Finally, NYX in Taman Anggrek!

About two days ago, I was wandering around in Matahari Department Store in Taman Anggrek and I saw this NYX logo and an empty counter. I was really really excited knowing that NYX was about to open in Taman Anggrek (the closest shopping mall from my apartment)!!

So today, I came back to Matahari, only to see if the counter's open yet. And it is!!! Ooh.. just when I needed a new (and affordable, of course) pink blush and lipstick!!! And even cooler, when I got there, all of testers are still new and smooth. The Beauty Assistant had to convince me over and over, "Yes, these are testers. It's okay, you can touch them." Hahaha...

And this is my small haul:

• NYX Chrome Eyeshadow in 33 Lagoon
• NYX Blush in PB05 Pinky
• NYX Goddess of The Night (Lipgloss with Mega Shine) in 113 French Kiss

And I got this NYX Eye/Eyebrow Pencil in 921 Baby Blue for free!

My First MAC

After doing a lot of thinking, well, for weeks, I went to the mall last Sunday and bought my first MAC products. Ooh.. I'm so happy, I almost cry!

I was aiming for the foundation, compact powder and the 187 brush. I went to the counter and, thankfully, this lovely Make Up Artist was a really big help. I told her that I'm a rookie and I'm looking for Studio Fix. And she really took her time and showed me all the possible shades for me. I said, I was here before and tried the NC40 and NC 42, and I thought NC40 was the right shades for me. She asked me to sit in front of this huge mirror in the counter and brought NC40 and NC37. Then, she applied the NC40 on my chin. I could really see the yellow shade on my chin.. haha.. and she said that it looked so unnatural. So she removed it and applied the NC37 with the NC40 compact powder. She even offered me to try the NW35 with the NC40 compact powder to compare and she applied it along my jawline. Got confused, I told her I can't really make a decision right at that time because, although these two look natural on my skin, they might give different result under different lighting. So.. once again the MUA being so nice, she told me to go and walk around the mall and come back after I can really decide which shade is the right one for me. So I took a while wandering around the mall and came back after decided to take the NC37.

After finally made a decision about the foundation and the compact, I was still thinking about buying the 187 brush. Boy, that is one pricey brush! Once again, the MUA helped me by showing a collection of limited edition brushes. With this limited edition brushes, I got the 187 and 190, for foundation (and blush and bronzer..), the 194 for applying concealer and the 168 for contouring in one package. She honestly said that these brushes aren't the first quality, more like one level under the actual brushes. But it's still under MAC and it's enough if I'm just gonna use them for individual needs. I thought it was a pretty good deal, so I bought it!

Christian Dior - Fall / Winter 2008 Runway Look

Close enough? Haha..

I know, this is a last year look. I saw the pictures in my friend's magazine, like, months ago. Since I'm not really into designers and runway walk and stuff, I didn't really notice about the designer but the makeup really caught my eyes. Those models looked as if they have such big eyes. And with big hair, they really looked like a doll.

So I was browsing the internet and I found pictures of the models from Christian Dior's show for Fashion Week. So I thought I'd give it a try. I don't have a white eyeshadow that really thick and pigmented. Besides, on my medium skin tone, even the brightest color will look warmer. That's why I used white eyeliner, that'll give thicker coverage, rather than white eyeshadow.

Too bad I could only do this look on one eye, because I only have one set of fake eyelash. I used that as my upper and lower eyelash..

Some tips:

1. Use thicker eyelashes to really imitates the look.. I don't have any, so I just use what I got
   
2. Apply the lower eyelash under your real eyelash.. By the way, this is a very good idea if you wanna make you eyes look bigger
3. This isn't a daily look.. Don't use this unless you're gonna walk on a runway, or you're going to a Halloween party or.. you're doing a tutorial.. haha..
