my makeup table 2.0

ok, this is not for bragging.  well, like 20% bragging rights only.

girls like to post their makeup collection not because they want to brag, but because these collections makes us happy.  like a person collecting either stamps or rocks or whatever, of course they feel glad when they get to share it with others.

so don't hate me coz im not here to shout what i have, it is not even a lot.  i am just ecstatic when i see these pretty little things and sometimes i just sit on my table looking at them and trying them out again one by one ^_^

time has passed when i can fit all of my makeup in one box:

this is my makeup table now :) (see before)

bambi installed these lights for me, isn't it awesome?  and i got the mobile mirror and shelf from centrepoint when they had a sale ^_^ ...the stickers (monokuro boo) are from a local thrift store and they jazz up my simple white wood, don't they?

basically i had the shelf installed and on the top part i have our perfumes, mostly for me.  and a pink lotion bottle from daiso.

then the middle part has the hair products like hairgel, hairspray, heat protectant, split ends serum, curling mousse, and my contact lens solution and lotions from belo and m&s.  my two contact lens case (pink and blue) that now keeps my used false lashes and eylure lash glue and remover are also here.

individuals and strip lashes that i cut in the middle

then in the bottom shelf i have the eye brushes, and mostly face products, which i will show one by one...

we have smashbox primer, olay complete radiance moisturizer, clarins complexion perfector, olay total white cream (i found in a thai store), sephora eye makeup remover (waterproof), bodyshop vanilla and spice lip balm, jars with gosh primer and nivea face mask, olay white radiance day cream (with spf) and olay natural white night cream.  and also benefit high beam.

next line we have olay skin comfort cleansing milk, gosh face primer, sephora face primer and base, b.e. rev-er upper, facial mist bottle (empty), and benefit confessions of a concealaholic box.

on the side of the table i have at the back the clear plastic folder for eyeshadows (from daiso), and my manly eyeshadow palette (barely seen here), the plastic tray for lipsticks, pink drawer for small stuff like false eyelashes, spare contact lenses and hair clips,  and a jar for face brushes.

then on the base of the lighting we have:

the plastic tray for face stuff: benefit some kinda gorgeous foundation faker, mikajy blush and highlighter, some free coupons, bare escentuals 9gram jar of mineral veil, loreal blush in nude, nyx blush in spice, benefit coralista blush, bare escentuals 2gram jar of mineral foundation in medium/medium beige mix (in a mineral veil jar), b.e. radiance, and body shop kabuki brush.

the pink brush tray at the back keeps these items: ( for my own eye candy i will show them one by one)

2 body shop mascaras, maybelline xxl curl power mascara, bourjois extra curl mascara, nyx doll eye macara in long lash, sephora eye primer, 4 eyebrow pencils (the short ones), 6 urban decay 24-7 eyeliners (colorful ones), nyx white pearl eyeliner, prestige eyebrow pencil with spoolie, gosh velvet eye pencil and avon glimmersticks in black.

then we have the body shop vitamin e eye cream, too faced shadow insurance, urban decay eyeshadow primer potion, the body shop tea tree oil coverstick, benefit dr feelgood lip scrub and lip balm, the body shop glitter liner in silver, sephora glitter liner in green and benefit cheek tint sample sized benetint.

my d-i-y cabinet for rings and earrings, 

i did it myself, yep. yep.

and on the forefront the stila illuminating face powder in rose gold, smashbox fusion eye and cheek palette in shockwave, smashbox cream liner, pop beauty backstage buzz LONDON in midnight soot, and urban decay preen eyeshadow palette.

i will probably make a quick review of them sometime soon...  

that's it. i hope my sister won't take half of them when i go home next month.  problem is, i can't fit them in one hello kitty bag anymore :P

year 2009, when simplicity was beauty.

waking up from a deep slumber

since i went for vacation last december 2009, i always said that i was like a zombie, just cruising my daily life without gusto, but now that my second baby, yvaine, is here, i am like a super duper awake mother.  she cries like she's been spanked! all the time!

bambi spoils her... she'll be a super duper daddy's girl.

so that's my excuse for not blogging for a very loooong time.


and my inspiration for making my (probably) last post in 2010 is my makeup table!

my space and his space ^_^

bambi made me one, finally!!! i was so happy and most of yvaine's sleeping hours i just sit there and stare at the sparkly, glossy, and super awesome makeup collection that i have.  i don't have a lot.  but i used to place them before in the corner shelf that we have:

but now i feel like a girl coz i finally have a place to have them like a proper kikay girl would have:

and i use everything here!  i don't buy anything i don't use, and most of these items have been replenished a lot of times because i stick to a product once i deemed it 'tested and proven' ^_^

that little binder book at the top holds my eye stuff, look:

what a great find from daiso!

and that's the brush holder i made before!

i also received a lot of cosmetics the past few days that i was so happy to add, but that will be on another post.

and i also created an album in facebook where i posted all of my nail art, but i didn't publish it.  maybe i will once i make my christmas nail art, which i got from askmewhats.blogspot.com

and since it is 4 days before christmas, i'll share our little christmas tree which i love especially when it's dark!

it looks electrified ^_^
