How Not to Repeat Clothes

well, i just thought about this earlier when i was choosing something to wear. i thought, if we’re not keeping track of what we’re wearing whether in a notepad or at some fashion website like closet couture, how do we know if we’re repeating the same clothes over and over again?

well, my solution is, right after you wear your clothes, dump them on the laundry bin, then when it’s washed already, hang it on the farthest end of your closet. that way you wouldn’t have the tendency to reach for it when you’re in a hurry to dress up.

hopefully by the time, it gets to be the next choice, you’d be pairing it with another item, so technically, you’re not really repeating clothes right?

so how do you make sure you don’t wear the same clothes all the time?

MAC Graphic Garden Preview

i saw this at Temptalia’s today. Sneak Peek of MAC Graphic Garden. Actually when i saw this, i’m not that excited. They look kinda boring to me. I just might get the brush palettes and maybe one of the eyeshadow sets.

I guess the hype is just the hype. I wish the roses were engraved on metal, it looks very flat from the picture.

well we’ll see right? what do you think?

How to Put Makeup on Men

Is your guy attending a play or some photoshoot that needs makeup. Well, who could put makeup better than his special someone right?

Well, anyway, let me give you some tips on putting makeup on guys.

What Brand of Makeup to Use?

Well, if you’re planning to do this regularly, it might be okay to use some makeupbrands really meant for guys. Just for the purpose of making them at ease like it’s really meant for them, and this does not in any way say they’re girls.

But if this is just a one time thing, then you could use regular girl’s makeup. Hey their face isn’t THAT different from ours anyway.

Which Makeup to Use?

1. Tinted Moisturiser – make sure to really match their face and neck

2. Concealer

3. Foundation – Just a little bit

4. Darker foundation or bronzer – for contouring, plus i think tanned men are sexier. peace!

5. Lip balm

6. Lipstick – choose something really close to their natural lipcolor.

Answer: Benefit Ms Behavin’ Lipstick
its dark color contrasts his pale white skin making him look more like a vampire. rawr!

7. Gloss – if the lipbalm didn’t make his lips a bit glossy yet you can add lipgloss. The objective here is to make the lips a bit more 3d than flat. We want dewy moist lips but nothing too glossy.

8. Finishing Powder or Blotting Bowder to remove the shine

9. Depending on the look he needs we could put some brown eyeshadow around the rim of his eyes, for that eyelined look.

10. Eyeliner will create a really dark look, so skip this if this is not the look that you’re going for.

Tips on Putting Makeup on Reluctant Men

1. Tie them up

haha i’m just kidding! but this could be your last resort. lol!

2. Don’t show them your entire makeup arsenal, they’ll run faster than you could spell men.

3. Tell them you’d be only putting the powder to absorb shine. What they don’t know they won’t know.

I’d try posting makeup looks for my guy friends soon. if they’d allow me that is. bye!
