My Very Few MAC Products

As someone who loves make up although putting them on nicely is another story, I barely have any MAC products. MAC products are famous for their cosmetics and every make up artist or enthusiast will have their products in their collections and even other cheaper drugstore products tend to copy their original ideas and make them affordable, which people like me, would usually stock up on.

I've yet to actually buy one over the counter, except for that one single occasion many years ago, for my mum when she wanted their compact powder. I didn't really like their cosmetics products. Every now and then they will release limited collections where die hard MAC fans will know by hard and also know which products come from which collections.

I can't tell the difference.

Oh, so here are my very few MAC product collections. I am aiming to buy their dimensional powder as a highlighter because I heard rave reviews about how great they are. I do want to get a highlighting powder for that bit of shimmer on the top of cheekbones. Very nice...

Actually I planned to take more pictures but my camera battery died on me. However, I want to highlight the blush which I really like. They're not too heavy on the cheeks and give a nice natural flush in a neutral soft brown tone.



The MAC products I own are:

Rubenesque Paint Pot
Lipstick Yash Matt A90
Lipstick Frost Colour Me Coral
Powder Blush Prim & Proper Satin


Pretty Cover
As mentioned, the only products I like from all of them is the blush. Perhaps next time instead of relying on buying them second hand (yes, they weren't bought by me initially) I should drop by their counter and choose the colour that suits me. I am looking forward to the one at the Galleria in Orchard Road because I heard they are duty-free there. Save a bit of moolah.

I am not sure if I want to expand my make up collections anymore but I may want to get the Urban Decay NAKED palette or the LORAC  pro palette. But I don't wear make up on a regular basis and my work doesn't require me to be so dressed up with full make up and the only occasions I get to 'play' with them is when I go out, which is hardly too.

However those products mentioned seem to be like the top of the crops and I ain't a true blue make up enthusiast if I don't owe them. Ha, I feel so influenced. Plus it's not like I am going to stop buying once I got my hands on them. 

What do you think? $70 over is a bit too much for me to pay for the product but come to think of it, with 10 to 12 colours inside, it's pretty worth it and the colour combinations allow me to experiment with different looks. Well, if it's justified enough, it could very well be in my collections.

Let me update you if I ever get them :)

One Step at A Time

Hello there It has been a while, right? I used to treat this blog as a place for me to rant, talk about nonsensical things and interests that, when I think back about it, were pretty cringeworthy. But it was part of the process of me growing up and navigating through my life which is full of ups and downs, just like the tidal waves. I still need a form of outlet to write out my thoughts and I have been journaling for the last few years. At first, I was still writing nonsense, or simply writing about how my day went, but I try to make it a more conscious journalling where I will write about things that I can take lessons from or to reflect on. So how has life been for me? Well, I no longer am running an online shop where I used to do customised cards and then just specializing in box cards. I do want to have an online business, preferably one I don't have to travel to meet people.  If you read my last post about being zen, I think I have 'tripled' the amount of zen inside of...

Listen to Me

It kinda irks me when I am trying to express an opinion or sharing a piece of knowledge but it's met with strong objection or Im being cut half way before I even finished. I mean...come on...does it hurt to actually listen first, doesnt matter if u agree or not? Yes I know everyone is entitled to their own opinions but it's frustrating because I feel like a sore loser. That sort of conversation is actually begging to be turned into some huge argument if I am equally annoying and equally strong headed as well. But I dont want to do that especially if they are my friends. Then again, I am subjected to being called a wimp or somebody who cant stand up strong against what she believes in or her own opinions. That will sorta give the person a sense of pride for getting a landslide victory. At first I used to think that hey, maybe the person has a point and I am wrong. But come to think of it, that's bull! It's one thing not to argue and another thing to let ur own opinions b...

Not Gone from Good

Life hasn't been good lately especially in the last two weeks. The latest news is that it seems that almost everyone has an increase in their pay due to changes in the civil servant wage scale and very unfortunately, my group didn't get it. So my boss, whose post is that of a manager and the operations manager, have quite a significant salary rise.  I heard she got a 10% pay rise. 10%!!! look, even the attendants got a pay rise. What we got? nada! zilch! Why? Because apparently our salary is of a competitive range. Sigh, such is the unfairness of life. I'm already struggling as it is and then apparently now, the rich has become richer. The poor remains nothing but a destitute mess. So I guess the only chance for a pay rise is for me to be promoted and though I do not know how much pay rise will that be, at least it is going to be slightly better. The problem is that I have no clue when I will get promoted. I am not one of those people with many super ideas that will great...
