The Magic Brush

Here is one of the very rare post from me, the plain and boring engineer. Something about make-up. Ah well, the thought of making up to work everyday could practically freak me out! Or simply say, eat the right food for the right skin is like the worst advice I would take! (That explains the pimple face AND PRINGLES is JUST SITTING NEXT TO ME NOW!) *SLAP!* Now you know my excuses to remain lazy!

Back to reality, a plain face is good for sports and beach, a little highlight is good for coffee chat, shopping, work and etc, and not to forget.. out-standing for dinner dates, wedding dinner and party! Yes, a simple make-up does make a difference. A little art on the face can make a person look more presentable and beautiful!

What I've discover last weekend, make-up is an art! There are no definite rules and guidelines. The only guideline is to colour within the line! :) It is just like when we first learn to colour an apple! We colour the entire apple red. As we grow up, we then learn to add shadings to the apple, darker red on one side and lighter red on the other! We then move to the advance level, where we are able to make the apple looks 3D! It is all up to our creativity! Just like how we colour our life! There are no limit to creativity, the limit is our mind.

To produce a good art, we definitely need a good brush! Make-up is on the face, and face is the most delicate canvas. A hard or bad brush can hurt your face! After a good research, hard brushes hardly picks up colour compare to soft delicate brush. This means, most of your eye shadow will be stuck in the brush or drop somewhere else. Does that explains the many thick layer of eye shadow? The difference between the salon make up and make up at home? :) Good brush blends the colour nicely onto the skin and you can see a whoala effect! Get a good brush and be happy  with the results! And not to forget to clean your brushes! And clean them right! (Good tip for people with sensitive skin/ pimpled skin!)

Ah, not to forget my little best friend... the curler! It does make wonders to the lashes! *LOVE* It makes my little lashes so lively! This is a very friendly tool before and after your mascara!

After much practices, I think make-up is interesting! Do remember to clean them well before you go to sleep! Of course, there is no such thing as the best make-up or facial product, it is which product that suits your skin well! Be adventurous babes! Perfection comes with many trials and practices! Even Thomas Edison did not get it right on the first trial! >_@

Make-ups do not entirely covers imperfection!  But make-up makes the world more colourful!
