To defy all fashion rules, I decide to rock out a yellow gold look. Where am I going to? No where. Probably to the mall and back. =P

As usual, do not mind my brows.. I probably get them done next week when I head down to Sydney! FINALLY! CIVILISATION! I know I do look a little wane.. It’s from the bad tummy. It’s better but not 100% well yet.

Just a short update.. I need to go wake up my sleeping princess now. It’s pass her lunch time. And to be extremely OOT.. Here’s something utterly random.. Our big bunch of celery!

In attempt to catch up with blogging and request, I created some easy "maps" for lost sheeps! (To be honest, I did this out of boredom! Heez!) Anyways, here goes..

To look for my holiday FoTDs.. I consolidate them with a tag. You just simply need to click on the link here!

To see my upcoming updates, wishlist and new hauls, its slightly further down.. All you need is to scroll down the page and voila! You will see it there.

I decided to do an utterly random post while waiting for the laundry to be done.. I shall showcase my teeny makeup corner in Hubs' apartment here at Adelaide.

Here you’ll see two plastic containers which I’ve gotten from the Reject Shop at $2 (score!). They contain my brushes (top) and my eyeshadows (below; can’t be seen). While a tray contains misc stuff and my makeshift swirly bowl.
 

I didn’t want to spend more money buying stuff to organise my makeup.. So I cut up the Jurlique travel set boxes into two and sorted out my stuff.. On the left contains my blushes, powders, palettes and foundation. While on the right contains all my lip stuff.

My mum was the one who came up with the idea to use the egg carton to house some of my makeup.. I decided to use it to house the odds and ends like the jars, concealer, gel liner, fur’s balm etc.

My skincare! Those on the left that are unopened are brand new (today’s haul!) while those on the right were brought over from Singapore and those in the centre are my Jurlique samples. Hehehe..

I decided to jazz up my look a little today as I was wearing an all black outfit. However, it didn't turn out the way I would like it to be but I wasn't bothered to re-do it.

p.s. I'm using CS lip smacks in Sheer Crimson here!

My face is still breaking out a little.. But its less bumpy now with a good skincare routine. I’m still waiting for my sunblock to arrive.. I really do need a sunblock.. *Sigh* And also, I really need to cut down on the amount of Sze Chuan food I’ve been eating.. LOL!~ It has crazy amounts of chili and chili oil in it. Eeps~

We went to Adelaide Hills and Hahndorf (a small German town in SA) today to celebrate Mother’s day. It was a pretty good Mother’s day.. Well, I shall end this post with a photo of me and my girl.. I’m not too bothered now to blog about my hauls. *Looks apologetic*

I'm slightly behind my blogging here at Vox. I've posted a lot of posts on my blogspot.. If you're interested, you could hop over there to catch up on my daily rambles. =D

I would really like to wish all the Mummies here in Vox.. HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY! As a Mummy, I know how hard it is to be a good mother.. All the highs and lows in parenting. It's not an easy job but a very satisfying one.. Especially when your babies tell you they love you!

My Sissie has finally "popped"! She gave birth to a healthy 2.8kg baby girl yesterday. We hope that our two babies would be good friends and that they would grow up together like sisters

So in celebration of the arrival of my goddaughter, I’ll show you more of my hauls and a FoTD! KAKAKAKA~ There’s honestly nothing much to do in Adelaide. My mum and I have been shopping like crazy and cooking up a storm. =P

First up.. THE MAC Haul!
  
In the photo, select sheer pressed powder, studio sculpt concealer and foundation in NC20. Slimshine in Long Stem Rose, lustre lipsticks in Plink! and Way to Love, see thru lip colour in Loving Touch and lipglass in Virgin Kiss. Beauty powder in Blush of Youth and sheertone shimmer blush in Trace Gold

Sadly MMU isn't working well at all for me. I developed some sort of allergy with my EDM PP foundation. No joke! And my skin looked really dull. So my mum and I hopped over to the MAC counter and checked out the new studio sculpt foundation. We both definitely like the next to nothing texture but with medium coverage!

Remember in my previous post, I hauled the Invisible Zinc sunblock but it was in the wrong shade? So I went back to get it exchanged for two ecotools powder brushes (which I gave one to my mum)! And while out grocery shopping, I spotted this smaller tube of the sunblock. Good way to sample it! Anyone wants a CP? XD 

Last but not least, my FOTD.. I’m experiencing a lot of redness now due to the AHA cream cleanser I’m using. I might go out later and hunt for another makeup remover. Eeps..~

Woo Hoo! Inan won!!

Sorry for not announcing this sooner but I've been spending time with the Hubs. He brought me out for a bit.. and allowed me to do a mini haul.. LOL! I'll be posting up my haul and more DM swatches soon!

My mum’s best friend and one of her daughters came down for a visit during the weekend. They were here to help the eldest daughter to buy some makeup for her wedding in May. 

So off we went to play at the MAC counter, we spent close to $400 there. LOL! One of my biggest spendings there. My friend wanted a plum theme for her face. I chose some purple shades, a brown and dark blue. The MAC MUA asked if I was a MUA. LOL I wish! I told her that I help friends and family only.

I told her (the bride) I would be there to help her for her wedding dinner end of the year in Malaysia. I helped picked out a blush and lippie for the other sister and some eyeshadows for Mum's best friend.

I also gave away two SN lippies to Mum’s best friend. She has really sensitive skin so I introduced her to mineral foundation. She was so happy with the effects of the foundation that she sent a thank you e-mail.

So that’s enough of my ramblings.. I’m awfully sick so I’m going to go rest for now.

I was checking my mail and there was an e-mail from Hubs. And in it.. it was this photo! Woo hoo! Something to occupy my time while I'm there.

After much contemplation, I decided to give the MAC Hello Kitty collection a miss. As much as I love Hello Kitty, but BLACK kitty really isn’t my thing.

I love Hello Kitty for all the girlish and sweetness she represent. BFF thinks that the black kitty looks evil! (Side note: Each time, I think of the word Evil and I think of this particular song from Phineas and Ferb!)

I really would like to own the two blushes.. but being a STUDENT, I can barely afford to save money and get Hubs a present AND buy makeup. So, skipped it is! So what’s your plans for the weekend? I’m planning to get my essay done and mop around a little. LOL!

On a happier note, my mum managed to locate my favourite Nasi Lemak seller. Chili! Here I come!
