Auld Lang Syne to another year and reflecting on the end of a decade

December 23, 2019 Paris B 13 Comments

Hello friends,

My year-end missive is a little early this year, I realize. But it comes at a time when many of us are taking time off for ourselves and winding down for the year.

This year, I’m taking that time for myself too.

year end musings 2019

I’ve noticed that people are saying that this year is the end of a decade (2009-2019) and that the New Year brings us into a new decade. While I don’t subscribe to that theory (I consider 2020 the end of the decade because I’m contrary like that 😛 ) I couldn’t help thinking that I might embrace it this time.

I’ve had a fairly challenging year, and decade, and truth be told, it hasn’t been what I expected it to be. If I were to sum my 2019 up in a word, it would be… hard LOL! 😛

Instead, I’d pick 2 words – Seizing Opportunities. Are you able to sum your year up in a word, or two? 🙂

If you don’t own the Hourglass Vanish Seamless Finish Foundation Brush, you don’t know what you’re missing out on!

December 19, 2019 Paris B 2 Comments

Can a girl have too many makeup brushes?

The answer, as it turns out, is Yes.

This is especially so, when you aren’t a makeup artist. What excuse do you have for owning 20 different foundation brushes, for example? I found none. So, I stopped cold turkey.

I stopped buying makeup brushes, and I stopped looking. I had enough, as my sizeable collection screamed at me from their storage drawers.

One day a year or so ago however, I chanced upon the Hourglass Vanish Seamless Finish Foundation Brush, and something about it made me buy it.

And I have not regretted it since! 😀

Allie Sunscreen is in Malaysia! Here’s my other favourite – the Allie Extra UV Gel SPF50+ PA++++ sunscreen

December 16, 2019 Paris B 16 Comments

I am often asked about the sunscreen I use. I am a big proponent of sunscreen as regulars are aware, and I have my staunch favourites. Basically, I don’t mess with the tried and true.

Ever since I fell out of love with the sunscreen I’d helped Shiseido sell (LOL!) I’ve been on the hunt for an alternative. I thought I’d found one in Anessa, but it turned out that I wasn’t as enamoured with it as I was with its more expensive counterpart.

But last year, I had my Hallelujah! moment! I found the sunscreen that I could use daily, that was comfortable and protected my skin, and that didn’t burn a hole in my wallet!

The snag was, it wasn’t available in Malaysia. Until now! 😀

Easy Eye Makeup Tip: Just 1 Eyeshadow, 1 Eyeliner, 1 Brush and 5 seconds of your time

December 12, 2019 Paris B 4 Comments

I have a confession.

I’ve become lazy at putting on makeup, in particular, eyeshadow. So often, I just go out with some concealer, brows, blush and a lipstick.

easy eyeshadow tips

Yet, sometimes, a hint of colour or definition around the eyes can make for a better look.

While I have not been the most creative person around when it comes to eyeshadow application, I had been a little more involved before this. But with a new lifestyle, comes a new approach to makeup.

And one day, I stumbled on a new technique of applying eyeshadow that involves just 3 items, and 5 seconds of your time. It doesn’t get better than that! 😀

Famous last words 😅 Can’t believe how tiny he was last CNY. I could make him do whatever I wanted. Now, he’s got a mind of his own and it’s “no treats, no work!” 🤪
It’s an unusual Chinese New Year this year. It’s the first time since I left home that I did not make an early morning drive home for CNY for the reunion dinner (I always do so to beat traffic). It’s the first time I’m spending CNY in KL. It’s the first time my hair is looking such a mess for CNY 😂
Regardless, we do this not for ourselves but for others so we can have more joyful CNY celebrations to come. 
Wishing all of you a Happy, healthy Chinese New Year filled with Ox-picious tidings 🧧 Gong Xi Fa Cai and enjoy the festive break! ❤️
Low key CNY celebrations this year. No need to dre Low key CNY celebrations this year. No need to dress up or put on makeup since we’re staying home, but I’ll be damned if I don’t smell like a million bucks from head to toe! 🥰
I never appreciated hair mists but the Chanel No. 5 Hair Mist is a nice, light way to enjoy the perfume. Who says you can only spray on your hair? 😬
What’s your CNY shaping up like?
