hey girls, why dont you try Aveda Mask, my sister had tried it before and it help to control the oil on the face. good luck!

There's also a shop in Ikano that sells Masquerade masks. I don't know what's the shop's name but they sell a lot of party stuffs, located on the LG floor I think. Happy hunting!

I read In Style US version, Harper's Bazaar and Female. Love them, like catalogues for me..

Hi Greenbeast, Definitely cheaper in France compared to Malaysia, though I am not sure by how much.. England is cheaper too! I bought a Minilin Speedy from London for around RM1900 (after VAT etc), while they are selling the same one here in Malaysia for RM2650. That's a lot of difference if you ask me. It's worth buying there if you happen to go there or if you have a friend who can get them for you.

Hi Miyako, Since you worked at a bra counter before, you should know the right way of putting on a bra. I remember when I was in form 1, a representative from Triumph International came to our school to teach us how to properly put on bras. I really didn't know the need to do it the right way until I left school (guess I'm a late bloomer )

Hi Kinkynun, Lashes from MAC or Shu Uemura is in the range of RM35 - RM 50 depending on the design really, those that come with diamantees or colors may cost more. Cheers!

For me, it's always about confidence babe!

Hi Eunice, the dress in the Flickr link you gave is nice, but I don't think wearing white to a wedding is a good idea. You don't want to steal the limelight from your cousin, the bride right? Maybe in different colors? Neon colors like teal, blue, yellow is in right now. Check out magazines like Harper's Bazaar or In Style. March issue features a lot of dresses especially those that are worn by celebrities to award shows. Just an idea. Hope it helps!

Hi Ingrid, Did you even read the whole content of Wen's post? It DOES harm other people if not yourself in one way or another. I also beg to differ on your sentiment that it damages the ego of a 'real-deal' carrier because they are not so special after all. To me, if I spot a girl carrying a fake handbag that looks just like my original piece, I would be very proud and flash it away as if saying 'hey, I can afford the real one and that means I have achieved something and celebrate it with this bag'. I do feel funny sometimes that other people would be so pathetic to get a fake one just because. It is also good that the value doesn't depreciate, that way you don't feel bad after owning it for some time. When I was in school and couldn't really afford a designer bag, I didn't really bother. Usually took me few months of school allowance to save up and I used it for makeup or something else more important. But now that I am capable of earning steady income, I splurge! Thanks Wen for bringing this up.. It's something I feel strongly about.

Hi Kinkynun, What a name... hehehe.. Anyway, I love faux/false/fake lashes... Without them, I don't feel as if my makeup is complete. I always go for either Shu Uemura or MAC lashes. For me, Shu Uemura's lashes are great for dramatic, party or 'crazy' looks and MAC has got more 'natural' lashes. If you go to the makeup counters and get them, the makeup artist should be able to show/teach you on how to apply the lashes. The first few attempts are always disappointing but after a few tries, you can get them on perfectly. It used to take me about 20 minutes to apply lashes but now, it's only about 5 minutes. If you get a good glue, it shouldn't give you allergy but I am no expert so I'm not promising anything. So far I've been using Shu Uemura's lash adhesive and they are great! Beware though, if you are not used to having false lashes, you may feel that your eyelids are a bit heavier.. Oh and you should apply your lashes after you curl your natural lashes, apply mascara and apply eyeliner. Here's a youtube link of tutorial on applying fake lashes

Hi Jenni, I visited the website and their collection is not bad at all. Especially the faux lashes.. You know what's the price range like?

Hi Shan2, a cocktail & a ball are both formal... But usually Cocktail party is a party where cocktails are served, like a little gathering before a dinner party. Whereas a ball is more formal where you have a sit-down-7-course dinner. To be on a safe side, look at the invitation card to the ball or cocktail that you are invited to and check the dress code. Some are not stated but the party title may give you ideas on how to dress up. For cocktail, a short decent dress is a good choice, and for ball, think about long dresses. Visit BCBG's website, may give you ideas on the difference. Hope that helps!

I totally agree with Cas.. The age difference between me and my husband is 16 years and we get along really well.. In fact, better than my previous relationship of about 3 years difference.

Hi Bheema, you may also try Biotherm (Not sure the range name but it's blue color)... I also recommend Loreal Pure zone (Cheaper option). I used to have very very oily skin and my skin tends to get breakout whenever I eat oily food or right before that time of the month, but since using Loreal, it has become better. Maybe you'd like to try that.. Share with us your experience.

Hi Steph, I suggest that you go to your favorite make up counter (for me, either Shu Uemure or MAC) and with the money you put aside for make up course, buy a complete set of make up and get their in-house make up artist to show you how to put them on... Some of them may not give you tricks or tips, you can always watch youtube for this... Like how to create smokey look, rainbow color or even dramatic ones. Most of the time, the make up course can buy you a whole set of make up and tools like brushes, curler etc... Just a suggestion. Hope that helps.

Hi Erny, expensive product doesn't guarantee effectiveness. I have been trying a lot of skin care products since I was about 14 (when I got my first breakout) and I tried Biotherm product range for oil/combination skin (blue color) and all my problem disappeared but my skin was still very oily but there was no more breakout.. This was at the age of 25.. then 2 years of using Biotherm, I changed to Loreal (which I stumbled upon when I ran out of moisturizer and I borrowed my little sister's moisturizer) and started using them.. I've been using them for 3 years now and no complaint at all. You see, Loreal for me is not expensive but it does work on my skin! And I met a very good looking Frenchwoman about 2 years ago, she was 46 years old then and has 3 children but her skin is so flawless.. I asked her what she used on her skin, she said Nivea Q10 since she was 25 years old or something like that.. She's gorgeous. It goes to show that expensive does not mean effective.

Double posting, sorry...

I am lost too! What's going on here? Are these people mentioned members of MYB?

Call them and ask... Sometimes they have promotion or packages which will be much cheaper.. I think they will re-open tomorrow and I think in the website they also have price list.. not sure though.

I check Kate Spade website. They are interesting! I have heard of Kate Spade before but somehow never really thought of buying anything from there. Now I am interested to get the cosmetic bag and see the wallet.. Maybe I'll buy one. But whereabout is Kate Spade outlet in Malaysia? anybody know?

Facial Cleanser: Loreal Pure Zone Toner: Loreal Pure Zone for Day (for oil control) and Loreal Revitalift for Night (Anti-aging) Moisturizer: same as toner Scrub: Elle Bache Rose (Smells good and has got dried Rose petal in it) Acne control:None (I don't have this problem anymore) Mask: Elle Bache Eye care: Bobbi Brown (got them free from a promotion they did, so far it's ok) Sunblock: Loreal Make-up remover: Body Shop or Loreal

And by the way, gentleman is not allowed in the spa. It's exclusively for women only.

Hi beautiful, Veqish Spa has got 2 outlets, one in Subang and another one in Damansara, I think. Do visit their website to learn more. http://www.veqish.com/ As for the charges, I took a package that comes with eyelash extension, around RM500 with touch ups. I think if eyebrow embroidery only, it should be around RM300. Call them to ask, they are all very friendly and helpful.

Eyebrow embroidery is not permanent, eyebrow tattoo is.. I did mine twice last year because they'd only last for about 5-6 months. It looks natural and I never regret it because I have very very thin eyebrow and without eyebrow pencil, they were almost non-existent! I used to spend a lot of time trying to get the right shape whenever I applied eyebrow color using pencil or powder. Nowadays, I just shave or pluck the stray hair around my eyebrow now and then and it takes me only 5 minutes to draw them pretty.. The embroidery makes it convenient for me so I can spend more time getting the right color for my eyeshadow. And oh yes, they don't smudge. BTW, I did mine at Veqish Spa in Subang Taipan and I am thinking of going back there after their long holiday to re-do my eyebrow.

Hi Happybaby, thanks for sharing that... How do you think I can get my hands on their product? You have any idea? Or maybe in Singapore since I'm going there next week... Thanks heaps!
