woo hoo.. a previous fellow voxer (Whiterz) is having her first giveaway.. let's support her here

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..

When I said I was a hoarder (on facebook).. Everyone asked what did I buy! LOL~ Tsk tsk.. Am I that bad? The most "interesting" thing I bought recently was a kitchen blender and a pair of shoes! Now.. How exciting can that be?

I've got a few MAC items I would love to get.. but I'm feeling kinda broke at the moment so I guess that has to be held off. BUT to fulfill my urge of wanting to haul.. I allowed myself to get something I *need*. So off I went to PM Fur on her balms.. I've been putting off that buy for quite sometime.. until the appearance of the lotion sticks! Boy, am I glad I waited!

The only other place I've ever seen such a twist up stick thingy was from The Body Shop. They were pricey and they do not last well! My skin gets really dry and wonky in another climate. I hate it when I'm left w/o a good body moisturiser and have to resort to using a face cream on my body. So I've got high hopes for the lotion stick!

I'm leaving for Australia in another two weeks.. I've not packed! I've got no idea what to bring in terms of makeup.. Urgh urgh urgh! Ideas anyone?

Sticking with the red theme.. I shall show off my new iPod shuffle. I think we voxers love our shuffles – i.e. Jen has a green and Michelle has a silver! 

Being the crazy Shakespeare fan, I had mine engrave with one of my favourite quotes. My own personal joke as I’ve read Hamlet (in Malay) and it came out really funny. Yes… I’m weird.

That’s it! Crazy red? Yes, I love red. I used to have a red car, mobile, camera, bookcase…… Now I’m slightly open to more options but only to pinks and purples! HAHAHA!
