Lunasol Water Gel Foundation Starts Me On My Journey To Asian Foundations

I’ve never really been a fan of Lunasol makeup, especially the eyeshadows. Sure they’re very pretty to look at it, but they’re usually too sheer and shimmery for my liking. Val suggested that I check out their foundations, and that was when I picked up the Water Gel Foundation on my trip to Malaysia. Little did I know she actually meant the cream foundation. Oh well, a gel foundie sounded good enough for my combination skin ๐Ÿ™‚

Q&A with Mama Beautyholic

What do you call your mother? Mum? Mummy? Ma? I call mine Mee. I have ever since I can remember. She said I was too lazy to call her Mummy so I shortened it to Mee. Incidentally, I call my dad Dee ๐Ÿ˜›

My mother was the one who started me on skincare at a young age. I was 11 years old when I started using Kao Biore and Clinique. Mum was an avid of Clinique back then, and she would hand me gift-with-purchase deluxe samples to use. She had the biggest dressing table I’ve seen (to my young eyes anyway), and it was always full with different types of beauty products and makeup.

For Mother’s Day, I thought it would be an interesting idea to do a little Q&A with her, on what her beauty regime was when she was young. Mee is a little shy about this, so do give her a warm welcome. Some sentences have been edited for clarity, but everything else was verbatim. My comments are in italics.

Over to you, Mama Beautyholic!

Fresh Minty Goodness with Illamasqua’s Nail Varnish in Nomad

Beauty bloggers are true enablers, I tell ya. We try our best to make you buy stuff. And that happens, we pat ourselves on the back on a job well done ๐Ÿ˜›

Sometimes, beauty bloggers enable each other too. Case in point: Illamasqua’s nail polish in Nomad. It’s part of the Human Fundamentalism collection, which launched last month. I saw several reviews of this stunning nail polish and I knew I just had to have it. Thanks to the 20% discount Illamasqua had last month, I snapped this up pronto.
