this; Read it here



Got the Maquillage Design Face Colours (refill) in #20 for cheap. I have no idea what the heck this was for since I can't read a word of the instruction (It was in Japanese and JH is not around) but I ended up mixing all the colour together and using it as blusher. AHA! Surprisingly it turned out quite pretty, It has a very subtle natural blush colour that makes my cheeks looks healthy and smooth. OoOoooo.. me likey!

If anyone could even tell me how to use this, I will be grateful >.<



Bought the Bobbi Brown Basic Eye Palette for mom. I know she loves browns and I thought she would love this. Unfortunately mom is more of the reddish brown kinda person. Excuse me while I go bang my head on the wall.

I have had my Shimmering Nudes palette for a while now and the colours are too similar to the Basic Palette for me to keep.

It cost me a pretty penny too. *sniff*
