Yesterday was a day full of happiness and food. If not for the throbbing migraine I would have enjoyed my entire day.
Another of my cousins got engaged. Kak Shikin. She looked beautiful in her green n purple kebaya bought from Manja (u can find the store at Joo Chiat Complex). She was so excited she bought a whole new set of Clinique makeup. I muz say my cousin is a pro Clinique makeup fan. It is the only makeup tat doesn’t affect her super sensitive skin.
Kak Shikin wanted us to help her with her makeup. I was obviously ecstatic! Kak Shikin is very particular abt makeup and by letting us experiment our makeup techniques means she was threading in deep waters. Hehe. However… we still managed to pull it off well.
I did her eyes and cheeks, which includes my personal liquid eyeliner from Revlon (S$18.90), Kak Shikin’s Bobbi Brown mascara and Ummi Munah’s Clinique blusher. Kak Raudhah helped with her tudung and selendang while Nabihah mixed her eyeshadow in purple, gold and green.
I have never had a perfect line for my upper eyelid but amazingly, I did a wonderful job on my cousin. *blushes* I’ve yet to master the technique on my own eyes. I have small eyes u see, and thus the difficulty of applying liquid eyeliner. Whereas, I’m an expert at applying mascara. The secret is to wipe away excess mascara on tissue paper; by doing this, the mascara will not be too clumpy.
I am only an amateur when it comes to makeup as I’ve yet to master the many techniques. My makeup collection compared to others is very miserable. Still.. I am excited to share my experiences with others regarding my passion for looking good.
For that moment, Kak Shikin made us feel like we were professionals. To Kak Shikin n Abg Suffian congratulations on ur engagement.
