make up collection

I just came across this this this and this gorgeous photos of someone's makeup collection. one word 'WOWW!' *envy* amazing how she spent thousands dollar for her makeups. i think she had better be a make up artist or dealer as she fancied with makeups soo much.

I am not really a makeup person, i am lazy to groom myself from top to toe. but at times i enjoyed myself browsing some products like bronzers and blushers in Myers. the makeup demonstrations at Benefit booth are great though, definitely making us feel like buying!. isk sabar je laa..

Here is my not-really-collection of makeup and beauty products. I normally use one specific brand, not because I am allergic, but I don't have money to buy many. hehee.

1) [Facial wash, toner, lotion and mask]: I actually have an oily, blemish-prone skin, I've tried many product before... but none of them worked so well on my skin. i think Proactiv is the best so far.

2) Other treatments - [Sun Protection]: Girls, sun can damage your skin so beware. hehee. I use Olay complete defence with SPF30+. Like Proactiv, it has Benzoyl Peroxide, thats why I bought this. [Scrub]: Soothing Cleansing Scrub by Simple, actually the good one is Shiseido Pureness Scrub.. tp mahal maa.. -[Pimples treatment]: Clean and Clear Pimple Gel, Dalacin T and Differin (recommended by doctor but i rarely use them, too harsh for my skin)

3) [Foundation]: i use Loreal True Match to cover breakouts and lighten up the face color. [Compact powder]: Estee Lauder aeromatte compact, really love this product.

4) [Eyeliner]: I only fancy black color. I use Black Smudge by Estee Lauder and Black liner by Loreal. [Blusher]: Heather pink by TheBodyShop. I'd love to buy honey nectar blusher by Estee Lauder someday since it really suits my skin, or anybody here want to volunteer to buy for my bday next yr? ;P. [Eyeshadows]- not use them so often cz I have small eye lids. I owned a Christian Dior pallet which is came with 5 shades, also dark grey by Red Earth and purple by Fei.

5) [Pallet]: I prefer to use lip palettes, cz they are easy to be put in bag. I have Estee Lauder and Clinique pallet which contain most of my favorite colors. [Lipbalm] - normally i will put some lip balm before applying the lipstick, my favourite is Nivea. [LipScuff] - Sometimes I use lipscuff to scuff out the dead-skin layer on lips. I recommend you the lipscuff by TheBodyShop, cheap but it works perfect! [Lipstick] - I have a few, usually I bought some nude and dark pink. [Lipgloss]- Maybelline and MacFactor. I'd love to have Lancome tubes though! they look great.

My earliest memory is when i was 11 yrs old. I had an illegal date under my teacher’s table. Haahaha.

At school, I was an athlete. I used to win 100m, 200m, long jump, high jump, netball, handball and hockiey.

My first serious relationship was long, and I hope this would be the last.

I don’t like talking about future. I am afraid of facing my future.

My most treasured possessions are my loved ones.

My parents always told me that they miss me.

My most humiliating moment is a secret *blush*

My happiest moment is right now, I finished uni!

Friends say I am crazy.

At home I cook for hubby. At home in Malaysia I never cook.

My favourite gadget is my pink ipod shuffle.

I’m very bad at pujuk’ing hubby.

When I was a child I was very very dark. My brother told me that Mom and Dad found me tepi tong sampah sbb keling buang. Kejam tak?

The book that changed my life is the Holy Quran.

It’s not fashionable but I love to collect tops in a different style.

If only I could turn back time :(

My greatest fear is losing someone that I love and care about for ever.

I’m always asked about me to hubby.

If I wasn’t me, I’d like to be me with Jessica Alba’s body. hehhe.

At the moment, I’m watching my ikan2. I am going to miss them when I leave Sydney.

My worst job was as a cleaner on new year eve. I've earnt aud300 for a night but I worked like a buruh kasar from 3am to 7am.

I often wonder will i ever be an engineer?

perkahwinan abgku

Ingat dia yg paling lambat dpt jodoh sbb tkde org nak huahuaa. rupanya dia langkah bendul Yong jugak mcm angah. Eyh tk sangka abang atas aku, Nasrun Kamal Bin Mohd dh kawin dh! FYI isteri dia muda setahun dari saya, so kira adik ipar laa. aduss jatuh saham.

Actually aku tkde la kenal gila ngan Ila (wife dia) ni. Tapi jumpa masa balik aritu, kecik2 lembut2 sweet2 orgnya, cek mek kelate. Ila ckp dia sll kene buli ngan Nas ni. Biase aa abg aku tu bukannye betol sgt. Harap2 lepas dh kawin ni kurang la rempit dia :P

Majlis nikah nye was on 25th August kat rumah pengantin perempuan di Kelantan. Kelakar tak abg aku sampai 4 kali lafaz baru lepas. First two tu dia ckp kat aku dia tk paham dgn slang tok kadi suh dia wat ape. Pastu dia kata org sana nikah tkde jabat tgn ngan tok kadi, dia practice ngan abg sulung aku jabat tgn. Mak kata siap bleh dia gelak2 gurau2 ngan tok kadi. Ingat kawin main2 ape. Aduhaii abgku.. Patut bwk je g tabib mintak air penenang hati biar kurang degil sket.

Then after the nikah, diorang just ada majlis makan dan bergambar simple2 je, lagipun bukan budaya org sana kawin cm org kat Johor. Actually kalau org Johor (lelaki) kawin, selalu kitorg pun tk buat majlis besar2 sbb biasenye bersanding dan nikah kat rumah org perempuan. So, tunggu je la turn aku kawin, pergh mesti semua sanak saudara and org2 kampung nak dtg. huhuuhu

Majlis bersanding then was continued di rumahku di Pontian, Johor, on 9th August. Ade 2 separate majlis, malam berinai dan siangnya bersanding. Since Abah penah jd ketua kompang kampung, mmg tkkan miss laa berkompang masa malam berinai. Abah ckp buat kecil kecilan, ada cuma 1 balai je. Nih gambar my sis hantar, tggu berjanggut br nak hntar. huh.

1) Nas dgn mas kawin dia. Nampak baik sket sbb pakai baju melayu.

2) Uih senyumla sket, bukan kawin paksa. huhuu
3) Baju purple tu mak ngan abah, cm lepas gaduh je. hehee
4) Berkompang di malam berinai kat Johor. Pengantin ready for shooting lah ye.
5) Eh pakcik ni, org kg aku mmg terer silat tau jgn main2. Hidup pakcik Hairol!

6) Pengantin dgn mak ngan abah.
