To be beautiful

I've always want to make myself become beautiful
and I've always want to learn something great
Then, I come across a post on Facebook, I personal message her and then the story begins.

I simply screenshot it and send it to my bestie - TzeChing
Then, she was like, Okay, let's go together la

Before 

So, here we are!
This is not a simple makeup lesson. They teach us from the very beginning of the skin care process.
This is because we have to know how to take care of our skin before applying any cosmetic on our face.
We learn to love our skin and to be the real beauty, not simply wanting to use cosmetic to cover up.

This is part of how the set-up of the products needed in front of us.
Do you notice the 4 new brushes on the bottom right?
yes, it actually just cost us RM30 to get 1 compact cheek brush, 1 retractable lip brush & 2 eye applicators.
For personal hygiene purpose, everyone is required to buy this but the rest are FREE...

She is the makeup teacher of the day - Min Teh, such a young and pretty lady yet highly skilled.

There are lots of ladies waiting to become prettier and more aware to skin care knowledge.

After

 Tadaa... this is the day-makeup that done by ourselves under the guidance of our consultant.

Let's compare the before and after. And, this is the magic of makeup!

 It is very important to remember that skin care process is so much important before applying any makeup. So it makes you a real beauty =)

The pretty pink lady on the right is our beauty consultant - Ivy. She is the sales director of Mary Kay, such a soft, patient and knowledgeable lady. We learnt lots of beauty stuff from her.

At the end of the 1st lesson, I got this duo-color crème lipstick from Ivy and only i realize I was the host because I recommended to my friend here.
oh yea, gift for 女主人 who bring her friend to join us in the lesson.
It was so surprise and I'm so much in love with this nicely package and beautiful pigmented lipstick.

Then, here goes my 2nd lesson on the following Sunday...

I had selected to be the model of the day. So yea, if you can see I'm sitting in front of the audience with our teacher, Min Teh.
This is a dinner makeup lesson.

 Mary Kay Skinvigorate Cleansing Brush

Before the lesson start, we are introduced to this amazing toy! haha... Mary Kay Skinvigorate Cleansing Brush
It is getting famous to hear people is using facial washing machine instead of hand in washing their face.
And, indeed, it not only helps us to do cleaning, but do massage to our face as well.
It brings many many benefits more, alright; I'm going to make a review on this soon.
And, if you get the chance to try it out, I believe you will get amazed too. haha

LOL... I know i look damn weird! the bi-polar of myself haha
alright, this is the makeup done by our teacher and I am required to complete the makeup on my own.
Holly! such a challenge to duplicate what my teacher work.

 This is how the eye part looks like. It is a more exaggerate makeup compare to previous lesson.

This beautiful lady is with me all the time. Thanks to her so much <3

This is the very first time I learn to use color and dare to apply so much color.
Then, it makes me realize it is actually very fun to play with color instead of keep using those so-called safe colors.
And, this is the first time I learnt to stick the fake eye lashes too! (though i don't really like such a heavy thing it is good to have the skill now)

Tadaa... this is the final look of the dinner makeup!

There is always a reason to get a gift. haha...
a small gift I get as a little reward by becoming the model of the day. ^_*

Last but not least,
here comes my last lesson in the 3-days-course on the following week - Bridal Makeup

 This time I'm more confident in applying color. and I think this is fun!

this bridal makeup was meant for photo shooting or wedding day which will be a long and tiring day so the makeup shall be thicker and more focus on doing the shading part and using two color of foundation to contour for dimension.

She is the model of the day. and look! how she transform to such a beautiful bride!
This is the magic of makeup!

These are all the ladies in white on the last day

 Oh yeah! so we complete the entire 3 lesson!

I am truly happy to have this opportunity to learn so many things and... it's freeeee!! lol
I believe every woman wish to become pretty
and I've learnt that we really need to learn how to love ourselves, take care of our look, and be confident.
For all the knowledge I had learnt I just can't wait to share with all my ladies around me.

Great experience in 2 Houses

Oh Hi! I'm back!
I'd been stayed in island previous week because I was joining the super awesome George Town Festival 2014
I'd involove in this theatre - 2 Houses, which come under sin-pen colony
*sin-pen colony is basically a pop-up festival-within-a-festival celebrating the shared heritage of Singapore and Penang.

2 Houses is a festival-commissioned, site-specific drama, performed by a cast of some of Malaysia and Singapore’s finest actors.

I was there as the Front of House (abbreviated FOH)
House is where the audience is. Our jobscope is simply making sure every guest make the registration, read the house rules and get all they needed before the show start.

This is the very first time i come across this term - FOH
honestly I get  so much worried before I met those awesome people in the production
and watch the drama which actually cost RM150 for every aundience to watch this.

2 houses - georgetwon 1941

When every guest is enjoying the prepared wine and refreshment, the show simply start without informed. The drama start with a pretty young lady on a vintage car enter the mansion and an elegant lady in red croons a haunting song telling a tale about two men who came from china and then became brother.
This is how the relatioship of these two family ties.
But then, the relationship diminished over time as one of the family grew rich by getting support and helping the British Colonial.

The 2 Houses set against the backdrop of the Second World War and Emergency years, the drama follows the loves, lives and losses of those that witnessed the birth of Penang’s identity.

Director:         Lim Yu-Beng
Writer:            Lim Yu-Beng
Producers:      Tan Kheng Hua, Joe Sidek and Pamela Ong

The audience is then invited to enter the Soonstead mansion, known as Heah Gate Mansion in the play.

They follow the character from room to room to witness the happening of the story. 

On 1941, when Japanese came and Penang is falling. British get their own people the boarding pass to run away. And so do the rich people is trying to get a place to send away their family and to protect their assets.

But he is so helpless when he has such a coward son who is not willing to go, then there is the time he needs help from the family he had been looking down on.

 The Act2 start again with the story telling by fanny. Then start the Emergency year.

Finally the japanese left and British is back. The little poor guy return with the status of lawyer of the Malayan Union.

The drama is a mixture of suspense, romance, relationship and family.
Being a site-specific production, it is so much different with conventional theatre.
It happen in an actual mansion, audience follow the charatcter with such a near distance, you feel yourselves involved in the story, hearing sound of wave when the singer singing the tale make you feel so much.

This is such an awesome opportunity to get to watch this show and get involve in the production, knowing so  many awesome people from singapore and other states.
I remember we were some sort of having a little culture shock there
But soon, we blend in very well  after a few days.
There are lots of serious-looking but lovely people.
